Cannot pair iPhone 12 Pro Max to new iMac via bluetooth. Need help

Cannot pair iPhone 12 Pro Max to new iMac via bluetooth. Error message "pairing unsuccessful "iMac" is not supported"

iPhone model 12 Pro Max, ios version 15.3.1

iMac macOS Monterey version 12.2.1

Everything is up to date. Pairing with other bluetooth devices is successful from both devices, but not with each other. Unable to use AirDrop.

Any advice?

iMac 21.5″, OS X 10.11

I'm having the same problem, and have the most recent updates on both my iPhone 11 and new MacBook Pro 16. I cannot get them to pair, get the same error message, and can't do Airdrop.
