Why can't I access iMessage or Facetime

I recently purchased the new iPad and I have set it all up to use iTunes & the App Store which works fine no problem, I have been downloading apps.
However I cannot access iMessage or Facetime, I enter the password and then it takes me to the page saying my e-mail address is what people will see etc and then asks me to verify it, when I do this it spends about 2mins verifying and then comes back saying unable to verify check emails for verification e-mail, which I have never received.
I have even changed my password to see if that sorts it out however it hasn't. Also when I check my apple ID it says its already verified so I don't understand why I can't access iMessage or Facetime.
I've tried the reset and that didn't sort it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

  • 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,

  • I can't sign in imessages and facetime

    I can't sign in imessages and facetime !!

    ... we might need more info than that! why can't you sign in and what happens? any error message?
    if the issue happens when you're trying to reach someone who doesn't have an appleid or is not connected, then it's normal.
    also check in settings>general>date & time> and set automaticly ON, that's a problem with facetime and iMessage...

    Hey GingCarv,
    Great question. You'll want to download the movies from your purchase history. The following article explains how to do so:

    Note: At this time, movies are not available for automatic downloads.

  • I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

    I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like  the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

    Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
    I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
    APPLE. What are you doing?

  • Why can't I access my icloud email on Chrome?

    Why can't I access my iCloud email on Chrome? I can open it, read one email and then it freezes > both on my mac and on my pc!  After an upgrade I can't access "mail" either, which is why I resorted to iCloud on chrome.

    Your profile states 10.6.8. The system requirements for mail is 10.7.5 or later

  • Why can't I access photoshop cs6 on my computer?

    Details: I launch the program and it prompts me to sign into my adobe account. I click "sign in," and then it loads for awhile. It then displays an error message specifying that I am not connected to the internet or that my pc's clock is not properly synched. I reset my internet connection and synched my clock , but to no avail. The same error message is displayed every time. Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hey Pete,
    I'm using Windows 7 and I don't think I have any firewalls. But it has recently come to my attention that before my brother gave me this computer, he installed Clock Stopper to extend free trial programs. It's since been uninstalled, but could that program have messed up my clock permanently?
    Thanks

    Hello srpeters5,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Wi-Fi on your iPhone.  You have taken some really good steps to troubleshoot this issue already.  I found an article that includes a few additional steps you can try.  You can skip any steps you have already taken.

  • Why can't I access the updated that are pending on my phone?

    Why can't I access the updated that are pending on my phone? I've turned the phone off and also closed all the apps. But still won't allow me to access the updates. Just a blank screen.

    Another post is reporting that applying the 6.1 update fixes their issue. I'll have to wait until I am back on WiFi to try that.

    You must've blocked cookies. iTunes requires cookies I believe. If you did block it follow these steps:
