    iPhone X Problem downloading photos IphoneX

    I have an IphoneX and a mid 2009 MacbookPro with upgraded Ram. However, when I go to download photos from my iPhoneX, it always gives you the wheel of death and will not load the photos even enough to transfer them to the mac (even in small portions).

    iTunes Doesn't See Photos

    I know, I'm old school. I still sync photos to my iPhone XS from my Photos library, via iTunes. How else would I get DSLR photos from my Mac to phone? In their proper album? There's no way that I know of. So in iTunes, I go to the iPhone screen, then the photos tab on the left, and check...
