Why is my iMessage app not updating?

I have used (and LOVE) the iMessage app on my Macbook Pro.  Has worked perfectly, even through iOS7 upgrades, and the Mavericks update, as well.
However over the past few days, it will not update correctly.  I can send messages from it, but it does not show the incoming messages most of the time.  They come through just fine to my phone and iPad, but not on my Mac...  any thoughts as to why this is occurring?

Turns out that Feedburner was overruling the code in my XML with their "Smartcast" settings, which I have now disabled. Weird!

  • Why are my icloud apps not updating?

    Whether or not my iCloud LISTS or CALENDARS update across all of my app devices they are supposed to is a hit or miss deal. Sometimes they do quickly, sometimes it takes forever, sometimes not at all. Why??

    Syncing hasn't worked for me for a couple of days now. It must be something on Apple's end.

  • Why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

    why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

    Sounds like we have a similar problem.  Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine.  Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black.  I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there.  However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do.  The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died.  The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either.  Took to Verizon, they couldn't help.  Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues!  One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone.  Just wouldn't work at all.  Did everything suggest and still not good.  Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days.  Very strange, and all on the 5C.  What did you do?  Is it working now?

  • Why do Apps not update after installing iOS6?  They just hang there!

    WHy do apps not update after installing iOS6?

    Each time? every day? Just plain crazy! Updates happen automatically on your mac....why not the same thing on ipad/iphone?
    If the app was purchased on my phone with my account, surely they do not need to "verify" my credentials each time. If my phone was stolen and someone purchased a $20 app surely my $300 phone is more important?
    They need to come up with e better solution...when we all have hundred or thousands of apps on our devices what then?

  • Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got me to Agree and nothing happens.  Am doing the update via a Wifi connection.

    Hello,
    Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got the user to Agree to the Terms and Conditions but nothing happens.  The user is doing the update via a Wifi connection.  Current OS version on the device is 8.1.3.  User did a hard reboot of the device and still the same result.  Not tried using iTunes as a workaround as we want to know why it's not updating via a Wifi connection.  Storage space available is 9G.
    If you know of someone who is experiencing the same issue, please let me know the fix.  Thank you.
    Christina

    1. I do not know if this will help you or not. In researching this issue with my wife's iPhone 5c 8GB, the most common answer you will get is to adjust this or that setting, and disable this or that App. These at best are only a band-aide solution at all. The best reply I got was from a Verizon Rep that stated "By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress, or information is being back-up wirelessly and the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data if it is left on". Afterwards, I discovered the exact same information here on the Apple Support Forum to support this statement.
    2. Later onward, I read that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, it will prevent it from going dormant. In which case, this will prevent the iPhone from turning off the WiFi, and keep it connected to the WiFi. So far, this has help the most in controlling the amount of data usage being used, by my wife's iPhone.

  • Ipad mini apps not updating after ios8.2 update

    apps not updating after software update ios8.2 on ipaD MINI WITH RETINA SCREEN

    Turn off any auto-update, if it is on, then tap any of the "circle icons" showing that a download is in progress, in order to stop the download. Then go to the Settings and reset the Network Settings. After the iPad starts back up, then check to make sure no apps are currently in progress of downloading. If any are, stop them again, and reset the network settings again. When it starts up again, none should be in the process of downloading. Then from that point forward, only download manually and never more than two at a time. If it is more than 100 MB, then do only one at a time. If any gets stuck at that point, then stop the download and reset the Network settings.
    That should take care of you for now. We'll see what another update brings ... IOS 8.2 (which might be the next one).

    My iLife v9.03 Install disk is corrupt. Where can I find a download for the the app (not update) at apple support online ?

    I have an iLife 11 disc that doesn't work very well so I tried creating a disk image of it with Disk Utility.  It took two tries but finally got a disk image that I could use to install the iLife 11 applications. Give it a try.

  • Has anyone else had trouble with apps not updating when you update through the app store?

    I'm having trouble with GSN Games app not updating, even though the app store says that it's the most updated version.  Has anyone else experienced this?  My mother's app updated just fine with all the new features and games within the app, but mine didn't update the same.  We both have ipad2 running on ios 7.0.06.  I can't figure this out.  New games were added to the app that I'd like to play, but can't because of this.
    Any suggestions before I contact the app developer?
    Thanks so much for you help.

    I frequently get my connection is to slow for play.
    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Try again.

  • Apps not updating.  Stuck on "Waiting"

    I saw that large thread that was started months ago about apps not updating, getting hung up on "Waiting" then saying "App X could not be updated at this time.  Done?  Retry?" and no matter what you select, you cannot update or even use that app.
    Has this still not been fixed?  People were posting about this issue 5+ months ago.  Do I really need to download some 3rd party software like iExplore to fix this?
    I tried all the basic things listed in that thread, but I cannot believe Apple hasn't addressed this.  Is there some new quick fix I'm missing?

    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Also, make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

    It sounds like your iPad is sleeping or you lose your connection before the process completes.  Try plugging the iPad in to a power out and do the update.  Make sure you have a strong wifi signal.
