I accidentally pressed the eject button on the finder in Macbook air, and I tried to connect them again, but in the side section I can't find the iPhone button again, I tried updating the software of my Macbook Air and I searched the network from the system preferences and I still can't seem to connect with my iPhone. I uses cable C to connect with my iPhone, I tried connecting with Bluetooth as well. Please help!
Hi Grace9461,
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Wondering which iPhone you have, and which iOS is installed.
Also
Which Mac Book Air model, and which Operating System is on that.
Have you tried re-starting your Mac, before trying to connect with iPhone, to see if that helps ?
Apple support has articles online (links below) that may help troubleshoot.
