Login problems with facetime and Imessage

I have IPAD 2 upgraded to IOS 6.0. I am living at Alexandria EGYPT.
I didn't face any problem with both apps until the 2nd of October 2012. Since then and both apps telling me that Apple ID doesn't match with the entered password. The same password is used for app store and working with no problem, the password have been used even to log in to the support as well as Icloud.
I have tried the following actions with no result:
1- Soft reset the IPAD.
2- Time is set to automatic.
3- Set the time to USA.
4- Time set back to auto.
5- Connect using different WiFi networks.
I hope I can find a solution, I am using both apps to keep in touch with my family.

I did a total reset and start the IPAD as a new one before restore...same problem exist
after restore try again and with the same problem...
Finally I have created a new apple ID and used it only for facetime and imessages...and it works....
I can't really understand the problem....
It is not a problem with communication or IPAD settings because it worked with another apple ID
it is not a problem with server or account because I am still using my old ID with my macbook
strange

Problems with FaceTime and iMessage

My iPad mini isn't letting me log into iMessage or FaceTime. It asks for my Apple ID and I enter it but then it says "an error occurred during activation. Please try again." I'm getting very stressed and I really don't want to get a whole new device. Please help!!!

Problem with Facetime and my MacBookPro camera

Hello,
I've got a MacBookPro and I have a problem with Facetime and my front camera.
When I have a discussion with an iMac or an other MacBook the image received by the other person becomes fix.
To unfix it I have to put my finger on my camera and then everything is good until the next time, 4 to 10 seconds later I've got the problem again.
Perhaps somebody can help me.
My head on my screen is always good even when the bug appear on my correspondent's screen.
For information, the 2 mac have the same iOS version (OSX Lion) and Facetime version.

Hi Dave,
Edit: Well, I guess I was lost when I posted this. My answer was regarding a problem with OS X, not iOS. I'm going to leave the answer here in case someone else with a Facetime for Mac issue can benefit, because when you're searching for "Facetime AND Login", you could land in any discussion area. -Jerry
Keychain Access.app is in your Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
The path will be: Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access.app.
Keychain is where all your passwords are stored for those applications that you don't want to have to manually log into all the time.
It's a handy app to become familiar with, for instance if you want to look up a password or user name from the past.
Hope this helps you.

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??

I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

HT204053 I got an incorrect apple ID or password with FaceTime and iMessage why?

I got an incorrect apple ID or password with FaceTime and iMessage however not with iCloud why?

Yes, I am using the same ID on both devices. I also logged out of the iTunes application and back in but still get this same message. "The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect. Plese try again."
I have another subscription with Admin Magazine that appears to use the same interface and it was able to restore my purchases.

Problems with FaceTime and Time Capsule?

I was wondering if anyone who uses Time Capsule for their WiFi router has ever experienced any problems with FaceTime? I use that as my router out of state, and when placing calls to my Mom, she has a LinkSys router. Every time I go to try a FaceTime call, the sound is spotty, and then the call eventually craps out. However, Skype works just fine. During a recent visit to her home, I tried a FaceTime call and it worked just fine, which led me to wonder if it had anything to do with us having separate routers, or if it's a strength of the Internet connection signal? Was just curious if anyone else had similar issues? Thank you in advance!

Sounds like a Internet connection problem to me, probably too slow.
You can try identifing the more problematic router/Internet connection by FaceTime calling a iPhone on a 3rd Wi-Fi network. If it works from your location but not your mom's, then your mom's router or Internet connection is the problem. You can further narrow it down by switching routers after finding the location that has the problem.
You can check the speed of the Internet connect and make sure the wireless router is updated and configured correctly.
WTH.

IOS 7.1 Update problems with text and imessage

SInce I did the latest updates I've had problems with my text and iMessage. First I've never used iMessage in the past and always got my text messages and sent text just fine. Now it seems at though I can only have one or the other. If I have friends using iMessage and I have my iMesage turned off they wont get my message and if I have my iMessage turned on and I send to someone with and android they wont get my message either. It's like it can't figure out if it's and iMessage or a normal text. I have it set to send as SMS when iMessage is unavailbe but it doesnt sent as a text message.
So at this point I wont be ablet to get my messages from both iMessges and SMS..
Anyone else have this problems.

IOS 7 problems with FaceTime and messages apps.

Need resolution on why FaceTime and message apps are not accepting my password after loading ios 7.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Problems with facetime and jazztel

I have a lot of problems if i want to activate facetime in my iphone. I have Jazztel (spanish company) and when i want to activate it, i just can do it with my personal email, but when i want to do it with my phone number, i just dont recieve the message. Please, help me with this.

Jazztel is not a supported carrier. Facetime uses a silent SMS message to contact Apple's servers and activate using your phone number. All supported carriers will permit this message to pass and will not charge for it.
If your plan does not include international messaging, then the message will not be able to reach Apple's servers in the UK and activate facetime with your phone number. If you DO have a plan that allows international messaging, you are going to be charged for those messages.
To avoid problems and charges, switch to a supported carrier. There are 4 supported carriers in Spain: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Login problems with SMTP and WebMail

Hello- hoping I can get some help on this one.
I have a OS X (10.4.8) Server running a website, email, and file services (AFP only). Everything seems to be working well, except for SMTP. I have set up mail services to use CRAM-MD5 authentication for IMAP/POP and SMTP, but I can only log in to IMAP. SMTP gives a "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Please make sure the username and password are correct." (using the Connection Doctor feature in Mail). If I use WebMail, I simply get a "Login Failure" message.
I know for a fact the ID & password are correct; I have tried several different accounts and setups, but none seem to work. I can log into AFP services using the same id/pw just fine.
Any ideas where I should look to fix this issue?

Open terminal and issue:
sudo /usr/share/squirrelmail/config/conf.pl
Configure SquirrelMail to your liking and make sure server settings reflect your requirements for authentication.

HT204380 Hi some one can help me? I have a iPhone 4, FaceTime and iMessage never activate? I did all what the page says! Thanks!!

Problems with FaceTime and iMessage, not activateD

Are you using a supported carrier? See this list for supported carriers: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
FaceTime/iMessage use SMS messages sent to Apple's servers in the UK. If you are using a supported carrier and your account is properly provisioned for an iPhone, you should have no problem. If you are using an unsupported carrier, they may be blocking the international text message used for activation.
