Server error processing registration

Whenever I go to log onto facetime on my macbook pro, I put in my id and password. I am let in to the next page where it says to choose which e-mail I would like to receive calls from, I choose the one I usually do, but then it takes me to the start screen and says "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." I've tried again "later" but to run into the same error.

Having same problem. someone please help.

  • When logging on to my account a receive this message "the server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later".  This is not a new account. I have changed my password and nothing works.  What am I doing wrong.

    I'm having trouble logging into facetime.  We do not have a new account.  I've changed the password and still cannot get in.  The message that pops up is "the server encountered an error processing registration.  Please try again later."  I want to talk to my granddaughter but can't.  Can someone help me.  Thanks

    I had to same problem. I found forums about adding the DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in System Preferences - Networks I did that and it still didnt work.  Just found another forum saying to go into System Preferences - Time and Date and check the Set time and Date automatically. And it worked for me. Hope it works for you too.

    Hi,
    As the Other threads suggests I would check the Date and Time settings on the Mac and compare that with the settings in the router.
    Messages (and iChat before that) send Time stamped info to Login and to send IMs.
    Obviously most people set their Macs to their Time Zone and nearest city/town.
    What people sometimes forget is that their Router/Modem device(s) have to be set correctly as well.
    EDIT
    Also Add a Public DNS server to your System Preferences> Network > Advanced Button > DNS  tab
    A Google one such as 8.8.4.4 or 8.8.8.8 seem to work well for most people

  • The server has encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later"

    Hello, I just got my MAC Book Pro and it I can not log into FACETIME it states " The server has encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later" now it is not due to incorrect information entered. However I also have an IPad mini and I could log unto that without any problems.. Greatly appreciate any help!

    Back up all data.
    Take the steps suggested in this support article:
    FaceTime, Game Center, Messages: "There was an error processing registration" when signing in
    The time zone must be correct for your location.
    Make sure you know your ID (an email address) and password. The password should be in your keychain, which you access in the Keychain Access application.
    Sign out of iMessage:
    Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    Then sign back in with your verified credentials.

    i also have tried downloading "FaceTap" application to get facetime on my ipad and failed too. i thought i failed because i couldnt download latest 6.0 iOS or later. i downloaded latest software update for iOS but was 5.8 I think

    Wait until Apple fix it. See: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Facetimer: server encountered an error processing registration

    Hello,
    This morning, I had no problem signing on to my FaceTime on my Macbook Pro. Later, I updated my IPhone 4's software to the latest version, and now my Macbook Facetime isn't working. When I try to login, I get "Server encountered and error processing registration. Try again later." I've tried changing my password, and I'm still getting the message. What am I missing?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I had the same problem, I guess Facetime must have access to your current location and time, just make sure you check "Set time zone automatically using current location" box at System Preferences >Date &Time >Time Zone
    Cheers,

  • When I try to login to iMessage, I get the error: The server encountered and error processing registration.  Please try again later.

    I've been getting this error for two weeks.  I've tried rebooting the computer, resetting my network connection, and double-checking my password.  The chat function works fine on my iPad and iPhone, just not on my computer.  I have OS X 10.8.4 running on a MacBook Pro.
    Any help GREATLY appreciated.

    I have encountered the same problem as Wildwing today on my iMac.  Facetime was working fine last week, but at lunch time today when my son tried to call he could not get through, although I was sitting at my iMac compiling an email at the time. Fortunately however I have an iPad Mini, which I heard ringing in another room so I picked up the call on that. 
    I have noticed that if I go to the  FaceTime tool bar, Preferences is greyed out. 
    I have tried to sign in again but keep getting this message : 'The server encountered an error processing registration.  Please try again later.'
    I have checked the outage on Support System Status, Apple is not reporting any problems.  I have logged on to Apple ID and re-verified both of my Apple IDs (I use a different one for iTunes) and had no difficulty accessing my Apple ID on either account on my current passwords.
    Messages which is set up with the same Apple ID as Facetime is working fine on my iMac and both Facetime and Messaes are fine on my Mini.
    I have had two Apple IDs for ages, which has never caused a problem before although I am wondering if this is the issue.
    Taking the 'try again later' literally, I have been trying that on and off since lunch time and I have rebooted my computer, I am still getting the same Error message.
    I am at a loss to know what to do next.  Help please

    I'm trying to get onto facetime and I keep getting a message saying the server encountered an error processing registration please try again later. Can anybody tell me what is going on?

    I have read over and actioned ALL recommendations many times over, and still get the Facetime error..! I have reset Host file, looked for iphone certificates, set time/date to auto, checked for suspect DNS entries, cleared caches etc etc. It's become a very fustrating problem. Worked fine for a long time but then suddenly stopped.
    I wish I could find the solution...
