IMessage iPad has pop-up asking you to connect

My apad 2, which is about 4 years old, all of a sudden when I try to view my messages or send a text, the screen is gray and a pop up says I have to sign apple ID to activate my Message i.

Not sure why I do things out of the blue.  so, I registered my account and nothing.  It has been like that for 2 days now.  I rebooted the ipad many times, reset to factory defaults and still nothing.

I went into settings to see if turn off the messages button would do anything, except that I don't have any more than the screen.  The screen that is there is the sign in page for apple I reconnect and still nothing happens.  The account has been verified.  I still e-mail etc.  Any ideas?

You said you have restarted several times iPad so that reset to the factory settings, the question is not resolved

Just a question

Have you restored as NEW to starting a restore iTunes or restore you with reset - erase all content and settings command?

If you do the latter - please try again using iTunes and restore it as a new device

Do not restore the backup immediately - check first to see if your problem is solved

Restore the backup

If the issue returns is something in your content

    • Where exactly you check the security settings of family?
    • Have you set up child account on several computers?

    I suggest you to check your settings on the Family Safety website.

    Check again if you have set the time for your child. You can set time limits to control when children are allowed to log on to the computer. Time limits prevent children to connect during the specified hours. You can set the hours of different logon for each day of the week. If they are connected end their time, they will be automatically disconnected. For more information, see control when children can use the computer.

  • Why Netflix asking you to connect on Apple TV?

    3rd generation Apple TV all up-to-date with software updates etc.

    About 50% of the time when I start the Netflix app from the Apple TV interface, I wonder to return my email and password for Netflix.  I've been doing this for months now and it's a pain to have to enter again with the Apple TV remotely and even "Remote" app on my iPhone.  I contacted Netflix and they say it could be a problem with the device, which is the cause to a loose association to the Netflix account.  Everyone knows this or have any suggestions on how to fix?

    Thank you!

    This seems odd. It's a very small chance that someone is playing tricks on you. If someone else (including the possibility of netflix employees) have your username and password, he or she can log on remotely (from another computer) and log out of your session or all currently connected sessions (who will sign your out automatically) to make you crazy.

    I would go to a computer, sign in, change the password and security questions and answers, wait a few hours, reconnect to netflix to apple tv and see what he does now. I doubt there is a problem with the apple tv because it works very well (if it works fine as you only) with other applications.

    If this does not help then create an apple tv reset to factory settings it may take you 10-15 minutes (save all your hassle of pulling hair...) If you have hair... (LOL). In addition, you can take screenshots of all your settings from apple photo so you remember how to set them up again after the reset. I usually use my smart phone to take pictures rather than things written down... its faster and easier.

  • When Outlook Express asks you to compress files, what happens to my e-mail messages?

    Outless Express has a pop-up asking you to compress my files of e-mail message to free the disk space. If I click YES, my e-mail messages are deleted?

    Your e-mail messages are not deleted when you compact, unless there's a problem. Always backup personal folders on your computer, e-mail or otherwise.
     
     
    Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it?
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
     
     
    Compacting your folders periodically is a must to keep OE works fine and at some point, you may lose all your saved messages if you do not. When you delete or move messages, the space they used remains until you compact.
     
     
    Never touch anything until the compression is finished.* *.
     
     
     
     
    With SP2, Automatic compaction in the background has been removed because of problems he has caused. Now, you will get a prompt to compact after 100 closures of OE, you need to do, and do not touch anything until it's finished. If you compact manually, at your convenience, this will also set the counter to zero. See this for more information: http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm#compact
     
     
    If you are fully patched, you will now see a copy of your dbx files copied to the Recycle Bin as BAK files. If something goes wrong when compacting, the messages can be easily restored from this backup. A compact manual resets also the counter in the back of the registry to zero now.
     
     
    For more information, see the information framed in red here:
    www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2
     
     
    To keep things running smooth and harden faster:
     
     
    Do not archive mail in default OE folders. It will eventually become corrupt and you may lose mail. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.
     
     
    And backup often.

  • My iPad has been removed from secure devices!

    I received an email telling me that my iPad has been removed from my list of secure devices.  Apparently, if I read correctly, because it "has been DELETED."  But my iPad has NOT ERASED!

    I connected to my Apple ID page and restored my iPad to my secure devices.  I use 2 part checking my ID and for awhile, so I see no reason to change my password for Apple, as the email suggested (he recently changed before that), but I AM MISSING SOMETHING?

    Why would this happen?

    Have you checked the full address of the sender to see if it was really Apple or a phishing attempt?

  • You can connect Apple TV thru or with decoder

    Can hang you with an Apple TV cable box at the same time

    Depends on your decoder.

    Apple TV using HDMI.

    If your cable box has a HDMI passthrough you can connect in this way.

    Otherwise, why would you want it to go through the cable box?

    Hi risa212,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! I'm sorry to hear that you are having these problems with your iPhone. If you do not see the Red badge of notification of unread messages in the Messages, you can check the Notification settings to ensure that the notification of the badge has not been disabled:

    Change Notifications settings

    Some applications such as email or social media applications send frequent notifications that could affect the battery life. If you have the show on lock enabled for notifications screen, it could also affect the autonomy.

    To disable or change notifications, go to settings > Notifications and select the app. You can also sort your most recent alerts, order them manually, or group them based on the application.

    If you do not see the notifications for a specific application

    To get notifications, you must be connected to a Wi - Fi or cellular network. If you do not get notifications for a specific application, try the following steps:

    1. Make sure that the application supports notifications. Go to settings > Notifications, select the application and make sure that Notifications are turned on.
    2. Make sure that you are connected to your Apple ID on your iOS device. Go to settings > iTunes & App Stores and enter your Apple ID and password.
    3. Make sure you do not disturb is turned off. Go to settings > do not disturb and tap manual if it is enabled.

  • Is my iPad has a virus?

    I'm one of these scam messages saying I was caught watching a child * on my iPad. The message was just one of those pop up messages like the one say you you have 10% remaining battery. I quickly closed safari, reopened, and removed from the tab. Pop up had an OK button at the bottom, but I press on it. . Can I catch a virus to do that? I know it's a scam message. How do I know if my iPad has a virus? I transformed my iPad and turn it on again and when I did about 10 applications have been opened that I never use. I closed turned them on again and the same apps were opened in the same order. Also my safari changed for the Google Desktop instead of the normal site.i mobile version I'm on iOS 9.1.

    You have made the right choice. You will get a pop up virus.  You can also go to settings > safari > clear historic data and Web site to get the pop up to go further if necessary. -AJ
