    I bought my iPad mini two weeks ago and used my apple ID to make it sync with my iPhone. But so far I have not been able to activate iMessage and face time. It only gives me the option of signing in and when I do that I get an error message telling me that either my user name or password for my email is incorrect; even though I have been using my correct my apple ID in the password entry area. My apple ID works for every thing else. Please, can you help in this case?

  • Unable to activate iMessage and FaceTime on my current number

    Hi all.
    I have an iPhone 5, I've changed from my Spanish SIM to my English SIM. Now keep getting the activation errors when I try to activate iMessage and FaceTime. It activates to my apple id emails, but my phone number appears dimmed and not ticked. I have tried all the methods I've found online: activating and disactivating, switching my iPhone on and off too, reseting, restoring, changing my apple id password, updating my old number under my apple id to my new one. Nothing has worked. Then I tried to send an iMessage to myself, and I discovered that my number that iMessage can be sent to is my old Spanish number, although the number that appeared under iMessage send and receive is my English one. So I have just tried my Spanish SIM. And iMessage and FaceTime have been activated instantly with my Spanish number. I dis activated again both and put back my English SIM. Now, if I try to activate iMessage and FaceTime, I still get the activation errors, but the number that appears dimmed and not ticked is my Spanish one.
    Quite annoying, and I can't seem to be able to find where the mistake is.
    Thank you for your help.

    Have you tried taking out the sim card and iMessaging using the phone on Wi-Fi only? If it still is an issue then the sim card has nothing to do with it and you would most likely have to do a wipe by Erasing all content and Settings.
    Since you had the phone unlocked and it was activated already with one number... In order to remove that number, so that it doesn't keep being an issue, is to do a full reset. This will allow you to go through the activation process again with the new number being selected for iMessaging if you set up the phone using cellular connection.
    I know this is most likely not the easy solution you were seeking but to be honest... Sometimes starting fresh is a good thing . Good luck sir!

  • I have problems to activate imessage and facetime on my iphone

    i have problems to activate imessage and facetime on my iphone, it doesnt work with my phone number, only with icloud and when somebody tries to contact me on facetime, it show them that im not connected, please help!

    Have you tried restarting the phone?  Hold both Home and Power buttons down until Apple logo appears and phone "reboots".
    And have you tried resetting Network Settings?
    Settings => General => Reset => Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re-enter Wifi Passwords but it might help you get to a more solid connection on your phone.

  • Phone number not showing up in imessage and FaceTime on ipad or mac mini

    I have the ipad, Iphone, and a mac mini. I am confused as to why my phone number is not showing up in imessage and facetime  on my mac mini and ipad. I had it set up but for some reason it is not working now, it just shows my apple sign in email address. How can I fix this?

    Hi, sarahr1987. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is a troubleshooting resources I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
    Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
    If your phone number isn't listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number still isn't listed, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and Settings > FaceTime.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.

  • Why can't I activate iMessage and FaceTime with phone number?

    Hi, I own an iPhone 4, recently I restored it and now I can't activate iMessage and FaceTime using my phone number.
    I read and performed all the steps shown in apple troubleshooting article about activating iMessage and FaceTime and that didn't work either.

    in settings where you have them turned on, does it say waiting for activation ?

  • I cannot activate iMessage and Facetime in my iPad and Macbook Pro

    Hi everyone,
    Last month, my iPad Air 3G (ran iOS 7.2) and my Macbook Pro (ran Yosemite OS 10.10), I could use iMessage and Facetime in both of them normally. But after upgrading iPad to 8.3, I can not sign in with my Apple ID on 2 devices anymore. It always has error: 'Could not sign in with your Apple ID. Please check your internet connection" when signing up in iPad and Macbook Pro.
    I tried many ways: reset network, reset device... with iPad but it didn't work. Please help me. Thanks a lot.
