ApplicationsHi,
I take it you mean that you think your iPhone and Mac using the Apple ID are set up for Text Forwarding which should let the Mac send green bubbled SMS Messages to the iPhone to send via it's carrier service to non Apple phones but that you can send blue bubble iMessages to known iPhone numbers.
I would check the Settings on the iPhone > Settings > Messages > Text Forwarding and check your Mac is listed and Selected to do this.
If it is and it is still not working turn the text Forwarding Option Off and then wait for a period (about two mins at least).
When you turn it On again the open to link to the Mac should need resetting which causes the Code Number panel to reappear on the Mac version.
You might have to try several times to ensure the pop up with the Code number appears.
Enter the new Code back on to the iPhone.
