Re: [iPad] Using Handoff

 

Excellent!. On iCloud settings it shows my ID, but based on your advice I selected it anyway, asked to add password, did that for both,

It works, thanks Jim as I typed the first paragraph on the air and this on the 5s

I kept struggling with this over and over again, until it finally clicked in my head. They really need to make it a touch more obvious.

Okay: Bluetooth is on, and iCloud is … "on"?
Are both devices *logged in* to iCloud?

Re: [iPad] Re: Now what--update error

 

Same thing happened to me, Julie!  I did as you did and went through the recovery. Luckily, I had backed up my iPad prior to attempting the upgrade to 8.0.  Good news is that when it was done, the upgrade to 8.0 was complete.  I was afraid that I would have to attempt it again, but no, it wasn't necessary.

Good luck!

Well, I unplugged and replugged it in and iTunes found it and said it was in recovery mode and had to be restored. I unplugged it and tried doing a hard reboot but the iPad continued to show iTunes in the center with a picture of a usb cable going to it, so I plugged it back in and went ahead and restored it. It is trying to put in the backup now. Hopefully it will go smoothly.

Are you talking Continuity (calls) or handoff (safari, etc carrying over to another device)

I know less than zero about how such things work, but Handoff only works for me with LTE enabled.  I have to switch it off in order to connect to an AT&T Microcell that I use to boost my cellular signal.  Bottom line is a trade off that I have to make.
