android file transfer not working on Ventura

I keep on getting: "Please connect your Android device with a USB cable to get started" and/or

"Try reconnecting or restarting your device", although the hardware connection to my

Samsung Galaxy A33 is ok, the cable is ok, and the USB debugging is on.

The "Android File Transfer" app worked ok with the macOS 12 (Monterey).

Thanks.



MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.0

Wow, thank you so much!!!

I spent a huge amount of time trying to make this @#$% Android File Transfer work on Ventura, and apparently, simply quitting Google Drive and Preview - makes it work again!!! :)

Thank you!
