Its amazing how sentimental you feel towards the people who solve your problem on these forums when you've been painfully searching for a solution for days lol! Thanks again Nick

you guys are very welcome. Again solution is to create a clean bootable Yosemite disk drive can use a usb thumb drive see my prior posts on links to do this. I took it it further erased my hard drive and started fresh to get Yosemite working correctly. It does get old following 20 plus suggestions on here after you are 100% sure you have followed every protocol as told to by Tier 2 support

IF YOU R FACING THE IOS 8 CONTINUITY PROBLEM ON MACBOOK /IMAC ..JUST GO THROUGH MAKE BOOTABLE USB AND ERASE THE MACINTOSH AND INSTAL YOSEMITE U GET ALL THE FEATURES ... GOOD BYEEE

I have an additional detail to add here. My issue is solved.

-equipment mid-2014 base 15" rMBP and iPhone 5S. Wireless router Asus RT-AC87U

-clean installs of both 10.10 and iOS 8.1. 10.10 from the bootable drive and 8.1 from DFU mode.

-logging out of all iCloud and logging back in in iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime all using the same email. I had used my @me email at one point by the FaceTime on iP5S showed as 3rd party email log in that Apple likes. So, all logged in under the 3rd party email.

-all settings in MBP and iP5S for handoff and continuity

-FINALLY ******wifi band******* this was my ultimate issue. It has already been identified that Continuity doesn't work when PC is on ethernet and iPhone is on Wifi even if on the same router...well, ALSO LOOK OUT FOR MIXED ENVIRONMENT WIFI. I have my router set up so that 2.4 and 5 ghz broadcast the same SSID and the devices switch back and forth based on best signal. This is a problem for continuity. When I forced both devices on the same band, everything was seamless. Problem seems to be that rMBP can pick up and hold onto 5 ghz from my desk whereas iP5S can only get 2.4 at the same location. Watch out for what band you're on! Application handoff works okay across multi band environments, phone handoffs, no. at least not consistently.

Hopefully future updates can address this because MIMO is defiantly the future, which is here now

aw man..i had so much hope for mine to work when i saw your post.. but unfortunately mine still doesn't work..sigh

Where are you at in the process? what's your equipment? what have you done so far?

After several chats with support, everything related to continuity is working.

In the last call, he asked me to sign off and sign in the iCloud and FaceTime. In addition he checked the time in the mac/iphone - it was set to manual - i changed to automatic in both.

Then I tried a FaceTime call before a phone call. It worked.

Then I tried the phone call. It worked well both making and receiving calls.

Thats it! Make sure time is set automatically. Thanks for sharing Nelson.

it still doesn't work =(

have you just tried wifi don't plug in your cable..

yes

have you got this right

make sure on your iPhone is on caller id which is your phone number
