Handoff Works Only One Direction

Apple has forced me to change my password to make updates to my account. Every since then, Handoff has stopped working one direction.
Going from OS X (10.10.3) to iOS (8.2 now 8.3) actually works, for both my iPhone and iPad.
However, the other direction isn't working. I've tried disabling and re-enabling handoff on all my device. Neither iOS device is sending or can send to my MBPro. This has also broken my ability to receive SMS texts in my MBPro. As both devices accept Handoff just fine, but neither can seen to hand-off successfully, I'm inclined to think it's my MBPro having the issue. And given it does work one direction, we can rule out Network or connectivity issues.
Has anybody else experienced this problem? What can I do to get this back working again?

Follow the instructions in this support article. All the devices using Handoff must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. If the Mac also has an Ethernet connection, disconnect the Ethernet cable.
If Handoff still doesn't work, on the mobile device, turn Handoff off and back on as directed in the linked article. On the Mac, turn Bluetooth off and back on. You might have to restart a mobile device to get it working.

ICloud calendar syncing working only one direction. help

I'm using iCloud to sync with my calendar. However, I can only see the events that I post using my laptop. I can't see the appointments I create directly from my iPhone. Can anyone help me figure this out?

Google iPad Sync Microsoft Exchange - Sync only works in One Direction

I have setup my iPad to sync with Google calendar using Microsoft Exchange, which supposes to work bidirectionally.
I found that it only works in one direction such that anything in my Google calendar (includes all the subscribed calendars in Google) got sync to my iPad. After I add a new event in my Google calendar, it is pushed to my iPad.
On the other hand, any new event I add to my iPad calendar is not updated and shown in my Google calendar. This means the sync works only in one direction:
Google Calendar Event --- sync ---> iPad (works perfectly and the event is pushed almost pushed instantly)
iPad Calendar Event. --- sync ---> Google Calendar << FAILED >> (Event entered to my iPad never shows in the Google Calendar)
Sync works unidirectionally but not bidirectionally
Anyone has encounter this problem and is there any solution?

I don't think the solutions here are for the question that's posed.
I have an Exchange account set up on my iPhone 4. I want my Exchange calendar to sync with my Google calendar. I set up Google Sync, and I can see both calendars. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to get the two calendars to sync with each other. i.e., if I create an event on my iPhone, it doesn't push to both calendars. I have to pick one or the other.
The solution Stanley Wong suggested only sets Google as your default calendar; it doesn't actually sync the calendar events between the Exchange and the Google calendars. Unless I missed something?
Is there a solution for actually syncing the two calendars with each other? It seems like we should be able to create an event on the iPhone and have it sync to both phones without having to have Outlook open on a PC and using Google Calendar Sync to do that.

Logitech G400 mouse wheel only works in one direction

Hi All,
I just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina 15" version and I plugged my almost new Logitech G400 into it and I notice that the scroll wheel on the mouse only seems to work in one direction. I've installed the logitech gaming drivers, but there aren't arent scrolling options in there, so I suspect that it's Mac OS that's to blame here.
By default it was only allowing me to scroll to the top of the page by scrolling the wheel down. I've since reversed this, so that when I scroll down, I move down the page - the problem being if I scroll to far I then have to use the trackpad. As stated, I have tested the mouse as working in a Windows 7 machine, so I suspect this is a problem caused by the OS.
Has anyone experienced this issue and if so, how did you fix it?
Thanks,
Craig

Doing what they did in the video is fine - up to a point. After a while however the clogging gets so bad the method shown won't work anymore. Dampening the cloth helps somewhat, but not for long.
Mine finally got in this condition so I took it to my local Apple Store. The Genius there cleaned it with a surgical swab (the type the nurse wipes your arm with when about to stick a hypodermic needle in it). Did a good job too. The Genius had a supply of about 200 with him and let me have a few.
I have found that this is the only lasting way to clean the roller. But it doesn't stay clean forever of course and also I eventually ran out of the gratis swabs.
Since I ran out of these swabs my mouse has gummed up all over again. In fact it has been like this for so long now that I have abandoned it in favour of the Magic Mouse. I only use it now when booted into Safe Mode or from a Boot CD as the Magic Mouse doesn't work in these situations.
Yes, I know the Magic Mouse is a tad more expensive than a box of surgical swabs, but have you tried going into your local Chemists and asking for these surgical swabs lately?. The idiots won't sell you any because they assume that you are a junky and only want them for injecting yourself! I kid you not.

Problem: Bookmark sync only works in one direction

I have 2 computer, computer A has vista and computer B is a netbook with XP. The problem is that the bookmark sycn only works in one direction.
For example: both my computer has the same book marks (previously sync with X-mark which is now disabled). I decided to do some clean up on computer B. If Y sync computer A, nothing happens, but when I sync computer B, all the cleanup I made has been undone since computer A override all the changes I made to B.
In other words, the changes I made to B can never be applied to A.

When you're doing a "clean-up" like that you need to use '''Reset Sync''' in Tools > Options > Sync - Current Account = Manage Account and use the ''' ''Replace all other devices with this computer's data'' ''' option. See the attached screenshot - use the third option.

Please Help!!

You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

Your code has very little to do with what you are describing.
There is no button with "switch until released" mechanical action. (OK is switch when released, stop is latch when released)
A case structure always "works". Are you saying that it should execute e.g. the true case only once whenever the outer case goes from false to true??
Your inner case goes true more than once per run of the program (whenever the OK goes true). If it should really only work once overall, use the "first call?" primitive. You need to formulate the problem using less ambiguous words.
There is no obvious starting state for the boolean that you read via local variables. How do you ensure that it start with a known value? Does it matter?
You seem to entirely deal with integers, so why are you using floating point representation for the numerics?
What is the purpose of the orange numeric indicator. Is it just a kludge for your logic or does its value mean anything?
Why does your loop not contain any wait?
At this point, you should learn about shift registers. It would eliminate all your local variables.

AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way.

AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way. I see both machines on both airdrop windows. Firewalls on both machines are set exactly the same way, and with Network Browser set to allow. Can send a file from Mac mini to MacBook, but not the other way. Never get a window asking to accept on the Mac mini.
Found no useful documentation on AirDrop anywhere in the whole support site.

Maybe this will work. From an Apple support article.
You can also use the Share button to send files to your neighbors via AirDrop. In a Finder window, select the item you want to share, and then click the Share button in the toolbar. For more information about the Share button, see this help topic:

Since me and my mother moved from iChat to iMessage bêta, screen sharing works only one way. I can share my screen with her but not the reverse. When actually what I would like to do is share her screen. Video works fine both ways.

Screensharing works only one way since we moved from iChat to iMessage bêta. Before that we have never had any problem with screen sharing. We haven't changed anything else, just installed iMessage. What I need to do is share her screen, and the only thing I can do is share my screen...
Thanks for your help.

HI,
On the whole I am finding it very stable. (it presents the same quirks in the same manner each time)
It has some things that are more Feature requests than "Bugs" per se about the way it works that I would like to change.
It can also be difficult to tell exactly what is going on whenyou are hearing about it third hand.
Sounds like you have a plan.

Hotsync only works in one direction

I recently shifted from a PC on XP to an Imac on OSX 10.5.
I have a Tungsten E and have Palm Desktop 4.2.1 installed on the Imac, with Open at Login activated.
Hotsync seems to run well, with no error messages in the log, but on looking at the result, sync'ing of the calendar has only gone in one direction. A new entry in my handheld has transferred to the Imac, but a new entry on the Imac has not appeared on the handheld. This never happened with the PC, in that any new entry was sync'ed, irrespective of where it was entered.
Any suggestions to make this work in both directions will be gratefully received! Thanks, JohnP

This question was solved.
View Solution.

Thanks for the response.
I went to the Hotsync manager and then to Conduit manager as suggested.
Interestingly, while it is set at a default of "Synchronize the files", the "Last Hot Sync" entry was "never" - for all entries, not just calendar.
This despite the fact that when I have connected the handheld and Imac via the USB cable, I get the messages on both that sync'ing is proceeding. And there are no error messages.
It seems that something else is preventing me from sync'ing.
Any further suggestions? John

Mouse Track Ball only working in one direction

Hello,
My Mighty Mouse is 3 months old and now the track ball is only working in one dircetion.
When I move the ball forward I hear the distinct sound and the scroll bar on e.g. Safari moves, but when I reverse there is no movement on the screen.
I don't hear the same sound as when I move the track ball forward.
I have tried to reboot but no improvement.
Have someone seen teh same issue? Is the solution to simply replace the mouse?
Thanks / Christer

Use the instructions in this article to clean the mouse.

ICloud with Numbers: Only Works In One Direction?

Hello,
Trying to get started with iCloud and a problem from the outset;
I use two computers;
iMac OS10.8.5
Macbook Pro OS10.9.2
and Numbers 2.3 on both.
When I upload to my iCloud the files can be read by both computers if I upload from my Macbook, but if uploading from my iMac the Macbook does not seem to see the files within iCloud when 'Open Files' within Numbers. I have the iCloud set up the same on both machines, and iCal seems to work in either direction.
How come? And no, I don't really want to go to Yosemite yet.
Many thanks for your time in answering. Ash.

Facetime works in one direction between 2 iPhone 4's

My son is in Greece - when he gets to a wifi hotspot and tries to initiate a Facetime call to me he gets the message that I'm not available. But if he emails me from a wifi hotspot saying that he's got wifi, I can reach him with Facetime. We've both turned Facetime off & on on our iPhone 4's. He was able to initiate Facetime calls to me last month from Nicaragua. Nothing has changed on either iPhone since then. This glitch is mildly annoying, but not earth shattering since the connection works, albeit in one direction only. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Robert

I take it you havent read the report thats tells you how to hold it the correct way!!!
Looks like he has...
She is right handed and holds the phone with her right hand and does not touch the black strip on the left hand side of the phone.
