Airdrop stopped working between iPhone 12 mini and MBP

Airdrop in my Mac does not work with the iPhone 12 mini. It works with a 2nd gen iPad Pro, Iphone XR and with several other different Apple devices. Used to work fine with my previous iPhone (6S)


MBP: 13", mid 2012, Catalina 10.15.7

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Hello el_rodo,


Thank you for posting on Apple Support Communities.


If you are having trouble with AirDrop on your devices try doing this:


  1. Make sure your devices are updated.
  2. Turn off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on both
  3. Restart both devices.
  4. Turn Bluetooth and Wi-Fi back on, on both.


This should fix it. Take a look at this if you'd like to learn more. Use AirDrop on your Mac & How to use AirDrop on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Good luck.
