I am having a problem with iMessage on iPad 2? I have tried several times to log in and eventually get a error message saying PLEASE CHECK YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION AND TRY AGAIN LATER. There is no problem with my network connection. It used to work and I don't know what changed. Anyone out there with some help please.

The member who posted that link hasn't been active since the day he made the post, almost a year ago. It's very unlikely he'll see your request.

Welcome to the forum!

Since the iPad 1 has less RAM then current version iPads, it's always best to try to close out apps that you previously opened. Try some of these immediate fixes if you haven't already and retry your iMessage.

Have you tried to do the following?

1. Force the app to close?
2. Try to restart your iPad?
3. Try to do a reset?

You can try this in order, if an app becomes misbehaves...

Force the app to close down*by pushing the home button twice or by doing a 4-finger swipe to bring up your multi-task bar. This will show all the apps that you have visited. Press the app, until it begins to shake. Close out the apps by pressing the red circle in each app. It will only quit the app and not delete. Than try to re-open the app and test out.

If that doesn't work, restart the iPad by pressing the power switch down to power off.

Third is to do a reset by holding the power switch and home button together until you see the apple logo. Hope that helps!

Well, as an iPod user since 2009, I know most of the tricks but I can safely say I'm all out of ideas. Since buying a MBA and an iphone 5, my ipad 3 wifi is now not accepting my apple ID password. I've changed it 3x now much to the disgruntlement of my entire family and their iDevices asking for new passwords!!! Sigh!

Any suggestions my friends. I'm loathe to reset it as its got a lot of data on it (32gb!)

It looks like every apple app that needs the apple ID password is involved on my ipad. Great!

Nope. Luckily the iPhone and MBA aren't affected so I'm using them but I was advised to reset my iPad. I have my own diary HD app on there and can't export or email the contents out of it. I need to do that before I do anything else. Thank you for asking. It doesn't seem as if anyone knows this one. I've trawled the Internet. I thought apple apps were foolproof but the are not Hayley proof. Lol.

So the other devices took the new password, but not your iPad! How frustrating is that!

Yes, isn't it? I'm still uploading iTunes Match 3 days later. My Internet keeps stopping and after 6-8 hours of uploading that can be really annoying. Oh we'll these things are sent to try us.
Gee thanks for the support Gab? Yes, nothing is Hayley proof!!!! Love you guys.
