Push notification won't work...

Guys I am just loosing my mind over this issue. Maybe you can shed some light on the matter. I have a fresh install of 10.6.1 Snow Leopard on a bran new Xserve. For some reason I can not get Push notification to work. Below I am going to add as much information as I can to allow you very gracious experts out there to hopefully identify what the issue is:
*Current running Services:*
Address Book
AFP
DNS
iCal
Open Directory
Push Notification
SMB
Web
Clients are both on the inside and on the outside of the network. Port 8443 is punched through on the firewall to one of the two NICs on the Xserve. Our network is made up of three zones on a SmoothWall firewall: Red is public IP, Orange is 192.168.1.xxx, and Green is 192.168.0.xxx. The server exists on both the Orange and the Green with 192.168.1.3 and 192.168.0.3. The symptom shows up even if I disable the Orange NIC and punch through to the green and also shows up on both internal clients and external clients.
The clients do see the ability to choose the Push option in the client iCal settings but it just doesn't work. The only way to see changes in the calendar events is to manually refresh the calendar.
Now for the weird logs:
*Here is a concerning part of the error log of the iCal service:*

*Under the configured services for Push Notification:*
xserve.xxxxxxxxx.com iCal
*Under the Push Notification setting for the Settings window for iCal:*
Push Notification: xserve.local
*Now I know that if I'm running an iCal server on the same server as DNS then I should have the fully qualified address under the Push Notification setting, but it won't freaking change to xserve.xxxxxxxxxx.com. I know it doesn't make sense but no matter what I put in that field it always goes back to xserve.local. I have gone over my DNS settings and everything seems correct.*
I know this is long and tedious to read but I really appreciate any help...I promised this functionality and my neck is on the line unless I deliver.
Thanks,

Hi Brian,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone and other devices not being able to make or receive phone calls I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

My wifi button has been dimmed out for 4 months and only just recently my push notifications havent been working.
My phone has been updated to the iOS 7.1
and no changes to my problems have occured.
How the wifi button doesnt work:
- I tap on button nothing happens
- i can still use my data/credit
- i swipe up the screen,and tap on the wifi button,it turns on but wifi doesnt come up
- its not a dead spot on the screen
How Push Notifications dont work:
-Facebook,Twitter,Tumblr,Instagram etc wont show any notification signs
-i have to go onto the app to recieve my notifications
- text messgaes still pop up on my lock screen
I dont know if these sort of problems should be taken to the Apple store,im uncertain on to how much it would cost to get my phone fixed due to i have no warrenty on my phone.
It would be appreciated if you could help me with anything you know that could help me fix my phone.
Thank You

can you tell me exactly what you did to fix this. I am having the same problem. I have deleted the affected apps and reloaded them and it still wont work right.

With my i phone 4 , the Push notifications doesn't work for apps like (fb viber , whatsapp etc ) it only works for the official apps like message even when im using the phone, has this probleme with the iOs 6.0.1 and also with the iOs 6.1

This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

Push notifications WhatsApp not work.

Push notifications WhatsApp not work. I only receive them when I open the app. I've checked the settings on iOs and Whatsapp and all is ok. I've also updated to the latest versions. Can you help me?

I actually did, and here is the answer I received:
"When you are sent a message in WhatsApp, but are not online to receive it, WhatsApp will automatically send your message to the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS). This allows an alert containing the message to be displayed, even when WhatsApp is closed or your phone's display is off. Most often, all that is needed to resolve notification issues is to ensure that all notification settings are enabled. Review these FAQ pages for troubleshooting steps:
Notifications Troubleshooting
Connection Troubleshooting
Sending your message to APNS typically takes only a few milliseconds. Once your message is sent to APNS, any delays or failure to deliver the message as a push notification to your device are usually caused by issues with your phone or network connection. Currently, all of our systems are operating normally.
If you are using iOS 7, and are confident that you have all push notification settings enabled in WhatsApp and the iPhone Notification Center, then there is likely an issue with your phone that WhatsApp cannot resolve for you. In this case, I recommend the following steps:
Backup your entire phone to iCloud.
After the backup is complete, Erase all content and settings.
Continue setting up your phone as a new device (do not restore from the iCloud backup).
Install WhatsApp and verify that push notifications are working correctly (have someone send you a few test messages while your phone's display is turned off).
Erase all content and settings and restore from the iCloud backup. "
I tried to delete everything from my iPhone and then restore my data with the backup on my computer but it did not change anything, I still can't receive any notification, unless I open the application... However, I restored immediatly my backup cause I was afraid it wouldn't work after, but I don't really think it would change something to first start as a new device and then erase all content again and restore it.

Push notifications & iMessage not working

Push notifications used to work for but once iMessage came out I haven't seen a single push notification and I've yet to get iMessage working.
iMessage activates just fine and verified my phone number without problems but can never send or receive messages.
I have the maximum texting & data plans with AT&T in California.
I have a stock never-been-jailbroken iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1.
Things I have attempted already:
• I have upgraded to 5.0.1.
• I've tried changing my Wifi DNS settings to google's DNS servers but that didn't change anything - and I need it to work on cellular.
• I've reset my networks settings
• I've restored my iPhone to factory settings and set it up as a new iPhone
• I've restored my iPhone to factory settings and restored from a backup
Has anyone found a fix for this? I am unable to parcicipate in any games or use work collaboration apps without push notifications, and the lack of iMessage is troubling.
Note: I've worked for Apple as an engineer for 6 years and write iPhone apps for a living. This is broken on Apple's side.

There are hundreds or people wih this exact same problem and apple has no interest in fixing it or publicly giving and answer to the issues.
They Botched this release big time. I look forward to having tp wipe my 64gb iPad and start from scratch. Oh boy do I!!

Push Notifications Are Not Working

I'm currently using an iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3.3) and push notifications have stopped working. The only app that seems to still be pushing is TextPlus. In my case Facebook, Scrabble, Gowalla and Twitter have all stopped working.
Here is what I have already tried:
Restored my iPhone
General --> Reset --> Reset All Settings
None of these things worked. Are there any suggestions that will definitively help fix this issue? I'm at a loss.
Thanks

Contact AT&T. Make sure your account is provisioned properly for an iPhone (use those words... otherwise all they will do is look to see what you're paying for, which is not the same thing).
It should work just fine so long as you're not trying to use a go-Phone SIM.
