Don't waste time with all of that crap....
Just update your date/time settings:
Settings
> General
>> Date & Time
>>> Set Automatically: Slide "ON"...If it's already on, then slide it off, chill for a bit (maybe restart it), then slide it back on.
I literally* just did this, saw a link for this thread, and figured i'd come see if it worked for you. Mine hasn't worked since early January and for a while I wasn't getting texts from some other iPhone users either.
I have an iPhone 4, but I assume it will still work for you. I also have iOS 5.1 (just updated after plugging into iTunes on my mac), so that may make a difference, but I think it's just a network thing. When you disable "Set Automatically" for time, I figure that you are also denying access to a part of the network that is necessary for iMessage.
**EDIT**
I also forgot to mention that, despite Apple's excluvisity, you still need to rely on an internet connection to use this little feature. After you activate, it will even have an option to send as a regular text (SMS) when iMessage isn't available (when there is no or very little internet). I'm assuming that sliding to "no" will just save the message until you connect again.

Problems with iMessage after update to iOS5

I installed the iOS5 on my iTouch and now I can't use iMessage. It keeps prompting me for my AppleID username or password, which it won't accept, even though I used iMessage prior to the update to iOS5! I rebooted and created a new password (even purchased a song to make sure AppleID worked, it did) and NOTHING!! Help! Any suggestions would be appreciated!

HT1589 problems with itunes after updating..can't locate some of my songs..some have an exclamation point beside them how do i get these songs back in my itunes

I'm having problems with itunes after updating. I've lost all my playlists,,finally played around with it and got the songs back but some have an exclamation point beside them and can't be located. they are songs i've purchased. I'm not very computer literate so this is a major problem. I have spent hours with this. I just want all my songs to play even though I'm not happy that I have to recreate my playlists. It would be so much easier if I knew and understood how to correct this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so..is there an easy way to correct it?

Not sure how this is an ipod touch question.
Perhaps you should post in the itunes forum.

Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

BlackBerry Q10 problems with contacts after OS .10.3 Upgrade

I need urgent help. I have serious problems with BBQ10 aftre 10.3 update.After upgrading to the new OS, my contacts became all messed up.
1 I now have doubles, triples, and quadruples of the same names in my contacts.
2. Many names and/or numbers have vanished.
Thanks in advance for your help and support.\

Due to the number of problems with "upgrading" to this OS level, I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader OS Reload:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
Good luck and let us know!

Problems with X3 after updating

Hi,
first, it is possible that I will use some wrong expressions because my phone language is actually German.
Last week I updated my phone from v6.11 to v8.4.
Before, I saved my files to the memory card, afterwards I restored them. It said "Settings reset" and there were the problems I will describe; I tried to restore again, but I could not choose the menu item "programs and games" now.
So, now
- all the themes and ringtones are gone
- the rest of my programs seems to be links named with with file type ".rms" which is "not supported" (All 4,0 MB and named chat_xxx, conv_xxx, isuite_xxx, mynokia_xxx or wocl_xxx), including the calculator which didn't leave a trace.
- my games are playable 'cause I saved them manually on my memory card - but the ones I added after I bought the phone don't work (message: invalid program. Delete?)
- I can't download a (special) program from ovi store (which I didn't try before the update, because of that I don't know if it's perhaps a problem of my provider) (message: certificate not on telephone or SIM)
- when I choose "All photos" it says "no photos to show", but I can open them over "contents -> memory card -> pictures". The camera saves the photos there, too, but it doesn't show them either.
I wonder now if it helps
- restoring the first backup again, but just "gallery files" and "programs and games" (which is chooseable again now) (this, I think, would not solve the problems with my memory games and the invalid file types of my games)
- making another backup and do the update again (will the first update then be chooseable again? I don't want to give up my programs, themes and ringtones... Can I restore them from the first backup and the rest from the second?
I would have tried the second possibility if I knew if it is possible... Please answer that, or, if you have a better solution, please give it to me.
Regards
Philip

Hi Philip,
If you still have this issue (and have not tried yet), try to reset your device by selecting Menu > Settings > Restore factory settings > Restore all.
And before restoring your backup check that all preloaded themes and ringing tones are working. Then try restoring apps and games from your backup again.
If some apps/games are not working after restore it's most probably because those are DRM protected and those you would need to reinstall.

Problem with iphone after update

Hey guys, I am having a bit of bother with my iphone. Basically i was given an iphone 3g and I'm not really sure where it came from but it had a vodafone sim, I am on an orange contract so i took out the vodafone sim and put the orange one in and to my surprise it worked, it has been working fine for months but tonight I decided to do an update on itunes and now it is telling me that the "sim card in this phone does not appear to be supported" and and my phone is stuck on a screen with the usb cord and the itunes logo telling me to connect it, also i can only make emergency calls. What on earth have i done? I no longer have the original sim so cant use that to activate it
Is there any way to fix this? I had no idea doing an update would cause this trouble and atm my phone is useless.
Any help would be very much appreciated,
Cheers
Tors,

The problem also appeared for some people after updating to 7.0, and for some after updating to 6.1.3, or 6.1.2, or to 5.1, 5.0, etc. and some first saw it without updating at all. Which argues against it being a software problem with 7.1 specifically.
Restore your phone using iTunes and set it up as a new phone. It you still have the problem it is a hardware failure.

Problem with screen after update

hello,
I have a BB Passport and I have a problem after the last software update OS 10.3.1.1565
- the screen is flashing when i go into an application... This happens randomly... not every time. First I had this problem with Evernote. I erased everything from my phone and I performed a full wipe (factory reset). The problem is not solved. now is happening more often... when I go to settings, when I open an app... and so on. Usualy is flashing white screen, but last night when I wanted to watch a video, it flashed green screen...
Is there a way to solve this problem? Is this a software problem? Or I have to replace my screen?

Problem with sound after update

Hello
After update to 11.3 I have no bass sound in subwoofer in Firefox browser (youtube). I uninstall the newest version and install previous (11.2) and bass plays ok.
My os: Windows 7 x64. Sound card Creative X-fi.

Hello!
My problem is summed up in this topic.
Updated Flash Player with 11.3 this morning (june 12th 2012) and since then my 7.1 Sound System works only 2.1. If i enable EAX Effects, works on 7.1 but since it`s just a room it sounds very odd.
I have no problem with sound on HTML 5 websites for that matter, Winamp, Video Players, games.
Uninstalled Flash Player, sounds work ok without it on different browsers, other than Chrome (since it has FP built in).
I hope for a sollution soon.
Thank you.
*edit*
Untill there is a permanent solution, i found a way to deal with my issue and i hope it will help others.
I personally use Chrome and this is for this browser:
1. Type "about:plugins" w/o the quotation in the navigation bar.
2. On the upper right u will see "Details" click it then find the word "flash", and you will see something like this:
Flash (3 files) - Version: 11,3,300,257
Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300
Name: Shockwave Flash
Description: Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300
Version: 11,3,300,257
3. I say again, this worked for me on Chrome. The 3 files i have, two of them are Version 11,3,300,257 and one is 11.2.31.144
4. Simply disable the lates version 11.3 and enable the previous version 11.2
I hope this helps.

Problem with sound after updating to ios 7.0.6

Help!
No sound whatsoever from the speaker after updating to ios 7.0.6.
Sound from earplugs & through dock OK.
I tried everything I found on the web, but nothing worked up till now.
Tips, anybody?

Hi singsingsarah,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Be sure to try all of these steps if you do not hear sound from your iPhone speakers:
If you do not hear sound from the built in speaker, try these steps:
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
