I am talking about the phone transfer and sms sending/receiving. My Mac Pro would do both of those without WiFi or Bluetooth 4.0. I did not have an airport card installed but did have a Bluetooth 2.0 card.
I just got the SMS and call hand off features working, even though we don't have a supported BT4 module. It's only the other features that need it. I followed these steps:
- Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
- Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
- On your iPhone:
- Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
- Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
- Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
