Q: Just updated MacOS Sierra(macbook air), imessages didnt change tho, can't react or do other new things.

I just updates my macbook to the MacOS sierra and everything went smoothly. However through the installation process, i saw the new features to the imessage. I checked, it does look slightly different, for example the solo emojis are huge now. However I can seem to react to the messages. Or maybe  I just dont know how to do it haha. But ive tried everything!

Any tips?

Thanks

MacBook Air

    Fix Sierra Installation

     

    Try each of these in order. Test to see if the computer is working properly:

     

    1. Reset the PRAM
    2. Reset the System Management Controller (SMC)
    3. Start the computer in Safe Mode, then restart normally. This is slower than a standard startup.
    4. Repair the disk by booting the from the Recovery HD. Immediately after the chime hold down the Command and R keys until the Utility Menu appears. Choose Disk Utility and click on the Continue button. Select the indented (usually, Macintosh HD) volume entry from the the side list.  Click on the First Aid button in the toolbar. Wait for the Done button to appear. Quit Disk Utility and return to the Utility Menu. Restart the computer from the Apple Menu.
    5. Reinstall OS X by booting from the Recovery HD using the Command and R keys. When the Utility Menu appears select Reinstall OS X then click on the Continue button.
