Copy and paste stopped working between iOS and macOS

Inexplicably, copy (from iOS 27) and paste (to MacOS Tahoe) recently stopped working. I use this function with some regularity and have not changed any settings.


I restarted bluetooth on both, which had no effect. Both devices are on the same network.


I work around it for now, by sending an email to myself from iOS.


Anyone know what the problem could be?

Try this: Go to Settings/General/Airplay & Continuity and make sure Handoff is on. If it is, turn it off, then on again. Do the same in Mac Settings.
