After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
No performance issues, but iMessage and FaceTime can't send or receive messages to iPhone telephone number anymore. Also iCloud and iTunes can't retain the Apple ID password and continue to ask for them. Resetting Network Setting, as some have suggested elsewhere, does not work.
