iPhone 13 mini not synchronising

Hi all,


Just got a new iPhone 13 mini and even if it trusts my Mac, it doesn’t appear in iTunes so I can’t synchronise it.

I run on a MacBook Air 11” from late 2010, my iPhone 11 Pro doesn’t have any issue it synchronises perfectly well even I use 3rd-party cable.

No new updates are available for iTunes, and my iPhone 13 mini is up to date as well.

Anyone knows how to solve the problem?

Thanks

Hi Jeff,


I actually managed to get a last minute appointment yesterday afternoon at a Genius Bar.


They inspected my computer and said it was too old to let the 13 mini synchronise (MacBook Air 11” from late 2010).


But thanks for answering 😉
