Importing from iPhone 17 into LRC

How do I do this?

WHen I try to import, with my iPhone plugged into my Mac, the Destination does not show up in the Import Module in LRC 15.3.1.    If I try to save or import from iCloud, all the photos show up as HEIC files, and are greyed out.   I have several hundred photos on the iPhone 17 that I’d like to import into LR. I’ve done some work on them using SnapSeed, but I prefer Lightroom.
