Have photos on your Mac that you'd like on your iPhone or iPad? Just AirDrop them, no cables required!</p> <!--break--> <p>Before attempting the steps below, remember that you must have a compatible device. iOS devices must be running iOS 7 or later while you must own a 2012 or later Mac in order to AirDrop between iOS and OS X.</p> <p>You'll need to make sure AirDrop is enabled on your devices. In order to do so on your Mac, just open a <strong>Finder window</strong> and choose <strong>AirDrop</strong> in the side navigation. You can then change who can see your Mac at the bottom of that window. As for your iPhone or iPad, you can follow these instructions (http://www.imore.com/how-enable-ios-7-airdrop-your-iphone-and-ipad) to enable or disable AirDrop.</p> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-airdrop-files-your-mac-your-iphone-or-ipad' title="How to AirDrop files from your Mac to your iPhone or iPad"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2014/11/airdrop_mac_from_iphone_howto_3.jpg?itok=klpRqfyj' />[/url]</p> <h2>How to send files from your Mac to your iPhone or iPad with AirDrop</h2> <ol><li>Find the file you'd like to share on your Mac.
