Why does not work my iMessage on macMini Hello! So far my iMessage on MacMini has worked perfectly, but today I have tried to send a massage and the application wrote to me "Not Delivered" with a red exclamation mark. I saw the preferences Accounts and my Apple ID was Inactive. When I have tried to "Sign in", I was given this answer "Could not sign in to iMessage. An error occured during activation. Try again."Please help me, how I can correct it.

Can't log in to iMessages using my Apple ID Hey everybody, any help would absolutely be appreciated - I am using a MacBook Air (2018). I have my own personal user on that Mac in which I have no issues whatsoever, all apple services (including iMessage) or otherwise work as expected. Yesterday I created a 2nd user on that Mac for business management. I created a new apple ID for the business and now I'm trying to log into iMessage with the new Apple ID but no matter what I try I get an error. Other services such as App Store, Music, iCloud Drive etc. works perfectly well, only experiencing troubles with logging into iMessage with the NEW Apple ID. Any suggestions?

iMessage not working on my new Mac When I go to log into my iCloud account on my new Mac, it pops up with a message "an error occurred during authentication and on the side bar by my iCloud account it reads (inactive). I know that my iCloud is working and functional but I cannot get iMessage to work from it. Has anyone dealt with this specific problem and if so how do I solve it?
