Messages App Crashing Mac

Why is my message app crashing

If you are an advanced Mac user, you may find it okay to remove Mail.app’s “envelope” index to overcome the described problems. Perhaps, it is a malformed message, which makes the application fail. In many cases, simply choosing the faulty e-mail may lead to a crash. Restart your Android phone. Restarting your Android phone clears RAM and temporary.

You can use Disk Utility to determine whether the file system is formatted as case-sensitive. To do this, run Disk Utility, select the hard disk drive partition, and then select the Erase tab to view the Format option that's selected. If either of the case-sensitive options are selected, you may experience this problem.
