I used ti be able to facetime and send imessages to other iphone users using my data plan and it stopped working. I use t-mobile for the ipad mini. Does anyone else have this issue Or know why this just happened?
iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi, Cellular, iOS 9.3.1
Try this
Sign out of iMessage and FaceTime
Sign out of Find iPhone
Sign out of iCloud
Try a forced restart - After shutting down all open apps using the app switcher - invoked by quick double press of the home button and swiping up on each app till it flies off the screen.
Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons down together till you see logo - then release and allow normal boot up
Then sign back into all of the above
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
Tried it, still not working. Any other suggestions?
Backup the device to iTunes - Restore as NEW (not from backup) using iTunes - see if problem resolves - if yes - restore backup
iMessage and Facetime stopped working on my iPad mini.
