Finally, one more trick: Tap Send & Receive, then tap the Apple ID button at the top, and finally tap Sign Out. If that fails, too, in Settings > Messages toggle iMessage from On to Off and On.
If that fails, log out of your Apple ID account (click Sign Out) and then log back in. If you have an iPhone and your number doesn’t appear as an option to receive iMessages in OS X’s Messages program, toggle the Enable This Account checkbox. It can often be a case of too much information. An alert also appears when you add an address to your Apple ID or activate iMessage on an iPhone. When you change the addresses you’re using for iMessages on one device, the system will let you know about it on all your others.Īs of iOS 6 and Mac OS X 10.8.2, whenever you remove or add email addresses or phone numbers to Messages, or toggle an address or number off or on, every other piece of hardware associated with that Apple ID for iMessage pops up a notification informing you of the change. Click Add Email to follow the same path as with iOS to add another address to your Apple ID account, and thus make it available in Messages to use with iMessage. A list of email addresses appears under the You Can Be Reached for Messages At label. Log in to the appropriate Apple ID, if it’s not already connected. In Messages in OS X, you choose Messages > Preferences, click the Accounts button, and select the iMessage entry. This leads you the Apple ID site, where you confirm the address. You add additional emails by tapping Add Another Email, then following a link embedded in an email message that will be sent to your Apple ID’s main address. You can tap to toggle their use as destinations on that device, or tap the blue detail arrow to remove the address altogether you can delete it from your Apple ID account, too, after you confirm that you want to do so. On all other devices, you see a list of phone numbers and email addresses that you’ve verified with your Apple ID. On an iPhone, the phone number will be checked and grayed-out, and cannot be de-selected you can only disable iMessage on the device. To set up all of these options in iOS, you tap Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
If you have an iPhone or iPhones, their phone numbers can be used with any other copy of Messages logged into the same Apple ID as well-that’s how you can get iMessages sent to your phone number on your Mac.
Starting with iOS 6 and OS X 10.8.2, when you are logged in with an Apple ID and you open the settings for Messages, you’ll see a list of every email address associated with that Apple ID.
