Hi All

Is anyone running El Capitan (10.11.6) with iOS 11? If so, are there any syncing issues between iCloud services (i.e. notes, reminders, photos etc.)? I'm aware there were issues with iCloud Safari tabs syncing but this has been resolved with Safari 11.

Secondly, has anyone pinned a note on iOS 11 and has this reflected on notes on your Mac? Even though El Capitan does not have the feature to pin, I'm intrigued to know whether a note can still be pinned via the iPhone and that note appear at the top on the Mac (without the pin icon).


Thanks!

Actually iCloud tabs has not been resolved with Safari 11 on El Capitan as far as I am aware.
Unfortunetly the fix was only provided for Safari 11 in Sierra & High Sierra.

Notes & Reminders sync and I assume photos do too but have not checked.
However the new features introduced in Notes will not show up on El Capitan. I.e. A table will show as a blank box with no text. Scanned documents will show up as box with the words "scanned document" and pinned tabs do not show at the top of the list on El Capitan.

Photos and sketches embedded in the note sync successfully.
[doublepost=1506602927][/doublepost]I have a related question to add.

Does Bookmarks and Reading list sync both ways between iOS 11 and Safari 11 in El Capitan?
I know Icloud tabs don't work but bookmarks and reading list work both ways with iOS 11 and Safari 10.1.2 on El Capitan.
