How to connect Kobo Clara HD to Macbook M1

Hi there. I have been using my Clara HD for over a year now. Previously it would connect to my old laptop (Macbook Air 2015), but the new one (M1 Macbook Air) won't recognize it. I have tried using another cable and downloading the Rakuten Kobo app, but the device will not recognize it. I want to transfer some 3rd party books and pdf.

Is there a way I can connect my reader to Macbook? Alternatively, is there a way to send books to kobo wirelessly?
