iMessages - Deleted messages not synching across all devices

When I delete a message(s) from iPhone and/or iPad, they delete on those devices but not iMac. When I send a message from any device, they synch across all devices. All devices have "Messages enabled in iCloud". iPhone = v18.7.1, iPad = v 18.7.1, iMac = v26.0.1 Please point to any documentation that resolves this issue...thanks

iMac 24″, macOS 26.0

iMessage on Mac not syncing automatically to iCloud For the past few weeks after activity on iMessages on my iPhone 14 iOs 18.5 I am not seeing that activity on my Mac Studio M1 running Sequoia 15.5. In other words they are not automatically syncing. If I manually sync through iCloud the missing messages will show. This is a fairly new issue.

Messages no longer syncing between iPhone and Mac mini All of a sudden messages received by iPhone (18.6.2) no longer sync to mac (15.6.1). No changes to either device. Toggling imessages on/off, verified both on safe iCloud account, powering off/on, etc dod not solve the problem. Where else to start looking to restore sync?
