In this post, I am going to quickly share how you can add Facebook Messenger to your OS X’s built-in iMessages Application.

Follow these steps to setup the Facebook Chat Messenger on your iMessages app.

1) Start iMessages Application and open it’s Preferences

2) Goto Accounts Tab and Click on “+” icon to add a new account.

3) In the Account Setup window, input the following details as –

Account Type: Jabber
Account Name : username@chat.facebook.com
Password: yourpassword

Server: chat.facebook.com
Port: 5222

You can view these settings in the image below, to ensure that you input correct values.

Hope this helps you.
