 This is what I get for not reading the threads about Air Drop. 
 
 I’m trying to send a file from my 2012 MBP to my iPhone. Both have the most 
 recent software updates. They cannot talk to each other via bluetooth though, 
 or so they say. 
 
 Given this fact, and given that the phone is a 5S and that’s the reason the 
 bluetooth doesn’t work, can Air Drop work? 
 
 I’ve tried it and I see a phone but I’m pretty sure it’s my 5 for work as it 
 has a different name than my personal 5S. 
 
 I’ve tried doing Air Drop from the menu of a file and see no “send” button. 
 I’ve tried it from the finder screen also with no luck.

Re: Air drop

2014-12-03 Thread Alex Hall
The bluetooth on the 5S will support Airdrop with no problem. On the phone, is 
Airdrop set to everyone? That sometimes fixes things. To actually select your 
phone on the Mac, remember that you'll need to find the table of devices, 
interact, go to the row for the device, route the mouse there with vo-cmd-f5, 
then click (or vo-shift-space).

 Given this fact, and given that the phone is a 5S and that’s the reason the

 I’ve tried it and I see a phone but I’m pretty sure it’s my 5 for work as it

 I’ve tried doing Air Drop from the menu of a file and see no “send” button.

Thanks for the instructions on the Mac side. From the phone to Mac it works 
fine but not so much the other way.

 The bluetooth on the 5S will support Airdrop with no problem. On the phone, 
 is Airdrop set to everyone? That sometimes fixes things. To actually select 
 your phone on the Mac, remember that you'll need to find the table of 
 devices, interact, go to the row for the device, route the mouse there with 
 vo-cmd-f5, then click (or vo-shift-space).

Re: air drop

2012-03-18 Thread Jürgen Fleger
Hi,

you aren't doing something wrong. Drag and Drop by using VO + comma and period 
doesn't work reliably because the source and target window should be visible on 
screen. As a blind user you can't know wether it is visible. So either you use 
drag and drop manually as it was necessary in Snow Leopard or you must be lucky 
and both windows are visible on screen.

In my opinion Air Drop should work by using copy and paste on the keyboard. 
Let's send an e-mail to 
accessibil...@apple.com
and ask for this feature in a next version of VoiceOver.

All the best

Re: air drop

2012-03-18 Thread Robert Carter
Hi Caitlyn,

airdrop has to be running on both Macs. Your husband would need to accept the 
file request on his Mac for the operation to be completed. You can't control 
both sides of the exchange from a single Mac as far as I know.

Re: air drop

2012-03-18 Thread Paul Erkens
To add to this, airdrop has to be running means, that the airdrop window should 
be visible on the recipients computer as well. I used to think that I could 
airdrop a file to my wife, and that she would get a popup, no matter what she 
would be doing. That's not the case. I need to tell her I have a file ready, 
she needs to open her airdrop window, I then go to the file and hit vo comma, I 
then go into my own airdrop window using the sidebar, I then find her name in 
my airdrop window, and then I drop the file on her name. She then gets a 
message asking to accept, and then my file goes into her downloads folder. That 
works, although I last needed to use it some time ago, so I hope I am not 
forgetting a step.

Re: air drop

2012-03-18 Thread Lewis Alexander
if I may make an observation here,

air drop isn't necessarily needed here. Air drop is an added feature.

a way to go about this from a more straight forward approach is to enable 
sharing of your husband's mac and yours on the home network through Sharing 
within system preferences. turn on file sharing and enable read write 
permissions for yourself and the other computer. close this window.

open a finder window and you should see another mac appear within the finder 
sidebar. you can either send directly to the public folder or direct to the 
drive and access directories on the other system. please note that you will 
need to do two things. firstly ensure the other machine has file sharing 
enabled and read write permissions available for logged in users and secondly 
you connect to the system with your username and password. this should then 
grant permission to connect as a guest to host connection. you should then have 
connection to the other machine to send and receive data.

Re: air drop

2012-03-17 Thread Caitlyn Furness
I was trying to play around with this last night and still can't get it to work.

I'm trying to send a file to my husband's mac which is on our home network.  
His wifi is definitely on and so is mine.  First I went to where the file I 
wanted to airdrop was and interacted with it and did vo comma, then I went to 
my network and to the other mac and did command shift r for airdrop and did vo 
period but it said that the item was no longer available for airdrop.

I know I'm doing something wrong, but just can't figure out what.

Thanks for any help..
Totally mystified,
Caitlyn

 Hi,
 
 I haven't used airdrop in a few months but I believe it drops the file in the 
 downloads folder by default.

 Hi Robert,
 So, if the place where I wanted to airdrop the file is someplace on my 
 network, I should first open that place, then go to where my file resides, 
 then do the drag and drop thing?
 
 Thanks for your help!

 Hi Caitlyn,
 
 The key is that both the file on your Mac and the location on the mac where 
 you want to drop the file have to be visible on your screen at the same 
 time So, open two finder windows one with the file and the other with 
 airdrop and you can make it work.

 Hi,
 Has anybody successfully been able to use air drop with lion yet?  I tried 
 a couple of times tonight and it kept saying failed to drop on airdrop.  
 Any suggestions?  I was using the vo commands to drag my file selection 
 from my documents and then used command shift r to bring up the air drop 
 item then tried to drop the file with voperiod.  Have I got that right?
 
 Thanks,
 Caitlyn
