iMessage cant log in For a long time, I'm not able to log in to iMessage. After adding my apple id details it says "an error occurred during authentication". I thought it was a temporary problem and now after such a long time I'm sure, the problem is connected to my computer somewhere. I searched the internet for the solution but couldn't find any that work.
