Messages

Hi,

I'm sure I'm missing something stupid, but I'm having an issue with Messages on the Mac/iPhone.

I tend to have my MacBook on during working hours and use Messages there. I then switch to my iPhone when I leave the office. If I start a conversation on my Mac, then when I go onto my iPhone its not there.

What's more, if new messages are sent to me, they don't come up on my iPhone, but only appear on my Mac.

My understanding was that conversations could be continued between Mac and iPhone. Did I misunderstand, or have I set something up wrongly?

Any suggestions welcome!

Thanks in advance

Hmmm. No, I don't.

Just tried turning text message forwarding on on the iPhone and it responded saying I need enter a code shown on my Mac. However, nothing's shown on my Mac! The Mac and iPhone are both on the same local wireless network and have internet access.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for that.

It worked in the end after much frustration using my office network, I tried again on my home network and it magically worked. Most mysterious.

I assume *something* important it blocked from my office network, although that's surprising since most stuff is allowed.

Ah well, working now - in part thanks to your info - so thanks very much for your help!
