There is problem with airdrop iOS 9.1

This is true!! Please report as soon as possible. Airdrop in my Macbook Air with the latest update of El capitan 10.11.1 is not working either.

THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WITH IPHONE 6.

iPhone 6 user. iOS 9.1

El capitan 10.11.1

AirDrop works fine for me.

iPhone 6S, iOS 9.1

MacBook Air (2013), OS X El Capitan 10.11.1

Air drops works strangely. First time IMAC OS X 10.11 have seen iPhone 6s iOS 9.1

Couple minutes later every devices disappeared except iPhone 6+ iOS 9.0.2

Probably the problem is in iOS 9.1

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.1

iPhone 6+, iOS 9.0.2

iMac, Mac os X 10.11

MacBook, Mac is 10.11

me too... plz apple fix this... 😢😢

That is because El Capitan changed the setting from the Mac Airdrop to Contacts only. It needs to be changed to everyone. Make sure both iPhone/Ipad and mac are updated to its latest software too. Mac OX should be 10.11.1 at least. "Go" on the menu and "Airdrop" (at the bottom "allow me to be discovered by" EVERYONE).... Happy days!!🙂🙂 follow this site to change the setting if confused https://www.amsys.co.uk/2015/08/troubleshooting-airdrop-issues-in-os-x-yosemite/

dude, you don't understand, this won't help anyone. (I TRIED IT) and didn't work. .......

I've been chatting with the Senior Advisors for hours yesterday and today. We've been trying everything to solve this problem of mine. My Airdrop of my MBA cannot be searched by other iOS devices. However, other iOS devices are doing the jobs just fine. Therefore, we know something is wrong with the MBA 2013.

We've tried resetting NVRAM, SMC, wireless network, reinstall the OS X, change a different router, setting up a test account, and other things too.

However, none of above worked for me.

At the end, he asked me what kind of third party apps I have, and i gave him a list of the app i have. (I was really hopeless at that time and thought that it was not the problem for sure, however, we have already tried everything, why not one more)

Out of so many apps, he asked me to delete "Dr Cleaner, Memory Clean, and the unarchiver", I did not want to troubleshoot anymore, so i just deleted those and restarted the MBA.

You know what!? IT WORKS! WOW!!🙂😁

Hope this helps other people like me having trouble with the AirDrop.

Good Luck!

I have the problem that I can not find AirDrop anymore on my iPad. And the connection between iPhon and iPad is not working.

and now can't be detected by my macbookpro mid 2015. And also from my imac

what happened???????? Fix pls

Same issue here, iPhone 6 IOS 9.1 to macbook pro 2013 with El Capitan 10.11.1.

(Using a BT home hub 5 for wifi)

Tried deleting nearly all third party apps, and rebooting both devices. Still no luck.

I'm unable to use my AirDrop with OS X El Capitan 10.1.1 on MacBook Pro and iOS 9.1 on iPhone 6S. When there will be a solution?

To those people like RedHotHeart:

Have you checked to make sure your hardware meets the AirDrop requirements specified here?

Use AirDrop to send content from your Mac - Apple Support

In particular, RedHotHeart failed to tell us how new (or old) the MacBook Pro is. It needs to be 2012 or newer as stated in the article.

Purchased September 2013 MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013)
