How To Fix iPhone Photos Not Showing On Mac Problem?
Restart iPhone And Mac
Restarting both your devices, i.e., your iPhone and your Mac, is one of the simplest methods to solve iPhone photos not showing on Mac. Also, ensure that all apps are closed before you restart your devices. Finally, check to see if your iPhone photos are showing up on your Mac after you restart.
Check USB Cable
We recommend using the “Lightning Cable” when transferring data from iPhone to Mac or vice versa. However, if you are using a cable other than Apple’s proprietary “Lightning Cable,” you may want to check to see if it has any flaws. You can also try plugging it into a different Mac to ensure there are no issues with your Mac.
