If you noticed any problems involving communication between Macs and other devices of Apple recently, you are not alone. Users have reported a number of problems with the Continuitywhich were raised by some of them in a popular thread on the company’s support forums.
With more than 85 “me too” tags and more than 15 responses, the topic has several reports from users who noticed the flaws mainly following the latest updates of the company’s operating systems, which were released last week.
Apparently, there is no known pattern as to which continuity features work or fail for each user, but the Universal Controlo Handoff it’s at Universal Clipboard seem to be among the champions of complaints.
Other users also report problems involving the AirDropo Mac unlock from Apple Watch and even the communication between iPhone and Apple TV. Some of these were even confirmed by the MacMagazine.
An interesting detail is that the problems seem to be more related to the Mac than to other Apple devices, as some users have reported the operation of continuity features between iPads and iPhones, at the same time that the failure happens when using one of them with the computer. .
As for possible solutions, many pointed out that actions like restarting the affected devices or turning off and on the Handoff solved the problem, but always on a temporary basis. After some time, the affected resources would “break” once more.
Problems introduced by updates?
Although the many cases have arisen a week following the release of the latest versions of Apple’s operating systems, it is not possible to categorically state that they are the real cause for their emergence — at least not all of them.
In some cases, for example, some features continued to work normally for certain users for several days following system updates — and only then stopped. That is, there is also the possibility that it is a problem that can be fixed remotely.
Anyway, even if the problems were not really caused by the updates, nothing prevents them from aggravating the situation.
