Why can’t I activate messages on my iPad?
I don’t seem to be able to activate messages on my ipad. I quite simply can’t type my iCloud password in the box provided and don’t know what to do. Thank you.
iPad, iPadOS 14

Hi naya194,
Thanks for your question in Apple Support Communities, we understand that you're not able to activate iMessage on your iPad.
Let's start with the steps in If you can’t turn on or sign in to iMessage or FaceTime. These steps resolve most issues with signing in.
If that doesn't resolve your issue, go ahead and reach out to us here: Contact Apple Support
Cheers!
