How to fix green bubble iMessages after updating to iOS 18.3.2?

I updated my iPad, computer and iPhone to new operating system and iMessage does not work anymore. I cannot send messages from my iPad or computer anymore and my phone sends green bubble messages.

Please fix this bug. No one has time to mess around with this.

We are just fellow users and can't fix bugs. We can try to troubleshot though. Let's start by heading over to Settings on the iPad, then scrolling down to "Apps", then look for Messages. Once you find it, scroll down and make sure the "iMessage" toggle is on. Also, tap on "Send & Receive", make sure your iCloud email is allowed to send and receive iMessages.


For the Mac, go to Messages. Then go to the menu bar and click on "Messages", then click on Settings. Once under that, head over to the "iMessage" tab. Under their make sure your phone number and email are selected.
