I have an Iphone 6 plus and just purchased a new macbook14 ". My phone will not connect with this thunderbolt 4 port and I cannot figure out what I need to buy to fix this. Does anybody out there know?
MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
What you will need is a Lightning to USB-C cable. This cable will connect your iPhone 6 Plus to your MacBook’s thunderbolt port. Here is an example of that cable ➡️ Lightning to USB-C Cable on Amazon. See image below:

Thank you so much for your answer, Axel. Because I cannot see the Iphone 6 plus listed in any of the descriptions, I did not know if it would work. Believe it or not, this old brain has been trying to figure it out for longer than I want to admit! Once again, thank you for your courtesy...
You are welcome.
This cable or a cable like this one will work with what you want to do with your iPhone 6 Plus and your MacBook. I am assuming that you are looking to connect these two devices so that you can create backups of your iPhone 6 Plus and possibly synch some data.

Just to add that the USB-C to Lightning cable should work, but if you wish to use your existing USB-A to Lightning cables, you can also use a USB-C to USB-A hub (these are quite common) or a USB-C male to USB-A female adapter. I have several of these from different manufacturers, but these are my favorite because they're cheap if you can find them. Not sure if you're in a country (or even area) with Daiso stores, but this one is only $1.50 plus tax in the United States. The 10-pack is for online sales, but they sell them invidiually in stores for $1.50.
