Getting photos off an I phone onto a PC

Share this page

Thanks for the tips.

Having got them all transferred I ended up paying $0.99 to MS for an add on to their photo app. It appears to have done the trick. Now I have to sort them out into folders.

My favorite method (with an ANDROID) is to use Dropbox (with a free account)... and any photo or video is automatically uploaded to it when I have a wi-fi connection. I then merely transfer from the Dropbox location to a folder on my desktop.
 
Another Dropbox vote here. We've used it for years to send artwork proofs to clients, files to print houses and generally ferret files around the 'net.
 
I've used Dropbox and find it useful, but as David was asking about transferring thousands of photos, would Dropbox be the tool of choice?

Seems a cable would be a mite more efficient - and doesn't install tentacles into your o/s, and/or move everything through "the cloud"!

A direct connection is almost always more efficient, agreed.

With Dropbox the transfers would likely need to be done in increments. Time consuming.
 
I do use dropbox to transfer large files for work and have also used it to share photos but my wife's phone had way too many photos on it. It took nearly an hour to get them onto the PNY DUO Link
