I have attempted to use the continuity camera after updating both MacBook Pro and iPhone X to the latest operating systems. When I try to use it the iPhone icon is greyed out. both are on same wifi and bluetooth is connected.
MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, macOS Mojave (10.14)
Hey there, friends!
Found a fix that worked for me...
For those of you who are tech-savvy, I just signed out of iCloud and then back into it (on my Mac). This is a slightly arduous process because it requires you to download your iCloud information to your Mac... It took a total of about 15 minutes, but now everything is working just fine (as it relates to Continuity Camera)!
- Go to System preferences
- Select iCloud (3rd row down, first one on the left)
-Select "Sign Out"
-I would recommend selecting "Keep a Copy"
-It will download a copy of your iCloud content not stored on your Mac.
-After the process has finished and it has signed you out (it may prompt you for a few more things in the process), RESTART your Mac. Just a normal restart is fine.
-Once your Mac starts back up again, sign back into iCloud through System Preferences -> iCloud -> Sign in
All should work after that!
Thanks Confirmed, this works for me too.
Annoying is that by logging out of iCloud, and logging in again, it has to reload everything again.
Hi Frank,
Had the same problem and realized that I had Pages App ON MY PHONE and that was what was hindering the Continuity Camera from working on my Mac.
In Settings...
>Pages
>Cellular Data
Turn it on!
And it works on the Mac seamlessly!
Go Apple!
