MacBook Pro no longer sees phone
After updating to ICS, when I connect my phone to my MacBook via USB, it will only charge. It no longer mounts the USB storage and SD card to allow for file transfer. It will charge, though. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I use USB to transfer/store photos and videos from my phone on my computer.

Try this:
1) Settings > Developer options > Turn On USB Debugging
2) Settings > (Under Wireless and network) More...
3) USB utilities
4) Connect storage to Mac
5) When prompted press OK
6) Plug in your USB Cable

I don't see option 3 (USB utilities) in the "More..." section Originally Posted by ragnarokx

I have a similar issue, I used to be able to connect my Epic 4g Touch to my Bluray player and watch video files off of my phone, well since ICS the player can no longer see or connect to the phone. Not like in Gingerbread :-/ I tried changing usb debug on/off and still no luck.

The file transfer app is an acceptable solution/work-around.
