Hey there Torof,.

Welcome to Apple Support communities.

The article below provides a lot of information and tips that can help you solve the problem of sending and reception of items between your iPhone and your MacBook Pro troubleshooting 6 using airdrop.

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 must have Personal Hotspot device 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 privacy & security 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.

So long.

  • My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro

    My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro. Can I use capital letters but only if I click on change and it's annoying. When I click on the passage icon shift comes at the top right of my screen to show its on but when I click on the lock button nothing happens as it used to glow green when I clicked it. Before someone says go to the system preferences and go to the modifier keys and restore them or make sure caps lock shift is on lock shift, I've tried that already, I looked it upward and found nothing similar. Help ASAP would be appreciated because it is really annoying

    Hello Gracepullan1,

    I understand that shift key of your MacBook Pro does not respond as before. Fortunately the steps below can help to restore the functionality of the SHIFT key on your Mac.

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. On the view menu, choose the speech.
    3. Click on the text to Speech tab.
    4. If "Text Speak selected when you press the button" is enabled, the key or combination of keys set to read the text cannot be used for other purposes, or used for typing text - click on set the key and replace it with a less commonly used key combination (try using the modifier such as SHIFT keys, command) Option and control). Or disable the option "Read the selected text when the key is pressed".
    5. Click the accessibility pane or universal access in system preferences, and then click the keyboard tab.
    6. Make sure the slow keys is off. With slow keys on, you must press a key for a longer period of time so he can be recognized.
    7. In the accessibility pane or universal access, click the mouse and make sure mouse keys is turned off. With the active mouse buttons, you cannot use the numeric keypad to enter numbers - instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to activate the MouseKeys to five presses down option, you can disable this option to avoid accidentally activate it.) If the mouse keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard without the numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Impossible to type while mouse keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    8. If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard do not work as expected, see Mac OS x: how to change the behavior of the function keys.
    9. If the problem persists, use the keyboard Viewer to help isolate the problem:
      1. Click the component language & text (Mac OS X v10.6) or international (Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier) in system preferences.
      2. Click on the tab Input Sources (or tab Menu entry under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier version).
      3. Click on the keyboard and the characters 'On' box Viewer checkbox to select (click on the viewer of keyboard "On" checkbox under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
      4. In the entry menu (flag), choose Show Keyboard Viewer.

  • If the keyboard is connected and detected by OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application) and try to type something using the keys that failed before to see if they highlight in the keyboard Viewer.
  • Start up from the Mac OS X installation disc, choose Terminal from the utilities menu and test buttons that did not previously.  If the keys work while started from the install disc, the keyboard works correctly.  How to solve a problem of software allows to isolate the software problem that may be causing the keys to not answer.
  • One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond

  • HP Officejet 6700 Premium suddenly does not connect to my Macbook Pro more

    Hey everybody,

    I got my HP Officejet for over a year and it has always worked perfectly. It has a stable wifi connection. Yesterday, all of a sudden the printer did not respond, so I asked my brother, who is the type of an It'er and removed the printer from the "Print & Scan" system preferences. Now, however, it will not be added more. As I said, it doesn't have a stable wifi connection, and I can see the presence of the printer when I click on the plus to add a printer, but then, if I want to add it, it says "cannot communicate with the printer at this time." I rebooted the computer laptop and printer and even left stop for the night, but it does not work. Nobody knows anything else to try?

    Thank you very much in advance

    Hi Elizaanne,

    I understand that you are having problems with HP Officejet 6700 Premium does not connect to your Macbook Pro.

    The router must sometimes be recycled.  I unplug the router, turn off the printer, shut down the computer.

    Turn on router wait 5 min and turn on the printer and the computer.

    Check the printer if the Wifi is STRONG.

    Open Preferences system, Print and or print and scan pane. If you see the printer listed
    Click Printer button remove. It will ask for confirmation to delete printer.
    Click on add it or + button, select the MFP Hello not Fax. Adding that should update the drivers.

    If the Wifi of the printer is not fixed, you will need to reconfigure.

    1. Press the power button to turn on the printer.
  • OfficeJet 8500 a 910 scan does not work with my Macbook Pro Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    OfficeJet 8500 a 910 scan does not work with my Macbook Pro Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  I tried to reload of apple and HP.  My drivers and software are up to date.  I tried to scan from preview, Capture and print browser.

    It worked finally.

    Why doesn't HP have updated the drivers for a Macbook Pro 10.6.8 Snow Leopard?  I couldn't find one for 10.5 or 10.6 Leopard.  I tried everything I could find. I found a note on the edge of Disussion which suggested someone try a driver for another HP printer may be similar.  I found if I used the full program for Macbook Pro 10.6 Leopard I could scan.  The fax appeared to be installed via blue tooth.  I have not faxed anything, but it has been tested during the installation of the program.  Complete program of the HP I can't print.  I loaded via Apple an another whick of printer HP Officejet 8500 A910 allows me to print.  It is the only way that I could make use of my HP printer, scanner and fax.  Crazy, but I think it works and I can put some scans and, hopefully, fax to my Macbook Pro.  I appreciate the help.  Please encourage the HP programs and drivers for my Macbook Pro Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

  • Bluetooth between iPhone and Macbook Pro 6sPlus does not connect

    Hello

    Trying to get MacID works on my iPhone 6sPlus.

    My iPhone is running 9.3 (Beta)

    My Macbook Pro (late June 2013) is El Capitan 10.11.3 running

    I got a Fitbit watch and it connects and syncs with my phone without problem.

    Every time I try to pair the two devices, I get security code 6 digit flashing on my screen for a few seconds, then dies and my phone shows the connection has failed and will not pair.

    I tried to remove the fitbit to my phone and once again pairing and the same thing happens (I have no other BT devices to test).  BT-sharing on my mac is also activated.

    Any ideas?

    See the following instructions for MacID. Note that Bluetooth must be turned on in both devices but the 'twinning' they do is done in the soft, not in the settings > Bluetooth.

  • AirDrop does not and the bluetooth does not connect to the macbook pro

    Hi, I have an iphone6s and a macbook pro, release used to work before, but now it is not. I think it's probably because I can not connect my macbook on my iphone via bluetooth which is something that probably dump uses.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? He used to work before.

    My iphone 6s is 9.3.2.

    My macbook is on 10.11.5 (15F34).

    I tried to restart my mac and reset my Iphone. I also tried to delete the file com.apple.bluetooth.plist.

    I also tried to disable the bluetooth and turn back on for both devices.

    My airdrop is already set to "everyone".

    Sometimes, it is not even discover my mac on my iphone even if I discover my iphone on my mac. When I try to pair, this is for me the pair prompt on my iphone and I click and it goes to 'Connected' and then back to "not connected".

    And that's fine if I can't connect my iphone to my mac via bluetooth, I want just the parachuting of work.
