    Hello fredfromtaylor, 

    From your post I understand that your Messages are no longer working on the iPad. If you also use an iPhone, what I would like to have you do is to check and make sure that you have the Continuity settings set up. You can review this article for more information. 

    Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch
     

    Set up SMS and MMS messaging


    Use this feature with any Mac, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that meets the Continuity system requirements. Make sure that your devices are set up as follows:

    • Each device is signed in to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
    • On iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Make sure that the Apple ID at the top of the screen is the same Apple ID that you're using for iMessage on your other devices. Add a check to your phone number and email address, so that you can be reached by iMessage at both. Do the same on your iPad or iPod touch.
    • On iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding, then choose which devices to allow to send and receive text messages from this iPhone. If you're using two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, a verification code appears on each of your other devices: enter that code on your iPhone.
    • On Mac, open Messages, then choose Messages > Preferences. Click Accounts, then select your iMessage account. Make sure that the Apple ID shown here is the same Apple ID that you're using on your other devices. Add a check to your phone number and email address.

    Additionally, please review the guidance in this support article:

    If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support



    Let me know how things go. If you still have issues, please respond back with what exactly is going on when you attempt to use Messages on the iPad. 

    Have great day!
