[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1798000, member: 83420"] Hi rainbowcat, This is what I think you may need to do. Could be wrong,of course, but this is how I have my set up. On your iPhone, go into settings, then messages, then Send & Receive. Tap on that, it will show your Apple ID at the top and underneath - YOU CAN BE REACHED BY IMESSAGE AT: You should see your iPhone number and then your email accounts: In my case these are [email]example@icloud.com[/email] and example @me.com ( I go a long way back). Assuming you have an iCloud account, which I guess you must really, it should be shown. Tick it. That ensures you can receive text messages on your MBA. Below that is START NEW CONVERSATIONS FROM. Here again, you can select your mobile number and, if you wish, your iCloud email address. If you tick your email address, that means you can start a text message from your MBA. I think going down this avenue will solve your problem. Please let us know. Ian [/QUOTE]
