    i have tried signing out of imessage and signing back in. (when i do that and am asked to select my email adress, i see my new number but it is greyed out and i cant select it)

    But under send and receive, my old number is still displayed while my new number isn't.

    how can i download imessage to my macbook

    Hi,
    While I know I know I can be pedantic about the syntax on this - iMessages is a service Apple runs for iOS devices and suitable Macs.
    As QuickTimeKirk has said this means having the right OS to have a version of the App which is called Messages
    This does tend to mean that with the Messages app the account is called iMessages.
    The app can also join the AIM Service, Jabber, Yahoo and have Bonjour conversation on your LAN with other Macs.

  • How can I have IMessage and SMS in the same thread

    My boyfriend has an iPad mini and a non Apple phone that sends SMS.  I know have two separate threads in messages, one for iMessage and one for SMS.  Even though I have added his email that is used to send iMessages to his contact on my phone, it is still showing as two different conversations on my phone.  Is there a way that I can see both types of message as one conversation?  I hope this makes sense.

  • How can I have Mail on my MacBook Pro show only notes and not the iCloud inbox in the Mailboxes column?

    I use iCloud to sync my notes between my computer and ios devices, but I don't want to see the inbox in mail.  Is there any way to hide or remove the icloud inbox in Mail?
    Thanks.

    I appologize, but this should be under iCloud on my Mac not Pc.  Not sure that I can change this.

    I'm very sick of receiving text messages on every device. How can I disable imessage on my macbook pro so I don't receive texts that I wish to receive only on my phone?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you do not want to receive your text messages on your Mac, open Messages, go to Messages menu (in the menu bar) > Preferences > Accounts, choose your iMessage account and untick your phone number or disable your account

  • How can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air?

    how can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air? i dont know my imessages to pop up on my laptop when it turns on. But i dont want to disable imessage totally on my macbook.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, check that Messages is closed when you turn off your MacBook. This is so important because, by default, OS X will reopen all opened apps the next time you start your Mac.
    Apart from that, when you go to  > Shut Down, or  > Restart, in the window you see to restart or turn off your MacBook, unmark "Reopen windows when logging back in". This will avoid that your Mac opens all opened apps the next time you start the MacBook, so Messages won't start automatically at startup

  • How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini

    How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini ?

    Forget trying to use iCloud for this - it won't do what you want.  iCloud syncs certain data like contacts and events, but it doesn't sync "environments" on computers.

  • My ipad imessages are coming up on my husband's iphone. Is that because we share an apple id account. How can we have separate apple id's and still share the same music library.

    my ipad imessages are coming up on my husband's iphone. Is that because we share an apple id account. How can we have separate apple id's and still share the same music library.

    The biggest problem I have is with cross texting. My friends send my a imessage on ipad to ipad and it comes up as message on my husband's phone as well as my ipad?
    My friends definitely do not want my husband seeing their texts. (and I dont really need him to see my responses either)
    Also, apple id is based on my email account, how do I create a new apple id without setting up a new email account?

    I have an iPhone 3G, an iPhone 3GS, and a MacBook on one macmail and mobile me account.  How can I keep mail on the MacBook and iPhone 3 private from the iPhone 3GS?

    Pretty much. I don't understand why you need to worry about MobileMe, though. I'd guess the vast majority of us with iDevices don't have MobileMe accounts at all. That's pretty much why it failed.

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

  • HT3529 I have lost all data on my iphone and the back-up is too old. How can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4? I have all the chats on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    Hi,
    I have lost all data on my iphone by mistake. I needed to restore the phone and I didnt realize my back-up was 1yr old, and now the phone is restored and I've got a year old contact list and iMessage chat history. Luckily my iMessage on the Mac is still valid and has all the chat history. My question is how can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4 from my Mac? I have all the chat history on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.
