Bluetooth Issue: MacBook

RUST( i )K

MacBook Pro stil acting up.

So, now running "faux" fresh install simultaneously to test if hardware or software..........

Issue at moment addressing: BLUETOOTH

Any tips on if MacBook bluetooth enabled but not showing for Air Drop anywhere?

I have it enabled on MacBook and starting to think this is hardware issue.

Already on 2nd reason board.

Yes, on a brand new MacBook Pro..............

Any suggestions on getting this bluetooth working or problem solve what's up with it?

Is Bluetooth not working at all, or just Air Drop? I have noticed that Air Drop can be quite temperamental, especially from MacBook -> iOS Device (the other way around usually works immediately for me).

Sometimes the 'Mac' wont show as a Airdrop destination on iOS unless a Finder window is open.
Open it from Go->Airdrop.
(It's almost the same if the iPad's screen is turned off, no way to Airdrop to it and it won't show).

At the bottom there is a line it's 'discovery mode'.(Ie. who is able to see that Airdrop is on).
Mine is set to 'everyone' since it's only discoverable when the an Airdrop windows is open in the Finder.

Bluetooth and Airdrop have been an issue on my MBP and all my iPhones. Mrs Monzopro tried to send me a file a few days ago, constantly failed despite the fact she was sitting next to me.

I am having issues with bluetooth controllers connecting for Ableton as well.

I guess I should have been clearer or more accurate.

I guess "test container" is better than faux version......I figured most would know what I meant.
