Hi Suzie, is it another Mac or an iDevice you're trying to airdrop with?


AirDrop system requirements

To share between a Mac and an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you need any of these devices and operating systems:

  • Mac from 2012 or later (excluding the mid-2012 Mac Pro) using OS X Yosemite or later 
  • iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 7 or later


To share between Mac computers, both computers must be one of these models:

  • MacBook Pro introduced in late 2008 or later, excluding the MacBook Pro (17-inch, Late 2008)
  • MacBook Air introduced in late 2010 or later
  • MacBook introduced in late 2008 or later, excluding the white MacBook (Late 2008)
  • iMac introduced in early 2009 or later
  • Mac mini introduced in mid 2010 or later
  • Mac Pro introduced in early 2009 (model with AirPort Extreme card) or mid 2010
  • iMac Pro (all models)
