Z3 / Z3 Compact Chat service disappeared in Messaging App

Hi there. Since the latest lolly update, the "chat service" has disappeared as an option from the stock messaging app. The one where your texts were coloured yellow if they were being sent over the internet rather than an SMS. This is very frustrating, as I was just extolling the virtues of this feature to my wife who has the Z3C, I have the Z3. She raves about What'sApp you see. Now "Chat" is gone! It's not even in the settings menu as "enable chat service" anymore... Have deleted data from app etc to no avail. Any ideas folks? Many thanks. It has gone from both our 'phones BTW.

OK, the version of the Messaging app we both have is 28.1.A.1.4. Wife's Z3C still shows SMS after each text, and settings screen shown the Chat Service options. Mine doesn't! Here, have a look...
 My wife's Z3C
 My Z3
Both running latest Lollipop and same build of Messenger?

  • How can I import Chat history into the Messages.app?

    Okay so this is what I've done so far: I've freshly reinstalled Mac OS X 10.8.1 on my Mac and I've already copied the Messages Folder located in User/Library/Application Support, to the new one.
    The idea is to access all this history data in the Messages.app, but so far I haven't been lucky.
    When I'm chatting with people, the recent activity will be shown in the left column of the app but nothing from the past shows up, yet.
    Is there some way to import all the chats into Messages, so that I can see them all in a nice way instead of quick-looking them in the Finder?

    Hi,
    The "sync" between and iPhone (or other iOS device) and a Mac only works from the time both devices have the same details.
    Effectively this is the time that the iPhone has the Apple ID added to it's settings and the pop ups that appear on the Mac about the iPhone's details are accepted.
    The Sync  is then "Display on all devices" only.
    There is no catch up on existing threads on either device on the other.
    If you delete an iMessages or a conversation on one device the other is unaffected.

  • Messages app and transcripts archive

    Why can I not find a way to view my past chat transcripts using the Messages app??  This should be a very very basic command yet I can't seem to find it anywhere.  I  often need to refer back to old discussions.  Am I blind and cannot see this option right under my nose or what??
    I can manually open finder, set finder to display my "Library" folder, then browse to:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Messages/Archive/{date}/{trans cript}.ichat
    I would think I should just be able to right click a users icon and get the option to "view archived messages" or something to that effect.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Suggestions  to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ichat.html
    I still use this page as Messages is iChat under the hood and the Numbering system continued where iChat left off.
    However this page was never that good at keeping up with iChat versions (It still does not list iChat 6 and the OS Versions are updated from another list of pages that list the OS versions)
    Place your specs in the free text area.

  • Chat service not working in Yosemite

    Hi,
    I just upgraded my server to Yosemite. Most of the services run now but I noticed that some - including the Chat services - is now not anymore available through the domain but only through local. Clients therefore receive an error message. In Mavericks the server was available through "server name" at domain name and not "server name".local
    Any idea how I can change that again?
    Thanks.

    Is your network accessible outside ? Are you getting any time out error/exception on the client side (Applet loader's java console)?
    thanks,

  • Exchange 2013 - The Microsoft Exchange Transport service is rejecting message submissions because the service continues to consume more memory than the configured threshold

    Noticed at about noon that no emails had been received all day. Began to investigate and found that the MS Exchange Transport service had been set to deny email submission because it was using too much memory on the server (91%). 
    The error message makes me think that we may have been getting used by malware or something similar.“The Microsoft Exchange Transport service is rejecting message submissions because the service continues to consume more memory than the
    configured threshold.” 
    There are also several warning messages that list particular IP addresses and say that a connection from that IP was denied because there were already the maximum number of connections (20). 
    From what I can tell, all of the IP addresses are from Taiwan. 
    The time period for which some emails may be missing is from close of business yesterday ( 4/3/2014) through about 12:45 today (4/4/2014). 
    From the time I spent reading and trying to figure out the error, I think we may need to readjust our throttling policies to prevent this from happening. 
    The exchange server is currently running at 90%+ CPU and 50%+ memory usage the majority of the time, and I’m not sure how to fix it.
    Also, I cannot get into EMS I get a access denied message from the destination computer. (Exchange server) I want to get into there to change the throttling policy back to default, since we disabled it.
    The Error reads:
    The WinRM client cannot process the request. The WinRM client tried to use Kerberos authentication mechanism, but the destination computer <Exchange> returned an 'access denied' error. Change the configuration to allow Kerberos authentication
    mechanism to be used or specify one of the authentication mechanism supported by the server. (How do I do this?) To use Kerberos, specify the local computer name as the remote destination. (I'm trying to use EMS while logged into the local Exchange server)
    Also verify that the client computer and the destination computer are joined to a domain. (Exchange is on our domain, and the computer trying to connect is the same computer) To use basic, specify the local computer name as the remote destination, specify
    Basic authentication and provide user mane and password. Possible authentication mechanisms reported by server.
    At line:1 char:1
    + New-PSSession -ConnectionURI "$connectionUri" -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Excha ...
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : OpenError: (System.Manageme....RemoteRunspace:RemoteRunspace) [New-PSSession], PSRemotingTransportException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : AccessDenied,PSSessionOpenFailed
    I assumed control of this exchange system already in place and I do not have much experience with exchange 2013 or server 2012. I do know 2008, but that doesn't help very much in this situation.
    Recent changes to the system:
    About three days ago we switch our sessions policy to allow many more connections, and I believe this caused the issue. This is what I changed it to:
    Made the registry DWORD (32-bit) "Maximum Allowed Sessions Per User" and modified the value to 1000. Location of registry change @ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem
    I just changed it to 10 from the 1000. I'm hoping this solves this. So far no.
    Also, I am not the best in the shell or command line interfaces. Any help would be wonderful!

    Hi,
    Yes, could be hardware performance issue. Try recycle the Transport process and see if the issue persists.
    Thanks,

  • Service Battery error message for a battery that looks ok

    Hello,
    I have a 13 inch Macbook Pro with model number 5,5 and after upgrading my hard drive to a WD scorpio black 750GB and also adding 8 GB of Kingston memory I get a Service Battery error message. My OS is 10.6.8. The strange is that my battery is in a fairly good condition. I did check with coconut battery and it looks ok. I also add a print screen.
    Does anyone knows how can I remove this error message ? 
    Do I have to replace my battery ?

    Service battery means replace battery as soon as possible.
    Reset SMC and see whether it changes the notification.

  • Does video chat on the new Messager on Mac allow screen share or multiple people?

    does video chat on the new Messager on Mac allow screen share or multiple people?
    i noticed they said that facetime will basically be taking over video calls on the mac and that Messager will take over ichat, but i'm worried they're going to drop all the nice features they had on ichat, like being able to share screens while video chatting with someone. or being able to chat with 2 people at once on a video call.
    has anyone downloaded the beta of this yet and tried it out? i'm very curious

    Hi,
    You can start a Video chat with one Buddy and then chose Screen Share and providing you and the Buddy are using UPnP to open ports it will instantly convert to a Screen Share.
    A Screen Share is only 1-1 and is technically an Audio Chat +
    The Plus bit is an VNC connection alongside the Audio Chat.
    This VNC connection uses a random port - hence the need to use UPnP to open the ports in the router (Or Port Mapping Protocol) in  Apple Base Station.
    There used to be Add-ons that allowed the Desktop as Video Feed which would have been a sort of Screen Share but none of these have been updated for Lion.
    An Example is iUSBCam  (ShowMacster was another - My link no longer works)
    CamCamX maybe a possibility if it works in Lion  (It does say it neess iUSBCam for iChat)

  • Messages app no longer works; plists or chat.db are missing

    The reason this happened is that well... I sent a really really really long message and it crashed my messages app. So I figured I would try to delete the chat.db file in /Library/Messages but... there was no file there. Then I checked for the plist files in /Library/Preferences/Apple and the plists for messages were all missing. This is the only way I am aware of to solve the problem but these files are clearly gone! I figured maybe they were hidden for some reason so I used a terminal command to show all hidden files, which seemed to work but the files in question were still missing. Am I missing something? Is there another way to fix messages without these files? Should I find replacements for them?
    NOTE:
    I have also just tried looking in ~/Library/Containers/Data/Library/Messages/Archive but I don't even have a Containers folder in Library...

    I think you are probably looking in your system library rather than the user library.
    Please don't take this the wrong way, but if you aren't sure of the difference, I'm not sure you should be playing around in there without specific instruction.

  • HomeFusion- No support Service disappeared

    I am hoping this may gain some attention, or anyone else can share if this has happened to them
    On July 5th, after 2 SOLID months of very good speeds and HomeFusion service with 3+ bars on the router, the service disappeared.
    YES: The 4G Signal is GONE, only Verizon 3G. I am in the "4G Extended Area" (HomeFusion does not roll back to 3G)
    Also notable, I have a Verizon 4G LTE Ipad and it too used to work on 4G and now only 3G
    Now, I have been calling Verizon daily since July 5th, and get no answer, is this service GONE? Is it Broken, When will they fix it , will they fix it.
    It has gone from "We will have our network people looking at the tower to, well, it's 4G extended service area and it could just go away, sorry"
    Am I crazy, or is this a very poor way to service customers and run a business? If I had a service that they installed and approved on their network, shouldn't they maintain the service, or give notice that the service is going away?  They are still billing me in advance for next month, 7 days of which I have been ale to use 0 GB of bandwidth.
    I call tech support, ask to esculate, they tell me it is esculated, there is no one else to talk to. There is no answer or hope of knowing if the service is coming back or if/when they will do anything and decide to do anything except take my money. Oh, I expect a hassle when I tell them I am not paying for something I don't have.
    So question: What should I do next, any suggestions on escalation? Seems Verizon could care less about it's 4G LTE network and customers that they put up on a service, they just don't seem to care.
    Thanks!

    Well that works if you want to give Verizon the benefit, but they are the giant corporation and they are the ones who have the monopoly on the services in my area, so based on the fact they must thing I have to use them or nothing, I guess providing basic customer care is not an option.
    You are saying it is on me to make a coverage map of my area and determine for myself that the service us gone?
    No.
    It would be accecptable for Verizon to get back to me in a timely manner and tell me something like:
    1. The service has been lost due to changes in the towers
    2. We made a change to our towers and we are working on it
    3. There is no more service so we will refund your money and we are sorry we installed it in the first plae.
    Not, we don't know, we will not get back to you and we will not tell you anything about why if failed or when it will be fixed, yet still take my money. 
    I think they have some basic level of responsibility,if the agree to install the service at my location to mainatin it or tell me why it is not working.
    If it was not going to work for me, they should have told me that when they installed it,not yes you have 4G coverage and we will install this.  They didn't say, oh,it might disappear for no reason and we will not tell you why, so be prepared for that, and take your iPad and go search for where th new 4G signal is.
    Shame on them.
    You apparently have knowledge that you're in a 4G "extended" area and not a normal 4G area. The website makes it very clear what "extended" means. It doesn't matter what some installer told you. Yes the installer SHOULD be more knowledgeable, however if you knew already you were in an "extended" area well then you already knew your reception would be iffy, yet you chose to still get service. And it's not the installers job to convince you to NOT get service. Since you are in an "extended" area it shouldn't be too long before you get regular 4G.

  • Odd behavior during full screen video chat with Mountain Lion Messages?

    I've recently upgraded to Mountain Lion on two MacBook Pros (from Lion) and have started to use the new Messages app. I've been using iChat for years and found it reliable for the most part.
    However, I've noticed a new behavior that seems like a bug in the new Messages app.
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open Messages app
    2. Initiate a non-FaceTime video chat via the Buddy List or the main Messages window video button
    3. Once the video is started, click on the Full Screen button in the window title bar or in the black toolbar at the bottom of the video
    4. After the video has gone full screen, move the mouse cursor
    5. At this point, the video will slide over (like a Mission Control / Exposé space). The video chat is actually STILL running in full screen view as a dedicated space -- you can slide back with the trackpad or the keyboard as per normal Mission Control controls.
    Step 5 is NOT the correct behavior as per OS X 10.7 Lion. Not to mention, the black toolbar is unusable and it's hard to reach the menu bar Full Screen toggle button since moving the cursor even one pixel makes the screen slide over.
    Has anyone experienced this? If yes, is there a solution? How do we bring this to Apple's attention for a future fix?

    I got the machine to reboot but I had to hold down the power button. I found an article on macworld that said to use the command +control+eject buttons to restart but no go. Nothing.
    There really... REALLY ought to be some way to exit full screen in such a case.

  • Message app disappeared with Mountain Lion install attempt

    I attempted to install Mountain Lion on my "early 2008" MacBook ... did not install, but somehow the iCloud Message app disappeared ... any ideas?

    However, if the connection is slow or flaky, it is difficult to get a clean download with a file that large.

  • CIMC on C210 server throws Error 2001: Service not available message

    I am trying to configure vmware on a brand new C210 server for the first time and the directions say to access the CIMC and load the vmware media. Sounds easy enough except every time I go to the CIMC webpage I recieve an " error 2001: Service not available"  message on every page I go to and none of the server info fields are populated. If I try to make any changes and save my settings the same message pops up and no changes are saved. Almost like the CIMC doesn't recognize the server or hardware. I ran the host update utility just now and upgraded the firmware for everything to the latest version but still no progress. Anyone have this happen or know how I can fix this?
    Thanks in advance!
    Jess

    I got it working on one of the servers, and havent tried the same solutions on any other server.
    What i did was manually adding an IP adress to the management IP, then save the config before rebooting. After rebooting i put it back to get IP from DHCP, and saved the config. After a secound reboot i was able to use the mangement interface without the 2001 error.
    I'm not sure if it will work on the rest of the servers, but it's worth a try
    Regards
