Ios7 update. Still no imessaging?
Well I updated my iPhone 4S yesterday to ios7 and ever since then, my imessaging hasn't worked. I turned it on in the settings and it says "waiting for activation". Then I tried connectin through my Apple ID, but that won't let me log in. Everytime I type in my password it says, "check server connection" or something like that. I know my internet is working and I know the password is correct. I tried restarting my phone millions of times and still nothing.
Have you tried a hard restart by holding the power button and square button? That usually fixes bugs.
I think you have to restore it again. Remember to back up first.
IMessage will take 24-48 hours to activate.
You can also try to restore a backup through itunes. Worked for some people.
- Why can't i still update to ios7? I have been to busy lately to sit down for hours and let my iphone update. So today i finally sat down, basically deleted 99% of the things on my iphone and it still won't let me update to ios7! It says you need at least 3.7mb(?) and i'm down to 3.3! Why can't i update?
- Switched from iphone to galaxy s3 and I'm having issues with imessaging? All my friends with iphones are having issues texting me. I don't know what to do. I know it's because of imessage. If I turn that off on my end (My old phone and my ipad) will that fix it?
- Should I update my iTunes even though i still have iOS7? I have an iPhone 4 so I can't get iOS8. But lately iTunes has been sending me messages asking if I want to update, but they're all meant for iOS8. I don't want to download it and have it mess up my phone somehow. But at the same time there are security updates that are usually important. So what should I do?
- Is imessaging with iPhones free? I'm in Korea using only Wi-Fi and want to text my friend in the US who uses Wi-Fi and 3G. Would imessaging be free? Even if one is on Wi-Fi and one is on 3G?
