No iCloud Backups on Finder

Trying to restore my iPhone XR to an old iCloud backup but when I open manage backups there is nothing there. But there are loads of files when I search for them using spotlight.

Iphone Backup Problems on Mac Hello- I have always, and refer to continue backing up my Iphone on my Mac mini rather than iCloud but recently began having trouble. I have a mac Mini running Sequoia 15.2 and Iphone 15 on IOS 18.2. When I am in finder on my Iphone and click Backup (Like I have done for many years) I now get "Cannot backup Iphone because the Iphone backup is corrupt". It says to delete backups, but for some reason it says I have none for this phone and says "last backup: Never" I have read everything I can but can't get it to work and have dug through as much of the Mac as I can looking for a backup folder to see if I can find a corupt backup file, but I can't find one. The only major change has been updating to Sequoia so I feel like that has something to do with it but not sure. Any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks!

You don't use finder to restore from your iCloud backup Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
