Unable to send text messages from MacBook

I'm guessing it was a recent update, but my MacBook Pro has stopped sending text messages. I am receiving them now on there, but still cannot send. I've checked settings in messages on both ends - all should be working fine. Help :(

Do you mean SMS messages (green)? Or iMessages (blue)? Or both.


If you mean SMS messages, Text Message Forwarding probably got turned off on your iPhone. On your phone, go to Settings>Messages>Text Message Forwarding and select your Mac.


See here for more info:

If you mean something else, please explain.
