I'm trying to turn off messages on the Mac.
Seems like now i get duplicate messages on my iPhone and Mac.
I just want to keep those distractions (messages), off my Mac for now.
**Solved, i couldn't find Message App on my Mac System Preferences, i typed "Messages" in spotlight, found it, and did what the post above suggested. Thank You Again !!!!
Took me a while as well. I tried it out and send my daughter a message and it showed up as coming from my other daughters number. Can not edit the number it is coming from either, at least not that I can find. Had to disable the whole thing.
Maybe this OS will be ready for primetime some day but all I am finding is bug after bug and dead ends with no options.
Doesnt work. Messages still come up on mac even when not active.
I did this some time ago and still even though its not active I still get the damn messages from iphone on mac. If I disable Imessage oon iphone I can no longer sms my wife. Didnt have these issues in Mavericks. I totally regret upgrading to Yosemite. Not only ugly but buggy. I dont want messages showing on my mac from sms on phone. WTH apple!
