I am trying to import photos from my iPhone into Lightroom on my Windows pc. I am using the most up to date software on both devices.
When I choose to Import in Lightroom the software recognises that my iPhone is connected by says that there are no photos on the phone.
When I use Windows explorer it lists the iPhone and Internal Storage (72.5 GB Free of 119 GB) but it will not list the individual photos.

Can anyone suggest what to try next please?
Thanks
Charles
Even if you are using Classic, you are much better off installing LR CC on the iPhone and importing there. They will show up automatically in Classic if you turn on the Sync in Classic. You can even shoot raw files on your phone with the LR CC app.

Hi Charles,
On the Windows PC can you tell us what version of Lightroom you are using?
Also, do you have a Creative Cloud Photography subscription? (as it may be easier to import into the mobile app and sync via the Cloud to the Desktop from there)

Are you using LrCC or Lr Classic on your computers? If you are using LrCC, you will have much better luck importing directly from your phone. Download the LrCC mobile app on your phone and import them there.
