I have a new iphone 11 that takes HEIC photo files - by default? they imported into Photos but once I drag them into an outside folder I can't open them - running El Cap on an older 2010 iMac. I need the photos for an insurance claim. Ideas?
iMac 27", OS X 10.11
MacOS 10.11 El Capitan does not support HEIC images. You need a Mac with macOS 10.13 work with HEIC. See this page on how to set the settings on your iPhone to have them converted to JPEG when you import them to a computer. Or set the iPhone to take the photos in a more compatible format:
Using HEIF or HEVC media on Apple devices - Apple Support
To convert the HEIC image you have already on your mac try the online converter at http://heictojpg.com/
To change the settings on the iPhone to capture JPEG instead of HEIC:
Though capturing in HEIF and HEVC format is recommended, you can set these devices to capture media using the older formats, which are more broadly compatible with other devices and operating systems:
To change the Settings to transfer the HEIC as JPEGS:
When you import HEIF or HEVC media from an attached iOS device to Photos, Image Capture, or a PC, the media might be converted to JPEG or H.264.
You can change this import behavior in iOS 11 or later. Go to Settings > Photos. In the TRANSFER TO MAC OR PC section, tap Keep Originals to prevent the media from being converted to JPEG or H.264 when importing.
