Google Talk Messages Only Appear In Notification Center

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, instant messages from Google Talk only appear in Notification Center. (IM's between iCloud and AIM work fine.) On one occasion, I was able to double-click on the incoming IM from Google Talk, and it opened in the Messages app. However, subsequent IM's are effectively trapped in Notification Center. I am unable to single or double-click on them to reply. The only indication that I see to know a new IM from Google Talk has arrived is Message's icon bounces once in the Dock, and gets badged with the number of new messages.
This was not a problem using the Messages Beta with Lion, which did not have Notification Center as a feature. The only interesting Messages related message I find in the Console is:
7/30/12 12:11:45.733 pm Messages[5475]: *** WARNING: -[NSImage compositeToPoint:fromRect:operation:fraction:] is deprecated in MacOSX 10.8 and later. Please use -[NSImage drawAtPoint:fromRect:operation:fraction:] instead.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Timothy Arends1, if you want notifications to be displayed in the notification center, just set the one you want to see in the "INCLUDE" section.
Settings > Notifications > Edit > Touch the bars on the right of the app you want to be notified and drag into the INCLUDE section.

Is there any way to receive Google Talk messages in the iPhone Messages (meaning the text messaging app)?

I want to know if there's any way to receive incoming Google Talk messages in the iPhone Messages app? What I mean by this is the app your receive text messages in. The reason I ask is because in the new "Messages" app for the Mac, you can include your Google Talk account.

If I recall correctly, it's possible to send a Google Talk message out as an SMS (though there are apparently limits on how many in a given time period in order to prevent spam). That would be the only way as far as I know. Messages on the Mac seems to have folded some of iChat's features into it, so it works a bit differently.
Best of luck.

Is there a way to prevent hidden calendars from appearing in Notification Center?

I have 4 calendars syncing with my iPhone -- now running iOS5.
One of those calendars is my Google Calendar, which includes birthdays of all my contacts.
However, the iOS also offers a special "Birthdays" calendar that pulls birthdays from the Contacts app. I have that calendar hidden because it is duplicative of my Google Calendar.
Yet, despite the fact that it is hidden from showing in the Calendar app, those entries appear in the new Notifications Center. As a result, birthdays appear twice.
While this is far, far from a big deal and certainly something I can live with, it would be nice if hidden calendars didn't appear in Notification Center. Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing?

Well, since you have multiple calendars synced to one account, this may not work. I was syncing one Yahoo calendar and that's the one that was giving me the duplicate entries on the notification screen. On my iphone I went to Settings -- Mail, Contacts, Calendars -- chose my Yahoo account (which was already inactive) and turned off Reminders (which curiously has an icon next to it that looks like the iOS5 reminders app). I've noticed that not all of my email/calendar accounts have this option, though. Very strange.

Sent messages only appear in the sent folder after restarting Thunderbird

Hi, my problem is that sent messages do not appear in the sent folder unless I restart Thunderbird. I have the sent 'copies' box de-checked as if not although it syncs I end up with two copies (of sent messages).
I am using Thunderbird 31.2.0 on OSX Yosemite connecting via IMAP to ZOHO mail with STARTTLS on 587 for SMTP.
Hope you can advise, I've tried SSL/TLS on 465 also and it is the same. It's a bit of an inconvenience not being able to view the sent messages.
Many thanks

Interesting to know (the RFC violation) but as you say, perhaps not relevant as such, although if ZOHO wasn't auto-placing a copy in sent then I could check the 'place a copy in' option and it would work ok.
Anyhow, I tried your recommendations and yes, I use both an Android and an iPad to also check my mail but with both disconnected from Wi-Fi the problem still persists. There are a few warnings being reported in the TB error console on the Mac but they just relate to 'mso-table-lspace' for my INBOX.
And for info in Thunderbird on my Ubuntu laptop the problem is exactly the same -
'Place a copy' checked - Messages instantly appear in the sent folder but there are two copies.
'Place a copy' de-checked/Cached connections = 5 - Messages only appear in the sent folder after restarting Thunderbird
'Place a copy' de-checked/Cached connections = 1 - Messages appear in the sent folder on clicking out of the folder and back in.
On Ubuntu there is nothing at all in the error console.
I can work with how things are at this stage as I don't live in the sent folder (rather the inbox), and when you click into it (with the connections cache at 1) the messages do appear, so I suppose that's actually ok.

How can I make Skype appear in notification Center

Hi, I use Skype a lot, is there someway I can make my Skype notifications appear in notification Center, Thanks.

If the app supports Notification Center it will show up automatically. Try updating Skype and after the update has installed, resart the mac.
If it still doesn't show up in NC, then it doesn't support Notifications.

Lync does not appear in notification center

I have the latest version of Lync installed (4.2.6609.0000). When installing the app (I have tried deleting and reinstalling several times) the app does not ask me if I wish to receive push notifications. Therefore I assume this is the reason it does not appear in notification center and therefore unless actually in the app I do not see chats if in screen lock or another app etc.
On the previous version of Lync I had the same problem. However, I found that if I loaded Lync, powered off, powered back on again and reloaded Lync I could get it to appear in Notification Center and it worked in the background/screenlock etc.
Is there a way to force it into Notification Center so it will work in the background? When deleting I use app center via 3G so do not connect to a PC etc.
Any ideas or help here. Great tool, but a little useless if it cannot notify me of conversations from other users.

With the previous version of Lync if you loaded Lync, powered off, back on, loaded Lync it would appear in notification centre. But this doesn't seem to work now.
However, as I mention other colleagues with the same phone, IOS version etc do work.

Missing Messages share button in Notification Center

Upgraded to 10.9 from 10.8 (via the GM) and I do not have the Messages share button in Notification Center, just the Twitter one.
Anyone else seeing this? Any idea of a fix?

I didn't need to remove the iCloud account, I simply disabled the account in Messages.app and re-enabled it. Now I have the Messages share button

Mail not appearing in notification center... Also, gears not appearing in the mail app.

I tried to configure my mac to enable it to receive mails in the notification center but cant. i have tried to send an email from other IDs but havent received any banner or alert while using my mac. i have checked the show alerts and banners in notification center. Do i have to keep the window of the mail app in a specific position to receive alerts in the notification centre? Also, the gears are not appearing in the mail app when i fetch for new mail. please help..

I'm also having this problem.
Notifications receives alerts from Reminders app, but not Mail.
I've set preferences in Mail for 'Inbox Only' and 'All Mailboxes', sent test mail from ISP webmail and Google (Mail is not setup to receive from this account) - still no notifications.
I had previously used Growl (v1.4) and GrowlMail very successfully (with 10.7), but while upgrading to Mountain Lion I was informed that GrowlMail was incompatible so I deleted it.
While testing this problem of not receiving Mail Notifications I have disabled Growl and rebooted.
Like others here:
Checked: Notifications setup
Checked: Mail setup
Rebuilt permissions
Rebooted
Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks.

Some notifications don't appear in Notification Center

I've been wondering about this for some time. I pressed the home button on my iPhone to wake it up and saw a quick glimpse of a number of notifications, including some from Twitter, Facebook, etc. This got my curiosity up. However, Touch ID kicked in and logged me into the phone.
I wanted to see what those notifications were, so I turned the phone off and then on again, but, because they had displayed already, the notifications did not display again.
So I dragged down to Notification Center to see what I had missed, and on the Today tab all it gives is weather, a calendar event, stocks and that there are three events scheduled for tomorrow. On the Notifications tab it just says what apps were updated yesterday.
Okay, maybe some apps are blocked from Notification Center, so I went to Settings > Notifications and there are only 3 apps under Do Not Include and this does not include Twitter, Facebook, etc.
I'm wondering why certain notifications appear on the lock screen but not in Notification Center, which seems to defeat the purpose of the whole thing.

Timothy Arends1, if you want notifications to be displayed in the notification center, just set the one you want to see in the "INCLUDE" section.
Settings > Notifications > Edit > Touch the bars on the right of the app you want to be notified and drag into the INCLUDE section.

Tweets not appearing in Notification Center

Hi there
Quick question.... Is the new ML Notification Centre meant to show all the tweets that come into my Twitter feed thus removing the need to have a Twitter client installed?
I have entered my Twitter account into the Mail Accounts preference pane and the Twitter account is showing in the list in the Notifications Pref Pane but so far no tweets have appeared in Notifications even though the Twitter client says there are new tweets to be read.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance
Jonty

You will only get notifications of mentions and direct messages send to you. It will not show your timeline.
"And when someone mentions you in a tweet or sends you a direct message, you’ll get a notification right then and there."

"Ask to buy" requests not appearing in notification center (family sharing)

I understand that if one misses an "ask to buy" request from a family member from the lock screen, it is supposed to be available in the notification center. However, these requests are not being logged in my notification center. There doesn't seem to be a setting in Settings to turn on or off these type of notifications.
Any idea why they are not appearing in the notification center?

Hi,
Same issue here. I've logged in and out of the AppStore and still the same issue. I have 3 kids, each with their own device, and each one is REQUIRED to "Ask to Buy". Neither my wife or I get any notification to approve. I've checked my Mac as well as the Family Sharing on both iPhone 6's and everywhere shows our family listings correct.
It cannot be THIS HARD to figure out. Apple must be having some issues, however this is extremely frustrating. No one can buy any apps?!??!?! You'd think they'd like to sell more stuff?!
Please help! Now my son needs apps for school and he cannot get them on his iPad. Even on the App store it says "approve on this device with parent" and that link won't work.
Thanks.

Mail icon not appearing in notification center in settings menu.

I am not receiving any email notifications after upgrading my iPhone 4 from 6.0.1 to 7.0.2.
I have checked Settings->Notification Center to see if it is in Include or Do Not Include, however there is no option for Mail anywhere.
It was there before the upgrade.
Emails still come in when I open the Mail app but I don't known when a new one has arrived as there is no notification and the badge does not show a new email.
Do I need to restore and reinstall 7.0.2 or is there something else I am missing?
Thanks for your help in advance.

do a reset by holding the power and home button until the apple logo appears ignoring the slide to power off.open your notification after tthe phone restarts and see if the settings for mail appears.
