Hello smart people Catalina to Ventura loaded 2017 iMac. Airdrop has Disappeared.

Hello smart people, I migrated Catalina OS from a late 2009 iMac onto a Ventura loaded 2017 iMac. Airdrop has Disappeared. Please help. Very much appreciated.


Sending data, eg photo, from an iPhone, the iPhone picks up the iMac device but flashes "waiting". Forever. 

iMac 27″

You're welcome. Open Finder > Settings… > Sidebar and enable AirDrop. AirDrop has to be selected in the Finder Sidebar when you want to Airdrop something to your iMac.
