Importing iphone pictures to PC

[mike9009]

I dislike iPhone!

My wife has an iPhone SE and the memory is maxed out (why can I not have an SD slot in an iPhone - rhetorical question)

I have tried to back up the photos to two PCs so that she can start deleting stuff off the phone.

On both PCs using the photo App, the import hangs after 318 items of almost 2500 items.

It really pisses me off....

Why can I not just see the items and copy them over????


Aaarrrggghhhhh!

Pay the 80p a month to get more iCloud storage, it can take photos off your phone automatically but make it look like they’re all there. It’s neat.

Right, this is where I get conflict with my wife. She loves iPhone but does not trust the cloud. I will have a little look at it all though....

Thanks

Thanks for the helpful comments.

Managed to do it all manually, using file explorer and date created by search function to copy off into separate date folders. All done and backed up. What a PITA Apple is in the way it stores the photos and videos!!

Umm, thanks, that is what I did, but also added another sort filter by date created. Then I could copy the photos and movies in bite-size chunk into separate folders on my PC.
