I can't find iMessage on my mac?

I have tried searching through my computer and can't seem to find the iMessage app? Help? :s
Is there a way I can download it?

Press Command Spacebar and type Messages into the spotlight search.  It should be the first hit.  Start it there and right click it's icon on the dock and select Options > Keep in Dock.
It's called messages, not imessage.

  • I can't find the "on my mac"folder in mail.

    I can't find the "on my mac" folder in email.  I created all my folders there and now can only find the emails if I search for them, but still don't see the folders.  There were on the left side under my email accounts before I had to convert to ICloud.  Can anyone help me find them?

    Thank you of the quick reply and I kind of now have more info. 
    Since posting my question I "exported" the mailbox and voila, 2.6GB of info.  So I think I have some solution. 
    "Are you desiring to Archive mail older than six months and remove that from Mail?" Not from Mail, but the iCloud, but when I did remove from icloud, I want to make another back up, even though I have time machine.  I want to basically burn a DVD or put old email on other storage media.
    "With a better understanding of your goal -- I can help you to a solution." Okay great, appreciate it! I hope I made/make sense.
    "If you haven't done a Rebuild lately, I'd highly recommend you start there:"  Ummm  I've never rebuild.... so I also wanted to back up the data before I rebuild I think, right?  I have no other copy, these emails were removed from the iCloud, and put in a mail folder on my mac (which I can't find the mailbox (mbox) on the mac, user name--->documents---> mail folder---> there is no corresponding mbox that I just created, this folder/get info says circa 2012), so the mail on my mac is not copied from iCloud. Technically I do have the time machine backup.... but you never know if that gets corrupted.
    So my thought prior to rebuild is to export, as a back up, then rebuild?  As to mailbox naming, since I have no idea where the corresponding folders are on my mac, exporting first, might be best option.  If I rebuild, will that break or possibly lose data?
    Thoughts?

  • I can't find iMovie on my mac any where though it says on the app store it is installed I can not find it to open and use, someone help ?!

    I can't find iMovie on my mac any where though it says on the app store it is installed I can not find it to open and use, someone help ?!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open a Finder window, select Applications in the sidebar and look for iMovie. Make sure there are no external disks connected, and if so, disconnect them, open the App Store and install iMovie.
    You can also use Spotlight to look for iMovie, so press Command and Space keys and type iMovie

  • Hi, how do I download acrobat professional 7?  I can't find a link for Mac. I reinstalled CS2 (as my old G4 Powerbook needed reinstalling), but it didn't install instal Acrobat or Distiller.  Adobe don't seem to have any contact mechanism.

    Hi, how do I download the replace CS2 acrobat professional 7?  I can't find a link for Mac. I reinstalled CS2 from adobe (as my old G4 Powerbook needed reinstalling), but it didn't install instal Acrobat or Distiller.  Adobe don't seem to have any contact mechanism.
    I put my old acrobat back onto my machine (from a backup made before reformatting) but it wants the box serial number.  when I did that however, the replacement CS2 photoshop, etc, wouldn't work, so I had to install it again, but then, you guessed it - acrobat won't work again.

    Hello Alan,
    Acrobat 7 is older version. Refer below link for more information and how to download.
    Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
    Adobe has made earlier versions available for customer's convenience.
    Hope all will go well !!

  • I'm trying to send photos with iPhoto.  I have to sign into "messages" but can't find that on my Mac.  I never had a problem until now.

    How do I sign into messages?  I can't find it on my mac.  I just want to send photos like I used to and it's been changed.  Argh!

    Care to share which OS you are using as well as which version of iPhoto?
    It would help us to know which computer model you have, which OS & version you're using, how much RAM, etc. You can have this info displayed on the bottom of every post by completing your system profile and filling in the information asked for.
    This will help in providing you with the proper and/or correct solutions.

  • My mac can't find time capsule, my mac can't find time capsule

    my mac can't find time capsule, my mac can't find time capsule

    I listed the commands.. that is how you manually mount the disk.. follow exactly the commands I gave you.
    In finder use top menu, go, connect to server.
    Type in the following.
    AFP://TCname or AFP://TCIpaddress (obviously you replace with the actual name or the actual IP address).
    If that fails..
    try
    SMB://TCname
    Here is the screenshot.
    tardis4 being the name of my TC.
    It should then ask you for your credentials.
    And it should remember them in the keychain and be able to then get TM to connect.

  • I can't activate imessage on my Mac mini.

    I can't activate imessage on my Mac mini. http://d.pr/i/U7xu OSX 10.8.2

    First, check the status of iMessage on this page:
    Apple - Support - System Status
    If iMessage is down, wait tor it to come back up.
    Otherwise, back up all data.
    Take the steps suggested in this support article:
    FaceTime, Game Center, Messages: "There was an error processing registration" when signing in
    Sign out of iMessage:
    Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    Then sign back in with your verified credentials. Note that the password of some Apple ID's will expire periodically.
    If you get the same error, try resetting the NVRAM.

  • How cane i find a stolling apple mac book pro

    how cane i find a stolling apple mac book pro 15"
    i just have the serial nubber

    Report your stolen computer to local law enforcement. You will need the serial number to make a complete report. Contact your insurance to see if they will pay a claim based on the theft. Also if it was purchased with a credit card, contact them and see if they will cover replacement - some cards do within a certain period.
    Best of luck.

  • Can I find serial number or mac address of ipad if I know only Apple ID on it?

    Can I find serial number or mac address of ipad if I know only Apple ID on it? Ipad and macbook air were stolen and I do not remember their serial numbers.

    No, the MAC address, the unique set of letters and numbers that identify the network interface in the device, will not help you, or anyone else, locate a stolen iPad. If you didn't set up Find My iPad on the device before it was stolen, then there will be no way to track it. The police typically will only want the serial number of the stolen items so they can identify them should they manage to find the thief.
    If none of the methods suggested by the others - receipts, iTunes, registration with Apple, packaging - can provide you the serial number, then there's no way you can obtain that information
    Regards.

  • Okay so I just updated my mac to the latest software.. Mountain Lion. I still can't find iMessage on it though. iChat is still there.

    I restarted my laptop a few times and it still didn't work. What should I do to find iMessage? I thought it was supposed to replace iChat after I update my software to Mountain Lion.. :S

    You are running Lion not Mountain Lion thus iChat. If you want Messages then you will have to upgrade (purchase)  Mountain Lion from the App Store.
