[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1887571, member: 204485"] AirDrop has a habit of being frustrating I'm sad to say. I assume Faqua, that you are syncing your Contacts via iCloud. It's a default setting so if you are signed into iCloud on all your devices your name card should be the same on all. If it is with someone else's device then enter the details for that user into your Contacts app in the same way it appears in their Contacts app. Below is an illustration of what I see when I open a finder window and click on AirDrop in the sidebar. [ATTACH type="full"]34341[/ATTACH] The little arrow down symbol allows you to cycle through "No one," "Contacts Only," and "Everyone". So, you can return it to No One after you share your photos. Just drag them to the other device on the screen (above) eg. iPhone, iPad. You will then need to accept the photos on the device in question. The receiving device needs to be unlocked. You must have Bluetooth switched on in all devices and they must all be using the same WiFi network. Preferably they should all be using the latest Operating System. [/QUOTE]
