[issue resolved]
After reading a few more posts I tried setting the Nano 33 IoT into boot loader mode by double pressing the reset button. This worked and now I can upload.

Hi,
I've had all sorts of issues trying to stabilise Arduino on macOS Mojave and Catalina. This was due to outdated FTDUSB drivers which when removed cured the issues.
But I now have a problem where I can't upload sketches to a Nano 33 IoT, uploading to Nano Every and UNO R3 work without errors. All boards are official Arduino. Note: during the upload the process appears to pause / stall for a period (2-3mins) and then fails.
Any help with uploading to the Nano 33 IoT would be appreciated, error message below:
