AirDrop not finding

I installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 5, and have been trying to use the AirDrop feature with my Mac Mini (OS X 10.8.5). They are on the same wifi signal, wifi and bluetooth is on for both. I have AirDrop set for Everyone on the iPhone. Everything seems to be set up correctly but the mac mini and iPhone don't find each other.


Anyone have any ideas why? I've been using a photo transfer app, but was looking forward to AirDrop when iOS 7 came out. I can't seem to make it work though.


Thanks

Mac mini (Late 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), Also iPhone 5, iOS 7

Reading all the articles it appears tha AirDrop is only between tow Mac or between two iOS devices. Not between an iOPS device and a Mac.
