iMac does not see iPhone

[jimzushi]

Hello,
I transfer MP3 music from my iMac to my iPhone using a USB-C cable to play in Music. All of a sudden my iMac won't see my iPhone when I plug it in and the iPhone does not show up in the Music side bar. I've tried checking the appropriate boxes in Finder preferences and force quit USBD in Activity monitor. Anything else I can do?

iPhone 14 iOS 18.4.1
Mac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, Late 2015)
3.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
macOS 12.7.6

Have you tried to turning your iPhone off and then back on again. Maybe try restarting your iMac if you haven't already.

Thanks for the link. I followed the instructions to reset Location & Privacy on my iPhone. Still doesn't work. So weird that it worked one day but stopped working the next even though I didn't change anything.

Have you tried another cable?

iPhone does not show up in the music app and I only have one cable that was working fine before.
