I can send and receive messages from every person on my mac but one. All of them have Iphones also. The one person i cannot receive messages from, I can send messages to though. All of my messages go through on my mac and Iphone. The persons messages show up on my Iphone but do not show up on my mac. Maybe a syncing problem? Im not sure. Any opinions would be great.
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
Hi,
So the iPhone and Mac have the same Apple ID set in iMessages.
This means your can send blue bubble iMessages to each and everyone from either device.
Incoming messages appear in grey coloured speech bubbles on both devices.
It is only when you go to Send that a message may then swap to a green bubble one indicating SMS on the iPhone.
IF...
The one person is getting green bubble response from your iPhone then you would have to check the Text Forwarding settings to see if it is set up to Forward them (SMS) to the Mac.
Your Post refers to generic "messages" rather than being specific.
I have used that to possibly explain why one scenario might not work.
