Air drop has suddenly stopped working on el capitan.

This is the Mac I have. Suddenly since the last few months, after IOS 11(i think) my mac doesn't recognise any devices. It was working fine earlier. My iphones settings fine as it works between me and my husbands phone(both iphn8). I have done all trouble shooting on OS too, nothing. Can someone please advise. Thanks

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

Hi Eric,

Thnks for sharing these links. But I had already tried all trouble shooting possible starting from toggling on and off wifi/bt, logging in and out of icloud drive to checking firewall settings. My iphone has no problem, as i can transfer pics to other iphones. Its my Mac that is not reading my iphone. The bluetooth on mac too is working fine as i can pair it with my iphone, I just dont understand why airdrop on my mac is not reading any devices. and why my iphone too cant find mac but can find other devices. Any other fix plsss..
