The notification badge on my Messages app is showing "-1".

Math error?

Once I launched the app the notification badge went away.

Strange.

HI,


In the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder type in ~/Library/Preferences

In the Preferences find the com.apple.imservice.iMessage.plist and drag it to the Trash.


Restart Messages.
