I don not want to use imessage at all. I turn it off in settings, but when I go to send a message, it is asking me once again to sign in with my apple id. Then it turns imessage back on, which I do not want.

I am trying to completely turn off imessage. Although I do turn it off in settings, under messages, and when I attempt to send a message it is asking me to input my apple id and will then proceed to turn imessage back on. Too many of my clients do not have apple products. Someone help!

When I attempt to send a message it is asking me to input my apple id and will then proceed to turn imessage back on.
That is because the iPad can only text using iMessage.

hi,
This thread is marked as Correct (Finished).
It is not even about iOS 6
You would be better off starting a new thread and stating how far along setting up an Apple ID you are.

Hello,
My sons old iPad 1 is rarely used, but, when i charged it up the message was; "iPad is disabled try again in 22,824,852 minutes" sorry but thats a bit of a wait!
I have gone through all the various reset methods but can't get around the disabled status??
Can't see another way to reset it.
Could it be for the bin.
Only wanted to give the youngest daughter the iPad to take to school.
Hope someone can help
Thanks
Jonny Burns.

Is this how you do it?
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

I'm trying to activate iMessage and ill sign in with my apple ID then when I put my email in and click next it goes back to the sign in

I jus got the fourth generation iPod touch and I'm trying to activate my iMessage when I put my apple ID in, it goes to the next step and says people will contact you by your email. Which would you like to use ? Then I'll enter my email and click next but it takes me right back to the first page where I have to sign in with my apple ID to activate it. This also happens with my FaceTime. Please help me figure out how to get it to work!! I've updated restarted everything!!

HT3529 I have just bought an iPad I have typed in email addresses into Contacts, but when I try to send a message most of them come up within red with an !. Then it will not let me send! This is sapping my confidence ! Please help if possible!

I have typed in email addresses into Contacts, but when I try to do an email, most of them have an exclamation mark and won't let me send! Where am I going wrong ? It is really sapping my confidence!

Did you set up your email account info in Settings?
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Accounts > your account should be listed in there with the appropriate incoming and outgoing mail servers and correct user names and passwords.

Installed OS 7, now message and FaceTime won't allow me to sign in with my Apple ID

I just installed iOS 7, now messages and FaceTime will not accept my Apple ID to log in, keeps saying check your network connection and try again. Network is there, I can get on line just fine...

And what happens when entering the Apple ID credentials?

I have an iPad air with Smart Cover. The Smart Cover switches off the ipad, but when it is lifted, the lock screen appears rather than just starting again

Depending on your Settings this is normal behavior. Check the Settings app as JimHdk suggested.

Is it possible that you or someone who knows your iCloud sign on went into the Find My iPhone app and erased your device via iCloud? Because that is what that message is saying.
Have you tried to sign on with your Apple ID and password?
Was it online prior to this incident happening?

I'm trying to use FaceTime but when I try to log in, the system tries to verify and gives me a number to call Apple to complete registration. Is there anything I can do?

I'm trying to use FaceTime from my IMac OS Version 10.8.5 but when I try to log in, the system tries to verify and gives me a number to call Apple to complete registration. Is there anything I can do?

There is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know.
If you're trying to sign in to FaceTime, try to sign in to iMessage in the Messages application, or vice versa.
Otherwise, do as the alert directs. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID"—not the hardware model—as the product you're asking about, and cite the "customer code" in the alert as the "validation code" when you speak to the Apple representative.

I am trying to change my email address for an Apple ID and it is saying that it is already in use. I then sign in with that Apple ID and it says that the account is not set up yet, I don't want to set up the account, but I do want to use the email address

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

Just to make sure, what exactly do you mean by "stacking photos" and what do you want to achieve thereby?

i changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password..
can anyone help me to solve this issue

i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating. I have been asking and no one knows what to do.

It says I did it but when I tried to check on my other Mac - an I Mac with 10.5.8, thedata does not seem to be there. I cant see photos, etc.. It shows the backup as a file and shows various system info. but there are no photos or other files shown.
Thanks for any advise.

A PowerPC Mac, if that's what it is, won't be able to see an Intel Mac's formatted data. Also ExFat formatting is not supported by 10.6.3 or earlier. I would try viewing the backup on another Intel Mac with at least 10.6.4. If it isn't there, then the backup never really took place. I much profer a hard drive with Carbon Copy Cloner.

I can't sign in with my apple ID in the iMessage

When I open the iMessage for the first time, it asks me to sign in with my apple ID and password but when I nter them, it tells me incorrect ID or password
and this problem is not only with me, it happened also to my sister's iPad

I assume you have tried all of the troubleshooting here?
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
It would also help to head to Settings -> General -> Date & Time and make sure it is set to Automatic. You could also try using Google's DNS servers as doing so has resolved the issue for a number of users. Head to Settings -> Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to. Scroll down to the DNS fields and enter in8.8.8.8and8.8.4.4.
