have managed to connect iphone 4 to Macbook Pro with usb cable. I want to transfer all data (photos etc) off of phone so I can set the phone to factory settings for perhaps someone else to use.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.7
iPhone 4 is an obsolete device that likely will not connect on modern cell networks. It is, after all, almost fifteen (!) years old.
I'm not sure if it will communicate with recent versions of macOS, but here is Apple's current guidance:
Use the Photos application to download pictures from the iPhone.
Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone or iPad to your Mac or PC - Apple Support
Use a Finder window to create a backup of your iPhone on the Mac.

The iPhone 4 is now thoroughly obsolete both as a cell phone (no support for 4G or 5G), and as a platform for running apps (it has a 32-bit processor and can’t update past iOS 7).
You could maybe load purchased music onto it with the aid of a computer, and use it as a portable music player, but that’s about it.
