Self-Destructing Messaging App authorization trouble

I've followed everything in the tutorial so far and its going well, however when I go to sign a user up, it tells me, "Sorry! Unauthorized" It's coming from my else {} condition, I know that. But I'm not sure what's wrong and why it's doing that.

Any ideas would help! Thanks

Here's my code for the else{} 

else {
        PFUser *newUser = [PFUser user];
        newUser.username = username;
        newUser.password = password;

        [newUser signUpInBackgroundWithBlock:^(BOOL succeeded, NSError *error) {
            if (error) {
                UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Sorry!"
                                                                    message:[error.userInfo objectForKey:@"error"]
                                                                   delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
                [alertView show];
            }
            else {
                [self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
            }
        }];
    }
}
