How/Where do iMessages show on laptop?

Okay get iMessage from friend in Europe on iPhone...where do they show up here?

If you are using OS X Mountain Lion, open Messages application to see your iMessages. With Messages, you can send and receive messages from iMessage.
If you don't see sent messages, you may need to select your phone number or mail address to use it with your Mac. Open Messages menu > Preferences > Accounts, select your Apple ID on the sidebar and tick everything under "Send and Receive". Finally, you should see the messages

  • How to have iMessages show up on one device but not the other?

    So I have an iPhone, a MacBook and an iPad that I own and use, this year my school "gave" (we pay for it but it belongs to the school and have to give it back, go private education!) each student an iPad so now i have one from them as well. I use a different Apple ID for my school iPad than I do for my personal devices so that information from my personal devices doesn't end up on the schools iPad which has a massive amount of spyware on it so they can literally see everything we do. I have it set up for iMessage so my 3 personal devices are all synced and use my phone number from my iphone to iMessage, but my school iPad only uses the email from the Apple ID I made specifically for that iPad. I was wondering if there was a way that the iMessages I receive on my school iPad (via the email) can also be received on my other personal devices, but NONE of the messages or other data received on my phone (via my phone number) also be received on the school iPad. So in essence a sort of one way channel. Thanks in advance!
    P.S.- I don't just use the messages to text my friends I use it for professional purposes also as I am on the executive board of several charities and also a high ranking member of my fathers company.

    No, the scenario you describe is not possible. Sorry.

    These are iMessages only.
    He activated iMessage on his iPhone with the same Apple ID that you activated iMessage with on your Mac.
    On your Mac, go to Messages preferences.
    Under the Settings selection for your Apple ID, deselect your brother's phone number for you can be reached for messages at.

  • My laptop wont let me download iMessage onto my laptop, it think its because my software is not up to date.. how do i update my laptop? so i can download it?

    i want to be able to use iMessage on my laptop... but i can't dowload it. Do i have to but the latest software at the Apple store to get iMessage?

    I suggest you go to your Black Apple and select Software Update. This will allow you to download the latest version of software available to your Mac.  I also recommend that you keep your Software UP TO DATE. Many users are not even aware that this is how you up date your software.  Doing this will keep your computer running smooth and your software Up To Date. This is also recommended by Apple.

  • I was given an assingment, but have no idea where to begin. The assingment is to create a text file using notepad with all of my digital inputs and some how make those imputs show up on my digital indicators on my control pannel

    I was given an assingment, but have no idea where to begin. The assingment is to create a text file using notepad with all of my digital inputs and some how make those imputs show up on my digital indicators on my control pannel.
    When it was explained to me it didn't sound to hard of a task, I have no LabVIEW experience and the tutortial sucks.

    StevenD: FYI, I did NOT give you the one star rating. I would never do that!

    Well, this is an assignment, so it is probably homework.
    Why else would anyone give HIM such an assigment, after all he has no LabVIEW experience and the tutorials are too hard for him?
    This would make no sense unless all of it was just covered in class!
    This is not a free homework service with instant gratification.
    OK! Let's do it step by step. I assume you already have a VI with the digital indicators.
    "...but have no idea where to begin".
    open notepad.
    decide on a format, possibly one line per indicator.
    type the document.
    close notepad.
    open LabVIEW.
    Open the existing VI with all the indicators.
    (are you still following?)
    look at the diagram.
    Who made the program?
    Does the code make sense so far?
    Is it a statemachine or just a bunch of crisscrossed wires?
    Where do you want to add the file read?
    How should the file be read (after pressing a read button, at the start of the program ,etc.)
    See how far you get!

    How do I convert a power point document to a pdf where it will show the notes for each slide?

    To get the 'handout view' with a slide and the speaker notes on the same page, you have to save the PDF file directly from PowerPoint (the later versions of Microsoft Office can make PDF files without the help of Acrobat).

    Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so it won't show for re-downloading. If you haven't got a copy of it anywhere (if it's on your computer's iTunes then it should be in the Books part of your library) and it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Is this how dual boot works in Lenovo laptops?

    I have a Z580 and I've succesfully installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS alongside Windows 8. Earlier I lost my paritions during Ubuntu install and so I had to do a clean install of Windows using the MSDN version and by using the product key retrieved using RWEverything tool.
    Here are my questions:
    When I boot through Ubuntu there is a pause for almost 30 seconds with a blank screen before the Ubuntu startup screen comes up. Is that how it is or is there a way I can fix this?
    When I boot Ubuntu boots well, but the Windows boot option doesn't appear in the Grub boot menu. But if I choose Windows boot option in the Boot Menu (by pressing the small button) Windows boots fine. Is this how it works on the Lenovo laptops? It's fine with me and in fact it's more desirable for me so that I can kinda hide Windows which I rarely use. But I'm curious to know if this is how it works and it's not related to the problem described in my first question.

    I do not own the same machine, but I can make the following general observations:
    Re: the 30 second pause, does that occur before or after the GRUB menu?
    A Windows entry can be added to the Boot menu, which is contained in a config text file.
    I don't know what you mean by pressing the small button to boot Windows.
    My Lenovo laptop dual boots Linux and Windows (but not Ubuntu, and not Windows 8).  The total boot time to Linux is around 45-60 seconds on a regular HDD, and 17-30 seconds on SSD, including Grub.  Windows is about 45-90 seconds on HDD, 30 or so on SSD, including GRUB selection.  That time is from when I press the power button until the desktop is up and the computer is either connected or connecting to Wi-Fi.
    Usually, a longer delay with my Lenovo machine is because of having USB drives attached during boot (though I'm not sure why this causes a delay) or because of updates being installed.
    There are log files created during boot time that you could research and read if you wanted to know where each chunk of time is going.  I think they are under /var/log/boot or something like that.
    Hope this helps some, anyway.

  • How to get cisco show and share

    Hi,
        I have a DMM with version 5.2 and saw that on my licesing I have show and share. But how do I install show and share? Can I install it on DMM server?Do I need to install it in another server? Where can I download it? I think the show and share installation is called SS-5.2.0.20.iso, but I do not found it on cisco support download section.  

    Mario,
    Show and Share(SnS) is an Appliance just like your Digital Media Manager (DMM).
    You have to purchase the Appliance from Cisco or a Cisco Partner.  Then you have
    to purchase use licenses for Authors etc...   The Appliance software is not separate
    from the hardware and is not downloadable.
    Please contact your Cisco Sales Rep or Account for further explanation and they
    can assist you with your companies needs.

  • How to transfer library to new laptop

    Hi all
    I am hoping someone can help me!
    I have bought a new laptop and installed iTunes onto it. My iTunes library however is on my husbands laptop and I cannot work out how to transfer it from his laptop to my new one. I've tried the "Export" option under File menu but it doesn't seem to work.
    Can anyone please explain to me in simple steps (and non techie language!!) how I export my library? I do not have an exernal harddrive either, I only have a small capacity memory stick so if I need to put the music on the stick I may need to repeat the process a few times!
    Thank you in advance for any help
    Michala

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Had my old number transferred, facetime/imessage show my transferred number but in settings/phone/mynumber it is still showing as the temporary number

    I've had my old O2 number transferred to my new iphone 4s on 3. my facetime and imessage show my transferred number but in the phone settings its still showing as the number that came with the phone.
    When i message someone it seems to be showing as either one or the other if its a text conversation its converting from one to the other then back again. Also on imessage its reverted to using my email address.
    Does anyone know how to make it so that everything is showing the correct number. i have turned both facetime/imessage off, turned my phone off and on again turned facetime/imessage back on again which sorted the numbers showing on them. But in phone settings thats not done the trick.
    Please Help!!!

    When you go to Settings>Phone, what shows as your phone number? Is the temporary number you describe there or your regular phone number? You should be able to set it there. I don't know if there is a new place for setting anything associated with iMessage. I cannot find any reference in the iOS 5 manual regarding changing settings.
