Are you having a problem syncing messages between iPhone and Mac? One of Apple Mac’s great features of late has allowed users to load the messages that let’s you transfer them to computer. Unfortunately, new features don’t always work flawlessly, and in this instance, some aren’t finding the messaging transfer running smoothly to say the least.

The problem isn’t due to any fault of Apple’s. There isn’t a bug of any description, per se. However, there is a common problem users face when they set up iMessages on the iPhone based on the phone number and not the Apple ID. Here’s a solution for that problem:
