it says my account is inactive and won't let me log in

For awhile now I haven't been able to sign into my messages or FaceTime and I feel like ive tried everything. It says it either had trouble signing in or my account is inactive and I need to sign in but I cant sign in.

Have someone else attempt to sign in using their Apple ID. If they can successfully sign in and use Messages/FaceTime, it may be your Apple ID.Someone I know had this happen and I was able to sign in usingmy Apple ID. After a call to Apple Support and then being elevated to a tier 2 support person, it turned out it was a problem with their Apple ID. It took the software engineers 3-4 days to fix the problem. When calling Apple, make sure you tell them it is an Apple ID problem so you don't get charged.
