Q: iMessage erradic since updating password

Hello. I recently had to update my Apple ID password. Ever since, I am unable to reply to certain chat threads on any device and am experiencing other anomalies. For example, I can message two people individually. But if I try to message those same two people as a group message, my comments don't send, nor do I receive messages from the other two individuals.

 

Any advice?

 

Cheers.

iPhone 5c, iOS 8

    Hi,

     

    On a Mac the Apple ID if issued by Apple (@mac.com, @me.com if linked to iCloud at the change over and @iCloud.com) can be used as AIM Screen Names as well as the iMessages Account's ID.

     

    You also only list an iPhone  so I am not sure which app you are talking about.
