    You need to swipe down from the top on your phone to see the notifications, and then follow the one that talks about USB ... enable File Sharing - which may well be labelled MTP. Once this is done you'll be able to see your phone contents.

    This has all already been said at least once in this very thread.

    Phone needs to be unlocked.
    Have to allow connection to PC - usually by acting on the connection notification.
