My iMessaging and FaceTime is not working. What do I do?

Okay, I have had my 4th generation iPod touch for 4 months and I have gotten the updates too. I have been trying

To get it to iMessage my friends, well every time i try, it says error occurred or just won't send to the iPod or iPhone carrier

(The person that has one) I could send one to myself but that was it. Now it won't do that anymore. I have tried and tried and changed my password three times.

Still nothing. What do I do and how can I get it to iMessage and FaceTime my friends. Because honestly this is getting to be a headache.

Thank you,

What I had to was backup my device's data to either iCloud or iTunes. Once it was backed up I erased all of my settings as if my iPad just came out of the box. You set it up again and it will asked you to either start as new, back up from iTunes, or back up from ICloud. If you want to see if everything works you can set up as new, otherwise just pick the choice depending on where you backed up your information. Eventually it will restore all of your information and your iMessage and FaceTime should be working. It worked for me, if you'd like more/better instructions let me know!!
