iMessage and FaceTime not working

Thank goodness!! I thought I had messed up my phone for sure!

Hi,

It's back!!!!

Well, that was a whole day spent angry!

Looking at comments arround the net, it does seem to have been some system problem.

At least I learnt alot from you guys,

Thanks,

Jim

Just an FYI for those still having difficulty. I needed to restart my phone to get iMessage to work again.

Been roaming forums and tech sites for about a month now. Still no working solution for me. AT&T GoPhone is my carrier, and my Facetime and iMessage both just stopped working for me some random day. Didn't update or make any changes of any type, but they both just stopped working. Also, when I sign out and back in, both activate without any errors or anything, but still won't work. Super annoying.

For me I find solution, it was saddently easy. I just noticed that my carrier plan was used, and I got no Internet access via 3G or edge. I just turn off mobile Internet and set up my home wi-fi, after all i got my at ones. And if you have problems with imassege and you have iPhone or iPad with 3G try to turn off mobile Internet and connect to wi-fi.

I have to give HUGE THANKS to Ryneev!!!

I wouldn't have figured that the date & time setting was the source of the problem. I travelled to Canada last week and switched the "Set Automatically" option to "off". Who would have thought that this would cause a sign in issue with iMsg and FaceTime?! Goodness, Apple needs to fix this!

Thank you so much, I have not had this for days and it works thanks!

Hello everyone, well i had the same problem here with my new ipad. Am from Egypt. All I had to do was change the store I am on from Egypt to USA. Now I can sign in on iMessage and FaceTime with my apple ID. This problem is concerned with certain regions. I hope they are working on it. Hope I was of little help ;)

Did u manage to find a fix for the iMessage problem. I'm I. south Africa and have the same problem for a month now.

change the DNS NO to 8.8.8.8 , this should probably fix. wifi settings in your phone

Tried this a long while back, and over again a few times here and there just in case. Has absolutely no effect in my case, neither does the other dns change.

actually then dns and router number should not be the same. in my case it is different and worked. so try like this

I changed my DNS and it seems to work for me, at least for now that is. TXS! I have been so frustrated with this issue since it stopped working. It worked perfectly from March of last year until about a month ago. Very frustrating and disappointing.

Well i live in Canada, and this worked for me hopefully it works for you guys aswell.

Click

Settings > General > Reset

Click Reset Network Settings and Reset Location & Privacy

Hope this works for you aswell.

tnx. It worked
