• How can I transfer all the messages/conversations from my iphone to messages.app on my mac?

  Hi people,

  Maybe someone can help me:

  How can I transfer the entire contents of my messages app on my iphone to the messages on my mac app?

  the problem is, when I create in the messages app a new account with my appl ID (for example on a new mac) I also use with my iphone, so everything worked very well for the starting point of creation.

  BUT... some older posts, I have on my iphone will appear in the new messages.app - account on my mac.

  I have thousands of old messages and conversations, I now can only see on my phone or with some more or less useful third party apps. those who cannot vonert messages to a PDF file or som other format useful semi > but no one can transfer it in the messages app.

  • I learned that apple does not save my imessages for more than 72hours (which makes me happy because of the confidentiality of the data), so I can't take via imessages-servers.
  • I also learned that it is possible to transfer data from the library files to a previous account. but unfortunately, I've just accidentally deleted those files, so this solution won't help:
  • I had serious problems to enable the transfer of SMS on a second mac (I guess I failed it in between), I went in the ususal trial & error-process and disabled the account of messages on the mac.
  • After that, I deleted all caches using onyx. then I restarted the iphone and the macbook and restarted the messages app.
  • the app behave like the 'never used before': I entered my apple, app ID remind my cell phone number and all other settings from the old account, but THE MESSAGES WERE GONE alle.
  • I don't know I deleted the using onyx. but there should be a way to win back them?

  the system configuration:

  • Start "2011-17 - macbook pro with latest el capitan (10.11.6)"
  • iPhone 6 with latest iOS (9.3.5)

  PLEASE Please HELP me - even if I use third-party software...

  Hello

  Can't do.

  iMessages are pushed by the iMessages servers to devices recorded at this time there.

  They are not held on servers and are deleted as soon as receiving devices accept.

  (that is, it is not like electronic mail that can be left on the server (POP) or rest on the (IMAP) server to be retried by other devices that can identify you later).

  How the files/iMessages are stored on the iPhone and the way the Mac stores are not the same.

  It is possible to have the iPhone one store backup via iTunes on Mac.

  From there on, it is possible to use third party applications to read (check out them and make them as text files), but they cannot be forced into Messages.

  By copying and pasting entire conversations from one chat to another it's the Mac send s just like a long piece of text with few (not in use) formatting.

  Can also have problems with actually duplicate the whole file with space on the iPhone in the first place.

• How to have separate conversations w / the same person in messages app

  Hey guys,.

  is it possible to have several conversations with the same contact but different addresses in the messages (El Cap) application?

  My problem: I have two conversation with the same person: I text him through iMessage using his e-mail and SMS (phone number, no iPhone) that appears in the application messages through continuity (or let do or what they call that). However, the iMessage cat and the cat of text message (which is separated on my iPhone) is mixed in a chat on the Mac (which is a mixture of blue and green bubbles). And when I type a message on the Mac it's a lottery if it will be sent as a text message or an iMessage. On the iPhone, it is clearly separate.

  How can I have discussions in the messages.app on my Mac?

  Thank you

  Phil

• consolidation of two Mac OS messages.app archive / database (old SMS migration to new mac)

  Hi, some time ago I move from the MBW Unibody (Yosemite) to the MBP (as the new Yosemite and El captain now). System files of old, full of junk mac, did not migrate to a new. I had an iPhone 4S at this time, later I change 4 s to 5 s. It took me a while to realize that my archive messages.app on new MBP starts from a ~ September and there is no SMS messages more former both on MBP and 5s.

  I know that it is not a problem to replace my new archive old MBP but I want to keep the MBW SMS old and new SMS of MBP.

  Copy of name/library/Messeges/Archive users/user content does nothing.

  Someone at - he had idea of:

  1. consolidate the chat.db, chat.db - shm, files chat.db - wal?

  2. force download messages from old iPhone 4S for MBP

  3. He made?

  Will be grateful for the help, I just can't work it out by myself.

  Hello

  The chat.db elements are the SQL files and you could (I have not tried) get and application that can read the files to merge some.

  (2) cannot be done. Although the files are on the iPhone and can be backed up in iTunes, then a utility used to bring in text, there is no way to get this into Messages.

  The files are for a different OS (only compatible applications between them - that would be like trying to work with the LENS for PC files saved in the Mac version)

• Problems using Messages app for you sign in to messenger FB

  Hi all!

  I used to use the messages app on my mac to chat on messenger FB. As you may know, we can do this by creating a jabber account in the messages application. However, for these past months, it has just stopped working and I'm basically impossible to connect to my jabber account (e-mail FB). Whenever I try to connect, he asks me to enter my password then it says that my username/password is incorrect.

  Well, they are not bad I can use the same passage to connect to my FB and I checked my username on FB just to be safe.

  I did everything possible to try to resolve this problem. Called apple care, went to the genius bar etc... None of them know what to do. 90% of them did not even know he xas actually gets set up an account jabber and cat by FB messaging directly from the messages app.

  In any case, I hope that someone who is a greater genius than the geniuses at the apple store can help me to sort.

  I have:

  MacBook Air 11 '' - end of 2014

  OS X El Capitan

  Any help to make it work will be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

  Hello

  https://developers.Facebook.com/docs/chat

  While this Doc says April it was July before most people noticed and it seems that some are stayed connected or were able to reconnect since then as well.

  Basically, Facebook has closed their Jabber server (those with @facebook.chat.com IDs)

  They were launched from a separate application for Macs and have a different game in place in login pages in a browser for the cat.

• Messages.app Hello fresh white Prefs 10.11

  I can't activate Messages.app Hello. It is a fresh out of the box MBAir. At run a migration of users and applications. Messages.app account prefs looks to below; Hello accounts preference is totally empty.

  Here's what I've tried so far...

  -deleted all the prefs com.apple.ichat and com.apple.messages, I could find in ~/Preferences

  -new local administrator account

  -Upgrade to 10.11.2 (comes avec.1)

  -Start

  -Zap PRAM

  -new network location

  -nothing extraordinary in LaunchAgents/demons

  Not sure what else to try after a fresh charge of the OS, but this seems a bit extreme, especially for a fresh out of the box system. Thanks for the tips.

  

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  Step 1

  The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is localized to your user account.

  Select the feedback connections* and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

  While signed in as a guest, you will have access to your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Do not be alarmed by this behavior; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

  Test while signed in as a guest. Same problem?

  After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

  * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create a new account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

  Step 2

  The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is caused by changes in the system of third party that load automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Please take this step regardless of the results of step 1.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of steps 1 and 2.

• Build - in the message app not to receive all messages facebook

  I found the app to build-in the message, unreliable and unreliable. Sometimes I (hit and Miss) Note facebook message does not come through the message app (my phone has received the message from facebook, but is not my surface.). Sometimes connected standby and awake on my RT of surface State. My machine is updated and the application is updated too.

  Me too!

  I also noticed that the messenger app is unable to receive messages that are part of group conversations in Facebook.

  I spoke with some experts on this subject and I realized that even if facebook isn't obvious, it is in fact a technical gap between "messages on facebook" and "facebook chat" (two different platforms in fact). The cat, based on the jabber network is what the messenger app connects to.

  Obviously more work remains to be done here!

• Sierra Messages App is forcing the use of the discrete GPU

  Since the update of my mid 2015 15 "MacBook Pro to Sierra, Messages.app requires the use of the discrete GPU and kill my battery time.

  All the world fell on this and if so, have you found a solution?

  Here, even with a MacBook Pro in early 2011... problem seems to be based on the new 'features messages"that you can use in iOS 10.

  From messages app, the internal GPU is used until I get a message with one of these new features to messages. Then the GPU will switch to the discrete GPU AMD and continues to work with him until I left messages app.

• iOS10 live wallpaper behaves differently?

  Hi, I just got my new iPhone Plus 7 and it seems that the Live wallpaper behaves differently than in iOS9.

  Namely, in the old system (on an iPhone 6 more) by varying the pressure on the screen I can control precisely of the wallpaper Live playback speed and easily play to the front/rear.

  In iOS 10 (on the new iPhone 7 more) it seems that the reading speed of the Live wallpaper has no can be controlled by the pressure.

  Is this normal? Or do I use a screen may be defective? Thank you!

  Same here on iOS iPhone 7 10.0.1

• MacBook Messages app

  Expected the Messages app on my MacBook was updated for the texts of my iPhone?

  Hi there, wmsandwms!

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. From your post, I am not sure if you want your Mac to pass messages text or if you want to stop. Whatever it is, it is usually easy and to turn this feature on or off.

  Messages (El Capitan): get and send SMS messages -use this section to set up text Message transmission.

  To turn off, on your iPhone, tap Settings > Messages > text Message transfer and turn it off. You can also go to your Message on your Mac preferences and disconnect the the ID share your Mac and iPhone.

  Have a great weekend!

  I upgraded my iPhone SE iOS 10 today with the percentage of the battery to 90%

  After a few hours update, my phone battery is 53%, when I checked the battery I found the message app has consumed more than 20% of battery.

  Update after a few days, the battery issue seems to have disappeared, it could be due to the upgrade.

  No problems and I'm in love now

• Messages.app and Facetime.app do not open after OSx updated 10.11.5 Mountain Lion

  Last night, I've updated my Macbook Pro in early 2011 at the El Capitan 10.11.5 Cougar (Yes, the leap). Open all apps to check out them, and Facetime.app and Messages.app are not open.

  FaceTime.app gives the message "an internal FaceTime error has occurred. There was a problem with Facetime. You must exit and reopen Facetime. "A few times. No change.

  Messages.app: Last night after update, I opened it and gives the message "Messages is updated... The database of Messages is in the process of modernization, please wait until it is finished or Messages Quit and restart it later. "Allowed to do that during the night (about 7 hours). App reopened this morning and nothing went up, no new window, no error message, no light 'walk' on the dock; but, if you click on it showed the "Application does not message." After a few re-openings, it's the message even 'Messages is updated"as above.

  I have not tried anything other than a restart.

  Any ideas on what to try? Thank you in advance!

  create a new administrative account, start to this account and see if open programs.

  otherwise, open the Console.app (from projector to type "console" without the quotation marks)

  clear the console log (clear view)

  Launch the application

  Paste the result to the console in this thread for analysis.
