Split View also stopped working for me in 10.11.1. When you long press on the maximize button nothing happens.

Have you tried both methods to start split view? Both methods work for me on 10.11.1. I do not have an external monitor so that might make a difference.

The method I use is to open the first app and make it full screen using the green button. Then I open the second app, swipe up for mission control and move second app's window to the the same full screen image as the first one.

It appears to me the long green button approach requires that both apps be already open on the same desktop. I hold the green button until the first app expands to half of the screen. Then I click on the header for the second app and it fills the other half.

Nothing happen when i long press the maximize button, if i open 2 apps in full screen mode and drag and drop the app in another desktop it shows in slpit screen, but why not long press on maximize button?

OK, Split View wasn't working because I had disabled it by unchecking System Preferences > Mission Control > Displays have separate Spaces.
