iMac late 2014 to iPad 4 airdrop

[HaruAoki]

Hello,

I have a late 2014 5k iMac (running 10.11.1) and a iPad 4 (running IOS 9.1), trying to use airdrop to send data from one to the other. Sometimes when using airdrop one or the other devises will not show up when using airdrop, at the moment I can't see to get either one to show up in airdrop.

I'ts finding my laptop (macbook air) fine at the moment tho I was having the same issue with it last week.

I was wondering if Airdrop is buggy or if this may be either the internet I'm using and or the iPad is to old for this to work.

Has anyone else have this issue?

Thank you for your time and I hope you have a great day.

AirDrop for many is a mess

That's sad, airdrop concept is really cool and have been helpful so far (when it works) It would be nice if Apple could find out why it does not work and how to fix it!

Recently been working better for me. There really isn't anything someone can do to fix it either. Which is even more frustrating. It's so finicky.
