Message+

[doctrbob]

My Message+ desktop apps on two computers have popped up like I have never used them before and says Let's Get Started.  I then asks me to click and send a verification text to my cell phone and enter the Security Code.  I gett the text,but the Security Code keeps failing (Invalid Pin...) when I enter it so I am not able to log on.  Not sure what to do and can not seem to fingf the Desktop App to re-download to Windows.  Please advise.  Thank you

I have a similar problem, except I am not getting the code at all.

@doctrbob ,

It's great to know that you're using Verizon Messages. What is the operating system on these computers that you are using?  -Russell

I got Messages+ working on my iPhone. I am now trying to install it on my Macbook. It is stuck at the security code screen. It will not send a security code to my phone.

What would you like me to do from here?

Hello djlogan2,

Are you downloading the app from the Mac App Store on your computer?

I downloaded from the Apple official store for Mac apps.

Have you searched this Forum for related threads with possible solutions?

Re: Message + malfunction - Verizon Community

I had not seen that. There was only one actual suggestion in there (disallowing the app to access my contacts.) I did that (twice), but did not work.

My problem isn't that it crashes. It starts just fine with the "Start Messaging" first screen. Clicking on that results in a second screen titled "Security Code". Asking the app to send me a security code works as far as the dialog box goes, but no code is ever sent to my phone.

So no solution to this it appears...

I'm really sorry for the delay in responding. Is your service with Verizon Wireless, or are you just using the Messages+ app?

I am having the same problem and am a Verizon customer trying to use the Message + app on my MacBook

[djlogan2]

As of this writing, I just tried to run Messages+ on my mac once again, and it worked. Now with that said, I did go through the last update to Monterey 12.3, so I do not know if the update resolved the issue or if Verizon did something on their end, but as of now, this is resolved for me.

@Awilbeeg ,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue as well, but could you share a bit more about what "same problem" you are having? I ask because the person you had replied to says they do receive a verification text, while the subject of your 2nd post says that you do not receive a verification text.
