[FIX] Re: Messages+ not working on Monterey MacOS 12.0.1

[sttuhs · Accepted solution]

I found this in another thread.  This worked for me...

I was able to get it working on macOS Monterey (12.0.1) by changing this setting:
Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Contacts: Uncheck "Message+"

You lose the contacts sync but other than that it functions.

Thank you!!! This fixed the problem for me.

Easy fix if you know where to go. I currently have 12.2.1 installed and this still applies. 

Navigate to Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Contacts

Uncheck "Message+"

Contacts won't sync, but you can read and respond to messages.

I'm having the same problem. As soon as I upgraded to Monterey, my Message+ stopped working.

ON EDIT: The solution SECURITY AND PRIVACY ---> PRIVACY ---> CONTACTS ---> Uncheck "Message+" worked for me and now I can use it.

Thanks!

I don't understand why this is still a problem.
