Not my experience at all. If you are connecting the iPhone to your iMac using a cable, it only takes a few clicks to initiate the transfer any new photos on your phone over to the iMac.


Open Photos on the iMac

Click on the name of your phone on the left panel

Click Import All New Photos


Now any new photos on your iPhone will be copied over to the Photos image Library on your iMac

I’ve had no issues transferring using Photos app and USB to import (details), but another option is iCloud Photos, where the iPhone will upload new photos to iCloud as networking and available storage allows.


Any add-on anti-malware apps, add-on security apps, add-on VPN apps, add-on firewalls, add-on cleaners, or such apps installed in that Mac? If so, remove all that per the vendors’ instructions, restart, and try again.
