connect an iPhone camera to a MacBook
I see the help topic here:
Choose an external camera on Mac - Apple Support
It says this:
QuickTime Player: Choose File > New Movie Recording, hold the pointer over the window, click the down arrow , then choose a camera.
Doesn't work for me.
I assume I do have a connection between the iPhone and MacBook. See the steps below.
my steps:
- connect iPhone to the Macbook (iOS 16.6.1, macOS 12.5.1)
- open the camera app on the iPhone and select Video
- verify the connection by opening Finder on the MacBook and clicking the listed iPhone12
- in QuickTime Player select File/New Movie Recording, then click the down arrow by the red button on the QuickTime window
expected result:
see the iPhone listed as a camer aoption
actual result:
the only option listed is FaceBook HD camera
How to debug or fix this? I want to use the iPhone as an external camera.
MacBook Pro 13″, OS X 10.11
