Messages (that came w Moutain Lion) will not deliver my messages anymore - cannot get it work.  Anyone else having this issue?

Messages (the old iChat) was working great when I first downladed Mountain Lion.  Since a few days ago, I cannot get messages to send any messages on my MacBook Pro and it won't send some messages on my iPhone (some work, some don't).  I have tried quitting the program and restarting it, I have tried restarting the computer.  I've gone into preferences and cannot find anything in there to change or fix...I'm at a loss as to why this is happening.  Anyone w/ any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!! 

My problem is somewhat similar. I just replaced my iMac with a Retina MBP, and mostly everything migrated (except for a couple apps like XCode) and it's running fine, pretty much identical to the iMac. Messages was working fine on iMac (both have Mountain Lion latest update), and I'm getting all my messages fine on the RMBP, but every message I send errors out and resending errors out, haven't been able to get one delivered since I switched. 
Is there any way to debug what is causing the time out error? I'm logged into my accounts properly, have restarted messages several times, turned off the original iMac in case of error, etc.
Edit: But I didn't reboot my RMBP, and of course, guess what? That fixed it. '
My guess is that because I had the iMac still running on the same network as sort of a twin to the new computer, it might have caused some sort of confusion that wasn't worked out until I restarted fresh with the iMac off. You would think that would only cause problems with recieving, not sending, but that's my theory.

  • My messenger not working properly on my iPhone 6 freezes completely and I miss all my texts just not working. anyone else having this issue?

    I have already swapped this phone out once for a new I phone 6. First one I was having same issues with.
    Now I got the new one and it was good for about a month and now its doing it to but worse. It freezes completely.
    Won't let any of my text messages get through to me. All my messages disappear completely and randomly come back when they feel like it.
    This time its frozen where I can't even read any texts or get any texts and when I click on the messenger app it just goes to the NEW MESSAGE and won't let me get out of this screen. Should I once again take this back? or are all the iPhone 6's bad like this?

    It's not the iphones, it's more likely one or more of your programs causing this issue. It's not the iPhone 6's. The possibility of you getting 2 bad iphones from different batches is extremely remote or you have the worst luck on the planet. lol    If one iPhone has it, then you get a new one and the same problem comes up again, it's most likely due to an issue with a program that you keep getting back from restoring an old backup. Restore the iphone again and set up as a new iphone. Then manually import your music and your photos. Once that's done, try to use your iphone to see if everything is ok. If it works good for a few days, then try to add some of the apps. At some point, you'll end up loading the malicious app and the problem may come back. Make sure that the apps are all updated. If you still have problems, call Apple so that they can run a diagnostic report and find out which app is causing this issue. Then you can simply delete it and/or update the app. More solutions are available but that's all I will post for now.

  • After upgrading to mountain lion, i find that my mail app does not have a "VIP" Tab. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what it is about?

    after upgrading to mountain lion, i find that my mail app does not have a "VIP" Tab. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what it is about?

    First, select sender(s) as VIPs. Then the VIP category will appear.
    To select a sender as a VIP, open an email from that sender, then hover over their name and a star icon will appear to the left. Click the star, and that sender will be set as a VIP (and the category will appear in the pane on the left).

  • Send Invitation Inactive/Not Working in Member Center.  Anyone else having this issue?

    When I try to invite a developer to our organization's Apple Dev Portal, the 'Send Invitation' link is inactive.  I also tried the bulk invite where the button appears to be active but does not respond when clicked.  Is anyone else having this issue? I submitted a bug report last week and haven't heard anything.

    Hi 2themax11
    Still no update from PA Networks - it is like they are in total denial that Mountain Lion exists!
    The Cisco app works but only just and is very slow, i think that may be more to do with us than the use of the app. Bear in mind we used to use the Cisco service and so it is not something I had to set up from scratch but it is not something our network team are happy about as this service was buried and was not supposed to be supported any more.
    I am also using a Cisco SSL webvpn for accessing our intranet etc. it is a quicker fix for a few things. Like you I am now using 2 laptops...one is an old Dell...it is horrible!

  • Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix.  The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

    Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix.  The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

    I'm performing a normal "Save", not "Save As". Work flow I'm using is as follows:  Select photo in Lightroom 5.7 >" Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014 > (after working on photo is PS) > Save > close PS. Photo returns to Lightroom 5.7 in a new folder rather than next to the original. Prior to purchasing the monthly plan and upgrading to PS CC 2014, I performed this same work flow using Lightroom 5.6 and Photoshop CS6 without any issues.
    Just for fun... I attempted to move the edited file back into the original folder. I received a prompt that said the file already existed in the original folder, however I can't see it except the new folder that LR created. I tried several different sort orders, etc without any success.
    *** Follow up: Was unable to resolve the issue using Photoshop CC 2014. Uninstalled PS CC 2014 and went back to using Photoshop CS6. Return trips from LR 5.7 to Photoshop is now performing as it should: returning edited photo back to the original folder in LR 5 and placing next to the original image.
    Should anyone have a suggestion on getting Photoshop CC 2014 to do the same, I would love to be educated.
    Thanks for the help, dj_paige.

  • I have a document that I wrote today on my phone, went to open it again and the app kept crashing or it would only open half the file. Is anyone else having this issue? On the preview it shoes the whole file, but when I open it only shows a few paragraphs

    I have a document that I wrote today on my phone, went to open it again and the app kept crashing or it would only open half the file. Is anyone else having this issue? On the preview it shoes the whole file, but when I open it only shows a few paragraphs. When I email the file it only shows a few paragraphs, but when I go to open it both on my ipad and iphone it crashes the app.
    Everything is up to date.

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

    Up the top where the three buttons are (red yellow green) are three images. Click on the third image that looks like a notepad (not the first which is a library book), and that should get rid of 'Notes'. To read using two pages make the window bigger.

    problem with updated find my iPhone (FMi) app: when I attempt to open the FMi app, it tells me that I need to be a registered developer and run iOS7 to do so; is anyone else having this problem?  I got the app as a regular update to my existing FMi app which worked great.

    The problem is being reported in the news media, yes. Apparently someone at Apple jumped the gun and uploaded the update before it was ready. They'll probably issue another update shortly, I would expect, but you can go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. If you have a backup copy of the older version of the app, remove the newer version, restore the old version to iTunes on your computer, and resync.
    Update: Well, that was certainly quick. As of a short time ago, various sites are reporting that the Find My iPhone app is no longer displaying the previous error message. If it still is for you, delete it from your iPhone and re-download from the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • I received an Keynote update notice on my Mac Air. I updated and now can not get into my saved keynote docs. I am being asked to upgrade again and purchase the upgrade. Anyone else having this issue?

    I received an Keynote update notice on my Mac Air. I updated and now can not get into my saved keynote docs. I am being asked to upgrade again and purchase the upgrade. Anyone else having this issue?

    Try this repair, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, use Appcleaner from Mac Update to           do this, its freeware
    2  restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
    3  immediately after the start chime,  press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
             let it fully boot up,  it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive  then First Aid tab and           click  repair disc permissions
    5  when complete, restart the Mac normally
    6  install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    Please report back to let us know if this helped.
