Q: Facetime  Apple  ID  server problem

Hi,  Face Time,  version 1,0,5 (170) ,   is telling  me  that it is  unable  to  connect   my  Apple  ID   to  the  server. 

I  have  been  through  the  trouble  shooting  recommendations  to  no avail.

I*m  able  to  connect  to  the  app store, ( and  here ) without  any  fuss, so  it's  not  a  wrong  password  mistake.

I saw on a  Face Time  Community  thread that  other people (  3 or 4 )  are  having  the  same  message.

When  i tried  to post  there  i was unable  to log on to it. so  hence  here i am.

I'm  person  of  little  brain,  about as technical  as a door stop.

How  long  would  it  take  for  Apple  corp  be  aware / take  to  fix  a  problem like  this ?

Any  thoughts  would  be  appreciated.

    Greetings fin64,

     

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

     

    I understand that you are unable to sign in with your Apple ID to FaceTime on your Mac and are receiving a server error. In this situation, I would suggest reading over and working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article which addresses the error communicating with the server.

    Cheers,

    Joe

    Hi  joe_7399.

    Thank you for replying,   I'm  glad  to be able to tell you  that as of Wednesday evening  24th march.

    Face Time is now able to process my  log in  and  all  seems  well. ( it did  this  all by  it  self,  that  is.  no  help  rom  me. )

    I do appreciate  your  taking the  time  and  trouble  to look at  my  problem.

    Best wishes,   fin64.
