IMessage is not working in IOS 7 , Any workaround

iMessage is not working in IOS 7 , Any workaround

Yap, sad but true...
The most annoying problem, besides iMessage, is the keyboard, it's horrible on my iPhone 4 in Safari. Some on some formulars the keyboard is so **** slow that I had to stop typing after 2nd word.
But I could fix the iMessage Problem, first turn off iMsg, then you have to backup your Phone on your PC/Mac in iTunes, turn off auto sync when done and pull the phone off. Then go to the Phone settings and reset everything, then choose "set up as new device".
When done go to settings and activate iMsg and wait for activation, it will work! After you're done plug the phone back to your PC/Mac and restore from the Backup you made before. Now go to phone settings again and check if iMsg is on, if not (as it was in my case), turn it on and activate again, it will work now!!!
Attention: Apps and Music have to be resynced or downloaded after this, they are NOT part of the Backup.
This was what Apple tech. support told me to do and it worked fine.

  • IMessage is Activated but its Not working after ios 6.1.3(10B329) iPhone 4

    i update my iPhone 4 to ios 6.1.3(10B329) and i restore my backup and i synced my Transfered Purchases and i discovered that the iMessage is not working, i tried to re-activate the iMessage feature ,i Did but it still not working, i Contact Vodafone and they Told me that they have nothing to do and its Probably a Problem in apple server!
    Pls HELP!

    Both users need to have an active data connection, either wifi or cellular for iMessage to work. Also, both have to have iMessage activated. It is difficult for you to tell what is going on for the other user. However, you might want to try this to flush out any problems in the system. Go into Settings and disable iMessage. Reset the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, go back into Setting and activate iMessage. Try an iMessage after that.
    You can use this support document to troubleshoot iMessage activation http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268 and this one to troubleshoot iMessage usage. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755

  • Why is my iMessage and FaceTime not working with ios 7?

    I just updated my iphone 5 to ios 7 and it's not letting me use FaceTime or iMessage. It's saying it's still activating. I'm afraid if I reset I will lose everything, but is there any other way to fix it?

    Hi there,
    both services send a silent SMS (one that is not listed anywhere on your device) containing a configuration request to an Apple server. This server then responds with the needed configuration details. It can take some (from a few minutes to several hours) time for this answer to come. Also if for whatever reason text send/receive is not working properly, iOS can get stuck on the "waiting for activation" message.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

  • IMessage does not work after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 to my iPad 4

    iMessage does not work after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 on my iPad 4

    I Fixed it by trying to sign in with a different ID and canceling when it asked For a password and then signed in with my ID and it works! No more error message. I got this idea from another discussion. Thank you for replying though.

  • IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls

    iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......

    You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router.  If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone.  All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
    Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers.  I run my own for example for caching purposes.

  • Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Many, many thanks for both of you Todd and Rick.
    to Rick:
    I suppose you mean the Color Settings in Project Settings as follows:
    - Working Space: None
    - Match Legacy ... Gamma Adjustments checked ON
    But it does not correct the colors in effects. And checking or unchecking Make Movie/Output Module Settings/Color Management/Profile/Preserve RGB does not make any difference.
    to both of you:
    Those parts of the video image that does not have color effects are just fine. In these parts the color is preserved when reimporting to FCP. However, those parts having color effects (except Levels, as decribed earlier) have altered color results. So, only the parts having effects affecting color are misinterpreted in the image area. The mismatch is of course seen in AE, before making the movie.
    What I ment with "Color Management not working properly" is that (instead of "disabling" it) Color Management does not seem to be able to correct this "misinterpretation" or difference in effect handling between AE 6 and 10.
    So, would you have any solution for this problem?
    Again, many thanks for your fast replies!

  • Why iMessage is not working properly anymore since i've uploaded the new iOS 6 ??

    Why iMessage is not working properly anymore since i've uploaded the new iOS 6 ??

    I'm having the same problem. I have a 4th gen 32GB iPod Touch, and since upgrading to iOS6, iMessage has been nothing but buggy. It will work for an hour or so, and then randomly stop working as it won't send or receive messages. There's nothing wrong with my wifi, because that's the same as it was before. I really hope someone knows something to fox this problem. Some people use iMessage for good reasons - it needs to be a reliable messaging service like it was in iOS5.

    If you're expecting Apple to respond on this forum, you will have a long wait. This is a user-to-user technical support forum that is only hosted by Apple. This was made clear when you signed up. In any case, try the steps in this article to troubleshoot hardware issues (there is a camera section):

  • Help needed I updated my ipad2 with iOS5 but few of my dashbaords are not working now can any one let me know how to downgrade the OS

    Help needed I updated my ipad2 with iOS5 but few of my dashbaords (HTML5) are not working now ,can any one let me know how to downgrade the OS as we have a meeting coming up .. its urgent

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported. If you are using Safari this try clearing its cache via Settings > Safari.
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
