There is settings on the iPhone so that it will convert the HEIC images to .jpg when transferring to a Mac. There is another option on the iPhone to save the pictures in .jpg format instead of HEIC.


Open the "Settings" app and scroll down to "Camera". The two settings I mentioned above are:

"Keep Normal Photo" and if you click "Formats" you will see an option for "Most Compatible".
