If both the device does not use same Apple ID then you need to accept the AirDrop on the other device else the transfer will get canceled.


The recently deleted video will be under the recently deleted album in the Photos App. If it does not exist then it is gone, I am sorry.

I had a similar problem with Mac Air 2013 and iPhone 11. I sent from my iphone to the mac and did not see the file. I sent again and got a canceled message. I thought I remembered seeing in "Airdrop" in the past.


It was in the Downloads folder. I'm not sure if the default location has changed, if I may have changed it, or if my memory is faulty. :)


Check your Downloads folder and other default locations (such as desktop.) Tell me if it works for you.
