Software update required to connect to iPhone XR?
My Mac (21.5-inch, Late 2012) is years older than my iPhone and I don't think I can upgrade the Mac OS.
What to do now?
iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Hello sje45,

You do not need to update the Mac OS. Take a look at this.
Perhaps I should have included the fact that I am running macOS Catalina Version 10.15.7.
I believe this is the newest OS that will work on my iMac Late 2012.
