• iMessage/Facetime activation on iOS 10 bug

  Hello

  The bug appeared after the first intentional reboot after iOS 10 updated, my iPhone 5 has been disconnected for a few hours. When it started I started to receive petitions of iM/FT on reboot or a random time after even if iM/FT completely!

  I did not move my SIM card. If I refuse to activate iM I can't see my phone number in the Contacts section.

  The same bug persists on the iPhone of my 5s wife while his phone has never been disconnected except 10.0.2 update.

  Hi Valsh,

  Here is how to fix iMessage / FaceTime activation do not question.

  Before you begin, you'll need sort these things:

  • Make sure that in the phone application, you got your registered number. On top of "Contacts", you should see your registered number (My Number :). If not, you will need to go to settings → → my phone number and enter your number.
  • Make sure that the Date and time (in general) are correct. Set to "Set automatically" to ensure that the time zone is correct and the iPhone is at the right time.
  • Also make sure you have a working network. Problems of Wi - fi can cause iMessage activation problems therefore have active cell.
    For some users, the message for activation goes out as an international SMS. Make sure that your carrier allows these and you have a sufficient amount to send them.

  
  

  1. contact your operator

  First of all, make sure that your carrier supports iMessage or not. Contact the support team of carrier and check any condition limiting on your iMessage, blocks or text filters.

  2. airplane mode

  As strange as it sounds, maybe you should try this method if nothing else works. We found the airplane mode activation mode in one of the discussions. It sounds simple, and if it is correct, it would be nice, right?

  Here's how it works:

  Step #1. Get off at scroll → settings touch Messages and turn offiMessage (also turn off FaceTime)

  Step #2. Turn on airplane mode. WiFi will be disabled automatically.

  Step #3: Turn ON Wifi.

  Step #4. Return to Messages and ignition iMessage.

  Step #5. You will be prompted for your Apple ID if you have not yet added it. (otherwise, you get no notification)

  Step #6. Now, go back to the settings and disable airplane mode.

  Step #7. For the most part, you will see a notification that says "your carrier may charge for SMS" - press OK

  Step #8. If this is not the case, go to Messages, disable iMessage and then turn on again.

  Step #9. In a few moments, iMessage should be enabled.

  Step #10. You will see a greyed number and e-mail ID. A little later, the number should be checked, and that's all.

  
  

  3 Apple ID disconnect, connect

  Sometimes, you just need to logout of your identifier Apple and then sign in again.

  Step #1. Under Settings → Message, scroll up to where it says 'Send and receive'and tap on it.

  Step #2. Type on the Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.

  Step #3. Now turn off iMessage.

  Step #4. Wait for a while (toggle Wifi) and then turn on the iMessage.

  Step #5. Enter the details of your Apple ID now and try to reactivate iMessage

  4. set or restore

  If things do not work, you must first reset the settings of your location, then the iPhone. Reset is just a force so restart your data stays secure. After the reset, you will just connect with your Apple and implementing iMessage like new.

  If this fails, you may need to restore the iPhone as new or from a backup.

  Hope this helps,

  See you soon.

• Code of FaceTime activation condition

  I'm deaf and I'm frustrated by Apple.

  I am trying to use Facetime on my MacBook, but it keeps saying "you cannot connect to FaceTime on the Mac at this time. To use FaceTime with the Mac, contact the Apple Support and provide the code below. [code redacted] [name redacted] "I then click on the button 'contact support '.   And here, it gives me an 800 number to call to get my Facetime with my MacBook.     APPLE, YOU IDIOTS FLOWERING.  I'M DEAF.

  I CALLED THE NUMBER OF 1-877-204-3930 'HEARING' (WHICH I GUESS IS A TTY NUMBER) - BUT NO ANSWER! ***

  SUPPORT CHAT THAT APPLE ISN'T GOING TO HELP ME, EITHER.    APPLE APPLE SUPPORT TWITTER WON'T HELP, EITHER.

  I've got Facetime activated on my iPhone 5 c, both MacBook and iPhone 5 c are on the same wireless network, all the prerequisites.

  How to make ŒUVRE of Facetime on my MACBOOK without having to dial the 800 number?  Is there still a certain NUMBER of SMS to contact Apple with?    Apple dropped the ball with deaf customers.   (Facetime works fine on the iPhone 5 c, incidentally).

  Any other deaf people there who faced this problem?  If so, were you able to solve through the deaf with Apple channels (if they?)

  Thank you.

  IF THE AppleID SITE IS SECURE AND has a PLACE FOR YOU to ENTER the INFORMATION of CREDIT CARD... THEN WHY IN THE BLUE FLAMES CANNOT DEAF ENTER THE CODE THAT IS PROVIDED TO US AND ASK US FOR THE WHAT QUESTIONS YOU WANT ANSWERED TO VERIFY OUR IDENTITY AND THEN WE HAVE OUR FACETIME TO OUR MACS!

  Thanks in advance to anyone (at Apple or otherwise) who can help me solve this problem.

• iMessage and facetime activation requires after each reboot.

  Hello

  I updated my iphone 6 + with ios10 update and since after that whenever I restart my device I need to reactivate my cell phone for iMessage and facetime and make me pay for activation causing SMS carrier charges.

  To confirm that I'm not changing any how sim or anything like that just a simple reboot and I need to recheck my number every time with activation of SMS.

  Hey pulkitgupta23,

  I understand that you have a problem with your iPhone and iOS 10 where you have to reactivate your phone number for iMessage and FaceTime, every time that you restart your iPhone. We want to help you to get to the bottom of this and resolve this problem, so let's start with a few basic steps. I have some suggestions for you in the following article that could help us solve it correctly:

  If you get an error when you try to activate FaceTime - Apple Support or iMessage

  Check your camera settings

  1. Make sure that you are connected to a Wi - Fi or cellular data. If you use an iPhone, you will need the SMS messaging to activate your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. Depending on your operator, you might be charged for the SMS.
  2. Go to settings > general > Date & time and make sure that you have configured your time zone correctly.

  Stop and restart iMessage and FaceTime

  1. Go to settings > Messages and turn off of iMessage.
  2. Go to settings > FaceTime and turn off FaceTime.
  3. Restart your device.
  4. Turn on iMessage and FaceTime.

  Try following these procedures, such as written and let us know the results. If the problem is still not resolved, try to provide as much detail as possible in your message tracking, including information on the first time, you have noticed the issue and source of your internet connection when the question is displayed. Thank you for joining the Apple Support communities with your questions!

• FaceTime activation problem

  There is a problem for users in Serbia (Telenor network users?). For about a week can not activate Facetime or iMessages. Activation works only via AppleID, but not via the network (Telenor Serbia). It says "awaiting activation" and then, after about 12 hours, he said: he failed.

  We tried to contact our support network (Telenor Serbia), but they told us that everything on their side, and this problem is with Apple, which does not back activation sms send.

  So far we all have very high bills, trying to activate these services, without success.

  Could you please help us, in examining this issue, or at least tell us where is the problem?

  P.S., Since we do not have our country (?) on the list of countries supported, we can speak directly with local Apple support, so I hope that someone will actually reads this and tries to solve it.

  Same thing here. It seems to be <>- question Apple Telenor because users of other two networks in Serbia (VIP Mobile and Telekom Serbia) do not have this problem. Our local Telenor representatives say that their network is working very well and they have contacted Apple about this.

• The iMessage and Facetime activation failed on El Capitan, after update

  I've updated the OS X of El Capital, and since I can't activate iMessage or Facetime. They just keep trying to connect and not, or when an iMessage connects, I try to check the box "Enable this account", it keeps loading and nothing happens. I have attached an entry in the console app: http://pastebin.com/9sNL5hrv

  Any help?

  Hello

  The stuff of Pastebin simply confirms that you are not connected.

  Go upstairs to the left Menu Apple and select "at about this Mac"

  In El Capitan (Yosemite) the Preview tab displays the serial number.

  Can see you your?

  In system preferences > users and groups to enable the guest account option or create a 'test' Mac user account.

  Log on to your regular Mac user and the other account and set up Messages > iMessages account.

  It connect?

  If you have the serial number visible (present) BUT impossible to connect the two Mac then the Apple ID used user account has been blocked at the server iMessages.

  Are there opportunities you have migrated this Mac from another Mac user?

  If yes the keychain could contain info on the 'bad' serial number.

  Go to Applications/Utilities and open Keychain Access app.

  Have "Login:"Passwords"at the bottom left and top left."

  Find the right pane for "ID: YourApple ID- Auth Token" and delete it (the bit "your Apple ID" should be an email)

  Try again Message.

  It may not work because this security feature may have blocked your ID (specifically the Mac) on the iMessages server.

• I recently bought an iphone 6s and I'm having a hard time activating my number imessage FaceTime.

  I recently bought an iphone 6s and I'm having a hard time activating my number imessage FaceTime. I migrated to an iphone 6 and where everything worked like a charm to a nightmare without end I tried all support apple suggests more change my sim card, twice, even try different phone numbers did not work. I spoke with my carrier to check any international obstacle on my serve - no luck there. Contacted by phone - apple support chance either. I EVEN DEMANDED TO REPLACE MY UNIT WITH a DIFFERENT ILS DID and guess what - STILL NOTHING! I'm running out of ideas and patience. I even tried my number deauthorised for imessage/facetime and the Lady at apple support had no idea they could that, even if Apple has a webpage set up for that matter! Last but not least, I charged a sum of rediculus of money for "Invincible" sms for activation of apple through my device for activation - ALL for NOTHING! Can someone in the Apple support give me a solution to this?

  What country are you in and who is your provider? iMessage and FaceTime activation use SMS to the Apple activation servers to the United Kingdom. If you use a carrier not supported, it may not work. If you use a supported media, make sure you have your account set up properly for an iPhone.

• Unable to sign in Facetime/Imessage

  Hello

  I am trying to connect to Facetime on my ipad but get ~ Facetime Activation... impossible to contact the server of Facetime. Try again.

  This happened for a few days now.

  I am able to connect to the itunes app store

  Thank you

  I have exactly the same problem. I have an ipad 2, using 9.2.1. I have problems with Facetime and iMessage. I tried all of the suggestions I found on the internet, such as:

  • hard reset (duh!);
  • Logging out of my ID apple and logging, then return
  • turning my date and time setting to set automatically.
  • turn on airplane mode, then turning on wi - fi;
  • Restore my factory default network configuration.

  Somehow, iMessage features have been restored, although I can't figure out why it was restored. I checked after each blow dry and found no change. Then all of a sudden, it was restored to iMessage.

  I still can't use Facetime. I'm reluctant to try to do everything above again because I'm afraid that I'll lose iMessage.

• iMessage/Facetime not to activate iPhone 5s

  Hey guys,.

  I gave my mom my old iPhone 5s to upgrade its iPhone 4S. While trying to activate iMessage or Facetime (using mobile phone) - activation fails. It is said 'Activation' and in 1 minute, it fails. I contacted my operator Vodafone Romania and they have confirmed that number of iMessage is not blocked and even reset some settings of my network at their end. Always the same question.

  If during the 1 minute the "activation" appears under the iMessage/Facetime activation code I choose ' use my apple ID to send iMessage/Facetime ", I get my credentials for appleID and I press activate it if sits for about 1 minute, trying to"activate using my credentials"and then fails.

  My questions are:

  1. his old iPhone 4S is not called factory. I just out of the sim card, replaced by a SIM from nano and placed in the iphone 5 s. Y at - it a mistake to activation by using his phone number because the apple servers see that same phone number has been used to activate his previous phone? (I disabled imessage and facetime on iphone 4S now)

  2. is there a number of devices that I am allowed to have use my appleID? Or use facetime/imessages with? I have 3 iphones (2 in fact, since 1 is the old iphone 4S) and 1 iPad.

  3. I already tried resetting the iphone and connected to itunes, tried to activate 4 g network using appleID on wifi and more. Any other place on the iphone5S where I get my credentials of appleid work - but not for facetime or imessage. You have any other suggestions for me to try?

  Thank you

  I just checked with my carrier again. There are 20 + messages sent in the imessage Center, and they have all been charged. Is there a problem with the apple servers? The number of messages have been sent to is:

  I am able to Skype, but no Facetime.    And I don't have iMessage or Facetime activated in any other place.

  I have not paid for any service Facetime anywhere.  What it takes to work Facetime, or is there something else that does not?

• Activation of FaceTime/Imessage

  My old mobile number indicates Facetime and Imessage and activation keeps being unsuccessful or an error has occurred, probably because the sms goes to the old number. I've updated everything, I did a reset, I did a factory reset and set up as new, I made sure my information is correct by identifying Apple/contacts, etc., sometimes it shows same im connected to an old account that I have even more, although when I go to ID it shows, signed to current ID. I can however still use facetime and Imessage can someone help?
