IPod imessage signout and now won't get past the "What phone number/email would you like to use screen" It just returns me to the sign in screen

I got home from college today and my imessage and facetime are both not working and are promting me to sign in again, however after sign in is complete and I click the next button after selecting my phone number and email it just returns me back to the sign in screen? It has been working for months and has just started this now. I've tried restarting and changing my DNS, hopping on another WiFi etc and can't seem to fix it.

Hi Rilean,
I understand that you are having some issues with activating iMessage on your iPod. I have an article for you that should be able to help you address these issues and troubleshoot a little further:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

I verified my email, then went to sign in and I can not get past the Sign In.

I need some help. I made an account and verified my email. I then went to sign-in and a box pops up saying I need to review my account. I go back to review it and it takes me to the support page. In other words... I can not get past the Sign In.

Thanks, Andrew for your help. Not sure if you will see this, but I did the above and it said the HD was okay. Rebooted it and still won't go past login page. Tried it again and this time typed in the line /sbin/fsck -fy and then it came up and said HD was okay, but said something about being modified. I once more rebooted, but it still won't get past the login screen. Besides taking long to reboot, as before, I am able to enter my password, but then it hangs up with the rainbow icon rotating continuously. Does this mean that the disk is corrupt or partially so, and if so, can you advise how I should proceed? TIA again.

While updating my ipod it crashed and now all I get is the apple logo on the screen.

I clicked on the update operating system that had a notification next to it. It downloaded for a long while then asked me to hook up to itunes. I didi and it said it was downloading again . Then updating. Then said update failed and now all that shows on the screen is the apple logo. Also
the ipod won't shut off. Please help.

I upgraded to 6.0 and now can't get past the Q/A screen to get to my inbox.

When I click on my Firefox desktop icon I go to a page that congratulates me for upgrading to 6.0. From there I cannot get to my email. I'm a technophobe and it's probably simple, but I don't
need that initial page anymore. I want access to my email!

I've got the same issue on two different iPhones. Mine, an original 8GB version and my wifw's, a newer 3G. I downloaded and installed 3.0 OS last night on mine and did same this morning for my wife's phone......both have the same issue....cannot initiate or respond to test messages....have to "clear" previous conversations before the keyboard allows message typing and sending....hard to agree with assessment that I need to retore to factory and reload on both sets because it didn't load properly the first time....a little too coincidental but I'll give it a try.

IMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. Started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup. I can get into safe mode. Tried install disc for disc utility and reloaded OS. Still get blue screen.

I have an older iMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. The other day I started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup.
I can get into safe mode. But no regular startup.
I tried disabling bluetooth, thinking that might be related. It didn't help.
I even tried using the install disc to run disc utility. That didn't work so I reloaded the OS.
But I still get hung on the blue screen when trying a normal startup.
All help would be appreciated.

Try resetting the PMU/SMU and PRAM/NVRAM. You'd need to identify the mode of resetting depending on the model of your G5 iMac. The Apple support sites that would help you for this are –

TS1139 I'm trying to process my first iPhoto order and I can't get past the fact it won't accept my telephone number. Thinking this may be a format glitch, I have tried to get around this but no success. Any suggestions? Yours in frustration:( CW

I'm trying to process my first iPhoto order and I can't get past the fact it won't accept my telephone number. Thinking this may be a format glitch, I have tried to get around this by spacing but no success. I live in Australia and the prefix is +61. Any suggestions welcome? Yours in frustration:( CW

Experiment - or search these forums - someone discovered a solution and it was a format issue
The US format for phone numbers is 10 digits AAA-PPP-NNNN - you do not include the 01+ here typically - maybe if you can out your digites in that format it will work
Hopefully someone from down under will tell how they do it

Macbook froze, now it won't get past the boot logo!

I was using my macbook tonight... using a bunch of programs, then all of a sudden everything just froze. I turned it off by holding the power button, then booted it back up... but it won't get past the apple logo and the circle just keeps moving round and round. I've never had any issues with it until today so I'm kind of surprised. Any ideas how to fix this?
I do have generic 3GB ram but it has never given me issues for the past 2 years. I also installed a WD blue scorpio 500GB hd a few months ago and I haven't had issues with that either.
PLEASE HELP!!

Hi I have been looking at this drive for myself and heard that some people are having issues.
I would suggest you try to boot again holding down the OPTION key this will show you all the drives connected and determine if you can see you WD. If so click and see. If not I suggest you put your OS X Install DVD in.
DO NOT INSTALL
Goto utilities and Disk Utility.
Can is see the drive there?
If so select the drive and then goto REPAIR DISK can also repair permission but this sounds like something else.
Resetting the PRAM may help, but I do not suspect this is part of that problem.
Good Luck!

My iPhone 4s (bought today) won't get past the activation screen. It says 'it may take a few minutes to activate your iPhone' and then skips to another screen saying 'activation failed - try again'. Any solutions?

Apple's activation server is down.
I called Apple and the support team had the same issue.
All you can do is be patient.

I updated my 4S iphone and now I am getting all the texts from another iPhone on my plan. How do I stop this?

I updated my 4S iPhone and now I am getting all the texts from another iPhone on my plan. What do I need to do?

I'm not completely clear on the GSM / LTE network frequencies in US vs Argentina, but I do know that cross-compatibility can be an issue when buying from one country and using in another. Apple products in particular have this problem. What this sounds like to me is that the phone is not compatible with Argentinian networks; or your friend had an AT&T phone and jail-broke it. This is against the end user licensing agreement, and when the phone is next updated is likely to jam the phone.
Sorry but you lost your money.
