How to download photos from my iPhone in the form of files on my computer to keep permanently?

Glance. I had a very difficult time, you try to transfer all my photos on iCloud/iPhone to my computer.

I've had my iPhone for a few years now (I got the 5 c in 2013 and I did not get a new since then), and I went on some trips and have made a lot of memories. So, naturally, I took a lot of pictures. I have about 2200 photos in my iCloud and I received an email telling me that I'll be running out of storage quickly, which makes sense. I want to erase the photos from iCloud to free up storage space, but I don't want to lose my pictures.

I tried manually download them all from the website of iCloud as files on my computer, which was extremely tedious, because there is no button 'select all'... but my computer started to panic in the process and I only got 303 of them downloaded. I tried to download an app to transfer everything, but it didn't work. I have the option in the Photos app on my computer to save the original photos on my Macbook, but it doesn't work how I expect of him, it is also synced my iPhone: if I remove it from the phone, it deletes it on my computer.

I really want a permanent solution. It would be a pity to lose two years of memories, simply because technology is stupid. What I need, it's to be a way to download my iPhone to my computer photos so I can erase my iCloud stuff but be able to still have my photos as files on the real computer. Is there a way to do this?

I think the easiest way would be to plug your iPhone on Mac and use Image Capture to transfer in the Photos App. You could also use iCloud photo library and set it to keep the originals on your computer and optimize the storage on your phone, but it looks like you would have to pay for more storage for this iCloud as a viable option for you.

  • I can't download photos from my iphone to my PC.

    I can't download photos from my iphone to my PC. The PC recognize itunes and syncing with the iphone. However, the pc does not recognize the iphone as an external device (i.e. the camera).  Therefore, I don't see the iphone under the computer as a device options. Also, I checked the autoload settings and they are correct, but the PC does not always recognize nor does automatically load the Iphone. I spoke with the support technique apple and they said this isn't a problem with the iphone, but it is rather a problem with Microsoft. can you help me please?

    Hi Byron R.

    Thank you for using Microsoft answers Forums!

    1. were you able to download photos from Iphone earlier?

    2 recent changes on your computer?

    3. are you any error when uploading pictures?

    You can try this method.

    If you click Start and in the AutoPlay to start search type and then should see AutoPlay fill under programs select auto play.

    Once in Auto play scroll devices and see if you see your Iphone within devices click the menu drop down and set to import pictures using windows then click ok and then you plug the Iphone and see if it allows you to import.

    Also if you want to ask you what measures you take whenever you plug your Iphone just select "ask me every time" based on the Auto play.

    The Iphone will not transfer pictures to your computer if the device is locked and you are using an access code. If you want to transfer photos, simply unlock (Slide to unlock and enter the access code), your device to transfer photos.

    Note: Connect Iphone to your computer in unlocked mode.

  • How to remove photos from my iPhone without deleting icloud photo library?

    My iPhone is full and I wanted to remove some photo to release some spaceso I supported the up to iCloud and I started to remove photos. ***? They are endangered to iCloud! Now, they're just gone. It's crazy! Image capture you can import to everywhere, but the function "delete after importing" seems to have disappeared. I'm sure this question has been beat to death, but how you remove photos from their phone without removing them from their photo library iCloud?

    So frustrating.

    Does anyone know of a solution to this?

    iCloud is a synchronization system, not just external storage.  Once you turn on photo library all you do with a photo is on ALL of your devices (including remove them).  See the last section in this article on how to recover pictures that you inadvertently deleted:

  • How to download photos from Curve 8330 BlackBerry Smartphones?

    Hello

    I am a new user and do not know how to download pictures from a Curve 8330.  Can anyone say about that?  Thank you very much.

    IrwinII,

    The mass storage mode only works with a media card on the curve. I think that the "BOLD" is the only phone that can have the internal reader works in mass storage mode.

    You can use Roxio Media Manager (download Blackberry Desktop Manager with Media Manager if you don't have it). See this link for a demo.

  • Why not show the photos from my iPhone to the top in iPhoto?

    I recently started using iCloud for storing photos.  Pictures taken from my iPhone 6 appear in iCloud without problem, but they are never on iPhoto (MacBook Pro).  I sync my iPhone to get photos imported into iPhoto.  The settings on my phone and computer are supposed to be correct.  Any ideas on what's going on?

    iCloud library does not work with iPhoto. It syncs photos of Yosemite OS X 10.10.3 or later version.

  • Is there a way to download photos from my iPhone to my photo library iCloud without having my iCloud all that downloaded on my iPhone photo library?

    I just got a new iPhone 7. I was able to import all of my photos and videos of my previous iPhone 6 on my photo library to iCloud. I would like to import the photos that I take on my current iPhone to my previous library without going through my library iCloud just downloaded on my current iPhone. I would just like to see all on my Mac. Is it possible that it is possible? Thank you.

    I'm not entirely sure or understand what you're asking.  If you import pictures from your device, it is stored in iCloud photo library.

    If you're wondering if it is possible to store photos only in iCloud, and not the on your device, the answer would be no, because iCloud is not traditional storage cloud based, i.e. it is a sync/mirroring system, allowing you to synchronize all your photos on all of your devices and make them available instantly , or almost immediately in some cases.

    I can not send pictures from my iPhone to my computer (Vista) I plug the phone into the USB port, the phone turns on and shows the fully charged battery, I hear a sound in the computer as '' dada '' but I can't find the pictures.  When I downloaded before I think that the file open automatically.  I have uninstalled several files from my computer since the last photo upload.

  • How to remove photos from my iPhone 6 s, without deleting icloud photo library on all my devices with ios 9.2.1?

    I just updated my iPhone 6s ios 9.2.1 and whenever I try to remove photos from the iPhone library, it is said that they will remove the iCloud photo library on all devices. I don't want to do, I want to save the photos on my computer, but free up space on my phone. Help!

    If you have iCloud library enabled in the iPhone then any photo that you delete from your phone is also removed to iCloud and all devices connected to this library to iCloud. It is not a setting or an option where you can change this while continuing to use iCloud photo library. You can reduce the space required on the phone by activating the settings > iCloud > Photos > optimize iPhone storage. You can suggest that Apple offers more options via: http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

  • Cannot see or download photos from my iphone to my MacBook

    When I plug my iPhone into my MacBook I can't put new photos on my Mac because he doesn't 'see' it in Photos.  He used to see and I would like to transfer photos.  It's not just my phone but all my other phones and iTouch.  She also does not come to the top in the Finder. All of the suggestions.

    She also does not come to the top in the Finder.

    The iPhone is not supposed to show in Finder, but you should be able to see Photos or image Capture.

    What version of Mac OS X you have installed? The last El Capitan Mac OS X 10.11.2 update is supposed to fix a bug that prevented the photos from the iPhone appears in Photos. If you are still running Mac OS X 10.11.1, consider upgrade to Mac OS X 10.11.2.

    If this isn't the problem - have you confirmed on the iPhone that it can trust the Mac?  If this is not the case, start iTunes after connecting the iPhone to USB. Unlock iPhone and when prompted confirm again that the Mac can be trusted.
