[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1805054, member: 83420"] Actually, the method Bob suggests, despite being the Apple-approved way, does not work for me either. I am on macOS High Sierra. The workaround is clumsy but works! Open Messages on your Mac. Find the message you want to Forward. Use your cursor to highlight all the text. Use Cmd + C to copy it. Now click on the "New Message" icon, it's a square with a pencil in it, immediately to the right of the Search field at the top. Choose your recipient(s) and then Cmd + V to paste the message into the text box of the new message. Hit Send. There has to be a better way. Dashed if I can find it. And of course this applies to text-only messages. Attachments....? Ian EDIT Also found that if you want to send ALL the messages in a conversation, click on a blank part of the conversation window and Cmd + A will select all the messages. Then Copy and Paste as above. I'll keep working on this. Ian [/QUOTE]
