How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

The following quotation is from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/continuity/
The link shows a picture of the Notification. Below it says there is "nothing to set up" but I believe that you need to have FaceTime activated (signed in) on both devices as there is a setting on iPhone/iPad in Settings > FaceTime where you turn "iPhone Cellular Calls" on/off.
Sometimes when your iPhone rings, it’s not where you are. Maybe it’s charging in another room. Or it’s buried in your backpack. But your Mac or iPad is sitting right there. Now you can make and receive phone calls on those devices as long as your iPhone running iOS 8 is on the same Wi-Fi network. Incoming calls show the caller’s name, number, and profile picture. Just click or swipe the notification to answer, ignore, or respond with a quick message. And making a phone call from your iPad or Mac is just as easy. Simply tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. It all works with your existing iPhone number, so there’s nothing to set up.

  • How can I connect my iphone to my computer with the new upgrades? My mac (old) cannot support the new itunes and my phone can't connect to it.

    I have a macbook that I purchased in 2007 with operating system Mac OS X Version 10.5.8. I recently did the new software upgrade on my iPhone and now my iPhone and my computer cannot connect. I tried downloading the newest iTunes but it is not supported by my software. What can I do now? (Other than buy a new computer).

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • How do you make a call from your computer

    I have an iPhone 6 running 8.02 and Yosemite 10.10.
    I my computer which is an iMac (late 2012) won't allow me to receive or make calls.  I tried pairing my phone via bluetooth but that Doesn't work - tells me to check the network (i am on the correct network).  Is the iMac too old to allow this to happen?
    Thanks

    Create the slideshow either in iPHoto or in iDVD itself. Pick one of the old themes like World, Travel, Windowbox, Scrapbook or Pinboard that have no dropzone and drag a blank, black image file menu's window. That will give you a black menu. Change the text color to whatever you'd like for the play button for the slideshow. If you want the slideshow to start immediately when you put the disk in the DVD player click on the Map button in the bottom toolbar, last one on the left in the middle. In the next window drag the slideshow icon into the box at the far left. Then use the File->Save as Disk Image and complete the project. You can then open the disk image and play it with DVD Player to preview before committing to disk. If it's what you want, burn it with Disk Utility as the slowest speed possible for maximum compatibility with the many DVD players on the market.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How do you make sure internet is switched off with the new iso7. In iso6 you pressed the centre button twice and it allowed you to close down open tabs I want to do the same....or go back to is06

    How do you close down the internet in ISO7

    You do the same thing, but now your open apps are displayed in a window view. Swipe left/right to find the app you want to stop, then swipe the app up to remove it. By the way, this doesn't turn off the internet. It only removes the app from memory that may be accessing the internet.

  • How do you authorize your computer with the new itunes version?

    Just got a MacBook Pro. I have songs that were previously purchased on my iphone that I could not download because it said my computer was not authorized. Looked at my authorizations and it said 3 computers were authorized but not this one. I deauthorized all of them and now I do not know how to authorize this computer. All of the support is outdated because itunes has a new version and there are no menus for store or advanced settings.

    Open iTunes...  
    If you're using iTunes 11 click on the box icon in the top-left corner to see the " Show Menu Bar " 
    and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

  • How  do you put songs on your ipod with the new itunes?

    How  do you put songs on your ipod with the new itunes?

    Do you mean remove them from the iPod or transfer them back to your computer? You can't transfer photo's back to the computer with iTunes. To retrieve photos from an iPod try:
    iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
    CopyPodPhoto Windows only
    iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
    To remove individual photos from an iPod you delete or remove the photo from the folder that you linked to when you set the preference "synch photos from" and update the iPod. For example, if the iPod is getting the pictures from the folder "My Pictures," delete or remove them from My Pictures.

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.

  • Hello how can i transfer photo for my old computer to the new one

    hello how can i transfer photo for my old computer to the new one

    If your computers are connected to the same network, you can turn on Sharing to allow you to see the contents of one from the other and do transfers. If there is no network, you can use "target disk mode" explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13842
    Otherwise, you will need to use external storage such as a USB flash drive.

  • How do you update playlists on your iPod with the new iTunes?

    With the new iTunes, I can't seem to be able to update playlists on my iPhone device when plugging it in. I can add songs to the playlist and can add songs to my device. However after adding songs to a playlist, I can not update that playlist on my device with the new iTunes. You used to be able to just drag a playlist to the device and update it, but you no longer can. Can someone please tell how to go about updating playlists on devices using the new iTunes.
