HT5887 Did iOS 8 break AirDrop for anyone else?

AirDrop worked just fine for me in iOS 7 -- my iPhone and iPad were both set to "Contacts Only" and I could easily share content between them. Since upgrading to iOS 8 they only see each other when AirDrop is set to "Everyone," but I can still see friends' phones when on "Contacts Only." The same thing is happening now in Yosemite, where I can only share things with myself if AirDrop is set to "Everyone." All three devices are signed into iCloud.
Does anyone know how to get AirDrop working again like it did in iOS 7? Today's 8.1 update did not resolve the issue for me.

Other people have reported issues with the keyboard in iOS 8. I had some problems and I reset all settings and that fixed most of the issues - everywhere but in this forum. But the keyboard problems in this forum are a as a result of the crappy software that this forum runs on.
First reset 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. See if that does any good.
If that made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

  • Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?

    Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?
    I have a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 duo MacMini from 2010, and I just updated to the latest OSX (10.9.4 (13E28)) and now bluetooth audio is broken. 
    I can pair my device (LG Tone+) to the mac, but no audio will play though it.  I've rebooted the machine, reconnected the device after the update, restarted the browser, all with no results.
    Typically, when I connect to the system I will get audio acknowledgements through the headset, "Power On" "Battery High" "Connected"
    I still get those audio queues through the device.  However when I open up a video on YouTube, or attempt to stream music on Spotify...nothing happens.
    I've plugged wired headphones into the system and that works just fine.  When I connect my Bluetooth headset, the audio to the wired headphones disconnects, so it seems like everything is behaving normally, except that no audio plays through the bluetooth headset.
    Any ideas on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated.  So, what do we think?

    Try resetting the SMC.

    Hi,
    I believe the problem is "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.verizon.com." which is still not working for you.
    Have you tried another browser? or Firefox in safe mode http://www.wikihow.com/Start-Firefox-in-Safe-Mode

    Either import your Songs into a new clean library, or rebuild your existing library - it would appear your current library is corrupt.

  • Does adding a Goggle AdSense crash for anyone else?

    I started looking into Google AdSense today and at first it was 50/50 whether iWeb would add an AdSense object or would crash... now it's 100%. Does adding a Google AdSense routinely crash for anyone else? Is this a know issue? is there a workaround?
    I've tried:
    - restarting my mac
    - deleting the test web pages and starting over
    - deleting the site and ALL pages, just to start fresh
    - adding via the icon at the bottom of the screen, and adding via the menu item
    Thanks,

    I am an activist when it comes to rip-offs and I intend to set up a group to pressure the Ausralian government to legislate to make all computer software producers to make all new software compatible with all old software AT NO COST to the user.
    I thought about that myself, but when it comes to Windows XP. It is peculiar that software companies get away with "selling" software that suddenly stops working properly. The problem with XP is of course an environmental one as well. There is a huge number of fully functional PCs that suddenly are no longer supported by Microsoft, and that are not powerful enough to take newer supported MS operating systems. What MS basically recommends people is to throw them away with a horrible cost for our environment.

  • Is the IOS 7.0.2 music app deleting albums for anyone else when they try to play them?

    Ever since updating to iOS 7.0.2 when I play music on my iPhone 5 it's skips through the songs and deletes the album/artists selected.
    I have tried plugging into iTunes, deleting all music and transferring it all back but after a few days the problem came back
    Is anyone else experiencing this and or found a fix?

    Yep - deleting anything that's not purchased on itunes when I try to play it.
    This is terrible, and especially a pain when they're things like limited edition albums where tracks are only available direct, so going for iTunes match is not gonna help.
    Only other variable to consider is that I installed the "Groove" app to try out a few weeks ago, and played music with it twice. Highly doubt this is related, however non-iTunes purchased tmusic tracks also show up there and now *crash the phone* when I try to play them so it's something system-wide.

  • Is iOS 7 making email font size inconsistent for anyone else?

    Since I installed iOS 7 to my iPhone 5, my incoming emails are varying wildly in font size. Some of them are normal and some are tiny. If I enlarge the text size in settings, the normal emails and all my text messages take on a huge font size.
    Is anyone else having this problem, and what do I do?
    Thanks. 

    Yes and it's annoying.

  • Exchange email will not work after IOS 5.1 update. Anyone else having same problem. Its been three days now I cannot get mail.

    Exchange Email not working on Iphone 4S is anyone else having the same problem and is there a fix for this?

    @ w3nitro
    I'm having the same issues, except only one of my Exchange accounts took a dive after upgrading to iOS 5.1.  My Gmail account (set up as Exchange) works flawlessly but my native Exchange account (work e-mail) stopped working after the update.
    Post update to 5.1:  (work Exchange account) I could view my inbox and view individuals emails in the inbox, but I was unable to send any emails.  Mail started asking for my password after the update (for the affected Exchange account) but once entered, it failed to verify.
    I completley removed the Exchange account and rentered all the account settings but again, failure to verify any information.  I was hoping my password might have changed but it did not.  Also, maybe the IT guy at the office (not very bright) changed some settings but the only difference is the new iOS update.
    And while playing with the iPhone trying to make it work again, I noticed something really weird.  Old emails (2-3 weeks) from multiple email accounts to include the inop Exchange account started showing up again on the pull down notification menu.  I would clear these out of the notificaion menu but they always kept reapearing; very strange. 

  • Teamviewer changing lists as navigate through pages-probl for anyone else?

    Hi All,
    We're using R/3 4.7, ESS 50.4 and MSS 6.1.20.  After much correspondence with SAP we have discovered that the teamviewer does not behave the way we thought/want it to.
    Basically as the teamviewer is applied on a page basis, each page gets their own teamviewer.  In our teamviewer we have 3 distinct lists of employees.  So if on one page you were looking at list 2 and you navigate to a different page, we expected to be on the same list.  Unfortunately, if the teamviewer on the new page was previsouly looking at a different list, say list 3, the employees for list 3 would be displayed.
    This is not what we want.  In essence we want the teamviewer to work off the MY Staff workset, so that when you navigate between pages, the teamviewer will remain on the same employee in the same list.  This to me is the most user friendly way and the way that makes the most sense. 
    If a manager wanted to view data for a single employee from a number of pages, (s)he could quite possibly have to reset the teamviewer on each page and select the employee again.  This is totally unacceptable..
    Has anyone else been bothered by this?  Did anyone come up with a solution?  I can't believe that this issue has not arisen before.  I would be interested to hear similar stories.
    Many Thanks,
    Liz.

    After much correspondence with sap, this is infact the expected behaviour on the team viewer

  • Searching Photos is not finding text in the description.  Does it work for anyone else?

    I am attempting to live with the forced upgrade to Photos from iPhoto.
    Generally, the features are an improvement.  But there are some things that just are not working.
    I had an iPhoto library with excess of 32000 photos, in 3200 events.
    Now events are non existent.  I cannot create new ones... just choose from preexisting ones.
    But I digress.  My photos did have searchable text associated with them.  Either in the title (from the event name), in the description, or from keywords.
    As things are now, only keywords seem to be searchable. (via the Search block in the upper right)
    Is anyone else having this problem?  Why?
    I don't want to have to make a "Smart Album" every time I need to find something.

    I can enter text and it finds words in Titles, Filenames and Descriptions for me.
    How long since you updated? Perhaps it's not finished indexing?

  • Has the lastest security update caused problems for anyone else?

    Since the latest security update things have been a little weird with my MBP. Within 5 hours of udating the computer there were two kernal panics. At least I think the second one was a kernal panic. I had closed the lid and it wouldnt sleep or turn back on and it had no response to the power button or any keys so I eventually pulled the battery. Then on restart it acted as if recovering from a panic.
    Since then I have had other problems such as long waking time from sleep, dim screen after restarts, and itunes opening for no reason at all. After the latest restart things seem more 'normal.'
    Has anyone else had this problem? If it continues, what should I do?

    And here was I thinking it was my own imagination! After installing that annoying update, my MBP has not been the same.
    I also had two kernal panics exactly as you have described.
    My MBP seems to me to be extremely sluggish compared to what it was, and I am seriously condsidering reinstalling OS x and not installing that update.
    At one point I decided to run disk check and it said I needed to repair my hard drive, something about the actual size and recorded size being different, so I repaired that last night so I will have to see how that goes.
    I am very careful with my comp so i know that it is nothing I did that could cause thes problems.
    And of course to add another problem to the list, My battery life is nothing like it used to be. I am a college student and up until i installed that update i could easily go 4 hours in lecs using the laptop to take notes, but now after about half an hour the battery indicator says i have an hour left. It is very annoying!
