Hi, I have MacBook Air 2017 with macOS Monterey and yesterday I bought iPad 9th gen. I am trying to connect them thru Bluetooth and airdrops but none of them work, I get "pairing unsuccessful MacBook Air is not supported" warning. Both devices seem have the latest updates, how can I solve this problem?
Thanks.

Have a look at opencore legacy patcher https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/ it will allow you to run Sonoma on your macbook air 2017 and should give you the required compatibility.

As for performance, I'm using it on a 4GB 2015 macbook air (11 inch) with no issues at all. I've event done some C++ development with it.
