My iPhone and iPad are not visible to my Macbook Pro in parachuting, but they are visible to the other... How can I solve this problem?

How can I fix?  iPhone and iPad are visible to each other in parachute drop but they does not see my Macbook Pro.

Greetings brsm1990,

Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

I understand that your iOS devices can see each other with the help of parachuting, but your Mac does not see them. To begin troubleshooting, I suggest you read the information in the following article.

Use AirDrop to send the contents of your Mac - Apple Support

Tips for sending items

If you do not see the recipient in the AirDrop window or sheet:

  • Make sure that the two devices have on AirDrop and are less than 30 feet (9 meters) on the other.
  • If you send to an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch:
    • Your Mac must be a 2012 model or newer with OS X Yosemite or later.
    • The iOS device must use iOS 7 or later and have Personal Hotspot disabled in settings > cellular.
  • If you send a Mac:
    • If the receiver Mac uses OS X Mavericks, Cougar or Lion, then open a window AirDrop: choose go > AirDrop in the menu in the Finder bar.
    • If the receiver Mac is a 2012 model or, click "Don't see you looking?" in the drop window or the sharing of the sending of the Mac spreadsheet. Then click on "Search for an older Mac."
    • Know if the Mac has "block all incoming connections" enabled in the security and privacy preferences. A Mac does not receive items using AirDrop if this setting is enabled.
  • If AirDrop on the receiving device is set up to receive points of contacts only, make sure that the two devices are connected to iCloud. Also make sure the associated e-mail address or phone number to your identifier Apple is in the Contacts application on the receiving device.

Release system requirements

Send items to an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, or to receive these devices, you need a 2012 model or later Mac with OS X Yosemite or later version, except the Mac Pro (mid-2012).

To send items to another Mac, you must:

  • MacBook Pro (Late 2008) or later, excluding the MacBook Pro (17 inch, late 2008)
  • MacBook Air (late 2010) or later version
  • MacBook (Late 2008) or later, excluding the white MacBook (Late 2008)
  • iMac (early 2009) or later version
  • Mac Mini (mid-2010) or later version
  • Mac Pro (early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card or mid-2010)

Learn how to identify your model of MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac minior Mac Pro.

I know you said that your Mac does not see your iOS devices, but your iOS devices sees the Mac?

Best!
