Hi all,
I recently enabled iCloud sync for the first time in the hopes of getting the same messages on all devices. Unfortunately, that's failed. I can't seem to upload all of them from Device 1 (2014 iMac) to Device 2 (2020 iMac) and Device 3 (iPhone 11 Pro Max).
I was wondering if there is a way to instead manually move the messages. So far I've tried:
Copying / replacing ~/Library/Messages
Copying / replacing ~/Library/Containers/apple.ichat/Library/Messages
I've done this from both the most recent folders and also went back and did this from pre iCloud sync folders. In both cases when transferring them to the new iMac, I'm still only seeing messages from a certain window in time (dating back to 9.25.2018) which I believe is what is currently in iCloud sync.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
