I'm having trouble with my imessage activation do i need credit

What do you mean do you need credit?
iMessage and FaceTime activation use hidden SMS messages directed to Apple's activation servers in the UK. If you are not using a supported carrier, or if your carrier is not aware that you have an iPhone, the messages may not be able to pass properly.
What country are you in and what carrier are you using?

  • I'm having trouble with my iMessages registration. Has anyone had any problems after they downloaded the mountain lion King with that iMessages because mine is not linking to the computer and my phone

    Is anyone else having trouble after thy downloaded Mountain lion x with iMessages mine isnt linking to my computer because it keeps saying i have a  registration error. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it

    HI,
    People who have had computer that has had the Logic/motherboard replaced during repair or refurbishment that has not has the Mac Serial Number Flashed to the board have found that iMessage in particular have not been able to "register".
    A current purchase of Mountain Lion will tend to give you the latest version which as of Thursday (12 th Mar) is OS X 10.8.3
    You can use System Information to find if the Serial Number is there as it appears under the Hardware section.
    If it is missing you need to get to an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider who can flash the info to the board.

  • HT3529 Is anyone having trouble with their iMessage since updating to iOS 6?

    Ever since I updated my phone to iOS 6 I have had trouble getting my iMessages to work. I have wifi signal but when I try to send an iMessage it will not send and I cannot recieve any either. I didn't have any trouble before I updated my OS. Does anyone have any idea's on how I can fix this? I've tried resetting my phone and removing and readding my email address in the Settings; General; Messages; Send & Recieve. That worked for a few hours then it stoped working again.
    I am stationed in Africa right now and I would use it all the time to stay in contact with my family back home.

    I have this same problem....was hoping maybe it was just my music library today so I could listen to some music but it happens with pandora too .....    Sure hope they send a fix quickly!

  • Having trouble with IMessage

    Having trouble with my imessage. In "send and recieve" it says No Address, my number is greyed out so i cant select it. I have tried resetting my settings, turning my imessage and phone on and off, clicked through and altered settings, recharged credit.. everything! Still no progress, someone PLEASE help!

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having similar problems.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

  • I am having trouble with iMessage being activated. It has worked up until yesterday and now won't activate and is saying no address in the send and receive section. My number is there but not ticked. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

  • I've been having trouble with in getting iMessage to send messages. I decided to connect to my VPN (along with wifi) and it worked. Why won't it work via my wifi connection alone?

  • My wife and I share apple id but have our own phones, and now having trouble with imessage

    My wife and I share apple id but have our own phones, and now having trouble with imessage. Sharing calenders, apps, music, contacts, etc...all great. But when we imessage each other. Our phones get confused and either not deliver message, or send it to and from itself.

    Go to Settings > Facetime and you will see "You can be reached for video calls at:"
    This should list your phone number (iPhone) and your email address (probably the gmail one).
    And then an option for "Add another email..."
    Choose that and enter your @me.com account and it'll send a verification email.
    Same for iMessage: Settings > Messages > "Receive at" > Add Another Email
    So you can be called by facetime and use iMessage through multiple email accounts yes.

  • I am having trouble with my FaceTime and imessage?

    I Am having trouble with my FaceTime. When I try to FaceTime some one I am getting no ringing and then I get a message saying lost connection try again. It has been like this since yesterday. I also tried to send a iMessage and it did not go. This is all new to me, has anyone had the same problem? Please help. Thank you.

    Turn FaceTime off in Settings>FaceTime>Off. Reboot your iPad. Turn FaceTime on again and see if it will work.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
