I connected my iPhone to my my Mac to import and delete old photos but the majority of the photos on my iPhone are not showing up in photos on my Mac so I can import them or delete them. Only recent ones are showing.
Thank you for replying. I followed all those instructions but for some reason, photos older than 2017 don't show on my Mac's Photo app when I link the iPhone. There are no photos in iCloud since I deleted the Back Up and unticked photos in iCloud when I backed up again. So, why are they on my iPhone but can't delete them?
