Same thing has been happening to me too for about a week now. Photos recognizes my phone but finder won't and It is visible in the system info under usb 3.0.... Im trying to back up my apps to my comp but haven't been able to and haven't found any fixes. I will not restore my phone ( iphone 11) and I shouldn't have too because there is nothing wrong with it and it works perfectly fine.
