Hi,

I don't see the relevance of your Post.

You have linked to the Original Post (some three years ago) that was saying that the Poster had issues with iMessages not appearing in order.

Your Picture shows you changing a setting for Multiple Buddy Lists (The Account other than iMessages)

I have 9 other account logged in (also mentioned in this thread elsewhere)

I too can change the Status Messages in each Buddy List to read something different.

Note the list of Account on the Main Window, bottom left and the Status Message is each of the three Buddy Lists I have included

Effectively you are looking at a Contextual Menu of this menu item

Although this does not have the option to make the Statuses all appear the same or to be separate like mine.

If you turn all these Buddy Lists Accounts Off (line) (your Jabber and possible Bonjour accounts by the look of things) then the Status Menu item does nothing.

It does not effect the iMessages Account.

I know my pictures are from EL Capitan but I am not sure yours is from Mountain Lion either. (The dates shown in the main window are from 2014 and 2015)

This is for 2016 on... At some point there must have been an update or new iPhone or whatever... idk, but check your settings on your iPhone and make sure you are signed into messages. As soon as I signed in on my phone everything started to work on my Mac.

Hi Everybody -

I had to get a new debit card - this was the problem - make sure your payment info is up to date - update credit card and the messenger will work almost immediately -

I was also unable to delete all files from trash. If you open trash and right click on each, you can select "delete immediately" and that worked. Then I relaunched Messages. So far it's working again. Thank you for this info.

I simply turned off (via my iPhone6 settings (iOS10) Messages, and all of the on/off settings in Messages; then turned them back on again. Syncing is once again working just fine. 🙂

Yep,

That will work for Mountain Lion's version of Messages...

You have linked to the Original Poster who posted this question over three years ago.

That Poster has not been seen in this thread for some time.

Im having the same problem as the original post.

I cannot send messages from my Mac anymore. I am not receiving them from their either.

I have restarted Mac, singed in and out of iMessages, reset the time and date....

It just gets stuck sending at 80% of the blue line across the top.

I updated everything 2 days ago. It was all working yesterday.

Notes and calendar don't seem to be syncing either.

I turned my "Messages" on my iPhone 6 off, then back on again. Under SETTINGS > iMessage > turn off, then back on. My messages between devices worked fine after that.

Also, on your iPhone, turn TEXT MESSAGE FORWARDING off then back on again. I've not had any issues since I did the above.

I had the same problem and this fixed it.

On your iPhone/iPod go to Settings> Messages> Send & Receive.

Here make sure you add all your iCloud emails and phone number.

That solved my problems.

Hi,

Updated what to what ?

As I have mentioned several times in this Thread already the Original Post was for Mountain Lion and made over three years ago.

Here's what I did 1. Turned of FaceTime 2. Turned off messages the back on again 3. Waited 24hrs and then a send and receive message came up and I entered the code on my Mac screen. And boom! It worked!
