I recently upgraded from an iPhone6 to a iPhone8plus and now I can't AirDrop from my MacBook Air to the iPhone8 like I did with the iPhone6. How do I do it?
Any help would be much appreciated.
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14
You updated from a very old iPhone to a somewhat newer iPhone. You haven’t told us about your Mac’s age.
You need a 2012 Mac or later using OS X Yosemite or later (except a 2012 MacBook Pro, which would also not work).
Here's the details of my MacBook Air.
macOS High Sierra version 10.13.6
MacBook Air 13inch, Early 2015
Processor 1.6 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Startup Disk Macintosh HD
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB
Thank you Sir,
You're a legend.
Problem solved.
Many thanks.

See "If you can't see the other device in AirDrop" here.
You're welcome.
Enjoy your Apple gear.
I certainly will, thanks.
BTW, if I go into Settings on the iPhone8 and remove the iPhone6, will that cause any dramas?

Remove the iPhone 6 from your devices if you no longer have it.
Will do, thanks.
