My iMessage will not activate with my phone number when I recieved a new apple ID.

I made a new apple ID because my old one would not let me download any new apps from the app store.
Everything works great with my new appleID EXCEPT it will not let me use imessage with my phone number.
I have tried network resets, turning on/off the restrictions, everything.
Plus... if and when i get iMessage to verify with my phone number.. How do I connect my Macbook, iPad, and iPhone to all sync with my NEW apple ID and get my iMessage working on all three of them with my phone number?

Hi, uttam_june15.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I am not sure if you are unable to activate iMessage or that your phone number is not registering with iMessage. However, here are the troubleshooting articles that cover both scenarios.

My facetime and iMessage will not activate with my apple ID

Ever since I got the phone I can not activate facetime or iMessage on my iPhone 4S, Every time I try to activate in with my apple ID and password it says waiting for activation and when I try to sign in a message pops up and says could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again. It has nothing to do with the network connection because no matter what wi fi I am on it says the same message. Help Please!

I found the fix for the error. Took me a few different tries but I got it to work. You have to completely reset your phone (erase all content and settings) and set it as a, "new phone". I advise you to copy all the information that you want/need onto iCloud first. After I did this my facetime and imessage worked perfectly! Hope this helps.
On a side note as well your contacts won't be erased either but save them on iCloud just in case.

Imessage will not activate on Iphone 5, iOS 6.0.2.

Imessage will not activate on iphone 5, iOS 6.0.2. My apple ID and password are correct, and I have wifi. I try to log in and it says "could not sign in. please check your wireless connection and try again". Help!

You could try activating it while connected to a different wifi network. You could also see if your router has a firmware update available and changing your router's settings to use Google's public DNS to see if that helps (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using).

Your device has previously been hacked or jailbroken to unlock it for use on other carriers.

On Maverick my i cloud will not change the verification phone number even though I have change the phone number in apple and on contacts and restarted the computer. Help? I can't get the code necessary to fix the keychain.

On Maverick my i cloud will not change the verification phone number even though I have change the phone number in apple and on contacts and restarted the computer. Help? I can't get the code necessary to fix the keychain without it.

You can change the phone number the verification code is sent to from a device or Mac that has your iCloud keychain enabled as follows:
In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
In OS X Mavericks v10.9, choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
If you don't have access to a device or Mac with your iCloud keychain enabled, you'll have to contact Apple support to verify your identity and get assistance making the change: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

My iMessage will not activate, can someone help?

I have tried everything. I reset to factory settings, took sim out and put it back in, reset by pressing home and lock buttons, and turned the Automatic time sone on. Im dying without my imessage. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

i have solved this issue by restoring to ios 6.1.3 to my iphone 4s.
i tried every steps on this forum and google. then i found a way to activate imessage and facetime with following steps.
step 1: backup your device to itunes.
step 2: fresh restore your device with latest firmware.
step 3: while activating your device do not sign with your apple id-skip it.
step 4: let it activate your phone number first. start using iphone.
step 5: imessage and facetime will activate to your phone number.
step 6: restore you backup and you will see your phone number and apple id activated to imessage and facetime.
hope this will solve your problem.

Windows 8 will not activate with new SSD (second) hard drive

I added a new SSD drive in the second hard drive bay. I used the HP restoration media to install Windows 8 on the new SSD drive. Windows 8 will not activate. After spending 90 minutes on the phone with HP support (and paying $150), they told me to contact Microsoft. After spending some time with Microsoft, they told me that the Windows product key is being locked by HP, and there is nothing they can do.

Hi badgerbuzz,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

Imessage will not activate iOS8

okay so basically i've brought an iphone 6 on contract (vodafone) i wanted to keep my old number so i used their "keep my number" service online, ever since ive done that my imessage will not go through or any messages for that matter, imessage is stuck on the good old "waiting for activation" any tips? i have tried the reset all network option and i have tried to manually reboot it. nothing

I'm having the exact same issue but with 3... I don't think it's the network though. Mine were working no problem for me initially (before iOS8.1.1) and now they won't activate. From what I have read, this is a bug within the update and Apple need to fix this ASAP
