  • Why Won't my FaceTime and iMessage Work?

    I've Had My IPhone 4 For A Year Now And A Couple Of Months Ago My iMessage And FaceTime Stop Working I've Tried To Activate It Using My Apple Account But It Keeps Saying Something About My Network Connection.

    Are you on a strong wifi or 3G connection? 
    There may also be issues on Apple's side with their servers.  This happens somewhat frequently, so if you can't connect, wait a while and try again later.

  • FaceTime and iMessage not accepting my Apple ID password while iCloud and App Store already accepted them?

    I cant sign in to iMessages and FaceTime while I sign in to App Store and iCloud with the same ID without any problem! Do they have different ID and password? If not tell me please what to do
    Thanks dear buddies

    Hi Friend,
    First, Where are you located and what country did you buy your phone?  Some countries have restricted facetime, ie middle east, UAE.
    Check if you signed in Facetime with your Apple ID and password (Settings>>Facetime).
    Check if you have signed iCloud in.
    Check that FaceTime is not disabled in general/restrictions. If that isn't the problem try changing dns servers on your iPad.
    Go to Contacts app and select the person you want call then tap Facetime.
    Change your address for your currently location. If not works, change it for your native country.
    If still not working, go to Settings -> General -> Date & Time -> Set Automatically: ON (Yes date time setting has been known to cause issue).

  • TS4268 Why FaceTime and iMessage not activated with non US located Apple ID?

    I have an iPad mini and I'm not able to activate FaceTime and iMessage using my apple ID whcih has a country set as Egypt, and when I tried to use another ID with US as country, it working fine.
    Note: I was able to activate iMessage using the Egpytian ID before updating to IOS 6.
    I guess this is a problem with IOS 6 and as a work arround you can chnage the country of you ID to US (if you don't have payment details set) and it will be activated.

When I try to imessage someone, the message says "turn off airplane mode or use wifi to send and receive messages" but i have full wifi strength. When I try to FaceTime, it says to check the number, it might not be complete. I've tried calling the number as usual, then the international number to ca from South Africa to the US.
    I have an iPhone 5s, My email is working fine. My phone is on airplane mode but I have full wifi strength. My date and time is set automatically to Cape Town. Please someone help me figure out why this isn't working! I can't find any other solutions on the internet. Thank you!

    Then make sure to sign into facetime and imessage again and you should be good to go

  • IOS 6 disaster. Facetime and imessage not working. sync problems

    Hi all.
    I just wanted to know if anyone else  has experienced so many bugs with iOS6?
    Upgraded to an ipad 3 32GB  wifi . Gave my dad ipad 2(restored and logged in with his apple id).
    All was well. Then iOS 6 came along
    I am able to log into my apple id but everytime i try to sign into facetime it says username or password is incorrect.
    it worked a couple times but then stopped working again.
    I am positive the password is correct.
    I reset the password and am using the new one.
    It is correct.
    Restored the ipad.
    worked for a while.. then the same thing
    now i can't sync, Am getting an error message . Currently restoring the ipad again.
    I am able to purchase items on itunes still on my desktop and my apple id seems to be working otherwise.
    Facetime and imessage is not
    please help?
    anyone else experienced similiar issues with iOS6 ?
    It should be mentioned that i couldn't purchase items directly from my ipad with the appstore for a period of time but it worked when i purchased through itunes on my desktop
    Are these bugs associated with iOS6?
    Again any help will be greatly appreciated
    Cheers

    I have the exact same problem!! it's been driving me crazy!! I have iPhone 4 but my iMessage works fine however.
    Just the FaceTime doesn't work at all, my phone number is registered ,
    just when I try to add my email (apple ID) to make the facetime works & activate .. I write down my email & password correctly , it says password is incorrect! =(((
    I changed my password, I tried resetting the settings and turning on & off the phone and all. Nothing Works!!
    this is one of MANY bugs I have after I updated (& made the most terrible mistake of my life) to iOS 6 !!
    Apps are crashing & force closing including their new app store. Youtube application is vey slow. Maps aren't accurate not even half the quality of google maps. Screen freezes sometimes =((
    I'm very disaapointed at Apple seriously!! this could be their one mistake that will drop down their whole legendary iPhone into the sewer!

  • Facetime and iMessage not working after upgrade to Mountain Lion

    Was running Messages (beta) and Facetime on my Macbook Pro with Lion.  I used both Facetime and sent iMessages through the Messages client, and they were both working 100%.
    Today I upgraded from Lion (latest version) to Mountain Lion.  All is working except iMessages (through the Messages application) and Facetime.  When I try to log in, using the same @gmail.com account as I had done before, I get the message saying "The server encountered an error processing registration.  Please try again later".
    I know that iMessage, with that account, is working.  I am using it from my iPhone and it works ok.  And I use the same account in iTunes, and it is ok there as well.
    So what is wrong ?  What happened with iMessage and Facetime connectivity after the Mountain Lion upgrade ?

    backup the device with itunes.
    Restore the device with itunes and set up as new.
    Sign into the facetime and imessage to activate it.
    After that is done and activation is good.
    Restore from the backup.
    Then make sure to sign into facetime and imessage again and you should be good to go

  • FaceTime and iMessage not working after 10.9.2 upgrade

    After upgrading I am unable to sign into FaceTime or iMessage on my 2010 Macbook Pro 13"
    Ive used troubleshooting steps from the following:
    FaceTime for Mac: Troubleshooting FaceTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4185
    FaceTime, Game Center, Messages: Troubleshooting sign in issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3970
    Neither of which worked.
    the wheel just spins and after a while i get a message stating "unable to log in, check network connection and try again." I am connected and my AppleID and email are verified.
    Any solutions?

    JRob90 ... I updated to 10.9.2 this evening on two machines.  On one of them, I hit what looks like it could be the same problem as you BUT it's only impacting iMessage .... now.
    The machine where  everything worked fine is one where the AppleID is a "more traditional" mac.com ID that's also tied to my wife's phone.  On the machine where it is failing, the AppleID is a non-Apple e-mail address used just for messaging and I don't use it on an iPhone or other devices.  Note: this was all working just a few hours ago before the update.  Facetime was also failing on this second machine but I logged into the AppleID site, reset my password (since I figured I might be typing it in wrong) and deleted the phone numbers because they were showing errors when I tried to update one of them.  Then I re-added the phone numbers to that account and now Facetime is indeed working for me.... I'm not sure if this is simply because I confirmed I was entering the right password or possibly now the phone numbers are recorded correctly with the AppleID .....
    I do see identityservicesd Warnings in the console when trying to connect to iMessage -AND- to Facetime, but the difference between these messages is the "Service Type" (as expected) and the "Base Number" which shows my real (and correct) mobile phone number for Facetime but shows +10000000000 for iMessage.
    I know this probably does not help you .. but maybe you can see if your problem is isolated to iMessage like I am seeing too.....
