S telling me an error occurred during activation.
Facetime keeps telling me an error occurred during activation? I re-entered all my info still does it.
My daughters had the same problem with both of their iPod Touches. One logged back into iMessage and FaceTime, the other consistently would not login with the same error, "An error occurred during activation. Try again."
Check your date and time. Its likely incorrect. Once the date is corrected. Restart the device.
For what ever reason, some devices lose track of the date. In my case, apparently, my daughters change the date to affect a particular game by advancing the date. Little cheaters. (LOL)
Hope this helps!

When I try to activate my FaceTime, I get an error msg that says, "An error occurred during activation. Try again." I have a good password (I used it to get here...); I'm on WiFi; I've toggled FT off and back on again but I cannot get past the error message and get activated. What's wrong? Thanks. Talking about my iPhone (4).
Its possible that the server can be down now. Have you ever used it before? If you want, try resseting the phone by just holding the sleep/wake key and the home button together for 10 seconds. Then wait 5 seconds when it turns off and press the sleep/wake button to turn it back on. Then try it again. Let me know what the results are.

I cannot sign in FaceTime , it keeps on saying an error occurred during activation, please sign in again
Hey!
I too was facing the same problem but have found a solution for it. The problem is most likely because of the 'Date & Time' setting. Change to setting to 'Set Automatically' and then try reconnecting to facetime/imessage.
Hope this helps you as it did to me. -

An error occurred during activation
When I attempt to correct my Apple ID password, I get the message An error occurred during activation. Try again. This message makes no sense to me, as it replicates the error I see when I am in the Apple ID password screens and I see An unknown error has occurred. Could someone explain these error messages?
Hey there ashie88,
It sounds like you are unable to activate iMessage on your iPhone. Try signing out of your Apple ID, restart the device, then try again:
To sign out of your Apple ID
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
