I tried to send a text message on my Mac with an attachment to several friends who use Android phones. The text was not transmitted and I received the following message "xxxx (recipient's cell number) is not registered with iMessage". Any assistance would be appreciated.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.12
