I can't login to Messages or FaceTime after resetting my password, but all other services seem to work

I reset my password earlier, and haven't been able to login to Messages or FaceTime. All other services (Mail, calendar, appleid.apple.com, etc.) seem to work just fine but I get these error messages even after following the instructions on https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201422 or https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204408. Is there any other solution to this?

Have someone else attempt to sign in using their Apple ID. If they can successfully sign in and use Messages/FaceTime, it may be your Apple ID. Someone I know had this happen and I was able to sign in using my Apple ID. After a call to Apple Support and then being elevated to a tier 2 support person, it turned out it was a problem with their Apple ID. It took the software engineers 3-4 days to fix the problem. When calling Apple, make sure you tell them it is an Apple ID problem so you don't get charged.


You can also try signing in on another device/computer. There have been a couple of posts where people's device/computer was blocked. You will need to contact Apple for that problem also.


There is a contact link.
