Hi there melanieonthedrive,


It sounds like you're trying to connect your iPhone and your MacBook Air.


If you're attempting to pair the devices to share content, learn how to do so with AirDrop here: How to use AirDrop on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Alternatively, if you're trying to connect to use Personal Hotspot, use these steps: How to set up a Personal Hotspot on your iPhone or iPad


If you're trying to pair them for another reason, please provide more details about what you're trying to do.


Thanks!
