How can I send iMessages to an iPhone from my Windows PC?

[alexmvp 369]

At home I have a MAC where I send iMessages to my wife on her iPhone and iPad. When I'm at work I'm on a Windows 7 and Windows 8 PC. Is there anyway for me to send imessages to Apple devices? is it possible or am I outta luck?

Thanks

Have you looked into running a Mac Virtual Machine on your PC? I've never done that, but I'm wondering if this would be a solution..

 

Yeah I bet it probably would... but kinda a huge work-around

At this point in time, it's not possible from a Windows box. I don't think Apple cares much to enable it either.

One thought is perhaps they will add it to icloud.com but will see...

Yeah, but if you don't find any other solution, that's an option

For the Windows PC use Skype. It has a chat section. Free too. We use that from my daughter in Ireland (W PC) to us on Macs

You must also have a mobile phone so use Whatsapp.
