IPhone 6 with iOS 8, AirDrop function will not work.
Hello,
I just bought my wife and I to new iPhone 6 with iOS 8.02 on them.
We have tried to use AirDrop multiple times but it will not work.
wi-Fi and Bluetooth are both enabled, and we have it set to discover are sent to everyone. No matter what we do the phones will not discover each other and will not send an airdrop photo or anything else to the other phones.
I am wondering if anyone else has run into this issue, if it is widespread are there is possibly something I am missing, however the procedure seems straightforward and it appears that it could be an iOS issue or something else going on. It should be noted however that some functions a Bluetooth work, such as connecting to Bluetooth speaker. But the iPhones will not discover one another and AirDrop simply will not work.
does anyone have any ideas on how I can resolve this issue .
any ideas are welcome and appreciated, thank you, Pete"Although my local Apple store told me face to face that I could not go back and restore to an older version of iOS, my cellular service suggested to save data to iCloud and restore to the store's original iOS 7."
Okay, so I couldn't go back to the factory iOS 7 as the Apple store employee told me. Drat! Note to self, do not automatically update iPhone first thing if it's already working! -
i did everything the help window told me to,reset the iphone,turn it off and back on,turn of my mac,reset the phone ebverything but is not working anybody help me out plz!!!

Hi i use iphone 4 with iso 6.1.3!! Am not getting an option to register my phone number in imsg!! Am just getting an option to set my email address for sending and receiving the imsgs!! How do i register my phone number??
Hello Nikkii,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
Troubleshooting telephone-number activation (iPhone only)
After each step, toggle FaceTime and iMessage off and then on in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Ensure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: If Set Automatically is on but the incorrect time zone is displayed, turn Set Automatically off and then choose the correct time zone, date, and time. Then turn Set Automatically on again.
Ensure that FaceTime has not been restricted: Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
Verify that you can send SMS messages. You need a valid SMS messaging plan to activate FaceTime.
Contact your carrier to verify that there are no restrictions or blocks on text messages. Blocks on text messaging will prevent iMessage and FaceTime registration.
If you are unable to activate iMessage or FaceTime on a device after remote wiping it, wait at least 24 hours and try again.
If "Waiting for Activation" is displayed, leave FaceTime and iMessage enabled for 24 hours. Toggling FaceTime or iMessage off and on will cause the registration process to start over.
Best of luck,

iphone 4s with ios 8.1.1, imessage gets slower than ever, sometimes even deliver after 10 min, was not like this with the previous ios, how can I improve imessage sending time?
Hi there skmonirul,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From what I gather, iMessages are taking longer than expected to send on your iPhone 4s. If you aren’t seeing issues with other apps, try restarting your iPhone as shown here:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If the issue persists, try restoring your iPhone as shown in the article below.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
So long,

Imessage not working with iphone
imessage not working.. any suggestions?
A phone reset or going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings resolves the issue.
iOS7.0.3 will be available next week that resolves this issue. -
Iphone 5 doesnt accept ID password, facetime and imessage not working,
Im not sure if its to do with the new update 6.1.4 but my imessage suddenly stopped working. I checked my settings and saw that my email addresses associated with it were deleted. I would do hard resets but it wouldnt solve the problem. Then imessage was only partially working, sending imessages to certain individuals and text messages to the others. When i would try to add my email it would say that my password or ID is incorrect. I was thinking, no this could not be. I signed in and out of Itunes with no problem. I even signed on appleid.com and it worked. I tried it on my ipad which worked.
I was scratching my brains. so I had an idea,
I proceeded to reset network settings......BIG MISTAKE!!!
Now, along with my imessage and facetime problems, I cannot connect to my wifi at home. when I enter the password it says it is incorrect. I have also tried entering the wifi manually but to no avail.
I connected my iphone to itunes but it wont back up my data saying an error occured but it doesnt specify the error.
Iv also noticed that if i press and hold an app, and it starts shaking, the crosses next to the apps that I hav purchased whether it is free or not does not show the 'x' next to them so I cant manually delete an app.
What is going on? Is so frustrating because now I have to rely on my data and its depleting fast.
Iv booked an appointment with the Genius bar for next week but I am hoping I can sort this out before hand.
My first iphone and I was enjoying it up to now, not happy at all!Exact same issues here.
No, resetting iPhone via sleep/wake & home button does not work.
I also reset network settings and now cannot connect to wifi, says password incorrect , when it is not. IPad, other iPhones are connecting fine to the network so that is not the problem. Entered wifi settings manually and tried every possible Security setting. Even tried entering my network under " other" in choose a network and put name of my network exactly as it is and it says it can't find that network.
Just in case you're thinking to say, go to wifi and select " forget this network " , the option to do that is not even there, so that is a no go .
iMessage and FaceTime keep saying incorrect password , when it is not.
I know what I am doing with Apple products and have never had a problem I could not fix myself until now. -

My iPhone six with iOS 8.1.1 will not allow me to upload credit card data to Apple pay
My iPhone six with iOS 8.1.1 will not allow me to add credit card data to Apple pay. It does not recognize my credit card in iTunes. I have I have set location to the United States, and restarted. Still nothing. When I enter the passbook app, hit the plus button, select set up Apple pay, select add new credit card,I get no response when trying to add credit card number expiration date etc., nor does the camera feature work. Bottom line is to date, I cannot add any credit card data at all.

I am guessing there is something about your situation that occurred outside the U.S. Perhaps you purchased your iPhone outside the U.S., or live outside the U.S., ...
At the moment, Apple Pay only works in the U.S. -
Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number
Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message
Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/
