steve_b_wales Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Is there a free program that will allow me to transfer my photo's from my phone onto my computer? I have an iPhone SE, but intend buying an Android phone soon. I would like to keep the all the photo's though, before I revert the phone back to factory settings.

Jason_ox Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Use the charging/lightning cable, plug it in your pc, plug phone in. Go into ‘computer’ and select iPhone which should be with the storage tabs like C: drive D: drive etc. Once selected you should see your picture folders from there and be able to save them to your PC.

jam1e Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 If you've named the file your pics have gone to, go to the C drive and put the name of the file in your computers search bar. Top far right on mine. Just a thought.. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul1440 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 One reason I don't like Apple too much. How to instructions are:- 1. Difficult to find. 2. You get sent to forums where everyne has their own way of doing things. 3 The info is 10years out of date and refer to an IPod or something else. 4. You have to navigate around Adverts and multiple downloadable programmes promising the world of convenience that are either useless or let you get to the bit you want before asking asking ransom in payment. No doubt the photos are stored "on the cloud" at sometime in the past an annoying pop up would keep bugging you to press accept (even after you say no) which will then have transferred all of then on to " the cloud" and removed them from the phone storage. The phone will then download them for viewing when you want to view them. If this is the case you don't need aby fancy downloaded programmes just to sign into your Apple account SIgn gn into your Apple/ icloud account on the Apple website via a web browser on your PC (not itunes). The pictures can then be downloaded to the PC from the I cloud link at the top of the webpage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn2233 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 The best way Is download iTunes use that to import to pc remove pictures from folder first then uninstall when done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arm3000gt Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 If you have windows 10 you should be able to type 'phone companion' into the search bar. This should bring up an app that allows you to access the iphone. Worked with my wife's 5s yesterday. Should be no need for itunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Blimey. Just send the photo as an attachment from.yoyr iPhone to your normal email. What's that bloomin paste above copy of war and peace. Lol IPhones don't you just love em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimo22 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 If you google it on the web it will give you the instructions, I did it a couple of weeks ago. Connect with charging cable type "photos" in search bar. Your phone will ask if you want to share photo and ask for phone code and it connects no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimLondon Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Try leef bridge storage thingy, plugs into iPhone transfer all photos onto storage thingy, then plug into pc and transfer onto pc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevo_m Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 You don’t need any apps to get the photos to your PC. connect the phone via the charge lead. Allow the PC to download the drivers (this is the important part) it’ll make a noise when completed, once this is complete just go to my computer and find the phone within the folders, it’ll be set as storage device. Click into the file and there will be another folder (think it’s DMIC or something like that) all your photos will be there. ive had issues with a broken charge lead before, make sure your lead is in good order. But with 5 iPhones in my household this is the only way I’ve backed up my pictures on the hard drive of my PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you email them, the phone gives you the option of "what size" to send the photo in. If you choose small or medium, they won't need resizing to post them on here!

Walker570 Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 I just have a simple mobile, all I need and just plug in the power cable and tap 'allow'. Another reason I don't need an I Phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 I’m assuming your PC isn’t Apple, otherwise it would just do it automatically when within WiFi range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
