  • IPhone 4S - iMessage & FaceTime not working.

    My FaceTime and iMessages are not working. (iMessages show as "Not Delivered" and will not receive messages either.) Regular texts work fine though.
    FaceTime loads for ~ 1 second and D/Cs.
    I'm on the iPhone 4S (White). Verizon.
    I have done many things to try to fix it including:
    - Turn off/on Messages and FaceTime
    - Set Date/Time to automatic
    - Restart, reboot, hard reset device
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore new
    - Gone to a genuis at an Apple Retail Store (Irvine)
    I have yet to find a solution.

    Exact same issue -- except I'm with AT&T and I have an iPhone 4 not 4S.  Time to get a new phone?  I finally had to turn off the iMessaging feature just to send, reliably, text messages.  I have had some texts not sent for 45-60 minutes.  Most simply turn to "not delivered" after 15-20 minutes.  For a month or two now I have also noticed that my wife (we got our iPHone 4 on the same day) will receive group text messages seconds to minutes before me.  Sometimes 5-10 minutes before me.  I feel like the dope on those goofy commercials.  But we've got the same phone and we're sitting right next to each other.
    So.... for now I'm stuck with SMS-only texting.

    My iMessage doesn't work on my iPhone. It says sign in information is wrong but it's not?!

    There is an earlier thread that was answered by an Apple employee that states they are seeing the iMessage and Facetime servers are down. It is unknown when they will return, however it generally is not an extended period of time.

    Found the rootcause. The battery was damaged and unable to have enough power to keep the device alive. After changing the device problem is solved.

  • My apple ID is not working on my iPhone

    My Apple ID is not working on my iPhone.  Help! 

    It depends on how you set up your phone.  You can have different Apple IDs for different services; you ID for purchasing can be different that the one you use for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc.
    If you have only one ID for all of these and you have now changed it, you need to make these changes on your phone.  To change the ID you use for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores you go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores (or just Settings>Store in iOS 5), tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the changed ID and/or password.  To change the ID for iMessage you go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (or Settings>Messages>Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in with the changes.  Same for FaceTime by going to Settings>FaceTime.
    To a different ID for iCloud your go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your new ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.

  • IMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6

    iMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6
    It worked well before doing the latest update.
    iMessage on My iPhone 4 works fine after doing the same update.
    Have done all the usual things plugging into computer, complete shut down and reboot, nothing has worked.
    It keeps asking for password for Apple ID, I know I am entering the correct ID,  check network is also being displayed.
    Nothing wrong with my network either, other iPads and iPhones are working fine on the same network.
    Would like this fixed ASAP.
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • My imessage is not working at all is because when I send a message to my friend the bar of sending complete but it doesn't send what I can do please heeeeeelpppp !!!!!

    My imessage is not working at all is because when I send a message to my friend the bar of sending complete but it doesn't send what I can do please heeeeeelpppp !!!!!

    2-3 days ago, iMessage just stopped working on all my devices (2 iPads; 1 iPhone; 1 Mac), and it hasn't come back since. iPhone waiting for activation, the rest just don't send the messages.
    FaceTime and iCloud work fine.
    I really hope this is resolved soon, because I rely heavily on iMessage for the majority of my communications, and I need it back ASAP as I'm on holiday and out of my home country.

  • Imessage is not working for one person

    My imessage is not working for one person.
    Its been like this for about 2 days
    I have an iphone 5
    imessage is on
    both phones reset network settings,deleted and remade contact, etc.

    Does the other person have iMessage on, too? Is the specific phone number/address you are trying to reach them at show up for them in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive?

  • HT4623 My iMessage is not working what should I do?

    My iMessage is not working what should I do?

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

  • My iMessages won't work on my iPhone 5. Any help would be appreciated.

    As the title says, my imessages just wont work on my iphone 5. I have tried everything from a dfu restore, to turning imessages on and off, resetting network settings, turning off sending as sms, etc. etc. If I put my sim card into a friends iPhone 5, my iMessages activate and work right away.
    Every message I send seems to send as a text.
    iMessages in settings is activated and looks like its working but will only send as a sms. I cant receive iMessages either.
    My iphone is out of warranty and Im all out of options.  If this is a software problem, can I get a replacement iphone through apple as this is obviously not a hardware issue?
    Thanks. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I have restored as a new phone and it still doesnt work.
    As for creating a new Apple ID, Ive tried that and it doesnt work. It still defaults to my number and it wont allow to send an imessage as it reverts to SMS when I type in a contact in the messages app.
    I tried starting new conversations from the Apple ID as well but didnt have any luck.
    I believe its something that isnt getting wiped out through the restore process.
    I wish I could escalate my issue to someone who could look at the underlying code and see whats wrong with the phone
