[QUOTE="Mikeo512, post: 1938675, member: 404931"] With regard WhatsApp via a linked iPhone and an MBP, I got this to work and exchanged a few messages with people that I know. But ... but ... lo and behold, the very same evening, I got a stern message from WhatsApp to say that my account had been closed ... the reason given was Spam! Cannot understand why this happened because my messages were banal and to people that I know. My a/c is now on hold while they investigate. Could it have something to do with the fact that I downloaded the WhatsApp app from the Apple Store rather than from the WhatsApp site itself? Or is the fact that I'm linking from an iPhone causing an issue? On a different tack, it seems the addresses (mobile phone numbers) need to be those that are held in the call book of the iPhone: I don't think one can just manually enter an address (mobile number) and get this to connect. Or am I wrong? When ... if (!) ... they reinstate my a/c, I guess I will also be able to access WhatsApp from my iPad, via the same linked iPhone.. Thanks in advance for comments. M [/QUOTE]
