"Not Delivered" SMS messages when sent from Messages on new MacBook Pro since software update

Recently updated my software on my iPhone and MacBook Pro to the latest versions (ie: iOS is now 17) and suddenly the messages app on my MacBook Pro cannot send SMS messages.

Sending iMessage via MacBook Pro - Works

Receiving iMessage via MacBook Pro - Works

Sending SMS message via MacBook Pro - Not Sending

Receiving SMS message via MacBook Pro - Works

I have double checked my message forwarding settings on iPhone, and have looked to see if there is anything obviously wrong on the MacBook Pro's settings, but can't seem to get it to work.

Is this software related due to recent software updates?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.6

Hi Wheatiesau,

We'd like to share some information to help you with MMS issue with macOS. Looking over Forward SMS/MMS text messages from your iPhone to your Mac or iPad - Apple Support would be the correct steps to ensure this will work as you intend. If this is what you have followed, signing out and back into Messages via your Apple ID is another method that may help. If you continue to experience issues, you will want to consider contacting Apple Support.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
