Unable to activate iMessage and FaceTime on my current number

Hi all.
I have an iPhone 5, I've changed from my Spanish SIM to my English SIM. Now keep getting the activation errors when I try to activate iMessage and FaceTime. It activates to my apple id emails, but my phone number appears dimmed and not ticked. I have tried all the methods I've found online: activating and disactivating, switching my iPhone on and off too, reseting, restoring, changing my apple id password, updating my old number under my apple id to my new one. Nothing has worked. Then I tried to send an iMessage to myself, and I discovered that my number that iMessage can be sent to is my old Spanish number, although the number that appeared under iMessage send and receive is my English one. So I have just tried my Spanish SIM. And iMessage and FaceTime have been activated instantly with my Spanish number. I dis activated again both and put back my English SIM. Now, if I try to activate iMessage and FaceTime, I still get the activation errors, but the number that appears dimmed and not ticked is my Spanish one.
Quite annoying, and I can't seem to be able to find where the mistake is.
Thank you for your help.
Txiki

Have you tried taking out the sim card and iMessaging using the phone on Wi-Fi only? If it still is an issue then the sim card has nothing to do with it and you would most likely have to do a wipe by Erasing all content and Settings.
Since you had the phone unlocked and it was activated already with one number... In order to remove that number, so that it doesn't keep being an issue, is to do a full reset. This will allow you to go through the activation process again with the new number being selected for iMessaging if you set up the phone using cellular connection.
I know this is most likely not the easy solution you were seeking but to be honest... Sometimes starting fresh is a good thing . Good luck sir!

I have problems to activate imessage and facetime on my iphone

i have problems to activate imessage and facetime on my iphone, it doesnt work with my phone number, only with icloud and when somebody tries to contact me on facetime, it show them that im not connected, please help!

Have you tried restarting the phone? Hold both Home and Power buttons down until Apple logo appears and phone "reboots".
And have you tried resetting Network Settings?
Settings => General => Reset => Reset Network Settings
You will have to re-enter Wifi Passwords but it might help you get to a more solid connection on your phone.

Why can't I activate iMessage and FaceTime with phone number?

Hi, I own an iPhone 4, recently I restored it and now I can't activate iMessage and FaceTime using my phone number.
I read and performed all the steps shown in apple troubleshooting article about activating iMessage and FaceTime and that didn't work either.
Before restoring the iPhone both iMessage and FaceTime were working just fine...
Why is that? What can I do?
Thanks,
Konrad

in settings where you have them turned on, does it say waiting for activation ?

cant find my camera app after the ios 7 update and no airdrop app

No Airdrop for iPhone 4S. And the Camera should be the same place it was before. Did you try searching Spotlight for it?

My Apple TV is slow and disconnects after the latest update (5.1). It seems to effect both home sharing and through the net. Is there a known problem?

Hi Scott.
There is a problem - but Apple have not acknowledged it. Many people on these forums are experiencing the same issue.
To get something done, you should report it here. The more of us that tell Apple about it, the more likely they are to fix it. You could also send a short email headed 'Apple TV update problems' to

I can't sign in to my iMessage and FaceTime after getting a new apple ID account. What should I do to solve it?

When I got my iPad I created a new apple ID it was working fine but then one day when I went to the app store and checked my apple ID, as usual it asked for a password, I typed the password in and was very sure it was the right one because i've been using it for a long time. Then it said incorrect password. I tried to type it in again and again and again but it still said incorrect password. We checked if it still exists on apple.com but then it said no apple ID found or no matches to our records or something like that. So I decided to get a new one but still used the same email. I found out that if 1 email is associated with 2 different apple ID's it may cause problems but as I said we checked if the old one still existed on apple.com it said it didn't so I thought it was fine to use the email again. After that the app store was working fine. I can install games and apps. I knew I had to sign in to iMessage and FaceTime again because of the I got a new apple ID but whenever I try signing in, it always says "Incorrect password" and sometimes "check you internet connection". I've tried signing in over and over again but nothing worked I still can't sign jn to iMessage and Facetime. What do you think I should do?

Can't sign in on iMessage and FaceTime after upgrading to ML

After doing a clean install of ML, I can't login anymore to iMessage and FaceTime. I'm correctly login to iTunes, AppStore and on my iPhone iMessage works good.
The error is "Il server ha rilevato un errore durante l'elaborazione della registrazione. Riprova pi tardi"
or in english
"The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later."
The problem is in ML because with Snow Leopard I hadn't a single problems. I'm on iMac 21.5'' late 2009.
Thanks

it didn't work for me. instead, it created more problem.
inexplicably, now i have duplicate inactive imessage account which i don't know how to remove!
instead of looking for ways to activate the imessage & factime, now need to fix another thing...
another thing which i tried reading the thread was to log in using safe mode. it didn't help either. same "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." problem. it was too laggy and had to force a shut down. rechecked disk permission and found a host of permission problems.
sigh...
more problems....
apple support is closed for holiday...

I cannot activate iMessage and Facetime in my iPad and Macbook Pro

Hi everyone,
Last month, my iPad Air 3G (ran iOS 7.2) and my Macbook Pro (ran Yosemite OS 10.10), I could use iMessage and Facetime in both of them normally. But after upgrading iPad to 8.3, I can not sign in with my Apple ID on 2 devices anymore. It always has error: 'Could not sign in with your Apple ID. Please check your internet connection" when signing up in iPad and Macbook Pro.
I tried many ways: reset network, reset device... with iPad but it didn't work. Please help me. Thanks a lot.
Regards
