No Bluetooth Connection

[Nik Naf]

Hi guys,

I just migrated to macOS (previously lifelong Windows user) and tried transferring some files from my LG phone to my 2020 MBA via Bluetooth. Although the MBA and my phone pair successfully, the connection drops (or at least that's what the MBA tells me) as soon as I try transferring any files. I have tried restarting my phone and MBA but the problem persists, any solutions? Is this a common issue?

Thank you.

iPhones don't support file exchange over Bluetooth. Use AirDrop to send files from the MBA to the iPhone, or better use iCloud sync.

Unless I misread the OPs post he didn’t mention iPhones. He referred to an LG phone.

No. I misread. I thought he wanted to go LG > MacBook Air, and then to an iPhone.
