“Trust This Computer” Not Appearing on iPhone
If the Trust dialog never shows when you connect your iPhone, you can restore it by resetting Location & Privacy. Here's how.
Quick Fix
Go to Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Location & Privacy. Enter your passcode. Disconnect and reconnect your iPhone — the Trust prompt will appear.
Why the Trust Dialog Disappears
Cause
Tapped 'Don't Trust'
Fix
iPhone remembers this choice per computer. Reset Location & Privacy to clear it.
Cause
Computer already trusted (from before)
Fix
The dialog won't reappear if the computer is in the trusted list. If iGlide still can't connect, reset trust anyway.
Cause
Charge-only USB cable
Fix
The dialog only appears with data-capable cables. Use the original Apple cable.
Cause
iPhone in airplane mode or restarted mid-connection
Fix
Disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.

Reset Location & Privacy
On iPhone: Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Location & Privacy. Enter your device passcode when prompted. This resets all trust decisions, including which computers your iPhone has trusted or rejected.
Warning: This also resets location permissions for all apps. Apps like Maps and Camera may ask for location access again.
