I have always dragged a copy of my photos from my iPhones into a folder on my Mac (now on OS 10.15.7). Since moving my iPhone 8 to IOS 14.6 I don't see a way to get to my photos to move them. I don't like Apple "Photos" app, as I can't search by .jpg number from the Finder, which has been very important to me. Does anyone know a way I can see my photos to copy them?

Try this. On your iPhone, tap this symbol while viewing your photo in Photos.
Then choose “Save to Files”. That will show you the number you’re seeking.
I do see a "work-a-round". I can highlight the photos in the "Photos" app, then use the "Export" command to move a copy to a new folder or external drive.
If anyone has an idea on how to view the photos on the iPhone directly while it is plugged in to the usb port, I would appreciate knowing the procedure.

Scan with Malwarebytes:
What are you looking to do with the connection? If you are just looking to connect it, then you should not get such a popup. So, scan you Mac for Malware.

Thanks for the response, but this link uses "Photos" to transfer the images. The problem is Photos does not let one search from the Finder for a .jpg number. I could see the photos on my iPhone with IOS 14.5 (and all previous IOS), then pick the ones I wanted to copy, but I cannot seem to see my photos with the new IOS 14.6. If anyone knows a way to do this, please let me know. (I could purchase an outside program, such as ICareFone, but I think there should be a way to do this transfer without spending more money).
I don't know if this is related, but my Mac has asked me several times to download additional software to connect my iPhone 8
Thanks - no malware detected

You are welcome. Great job checking 👍
Yes, that allows me to save the photo to iCloud (my iMac desktop folder) with the .jpg number. Thank you so much, you are a genius!
I’m delighted that answered your question!
Enjoy your Apple gear.
