Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Eric Caron]

Hi Robert and others,

Robert’s suggestion to turn off Screen Curtin and then try hand off worked for 
me! 

So for now hand off problem solved.

Now that is some strange bug. 

Thanks Robert and everyone for sticking with me through this problem solving 
adventure.

I actually find this feature a useful time saver and a way to write 
understandably on the iPhone. 

Great team work.
I wonder if having screen Curtin on causes other issues.

Now I can move on to my next puzzle I have not been able to solve on my own!

Appreciatively,

Eric Caron

Hi,

A while back, I discovered that this feature doesn’t work reliably for me if I 
have screen curtain turned on on the phone.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Brad Snyder]

Sometimes, when the universal clipboard doesn’t perform as it should, I go back 
to the source and re-highlight and do the copy action again.  Usually things 
work as expected the second time.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

When it comes to the universal clipboard, there are some considerations.  I 
don't know the specific time restriction, but there is one and I believe that 
it is less than 30 seconds, may even be 10 or 15.  So, It is best to have the 
iPhone open and ready after copying the text from the Mac.  Also, the Edit item 
in the rotor is not always in the same location, sometimes you need to turn 
quite a few times to find it.  Lastly, if it doesn't work for you, confirm that 
the copy actually took.  That is, for fun, try pasting into a TextEdit document 
on your Mac.  If the text pastes, then it's an issue with the universal 
clipboard, if it does not, then it was an issue with the selection/copy action.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Eric Caron]

Hi Brad and others,

I’m glad I’m not the only one experienced hand off not working.  I was starting 
to think I was alone with this.

I have restarted iPhone and Mac, turned off Hand off and turned on again on 
both devices. I’ve tried selecting on the Mac and pasting on the iPhone in an 
edit field.  Only one time did the Edit option show up in the rotor and it 
didn’t have a paste option.  Most times that option is missing but I have a 
select text option.

So if anyone has some tips and tricks I’d be happy to try them. 

I’ll probably try again to clean out my app switcher , toggle the settings, 
restart the devices, and see if those steps bring it back up again.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Brad Snyder]

I experience that same issue sometimes on my Mac mini that is still running 
High Sierra.  I have learned to cycle VO off and then back on again.  This 
usually fixes most gremlins.

 I think it might have actually been in the app switcher.

 did hear my ipHone say something like hand off error at one point but not sure

It can be Fun solving these puzzles.

Hehehe, similar thought to mine, and I was still typing as you sent. 
Things sound very strange out of my window now as NZ is in total lock down and 
there is no traffic noise.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Petrus Tuerlings]

I know simple things that have worked for me when something should work but 
doesn’t, is to turn it off and back on again. So disable handoff on both 
devices and restart them and then enable handoff again. You probably don’t need 
to restart the devices but it doesn’t do any harm.
This may not help but it’s worth a go.

Hi,

sometimes, a boring old restart does the trick.  When I updated to 10.15.4 on 
my MBP, the Extras Menus weren't working.  Every time I did a VO-m-m, the first 
one went to the main Menubar, and the second went to my Desktop.  I turned VO 
off and on, quit apps, all with no joy.  I logged out then back in and things 
went back to normal.  I was getting ready to complain, but it appears that it 
was an easy fix for me.

   I’ve been having issues with the Universal Clipboard as well. It had worked 
like a charm in the past, but it has been really inconsistent over the last few 
versions of iOS 13. I have all my settings as they should be, but I honestly 
haven’t had the chance to really investigate and troubleshoot the issue.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Eric Caron]

Hi Tim,

I double checked hand off and both are turned on.  Mac and iPhone.  I 
have a funny feeling I’m doing something silly like not pasting correctly or 
not looking for the correct rotor setting.

I was copying from Pages on the Mac and trying to paste the content as a 
Facebook post into a group I incompetently administer.

I’m going to update to iOS 13.4  and try again.

 I think it might have actually been in the app switcher.

 did hear my ipHone say something like hand off error at one point but not sure 
when or where to find that error message.

It can be Fun solving these puzzles.

Re: Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

You need more than just Bluetooth enabled.  You need Hand-off turned on for 
both, Bluetooth on, and both on the same WiFi network of course.  Hand-off is 
in the General pane of System Prefs on the Mac.  It's also in General of the 
Settings app on iOS/iPadOS.

Later...

Hi listers,

Today, for the first time since upgrading I tried to copy text into my 
Mac clipboard and paste with my iPhone. 

I’ve done this a few times in the past and found it helpful.

I have bluetooth on both Mac and iPhone turned on.

I copy the text on the Mac.  When I enter a text field on the iPhone I used to 
get a edit option with paste.  Now it doesn’t show up.  

Any ideas how to trouble shoot this useful function?

Cut and paste from Mac to iphone

[Eric Caron]

Hi listers,

Today, for the first time since upgrading I tried to copy text into my 
Mac clipboard and paste with my iPhone. 

I’ve done this a few times in the past and found it helpful.

I have bluetooth on both Mac and iPhone turned on.

I copy the text on the Mac.  When I enter a text field on the iPhone I used to 
get a edit option with paste.  Now it doesn’t show up.  

Any ideas how to trouble shoot this useful function?

Thanks,
