Still not receiving iMessages on my Mac

I am Still not receiving iMessages on my Mac, even after the Moutain Lion 10.8.2 update and iOS6 on my iPhone 4S. Does anyone know how to solve this?
I was under the impression that after the 10.8.2 update and iOS6 and having all of the correct preferences checked new iMessages from someone else would also show up on my Mac and iPad. Can someone please help and advise?
Thanks!

William,
Thanks so much for your reply and attention to this matter! I actually figured out last night that I did not have the right boxes checked within the Preferences of iMessage on my Mac. PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
Now if you could just help me solve my last issue! See below...

IPhone 5s not receiving iMessages after upgrading to iOS 8

After upgrading to iOS 8 my iPhone 5s is not receiving iMessages from the rest of the family. My phone shows up green instead of blue on the other phones. I have tried all kinds of resets, turning off/on iMessages, etc. Nothing has worked so far. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Iphone 5s not receiving imessages or sms after ios 8.1 update

Since updating to iOS 8.1 this morning I have not received any iMessages or SMS, despite my wife having told me she has sent numerous messages to me today! Anyone else have this problem, and any ideas as to how to resolve it? Thanks.

I had this problem too. Upgraded this morning and didn't receive any messages all day. Got home and looked at my iPad and found that I'd missed several messages.
Turned out that iMessage was switched off. Don't know why that would be the case... but I went into Settings -> Messages, saw that it was now off, switched it on, and all is back to normal.

Why am i not receiving iMessages on my phone but when i log onto my mac they are all there?

I am not getting my iMessages on my phone. but when in log onto my mac they come up on my messages here. what can i do o fix this i need to be able to recieve meaages on my phone on the go.

I think you answered your own question. If I read what your wrote correctly, you sent yourself a message to your phone number and you are wondering why it was not recieved on your iPad? If that is what you wrote, the reason is your iPad is not a cell phone and messages sent to a cell number, will not be received on your iPad. To send a message from your iPhone to your iPad using iMessage, you need to send the message to the email address you specified when you set up iMessage on your iPad.

Not receiving iMessage on my Mac

Why am I not reeiving iMessages on my Mac or display any of my chat history?

An alternative.
Is anyone sending iMessages to your on the ID you use on your Mac ?
The Messages app can do the old style iChat IMs as well as iMessages.
The best start for those is to use the same Apple ID on the iPhone, iPad, Touch as well as Messages on your Mac.
Some people say they sync better if the iPhone is Turned Off then rebooted to cut the link to the iMessage Server then re-establish it on the restart.
Others say it seems to do better if the iPhone has all messages cleared before trying to sync.
It is reported that full on iPhone Number syncing will come with iOS 6 as has already been said

Not receiving iMessages after attempting to link accounts by adding additional email address.

I tried to link my daughters iMessages (iPod) to my account (iPhone). On my iphone I went to settings/ messages/ send and receive/ add another email. I was told that I could not add her email address and was directed to 'cancel' or 'remove email address'. I chose to remove it and was told that 'you will no longer be able to receive iMessages from (email address) on any device. Foolishly I continued and now she is not receiving her messages. How can I get them back?

Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and sign out of your ID and then sign in again.

Cannot receive iMessages on iPad

I cannot receive messages sent to my iPhone on my iPad. I have both of them signed into my Apple ID and can easily receive iMessages on the iPhone. With messaging on the iPad I can neither send or receive messages. It should be noted that my iPad is from the US and I'm using it on wifi in Denmark....if this affects anything. Any advice on how to make this work?

Did you turn off messages on your iPhone AND your iPad and then start all over again, turning on messages on the iPhone first? That's usually how the phone number becomes accessible in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at ....

Computer shut down for a week, I am not receiving iMessages I missed from that whole week..

My computer was shut down for a week, during which time my friends sent me a bunch of messages on iMessage. Now that my computer is on I am not receiving any of these missed messages. I think I missed some important messages from people so I really want to know what happened and why I am not receiving them. I checked my email to see if the messages got sent there but there is nothing. Can anyone help?

Instant messaging is not the same as email. If your IM client is not running when the message arrives, it's lost. Ask your friends to send their messages again, or to email them.

Not receiving photos on ipad 3 from iphone 4s

Just wondering if someone has the same problem of not being able to receive photos from Photostream from iphone to the ipad. Mine was working but has notwstopped. Tried resetting and other stuff. but still not working.

Hi,
It does seem at times the iPhone loses it's "Registration" of the iPhone Number to the iMessages Server.
Get the User to Check their iPhone > Settings > Messages.
The app should be ON.
The Apple ID should be present.
The Send and Receive should then list both the iPhone Number and Apple ID as ticked items (the phone number will be greyed out)
I have had the iPhone number appear greyed out like it should be but become Unticked (Inactive).
The the greyed out state means you cannot turn it On or Off manually this does seem strange.
The process if it is "un-registered" is to remove the Apple ID.
Place the iPhone in Airplane Mode to break with the servers.
After a few minutes take it out of Airplane Mode and go back to the Messages Settings.
The iPhone Number should be verifying.
Once that is complete re-add the Apple ID and then choose the "Start Conversations From" option.
If the Number is also missing from the Mac version Restart the Mac version and Accept the pop ups.
