When you were still bunch the app crashed and I couldn’t get in I have now lost all contact with fri

Hi! I understand that after the app crash with Bunch (now MiniParty), you’ve lost all your contacts and can’t get back in. Let’s see if we can get that sorted out together.

Just to clarify a bit—are these contacts you lost contacts within the MiniParty app, or are they general phone contacts on your Mac or connected accounts like iCloud? Also, have you tried reopening the app or reinstalling it already?

In the meantime, here’s a step-by-step to help recover your contacts or regain app access on your Mac running OS X 10.15.7:

1. Restart Your Mac: Sometimes, a simple reboot can clear app cache or temporary files causing crashes. Have you tried restarting since the crash happened?

2. Check Your Internet Connection: MiniParty may need an active connection to sync contacts and app data.

3. Force Quit and Relaunch MiniParty:
- Press Command + Option + Escape.
- Select MiniParty from the list.
- Click “Force Quit” and then relaunch the app.

4. Update or Reinstall MiniParty:
- Open the App Store.
- Check if an update for MiniParty is available and install it.
- If issues persist, uninstall the app by dragging it to Trash and then reinstall it from the App Store.

5. Check Contacts Source Accounts:
- Open the Contacts app on your Mac.
- Go to Contacts > Preferences > Accounts.
- See which accounts are enabled to sync contacts (iCloud, Google, etc.).
- Make sure you are signed in properly and sync is enabled.

6. Restore Contacts from iCloud Backup (if synced):
- Visit iCloud.com and sign in.
- Navigate to Contacts and check if your lost contacts appear there.
- If yes, the app should sync them back once connected.

7. If Contacts Were Only in MiniParty:
- Check if the app has any built-in backup or export/import functionality.
- Look for support or account settings inside the app for recovery options.

If you tried these or can provide more details on what steps you tried and specifics about the contacts’ location, I can guide you further accordingly.

Are you able to access any part of MiniParty currently, or is it completely unresponsive? That info will help me pinpoint next steps.

My bunch app crashed and then I lost alll contact with friends

Thanks for clarifying that your Bunch (now MiniParty) app crashed and after that, you lost all contact with your friends there. I want to help you get back connected as smoothly as possible.

Since your contacts are tied to the MiniParty app—which crashed—there are a few things we can try to recover them:

1. Restart Your Mac and Reopen MiniParty
Sometimes a fresh start helps the app reconnect with its servers or locally saved data.

2. Check Internet Connection
Confirm your Mac has an active internet connection so the app can sync data properly.

3. Update or Reinstall the MiniParty App
- Go to the App Store and see if there’s an update for MiniParty.
- If yes, update it.
- If no, uninstall the app by dragging it to the Trash, then reinstall it from the App Store.
This can fix any app corruption or cached crash files causing the problem.

4. Log Back Into Your Account
If you had an account or login tied to MiniParty, make sure to sign back in after reinstalling. Lost contacts may be tied to your account and will sync once you connect again.

5. Check MiniParty’s Account or Recovery Options
Look in the app’s settings or account area for an option to recover friends list or sync contacts.

6. Verify Data Sync Permissions on macOS
Sometimes, app permissions can prevent syncing contacts or data. To check:
- Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy tab.
- Select Contacts or Full Disk Access, and ensure MiniParty is allowed access.

If your contacts were synced with iCloud or another external account, it’s worth checking that they’re still available there (via your Mac’s Contacts app or at iCloud.com) since MiniParty might import them from there.

If these steps don’t bring your contacts back, or you need more help troubleshooting, let me know what you’ve tried, and we can explore deeper solutions together.

Are you currently able to open MiniParty at all, or does it crash on startup? That will help me guide you next!

I also don’t know my password that I used for my bunch account

Thanks for letting me know about the password issue! Not to worry, you can reset your password for your Bunch account so you can get back in and recover your friends list. Here’s what you can do:

1. Open your browser and go to the Bunch password reset page here: https://app.the-bunch.co.uk/tenants/app/forgot-password

2. Enter the email address you used to sign up for your Bunch account.

3. Submit the request to receive a password reset email.

4. Check your email inbox for the password reset instructions—be sure to check your spam or junk folder just in case.

5. Follow the link in the email to set a new password.

6. Once reset, try logging back into MiniParty (the new app name) with your email and new password.

If you don’t receive the password reset email or have trouble with the reset process, let me know. We can explore some additional recovery options or get you in touch with support if needed.

Did you want me to walk you through this on your Mac, or do you want to try it and let me know how it goes?

I am not receiving the email

Thanks for letting me know you’re not receiving the password reset email. Let's work through a couple of common reasons why that might be happening and how to fix it:

1. Check Your Spam/Junk Folder: Sometimes these emails get routed there by mistake.

2. Confirm the Email Address: Double-check that you’re entering the exact email you used to create the Bunch account.

3. Email Filters or Blocks: Your email provider might be filtering or blocking the reset email. You might want to add the Bunch/MiniParty sender address to your contacts or safe senders list.

4. Try Resending After Waiting: Occasionally, there’s a delay in sending or receiving emails—waiting a few minutes and trying again can help.

5. Try a Different Email (if possible): If you used a secondary email or social login, try that address for the reset.

If none of these get the email through, the next best step is to contact Bunch MiniParty support directly at [email protected] for help with account recovery since they can look up your account and manually assist.

Here is the official MiniParty website you might also want to check for support options: https://www.mini.party/

Let me know if you want me to guide you through any of these steps on your Mac, or if you want help drafting the email to support! Are you comfortable reaching out to support, or do you want me to assist?

The email still hasn’t come thrue

I see that the password reset email still hasn't arrived, which can be quite inconvenient. Based on what you've shared and the available information, here are a couple of additional things we can try:

1. Verify the Email Address from Bunch / MiniParty:
Sometimes, password reset emails come from specific addresses that might get blocked or filtered. Verify any emails you already received from Bunch or MiniParty in the past and whitelist or add those email addresses to your contacts or safe sender list.

2. Try Resetting via Bunch's Support Page:
You may want to check Bunch's official support page here: https://bunchapp.co/support.html and see if there are alternative ways to recover your account or submit a support request.

3. Contact Support Directly:
Since the reset emails aren’t coming through, the most reliable next step is to contact the MiniParty/Bunch support team directly at [email protected]. Explain the issue that you are unable to receive the password reset email so they can verify your account and assist with manual recovery.

4. Check Your Email Provider Settings:
Sometimes email providers may silently reject emails from certain senders. You might want to check your email provider’s settings or spam firewall to make sure the reset emails aren't being blocked or quarantined.

Since this is a specific issue with email delivery for password resets for Bunch MiniParty accounts, beyond the usual steps, [email protected] is your best direct help to get access restored.

If you want, I can help you draft the email to support with all relevant details. Would you like me to do that? Or if there’s anything else you’ve tried, please let me know!
