Instant messages NOT VISIBLE on one computer

When someone instant messages me (I can see the little pencil writing), the message is not visible on my PC.  Oddly, the message IS visible on my Mac.  I must have made some strange alteration in my settings so that messages aren't visible.  How did I do it and what do I do?  Many thanks in advance.   Ken

I imagine you have more than likely changed your text colour(color) to white. 
I have not been able to reproduce your issue in tools>options.
This is very similar to another thread thoug:

I recommend following those instructions.

  • Purchased songs and movies not visible on 2nd computer in Store

    Hi.
    Purchased songs and movies not visible on 2nd computer in Store. To confirm I went to re-purchase and received message telling me it was already purchased. Heeeelllppp! <smile>

    The purchased content will only be on the computer you actually downloaded it to unless you somehow move it to the other computer. You could burn content to a CD or DVD, use an external hard drive, a thumb drive, a network connection or, if you have one, an iPod.

  • Flash Player 9 not working on one computer

    I have two computers. Flash Player 9 is not working on one
    computer but OK on the other. It fails using both IE 7 and Firefox
    2. It fails connecting to:
    http://www.adidas.com/us/heritage/home.asp
    and
    http://imdb.com/title/tt0264262/trailers-screenplay-E15244-10-2
    but seems to work OK to this site:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/showcase/index.cfmevent=casestudydetail&casestudyid=207779&lo c=en_us
    . It's got to be some setting on the computer but I can't figure it
    out for the life of me. Help - Please

    Here is what I suspect is the problem:
    The certificate for the Shockwave plug that is needed for the
    Flash player to play the content is invalid when the browser checks
    for it. Maybe this is because it was originally issued by
    macromedia.com and it is now adobe.com. I don't know and no one
    from Adobe has responded to my e-mail about the problem as of yet.
    Very frustrating as visitors to our web site using IE who
    haven't recently updated their players will part of the movie but
    it will not play properly or display any of the text. This happened
    sometime within the last several days as far as I can tell.

    my instant messages to only 1 person in my contact list don't go through, it gives me that pending circle icon, i was IMing the guy for about 3 hours and then all of a sudden none of my messages got through. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and that didn't work.

  • Time Capsule visible to one computer but not another

    I want to use Time Capsule for Time Machine backups of my MacBook Pro, running 10.5.2, and manual backups from my PowerBook, running 10.4.11. Everything is hunky dory for the MBP, but the PB cannot see the Time Capsule - meaning, the Time Capsule is not visible from the finder. I've tried looking for it using Go to Network, Disk Utility, and every other way I could think of. Both computers are on the same wireless network and can see each other. File Sharing is enabled on the Time Capsule. What am I missing?

    I used the Airport Utility to enable file sharing for each of my 3 Macs before connecting them. I don't know if this is necessary but I didn't have any problem
    Go to Airport Utility - Disks - File Sharing (click file sharing and enter credentials for each computer l, select read and write access)

  • How can I see incoming messages in more than one computer?

    I live in two locations, when I open incoming messages on one computer , these messages do not appear on the other computer anymore. There must be an option to see the same messages on the other computer too?

    one option is to use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol IMAP] . Basically your e-mail will remain on the server of your e-mail provider and you have access to them with TB via IMAP.
    Other than that, a second option comes to my mind but it's definately much more complicated, less comfortable and I haven't tried it myself .Try this only if IMAP is NOT an option for you.
    You may syncronise the TB E-mail database with some cloud storage provider (like dropbox) on a regular bases.
    A good file sync tool is FreeFileSync (Open Source). The problem with this syncing method is that it can't look into e-mails and which side changed/deleted/etc. what. There are various disadvantages here which I can't get into more detail here. Better use IMAP.

  • Sun ONE Instant Messaging relation to Sun ONE Portal Server

    Sun ONE Instant Messaging is tightly integrated with the Sun ONE Portal Server. Sun ONE Instant Messaging provides a portlet or channel that displays a list of a given user's online buddies and also provides the capability to archive chat and other forms of IM Communications within the portal server search database. Hence, chat, alerts, news channels and more can be archived and searched using the Search capabilities of the portal server. Indeed, Sun ONE Instant Messaging is a value-added offereng to the core Sun ONE Portal Server.
    It should also be mentioned that Sun ONE Instant Messaging integrates with the Sun ONE Portal Server in other ways. Since the portal server provides a web container, the IM deployment can naturally use the web server provided by the portal server. The portal server also uses a directory server which can also be used by Sun ONE Instant Messaging for User and LDAP group search. Finally, Sun ONE Instant Messaging may also use the portal server's Identity Service to provide single sign-on with the portal server.

    Yes, one can install Sun ONE Instant Messaging on a system that does not contain the Sun ONE Portal Server.

  • Upload multiple documents option is not visible for one user in SharePoint 2007.

    Hi,

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that after client upgraded to Office 2013 the option for Upload multiple document was grayed out.
    I try to reproduce the issue in my environment, however everything works well.
    My configuration of system is:
    Windows 8.1;
    IE11;
    Office 2013 32bit.
    Please repair the Office 2013 to check whether it works.
    In addition, there are many thing you need to check. Please refer to:

  • Site not editable by one computer, ok on others, no errors. ?

    I've got a site up and running. Can be edited from 3 different computers, but one computer cannot. No errors. Can log in, hit "Edit" but nothing happens. No errors. No toolbar appears. (windows machine).  Any info as to browser conflicts or firewalls or whatever appreciated. (trying to get list of that particular computer's setup right now). thanks. JO

    I think it is most likely a browser specific issue (if not a local connection problem)... the code works OK on my end. They need to make sure they have "JavaScript ENABLED". If their browser blocks it (as does most IE browsers by default), it will not load. IE usually pops the warning in the toolbar.
    Do you have ANY custom lines added to your .htaccess file? Any page forwarding on the hosting server?
    I did have some basic problems stemming from invalid and inconsistant markup. I know it doesn't pertain to your question directly, but sometimes it can cause odd behaviors can crop up (other than inconsistant browser behavior, may cause some scripting to break)
    I did some minor changes that I see may cause other problems down the road (since it wouldn't validate as 4.01 Transistional anyway):
    links to js & css now have direct paths to http://
    character set from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8
    4.01 Transitional to XHTML 1.0 Transitional
    externalized ALL CSS (created "main.css" and created a link to that stylesheet). You had one sheet externalized already.
    removed nested comments in CSS (nested comments has been known to throw some errors)
    Validated ALL code as Valid XHTML & CSS 2.1
    You're welcome to copy & use these, see if that makes a difference to the client's end. Make sure they do a CTRL - F5  to refresh their local cache.
    Things you need to do:
    Download and unzip the attached files.
    Upload main.css to the same location as business.css
    Enter your "alt tags" for all your images. I currently have them set to alt="enter image name" for validation purposes.
    Rename, save, upload the html file.
    Let me know if any of this helps.. and I'll be waiting for your reply on this and the info about the clients set up.. particularly the browser version.

  • 6350 instant messages not obeying profile setting

    When i use yahoo instant messenger on my nokia 6350 it will not follow the set profile for silent alerts.  If my phone is set to vibrate or silent, the new instant message tone still plays. I've tried changing the instant message settings to sound and vibrate to vibrate only or no sound. Nothing seems to work.  Does anyone have any ideas for a solution?
    Thanks

    I'm getting this too. Switching to a different folder and back gets rid of the blue dot. This only happens with my exchange account. All other accounts work normally.

  • Messaging not working with one person

    I got my LG G3 in December and it has been working great until about a week ago. The problem started relatively small where occasionally a message would tell me it was sent but my girlfriend never received the message. The problem has gotten worst over time and especially yesterday it seemed any message of substantial length would not go through although it would tell me it had, yet any shorter message (>100 characters) would go through almost every time without problems. Starting this morning it is even worse with more messages not sending than do and now it is any length. None of my messages seem to be getting through to only this one person and I can text anyone else just fine. My default messaging app is Messaging+. I thought last night that switching to the normal messaging app might fix the problem But every time I tried to use that app (still with that one person) it would shut down. Messaging+ app will shut down sometimes, but the normal messaging app did not work at all. Could the problem be the large amount of messages between me and this one person, far greater than me and anyone else, or is there possibly another thing I don't know? I downloaded the app Advanced Task Killer and it said there were no problems with the app and I don't have any other options of what I can do. Please help? I would like to not erase all of the messages if possible.

    A large number of messages, or messages large in size, basically total size of all messages can hang things up.  Back up your messages with a GPStore app.  Erase them.  Lower your message character size.  IF it still continues, its the recipients phone.  Both of you should power down, remove SIM, reinsert, power up.

  • Unread messages not visible.

    New user of Macs - about a fortnight, and having issues, not so much with using the MacBook, but trying to work out why and where to find things. Latest issue which started this morning is on downloading messages from my POP3 account, I get 3 unread messages, but not visible anywhere. I read through the other discussions and checked my mail folder in library and found the messages, which were legit, not spam. Moved them to trash and checked the count on the inbox and they had gone. Later in the day i logged in again and have a similar message of x messages, 3 unread - mail folder in the library has different messages this time. Also with the unread messages comes (but not always) and blank header - so there is a dot in the first column to indicate a new message but the remainder of the line is blank, and the preview pane tells me to go to the server to read the message - however there is nothing in webmail server, inbox is empty since it has all been downloaded to MacBook.
    Any thoughts or hints?

    The problem is probably that the mailbox has lost the .mbox suffix in the filesystem, but you appear to have introduced new issues by tinkering with the contents of ~/Library/Mail/ without taking the index into consideration...
    Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder in the Finder.
    In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • New mail messages not visible--"detected corrupt database" related?

    I am using Mail.app and an iPod Touch with an Exchange server (Intermedia). All of a sudden in the last few days, recent mail on the server is not visible using Mail.app or the iPod Touch. I have deleted the mail accounts on both devices twice and done an entirely fresh download of all mail on both, and the problem persists.
    Mail in the Inbox is visible. However, if I move an Inbox message to, say, Archive or Travel, then it becomes invisible--even though it is intact on the server and in its proper location there.
    I have also repaired permissions and run sudo daily/weekly/monthly maintenance processes, to no avail.
    In the console, I see the following error message. Could this be related and is there a way to fix it?

    Update: all messages are viewable in Entourage Exchange Web Services 2008, but not in Apple Mail, or in Mail on my iPod Touch, or after a new download of all mail on another Mac in Mail.app. Why is Entourage able to see all the messages while all the Apple Mail clients are missing them?
