IMessage for Mac not receiving messages after ios8 upgrade

I recently updated my iPhone 5 to iOS8, however, after doing this my Macbook Pro now does not receive iMessages and is unable to send them. Can anyone give me some help to get the iMessages on the mac working again? Thanks.

Hey DenholOliver,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are not receiving iMessages on your MacBook Pro since updating your iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Let’s check to see that your phone number and Apple ID are setup correctly on both of the devices:

    Try a Restart.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • MinBox for Mac, Not Receiving Via iCloud?

    I've recently installed the MinBox service on my mid-2012 MacBook Pro running Yosemite (although that may be irrelevant given my exact issue). I send files via the MinBox application and I receive a confirmation email that I've received the file, but for some reason, iCloud accounts do not receive my MinBox emails, yet Gmail, Yahoo!, and other providers do. We've tried checking the Junk folder and adding the incoming email address to the address book, but nothing seems to work. Help!

    I don't know, just a guess.

  • No Content available for this navigation node message after Portal Upgrade

    Hi,
    After Portal upgrade to 7.01 EHP1 SP7, when we are clicking on any role at the TLN, the Portal Content area is showing the message " No Content available for this navigation node". However before upgrade when we are clicking on any TLN role the content area used to show the first iview in the folder in the detailed navigation.
    Please help as we are in a very critical state.
    Best

    Hi Amiya,
    I already gone through this thread but iwe will get an empty page if we will change the value of default content to null in the Content Area iview. My requirement is to expand the folder in the detail navigation area and display the first iview in that folder in the content area whenever we click on any role in the TLN.

  • IMessages for Mac question: stop message pop-up when not running?

    How do I keep messages from popping up when the program is not running? Not awesome when projecting from my laptop to large groups and the loving wife sends the shopping list.

    go into your notifications panel in system prefs and turn off the notifications for the messages application that should resolve the issue!

  • IChat does not receive messages after a few hours

    I always leave my computer on at night since I often get chats from overseas that I don't want to miss. Ever since I have started using iChat 5, these messages never arrive at my computer anymore. I am also using it in conjunction with AIM on the iPhone. Could that be causing the problems? Ususally the chats arrive on both iPhone and Mac.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    This can be a case of sorting out whether the computer Sleeps,
    Whether it is receiving Off Line IMs,
    and How your Forwarding was set up.
    Use this page to Login to AIM
    https://settings.aim.com/
    Once you do that it should return to this page but will have your Name on it.
    At that point you can check the Off Line IM status.
    If you computer sleeps then ichat may well start faster than the computer reconnects to your LAN - in which case iChat does not login again.
    This may mean it is "Missing" IMs when technically iChat is Off line.
    I have never set up forwarding but you might have to check device order priorities. If the Phone is Off does it default to the computer ?
    Is it supposed to be gong to Both ?
    On that Settings page they call it Mobile (rather than Forwarding).
    Hope this give you some ideas about where to look.

  • Not receiving emails after ICS upgrade

    I recently upgraded to ICS and since then, I haven't been receiving e-mails to my phone like I should.  Nothing has changed about my email account that should prevent the emails from being received on my phone.  Anyone else have this problem?

    You Might Try Clearing the Cache Partition. Or go into you individual Mail's and Clear the Cache and Data as they could be stuck a little after the Update:
    These are the Instructions on Clearing the Cache Partition:  For Razr & Razr Maxx
    Top Alternate method
    Power the device off.
    Press the Power button then select Power off.
    If the device doesn't respond to input, press and hold the Volume Up / Down then press and holdPower button. When the device screen goes blank release the Power button while continuing to holdVolume Up / Down, proceed with step 3.
    Press and hold the Volume Up / Down then press the Power button.
    When presented with the Boot Mode Selection Menu release all buttons.
    Press Volume Down to select Recovery then press Volume Up.
    From the Droid triage screen, simultaneously press Volume Up / Down.
    Select Clear the Cache Partition then press the Power button.
    Select reboot system now then press the Power button.

  • IMessage Mac not receiving messsages sent to iPhone number

    Earlier today I recieved 2 iMessages from another iPhone 4 user, I only realised this now, when I checked my iPhone. He sent them to my mobile number not my email address.
    They never showed up on my Mac, (messages beta), are only iMessages sent to email addresses received on mac? How can I solve this?

    Hi,
    Not sure I follow you here, it is working well for me. I am trying out iMessage on my Mac and receive messages from friends who are sending to my phone number, and I receive the same messages both on the Mac and iPhone.
    Also when I send a message from the Mac to a contact it will appear as sent on my iPhone under there name.
    Only difference is that smilies appear on the phone as a secondary message and as caricatures not faces.
    I did nothing special setting it up, just followed the onscreen prompts.

  • Mac Mail POP Account Not Receiving Messages

    Using Mac Mail, I am suddenly not receiving messages in a POP account. The gmail account I use is working normally. Under connection doctor both accounts are green. Help, please?

    Same problem here since upgrading to Mail 7.1 (1827). All the settings are seemingly correct. The emails are marked as 'Read' on the server but are not downloaded.
    The emails are also deleted a week later as set in preferences.
    Thinking the emails may have gone elsewhere I used Spotlight to look for them. No success there.
    Real puzzle and yet another glitch on the latest Apple Mail.
    Come on Apple, get your act together.

  • HT3529 I'm sending an iMessage from my iPhone to another iPhone but the recipient phone does not receive message because not on wifi. Why does recipient iPhone not automatically receive in text messaging?

    I'm sending an iMessage from my iPhone to another iPhone but the recipient phone does not receive message because not on wifi. Why does recipient iPhone not automatically receive in text messaging?

    Wi-Fi is not required for iMessage. Internet access is required for iMessage which includes when the iPhone is connected to the cellular network.
    If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will fail to send and you will be prompted to send as an SMS if text only.

    Same problem here with and I've done everything shy of a total reset which I also find unacceptable. This problem exists on all iMessage platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac) so I don't see how restoring my iPhone would help the problem.

  • Mail stops receiving messages after a period of time

    Every since installing Mavericks my Mail app stops receiving messages after a period of time. I know because I get the email on my phone, but I try to grab them in Mail and nothing. If I restart Mail then they come through.
    I'm using Gmail as my email provider. Is anyone else suffering with this? Is there a work around?

    Workaround or not, this is an annoyance, and that's a nice way of putting it. Coming from Mountain Lion, when Mail was working flawlessly, having to deal with this issue is just plain ridiculous. What happened to the Mail application? I don't understand how Apple could screw this up to badly.
    Every time I restart or reset the connection to the servers, the Mail app is downloading thousands of messages (I can see the display on the bottom-left). I have no idea what it's doing or why, for that matter. If Apple doesn't fix this soon, I will seriously be forced to look for an alternative, which saddens me greatly. I really like Mail, but if it cannot reliably get my mail simply because I've left it open too long, or hidden it behind another window, I will stop using it.
    What's worse is that I've had similar issues with other applications like iPhoto and iTunes. Whatever is happening to Mail is probably not just application-specific. It's probably OS-specific. I hope Apple is working on it and that we will see a major update to Mavericks soon. All I know is that, right now, I'm seriously regretting upgrading to Mavericks.

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
