Handoff works only from Mac to Iphone

Then handoff from Mac to iPhone is not working but does work from iPhone to Mac.
It used to work previously but haven't used it in a while until I needed to yesterday.
I've tried resets and so forth but no luck getting it to work from Mac to iPhone.
There is one thing that bugs me and that is the wifi part. Handoff worked (& currently works from iPhone to Mac) without turning wifi on (turning it on does not solve the issue). Should it work without wifi?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated,
Leonardo

it appears that you are not alone...i have been using Handoff since it started and have just noticed that today it is not working....I have a macbook, iPhone and Mac and usually it is working fine between all three, but today it appears that it is not...
interestingly, yesterday I got a random notice that i was signed out of iCloud..when in fact I wasn't...dont know if there is something bigger going on.  i've tried turning handoff off and on again but nothing.  don't really want to start signing out as i don't know what i have stored on my mac

  • Yosemite iOS8 airdrop only from mac to iphone.

    I Have a Macbook Pro 15" Early 2013 with yosemite installed, and a iphone 6 with iOS8.
    My problem is on my macbook airdrops work fine, i can see my iphone and i can send a file from my macbook to the iphone, But not the other way around.
    On my iphone i can't see my macbook under airdrop. i have tried change the option only contacts or all, both on the mac and iphone. that doesn't help anything.
    i have tried turning off the firewall. that doesn't help anything.

    Nice you worked that out, but i have tried this. It's not working for me. I permanently get "connection unsuccessful.
    After the iphone found your macbook, does it work all the time or only when you pair it.?
    This is a screenshot from my macbook.
    go to About this mac > System Report > Bluetooth.
    Discoverable: Off
    I'am wondering if that has anything to do with why the iphone can't find the macbook.

  • Syncing apps only from mac to iphone

    Hello
    I've gone though all my apps in itunes on my mac and deleted all the ones I no longer need.
    I now have a tidy much smaller list.
    I would like to sync this new list, and in doing so, remove any others from both my ipad and iphone.
    The end goal is an identical list of apps across all three.
    Problem is, I do not have a 'sync apps only' option. If I choose sync it starts copying across images, mail etc.
    I have selected the iphone on the left, I go to apps, then I have whats on the iphone.
    I just want to sync the list thats on my mac
    Do I really have to export a list from itunes, then manually cross refer and delete one by one from the iphone to get a copy?
    Possible?
    Any help much appreciated. Spent a good while searching the net, yet I do not have the 'sync apps' option.

  • Syncing of calendar works only from icloud to iphone but not the other way round

    My iphone is suddenly not syncing with icloud anymore. I sync only the Calendar (ical). From the icloud calendar to the iPhone calendar syncing is working but not the other way round. I was at a genius bar but they could not solve the problem. Apple phone support suggested nothing I haven't tried like reboot etc. Any ideas how to solve the problem?

    Go to Settings>Mails, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to Calendars section and check the Default Calendar. Must be the iCloud calendar. If you don't see this option it means that you have only the iCloud calendar in your iPhone. In that case try to turn off the Calendar from iCloud settings and turn it back on after few seconds.

  • Calendar entries on iphone not syncing to my macs. Syncing via mobile.me and works well from mac to phone

    Calendar entries made on my iphone are not syncing in to my ical calendar on my macs. Syncing via mobileme. works well from mac to phone.

    I am having a similar problem. I think that my phone  actually deleted a couple appointments, as well. Today I entered a repeating event on my phone. It still has not shown up on my MacBook or my iPad, hours later. I believe it is because my iCloud Sync was turned off on my phone. I just checked - It said that my password was entered incorrectly. I think that must have happened when I upgraded to iOS6. I fixed it now and am waiting to see if my iCal sync happens.

    how to get photos from mac to iPhone 6? when i try it just comes up iCloud instead of my photos

    Make sure Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta) = "Off"
    Then sync your iPhone using iTunes and make sure your sync settings for photos are set correctly in iTunes.

  • What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)

    I feel like I should know the answer to this. I can't believe it is a hard question.
    What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)
    Easy? Right?
    Just plug my iphone in to a mac and copy a photo from the mac to my iphone.
    I don't have internet access - I can't email it, or mobileme it, or dropbox it.

    iTunes. Other than that there is no direct method. However, do try the iPhone forums.

  • My Genius mixes do not update/sync from MAC to iPhone 5S

  • HT3529 I have lost all data on my iphone and the back-up is too old. How can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4? I have all the chats on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    Hi,
    I have lost all data on my iphone by mistake. I needed to restore the phone and I didnt realize my back-up was 1yr old, and now the phone is restored and I've got a year old contact list and iMessage chat history. Luckily my iMessage on the Mac is still valid and has all the chat history. My question is how can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4 from my Mac? I have all the chat history on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

  • How to delete photos transferred from mac to iphone ?

    I have searched on Google "how to delete photos transferred from mac to iPhone"
    It returned the following result :
    To do so just:
    In iTunes select the device icon in the Devices List on the left. ...
    Choose Sync photos from, being iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac and Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements on a Windows PC.
    Choose Select Albums and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.
    But the problem here is that I have deleted the album which I synced via iTunes on Mac.
    Now how can deleted those synced photos from my iPhone ?

    No. Hook it up to any computer running iTunes. Make sure that you do not have any of the other tabs set up to sync, so that you do not overlay the info you have on your device for Music, Movies, etc., then go the the Music tab and un-check Sync Music. This should remove all sync'd music from your device. (this is presuming that the Mac you sync with does not have any photos you do want to sync with your device. If it does have any photos you want to sync, then instead of turning off the Music syncing altogether, you can just select what you do want to sync, and the sync will remove all other sync'd albums).
    Cheers,

  • EM DB console works only from one node?

    In my 2 node RAC the enterprise manager database console works only from one node i.e the url shows login page only from one node.
    http://NODE2:5500/em------>WORKS, SHOWS LOGIN PAGE AND CAN MANAGE ALL INSTANCES FROM HERE
    http://NODE1:5500/em------>DOES NOT WORK, DOES NOT SHOW THE LOGIN PAGE.
    Please clarify.
    Kadhim

    I have to guess ... (because you tell neither OS nor database version). Assuming it's 10gR2 or higher, that's expected behaviour, dbconsole runs on one node only, the so-called master node. You can change that, see the documentation or this metalink note:
