Android Transfer file doesn't work between my new iMac 2023 (M3) Sonoma and my Android phone

In System Settings>Full Disk Access, does Android File Transfer have Full access?

There is no doubt there have been many problems with the Android File Transfer app that has affected many OS versions on either the Mac or the phone. Support and updates for the app are lacking to address these issues. Some users claim it conflicts with DropBox and was able to use the app after quitting DropBox, while others have been so disappointed in the support for the app, that they have used other options. These 3 links may offer you some solutions or alternatives along with the struggles others have faced on many different phones and updates between versions on the phones.

What phone do you have and do you recall if it recently updated.

Asking, because this sounds more like a phone setting or a phone update that is the problem.

If file transfer doesn't work with either iMac, then it was the Galaxy update that broke file transfer.

Great, any diff yet?
