What is the problem with iMessage?

I have an iPod touch 5th generation and am running iOS 6.1.3 (current OS for all "i" devices). Now, I have been having continuous problems with iMessage. When I try to send a message, the progress bar will appear and then freeze up at about 7/8ths of the way. After a few seconds there will be a red exclamation point next to the message telling me that the message was not delivered. I have tried rebooting my iPod as well as switching off and then back on again iMessage. Eventually messages would start sending again, however today when I was trying to troubleshoot the same problem, I got errors that my contacts which I was trying to text were "not registered with iMessage" which is false because I know for fact that these people use iPhones. At my whits end, I disabled iMessage and am currently trying to re-activate it. I enter in my apple ID, then when I hit "next" a message saying "verifying" comes up; and then I wait for a minute or so and a message pops up telling me that I could not connect to the iMessage server, please try again. I have re-attempted this process several times to no avail. I'm just asking if there's a problem with Apple's server and if so, when will it be fixed?

My ipod touch 5th gen has just started doing that today too. Looking for some answers!

The server that allows FaceTime and iMessage services is currently down. Don't worry. Everyone is experiencing this and Apple will have it back up by tomorrow. You can check the status of the servers below.

  • Problem with iPhones and iMessage? If I send a text to another iPhone it might either not send to the iPhone or, the person gets it and I won't get their message. What's going on? How do I get that fixed?
  • Jailbroken iPhone 4 iMessage problem When I jailbroke my iphone (it was on 6.1.2 I'm pretty for sure) I could see imessage attachments just fine. Now I can see them just in the little box before you click to view but when I click to see it, it's just a white screen with the format. I really don't know how to fix it? Any help? Oh btw I don't have any jailbroken messaging apps.
