[iMore Question]

I can't set up I message on my ipad. When I try to log in with my Apple ID, it says attempt failed. I have retried multiple times over multiple days with no luck

Go to Settings-General-Reset and them select "Reset Network Settings". Afterwards, make sure your connected to the internet either via Wi-Fi or cellular data and then try again.

Hi, that problem happens more often that you'd think. There are a few things you can try:

- Make you sure that you have the right settings in date-time (preferably set to automatic).
- Make sure your password is right (like you don't have caps enabled)
- Is facetime working right for you? I assume not, so try logging out and then back in with your Apple ID.

I hope any of this helps you fix your problem if not, here is a post from iMore with some more ways to help you fix it --> Having trouble with iMessage or FaceTime on iOS 7? Here's how to fix it! | iMore
