Is anyone elses iMessage not working?

After extolling the virtues of how imessage is amazing in allowing me to keep in touch with my wife whilst I am serving in Afghanistan it would now appear that my praise has come too soon. No matter what I do I can not connect to to imessage. I sign in with my apple id but when I try and verify my address the sign in box keeps appearing.
Very very frustrating. Is anyone else having dificulties?
ok. so now my address has been verified but when i try and add a recipient i get an exclamation mark informing me that the recipient isnt registered with imessage. have even tried to send a message to myself with the same result.

Apple reportes:
System Status
Current
All services are online.

  • Anyone Elses gparted not working?

    Alright so I just recently ran an update and noticed that gparted was updated. Then I wanted to play with my disks and recieved this error while trying to execute gparted:
    [tyler@myhost ~]$ sudo gparted
    No protocol specified
    (gpartedbin:5750): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
    I've tried just about EVERYTHING to try and get it to work and I'm pointing at the update that possibily broke it?
    Are you guys have the save issue?

    How exactly is that supposed to help him where sudo doesn't work?
    it would help because the default sudo configuration doesn't share any environment variables. gksu/gksudo is supposed to be used to run graphical applications as root.

  • IMessage not working even after 'fix'

    My iMessage on my iPhone 4 is not working. Phone is updated to most recent update. Sends iMessages to some people but not others and the people who I cannot send to also can't send to me, regardless of being on wifi or mobile network. I have tried the turn off imessage, reset network settings etc but still no improvement. Would be very helpful if anyone could give me some advice?

    Macrumors posted a solution for this.  I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
    Here's what they said:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

  • 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.

  • IMessage not working with some contacts

    I have ipad2, iMessage not working with contacts except between my son and my iPad.  Get a red exclamation mark and send button is greyed out.  Have rebooted, reactivated apple id and email address.  Running latest software. Can anyone help please.

    Imessage only works to other folks who have a device on ios5, and who have activated i message.  In their set up, theyndeclared one or more specific 'receive at' addresses.  Are the folks you are trying to reach on apple devices with i mesage?  The red exclamation means, i think, that the apple server did not find that address as registered.

  • 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/

    Hey Mgpr,

  • IMessage not working on new Macbook Pro.

    iMessage not working on new Macbook Pro. Issue began after I downloaded latest version of Mountain Lion.  After every message it says delivered then immediately a red circle with exclamation point says message not delivered.  Any ideas?

    I can also no longer text on my computer or iPad.  Fine on iPhone.  Same as you - I can see everything up until a specific day.  But I didn't do any kind of update where it should have stopped.  And it stopped working on my computer and iPad at the same time.

  • Imessage not working on my iphone4s

  • IMessage not working on 5S and iPad Air issues

    iMessage not working on 5S. Had 3 online chats with apple support but still not fixed. iPad air issues also; safari shuts down a lot on mine and my husbands iMessage not working. iMessage works on his 5S. Never had so many issues with Apple before. I receive SMS messages on 5S but no iMessage. It was suggested to me that I get a new sim or try another wifi, both seem odd given everything else works.
    My husband and I got our phones the same day, his works right, mine doesn't.
    iPad airs were purchased a month apart, mine works ok apart from safari shutdowns and his iMessage not working.
    Also the slider to answer calls on both phones not always working. Had to reboot one of them and it forced us to set it up again from scratch.
    Any ideas?

    restore from backup or restore as new.
