Unable to import photos from a new iPhone XR iOS 12.1.3

Hi, currently i'm unable to import photos from a new iPhone XR iOS 12.1.3 to a macbook touchbar 2016 with macOS 10.13.6. I'v tried resets, reboots, enabling disabling etc. nothing works.


It is not working with apple Photo and Adobe Lightroom CC.


ANY suggestion or help is welcome!

Hi,


I was able to contact an Apple technician and we ended up with reinstalling iOS (resetting the iPhone) and recovering the data (apps, photos, ...) from a backup I did before the reset.


Now I can sync / import with Apple Photo and Lightroom without any problem.


Remember: do regularly a backup :) it might be worth one day.
