HT203106 Airdrop is not working on iMac running on Yosemite 10.10.2

Hi,
My iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) is running on OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
and can not see bottom option on my airdrop window
Can not see my iPhone 6 Plus or any apple device who has Airdrop "ON"
how to fix this issue?

You cannot use AirDrop between iPhone 6 and your iMac mid-2011.
This is why
In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.

Airdrop does not work in iMac on my network

Trying to transfer files through Airdrop. It absolutely does not work or recognize anything on any of my iMacs (2011,2014) from iPhone6 through Airport network. When I go to my friend's house (same Airport and iMac and iphone) Airdrop works just fine.
This is what i see on my finder. Even when everything I have is connected to the network and the Airdrop finder page is on or I'm trying to send an image or something through my iphone

With Yosemite we have a new kind of AirDrop and what used to be AirDrop is now "Legacy Airdrop" because older computers cannot support the new standard. On your newer computer (The late 2013) model when you select AirDrop you'll see in blue type "Don't see who you're looking for?" You have to click on that link and then click on "Search for an Older Mac"
Assuming you've already selected AirDrop on the older Mac, it will appear as you'd expect on the 2013 iMac. I've found that sometimes once the "Legacy AirDrop" has been selected on the new computer on my older MBP I have to unselect AirDrop and then reselect it for the newer computers to be seen on the older MBP.
Hope this resolves your problem. Almost forget - choosing "Legacy" isn't sticky. You have to do this every time you want to Airdrop with an older computer.

Airdrop - not working from iMac to MacBook Pro

Airdrop won't work from iMac to MacBook Pro, but will work from MacBook Pro to iMac. Is there something I need to set on either computer?
Thanks.

HT3669 HP ENVY 4500 e-All-in-One Version 3.2.1 does not work on iMac 20-inch, Mid 2007. Only recognizes scanner not USB printer.

HP ENVY 4500 e-All-in-One Version 3.2.1 does not work on iMac 20-inch, Mid 2007. Only recognizes scanner not USB printer.
I would like to print via the USB connection instead of wireless (the wireless does work, and the scanner works via USB).
I tried connecting the printer directly (via USB) to my MacBook Pro laptop and it worked just fine.
How can I make this printer work on my iMac?
I spent 4 hours on the phone with HP and we did every combination of installation of drivers ad nausum and their bottom line is that it is a Mac problem.
Any help would be appreciated. Will be sending this printer back to Amazon if I can't make it work on the USB.
I am open to questions or suggestions
Thanks,
Chet

After 4 hours on the phone with HP and another hour with Apple (Mavericks support) no real solution other than check everything (removed everything from Login Items, removed all HP software anywhere in the system reboot, reinstall printer) then when nothing worked for the 4500, did an OS Reinstall (boot with CMD+R).
The Mavericks support group did open an incident (# 542875311) and I will update it when I figure out how to find it on the system.
My feel is that the base problem is that somewhere between the HP-Inkjet-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.49-2 package and the Apple HP Printer software in the Library (version 2.16.1) the app for printing via the USP Port just does not get installed for the mid 2007 20 inch iMac. The scanner is recognized on the USB Port and the Printer works fine on Wi-Fi. I have too many devices to burden my home network with anothe device. Also, every time I put any HP Printer on Wi-Fi, my router (Netgear N600 WNDR3400 running 12 to 20 devices depending on who is home) gets wonky (but that's anothe story...).
Additionally, when I attach the HP Envy 4500 to my MacBook Pro (2010) it works perfect - print and scan via the USB prot and both functions show in the System Preferences - Printers and Scanners just as expected and just as the 3050 does.

What are you trying to AirDrop to? Another iOS device or a Mac?
Check out this tutorial for getting AirDrop setup as well as the system requirements...make sure your devices all meet the stated requirements.

Apple maps not working on iMac

apple maps not working on iMac the little thing just keeps turning

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Maps.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Animation not working on iMac 10.6.2

So I get these emails from time to time that have animated graphics in them - from what I can tell (in this case today anyway) they are .gif files in the mail. My question is why does the animation occur on my iPod touch (1st gen) but not on my iMac running 10.6.2?

I don't know why, but animated gifs have been broken on Mac OS X for years, long before Snow Leopard came out ... at least that's my experience.

So that airdrop does not work my? , not even it appears to me the configuration of this application.

Hi, as the forum topic title says: iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store, I guess this the right place to ask !!!
Anyway I already tried to contact the developer. Page's link does not bring anywhere. no site, no contact mail :(:( it seems Apple bought a App from some... Ghost. And, worst, now the App disappeared from ITunes Store and.... Apple support (at least by email) just mistalk about it giving no solution at all. I really guess who reply mails is a f...g computer trying analyzing the question and trying give solution. Coz their emails are always confusing or talking about sth else than my troubleshooting.
Anyway... Ok... I just hope have at least my money back.
Bye

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

I am trying to set an open DNS using the MacAir. But when I tried to flush the existing one at utilities/terminal, it will not work. I am using Yosemite. May I know what should be the command line so that I can shift to an open DNS? Thanks
