Should Handoff and Continuity work with iOS 8 and Yosemite Public Beta 3?

I have an iPad Air with the latest iOS 8 update installed and a new iMac 27" with Yosemite Public Beta 3 installed and I can't get Handoff to work as described on either device.  Handoff is enabled in system preferences on the iMac and in settings on the iPad.  It will not display the bouncing icon for the respective app (i.e Safari or Mail) or they will not appear on the lock screen of the iPad.  Also, I cannot seem to get the Bluetooth LE to auto pair the iPad and the iMac.  Any help or insight with these issues would be greatly appreciated.  Maybe i'll have to wait  for the release of Yosemite to the public for everything to work.  But what is the Beta for?
Thanks

I have the same setup, but on 2013 MBP w/Retina, same problem. No evidence of handoff, even though it is enabled on all devices and I've followed all instructions I can find online. Very disappointed, as I was most excited about this. I know its still beta, but you'd think on a 3rd public beta, when it worked in previous releases that it'd be working...

  • I need help streamlining my email accounts. Can Apple Mail and iCloud work with comcast and gmail?

    I have been using Apple Mail to manage four email accounts. I want to consolidate the four email accounts: icloud, gmail, and 2 comcast accounts. And I want them to sync across my devices, iMac 2009, running Mavericks, ipad and iphone (both running IOS7). I have been using comcast for my work account(s), but they do not sync between devices.
    If possible, I would like to keep using Apple Mail as my main email client. I do not mind trashing some of the email accounts (which is probably a choice I need to make).
    In light of upgrading to Mavericks and ios7 what is the latest thinking on this issue?

    iCloud will only deliver mail from your iCloud account.  What you can do is set up email forwarding with your other accounts to forward incoming email to your iCloud address, then tell all your contacts to send email to your iCloud address.  (Comcast accounts are POP3 rather than IMAP so you won't miss these accounts.  I set up forwarding from Comcast to iCloud a long time ago.)

    You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5.  Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box.

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • Please help. At work we have netgear and tplink. Since I updated my mini iPad and iPhone 4S with ios 7 and wifi drops all the time.

    Please help. At work we have netgear and tplink. Since I updated my mini iPad and iPhone 4S with ios 7wifi drops all the time.  What is the problem?

    Try this  - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • 4s Hotspot tethering only works with USB and BT but not with wifi

    Hi,
    XP sp3 - iPhone 4s with ios 5.0.1 - on Three one plan
    Tethering with wifi works to a friends Samsung phone, wifi on the pc confirmed working with the apple store wifi, tethering with USB and BT works with good connection speeds on my laptop but when i try to tether with wifi it connects to the laptop at 54mbps and all appears well, even claims to have received a small amount of data packets, but no data comes to any browser. The iPhone reports 1 connection to the hotspot and stays connected with a non-pulsing blue bar after the first minute.
    In the PC i have tried this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-the-order-of-network-protocol -bindings
    I've deleted my firewall (zone alarm) completely and turned off windows firewall to go naked surfing for a second even though they don't cause a problem with USB tethering, makes no difference
    I've deleted the network connection numerous times
    "repaired" connection
    dissabled and enabled the wifi
    turned off the wireless with a hardware switch and on again
    disabled bluetooth
    rebooted many times
    reinstalled itunes (latest)
    loads more things i can't remember
    This is causing me a nightmare. I've been through everything i can find online, been to the Apple store genius bar (genius appeared to have sub zero knowledge / interest as it involved a MS machine), been to a Three shop (legally not allowed to touch my PC apparently) and been to a Sony shop (laptop make, not their fault if my iphone doesn't work). All very frustrating.
    Please help if you can! Any suggestion will be tried unless it involves sledge hammers or lakes, and only then for a few more days at most.

    Turned off bluetooth on phone, turned off hotspot and on again, phone asked if i wanted to turn on bluetooth or go with USB and wifi only, said usb/wifi only. Still nothing. Rebooted PC and iphone. Turned on hotspot, pc seemlessly connects to network, still no data comes.
    One odd thing is zone alarm asks me to "select a security zone for the wireless network at ip address: *******.0" every time and doesn't seem to remember the setting over sessions. When i get the status of the connection the ip address is *****.2 and default gateway is same ********.1 Not sure if that's anything.
    Also getting a javascript error about an undefinded component (trustcheckermozilla) since i updated zonealarm but as i said even completely uninstalling zonealarm made no difference. I'll update firefox as well but tried with IE and still no data.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
    The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
    My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

  • PDF files on mobile Devices with iOS and/or Android

    I would like to use PDF files (with embedded JS Code) on Smartphones and Tablets with iOS and/or Android.
    Are there Apps out there that not only display the contents (the "graphics") of the PDF file correctly
    but also execute the embedded JS Code properly on such devices?
    And if so, which Versions will be supported for
         Adobe Pro?
         iOS?
         Android?
    Are there freeware or shareware Versions available?

    Since the mobile devices, smart phones, tablets, eReaders, do not support JavaScript the app you use will need to provide the JavaScript support. Not all apps provide this support for JavaScript. The apps that support JavaScript only support a limited number of features so you will need to test the PDFs, the device and the app.
    The version of Acrobat that runs on your computer will not work on your mobile device since the CPU's, Central Processing Unit, machine code is very different since the devices have different CPUs and the storage space to hold the code on the mobile device is much less than your desktop or laptop.
    Adobe Mobile Reader does support some JavaScript but not date formatting and not document level JavaScript.
    Expert PDF for the iPxx supports the largest amount of JS but still does not support all the possible JS that could be used in a form.
