Messages Not Working 2017 MacBook Pro Ventura 13.6.6

Messages refuses to load. App stops responding, cannot open messages, check or reply to anything on 2017 MacBook Pro running Ventura 13.6.6. It works on my iPad, iPhone, and older iMac desktop at work, but my personal laptop is refusing to launch the app. I keep reporting it when force quitting, and restarting does not fix the issue. Not using any third party apps or anything. Simply trying to get messages to work properly again. Anyone have a fix for this?

Messages app is not connecting on my MacBook Pro laptop OSX 11.6.8 but does on the old one OSX 10.11.6 Messages app not connecting on MacBook Pro laptop OSX 11.6.8, but does on old one OSX 10.11.6. Why? I saw a post with the following steps to take: After trying each step below, try to send a message again. Restart your Mac. Choose Apple menu  > Restart, then click Restart. Make sure that your software is up to date. Learn how to update the software on your Mac. Make sure that your Mac is connected to the Internet. To check your Internet connection, try loading a page in Safari or another web browser. Check that the date and time is set correctly on your Mac. Make sure that you enter the correct phone number or email address for the contact. ALL of those situations are NOT an issue. What else is there and why hasn't this issue been resolved by now? My newest laptop came out in 2013. A fix surely should have happened by now, so where's the patch? My laptop software is all up to date.

Message + won't open on my MacBook Pro I've been using Message+ successfully forever to text with my Verizon account on my MacBook Pro, but now tthe app won't open on my MacBook_just a grey window with no content. I've trashed the app and reinstalled but same thing. Won't open. All I see is a grey window. Any guidance on how to trouble this would be appreciated. Verizon techs are of no help. Supposedly there is no other app other than Message + to text on my laptop with my Verizon account. Please advise. thank you.
