Hi,
I want to remove the iMessages from the Macbook (they're taking up a lot of space!) but I don't want to "delete" them. I want to keep them on the iCloud.
Is this possible?
Or how else does one "backup" iMessages?
Cheers
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15
no, once deleted, messages are erased. If you use messages in iCloud, iCloud serves only to sync across devices, not as a backup.

iCloud is your backup - it is a syncing service, not an off-site storage device. If you remove a message from Messages it is deleted across your account.
Delete iMessages from Macbook, keep them in the iCloud?
