SMS forwarding to MacBook issue. Good evening. Earlier this week, I noticed that my SMS messages on my iPhone weren't forwarding to my MacBook. I've tried signing out of iMessage on both my MacBook and iPhone as well as toggling the "Text Message Forwarding" option and it didn't seem to work. Does anybody have any ideas?
