Messages goes unresponsive on startup - anyway to fix it?

For the last week or so, Messages has gone unresponsive on startup. It beachballs if I hover over it. All I can do is force quit the app. But I can't get it to start up properly. Until last week or so I had no problems with it.
Is there a way to fix the problem? Preferably without losing my chat histories...
Thanks,
Doug

After I force quit, this is what the report looks like. Anybody have any ideas? I would love to do a screen sharing with a friend I help, but Messages just beachballs now. All .plists related to ichat and imessage have been deleted. It appears to start up ok, and I see my friends list ok, but then it just beachballs!
The error report looks like something recursive is happening, with all those indents. Here is part of it - it just repeats like that:

  • YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

    YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads, if it's even loading at all.
    I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

    You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

  • Droid Bionic text messages going to wrong people

    I have had my Droid Bionic for several months now. It is not rooted and I don't download tons of apps on my phone. I don't use netflix to watch movies or download music. The apps I have are mainly to help me with work. So I'm not app happy just downloading things non stop. This is why I'm confused and irritated. My Bionic has started sending text messages to the wrong people! I had this issue with my Droid X which is why I switched to the Bionic, hoping that after all these years of making smart phones motorola, google and verizon would put a phone out there that actually works like it's supposed to. How much practice do these phone companies need to get their OS right? I don't mind paying a lot of money for something that will make my life a little easier but I get very irritated paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work the way it's supposed to...and at the most inappropriate times. The Bionic has gone from helping to adding to my daily hassles. Is anyone else having issues with text messages going to the wrong people on their Bionics? Have you found a way to fix it? I'm also getting error messages that just started about a week ago...com.motorola.main.service has stopped and then a option to forceclose. The tech support person at Verizon sounded like he had never seen a smart phone before and gave me the Verizon standard technical reply..."do a factory reset". I should not have to reset anything on a NEW Phone! Why don't you fix these problems Google, Motorola and Verizon and in a timely manner?! I know for a fact if I didn't pay for my phone as promised or pay my bill as promised I would suffer the consequences immediately! You cell phone companies are all about getting your money and leaving us customers out here hanging and irritated. If you think my feelings are misguided then feel free to prove me wrong. FIX THESE ISSUES AND FIX THEM IN A TIMELY MANNER! BETTER YET, PUT OUT A PRODUCT THAT WORKS AS PROMISED IN YOUR ADS! TRAIN YOUR TECHS TO ACTUALLY RESOLVE ISSUES INSTEAD OF RECITING THEIR FAVORITE MOTO "Do a factory reset"! When you do these 3 things I will not feel like someone who has been lied to, robbed, and irritated! I am usually a very positive person but after dealing with issues with 2 expensive phones I'm a little upset. Can anyone help me fix my phone?

    Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

  • Screen Goes Black During Startup (after login)

    Hello,
    I have a 2005 Mac Mini PPC OS 10.4.11. This is the first problem I've had since purchasing the computer. This problem popped up out of nowhere. The screen goes black during startup just after I login into my account. I can hear the hard drive spin like it is finishing the startup process. The monitor power button blinks green.
    I'm using the digital video cable. I tried switching to the VGA cable but the screen then goes black before the login screen.
    The computer will startup in Safe mode.
    I've tried Disk Utility (repair disk and repair permissions), Techtool Pro, Drive Genius, ColorSync Utility, Reset Pram, installed latest OS updates, and even re-installed the System twice (once because I removed all the Extension files and then the computer would not startup at all).
    I've also tried removing cache files, plist files, startup files, preference files, and some or all of extension files.
    The only applications I have recently installed were QuickTime Pro and a .flv movie player; both about a week before this problem started. I tried to uninstall them but could not figure out how.
    What is the problem? How can this be fixed?
    Thanks.
    Richard

    Howdy. I have Had the same problem as you in regards to a ViewSonic Monitor and the Mac Mini. This is my post:
    Monitor failure when switching resolutions
    Using Displays with the Mac mini, Apr 1, 2008, Replies: 2
    Running 10.5.2 on Mac Mini G4 1.42 Ghz with ATI Radeon 9200, 32 MB VRAM and ViewSonic VX922
    When switching resolutions from 1280x1024 to 800x600 or vice versa, the monitor will cut to black and the power light on the monitor switches from solid green to flashing green. Only by combinations of powering down the mini and starting it up again with the monitor on or off will bring the monitor back to life. This problem makes it difficult to play World of Warcraft amongst other games. Any feedback in regards to this problem would be appreciated.
    Thank You!
    At this point, I am unable to switch Monitor resolutions. If I do, the monitor goes black, and I have to power everything down and wait a while before I can restart.
    I've resigned myself to not switching resolutions, but I'm wondering if you've had any luck.
    Thanks for your time!

  • I've updated all my software and iTunes on my Macbook Pro but when I went to open iTunes it tells me it's either corrupted or not installed correctly and to reinstall it. Is there anyway to fix it without reinstalling the whole program?

  • Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

    Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Open Outlook 2013
    2. Open email message with PDF attachment
    3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
    4. Close Adobe Reader
    Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
    Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
    Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
    Has anyone else experience this problem?  If so, have you found a work-around?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
    I had this problem happening in Outlook.
    If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
    The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
    The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
    Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
    Close down Outlook and re-start it.
    Problem solved! Just dont know how  or why.

    It worked for me with Win 7 and OL 2003. Why? Who cares ... It is working.

  • In iphoto, when I click on Print, the preview image it shows me is an enlarged section of my photo. I cropped the photo and checked with no restraints. Once the photo goes to Print, I can't fix it back to the way it is in iphoto.

  • My iphone fell into the toilet so i am trying to use my imessage app on my mac to text my friends and it is saying my password is invalid. Is there anyway to fix that or reset the password for it? Thanks

    Hello jthompsonn25,
    I'm sorry to hear about your iPhone and the issues you are having with Messages on your Mac. If you are trying to send iMessage messages in Messages, your iMessage account should be tied to your Apple ID (same account name and password). If you are having password issues in Messages, you may want to verify that you have the correct password by logging in to your Apple ID directly:
    Apple - My Apple ID
    If you are unable to or are still getting an error message with your password, you may need to reset the password on your Apple ID. If that is the case, you may find the following article helpful:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    Sincerely,
    - Brenden

  • I have iphone 5c.  Having email problem.  Does not delete emails showing in inbox from date 8/27 thru 9/23.   When deleted, these same emails repopulate in inbox.  What is going wrong?  How do I fix the problem?

    Ihave iphone5c.  Does not permanently delete emails showing in inbox.  When they are move to Trash then inbox at first shows empty.  However if you leave Mailbox and return then all the emails that were previously deleted and now repopulated in Inbox.  I have tried various things like marking them "read" before deleting, then moving them to Trash, and they still return.  What is going wrong and how do I fix the problem?

    What your describing sounds lot like Nortons anti virus, but other do it to.
    Multiple copies of the same email over and over are almost always anti virus incoming mail scanning. Turn off scanning and the problem goes away turn it back on and it resumes.
    My guess is that your filter issues, and search problems are also related to this uniquitous and most ignored security tool that messes up far more than it should..
    Deleting the index
    I assume you mean the global-messages-db.sqlite. if you don't close Thunderbird and delete it now. Searches will be incomplete until it rebuilds and the time to do that will have a lot to do with how much mail there is and how busy the computer is.
    Now create an exclusion in your anti virus program for the Thunderbird profile folders. My guess is it is trying to scan the files in your profile every time Thunderbird tries to open them and generally turning things into a tug of war, which Thunderbird looses as it just does not wait around if files are locked. It expects exclusive access to it's files immediately, not in 10 minutes when the anti virus has done it's thing. So things get added to the index but not removed. Mails don't move as the destination or source file is "in use" etc.

    Hey there Fabian, 
    If I understand correctly you are going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars > Add Account but that last option is not usable because it is gray. In testing this for you, I was able to reproduce this by enabling Restrictions and denying Account Changes. You can configure that with this article:
    About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • HT204053 Others are using my Apple ID. How can I stop messages going to other iPhones

    How can I stop messages going to other iphones which use my apple ID?

    You can use another email to send and receive messages and FaceTime.  When you change email, your contacts will get a message so you can keep in touch.
    In settings
    Messages/FaceTime
    Send and receive
    Uncheck Apple ID and check your email
    Let us know if you got it fixed.

  • My Macbook air keeps getting a message saying that the startup disk is full. I don't have picture, music, or movies on it. Im not sure whats wrong with it.

    My Macbook air keeps getting a message saying that the startup disk is full. I don't have picture, music, or movies on it. Im not sure whats wrong with it.

    The first step is to check and see how much space really is there.  From the desktop right click on the drive in the upper right corner (at least it's there by default) and select "Get Info" to see how much space it reports as free.
    It's not just media files that eat up disk space, though they are often a major contributor.  Do you happen to be running one of the virtual machine programs (Parallels or VMWare Fusion)?  When you create a guest drive there you normally have a fairly decent amount of disk space dedicated to it and that can fill the drive.
    As well, a quick fix that may buy you some time is to empty the trash if you've not done so recently.  Click on the trash folder in your dock and then in the window that comes up select the option to empty the trash.
    If you can free up some space, there are programs that will help you find what files and directories are using disk space.  I've used Space Gremlin (in the App store) for that sort of thing, though there others.  If you run that sort of utlity you'll get some idea about what is really eating up the drive space.
