When I try to activate my iMessage with the new iOS 7, it will not accept my original Apple ID. Also, when I try to use snapchat, it keeps popping up "login to iTunes to allow push notifications." please help!" I'm really frustrated

Please help!!!

I got this under XP before. I was totally baffled until I realized there was a network drive mapped to the same place XP was trying to mount my iPod. The common symptom is that you'll get this sort of "corrupt" error on one machine but it works ok on a friend's machine. If that's true for you, you can change the network drive mapping to another drive letter (easiest) or mount your iPod and change its drive letter in the disk management control panel (under admin tools).
Hope that helps... this one just about had me pulling my hair out until I recognized the problem.

  • Why can't I find/access my recent downloads and imessage with the new IOS software update?

    I just recently updated my phone to the new IOS 7 software. I had to do this using my computer. It updated ok but now when I try to find apps that I downloaded (from the computer again) I am unable to locate them. I did find one app that was downloaded but when I click install nothing seems to be happening. I have turned the phone off and on several times hoping it would reset but nothing. I am also unable to access imessage for some reason. Help!!!

    You can't update your iPad past iOS 5.1.1
    Many iPad 1 owners reported slow downs with iOS 5.
    Under the Settings app, General category under About, how much storage capacity does your iPad have left?
    You could try a hard restart or reset by holding down the sleep/on-off button and home button simultaneously.
    Once the screen goes black, wait about two seconds, then let both buttons go.
    See if this changes anything.
    Good Luck!

  • The character count when sending a message doesn't work with the new iOS 5.

    Hi,
    After I upgraded to the new iOS 5, the message counter no longer appears.  I've gone into the settings to verify that it is turned on. I've turned it off and then back on. I've rebooted the phone, but to no avail.  Has anyone else encountered this new "feature"?
    Thanks,
    Allan

    The only way I can get character count back is to disable both iMessage and MMS.  I agree it is annoying.  iMessage only works between iOS 5 devices, and since the whole world does not use Apple products, it's not like I still won't be sending plain old SMS text messages to people.  If you type more then the SMS character limit, AT&T still happily sends it, their servers just truncate it, so the character count feature is hardly an outdated or pointless feature.
    I have been sending fewer and fewer texts though anyway, and using email instead. but this just pushes me further away from texting.  Most of my work texts are to blackberry users, so no iMessaging with them, but having to go back and forth into settings to enable/disable iMessage means I will likely just leave iMessage off all the time anyway.

  • IMessage with the new iOS 6.1

    I updated all of the devices associated with my Apple ID to the new iOS 6.1. I have two iPhones, a new iPad 3 and an iPad Mini. My personal phone number is the number associated with my Apple ID. The other iPhone is an add on for my mother.
    I used to be able to get iMessages that were sent to my iPhone number forwarded to both my iPads. After the upgrade, my iPads had the phone number changed from mine to my mother's, even though my mother's phone number is not associated with my Apple ID.
    I've been fiddling with all the devices all evening and have managed to get my mother's phone number off of my iPads.
    Now it appears that I can only use iMessage with email accounts. It was very useful the other way. I'm not sure that iMessage on my iPad will be useful at all anymore now that I cannot receive messages that were sent to my phone number.
    Is there anyway to get that feature back, or has it been changed on purpose?

    Ok guy the solution i have found is to get the phone that is associated with the number that you do not want on your device and then go into the messages setting under settings, general, messages. Then go into send and recieve. You will then notice that the apple id is your apple id. This needs to be changed to a personal apple id/icloud account. This should be unique for each phone. Once this is changed the second number on your current phone will disappear. On the solution with the ipad... I would sign out of your apple id account and then sign back in... this should reset the imessage account...Hopefully this helped....by the way my situation was that i was recieving my moms texts and facetime calls because i inadvertantly signed into my apple id on her messages and facetime rather than her icloud. It is still possible for her to use your apple id on app store things but use a unique icloud account for things like backup, facetime, imessage, etc... Good Luck

  • I work on two screens. With the new updates, my computer will not automatically open a new window on the second screen.

    I work on two screens. With the new updates we cannot automatically open a new window on the second screen, but have to move them over manually. Not a huge problem, but because of the nature of the work, it gets tedious.

    Hi Annowriter,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that it is annoying to have to move a new window to the second screen. Since it opens in the active screen this may have been a stored preference, however it is not the default.
    There is an add on called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ Monitor Master] that customizes settings like this. Check it out.

    Double check the version of iTunes on your computer. You must have iTunes 11.1 or later.

  • HT4623 Downloaded new IOS, but it will not allow me to log into iCloud, no matter how many times I reset my password. Please help.

    I downloaded the new IOS, but it will not allow me to log into iCloud. I even tried resetting my password, but it does not recognize me. Please help. Thanks.

    I'm having the same issue.  I went through the apple website to reset my password, and it was no problem, even let me update my email address and apple id, but my iphone is still not accepting what I know the password is, so I can't delete it, or change the apple id information.

  • HT1937 Hi few days ago I bought a second hand iphone 5 white 64 gb, and when I try to activate it I see the following message: "This iPhone can not be activated for service.please contact your carrier or AppleCare"

    Hi few days ago I bought a second hand iphone 5 white 64 gb, and when I try to activate it I see the following message: "This iPhone can not be activated for service.please contact your carrier or AppleCare"

    So then do what it says...contact Apple or your wireless carrier.
    However your phone is probably locked to another carrier and cannot be used on yours.

    Hello,
    Only option is upgrading your Mac's OSX, since Apple will not allow iOS to go backwards.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...

        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.

    Google seems to change their login security occasionally, and apps that assume it will work a particular way get left out in the cold till they are updated, since the login process is hard-coded into the app.
    Here is the automated e-mail I received today from Google when tried to upload a movie using iMovie.
