I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??

I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

Hi fredfromcan,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would recommend signing out of your Apple ID for iMessage on your son's iPhone, instructions for which are found here:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268
To sign out of your Apple ID
Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
You may also want to make sure his phone number is deactivated for your Apple ID:
iOS: Deactivating iMessage
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5185
To deregister your phone number, tap Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.
Cheers,

I am unable to register in imessage and facetime using my ipad 3

I am unable to register in imessage and facetime using my ipad 3 and iphone 4s. The message pops up as user name or password is not correct, whereas i am **** sure that both are correct. I am located in uae.

Hi,
If the machine is brand new I don't see why the serial Number is missing (it is entered on to a special chip at the factory)
However if the machine is a return and has been refurbished then the Logic/mother board may have been changed and someone forgot to put the info back to the new board.

IMessage and FaceTime use wrong (old) phone number

My wife and I switched from AT&T to T-Mobile (~$170/mo to $60! woo!). In the process of activating our SIM cards, I activated them backwards: she has an iPhone 5, I have a 4s. I contacted T-Mobile about the issue and they switched the numbers. Calls work, normal text messages work, but iMessage seems to "remember" the old numbers.
Here's what I have tried:
Completely erase and restore both devices after turning off iMessage and FaceTime
Turn off iM/FT and reset network settings
Turn off iM/FT, wait, and turn it back on
Create a new Apple ID for iM/FT and use that to login
The result of all has been the same: I receive iMessages intended for her, and when I send her an iMessage it just returns in the same conversation.
Is there another solution to this problem I've overlooked?

Hi CallItOff,
For troubleshooting iMessage and Facetime activation, I recommend this article:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
There are a few relevant sections in the article so I would suggest just starting from the top.
I hope this helps!

Why can't I use my imessage and facetime using my wifi at home?

I can't use my imessage and facetime over the wifi at my home?

But I tried using a wifi at mcdonalds it works just fine to verify my account.
Then I tried it back at my house wifi. Yet again it couldn't sent any messages or anything for that matter.

Had to update apple id, now iMessage and FaceTime won't work, get message check connection

No problem with the iPhone but iPad won't work.

I'm having the same problem, but I have iMessage and FaceTime activated on my phone, but can't can't get them activated on my iPad. It keeps telling me to check my network connection. I have tried reseting my network setting but that did not fix it.

New iOS 6 activated the wrong phone # for iMessage and Facetime

I just got an iPad 2 and installed the new iOS 6.......only problem is that I have 2 phone numbers on my account and it activated my employee's phone number when it was installed for iMessage and Facetime.......how do i change this number to mine?

Turn iMessage and FaceTime off, reset the device by holding both buttons until the apple logo appear then let go and wait for it to restart. Then turn iMessage and FaceTime back on and enter the settings again

I am going to set up iMessage and faceTime then I get to the second step and I goes back to the start what do I do

I was going to set up iMessage and when I pressed next on the second step I went back to the start help

Will iMessage and FaceTime work on wifi if I am not connected to my network provider?

Hi, I am travelling to the Philippines but do not want to use my messages and calls. I wondered if I have a wifi connection will FaceTime and iMessage still work?

yes of cause thats what ipad wifi and ipod touch users do all the time

After IOS7 upgrade I have lost iMessage and FaceTime.

Does anyone have a solution, Apple have not been very helpful, i.e. Technical support recommended waiting 24 hours to see if that helped, it didn't.

Hi,
Try using Spotlight by swiping down on the middle of any home screen and typing for them, just in case they are "hidden" in any folders. If they show up in the results, you will see the folder they are on the right part.
Check as well that you don't have restrictions enabled in Settings > General > Restrictions
Hope it helps.

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 ?

Fix for imessage and facetime not working in iOS5

I HAVE THE SOLUTION - It's worth shouting about!
will work on itouch as well
Upgraded 3 devices to IOS5. iphone 4, iPad 2 and iTouch (4th Gen). iMessage activates but during sending message it get stuck at 90%, Facetime stopped working on all 3 devices! All connected through a home network No luck with any of the suggestions on the internet as to the cause of the problems.
Took iphone and iTouch to work, connected on the open Wi-Fi there and hey presto both iMessage and Facetime started working! What the ****? Brought the devices home and they continued to work on my home network. Still no luck with the iPad 2 sending to either of the other devices or connecting on Facetime.
It struck me that there appeared to be an issue with the activation process ( even though it said activation successful at home). The most likely cause is the DNS server not passing the data through correctly.
I checked my DNS setting on my router and they were set to Open DNS (208.67.222.220), maybe using Google Public DNS would work? But I didn’t need to mess with the router settings, the DNS on the apple device overrides the router setting. I set the Pad DNS (in Wi-Fi settings) to the Google DNS and straight away a mass of “stuck” test messages came through and I could also send iMessages. Facetime also started working! Yippee! Success! I reset the DNS back to its original value after I finished and it still works ok ( this is optional as Google DNS is good to use as default).
So here’s the fix.... it’s so simple!!
Settings > WiFi > find the active wifi network ( the one with the tick)
Click the blue arrow> find the DNS entry ( 4th item down), note it’s value.
In the DNS field – type in 8.8.8.8
Click the “home button” and then try iMessage and Facetime.
(it’s up to you if .want to set the DNS back to it’s old value)

Your solution works like magic! Thank you very much!

My iPhone 5 updated but when trying to update iMessage and FaceTime it does not work!

I downloaded the new update on my iPhone, but when it was time to update iMessage and FaceTime (using Apple ID and password) it says network unavailable! Then it does not install.

Hi Elba,
Thank you very much for your reply. Not sure, however, that we are talking about the same problem.
I am trying to perform the same function in Lr that I have been doing for many years in the past and has only been a problem in the last few days (possibly coinciding with upgrading to Yosemite, trying to find out whether that is the problem)
I am not intending to sync any files with Creative Cloud but only trying to use 'Synchronize Folder' function in Lr. Normally, I would right click on a particular folder in Lr catalogue and click on that function to check that the Lr Catalogue is perfectly matching my drives where the original photos are actually stored.
The problem that I only started to encounter is that I can see the files on the actual drives but they do not appear in my Lr Catalogue and they are completely invisible to Lr. I simply can not get Lr to recognise them and then import them to catalogue.
If for example, I export images to Ps and then save and close them, they do appear on my drive but are invisible to Lr and I can't get them imported into the catalogue. Import to folder also not producing any results as they are still invisible to Lr.
Completely baffled by it. Any idea what could be the reason?
Kind regards,
Nik
