  • Why my iphone's iMessage and Facetime can't be activated?

    hi, I just bought an iphone4 from the Mississauga apple store two days ago, the iMessage and Facetime can't be activated, so these things are what I tried: (my SIM card matches with my iphone, have a valid carrier, and I paid my bill and have a valid phone number)
    1. I connected my iphone to the wifi, and make sure it works,
    2. created an account on apple store, and make sure it has been logged on,
    3. logged that e-mail account that I used to creat apple account on to my iphone ---> Mail,
    4. go to Settings ---> iMessage, and turned it on, and did whatever it told me to do, then it just saying:"Waiting for activation..." for 2 or 3 hours, and told me that activation failed, and the same thing goes with the Facetime.
    I tried with each of them 3 times, none of them are working, so I give up, and asked my friend use to working at the ginues bar in an apple store to help me, so:
    He download iTunes onto my PC, connected my iphone to my PC, and logged my apple account onto iTunes, then did the PC and iphone thing which I don't really understand, and redo what I did above, and my iMessage and Facetime still can't work, and use he's iphone to call mine with facetime, use mine to call his with facetime, none of the calls worked.
    At the end, we even dialed #*5005*7672# to check the SMS service centre number.
    ***BTW, I CANNOT even send text messages to my friends, I can only call them.
    Is there anything else I can try to make the iMessage and facetime working? Or should I just go to the store and ask for an exchange or refund?
    T_T, I just can't believe I can't even send out text messages with the iphone which even the unsmart phones can do.
    Help me, plzzzzzz

    Hey Bogdannae,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    You might need to user recovery mode since it is staying at the Apple logo.

  • TS4268 Is there a real fix to get iMessage and FaceTime working with iOS7 on my iPad?  Tried that 8.8.8.8 and time rest thing but they don't.   Everything else works.... Says the network connection is the problem but only for these two programs.

    Is there a "real fix" to get iMessage and FaceTime working?  Tried the 8.8.8.8 and time,rest thing.   Passwords and Apple ID are ok.  At log in the message says it's a network connection. 
    Any ideas?  Is here a fix coming from Apple?

    Apps are on my iPad and worked fine with iOS 6. When iOS7 was loaded, I can no longer sign in to these two apps using my Apple ID. These apps are on my phone and work fine.  This problem is on on my iPad. 

  • Having Trouble getting IMessage and FaceTime working

    I have been having a problem getting onto IMessage and FaceTime since last night was wondering if anyone can help out! Called Apple today and they couldnt figure it out and have tried things on forums from searching on Google!!!
    When I try signing in it will tell me that: Could not Sign IN! Please Check your network connection and try again!!! When I have it turned on for using it says Waiting for activation!!!

    Same issue, iMessages suddenly stopped working, I wasn't getting ones sent to me, ones I thught I had sent later showed they never were sent. I went to preferences, switched iMesages off, then back on. It said waiting for activation, but never did activate.  I then tried reentering my Apple password but kept getting activation error mesage. Looked at Facetime, it was off, tried to sign in to that, but got same activation error message.
    Did a hard restart of phone, seems to be letting me sign in, send iMesages, but I am not getting ones people send me.

  • Why doesn't my Bose Sound Dock work with my iPod Touch?

    I have a Bose Sound Dock, purchased about 2006 or 7.  It worked fine with the 5th gen iPod Classic, but will not work with the iPod Touch.  Does anyone know why?
    Thanks!

    Very likely because it does not comunicate with iOS devices.  The "dumb" iPods do not use iOS but a very simple OS instead. The first iPod Touch came out in Sept 2007.

  • Why won't the messages and facetime app work?

    I refuse to believe that the only fix for this is to do all the behind the scenes stuff to change out certain aspects of apps.  I would think that because messages and facetime come built into 10.8.2.  I believe that it is on apple's shoulders to fix this with an update or maybe just an updated messages and facetime app.

    I had my messages and facetime in a folder inside applications, once I copied and pasted the new apps into the folder and clicked replace, they worked just fine, maybe some of you have done the same thing!

    This sounds like a problem I read about in this recent thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=977581&start=0&tstart=165
    You'll see a couple of posts that were made by Roy B on the first page of the topic that may fix it for you. I had that issue with a couple of my songs after upgrading to iTunes 7.2 and it fixed it for me.

  • Why won't Xcode install apps-in-dev to my iPod Touch anymore?

    Hey all, I have an iPod Touch 8GB (2nd gen) running 3.1.3, as well as an iPad and a 3GS iPhone (running OS 4.x). I made absolutely no changes to the Touch nor the iPad, and yet as of the latest OS update for the Touch, which I did not install, Xcode will no longer install my dev apps to the device. I only just created the provisioning profile about 2 weeks ago, so it hasn't expired.
    No idea why this is happening, but it's delaying my client work. Crazy thing is, the Organizer window in Xcode says that the Touch's OS is "too old", yet lists the very same 3.1.3 as being one of OSes supported by my current install of Xcode (which I think is 3.2.2 -- I had upgraded to handle OS 4, but then had to downgrade because of technical reasons).
    Anyone else encounter this?

    You'll be most like to get help with this problem if you ask in the developer forums:
