  One possible reason for airdrop not working on El Capitan could be outdated software. Make sure both devices have the latest version of the operating system installed. Additionally, check if airdrop is enabled in the settings and if both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Restarting the devices and toggling airdrop on and off might also help troubleshoot the issue.

  Sometimes airdrop can be affected by interference from other nearby devices. Try moving away from any electronic devices or Wi-Fi routers that could be causing interference. Additionally, check if there are any software conflicts or third-party apps that might be blocking airdrop. Disabling or uninstalling these apps could potentially resolve the issue.
