AirDrop from Yosemite to iOS8 doesn't work for me

Hi there,
I think I know the answer to this (but I hope not because it's lame).
I have a 2011 macbook pro that can airdrop to other macs fine but I can't seem to do it to my iPhone 6 (running iOS 8). Is this because my mac is too old? I keep looking into the airdrop thing because it sounds great but I just never seem to have the correct arrangement of devices to make it work
Thanks,
Pete

Yes, it's too old.
Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
"In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed and your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model."

  • [kde] "Only show tasks from the current desktop" doesn't work for max

    Hi,
    I have two monitor setup (laptop + main monitor) and I would love to use "Only show tasks from the current desktop" option in KDE Task Manager but for some strange reason it doesn't work for me. Well, it works but only partially - for restored/unmaximized windows. When I maximize one it appears on the Taskbar on both screens. Is this normal? May it be due to the fact that I've placed Taskbar on top of the screens?

  • "scan from string" to timestamp doesn't work for 18:00:00 (6PM)

    I just found a strange issue in LabVIEW.  I hope I'm doing something silly, but I just may have found an unusual bug.
    run the snippet below with the following for the input string: 03:00:00,18:00:00,17:00:00
    Time converts fine for just about any other time EXCEPT 18:00:00 (6 PM) for which it is returned as 00:00:00 (midnight). If you even add a second to it (18:00:01) you get back the expected result.
    Here's hoping I'm not loosing my mind

    As annoying as it may seem, this exact scenario is an abuse of the timestamp. A timestamp is meant to be used for absolute times. And that includes a date. As Ravens Fan already pointed out, the 0 seconds since January 1, 1904 GMT is used in all timestamp display routines to mean the canonical invalid timestamp and hence the timestamp control displays the default string indicating the actual date/time format rather than a specific date/time.
    If you need an absolute timestamp, for instance because you do want to have a local time indication, although the date is not relevant, adding an offset of 86400 to all values would fix it once and for all. Now the timezone offset can't cause the timestamp to reach 0 ever, even if you reside west of GMT, and it will be fine (until you start to do timestamp arithmetic that involves subtraction of relative timespans, then you would have to make the offset big enough that this will never get an issue). The current date would serve as a nice offset for that, which would be MattH's last suggestion. Nice to see that the Scan from String routine actually does use the passed in timestamp as default value and only replaces the values it is configured to parse.

  • On Yosemite outgoing calls doesn't works

    Hi there,
    I have and MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) OS X Yosemite (10.10) and iPhone 4S iOS 8.0.2
    Actually I can receive a call on my Mac and it work very good but when I try to make a call from my Mac it doesn't work.  I see the advice: "...you have to use the same iCloud account..."
    What could be?
    Thanks!

    In addition to what Greg suggested, you also need to check the option "Use ext. ph number mask " option under route patterns or under each individual route list - > set the Ext ph number mask to On.
    You can find detailed steps here.

  • Photostream from PC to Ipad doesn't work

    Hello, I have installed ICloud on my Ipad en on my Windows 8 laptop. Photostream from Ipad to laptop is ok but from laptop to Ipad doesn't work.
    I have contacted Apple support but the couldn't figure it out, I tried everything: disable firewall in router and laptop, also disabeld Defender, installed a new
    ICloud, installed new OS on the Ipad, all the photo's are in the upload folder, the battery of the Ipad is 100% filled, the Wifi works ok. etc.etc. I suppose that
    there must be a wrong configuration somewhere, perhaps the Wifi must be in BootP on the Ipad or I have to enable a kind of service in the laptop or perhaps
    it is just a stupidity from me? Who has an idea?
    Thnx RJZ

    Looks like they changed how this works in iCloud Control Panel 2.0
    "On a PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later, open a Windows Explorer window. Select Photo Stream under Favorites. Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select photos to import to My Photo Stream, and then click Open."
    And here is the source:

  • Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, navi and linked images are broken.

    Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, <navi> and linked images are broken.
    The data of CS5 was created at another PC. I installed Cloud version into two different PC. One has had the site data since dreamweaver CS5 and it works correct in Cloud version. Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.

    Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.
    This implies your site is not properly defined in DW.  Go to Site > Manage Sites.
    Or simply go to your other installation of DW and export the site definition file from Manage Sites.
    Save it to a flash stick or other removable drive.  Then import the STE file into your 2nd installation of  DW.

  • Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

    Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.

  • I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work.

    I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work. It always comes up with a notification saying, 'Safari could not download this file'. Why does it do that? More importantly, what should I do? how do I download it?
    Thanks to the users who reply to this. It will help me a lot.

    What type of file is it?
    If safari can't natively open the file, or there is no App installed thatr can, it won't download.

  • I'm viewing this from Firefox because Safari doesn't work

    Safari simply doesn't work for me from most networks. Any attempt to load up any web page gives me a "Safari can’t find the server" message. Every other browser works: IE, Firefox, lynx, even wget works. But Safari doesn't. It only fails on ethernet networks. For example it refuses to work at the hotel I was just staying in and at a friend's house. But it works at home or at a convention I've just been to because they provide wireless. Every other internet service is working fine and every other browser is fine. What does the type of network have to do with the browser? And why does it only affect Safari?

    After several hours I solved my own problem. There was an http proxy set. For some reason it was only active for ethernet networks. The error reporting in Safari is dismal. It could have reported "cannot find proxy", and maybe even told me what proxy it was trying to connect to, rather than just giving a vague report that it can't connect to the host forcing me to work sequentially through every single menu option in an attempt to track the problem down. This is supposed to the the OS that "just works", not Windows.

  • The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that  wifi network

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

    This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

  • Central Autoreaction Method doesn't work for NW 7.10 in SolMan 7.01

    Hello!
    The central autoreaction method doesn't work for the satellite system
    NW 7.10. For systems with kernel releases 4.6D, 640, 700 this method
    works fine and e-mail alerts are coming.
    The configuration steps I've checked:
    1. Configured SCOT. The mail_send job executes every 5 minutes.
    2. Background dispatching job is released: SAP_CCMS_MONI_BATCH_DP (In
    central CEN/000/DDIC and satellite system SAT/000/DDIC)
    3. Central dispatching job is released: SAP_CCMS_CENSYS_DISPATCHER
    (Only in central system CEN/000/DDIC)
    4. The sapccm4x-agent registered as web service within CEN using
    Create Remote Monitoring for NW 7.10:
    Connection test to SAPCCM4X.<satellite_host>.00 was performed successfully
    5. Created a new autoreaction method by copying method
    CCMS_OnAlert_Email_V2 to the own Z_CCMS_Email_Alert_CEN:
    Function Module - SALO_EMAIL_IN_CASE_OF_ALERT_V2
    Execute Method on Any Server and Only in Central System, triggered by
    CCMS agents
    SENDER (EMAIL_USER) exists in CEN/000 , RECEPIENT - <distr list
    SAP_BASIS in CEN/000>, RECIPIENT-TYPEID - C
    6. Got MTE Classes from NW 7.10 satellite system and assigned this method
    Z_CCMS_Email_Alert_CEN to an MTE-class CCMS_ORAucPSAPSR3 for NW 7.10
    satellite system. The alert is red right now.
    7. The mail_send job doesn't send anything, in SCOT there are no
    sending orders.
    8. Autoreaction status on this alert in CEN in RZ20 - Sent to CEN.
    CEN_CHECKED.
    9. The alert status in RZ20 in CEN - ACTION_REQUIRED. If I execute it
    in manual the alert status changes to ACTIVE, but no email and no
    messages in sending orders in SCOT.
    Please help me to solve this issue.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    Since you are using RECIPIENT-TYPEID =C i.e. General distribution list, pls ensure to have shared type of list created in SBWP.
    Also pls verify your SCOT configutaion , if apropriate address area i.e. *@abc.com
    Also one point to note that even if you trigger auto reaction method manually via RZ20 , pls check if alert is listed in SOST.
    if yes , that means there is problem in either SCOT configuration or distribution list.
    If alert is not appearing in SOST , that means you need to check auto reaction method parameters;
    Z_CCMS_OnAlert_Email_V2 , here check release section if Auto reaction execution method is checked.
    Regards,
    Rupali
