Airdrop not Working older macbook pro 2011

Hi, it is frustrating to see all the responses to this question...they all assume that my macbook actually has the "Allow me to be discovered by" link at the bottom. Not so on my 2011 macbook. Any suggestions? Here is a screenshot

That MacBook Pro does not meet the requirements because it does not have the newer hardware required.


You need MacBook Pro 2012 or later and Yosemite or later:
