I have never gotten into using AirDrop between my 4 devices because back in the day on the first one, a 27" iMac mid-2011, I had essentially this problem. The machine is on 10.13.6 High Sierra. I eventually had to give up. Now it would be very nice and helpful if it did work.
I just can't get it to see any of the other devices, and none of them can see it - in Finder -> AirDrop or in Share...
I have gone through all of the guidance I can find on the Internet repeatedly and not succeed.
I wonder if there is a hardware limitation. Maybe that the mid-2011 27" iMac says it does not support Bluetooth Low Energy, while I think all the others are newer and do, and back in the day I recall that being an issue for some of new stuff at some point.
