Just a quick update to say that the problem appears to have rectified itself.  
The watch now connects to my Wi-Fi with the iPhone turned off.

Hi Anna,

The watch is running watch OS4.2 and the iPhone is running iOS 11.2.

Both devices are talking to each other and data is synchronised between them.

The watch can send and receive e-mail and message and the calendar has the data

However, if I turn Bluetooth off on the iPhone the watch loses all connectivity

Siri says that it has no connection for example when not connected to the

I have tried the following to solve the problem.

Firstly, disabling Bluetooth on the iPhone and getting it to forget the

Bluetooth.  The watch works fine until I again disable Bluetooth.

I then removed the watch from my Cloud account and signed out on the iPhone too.

Signing back and adding the watch again did not solve the problem.

It looks as though the wireless settings are not being copied from the iPhone 
to the watch for some reason.

Secondly what apps support Andoff between the watch and iPhone?

Hi Anna,

Still no luck I'm afraid.  Here's what I have tried so far.

I am using an Apple series2 Watch.  I am using the watch with an iPhone7.

The watch is running watch OS4.2 and the iPhone is running iOS 11.2.

Both devices are talking to each other and data is synchronised between them.

The watch can send and receive e-mail and message and the calendar has the data 
retrieved from my iCloud account.

However, if I turn Bluetooth off on the iPhone the watch loses all connectivity 
with the outside world.

Siri says that it has no connection for example when not connected to the 
iPhone.

I have tried the following to solve the problem.

Firstly, disabling Bluetooth on the iPhone and getting it to forget the 
wireless network.  I then reconnected to my 2.4GHz network and enabled 
Bluetooth.  The watch works fine until I again disable Bluetooth.

I then removed the watch from my Cloud account and signed out on the iPhone too.

Signing back and adding the watch again did not solve the problem.

It looks as though the wireless settings are not being copied from the iPhone 
to the watch for some reason.  

Secondly what apps support Andoff between the watch and iPhone?

Thanks.

Malcolm

Hello Anna,

I have turned off the Apple Watch then asked my iPhone to forget all its

reconnected my iPhone with the 2Ghz wireless network then reenabled Bluetooth.

 

Finally I restarted the Apple Watch.

 

The watch will happily talk to my iPhone but when I turn the iPhone's Bluetooth 
on the watch will not connect with the outside world.

 

Any thoughts from you and others welcome.

Hi,

 

Your watch should be able to connect with any Wi-Fi network that your phone has 
connected to. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi, and maybe wait a 
little while before turning off the watch, and it should work. If you just set 
up the phone, maybe information is still being copied from the phone, including 
the Wi-Fi network info.

 

Best,

Anna

You have to leave Bluetooth on the telephone on to run you watch with the 
Wi-Fi. It connects to the Wi-Fi through your telephone. I also have series 2, 
my phone is a 7+ and I’m running the same software you are. As long as your

RE: Apple series two watch and wireless connectivity.

2018-01-12 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Hi Anna,

Still no luck I'm afraid.  Here's what I have tried so far.

I am using an Apple series2 Watch.  I am using the watch with an iPhone7.

The watch is running watch OS4.2 and the iPhone is running iOS 11.2.

Both devices are talking to each other and data is synchronised between them.

The watch can send and receive e-mail and message and the calendar has the data 
retrieved from my iCloud account.

However, if I turn Bluetooth off on the iPhone the watch loses all connectivity 
with the outside world.

Siri says that it has no connection for example when not connected to the 
iPhone.

I have tried the following to solve the problem.

Firstly, disabling Bluetooth on the iPhone and getting it to forget the 
wireless network.  I then reconnected to my 2.4GHz network and enabled 
Bluetooth.  The watch works fine until I again disable Bluetooth.

I then removed the watch from my Cloud account and signed out on the iPhone too.

Signing back and adding the watch again did not solve the problem.

It looks as though the wireless settings are not being copied from the iPhone 
to the watch for some reason.  

Secondly what apps support Andoff between the watch and iPhone?

Thanks.

Malcolm

Re: Apple series two watch and wireless connectivity.

Hi Malcolm,

I would suggest letting the devices connect for a little while. It may take a 
few minutes for the Wi-Fi info on the phone to be copied to the watch.

Best,
Anna

RE: Apple series two watch and wireless connectivity.

2018-01-11 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Hello Anna,

Still no luck with getting the Apple Watch to connect wirelessly.

I have turned off the Apple Watch then asked my iPhone to forget all its 
wireless networks.  I then turned off Bluetooth on the iPhone.  I then 
reconnected my iPhone with the 2Ghz wireless network then reenabled Bluetooth.

Finally I restarted the Apple Watch.

The watch will happily talk to my iPhone but when I turn the iPhone's Bluetooth 
on the watch will not connect with the outside world.

Any thoughts from you and others welcome.

Thanks.

Malcolm

Hi,

Your watch should be able to connect with any Wi-Fi network that your phone has 
connected to. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi, and maybe wait a 
little while before turning off the watch, and it should work. If you just set 
up the phone, maybe information is still being copied from the phone, including 
the Wi-Fi network info.

Apple series two watch and wireless connectivity.

2018-01-10 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Hello,

I have just received an Apple series2 watch.

I have it up and running and configured as I like it.

However, there is one thing that I cannot get to work.

Am I right in understanding that if my iPhone is turned off the watch will 
connect to my wireless network?

I cannot get it to connect, as soon as I power off my iPhone the watch loses 
its connectivity to the outside world.

I have powered the watch off, asked my iPhone to forget its wireless networks 
then turned Bluetooth off on the iPhone.

I then rejoined my 2GHz network and then turned Bluetooth on.  I then restarted 
the watch.  It is connected to my iPhone.

But again if I turn the iPhone’s Bluetooth off the watch is not connected to 
the outside world.

What else can I do to sort it out?

Thanks.

Sent from my iPhone
