Actually the new cord isn’t a regular cord. It come with its own charger that has what seems like a mini hdmi port. So the new cord has a mini hdmi end that can’t be plugged into a USB port.
Just FYI, thanks again!
Ah, for the future, you should only use Apple-approved cables and chargers with your Apple gear. Your iPhone came with the proper cable to connect to standard USB. If your Mac uses USB-C, then you should use Apple’s Lightning to USB-C cable.
Thank you it the cord I was using. That solved my problem
Glad it’s working now.
The iPhone 11 is quite new. Hopefully the cord is as well.
Sorry I failed to mention that is the cord that came with my iPhone 11 with an hdmi mini end.
