Q: AirDrop Not Working
Hello guys,
I would like to use AirDrop but when I open the ControlCentre it won't show the AirDrop button. Why? Also if I want to share a photo, there is no AirDrop button.
I have a iPhone 4S, is it too old to use AirDrop? And also my Macbook Pro Mid 2012 won't show the AirDrop button.
Does anyone know why?

The 4S is too old for AirDop. You need a 5 or later: Use AirDrop to wirelessly share content - Apple Support
Do you have other Apple devices? You MacBook Pro is new enough to share with other Macs as well as iOS devices - see here: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203106
AirDrop will only show up if there is another device nearby that supports it.
