Cannot Fairphone 6 e/OS connect to Mac

Help Fairphone 6
1

Followed all the steps to connect my Fairphone 6 e/OS to my Mac in order to transfer foto’s

  • cable OK
  • FP in USB - transfer data mode
  • get the message on my homescreen that datatransfer in allowed

…but my Mac does not “recognise” my FP. I then downloaded OpenMTP, as suggested in one of the FP FAQ files, but that did not improve the situation, Mac still not recognmized…. Any tips?

Weird: my PC does recognize my FP and I can transfer foto’s to it..

Forgive me for perhaps ‘asking the obvious’, but your description of the situation made me wonder, did you actually open OpenMTP, on the Mac?

Definitely! But I get the message in OpenMTP that my phone is not connected…Follow the OpenMTP instructions to no avail.
