Getting imessage to sync between device

I have an 4s that used to sync to my Ipad mini and my macbook pro. every device have the latest update. now my message doesn't sync.

I went to setting >imessage>text message forward on my phone. the problem I have is I don't get the code on my Mac or Ipad, like I'm suppose to.

Have you double checked your settings?

  1. You need iOS 8 or later on your iOS devices and OS X Yosemite or later on your Mac.
  2. Sign in to iMessage with the same Apple ID on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac.
  3. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Add a check to both your phone number and email address. Then go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding and enable the device or devices that you want to forward messages to.
  4. Look for a code on the Mac, iPad, or iPod touch that you enabled. Then enter this verification code on your iPhone.


If everything checks out with your settings, try signing out of iMessages everywhere and start all over again. Remember that you need to check the email address and the iPhone number.
