I very recently bought a 2020 13.3" MacBook Pro. It would sporadically receive text messages, but not all of them. Now it doesn't receive text messages at all. I can send!
I have tried rebooting, I have tried signing in and out of Apple ID on all devices, I have tried restarting, etc. etc. etc.
Please tell me how to fix this!
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0
Read here:
See if your iMessages are enabled in iCloud. Go to Messages > Preferences, then click iMessage and make sure Enable Messages in iCloud is on. Also, check the "You can be reached for messages at" section and make sure its all enabled.
You can also check your phone settings or other device settings and make sure that Messages are enabled in iCloud (Your Name/Profile > iCloud and make sure the tick by Messages is enabled.)
Thank you for responding. Unfortunately, this didn't work. I'm also having those ridiculous issues with Apple's utter inability (unwillingness, I say) to deal with the decades-old problem of being unable to change or delete old Apple IDs, and I have a very strong feeling that my issue with iMessages is related to that.
That looks like it might be helpful, thank you. I'll definitely read through it. Right now, I'm going to stop thinking about it for a while!
Why won't my four-day-old 202013.3" MacBook Pro receive text messages?
