Yes, and yes to both. As I said, any current messages are now synched, but everything in the past never updates, and deletions of those old ones do not carry over. Dave Carlson Oregonian, Woodworker, Engineer, Musician, and Pioneer -- The following information is important for all members

Hi, Hmmm. In the iMessages tab of Messages Prefs, with Settings selected, you should have your Apple ID and a Sign Out button, then the checkbox for enabling Messages in the Cloud, and one VO-right from that is a "Sync Now" button, then the rest of the items such as the table with the list of

Automatic Capture of iPhone Pictures on Mac

New Topic…. I know that I have my photos synched through iCloud. But I’d like also to capture them to my external archive drive. When I connect my iPhone to the Mac, nothing happens, and that makes sense since photos are already backed up to the cloud. How do I get all my photos off the

Hi all, I’ve been keeping up with this thread but now I’m a bit confused. My messages on both devices seem to be sinking okay and if I message my wife on my Mac it’ll update on the iPhone and the other way around. However if I delete a message thread on the phone it’ll stay on the Mac and vice

Hi Kawal, I some times get this also, I find that if I take my earpods out of one ear and put it back in then things kick in to life correctly. Have you tried turning the after shocks off and back on to push the connection back to the phone? I also know that if the phones are connected to

Good to hear that it’s working for some. But none of my past conversations have updated on the Mac. They are all current on the iPhone, which is the older of my two devices. I’ve only had my Mac connected up for a couple months, so I think that is at the root of why my older conversations are
