Q: Messages stopped working. Late 2011 macbook pro, Os 10.10.5
Messages has completely stopped working. I've reset my icloud password and deleted the old files in the library, but I get a blank screen. I still get notifications, but can't see them. Cannot access preferences and cannot send a new message. I've attached an edited print screen of what I see. Any help appreciated. Thanks,.

Hi,
In your case open the Font Book and check the AppleGothic (all one word) font is there.
It should be Active, not duplicated and should Validate (File Menu).
Also check Lucida Grande and Helvetica Neue
The top one is normally the cause of the app not launching fully and denying access to the Preferences.
