Q: How to connect Apple Watch with MacBook Air with MAC OS Sierra

Hi Guys,

 

I have a Apple Watch with WatchOS version 2.2.2. (13V604) and a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2011) with MacOS Sierra v10.12 compilation.

 

How can I pair both devices? By Bluetooth? Unfortunately is not possible because in the Bluetooth preferences screen didn't appear Apple Watch like a device.

You guys can help me please? I want to use the feature that unlock my MacBook Air with my Apple Watch.

Apple Watch, watchOS 2.2.2

    That's because the process does not involve Bluetooth pairing.
