… I have a 128GB 15 Pro and yeah my laptop is the 2010 MacBook Pro which can no longer link up with new iPhones to get any data off them. The only way I can move data to that Mac anymore is to literally upload to iCloud and then download from iCloud to the Mac. It’s basically useless due to no more software updates for like 8 years or whatever it’s been now.
Getting off topic but (Im keeping) in mind your laptop is only usb 2.0.…ugh, doesn’t support airdrop from iOS
Your best bet for file transfer is probably a cheap 2 in 1 usba usbc thumbdrive.
