Exactly where on the Mac are you looking for the iPhone? Also, have you closely read and followed Apple's instructions in Sync content between your Mac and iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support (UK) and finally what are you attempting to physically connect the two devices. If you are using iCloud you can sync, backup and do just about anything necessary.

Restart both the iMac and the iPhone, then reconnect and look on the Finder sidebar.
I found later an update available 16.1 for iPhone. This being loaded I am now back to normal. Thank you for your help and consideration.
Your welcome.
