Q: Problems with AirDrop.

I have a strange problem. Iphone 6+ and MBP (late 2012). I CAN transfer files from Mac to Iphone, it is ok. But the Iphone DOESN'T see mac. At the same time. Mac sees iPhone, iPhone doesn't see mac. Why could it be? ios 8.1.3 and OS X Yosemite.

Is Bluetooth turned on on both your iPhone and your Mac? Are you using the same iCloud account on both devices?

The strange thing is, that it is working in one direction only. It is working, but just from MBP to phone.
