HT6337 handoff not working between MBPR and iPhone 6

tried everything

I got a similar problem. Phone calls, SMS work fine, even Handoff works fine one way, from my iPhone (5S) to my MacBook Pro (13" retina late 2012), but not the other way. I literally tried everything, no idea whats wrong.
Edit: all devices run the latest (final) os versions.

Handoff not working between iPad and iPhone

i have installed ios 8 on both my iPhone 5 & iPad 4th generation. They are both on the same wifi network & both have Bluetooth switched on. In settings I have made sure hand off is switched on.
I can make a regular call on my iPad but that's where the continuity seems to end. I don't see a button to open Safari on the lockscreen when it is in use on another device, I cant pass a half written email from one device to another, or see Pages documents etc. I'm at a loss.

I know it can be frustrating sometimes when things aren't working well but I must say I think you are being a bit unfair. At the end of the day Apple are a business not a charity. I'm sure they love being able to survive being the company for rich people.
"I have to BUY A NEW COMPUTER TWO YEARS LATER to use your shiny new "killer" app??"
The two year old computer you have works fine, you don't have to update anything. You survived without the "Killer app" prior to it's release.
Also they have released a brand new operating system that they will give you FREE OF CHARGE that is backwards compatible to the iPhone 4s. Thant's a pretty good effort considering they could quite easily not bother.
Complaining that a phone company is just "another money hungry capitalist maw" and that "EVERYTHING THEY DO is designed to make you keep spending more and more money" seems a bit naïve. It's like complaining that politicians are only interested in getting votes. It's what they do.
I'm not trying to start an online fight. It just seems like a waste of energy getting angry about a tech company. Why not switch to another make of phone. Life's too short to be getting angry about stuff like this.

Group Messages Not Working between Android and iPhone Users on iOS7

Hi there,
I am a former iPhone user. I recently converted both my line and my wife's line from the IPhone 5 to a Motorola X Android phone. We kept our same phone numbers, but we completely switched from Verizon to AT&T. I have noticed that text messaging works perfectly on an individual basis when I correspond with individuals who have the iPhone, but Group Messaging is not working correctly. I am able to send messages to a group and they receive them just fine, but when they respond back to me, I do not receive their responses (as it appears they are going through as iMessages). My wife is having the same issue on her phone. After doing some detective work, I have found that hundreds of other users are having the same issues on their smartphones when they make the switch from an Apple product to an Android phone. There are a variety of "bug fixes" listed on the web, but I have completed all of them and I am still having the same issue. Here is what I have done so far...
*Factory reset both of our phones and removed the SIM cards (since we are with a new phone carrier)
*Changed both of our apple ID passwords
*Removed both of our phone numbers from Apple's database all together
*Unregistered both of our iPhone products with Apple
*Had all of my friends/family switch SMS to "On" in their Settings tab
So now what? I read one post on an Apple forum that said that they are aware of the issue and we can expect a fix in a future iOS update...but when is that going to occur, if at all? It is problems like these that led me to leave Apple all together, and here I am after having left the company, and I am still left high and dry searching for solutions to my problems. Who can help, and how can I remedy the situation?
Anything you can provide to help out would be great.
Thanks.

There are reports of iOS7 altering the settings on iMessage's connection to the iPhone. Verify that each of the iPhone and the Mac is receiving on the "channel" (phone number or email address) on which the other is initiating iMessages.

Continuity not working between iPad and iPhone

I have an iPad Air and iPhone 5 S. Both have been upgraded to iOS 8 and both are on the same wifi network. I do not get any notification of incoming phone calls on my iPad when my iPhone rings. As well there is no option in the wifi settings on my iPad to activate the personal hotspot on my iPhone.

Alright. It's convoluted, but it works.
Settings>iCloud. Sign out on both devices.
sign back in to your apple I'd with your original email address: NOT YOUR @me OR @icloud ADDRESS.
once those are done, go down to settings>FaceTime. Make sure the apple ID signed in is the same Apple ID that you just used. Again, not your @me or @icloud address.
lastly, there should be a toggle in FaceTime settings for both that says "iphone cellular calls". Switch it on. If it's not there, reboot your devices and try again!

Airdrop does not work between Mac and iPhone

Hi,
i have an iMac 27" late 2013 with OSX 10.10.1 on it and an
iPhone 5s with iOS 8.1.1 installed.
Both have WiFi and Bluetooth turned on.
The iPhone can see all other iPhones around me but neither my iPhone nor alle the other iPhones can see my Mac and visa verse.
I could not yet test if the Mac is able to see any other mac in Airdrop because i have no other Mac around.
I already did a PRAM reset but that did not help.
Any suggestions?

I think you have to be running the same OS on those two devices in order for AirDrop to function properly.
Aidrop is pretty much usless unless you are in a need to transfer files between your macbooks and iMacs and vice versa; how many average OS users have two macbooks or two iMacs????
But that's why a great number of Apple users would like to transfer their stuff from their iPads and their iPhones to their Macs every day. I really hope this is on the to-do list by Apple, otherwise it would be shame not to have Airdrop that is cross-platform functional.

Handoff: No connection between iPad and iPhone

Handoff: No connection between iPad and iPhone (IOS 8).

Hi raydela,
I understand your calls aren't being transferred between devices.
Check out the troubleshooting in this article.
Get help using Continuity with iOS 8
If a call doesn't transfer to your other devices, or you don't see the Handoff icons
Make sure that your devices are using iOS 8 or later by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
Check your settings:
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and turn on Handoff.
Go to Settings > Phone and turn off Wi-Fi Calling.
Best Regards,
Nubz

Photos not syncing between Mac and iPhone since update to Photos on Mac.

Ever since I updated to Photos on my Late 2013 macbook pro retina, photos are not syncing between it and my iPhone 6. Both are updated to the most recent software update. Photo stream is on. Does anyone have this problem or know a solution?

You will have to go the the Photos tab in iTunes when you connect the iPhone. Then reset the photo sync options. They were reset with the upgrade to use iCloud by default, but you can change the settings back to sync folders, just like before.

Polarioid pogo printer not working with ipad and iphone

And I can not believe how that truly *****... I am traveling through the states and bought the pogo to print on the road... Only to find out that it does not work with ipad and does not work with iphone... Unless I jailbreak my phone which I don't really want to do...
Apple wants us to go mobile and clouding and all those things, yet, when we do go mobile and try a mobile life style, we are encountering so much technical crap that we loose the will to live...
I could have spend the hundred dollar for the pogo to have pics printed out in every kiosk in the country...
WWhen is Apple going to come to its senses about little life savers like the pogo and bluetooth???????
Is anyone aware of a work around so I can print on the go? And a solution that does not involve a programmers brain because my single braincell is not working while traveling... It needs to be easy!

To cut through all the rage and anger and "knowing" who wanted what, the Pogo has been out for a year or so, well before Mr. Jobs' passing, and Apple did not make any mention of supporting printing on anything other than Airprint compatible printers.
Since Airprint is a Wi-Fi/ethernet thing, Polaroid would have to make a significant redesign to the Pogo. Considering that the first iPhones only supported Bluetooth headsets and Apple didn't provide any indications about increasing Bluetooth support, Polaroid's decision for the Pogo to be Bluetooth was obviously not with iOS devices in mind. This is why initially Polaroid had links on the FAQ to tell Apple to add Bluetooth printing support (so that in effect, asking Apple to pay for the expenses to make the iPhone compatible with the Pogo, rather than Polaroid paying to make the Pogo compatible with iOS.)
I come from a photograpic background. I got the Pogo as soon as it came out. I quite literally was on Polaroid's website every day checking to see when I could order it. Having "instant" sticker prints is wonderful at family picnics with all the kids. While it would be great to be able to get Pogo prints from anyone's iPhone, I stopped holding my breath when Apple announced Airprint, which came well after the Pogo was released. So I took that as the sign that it was probably never going to happen. (I knew that the Pogo wasn't iOS compatible when I bought it so not having compatiblity is not a deal-breaker for me. But, yes, it would be nice.)
I now use a Polaroid Z340 since it's a 14 megapixel camera that prints larger 3x4 Zink prints. Polaroid makes the GL10, which is basically a Pogo using the same printer as the Z340. But it's still Bluetooth only. So while I sympathize with the desire to have a really compact portable printer like the Pogo, iOS compatibility just does not seem to be on the horizon. IMHO, it would be more realistic that Polaroid create an app to do Bluetooth printing. But considering Polaroid's financial issues, I'm not holding my breath

Facetime not working between USA and Thailand

Facetime does not work between my iPhone4 and new iPod Touch via USA and Thailand but works fine locally.

Abpd08-
It sounds like you are having a problem with the WiFi link(s). For each iPad, unplug the WiFi router for a few seconds. Then reset the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. You will need to reconnect the iPad to WiFi. (If both iPads use the same WiFi router, you only need to unplug it once.)

IOS needs the video to be in html5 format, try to convert the video to html5 or download a sample html5 video from web and verify it.
SP 2010 is history SP 2013 is mystery :)

Handoff not working between ios 8 and Yosemite 10.10

I have An iMac late 2012 Processor 2.7, memory *GB 1600 MHz just had it all backed up on an external drive .Installed new Yosemite 10.10 I have an iPhone 5S
my problem is the handoff between them is not working.

First, verify that the Mac is capable of using Handoff. Hold down the option key and select System Information... from the Apple menu. In the System Information window, select Bluetooth from the list on the left. Near the top of the summary of "Hardware, Features, and Settings," you should see this line:
Handoff Supported: Yes
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.
