I have an Iphone XS Max and MacBook Air. All up to date with IOS 14.3 and Big Sur 11.1. Every time I connect the two with a lightening cable, it repeatedly gives a File Not Found message (like hundreds of times so I have to disconnect) and keeps flicking in and out of connection, so can't even press the OK buttons. Any ideas.
I've tried loads of different cables, so it's not that.
Open the Finder app and a new window and then connect the device. It will show in the sidebar.

It's not showing in the Finder bar because it keeps connecting and disconnecting rapidly, so I can't click on it.
Using a USB-A cable?
You must use a USB-A port.
I've had no problems with this before using a lightning cable, it's since updating to Big Sur 11.1
Lightning is the phone part. You have what type of USB cable?
