Hello tt2,
Thank you so much. I actually followed your direction from your another post before posting here. My attempt didn't work and hoping/waiting for apple to release the necessary software at this point. Also curious if anyone else had the same problem with iphone 14 and have found a work around.
I have an iPhone 8 with iOS 16 which works flawlessly with the same machine. So, wondering if this is an iPhone 14 issue exclusively.
In Finder use the menu item Go > Go to Folder..., copy the following text, paste it into the dialog box and press enter:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/Current/Resources
Unlock your device and connect it to USB. Double click on MobileDeviceUpdater in the folder that has opened. It should notify you of a software update. Install it and iTunes should hopefully recognize your device.
If these steps haven't worked you can also try reinstalling iTunes12.8.2.3.dmg (El Capitan/Sierra) or iTunes12.8.3.1 (High Sierra) while your device is connected and unlocked.

Okay, finally got it to work. Thank you Apple Tech support (Robert) for graciously helping me out.
Hope this helps.
