Unable to send SMS on my iMac with Sequoia 15.4.1

I recently went overseas and used a travel sim (now deleted). Since coming back Mac will no longer send sms messages, unless to myself.


Any ideas please?


iPhone 14 Pro

iOS version 18.4.1

Mac as below



Thanks!!

You’ll likely need to contact your carrier about this. Your iMac sends SMS messages via your iPhone or WiFi. Make sure both your iMac and your iPhone are using the same Apple Account (formerly Apple ID). Make sure your iPhone is correctly optioned to allow messages to be sent from your iMac.


iPhone->Settings->Apps->Messages->Text Message Forwarding->your iMac should be listed there. Make sure it is enabled.
