I somehow was able to get iMessage and Facetime to work. I'm not sure how I did it, but I took a few combinations of posts, and the next thing I know - it worked. I immediately did a Time Machine and CCC backup on a separate USB drive. That's the good news. I can boot from it out of Clover, and it works perfectly.
This is where I became an idiot.
I opened up the preferences in Facetime, and I was curious as to what countries it had listed in there for options. I accidentally let go of the mouse on Afghanistan (I think). Within a matter of seconds, Facetime and iMessage immediately logged out and, no matter what I do, I get "An error occurred during activation...Try again," and "Could not sign in to iMessage...An error occurred during activation. Try again." My daughter, who has a legitimate account for both cannot login either.
Back to the backup - when I log into my backup, I'm good to go again. I am fearful of reimaging my current Hack SSD with the backup for fear of screwing it up even worse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
