iPhone 16 Pro Connecting to Pocket 6K Pro via USB-C

PostWed Oct 02, 2024 12:43 am

So the iPhone 16 Pro I ordered before this hurricane hit arrived today. I did a test with the P6KPro connecting it via USB-C to see if it will get wireless for uploading and a few of the other features. But it won’t connect. I’m curious if anyone else has experienced this yet?

When I connect the “Trust Computer” dialogue flashes briefly but disappears before I can select Trust. And, the Date/Time is not auto updating from connecting the phone now because I don’t think the phone and camera are connecting.

Ultimately this results in me not being able to use the Upload to Cloud features with the phone connected.

Is this a common occurrence? Or could it be the phone I got?

Currently restarting the iPhone while connected allows me to get the Trust dialogue to stay on screen long enough for me to select Trust. And, it shows a connection. However, the camera cannot get the Date/Time connection to work, and when in the Blackmagic Cloud Page of the Camera it says "Not Connected to Internet" despite showing a connection to the phone on the phone.

Will be exploring more. But this may be the result of it being a newer phone and Blackmagic hasn't added it yet to be recognized properly by the camera.
