Why can't I sign into FaceTime or iMessage with my apple I'd after os 6 update
I upgraded to os 6 and can't sign into FaceTime or iMessage since. Error message pops up saying incorrect username or password even though I use the same user name on iTunes. I tried creating a new apple I'd n that didn't work either.

I can't sign into FaceTime or iMessage using my Apple ID.
I Have been trying to sign into both iMessage and FaceTime on all my apple devices. And it won't sign into either one of them. I know the password is correct because I am able to use iTunes and iCloud.
but its only with my Apple ID. I signed into FaceTime with my friends account and it worked perfectly fine.

Why can't I sign into my Game Center with my new password
I Just changed my password now it won't let me into my Game Center?????
Hi Aggrevated77,
Welcome to the Support Communities! I understand you just changed your password for your Apple ID and now you can't log into Game Center. The first thing to do is to confirm your new password is working in other services that use your Apple ID. Are you able to log in at www.icloud.com or in the iTunes Store?
The article below will provide additional steps to try:

Can not sign into FaceTime or iMessage on ipad air
For some reason I can not sign into FaceTime or iMessage using my Apple ID anymore. They both used to work, but they just stopped.. Now when I try to sign back in I get a message than an error occurred during sign in. I use two different Apple id's, one just for iCloud and one for everything else.

Why Can't I Log Into Facetime Or Mail
Hello!
I have a new iMac and I've tried signing into Facetime and Mail with my Apple ID account, but a message pops up that says, "Apple ID/Password is incorrect". I know I am typing in the right password and I've changed it to try it with a different password, and my entire email is typed in. I registered my Apple ID on the Apple website and I registered it with iTunes, but it still won't let me sign into Mail or Facetime. I have a Gmail account as my Apple ID.
Is creating an Apple ID on the website different than registering it with iTunes or maybe I did something wrong? Please make any appropriate suggestions.Hello,

why can't I sign into my account and add a rescue email so I will be able to redo my security questions? I have been unable to buy anything from Itunes because it's asks me for security questions that I don't remember what I put in the first place
1. Because if you could, someone who breaks into your account could do it as well.
2. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

Why can't I sign in FaceTime and imesseges
Hi , I want to ask why can't I sign in FaceTime and imesseges in my new ipad using my apple ID they are telling me that the email or password are wrong but I am sure that they are the right ones because I am been using this apple ID downloading things
Maximum number of three icloud accounts had been created on that particular device. There is no limit to Apple id creation - that is why no problem with imessage or facetime.

Why can't I sign into my iCloud on my iPad but can on any other devices i.e my I phone and I mac
What App are you using to log in, Safari?
You cannot access icloud.com from an ios device in a browser. They have individual apps (find my phone, mail, calendar) to access those services from an ios device. -
"An error occurred during activation. Try again." Why can I not sign into Imessage?
Hi,
You stated earlier that you had already deleted the "madrid" .plist with no effect.
Can I check you did this with the app closed down or at least restarted the app straight afterwards ?
If you did that close the app if open and access the ~/Library/Preferences folder again.
This time delete com.apple.imessage.bag.plist
This item stores the Apple server used for your Login to the iMessages server and contains a date/time reference.
Restarting the app after deleting this file will make it reconnect with the iMessages servers in a fresh manner which my solve things.
It may sort out any date/time issues with the stored date.
Messages is one of the app that Apple have "Sandboxed".
This means that some of it's operations are held away from other apps to prevent one app bringing down several others.
This is turn means that the route or path used by the app to Read and Write to the various .plists is different to the direct placing in ~/Library/Preferences.
The Path is ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Preferences
Mostly the items in here are then Aliases that point to the actual originals in ~/Library/Preferences. However there are exceptions.
You can copy and paste the Path above in to the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder dialogue box to access this folder.
Once there use the Finder's View Menu > Show Path Bar.
This adds a collection of folders across the bottom of the Finder window.
Right click on the Preferences folder at the right hand list of the Path.
Chose the Get Info option.
In the Info panel scroll to the Bottom.
Your Shortname should appear (with (Me) as well) and you should have Read and Write Permissions
If you highlight this and then use the Cogwheel type iCon it should reveal you shortname again but in Greyed out form which mean you Own the File/folder
Repeat this for each containing folder until the Library item on the left (you don't need to do the Little House icon one)
You should have Read an Write Permissions and Own all of them.
Can you confirm this ?
