Hey beppe_se,

Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the Mac does not see the iOS device in AirDrop. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
When you select AirDrop, OS X looks for other Mac computers and devices that are nearby that also use AirDrop. If you don't see someone in the AirDrop window, here are some things to check.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario

Thank you Mario,

I finally decide to contact tech support about the problem, and it comes out that my computer, even though it show the Airdrop option in my finder window, does not support it!

well, that it that so, thank you for your help though.

ciao - Beppe
