Is your mobile phone locked? (ie with a password, fingerprint, etc)
If your phone is locked, you need to:
- connect the phone via USB to you computer.
- Unlock your phone (enter password, apply fingerprint) to access the data.
Basically if your phone is locked, your computer can't read the storage UNTIL you unlock your phone, giving access to the computer.
