Hi olamide31,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.


We'd like to help, however we do not know which Mac, iPhone, or iPad model etc, that you are using,

or

which MacOS, iOS, iPadOS etc., version isinstalled.

and

whether the Messages app has just stopped working, or whether it still needs to be set-up for use.

________________________

Some trouble-shooting tips:

Try updating your hardware with the newest available software.


If it has been updated, try restarting the device (deletes temporary file setc., and can often restore order)


Check that you are signed (to your device) with your Apple ID:

Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support


What to do: If you can’t turn on or sign in to iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support


If your device is in low-powermode, try using the full power;


All the best :-)
