Q: Message text missing during Handoff

iPhone 6+ with iOS 8.1

Late 2013 rMBP with Yosemite

When I start to create a message on my iPhone, the Handoff indicator shows up in my dock and when I click it, I'm taken to the person I was composing a message to but the text I started to enter on my iPhone doesn't show up. Has any one else had this issue with the Messages app? Notes, Safari, etc., all work alright for Handoff except for this.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10), iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 8.1

It's definitely frustrating as that was the feature I was most looking forward to. I can't even get it to work between my iPad and my iPhone.

I have the same issue. All other apps work ok and sync content fine.

Further, I once had the problem that bluetooth was totally stuck on my macbook pro after it woke up from sleep. My bluetooth mouse and keyboard could not connect and handoff did not work either. After restarting the mac, handoff, the mouse and keyboard worked fine.
