Backing up an old iPhone 6

I have an old iPhone 6 and I'm trying to back it up to my MAC. When I plug it into my MAC, it doesn't give me the usual simple instructions for back-up. It has been a couple of year since I last backed it up. Do I need to do something different?


iPhone 6, iOS 12

Backing Up is No Different:

No. Nothing is be different about the method to back up. Aside from using a Mac, you can try backing up using iCloud or a PC instead. Go more to learn more: How to Back Up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
