I can’t airdrop anything to my wifes phone even though she appears as available. When she tries to airdrop something to me, I don’t come up on her phone as available. I have tried restarting the phone, turning Bluetooth/Wifi on and off and several other methods but still not working. My phone is updated to the newest software and still not able to get it to work. Anyone else having these issues?
iPhone 13 Pro Max
Mine had the same problem.
It looks like the contacts on the phone do not match with contacts of the iCloude
Try
Me to upgraded my wife from 11 pro max to 13 pro max now I can’t air drop her from my 12 pro max
factory reset both phones
even tried beta software on both phones and have same issue I think it’a software issue look iPhone.
Hard to believe this is an "Apple Recommended" solution. I just did this, and now my iMac Pro doesn't even appear as an AirDrop destination on my iPhone 13 Pro Max. AND I can't connect the two via Bluetooth; I get an error message on my phone saying that my iMac Pro "is not supported". What kind of crap is that? I wasn't having any problems until I upgraded to Monterey —which I had to do because Safari stopped working, meaning I've replaced one connection problem with another.
This kind of crap is why I originally switched to the Mac.
Apple is a normal brand now… nothin special. Been with them since IPhone 3… considering Samsung… the problems are just too mucch. I don’t see them working them. They think they are still the GOD of the industry. It was good.. seems it’s just burnout now.
iPhone 13pro and M1 MacBook Pro. Both show up on the other's Airdrop but I am unable to transfer anything using Airdrop. Tried resetting, restarting, rebooting. Nothing works. Very frustrated and disappointed knowing that so many others having the same problems. There was no problem when I was using AirDrop on older devices (had iPhone 6+ and MacBook Air 2012. Something not quite right. Does anyone have a fix?
This solution worked for me perfectly no need to reset anything. Thank you
This was the best solution for us. Working well now.
Nothing works for me, and this is something I tend to use a lot. Any new ideas? Is Apple going to sort it out?
Unfortunately, nothing from my end. Issue is still persistent and annoying as ****. You'd expect this would have been solved from last year.. embarrassing.
Thank you, this worked.
I had the same issue with my iPhone 13 pro and my partner’s iPhone 11 Pro. The problem seems to be with the contacts themselves as when you choose the contact picture for airdrop the option keeps on “waiting” forever. However, if you choose the airdrop sharing option, then under “other people”, the phone itself is there and airdrop works with it. This confirms there’s no problem with the radios as such. What I did, after having tried everything, I went to the accounts option under settings/contacts and removed all my contacts from the iPhone itself by toggling off the option. After all contacts were removed from the iPhone I toggled it back on. This fixed the problem for me.
