I bought the IOGEAR Bluetooth 4.0 USB Micro Adapter, GBU521 dongle. It itself is working. I am having issues with airdrop. I am using Catalina 10.15.3. My machine is a Lenovo M93p tiny. I'm fairly new to this whole hackintosh. I've googled and read the forums and can't see to find how to get this to work. When I click airdrop it says "The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found." Please any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am using a D-Link DWA-171 wireless dongle. I am able to both bluetooth and wireless dongles are working just can't get airdrop to work

With Catalina, my understanding is that you're meant to use PatchRAM3, not patchRAM2. I also understand you need the Injector kext. This, on the assumption that you use one of those build that were revisited by headkaze, Mieze or acidanthera. You would be expected to use the last build...

Pardon me for being non understanding. What do I download from this page? I don't see the Kext Files. I seem to be missing something.

Indeed, you missed the Release button.

This is what I've done so far, I've added Kexts (BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext , BrcmFirmwareData.kext , and BrcmPatchRAM3.kext) to Library/Extensions. I then restarted system and when I click finder then the Airdrop icon (still isn't labeled as Airdrop) It closes finder. Any advice, Thank you so much for your help

 

attached a screenshot of my wifi information AirPort Utility says no installed, could this be an issue?
