We already heard about Apple’s latest desktop operating Mac OS X Yosemite. The company announced about this new operating system on 2nd June and spent a significant amount of time telling about Mac OS X Yosemite. Yosemite’s preview was really impressive as Apple revealed many of its interesting features.
The most interesting feature is that you can send and receive text messages on Mac OS X Yosemite. So you can also contact with the users who do not have iMessage through text messages on Mac. Before Mac users were able to contact with other users through iMessage but ordinary text messages facility was not available. So the users, who had iMessage, only they were able to send and receive iMessage from other iMessage users.
The facility of messaging on Mac made the way of communication much easier. Apart from SMS, other interesting features of the new Mac OS X Yosemite are that facility of making and receiving calls on Mac, and Handoff. Handoff makes your work easy by allowing you to shift your activity from your Mac OS X Yosemite to iOS 8 and vice versa.
For example, you are working or viewing a website on an iOS 8 device and there is Mac OS X Yosemite nearby you. Then each of them watches the other to see what you are doing and also give you the facility to shift the activity to the other device.
However if you want to send and receive text messages on your Mac OS X Yosemite, then read on below:
1. Launch the message icon on your Mac OS X Yosemite.
2. All the messages that appear on your iOS 8 device will appear on your Mac too.
3. To initiate a text message, type the phone number of the person whom you want to send message or select phone number from contacts, calendar or Safari.
4. Then type message and click on the send button.
5. When your friends send texts, you will receive notification. Click on that to read the text message.
