Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hello,
My ipad never verifies my email address on facetime or imessage, i have never used either of the apps.
Everytime i try to activate the account it starts with:
Enter apple id----- when i enter it, it goes to choosing the email address i want to use, when i have chosen that, it says verifying, and goes back to enter apple id.
Am i the only one with this problem? And how do i solve it?
Thanks already.

None of the solutions seemed to have worked for me. iOS 6.1.6 iPod touch 4th gen
I spoke to a senior advisor this afternoon and I was told it's a known issue and they are currently working on it. He told me it could take up to a couple of weeks to resolve. We will all have to sit tight and wait I'm afraid 😟
in Settings/iCloud click on your name and if it asks for your password enter it. Then go back to iMessage or FaceTime and try to login.
I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In
Verifying FaceTime and iMessage
