Q: How do you configure Mac with multiple iCloud accounts to allow Continuity with iPhone

I have a work Mac which has my work iCloud account configured. I have added my personal iCloud account to the Mac's Internet Accounts page, but for some reason I can't get it to do any Continuity with my iPhone on my personal iCloud account.

Is there some way of configuring the Mac to allow this to happen?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

The Mac and the iPhone need to be signed in with the same Apple ID.

I am signed in to iCloud on both devices. That's not really that helpful, but thanks anyway.

On both devices primary iCloud accounts needs to be the same. Otherwise it won't work.
