iCloud/continuity does not work with my Mac or iPhone now
I was really holding this problem for a very long time now because it's really a "first world problem", but in the past year continuity and iCloud were either non-existent or not working properly on my iPhone 5 s (32 GB) and mid-2014 13 "(2,6 GHz/8 Go/128 SSD) retina MacBook Pro (and now it just feels like I use old devices when I'm not."
They work on the latest versions of iOS and Mac OS El Capitan, are on the same WiFi network at home or at school, have all two Bluetooth-enabled, and are both signed in my Apple ID iCloud
Last year when I had the time, I reset the settings, wiped and restored the iPhone, etc, to try to get continuity works again. Nothing seems to work, and so that the whole process has been somewhat of a breeze on the release of these two operating systems, for some reason any he didn't work on my devices. I'm really ideas at this stage on how I can get the work continuity (the alternative at this moment is iCloud tabs in Safari).
With iCloud, the issues are not as complex, but the photo stream is not working properly. If I take pictures on my iPhone that do they not appear in a few hours on my Mac, and if I add a bunch of pictures in pictures on the Mac, appear at all on the iPhone. I have all iCloud settings enabled for Photos and it's still buggy.
I use Apple products since kindergarten and I consider myself to be a loyal customer. It would be a shame if I can't find a way to solve what should be a simple problem.
Thank you for your help in advance.
I guess you have tried to sign your iCloud (on all devices) account, signing in? If you tried and it did not work, and this problem is ongoing for you for a year, my next suggestion would be to call Apple Support (link at the bottom of the page) or make an appointment with an employee at the Genius Bar in an Apple store.

I installed the new iCloud (v5.2.1.69) and found that it does not work with Outlook 2016 (16.0.6965.2053). There is no button "Options"... "to"Mail, Contacts, calendars and tasks"(see photo). In addition, the iCloud Outlook add-in does not display in Outlook. I tried to reinstall the Office 365 and iCloud, but nothing has changed.

I tried to remove all of the Apple software, and then reinstall iCloud without result. I've deleted and reinstalled MS Office and then tried to reinstall iCloud - once again no luck.
