iMessage keeps logging me out automatically about 2 seconds after I sign in. How to fix this?

Hello remy161,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

We know it's important to have iMessages available on your Mac, and we're happy to assist.

Open System Preferences. Select Apple ID. Are you signed in to your account there?

Is your Mac connected to Wi-Fi? Make sure it's not connected to VPN as this may block the connection to the Apple servers.

If you need more help, please reach out to us directly here: Get Support

Have a great day!

See if anything here helps.
