You probably have the two power wires hooked up to the ignition. One wire is for the memory and has to be hooked up to a permanant power source whereas the main power wire can be hooked up to an ignition or a permanent power supply. Check your wires.

your +12V constant wire behind the radio isn't connected properly, or a fuse is blown.

probably a yellow wire, with an in-line fuse.

Well it depends. If you want your head unit to turn off when you switch off your ignition, your main power wire has to be hooked to the radio fuse, and your memory wire will have to be connected to a fuse that always had power. You will know wich one it is by seeing what works in your car without the key being in the ignition. Once you find that out, you can tap in the memory wire there.

Option two: Your head unit always has power. Hook up both wires to an "always on" fuse or directly from the battery. Be sure to put an extra fuse on that wire. 15A should do it.
