Somehow a conversation got deleted in Messages on my Mac. Now nothing from that person ever shows up. How can I add that conversation back in?

iMac, OS X 10.10

  1. In the Messages app on your Mac, choose Messages > Preferences, then click iMessage.
  2. Check the Blocked pane to see if the contact is listed.
