Re: iMessages from iPhone to iMac

Andrew I went to Settings + Messages and made sure iMessages was turned on. Next I have “iMessages can be shared between iPhone, iPad, iPod and Mac. Learn more.”. And “Send and Receive” with my cell number. I can tap on this and get a choice of switching to Apple ID, An Email and/or my cell

Re: iMessages from iPhone to iMac

Hi Angus, On your iphone go to settings/messages and make surre iMessages is on, and to the right text messages is on. Activate text messages button and approve your imac. There will be a code sent to your imac which you then have to enter into your iphone. I found that bit a bit tricky.

Re: iMessages

Is your target using iMessage or is it traditional texting? If iMessage it will appear on all 3, however, if it’s a traditional text message you need to enable text forwarding on your other machines. Let me know if that helps at all. > On Sep 19, 2016, at 6:48 PM, E.T.

Re: iMessages drive me nuts sometimes!

It sounds like you don't have all your devices set p to receive from all your addresses and numbers. On iOS, go to Settings Messages, and find the place near the bottom where all the emails and numbers tied to your Apple ID are. Make sure they are all selected. On the Mac, go to the Messages

Re: iMessages drive me nuts sometimes!

Hi, Further to what Alex has mentioned, I usually set my iPhone and Mac to only use my phone number. That is, when I send messages from my Mac, it appears to the receiver that I've sent it from my phone. By doing this, all messages from me will stay within the same thread, not showing up as

Re: iMessages drive me nuts sometimes!

The people I iMessage have all my email addresses and my phone number stored in the same contact on their devices. This way, all messages always come from me, no matter what. Of course, I have very few iMessage contacts - most people use Android and/or Windows, so this isn't an issue for me.

Re: iMessages drive me nuts sometimes!

Phew, thank you both! I just went in and tweaked my settings. The key for me seemed to be make it look like my Mac is sending from my phone number. I sware a long time ago, I had it set up like this and things were in sync nicely. *Shrugs,* fingers crossed this works out well. I have

Re: iMessages drive me nuts sometimes!

Glad it's working. Fair warning: even though my messages sync up like yours now do, I sometimes find that the Mac won't get messages for a while. My phone always does, but I might need to close and re-open messages, or send a message to someone, or even restart the computer, before Messages on

Re: iMessages?

Maria, were you able to do this under Mountain Lion? Also do the people you're trying to iMessage actually have iMessage turned on and activated? This is normally automatic for phone numbers but not for Apple Ids. E-mail Facebook and iMessage christopher...@gmail.com On 08/11/2013 01:12,

Re: iMessages Deletion

That's I Messaging in my opinion isn't very cool yet as we are not having a great experience with it because not everything is synchronised yet. When I can send iMessages from one device to another using my phone number (just incase I do not wish to use my Apple ID) then I'll say it's cool.

Re: iMessages Deletion

Kawal, I used to agree with that view, then I realised that I hold my phone number more secretive then my e-mail address, and as such, I was happy to use that for iMessages. Regards, Neil Barnfather Talks List Administrator Twitter @neilbarnfather TalkNav is a Nuance, Code Factory and

Re: iMessages Deletion

I am probably old fashioned Neil, in that if I'm going to write an I Mesage then I'd only write it to the friends that I value and hold dear. I'd only give my phone number to the people that were close to me. I feel very odd when I receive E-mail I Messages but each to their own. Kawal. On 11

Re: iMessages Deletion

That was the point I was going to make. There are many people I e-mail that I wouldn't want having my phone number in a million years. haha. And its not like you, or the person your messaging will take much notice. Especially the sender. Once you've selected your e-mail, you really don't
