  • Cannot connect to Facetime on my iMac - message says error occured in server, please try later

    When I open Facetime, it asks me to fill in my password. Then it says an error occured in the server and I should try later... It has been going on for days.
    If anyone can help. Thank you.

    Hi!
    Im sorry for my english! Is very poor...
    I recommend you this things:
    1. Check "Time and Date" from "System Preferences" (Click the apple in the status bar, and go to it) and be sure is in automatic location everything.
    2. Check your serial number appear: Go to apple again, and click on "about this mac" and now click on "More" or "more information" (I dont know how appears in english).
    If your serial number dont appear, contact the technich support by call.
    3 Try to fix permissions:
    Go to "Disk Utility in Applications> Utilities, select your Hard Disk, and chose "Repair Disk Permissions" from the "First Aid" tab
    Now, try again:
    Open terminal, and write directly:
                   "sudo pico /private/etc/hosts"  and press INTRO key
    (Between the words "sudo" "pico" and "/" must be a space).
    Then write the password, and press again INTRO key.
    It must be appear the same window wich is in your image, but on the top, it must be "GNU Nano....File: /private/etc/hosts". Its mean that you are in this file, and not in another one.
    If it isn´t like that, its mean that the problem is another one, and I´m so sorry, but I can´t help you

  • I cannot connect to FaceTime, encountered "error processing registration, please try later" message on my Macbook Air, but I don't have this problem on my IMac. Can anyone help?

    I have the same problem on my iMac. My facetime has been working, but now I'm getting the same error as You. I've been through the following:
    The stuff that Linc Davis suggested, new profile on iMac, moved iMac into DMZ zone with no firewall rules, tested with other Apple-ID, checked hosts file, checked different timezone settings, tried to connect to 2 mobile APs (with diferent providors), changed DNS servers (ISP's DNS + Google DNS + Open DNS) - Nothing helped. Also talked to Apple Support, since i have Apple Care, but the seem to be a bit clueless also Well I've mailed them the results of my different tests, so lets see what they come up with - Unfortunately I'm sure it will be the same suggestion as all the major PC manufactures suggests, reinstall and test - RIGHT !!!!!!
    If I get solution, I'll post it here.
    Kind Regards

  • My PC can connect to the airport extreme but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues, any help.

    My PC can connect to the new airport extreme I just purchased but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues.  If I open the airport exteme up and provide no security everything is fine which leads me to believe it is something with the encryption between the two devices.  Not sure what step I'm missing here this shouldn't be this difficult.

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I am asking if the DNS IP addresses, not the IP addresses assigned by the DHCP service, are the same. DNS is like the Internet's version of the Yellow Pages. Your ISP typically will provide them to you or you can elect to use those provided by another source, like OpenDNS.
    DNS is the service that translates a website's URL to its actual IP address so that you can access it. I am just trying to rule out that the PC is not configured properly with the correct DNS IP information.
    The other thing to check is if the PC is configured to use a Proxy service. By default, it would not be.
    Finally, what is the make & model of the PC. More importantly, if the PC is using either a PCI or USB wireless adapter, what is its make & model?

  • FaceTime cannot connect with my Apple ID or make a new connection.

    I have a problem with Facetime on my MacBook Pro. It shows my camera okay, but cannot connect with my Apple ID or make a new connection. Just get an error message that reads "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." But I'm still connected to the internet and I can still access the iTunes Store with my Apple ID. Any ideas?

    Yes Susan,
    I changed my DNS settings to 8.8.8.8 and was then able to sign in to Facetime using my Apple ID. Apple then sent me an email verifying my email address, and all was good. I then changed my DNS settings back to normal and Facetime works completely fine.
    You can find your DNS Settings in your Network Preferences, then click Advanced at the bottom right, then click on DNS from the tabs at the top.
    Hope that helps

  • ITunes cannot connect with this iPad Error/iOS 5 problem

    It appears that ever since upgrading to iOS 5 and opting to sync my first gen iPad wirelessly, I have been receiving an error message each morning stating "iTunes cannot connect with this iPad..."
    The wireless sync capability works fine, I plug my iPad into the wall when I come home, and it starts pushing and pulling all the new apps that I've downloaded in the day.
    It appears that iTunes is will regularly try to connect with the iPad while it is charging. At some point during the evenings, either my iPad will be asleep or my iMac will be asleep. I think this is where the connection problem is arising.
    Does anyone know how to change iTunes' frequency of wireless sync to a device that it is wirelessly connected to? Ideally, I'd like it to only sync wirelessly once when I plug the iPad into the wall.

  • My 4th gen. shuffle keeps on sending me an error message that it cannot connect with iTunes because it's not formatted properly.

    Hi,
    About two days ago my shuffle started to send me an error message that it cannot connect with iTunes because it's not formated properly.
    So I've already updated the softwer, I tried to use it with every single USB port on my computer and searched for solutions on the net but couldn't find any useful information...
    I literally see the following message: The iPod "194" cannot be used with iTunes because it is not formatted properly.
    Any ideas?....
    Thank you!

    If you cannot access the iPad because of the passcode, you have no choice but to restore it using the same steps that you would use if you forgot the passcode.

  • The clock on my ipad seems to be stuck? Could this have anything to do with my not being able to connect with FaceTime ?

    The clock on my iPad seems to be stuck ? Could this have anything to do with me not being able to connect with FaceTime ?

    In order to backup to iCloud the iPad must be plugged into a power source, connected to WiFi and locked - meaning that it must be asleep - or with the lock screen only visible. This is for automatic backups.
    If the iPad is not responding at all to any user input, try restarting it or resetting it and see if you can take the steps necessary to back up. You can initiate the backup manually as well.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • When connecting with FaceTime, I see other people then they hang up.

    When connecting with FaceTime, I see other people then they hang up.  Has anyone one else encountered this?
    Usually, my wife contacts me with facetime, I try to accept connection and she sees other people form another country that quickly hang up.
    This happens often.
    Thanks

    This seems to happen with the Iphone 5s if I am not mistaken
