Q: Handoff and/or Continuity stopped working after installing El Capitan? Any ideas on how I can get these features working again?

I'm having a really hard time getting continuity features to work in El Capitan. I've tried restarting, turning bluetooth on and off, turning handoff on and off in settings/system prefs, signing in and out of iCloud, etc. nothing has worked. Does anybody know how to fix this issue? I'm using an early 2015 MacBook pro on Mac OS X 10.11 and and iPhone 5s on iOS 9.0.2.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

I have the same issue. Booting back into Yosemite all is fine. I have spent hours on this without resolution so far.

It worked for 1 day. I have tried everything suggested including.... Going to /var/db/CoreDuet and deleting any file with the name CoreDuet. followed by a restart on the machine.
No Luck either.

The latest update to 10.11.2 did not solve the issue for me.
Now, even booting back into Yosemite does not restore it.
