[HOWTO] Enable Airdrop in your Lion Mac

Satcomer

In Geostationary Orbit
I saw a cool MacOSXHints' Airdrop Hint today.

So in your unsupported Airport card (has to be N) just open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal and put in the code (no sudo required):

Code:
defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1

Then just hold down the option(alt) key and click on the Dock's Finder icon and choose 'Relaunch'.

Airdrop is ready to use and it works in my 10.7.x 2007 Mac Book Pro with my 2008 Mac Pro, so it works!
