Can you help me send files such as Apple Numbers spreadsheets via text message? I see a red exclamation point and an error message that says: "Not Delivered."
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.6
You appear to be sending it to someone without an Apple device so it is going SMS.
I have had attachments sometimes not send via SMS (really MMS). I normally see it with pictures, so I assume it might be a size issue. Different cellular carriers have different size limits for texts, so what might work to some people may not work for all.
But, I am not really sure why it doesn't send.
A Numbers spreadsheet isn't a file. It is really a folder with files inside. That may be why it doesn't send via SMS.
Is the spreadsheet just data, without any formulas that need to be sent? You can export it to CSV format and might be able to send that.

Thank you. There are two spreadsheets I tried to send -- one is 144K and one is 134K. I believe that Apple Numbers spreadsheets are files. So the size of the file shouldn't be the issue.

They may be. It may just be Pages that are packages.
