Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
iPhone XR running 16.4.1, MacBook Air running12.6.5 (Intel chip) won't connect to back up phone... Repeated "Trust this computer" message, which instantly disappears, so I can't do the backup. Any hints?
iPhone XR, iOS 16

If the iPhone is not showing up in Finder using Safe Mode, use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of "If your computer doesn't recognize your iPhone or iPad."

Having given all the devices a good night's rest and battery charge, the backup went ahead with no trouble this morning... Perhaps the battery charge level on the phone may be a significant factor.
Thanks for your consideration.
Did you try using a different cable/port?
Restart the computer, and try again.
Yes, restarted both phone and laptop, tried different ports and cables... same response!

You are welcome...thanks for the feedback.
I am having difficulty getting my iphone to connect to my Mac laptop... The "Trust this computer" messages repeatedly appears and disappears before I can press the Trust button and progress to the passcode... Any hints?
