Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have noticed that one contact in particular can txt me and I get notifications on all devices except my MacAir for some reason. They are not a restricted or blocked contact. nor message history in txt window. However, if I look at info, the pictures shared via txt are there. Any suggestions????
Hello tavares4013,
Thanks for that info and for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If I understand correctly, you are unable to get notification for a specific contact on your MacBook Air, but you don't have this issue on your other devices. First, try running First Aid on your hard drive with the built in Disk Utility tool, as this can correct simple issues like you're experiencing.

Next, use safe mode to start up your Mac as it does the following things:
Log in to your user account and test the issue while in safe mode and then restart normally and test the issue again.

The Safe Mode step worked perfectly. I don’t know what that had to do with iMessage but thanks for the assistance. Greatly appreciated.
