iMessage and FaceTime unable to sign in (IOS 9)

HI, ever since I updated to IOS 9 yesterday on my iPad 4, i have been unable to connect to imesssge. Whenever I try to sign in straight from the imessage app, it either says "error with activation" or "error activating facetime." Please help, and thanks in advance. Edit: I'm trying now and nothing shows up, it doesn't do anything now.

iOS 9, null

Hi there,

Not sure if you solved your problem but i had an issue with not being to activate iMessage on my mac air. A very helpful apple technician resolved by simple going to my date and time settings and ticking the automatic setup as I had tried to set them manually. Apparently it is a security feature of Macs. Anyway, thought i would pass it on as quality customer service is often missing these days but this guy was awesome and fixed the issue in five minutes after my three days of torture.
