    Hello hanmacjkt,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that your main problem is that your AirDrop does not work between your iPhone and Macbook. I also noticed that your Bluetooth seems to be also up. Because the air drop can be affected by the problems of Bluetooth, lets take a look at this one first.

    Take a look at this article for a few steps to troubleshoot your Bluetooth.

  • AirDrop does not work between Mac mini end of 2014 and 6 s iPhone more

    Hello!

    I'm here for the first time. A little more last year, I bought a Mac mini end of 2014 with Core i5 clocked at 2.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM and 5400 RPM HARD drive. I replaced the HDD for an SSD, Samsung EVO 850 250 GB, to be correct. I also have an iPhone 6 Plus and does not AirDrop between my devices. They discover each other. Update both OS X and iOS on a regular basis, so that's not the problem. Check on this issue and finding a solution a have met this Airdrop is not my Mac mini 2012 and I have a few questions:

    I checked that TRIM Enabler Coulon, but later on my Mac I searched this Samsung EVO can't GARNISH. What it means? Download and install TRIM Enabler would be unnecessary, because the problem isn't here? Everything is fine with the Bluetooth, WiFi, my 6s more connects to the other MacBook Pro Retina early 2015, as the new MacBook 12 "iPads and iPhones, too. Please help me, thank you in advance.

    10.10.4 and later Apple does not allow that you caraa select TRIM and third part SSD. See:

    http://osxdaily.com/2015/10/29/use-trimforce-trim-SSD-Mac-OS-x/

    Can yo test to see if AirDrop works among other devices?

    like the iPhone with another device iOS or Mac or Mac with another Mac or iOS device?

  • AirDrop does not...

    As much as I bought my iPhone and my Macbook pro 13 (2015) 6 I always had problems with parachuting. It was not just to work! I tried all the solutions I found on google, and here on apple discussions and nothing seems to work! Continuity works fine, but when I want to share something through drop between my mac and iphone, they just do not find the other. I have the bluetooth on, they are connected on the same wifi, I have new updates on mac and iphone. Some time previously, I tried and it worked, but just for like a day. I tried to switch the wifi routers and it does not work even on one or the other. I don't know what to do. Any help? Thank you

    Hello Vlado.n,

    Thank you for asking your question here in Apple Support communities. I understand how it is important to have the AirDrop works between the Mac and your iPhone. Since we know that continuity is not working properly, we want to check the settings specific to the release.

    This article will go through all the troubleshooting steps to ensure AirDrop works between two devices: Use AirDrop to send the contents of your Mac.

    The key to make this work is to make sure that you don't have any third-party antivirus or firewall on. If you turn them off, you will need to restart your Mac to test it again. In addition, ensure that the settings are correct on both devices, such as sharing with contacts or not. If this setting is enabled, it may be better to turn it off and try again. Don't forget that the discovery by the settings is correct.

    Thanks again for raising your question here, in the communities of Support from Apple. Have a great day.

    My 5 Iphone Home button does not work after update final IOS version of 10.

    The home button works on the first push to wake the phone but it will not open the phone the second button.

    I activated the assist button, which does not work either. But what I discover is if I open device for assistance then touch and lock screen click on the button home will work once to open the phone. If I open any app I can't close it unless I go through the same routine.

    You attempted to restart your phone?

    You can do so by holding the sleep/wake button and the Home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears

I use the function do not disturb I SLEEP every night to block the incoming notifications apps and emails (including work with the application Outlook email). I leave the phone won't cut not so I can make sure my alarm wakes me up the morning. But it does not work. I still wake up emails and notifications of the app. It worked on my old iPhone with iOS 6, 8, 9 or even 10.

    I see a lot of old messages and questions about DND not work, but they were more specific to older phones and ' iOS.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Any ideas for help?

    I had "only when locked" checked and not 'always' in settings do not disturb.

    Troubleshooting iOS 10 tips: Touch ID does not work

    Some users have reported that a previously happy Touch ID installation stopped working when they made the update to iOS 10. It is a pain, but rescuable - you will probably need erase your fingerprints and re-enter.

    First, however, try something simpler: go to settings > Touch ID & password, enter your password, then press the buttons next to pay Apple and iTunes and App Store so that they become white. Turn off your iPhone and turn it off again, then go back to settings and turn the two knobs back to green (you will need to enter your password Apple ID).

    Who fixed the problem?  I haven my Aff!

    If not, go through the fingerprint stored in settings > Touch ID & password - press each of them in turn - then erase fingerprints. Then go back and press Add A digital footprint and put back them in. It's a bit complicated, but it should fix the problem.

    I did all that, but the problem could not be solved.

    Try the following steps:

    1. go in the settings, press button ID & password, enter your password. Then turn off iTunes and App Store. Restart your iPhone or iPad. Return to Touch ID and password in the settings and re - turn on iTunes and App Store. Press Add a fingerprint to add another print.

    2 remove and re-add fingerprints: settings > Touch ID & password > enter your device code > scroll to find fingerprints fingerprints. Press the fingerprint, that you want to remove, and then press DELETE.

    3. restart your iPhone by pressing and hold the Sleep/Wake and home.
