The Symptom
Content sent to you via Messages doesn't appear in the respective apps' "Shared" or "For You" sections.
The Fix
- Verify Global Settings
Go to Messages > Settings > Shared with You.
Ensure "Shared with You" is toggled ON and that all app checkboxes (Safari, Photos, etc.) are checked.
- Re-link the CloudDaemon
In Terminal:
killall cloudphotod
killall identityservicesd
- Check Individual Contacts
If it's only missing for one person, open your chat with them in Messages. Click the "i" (Info) button and ensure "Show in Shared with You" is enabled for that specific thread.
Pro Tip
"Shared with You" requires both parties to have iCloud active and for the sender to be in your Contacts app. If they aren't a contact, macOS hides the content for privacy.
