Authentication Code Error When Logging Into iMessage and FaceTime?

Hey everyone!

So I've been trying for the past while to log into my iMessage and FaceTime account. Whenever I try, I always get an "authentication error" notification in red on the bottom. I've tried troubleshooting this myself, but it seems like none of the solutions are working.

Has this happened to anyone else? BTW - I'm having these issues on my MacBook Pro. I don't own any other Apple products. Logging into my Apple Account online works just fine.

Thanks for anyone who can help,
