Airdrop Not Working How do I fix the Airdrop on my MacBook Air(2017). I can send files to other devices through airdrop, but I'm unable to receive them. My Mac is up-to-date and runs macOS Catalina. Before I updated my Mac, it didn't show up on my iPhone's airdrop menu. After updating it did. But despite this, I am unable to send the files from my iPhone to my Mac. How can I resolve this?

Please look in your Downloads folder or you can always use Spotlight (keyboard shortcut Command + Spacebar) to find the file. In Spotlight, type the files name or you can use it as an app launcher too.
