Same trouble here. It had been working perfectly till a week ago, and when I tried airdrop and pairing bluetooth my i6s and mbp, did not work and doesn't work so far. I did most of thing to solve this with solutions I could find from the internet. All aren't working. I hope someone appears and solve this soon enough. Not sure this is because of the iOS upgrade or el capitan 10.11.3

Hi lyoanh,


i have the same problem here but... I have MBP15" mid 2015 and when i turn on my iPhone 6 Airdrop it detects my MBP15" but my MBP doesn't detect my iPhone 6 and neither other iDevices, and maybe mi iPhone 6 its damaged or something but I've restored it 2 times and nothing. My MBP also detects my Dad and sisters iPhones but not mine. i really need to fix this because i use Airdrop a LOT.

im having the same problem. i only have this problem between mac and iphone/ ipad. mac wont detect my phone/ipad. same goes for phone / ipad, they wont detect the mac. however i can successfully transfer between iphone and ipad without any issue at 0% failure rate.


Im using MBP 15" Mid 2015, iPhone 6s, iPad air 2.


what i have tried :

1. turn on and off bluetooth and wifi

2. set airdrop to everyone

3. reset my router

4. sign in and out from icloud

5. turn on and off icloud drive

6. restart both mac and iphone/ipad.

7. turn off firewall

8. delete the /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist


tried all of the above but still the airdrop wont detect my device. however the handoff is working great. only airdrop is not working.
