mati_moto Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Hi there! I have a problem with iMessage. I know about NVRAM fixes and the others, but in my case, still it doesn't work. Still it is an activation problem. Now I am wondering how can I resolve my problem. Because I have a two network interfaces, WiFi and Ethernet, I've checked in terminal the 'numbers' of these interfaces and look what I've found!

Ethernet have name en2. So why the iMessage still does't work? Should I change a naming of the interfaces?

pinarek Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 alexis6669 a very old video, where you can still use the com.apple.Boot.plist. Furthermore, much more factors for the function of iMessage are necessary such as nvram.plist deposit and credit card and so on.

Rampage Dev Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I have a section on my Blog in regards to all the login items for Mac OS X: http://rampagedev.wordpress.com/os-x-tweaks/how-to-create-a-recovery-partition-and-enable-all-features-of-icloud-and-imessages/ I apologize for those who seem to want to mislead you. You will need FileNVRam to enable messages however as you can read on my guide that you can create a permeant Nvram file which holds the keys that FileNVRam creates. Those who have been posting misleading information should excuse themselves from this topic. Thank you. Let us know how it works out. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/297841-imessage-doesnt-work/#findComment-2018529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
