Q: FaceTime registration error - other ideas?

I am still having trouble with this Registration error using FaceTime.

I don't use FaceTime very often, but I have used it successfully in the past.

I first received the error about a month ago (Feb-Mar 2012).

 

I am using the Apple firewall:

Firewall Settings:

 

  Mode:          Limit incoming connections to specific services and applications

  Applications:

  com.apple.FaceTime:          Allow all connections

  com.apple.iTunes:          Allow all connections

  Firewall Logging:          No

  Stealth Mode:          No

 

The hosts file has no mention of apple.com or verisign.com:

##

# Host Database

#

# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface

# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.

##

127.0.0.1          localhost

255.255.255.255          broadcasthost

::1             localhost

fe80::1%lo0          localhost

 

and the date and time are correct via time.apple.com

 

Any additional thoughts?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
