HI guys sorry to bring back this thread. what worked for me is the Date and Time settings. Once i set it to 'set automatically' it worked instantly! cheers!

Exellent thanks, worked straight away.

I tried changing my DNS but that did not resolve the problem for me. Facetime login was working from mac-book pro connecting through my wireless router but login from ipod was failing through the same wireless router. The network connections worked fine for other apps like safari.

What resolved the issue for me reset of network connection through settings->general->reset

I have this same problem, did you solve it?and if you did what did you do?thanks.

After around 8 frustrating hours of trying to get FaceTime, iMessage and the email working I decided to google it and came across this site and answers. I also made a visit to PC world with no success. I kept entering my apple I'd and password and email and password and it kept saying incorrect or just throwing me back to the beginning to try again. I knew my passwords were right. After tearing my hair out I read the various solutions here and decided to check that the date and time were correct as this had been the problem for a few other people. I knew they were displaying the right time and date but in fact I had unknowingly set the time zone to somewhere in the USA instead of London England when I changed this huuuurahhhh it worked I'm up and running. Thanks apple community support you cracked it!

Thanks Isidore 750
