I cannot activate Imessage on my iphone 4. When I enter my Apple ID it keeps coming up with 'An error occurred during avtivation. Try again' Can anybody help ?
It seems a lot of people are having this problem...you can try restarting your device, making sure Date & Time settings are on automatic, or changing your DNS to 8.8.8.8. However, most people posting about this problem have tried everything including data resets, restores, etc. and it doesn't seem to work. It seems to be an issue on Apple's end with the servers...hopefully they can resolve it quickly

Please can somebody help me? My imessage does not work, I try to activate it but it says an error ocurred during activation. try again
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.

When I try to purchase a song, it will not let me use the gift card that I redeemed. It directs me to my billing info and says that my session has timed out. How can I fix this?
For some reason this worked for me. I went into my account and changed my first name, maybe it causes itunes to reset. What ever it does my itunes works now.

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).
