Hey Wvllegal,


We understand you're not getting your texts on your iPad and MacBook Air. We'd be happy to help you get those devices set up to start receiving those messages again.


The best way to ensure your messages stay in sync across all your devices is by using iCloud. For help with setting up Messages in iCloud, check out:


Use Messages in iCloud


Additionally, if you need help with getting SMS messages to forward to your iPad and MacBook Air, you'll want to turn on text message forwarding. For help doing so, check out:


How to forward SMS/MMS text messages from your iPhone to your iPad, iPod touch or Mac


We hope this information helps!


Take care.
