How do I get photos off my Apple iPhone?

I just upgraded my G5 mac to the latest Leopard software and am leery about syncing my iPhone with my computer because I'm afraid I'll lose data. However, I really need to get the photos off the phone and don't want to email them to myself, one by one. Your suggestion?


Dave's Answer:

I'm really glad you're running Leopard, aka Mac OS X 10.5, actually, because there's one simple change that Apple's made to the way the phone interacts with the Mac that's a huge boon for those of us that actually take pics with the iPhone!

Plug in your phone, and even if you don't want to sync it with your iTunes software you'll find that if there are photos on the phone that Image Capture can now see 'em and grab them for you:

Mac OS X: Leopard: Image Capture lets you get photos off your iPhone

What I've done is set up a new 'iPhone Pictures" folder in my Pictures directory (instead of the default "Pictures, Movies and Music folders", choose "Other..." then navigate to your Pictures directory and click "New Folder" on the lower left).

Click on "Download All" and you've just accomplished the world's easiest cellphone photo sync on your new Macintosh!

If you are running an earlier version of Mac OS X, then I suggest that you let iPhoto do the work: start that up before you plug in your phone and it should see the phone and offer you the opportunity to download your pictures into an iPhoto "roll".

You can use iPhoto to get the pictures off the phone.

I understand where your fear is coming from. If you do a restore on the phone, you will lose any pictures you haven't imported yet. It should really warn you about that specifically because most people don't consider that they have any valuable data on an iPod that didn't come from their computer, so it is always "safe" to do the restore. This changes with the iPhone because of the camera. (It also changes a little bit with games on the 5G iPod because there is the potential to lose your high score data, but most people care about their photos a lot more than their high score from a game.)

How getting the photos off my iphone for WindowsXP or Vista?

Posted by: Gregg at November 5, 2007 3:10 PM

I discovered the answer to the above question. When you plug the iPhone into a Windows computer, it will show up in Windows Explorer as a disk drive. The only documents that will show up in Windows Explorer within the iPhone will be the "Camera Roll" photos that were taken with the iPhone. You can just drag them into a folder on the computer.

Hello is there way i can get the pictures from the iphone to the computer , not the ones in camera roll??

Posted by: OMar at November 14, 2007 10:11 AM

could someone please post an answer to the question above me, how can we get the photos off the iphone that are not in the camera roll(for instance a bunch of iphoto albums that are on the iphone but got deleted from the computer) please, thanks

Posted by: hunter at December 29, 2007 11:39 AM

I too want to know how to get my pictures that aren't in the camera roll back on my PC. I have 600mb of pics on my iphone that got lost on my Pc and I want them back without having to email them one by one...

Posted by: Lance at January 29, 2008 6:28 AM

Hi Dave,

thanks for all the useful stuff on your site... I've googled problems several times and found answers on your pages. V helpful.

I'm just dropping you a line to be a smart arse... you've got header-paper.jpg (your banner image) displaying 70 pixels wider than the image should be... is that on purpose for the jaggy text styling?

Cheers
Bill

Thank you Dave!
I found you site very simple, usable and usefull.

This aswer was so "obvious" that I really can't find the solution by myself but you gave me the right answer!

Thank you and congrats for your cool site! :-)

I'm also wondering how to get non-iphone-taken pictures off of my iphone. My hard-drive crashed and I lost all of my pictures. Fortunately, some were backed up on my iphone, but I want to get them off of there and on to my new computer -- any way to do it???

Posted by: Lisa at April 30, 2008 11:03 PM

Hi, I used to be able to get pictures from my iPhone by the means above, however for some reason when I plug my iPhone into my computer, I click on my iPhone in my computer to just drag the pictures across and now it won't show any of them up, I'm really frustrated and hate technology as it is, please help :P

Posted by: Kat at May 15, 2008 2:31 AM

I have a very big problem with my iPhone.
I snap and capture images with my iphone camera but it doesn't display on the CAMERA ROLL folder. Does anybody know what i'm supposed to do about it.
Thanks

Posted by: Pete at June 10, 2008 6:09 AM

Pete, it looks like you might need to backup your phone data and "restore" your iPhone. See here:

Good luck, let us know how it goes!

Posted by: Dave Taylor at June 10, 2008 12:37 PM

I just had a similar problem to some of you, in which my hard drive crashed and i lost all my photos. i searched around on how to get them off my iphone and back on to my iphoto, and finally cam across this program. $20. its worth it.

Posted by: geoff nolan at July 20, 2008 12:45 AM

My computer was stolen and I needed to get photos (not in Camera Roll) from my iPhone. I just paid the $20 for the PhoneView program and it worked like a charm.

Thanks

Posted by: Kevin at September 5, 2008 12:56 PM

It is worth noting that Dave's solution also works on Mac OS 10.4.11. Thanks Dave.

Posted by: Niles at October 26, 2008 1:55 PM

I found "Image Capture" (you didn't mention it was an application, so I searched and found it) and tried what you suggested. When I click on download, however, nothing happens. Tried this with just one photo selected, as well as "Select All."

Any suggestions?

Posted by: William Harris at November 7, 2008 9:31 AM

William, I readdressed this topic in another blog post that has more troubleshooting advice too. Hope this helps you out:

Hi!

Iwas browing through the chain on how to download pics from my iphone to my laptop- I saw someone write that when plugged-in to a windows laptop it will show as disk drive and i can simply copy-paste the photos!! For some reason though I am not able to see any additional disk drives when I plug in my phone and dont know what to do- Could you please help/clarify!!??

Posted by: Angie at May 6, 2009 12:42 PM

Thanks for this tip, now do you or anyone else out there know how to retrieve photos that you DIDN'T take on your iPhone from your iPhone. My computer died and I want to get the photos that I had previously sync-ed to my iPhone back onto my new MacBook.

Posted by: marcus at May 10, 2009 10:49 AM

Thank you so much. This app (image capture) is the easiest way ever to get all your pictures from your iphone to computer
it works great... and by the way the apple retail employees don't know ANYTHING!!!

Posted by: Works GREAT at May 14, 2009 5:55 PM

Hello,
I erased the pics in my iphone using image capture, but now, after that when i try to make some photos they don't appear in the camera roll.
WHAT CAN I DO?
(The rest of the Photo albums are still there.)

Thanks,
Ja'el.

Posted by: Jael at June 19, 2009 7:50 AM

I made an app - PhotoToMac - to transfer iPhone camera roll photos to your Mac over WiFi.

I just restored my iPhone back to factory settings and then downloaded my photos from iTunes back onto the iPhone. They are no longer in camera roll and now I cannot delete any photos. How do I delete photos on my iPhone now?

Posted by: Cindy at July 7, 2009 4:08 PM

Thanks, Dave -- this was so super easy and helpful! I just downloaded 1K photos off my phone in about 5 minutes. You're a lifesaver. :)

Dave just upgraded to new iphone and cant get photos off my old iphone. i thought this was not probem but on old iphone i see there is no service up top. i was told i could still get these photos off old iphone to itunes?

Posted by: pete at August 29, 2009 12:55 PM

Pete, plug your phone into your computer and - if you've a Mac - run ImageCapture. It should see all the photos on your old phone and let you copy them onto your computer itself.

Posted by: Dave Taylor at August 30, 2009 10:28 AM

thanks so much for the info; how funny to realize i didn't know how to get pics off my iphone other than email...
muchos gracias

Posted by: courtney beth at September 12, 2009 9:28 PM

I followed the instructions for the XP Camera Wizard, downloaded my camera photos from the camera roll to a folder, now all the pictures show up in the folder, HOWEVER they are no longer in the order (sequence) they were taken. They are now in no order. Its as if the pictures have been downloaded based on some other sort order. Nothing is in sequence. I now have to go in and sort them and rename them to keep the order they were taken. Why did the download do this?

Posted by: Tron at September 17, 2009 10:38 PM

I have noticed a number of people have been trying to get photos OFF their iphone (that AREN'T in "Camera Roll") and onto their computer.

Dave, you suggested "Image Capture" but that seems to only select the photos that are in "Camera Roll" NOT my various Menus/albums of photos on my iphone.

Is there something I need to select in Image Capture so that it will let me copy the other images across?

Posted by: Mel&Nath at October 27, 2009 4:40 AM

I can't believe how easy that was, Dave. Thanks for the brain-dead tutorial!

Cheers!

Posted by: JackM at November 16, 2009 3:07 PM

What if you have a jailbroken iphone and a Mac running Tiger? How can I pull my pictures that I've taken off of my iphone. And no, I've shut off Internet services on my iphone. Too $.

Posted by: Janice at November 27, 2009 7:32 AM

Dude -- thank you so much. Like someone else above I detest iPhoto. Just got the iPhone and was starting to despair of how to get the photos off. (Had expected to be able to see the disk image on desktop and just drag and drop like my digital camera.

Why can't apple just tell us about Image Capture in the iphone manual?!

Cheers!

Posted by: Gray at December 23, 2009 9:59 AM

Hi Dave, I have a problem that others here seem to be having, but if it was answered, I couldn't find it in the comments. I use windows vista, and when I connect my iphone, the camera roll folder doesn't open up automatically as it used to. I've no idea why it stopped doing this. The drive isn't there when I check 'my computer' either. How do I get my camera roll pics into my laptop?? :(

Posted by: SeenZ at December 31, 2009 8:00 PM

Ok, Mine and my wifes iPhones wont even show up in XP with the new iphone versions, yet my bro-inlaws jailbroke phone does still?

Posted by: Chris at January 3, 2010 11:31 AM

I am using xp and I have the same problem as many of the windows users above mention.

I used to be able to get the photos off by just connecting my iphone and camera and picture wizard would ask to transfer the pictures. Last month this just stopped working. I plug in my iphone and the camera wizard doesn't even pop-up anymore. Going through "My Computer" the device will show up but when I right click and choose to export pictures it says the device is busy and could not be completed.

This is a very frustrating issue as I am continuing to use the phone for pictures and they are growing in number quickly with no solution to get them off. Dave, please help us windows users solve this problem.
Thanks

hi i just wondered how do i just delete pictures off the iphone as i have no interest in keeping certain pictures but cant get rid of them i know how to delete the camera roll pictures but not the photo library ones can anyone please help thank you

Posted by: tracey at January 8, 2010 2:59 PM

Justin, I'll work on a new article on how to work with photos on your iPod / iPhone (it's the same process) from Windows iTunes. That's your answer too, Tracey: You can only manage the photos within iTunes, not on the phone. And yes, it's clunky.

Posted by: Dave Taylor at January 9, 2010 9:05 AM

Here is a good article for Windows user. I just save my iphone photo using the suggested method.

Hello!
I was going bananas trying to figure out how to transfer photos from my iphone to my computer (XP, I'm sorry to say). After reading all the above answers I was not getting any nearer a solution.
But I found a way and I hope it will help others:
Go to My Computer. My iphone shows up as a camera. Double click on it. A box named '[Your name] iPhone' comes up with nothing in it. Click on 'Get Pictures from Camera' in the 'Camera Tasks' menu on the upper left. Voila!
The next time I did this the photos automatically uploaded on to my screen as soon as I double clicked on the camera symbol in 'My Computer'. I hope it helps others.
Thanks for a great website by the way...
Pierre

Ok. I know this has been asked a lot, but I have Windows 7 and when my Iphone sync'd, it took all the photos from the computer and copied them onto my Iphone. Is there a way to get those photos off my Iphone. And how do I stop them from getting put on my iphone?

Posted by: April Taylor at February 19, 2010 5:18 PM

hi - im not all that IT minded, however i run a windows laptop and here's how i downloaded my photos from my iphone to my laptop.
1. plugged in my phone to my laptop
2. went to Start, my computer which showed my iphone as a drive, right click on the iphone icon and select 'import pictures' and it imports the lot in one hit onto your laptop.

hope this helps.

Posted by: krys at February 20, 2010 4:21 AM

GOOOTTT ITTTTTT!!!

Download "DiskAid". Go to Media Folder at bottom left. Click Photos. Click Thumbs. Download all .ithmb files to your hardrive (drag and drop). Download "File Juicer." Drag and drop .ithmb files into provided box and win!

Hi--I'm trying to save all the photos on my 3GS camera roll but can't get them to show up on my PC (Windows XP). I connect my iphone and it opens itunes but doesn't show up in my windows explorer. I connected another older version iphone and it showed up in windows explorer right away and I could copy the photos. How can I get my iphone to show up in explorer so I can save my photos.

Posted by: E.G. at March 1, 2010 7:29 PM

Go to the app store and for $1.99 you can get Tunaverse. Download it to your Iphone or Itouch. Then go to your machine, go to Tunaverse.com and download their Cinq application (MAC or PC.) Simple install...and you are all set. You Iphone photos will automatically be sent to your machine and as an added benefit, all of your photos on your machine are always accessible on your Phone or Itouch...every single image...regardless of whether it came from your phone or from a camera to your machine.

Wierd iPhone to XP bug / "feature"

If you're ability to download photos from your iPhone 3g to Microsoft applications has suddenly stopped working, even though your iPhone syncs fine with iTunes, check carefully whether there are any pics in your camera roles that were not created by your iPhone's camera, e.g. email or web downloads.

I lost many hours chasing out this problem and finally got the critical resolution from Apple telephone support.

Prior to removing the "offending" photos from my iPhone role, the symptoms were that my iPhone was only recognized properly by iTunes, while the MS operating system (e.g. Explorer / My Computer, Windows Scanner & Camera Wizard, Picasa, Kodak EasyShare, etc.) would usually fail to see the iPhone when connected. When they did see it as a device, they would all eventually timeout with a failure to connect, or a report that the device was busy.

Very strange behavior, but hopefully this will save a few folks hours of their life and associated frustrations.

Hello everyone,
We just released Photo Transfer, an iPhone app that lets you transfer photos from your iPhone to your computer touch over wifi.

The app it's super simple to use and makes transferring photos ver easy only using a web browser. You can also transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone or from one iPhone to another.

I hope you can check it out and find it useful:

This is a pretty vague guide, really you should have saved yourself the trouble unless you were going to give all the details.

Is image capture an application? Do i have it already, is this the apple way to do it. There is a camera on the iphone.. what is the recommended way to get images to your computer?

Posted by: jez at April 9, 2010 11:35 AM

Jez, well, yes, Image Capture is included on every Mac and has been part of Mac OS X for a long time. Plug in your phone -- which has a camera -- kick off Image Capture and your phone appears, then you can pick and choose which picks to pull off, easy as can be!

Posted by: Dave Taylor at April 9, 2010 6:08 PM

Hi,

I just wanted to say thanks for posting this answer, I had no idea how to get pictures off an iphone without mailing them to yourself either and this helped a lot! Cheers!

Posted by: Josh at April 12, 2010 11:17 AM

I am still frustrated. I took all the emailed photos and everything else that might be objectionable out of my camera role. Sometimes my iphone is recognized, but no photos can be downloaded to my XP because windows says it is busy. Why is this happening? Even if picasa sees the iphone, it wont acquire any photos. it used to work perfectly and automatically as soon as i plugged in my 3G.

Posted by: alan brown at April 20, 2010 3:34 PM

Hi Dave. I have tried to sync my iPhone with the new MacBook 10.6.3 and I have been unsuccessful. Image Capture fails to recognize my phone as a camera. Can you please help me?

Posted by: Gary at April 22, 2010 5:33 PM

Gary, that's an odd one. I'd suggest that you take your iPhone and MacBook into an Apple Store and have one of their team help you out. Let us know what they figure!

Posted by: Dave Taylor at April 22, 2010 10:02 PM

My iPhone is not recognized by my computer, Image Capture, nor iPhoto. It does show up in iTunes though. I searched for months trying to get videos and photos off my iphone... I finally was able to with DiskAid. I used the Mac version, but there a PC one too.

My iphone still isn't recognized by the programs mentioned above, but at least I was able to get the video and photos off. I even tried restoring my iphone, but that still didn't work. I tried deleting the preference files that some other blogs mention doing... I'm going to take my Mac and iPhone to the Apple Store to see what's going on.

Posted by: Tim at April 24, 2010 8:42 AM

Download diskaid. Get the pictures off the iPhone. Clean up all non iPhone camera pictures and you will regain the my computer capability. I've searched for a solution for a week. This is it. Sadly you wont be able to keep the porn you downloaded on the phone but it will be on your pc.

Posted by: Muerte at April 28, 2010 4:00 PM

I plugged in my iPhone to a PC, copied my photos from my iPhone to my PC and recently lost all data on my PC. When I plug my phone back in to copy the pictures again it says there are no pictures on my camera. When i go on my iPhone there are photos there but my Microsoft Picture and Scanner does not seem to pick them up. what can i do in order to get my photos from my iPhone back onto my PC?

Posted by: Tamara at May 5, 2010 4:47 PM

AWESOME - Thanks for this. I don't take many pics w/my iPhone because the camera locks it up. But I do have a few and wanted to pull them down. After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I lost a BUNCH of fotos, through complete incompetence on my part. So thank for this help page, Dave!

Posted by: Mollask at May 7, 2010 3:40 PM

I had an iTouch which I use primarily for contacts and calendar. I synced the iTouch to my Windows Vista HP and all the pictures in my laptop transferred to my iTouch.

I've now bought an iPad and have tried unsuccessfully to get the addresses, photos and calendar to the iPad from the laptop. HELP. All the pictures say is "optimizing", but I really could care less for the pictures. I want the addresses and calendars. HELP. (I don't have Outlook Express in my laptop.)

Posted by: Jo Greene at May 8, 2010 10:22 AM

Steve's solution worked perfectly for me. (Posted by: Steve at March 14, 2010 9:13 PM)

My symptoms: I would connect my iphone and it synced fine with itunes. But in 'My Computer' the device was only recognized as "Mobile Device" instead of "iPhone". And when I opened the mobile device the window was completely blank - no ability to download images at all.

As soon as I deleted 3 images that I had saved from an email into my Camera Roll it completely solved the problem. (Once I disconnected and reconnected the iPhone).

Thanks Steve!

Posted by: Josh at May 16, 2010 9:50 PM

Dave you are a Godsend. I can't believe how simple your solution was for using ImageCapture to download photos off iPhone onto a Mac. Bravo. Simple and worked like a charm.

Thank you so much.

If you're on Windows and at least can see your iPhone in Windows Explorer but cannot see any photos, then make sure to double click on the folder that you see on the right side of Windows Explorer. By doing that two times I eventually reached a folder called "100APPLE" where all my photos were stored. Yes, the order is different and the naming as well, compared to the ones I managed to sync via Itunes earlier.

For some reason the sync process only worked partially for me earlier, but this way I could at least get all my photos (beore now going to upgrade to IOS4 ;)

Posted by: jesper at June 28, 2010 9:45 PM

HI,
I have a similar issue, but the solutions suggested havent helped me. I just upgraded my iPhone to os 4. During the upgrade, it kept freezing during the backup (we're talking several hours). Eventually I gave up figuring that it backed up whenever I plugged it in so I should have a million backup files anyway. (Stupid assumption in hindsight). I went through with the upgrade which required a restore.

I was lucky in that it kept all my apps and contacts and even sms history. However, every single photo from the library and camera role was deleted off the phone. Now I know they must still be in the phone somewhere as itunes tells me I have 54MB of photos. I just cant find them. Photos that were attached to contacts have remained on the contact.

I read a suggestion where you could copy the files in a backup folder to a new folder, convert to jpg and recover photos that way. I did get a few back that way, but not the majority. Interestingly, the backup had photos I had deleted, as well as images I had never downloaded at all such as friends facebook profile shots!!

I would really like to know how to find my lost photos. ANy advice greatly appreciated.

BTW I am running windows XP Pro, and my iphone only shows up as a camera in my computer, no longer as an explorable drive

Thanks

I have a 3G phone and was having similar problems to others posting here.

I used to be able to plug the 3G in and just drag and drog my photos off, as if it was a camera. Then the 3G suddenly didn't show up under My Computer or in Explorer.

Finally found the answer. I had applied a passcode key. When I removed the passcode key, then turned the 3G off and on again, it could now be seen under My Computer and in Explorer. I then successfully copied by photos off.

Hope this helps others with the same problem.

My iphone keeps telling me that its rebuilding/updating my library whenever i try to access my photos or take a pic. I have restored my phone twice but nothings changed.
How can i fix it?

Hi Dave! Thanks a lot for a very useful information. I didn't even know I have Image Capture on my iMac. Have a great one!

Posted by: MARJORIE at August 3, 2010 1:03 AM

Paul and Shelby, I've seen that too with my iPhone. There's a setting somewhere or the other that says "don't optimize my photos", but I have to admit that I can't find it right now. Is it in iPhoto? I'll keep looking around...

Marjorie, sounds like you've wiped your phone clean. Not so good. Do this: plug it into your computer and select "Restore" from iTunes.

Posted by: Dave Taylor at August 3, 2010 7:05 AM

Hi Dave,
Your answer did not help me because I have no idea what image capture is. I am running with snow leopard and have all of the required software. It would be great if you could explain to me step by step, from connecting my iPhone, to downloading the pictures.

Posted by: computerssuck at August 10, 2010 7:22 PM

Dear "computerssuck", you already have an app called Image Capture on your computer. It's in the "Applications" folder. Find it, launch it, then plug in your iPhone...

Posted by: Dave Taylor at August 10, 2010 10:44 PM

Hello Dave,

Our Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Powerpc hard drive crashed ... so needless to say we lost everything! Fortunately, I do have pictures of our baby on my Iphone 3G that I need to export off the phone onto the computer/external hard drive but I am having the most trouble because our system is not supported by the programs I've purchased so far. Do you have any answers?

Posted by: D at August 13, 2010 11:45 AM


OK -- I had the same problem as many of you:

I would plug my 3GS into my Windows Vista machine & while the iPhone icon would show up as drive, it was EMPTY -- where it used to show all my photos in my Camera Roll.

The solution was remarkably simple. Right before I plugged in my iPhone, I had plugged in my seldom-used USB webcam. Once I unplugged the Web cam & re-plugged in my iphone & restarted and closed iTunes -- Voila!

I hope this helps.

Posted by: Steve at August 21, 2010 9:52 PM

Try plugging your phone in when it's unlocked....worked for me. :)

Posted by: Kerb at August 31, 2010 10:04 PM

try plug your iphone to another computer, it should work.

Hello,
MY husband and I have the new Iphone. When I connect mine on my desk top it will automatically ask me if I wish to download the new photes from the phone. When my husband connect his to his hp laptop it will not do that. My desktop will use the autoplay program and do this. His however will not. Is there a way to get his laptop to do the same?

Hi Dave,

I'm running the OSX version 10.6.4

It seems that I don't have that mighty ImageCapture application.. where can I download it from?

Thanks!

Posted by: Fabricio at September 23, 2010 4:29 PM

Fabricio, I'm sure that you do, actually. Look in Applications and in Applications -> Utilities

Posted by: Dave Taylor at September 23, 2010 5:14 PM

Thanks for getting back to me Dave,

It really seems that I don't have the app. Double checked in Utilities folder in Applications, but I don't really have it.

Can I download it somewhere?

Much simpler than using iphoto.

Posted by: adam at October 13, 2010 4:59 PM

When I plug my iPhone 4 into my G5 Mac 10.5.8, I don't see an option allowing me to transfer photos from the iPhone to the Mac (iPhoto). The only option I see is to transfer photos from iPhoto on the Mac to the iPhone...

It is a pain to e-mail a photo from my iPhone to me at home, because I have Wildbllue internet and I am penalized if I download too much in a certain timeframe.

Posted by: Roy at November 11, 2010 7:02 AM

I have a contact in my 3GS Iphone and a picture attached to that contact. I can't seem to find how to save the picture again in my computer since it is just a picture attached to a contact and is no longer on my phone. I need this picture desperately.

Posted by: pat at November 15, 2010 2:00 PM

Just one possible gotcha.. on my phone (3GS) I found that I had to enter my passcode on the phone to unlock it when it was plugged in before the mac would find it. May be obvious to most, but may catch others out. Once I got that, a beautifully simple solution with Image Capture. Thanks!

Posted by: bernard at November 15, 2010 5:54 PM

hi Dave. My imac was stolen by some scum bag(s) last week with all the photos i ever took on it. The only back up is the iphoto folder on iphone. how can I get theses photos back onto the new mac. Would image capture do it without compramising image quality?s in advance

Hi I am having the same issues as most people here, trying to get photos off of my iPhone 4 that are not in camera roll and on to my mac (snow leopard installed).. With my old windows computer you plugged the phone in with iTunes booting up and it shows the phone as an external device and you could remove photos.. Does anyone know how to do this on a mac???

Posted by: Matt at December 27, 2010 2:40 AM

Hi Dave,

Thanks to you, I have used Image Capture for the past year to get photos off my iPhone 3.

However, since the latest update, Image Capture just says "no device connected" whenever I try to get photos. Do you have any idea what I can do now to get photos off the iPhone onto my MacBook (OS X 10.5.8)?

Thanks for any info.

Posted by: pari at December 27, 2010 8:15 PM

Matt, if they're not in your camera roll, you need to use iTunes, but they're already sync'd with your computer (or how did you get them there in the first place?)

Pari, is it possible you have a security lock on your iPhone? If so, you do need to unlock the phone by entering your code after you've plugged it into the computer. Try that, see how it goes.

Posted by: Dave Taylor at December 27, 2010 9:37 PM

I recently got a iPhone 4, and I backed up my old phone to my iTunes, then plugged in my new phone into iTunes and started to submit everything to get everything connected, I looked down at my phone and before I could dissconnect Restore was already complete. It deleted all my pictures and videos, is there anyway I could get those back?

I synced my photos into itunes last night. Have a PC. Can't find picutres. Want to know where they are on my hard drive? Can you help?

Posted by: Lisa at January 11, 2011 9:31 AM

DUUUDES!!!!
Just got the answer, and its really simple.
THIS IS JUST FOR THE WINDOWS USERS:

To transfer pics from the Iphone or Ipod to the pc, just conect the Iphone and let the pc 'think'... in a lil' wile it will pop up a little window asking what do you want to do (you know what Im talking about, the one that pops out everytime you plug a new hardware, or a camera or a sd card), one of the options is ''OPEN FOLDER''... open it, and the only thing you'll see is gonna be your pic roll... Just copy the damn photos to where you want and that's it!

EASY, FAST AND EFFICIENT!

ENJOY!!!!! ;}

Posted by: Amy at January 15, 2011 3:09 PM

Amy, all the phone numbers in your phone's address book should be in the Mac Address Book app once you've sync'd. Not sure where it shows up on a PC, however...

Posted by: Dave Taylor at January 15, 2011 9:00 PM

In Posted by: Steve at March 14, 2010 9:13 PM, Steve mentions that an XP 'bug' prevents your computer from recognizing photos on your iPhone if there are pics in the camera roll not taken by YOUR phone. He was absolutely right! I've tried for two months to get my iPhone pics to copy onto my PC after the "What do you want to do" dialog box just stopped showing up suddenly. It turns out that my son had taken photos with his 3G and sent them to me and I saved them in my camera roll of my 3GS, but as soon as I deleted the pics and did a sync the dialog box reappeared and my photos are now on my computer. Thanks to Steve for his comment and to Dave for providing the forum it was posted on!

I have Windows 7 and was having problems syncing photos to print them. After 3 hours, I did it.

Then I found this app - http://postalpix.com or just search "postalpix" that prints them for you and mails it to your house.

Sweet, why did nobody tell me about this!

For all those that are asking how to transfer photos from iPhone sync folder to PC (not from camera roll!! folder in iPhone): IT CANNOT BE DONE. Here is an answer from apple support:

QUOTE
Pictures that have been synced from your computer to your device cannot be reimported back to your computer. Only pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos can be imported from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device, email them directly from the device to yourself and then copy them from the emails to your computer.

Posted by: Ameda at April 21, 2011 8:14 AM

Before I was able to upload pictures from my 3GS to my Mac using Image Capture. It would automatically open when I synced my iPhone.

Lately, it hasn't worked. (In the past 6 months.) I have been trying to find a free way to retrieve all my pictures (at least the new ones) to my computer.

So far I have only been given the names of numerous apps that I would have to pay for. I don't have iPhoto already installed on my computer. The only other free way I can think of is to e-mail each photo one by one.

I guess the $2.99 app is my only way to go?

Any suggestions? Thank you.

To take photos off iPhone 4 to Windows XP, follow:
1: Plug in iPhone
2: Locate iPhone through MyComputer
3: Right click on iPhone
4: Select 'Get pictures'
5: Follow Wizard and save photos to preferred location.

Lots of playing aroudn but this finally worked for me.

Hi, just a quick question. My girlfriend had her iPhone synced to her PC which has now died a death, but she has pics to get off the phone. Are there any issues with getting the pics from the phone onto my computer, which is a Mac?

I know that there are issues with getting songs off an iPod onto Mac, if the iPod is PC based. Is this the same for getting pics off?

Posted by: Pete at July 18, 2011 3:57 AM

here's my problem
have an iphone 3gs, it was snyc to my imac os x 10.4.11
then i bought an iphone4..so then had to upgrade imac o/s to mac os x leopard 10.5 (now it's 10.5.8) but in the process i lost all old iphone data on the imac.. it's all still on iphone but i want to put back on imac so i can then put onto new iphone 4
been trying to download photos from phone to mac but it keeps freezing near the end (and i have tried deleting pics so there less)i've tried through iphoto and just now with image capture and it froze so i canceled it but the photos seem to have end up in the folder i created as per his advice i got from this page(so cheers for that part) i've been struggling for 6 days so far (technology is no friend of mine)

Posted by: george at August 27, 2011 3:37 PM

it turns out that about 1500 pics were copied out of about 2000 and ended up in the folder but about 500 were still no were but on iphone3gs

Posted by: george at August 28, 2011 9:11 AM

My Iphone 4 says it is in recovery mode and needs to be restored, but I have some recent photos I haven't transferred to my computer yet - do you know if there is any way of getting them off the phone before I restore the factory settings? I will be heartbroken to lose the photos completely. Will they be on my sim card if I take that out before I restore?

Posted by: Kathryn at August 30, 2011 3:48 PM

Hello! I have an iPhone 3G (that I am ready to recycle) but I can't get ALL of the pictures downloaded to my macbook air. I am using image capture and I have almost 2000 pictures, but when it gets to 368 it stalls and won't go any further. I have gone thru to make sure all the photos in my camera roll were taken from my iphone and deleted those that were texted to me. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you!

Posted by: Gretchen at October 26, 2011 12:15 PM

Gretchen, hmm, here's what I suggest: set the check box on the lower left of Image Capture to "delete after download", then choose the images 25-50 at a time. It might just get cranky about thousands of images, but if you copy and delete 100 at a time, say, you should be able to get them all, though it's a bit tedious. Good luck!

Posted by: Dave Taylor at October 26, 2011 2:18 PM

Thanks Steve at March 14, 2010 9:13 PM!! I only had to delete ONE offending photo. Then my phone showed up as a camera in Computer on Windows 7. The transfer was easy from there following others suggestions. Thank you so much!!!

app store on my iPhone3GS by mistake got deleted. Can you tell me how to restore this from itunes. Also i have a doubt that when syncing with iTunes whether iphone contents will be backed up to PC or what ever is backedup in PC will come back to iPhone. - with regards - Balaraju

Posted by: balaraju at November 6, 2011 1:28 AM

Balaraju, the only way I can imagine that you successfully deleted a core app like the App Store on your iPhone is if you've jailbroken the phone and aren't running the stock iOS. In that case, I'm afraid I can't help you out and you're on your own. Good luck.

Posted by: Dave Taylor at November 6, 2011 11:13 AM

Hi there,
I have an issue that I'm not able to find information on for fixing. I had a year's worth of pictures in my Camera Roll and finally imported everything with Windows Explorer. The pictures that import are removed but there are still about 2/3 a year of pictures on the phone that will not delete after the import is completed (I have checked the box to have them deleted after import.) I have an iPhone 4 and unfortunately use Windows Vista. How do I get these pictures off? Do I have to delete the multiple thousands of pictures one by one off of the phone?

Posted by: Deidre at November 13, 2011 9:05 PM

Thank you so much, your advice helped me a lot, I am kind of lazy in exploring my Mac in the matter of programs unless I need smth. Now I know ImageCapture - so cool and good luck!

HELP! I'm trying to download the photos on my iPhone 3GS to My Dell running XP. I've looked through the questions and responses here and can't find a solution to my situation, which is that although I have the iPhone plugged in to the USB port, its not showing up in Windows Explorer. When I plug it in, the computer beeps, and so does the phone. But the only new drive that shows is is Local Disk (V:) which says "Access is Denied"...

Posted by: jordan at November 27, 2011 3:09 AM

Rachel, sounds like you might have the wrong driver installed on your PC, so something else is seeing the phone when plugged in. Does it pop up a window "new device: default action?" still?

Jordan, sounds like you're asking me how to find and copy a video from your iPhone onto your computer? If so, Image Copy can do that too. Simply click on the "size" column to have everything sorted large-to-small, then click the video images (they're '.MOV' files, if I remember correctly), specify where you want them copied in the pop-up on the bottom, and click "Copy Selected..."

Hi Dave,

Nice tip, thank you so much.
I really hate iTunes sync- it usually deletes everything on the phone.
Maybe I have missed something but I wonder why the left out the choice of which way the sync will go in iTunes? Really frustrating, I think.
Thanks again.
Cheers

my iPhone 4S made a new camera roll album by itself after I downloaded some photos through Image Capture, and placed all previous ones in an album with a date on it. Now I can't get photos from that album from either Preview or Image Capture. Any idea how can I either transfer them to the camera roll album or at least download them? May I add how mind boggled I am to discover that 4 (almost 5) generations into it, all Apple could think of including on the photo manage option in iTunes, is how to bring photos ONTO the phone instead of off it. How can that be? Is that because of some deal they have with makers of a program that does that?

Posted by: Alessandro at January 17, 2012 7:51 AM

Thank you that was very helpful. I never thought just to open iPhoto on my MacBook Pro.

Thanks so much for your technical advice. I don't really use sync, cause I don't like it. I've had some trouble downloading images from my iPhone to my PC. You just gave me a great alternative solution, thanks again!
