Hi all. I will answer all the questions below to the best of my knowledge. 1. Making and answering calls should work on any Mac regardless of year they were made. I have a mid 2010 white MacBook and while I was running the beta of Yosemite, I could make and answer phone calls, and this is the case with the general public release.
2. For the last several weeks that I had my 4S, the feature worked just fine. 3. The fact that your iPhone and Mac don't see each other when making a call is true, and it's a bug. Even in the beta this was present. My work around for this was to turn off Wifi on my Mac and iPhone, leave it off for 10-30 seconds, and turn it back on for both devices. When I did this, I was able to make and answer calls just fine. Like I said, this is a bug, and should be reported to Apple right away. I hope all this helps.
