Can't connect my iphone with macbook air

Updated both my iphone 5s and my MacBook Air with latest software and was so excited to start using handoff, but it´s just not working.
Maybe there´s someone who can help me and guide through all this.

The following may help (although many are still having issues): Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite
One thing that has been a source of confusion is people are attempting to pair the phone and Mac via Bluetooth. You cannot do that. Bluetooth needs to be on for both devices and they need to be in range but you cannot pair them. Here is an excellent article about that: Bluetooth: Why can't I pair my iPhone or iPad with my computer?

  • Can older charger be used with MacBook Air?

    Can older charger be used with MacBook Air? Charger with cylindrical magnetic male end was lost. Charger for older white plastic MacBook is available, but is it safe to use with MacBook Air.

    You have to use the right power adapter.
    You can order one from Apple store.

  • How can i connect my iPhone with my pc !! still my swipe is not working still my pc ask for accept device on iPhone

    how can i connect my iPhone with my pc !! still my swipe is not working but my pc ask to accept device on iPhone!!!!

    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.
    How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
    If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

    Use the USB Cable/Power Cord supplied with your phone. Attach the USB connecter to your pc. Open iTunes, if it doesn't automatically open, and select your device when it appears in the left-hand column.

  • I can not connect my iphone with windows 7 64 bit via bluetooth

    how can i connect my iphone 4 via bluetooth and when i connect iphone with laptop it says "bluetooth peripheral device"  drive problem in my device manager, why"

    This is not a feature of iPhone.  Bluetooth file transfer is not supported.  Unless it's for the specific purpose of tethering, the iPhone will NOT connect to a computer via bluetooth.

  • You can use the final cut with macbook air 11 x 4GB with external hard drive

    I can install and use the final cut X, with macbook air 11", 4GB with an external hard drive, and them transfer to the mac pro

    No, not directly. You would need to transfer your data from your iPad to your Mac and then back it up to an external drive.

  • Having trouble with connecting my iphone and macbook air using bluetooth for internet tethering

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue connecting my iPhone5 to my Macbook Air using bluetooth primarily for internet tethering - personal hotspot.
    Every time I try to pair my iPhone with the Macbook Air, I get the error on the iPhone that 'the device that I am trying to connect is not supported'.
    Can anyone provide assistance to me on resolving this issue.
    Thankyou,
    Ashwani

    You can't resolve it using bluetooth because it is not a feature you can use here are the supported files for bluetooth http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
    YOu will have to contact your carrier and enable personal hotspot as suggested by questionaire.

  • Can't pair iphone with macbook (air)

    I haven't been able to pair my iphone 3GS with my macbook. I want to pair it via bluetooth to use an app that I purchased to control keynote.
    I have had this problem with a macbook and macbook air.  Two weeks ago my main computer was an older black macbook and my iphone would not pair with my macbook, I thought maybe because the macbook was just getting on; as my (bad) luck would have it I was foced to purchase a new computer, and purchased a macbook air and I am just finding that it still doesn't work.
    When I go to pair it, I can get to the point where I accept the pair but then when I click on pair from the iphone, it says my macbook is not supported.
    I have searched these forums and have not found an answer that works for me. Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

    This is a problem with the bluetooth and the macbook air.  I mentioned the reason behind my need to pair - as it is not to share music, internet, etc. which I understand may be an issue.  I cannot find how to get support from the app maker, which is apple from my understanding. This app, keynote, only controls the keynote app on my mac. I haven't had any problem pairing the iphone and keynote but I need to control my keynote using bluetooth, as I have no garuntee that I will always be in a place with wifi or be able to access the wifi.

  • Can't connect to Wi-Fi MacBook Air 2012

    Hello,
    I know this issue has been posted already here, but I've had a real hard time trying to figure out what should I do in my case, so here is my situation:
    My MacBook Air 13", Mountain Lion 10.8.2 is experiencing problems to connect to Wi-Fi in public places. It was working very well until a week ago or so. I used to go to different cafeterias to work so I know it was working very well, but now I'm going to the same cafeterias and there is no way I can connect to the internet. The signal at the Menu Bar does indicate the connection is strong an solid, but when I want to connect to any website, invariably it tells me it couldn't connect.
    I am not that skillful with computers so if you have a suggestion for me, please explain to me as if I was a 5 years old non-native English speaker. Thank you so much for that! My English is good but sometimes I just miss things. Thank you so much everybody and looking forward!

  • Using iphone with macbook air to access internet away from home

    Can I use the iphone as a dongle to access internet on Macbook air. I find using the iphone fiddly and would prefer the laptop when away from home.

    You can, but you have to pay an additional fee to AT&T. I think it's about $20/month for tethering.
