Unbelievable but true: I have been looking everywhere for MONTHS and stumbled upon this: http://matthieufleitz.fr/votre-mac-na-pas-pu-communiquer-avec-votre-apple-watch/


It just so happens that my login password had an "à" in it, just like in the video. I did change it and… voilà, it works. All this after having reset everything, deactivated iCloud and all that useless jazz. Hope it works for you, and I do hope Apple fixes this, this is beyond embarrassing!

Hello,


it's a macOS password problem. It's an issue of macOS Sierra (at the moment) when users have some special characters within their system password.


Try to modify your password with something simple (like only letters and digits only) and you will see that it resolve your problem.


I explain this problem (in french) here : http://matthieufleitz.fr/votre-mac-na-pas-pu-communiquer-avec-votre-apple-watch/


Hope this help.
