For the past year and a half for more, my Messenger app on my iMac keeps crashing. It will be working fine, then all of a sudden it will close itself, and when I try to reopen it, it asks for my Username and Password but it NEVER works after that. I have to completely reboot my entire computer in order to get it to work again. Does anyone know if they're working on this or is it just something I'll have to deal with ?
iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.13
Exactly what third party:
are installed?
Mac OS does not require nor does it benefit in ANY way by adding these types of apps. They have a long history of making Mac OS slow, unstable, appear buggy (much like you are describing) and offer exactly NOTHING in return that Mac OS cannot already do. All Mac OS needs is to be kept up-to-date and to restart your Mac about 1x per week, other than that please leave it alone.
Whatever app(s) you have installed please locate the developers uninstall instructions and follow to the letter. Then restart the computer in Safe Mode and then restart normally and finally test. If the problem is still there then we will request for you to provide an EtreCheck report of what has been installed and we can offer further instructions.

Try starting up in Safe Mode followed by a normal Restart and test.

I also encourage you to run the EtreCheckPro tool on your iMac to get a better idea of what's happening.
Are you referring to the macOS Messages App. or the Google Messenger App...?
Are you having slowness and other problems...?
If so, then this is a good time to get and run EtreCheckPro from > https://etrecheck.com/en/index.html
and then post your Report, as per > How to use the Add Text Feature When Post… - Apple Community
+1 A Full Storage Drive and CCM is certain disaster.
You need to Free up some Storage Space and Uninstall any and all Cleaning App's as per the developer's direction.
What is the name of the cleaning app?? This is critical, if it's what I suspect it is I can say with some confidence it's the source of the problem. The app I am thinking of is CleanMyMac.
BTW, do you have any of the following third party apps installed on your Mac?
· Antivirus Apps
· Cleaning Apps
· Security Apps
· VPN Apps
· Maintenance Apps
The Apple Messages app. Official. It will just shut down and won't even open again unless I reboot. It's not slow, and there are no other problems. Just tired of it deciding to stop working for no reason whatsoever.
Actually, I do. I was told when I bought this mac that I didn't need anything more than a 250 gig hard drive because I kept everything on externals, but I keep running out of hard drive space, so I have to get rid of the junk that accumulates because of Firefox and Photoshop.
Oh, sorry. I have a cleaning app that can take care of almost anything.
