flashing Trust this computer?

When I connect my iPhone 12 to my macbook, the "Trust this computer?" prompt flashes on my phone, but won't respond when I try to click on "Trust." How do I fix this?

Catalina puts all the iPhone content on the computer's Finder via an iPhone icon on the left sidebar of the Finder when the trust is completed. It no longer loads iTunes or any other programs like prior operating systems.


Hence why there is no apparent response on the computer. You have to look for the new icon in the Finder to indicate the connection has taken place.


You can still use Image Capture to grab photos and movies off the phone if you so desire.
