FaceTime no longer working with Yosemite and IOS 8.1

I have used FaceTime flawlessly for some time with no issue.
After I upgraded to Yosemite on my MacBookAir and IOS8.1 on 5S and iPad air, I've had a problem connecting.
When I get a call, all the devices ring (as they should) but it will not connect on the first device I pick up on.  It says connecting
but all the other devices keep ringing and finally it says I have a missed call.  The connection does not happen.  If I turn off
all devices except one, it will work...... do we have a bug here??

Thank you for responding to my issue.  I spent the better part of two hours trying to get this to work.  Bluetooth is enabled on all devices. Each computer is set in Preferences/General to allow Handoff.  All computers and iPhones are on the same WiFi network.  I toggled all of the major settings off and on.  Rebooted each of my computers several times. I finally conceded defeat.  Then my daughter asked to have a try at it.  She worked on the first MBP for about thirty minutes and informed me that she had gotten continuity to work.  And indeed, on her MBP late 2012 she is able to use the continuity features in both directions between her computer and her iPhone 6.  But it only works with Mail and Safari.  I asked how she accomplished this feat.  She said she turned off "everything" on her computer and iPhone (WiFi, Bluetooth, "Allow handoff" under Preferences/General) and then rebooted both the iPhone and the computer.  She then turned everything back on.  This worked for her.  So we tried the same thing on my MBP and iPhone 6.  Now continuity works partially. Email activity is mirrored on both the MBP and the iPhone regardless of which device initiates the continuity activity.  But Safari activity on the computer is mirrored on the iPhone but not in the opposite direction.  There is no continuity function for Pages in either direction.  The telephone connectivity works fine on all of my devices– 3 MBPs, Mac Pro, iPad Air, 2nd gen iPad and 3rd gen iPad.

  • Handoff not working with Yosemite and iOS 8

    I have three Macbook Pros in my household.  Two are mid 2012 models and the other a late 2012 model.  Each is supposed to support the handoff feature of Yosemite and ios8.  Everything seems to work properly between my daughter's late 2012 MBP and her iPhone 6.  But on the other two MBPs in our family the continuity feature does not work on either of them.  Receiving and sending calls works fine.  But the continuity does not work even though all three MBPs and all three iPhone 6 are on the same wifi network.
    I've tried all the suggestions that I could find.  Toggling off and on the various settings on the MBPs and the iPhones.

  • My iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    my iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    How did you buy iPhoto? Did it come preinstalled on your computer with Lion or later, or did it come with Snowleopard on system installer disks?
    Which version of iPhoto?
    If you have a version of iPhoto '11 and it is showing on the Purchased tab of the App Store, with your Apple ID, then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder  (don't empty the Trash) and download iPhoto again from the Purchased tab.
    If that does not work, contact The App Store Support  from the Quick Links on the AppStore main page.
    Only apple Support can fix problems with apple ID.

  • Unable to use iMessage on Mac with non-IOS contact with Yosemite and IOS 8.1

    I have an iPhone, an iPad running IOS 8.1, and a Mac running Yosemite.  I have set up all 3 to use iMessage, entering the codes as requested.  The 2 IOS devices work fine and the Mac works fine on messages to contacts with iPhones but non-IOS contacts remain red and are not accepted and if I try to send a group message with a non-IOS contact I get  "XXX cannot be added to the group chat - XXX is not registered with iMessage".  I have tried deleting and replacing the contact and it still will not accept her.  I understood that this would be fixed after updating to Yosemite and IOS 8.1 but the upgrades have not resolved the problem for me. 
    In my Mac iMessage preferences:
    1-I am signed in with my Apple ID and the account is enabled. 
    2-In the "You can be reached for messages at" field, I have my iPhone number, preceded by a +1 and the area code and 3 email addresses (icloud, me, and gmail)
    3-in the "Start new conversations from" field, I have my cell phone number  - also with a +1 and area code.
    4-I have checked all of my Apple ID and iCloud details and they are all correct. 
    All other Handoff features appear to be working correctly.  Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks very much -

    Hi,
    It will suggest and look like it will auto-complete until you type further.
    As 204 is unlikely to be the full number the issue does not arise.
    For instance if I start typing my name every option that I have listed with my name over three Contacts card (for my three computers) and some Accounts not linked to Address Cards are listed
    Of course this lists also shows cross connections between the accounts making the list longer.

  • ICloud Safari History not syncing across my devices with Yosemite and iOS 8

    I have a MacBook Pro with the latest update of Yosemite installed, an iPad 2 with iOS 8.1.1, an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.1 and other things seem to be syncing like my bookmarks, reading list, and all other iCloud data as well as iMessages and text messages. But the one thing that does not seem to be syncing is my browsing history in Safari. This is supposed to be a new feature of Yosemite and iOS 8 and it is working for a friend of mine but not me.
    How can I fix this? I've tried going into iCloud settings on all three devices and turning off Safari sync and then turning it back on but no luck.

    I spoke with Apple support again this weekend. The first support specialist told me that Safari browsing history was not a feature at this time. When I sent a screenshot of the notes of what updated in Safari 8.0.2 on December 11, 2014 from the AppStore, I got transferred to a senior support specialist. They had me try things like log out of icloud and then reset my network settings on my devices. But that unfortunately did not work. My next step which I did not have time to do, is to see if it is my iCloud account by creating a new iCloud account, logging out of iCloud and then resetting my network settings and then logging into iCloud with the new iCloud account and see if Safari history syncs.
    I'm not sure what they will do for me if it is my iCloud account because I have so much on that account and have email addresses that I don't want to lose. And if it isn't the iCloud account they said it is probably my devices but I am not sure what they will have me do to try to fix it if it is. Set them up as new? I don't really want to do that, it takes forever to get everything back on the device.

  • Canon MP600 printer no longer working with Yosemite

    I have an iMac, Mid 2011 with OS X Yosemite Version 1010.2 installed.  It has 4gb of memory and a 2.7GHz Intel Core i5 processor.  Of my 1TB of storage I have 934.81 GB free.
    Since returning from a recent holiday my Canon Pixma MP600 printer has not been recognised by my iMac and I am no longer able to print from it.  It did work with Yosemite before I left and I have been unable to restore the printer on the on the Printers and Scanners list.  I have tried to uninstall the printer software and go back a step to install it with OS Mavericks but having gone through that process once it did not work.
    Does anybody have any suggestions?

    Hi trev1124
    I have tried a number of ways to reinstall my printer but it does not appear in the drop down menu under Printers and Scanners and no matter what I seem to do will it come up.  I am just about at my wits end with this.  Short of binning my current printer (which was working perfectly well by the way) and buying a new one I do not know what else to do.
    If anyone has any other suggestions I would be most grateful.

  • Sync speed in Pages with Yosemite and iOS 8

    Is anyone else finding the use of Pages in iOS 8 frustrating becaus of the slow — really SLOW — speed at whch documents are syncing between devices using iOS 8 and those using Yosemite. Yeeesh! I about read to go back to Mavericks and iOS 7! I have an iMac, a Macbook Pro, an iPad Air, and a iPhone 5. I have to wait 5 - 15 minutes many times to be able to create a new document or to retreive a document and use it.

  • Remote app no longer works with Yosemite.

    Since downloading Yosemite, my Remote app no longer works. Have also been having recurring problems with email security certificates.

    Same problem here after updating my iPad to iOS 6.1 and the Apple TV to the newest firmware. I open the remote app then I select Apple TV the screen switches to connecting to Apple TV but it never finishes it is stuck at connecting to Apple TV. The App has no problem finding the Apple TV but it seems unable to connect, home sharing is activated on the
    App, the iPad and the Apple TV.
    Tried resetting setting and factory restore on the Apple TV, deleting and installing the Remote App in my iPad 3 but the problem persist.
    On a twist the the Remote App on my iPhone 4S updated to iOS 6.1 works perfectly and it has no issues connecting to the Apple TV it seems to be an iPad issue. I will tried connecting to the Apple TV with an updated iPad 2 later and I will report back.

  • IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update

    Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL).  I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone.  Anybody else having this issue?  I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore.  I'm at a loss with what to do next.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Its becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
    My Apple has become a LEMON!!
    Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!!

  • HT6601 FaceTime does not work with Yosemite...what a pity!

    Upgraded my iMac to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and suddenly my FaceTime doesn't work.... Looks like FaceTime is not compatible with this OS... What a Pity and a waste of time not being able to use features in your computer just because it looks like Apple made a boo-boo on this upgraded version...Tsk Tsk!

    Several million people, including me, are using FaceTime with Yosemite. Do you have a question?

  • PCS no longer working with contacts and 6086

    I have applied the latest release of PC Suite 6.84.10.3.
    Previously the installed level was 6.83.14.1
    The send/read/write message still doesn't work but hangs the Windows Explorer for a while (this hang didn't occur previously)
    But now, the contact facility no longer works. It is no longer possible to edit a contact, to store it locally or to send it to the phone even a message says everything is OK
    (translate it from french: The contact has been well recorded into the phone)
    Folder browsing still works correctly, either the phone folder or the memory card folder
    Need a fix or a way to install the previous version, at least for the contacts...
    This is a really negative feedback!

    I guess what I learned is that sometimes the best solution is to do nothing and wait for the problem to solve itself! Funny, this has never worked for me before.
    WOT is now working for me but often for only the first few rows of images. That's cool that it is also working with bing images.
    Boudica, thanks for understanding. I am new contributor/ question-asker here on mozilla and may not understand how things are done. I was just frustrated, getting an email saying that my question was answered, logging in to find that it wasn't.
    Now we have the functionality that we wanted, right?

  • Web of Trust no longer working with google and bing image searches

    Hello All,
    I have searched and searched but have not found an answer that matches my specifics. Any help would be appreciated.
    I used to be able to do this but now I can no longer search and browse images on google or bing image search and have Web of Trust function. Here is how I am going about it.
    What I use:
    DuckDuckGo's annoymous google or bing image search link when I enter querries. Also, searching directly from Google's or Bing's image search page doesn't work with WOT anymore either.
    Firefox 23.0.1
    The following add-on's:
    Add-block plus 2.3.2
    BetterPrivacy 1.68
    Flagfox 4.2.12
    Ghostery 5.0.4
    Google/Yandex search link fix 1.4.1
    No Script 2.6.7.1

  • IPad no longer working with projector and HDMI splitter after iOS 6.0.1 update

    I just installed iOS 6.0.1 this morning.  I use the iPad in my business tied into a projector via an HDMI splitter.
    My projector was working fine, I installed the new iOS, and now I can't get the projector to recognize the iPad output.  Just giving me a "no source" message.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    You can try these suggestions and see if any work for you. The first one is definitely an iOS 6 only suggestion.
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
    Even though you are connected to the Internet, it might help if you reboot your router anyway. Unplug it for about 30 seconds and thenlug it in again.
