Hackmodford Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Forget handoff and continuity... my bluetooth adapter is just plain not recognized anymore. Does anyone else have this issue? Are there known working bluetooth 4.0 adapters for Yosemite?

Hackmodford Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 nevermind, must have been a finicky connection. Is there a way to get handoff to work with it?

charliebounce Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 nevermind, must have been a finicky connection. Is there a way to get handoff to work with it? I have the same Bluetooth Adapter and it doesn't seem to be working. Is yours plugged into a USB3.0 or 2.0?

Hackmodford Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 I actually discovered that usb 3 stopped working. I updated the GenericUSBXHCI kext and it works now. So now that bluetooth is back on, it says handoff is not supported Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301572-iogear-bluetooth-no-longer-works/#findComment-2070810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hackmodford Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 was usb 3 working for you in mavericks? because you need dsdt edits + the kext Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301572-iogear-bluetooth-no-longer-works/#findComment-2070967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliebounce Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Yes it is working in all versions of Mavericks. What DSDT edits do I need to do?

Hackmodford Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 I'm not sure. Where you using the kext before in mavericks? and I'm sorry I can't find where I got the updated version. I know it was reply # 546 on this forum. It was the same kext, just resigned for yosemite.

charliebounce Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I have a quad boot system with Ubuntu, Windows 8.1, Mavericks & Yosemite. Bluetooth works perfectly in all except Yosemite. I have no idea why. I have tried to use the USB2.0 port instead with the same result.

dudu_qc Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 @charliebounce: Do you use Clover in UEFI? I have the same board and my Bluetooth work well in a usb2 port. I use UEFI with default options in Bios except for : my ram, XMP profile, EHCI hand-off enable and boot option on UEFI first Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301572-iogear-bluetooth-no-longer-works/#findComment-2073050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
