TS3367 Face Time activation: Showing message "wating for activation"

I cannot activate Face Time. Currently i am using tata docomo carrier.

FaceTime is not dependent on carrier.
Try the steps mentioned in "Troubleshooting FaceTime".
Double check that correct region format is selected; date and time is set to automatic; correct time zone is selected and your phone number is correctly displayed under SETTINGS - PHONE - MY NUMBER

  • Dear all, I am unable to use face time. It says "waiting for activation". Pls tell what should I do.

    Dear all, I am unable to use face time. It says "waiting for activation". Pls tell what should I do.

    I found a solution that solve the problem, and worked immediately.
    FaceTime worked for me since I purchased my iPhone 4 more than a year ago.
    It stopped working for me since I upgrade it to ios5.
    The reason is that I had Restrictions On: accounts set to "Don't allow changes"
    When you set this like that, you naturally blocking iCloud and FaceTime accounts.
    To solve the problem go to Settings -> General -> Restrictions, and make sure you "allow changes" to accounts and also enable the FaceTime app to work.
    Return to Settings -> FaceTime, and set it to 0 and back to 1.
    That should do the trick. ☺
    I recommend after to "Don't allow changes" to Accounts and Location, to block thieves disable the "Find my iPhone" functionality.  
    Good luck!

  • IPad message : "WAITING FOR ACTIVATION"

    got new iPad - did all the stuff - hooking it up to iTunes, synched it, played for 2 days and nos it gives me the funny message "WAITING FOR ACTIVATION" - how long does it take? already been over 1 hour and NOTHING
    What do I do?...

    Is it a 3G model? What does the screen look like? Is it showing the cable picture and the iTunes icon on the screen?
    Try plugging it to iTunes and see what iTunes does in there. If nothing works, put it in Recovery Mode and restore it by iTunes.
    Hope this helps,

    Well, if you did it yourself, then there is a chance that you damaged some other component inside the device that is causing your issue. The iPhone's are not user serviceable, and once you have opened the device you have voided any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple. I would try Google to see if you can find any other way to repair your device, as Apple will no longer look at it.

  • TS3367 Face time settings for Internet use only.

    What setting do I use to ensure that I am only using the Internet to face time and not using my mobile?

    Settings>FaceTime.
    Turn "Use Cellular Data" off.

  • TS4268 Wating for Activation on airtel India?

    Back up, Erase all content and settings, Restore iPhone (downloads fresh iOS), restore from backup.  Should fix.  You will not lose texts, etc.

  • How do I get Face Time to show my new Apple ID instead of my old one?

    I changed my internet provider and therefore had to change my Apple ID - not an easy straightforward thing to do. I had to contact Apple a Support and get it straightened out. However, I cannot use FaceTime as my old Apple ID (previous email) pops up and can't get my new Apple ID (new email) to show!
    WHy is this so hard and complex to do! Can anyone help?
    i Can't do face time on any of my Apple devices: iPhone, iPad mini or my Mac Notebook.

    Hello Elizabeth,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you're being prompted to sign in to your old Apple ID when opening FaceTime, then I'd like you to simply sign out of FaceTime, and then sign back in with your correct Apple ID.
    FaceTime for Mac (Yosemite): Sign in to FaceTime
    Take care,

  • Face time picture shows with "bars"

    When I use face time while traveling I'm having issues with the screen. We start the conection with their faces covering the complete screen (holding my iPad vertically) and then all of the sudden changes and they show in a letterbox with black bars top and bottom (kind of the annoying Skype). Is there any setting I should use to make sure that while I hold my iPad vertically the screen will be full?
    My home uses a MacBook or sometimes an iPhone
    Thanks

    Try the standard fixes:
    -  Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from ackup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If the shutter still will not open time fro an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Also see:

  • Please I can't activate my account on face time and I message

    My dear,

    I already use the same password to download applications from apple stores

    I have the same problem....Apple ID and password works for everything apart from FaceTime - did you solve your issue, if so how?

  • I get an error message "waiting for activation" while trying to turn on imessage

    I had to reset my Apple ID password. After doing this i now have to log back into everything that requires an Apple ID to operate on my 5C. I dont currently have cell coverage as im traveling in Italy for work and don't have international coverage. Is there a way for Imessage to  verify my new AppleID password without recieving an SMS from Verizon. My phone is currently in Airplane mode with date and all roaming shut off to keep from getting an expensive charge. I have Wifi through a hot spot i carry with me but the Imessage gives an error message saying "waiting for activation" From everything i have found i guess it's waiting for network (Verizon) verification. Back to my question, is there a way to have Imessage verify my new Apple ID password over wifi using my email address instead of carrier verification? This seems to have worked for Facetime but i know facetime only uses Wifi.

    Hey Andrew, 
    That is interesting issue. If you are still not activated with iMessage, then you will probably need to turn your cellular data on so it can be linked with your phone number. Go over the article below to walk you through some general troubleshooting to get it going.

    You aren't addressing Apple here. This is a user-to-user tech support site.  Apple doesn't participate here. We are all iPhone users like yourself
    There is nothing whatsoever misleading about how FactTime is described by Apple.  It works EXACTY as stated. If you are mislead, it's due to your inadequate reading comprehension or lack of effort reading what Apple actually said.
    There is no "international" standard for cell phone video calling.  Most other phones use proprietary systems or 3rd party apps such as Skype (which also works on iPhones).  FaceTime is on WiFi internet connections only because all carriers have refused to allow it on their cell networks due to the huge number of iPhones.  The FaceTime standard is open source and other manufacturers are free to implement it, but have refused so far.
