Can i use the method in Vista to transfer iPhone pictures?
I hope so, b/c Windows 7 and Windows Vista interface is very much similar and this picture importing method will be same.
You can transfer pictures in Vista and Windows 7 same method
You ever place very nice step to step guidance tutorials.
Am running Windows 7 with iPhone 3GS connected directly to USB on computer (I can also sync with hub with iTunes; would prefer to use hub).
I followed the above. When I connect directly w/o hub, iPhone does not appear under My Computer. System pop-up says Win7 says it needs to install a device driver. Then it attempts and fails do to so. It tells me to contact the device manufacturer. That’s Apple and iTunes, which is installed, updated, and by nature doesn’t import photos from an iPhone. >:( Help!!!
Im having the same issue. Can anyone please help?
Hi,
When i first time tried i got the same iphone device driver error then i unplugged the iPhone and plugged again and its working and i have successfully transferred my pictures. Try this!
unplugging and pluging in again worked for me – the iphone finally showing up on My Computer.
Such a simple thing – I should have thought of myself!
Thanks
I’m having this same issue. The iPhone is properly installed and syncs with iTunes, however it won’t show up in My Computer. I’ve switched USB ports like others have tried and still no worky! Please help.
Try this:
- Connect your iPhone with computer using data cable.
- Open Device Manager and find your device.
- Right click on it and select uninstall.
- Wait a moment to refresh it.
- Unplug your iPhone from computer and plug it again.
- Windows will reinstall its drivers, i hope this will work.
Finally got it to work. I had to actually launch the Camera App on the iPhone in order for Windows to recognize the device as a camera I could copy pictures from.
Thanks so much! I tried so many methods and this one works for me! Thanks for the enlightenment! (:
Thanks so much! I really wanted to back my photos up and couldn’t believe there wasn’t a simplier iTunes way to do this.
Cheers mate, worked a charm!
Thanks so much!!!!! THIS finally worked and now my Iphone imported the pictures!
happy heart!
GAAH!!! this is not working for meee
im depressed npw :/
Do you have installation rights on your Windows 7 computer, Make sure you are logged in as an Administrator or have admin rights.

Pictures transfer is really easy, Thanks.
I like this and you describe this method to copy iPhone pictures very easily I am very excited to see this, i will try it.
i transferred my pictures from iPhone to PC
If you can’t import photos from your iPhone to your computer (whether Mac of PC), you might want to check to see if you have any photos in the camera roll on your iPhone that did not originate from the iPhone camera (i.e. someone emailed you, taken on another camera, received from your computer, copied from the internet, etc.). If you do then Apple disables your ability to import or sync ANY photos contained on your iPhone until the non-originating photos are removed from the iPhone camera roll. The only work around is to email those non-originating pictures to yourself and then delete them to re-enable your ability to import/sync the remaining photos. I know it’s a pain. Of course you could let Apple know how unsatisfactory this is at: apple.com/feedback
wow wow wow …… wt a brilliant clue is that !!!!!!
thanks sooo much for this. finally i found the solution for ma problem.
tx tx tx
leaving a comment to let you know that this is great advice and solved my problem! thanks a lot!
thanks very much for your sound advise plus helpful clue!,i was getting to the point giving it up, when i saw your comment, so i deleted a couple of pics i had downloaded, and it worked like a charm. thanks a bunch
How can I tell what I have taken and what I saved….I can’t get my computer to recognize my iphone as a camera and have like 300 pictures I would like to uplaod. What do I do?? Please help! Thanks
After successfully importing my photos from the iPhone, iTunes no longer detects my iPhone as a device! Please help.
Make sure the following 2 services are running in the Task Manager under services tab.
AppleMobileDevice
iPod Service
If both services are running then also check replies to comment#6 (trickYguY)
Feel free to reply
It isnt working. I cant get it to appear in my computer folder or the window to pop up asking to import. It used to but it doesnt anymore. I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, I followed all the steps. It wont work.
Are you using Windows 7 or any other operating system?
Check out other comments for solution.
I have tried this option but it do not transfer the HD videos from the iPhone 4 to the computer (Windows). My video is even under 10 minutes.
I want to copy my picture from iphone to my pc using win7 but its copying only the pictures from Camera roll folder, how about the other folder, how can i copy pictures from other folders to my computer.. does any one knows about it ?
That is accually the photos not the “Pictures” Pictures and Photos are different. and i want to know how to get your Pictures from Iphone to my pc. Photos is no Problem but Pictures are. help me
I am having the same problem as you, I can get my photos onto my computer but can’t get the pictures. Did you ever figure out how to do this?
Brams,
Iam having the same problem tranferring pictures from my iphone 4 to my computer HP/PC with windows 7 64bit. I saw the pictures on the computer but they disappeared! Looked everywhere for them!
Hi,
I used to be able to plug my Iphone 3GS into my pc and laptop and it used to think it was a CAMERA, then I could open the pics/videos and copy them to my desktop or whatever.
A few months ago I noticed my Iphone stopped showing up. Itunes could still find it, but windows could NOT. I’m not sure what changed a few months ago, I have a feeling it was a Itunes update. I have a feeling APPLE is being dumb and not allowing you to easily transfer files you own (they tend to do that)
If I am wrong, and someone knows a way to fix this problem, I would grately appreciate an email response to my problem.
This method is still working with all iPhone models and also no problem with latest iTunes.
You can try one of this trick:
Try to plug in your iPhone in different USB port.
See my reply to comment# 5 and 12 as well.
how do you do the reverse, transferring photos from your pc pictures file to the iphone4? i’ll appreciate any info. i just got my iphone4. if it’s not able to do that, i’m not keeping it. thanks

I have a different problem……when I start an import, my PC isn’t seeing ALL of the photos in my Camera Roll – it’s skipping over approximately 60 photos. Wouldn’t you know it, most of these are from a vacation and are specifically the photos I wanted to import! I tried to re-import, thinking my PC would simply pick up everything (warning me about duplicates, etc.), but each time I try to import, it “sees” fewer and fewer of the 250+ photos on my phone. Any suggestions? Thanks for all of the information above, it was really helpful and got me this far along, at least!
soooooooooooo helpful thank u so much!!!
thankyou, i had problems at 1st but i changed a few settings i think under device manager and all of a sudden the iphone device icon appeared all photos are now safe on my pc thankyou for your help
Thanks. This worked perfectly through My Computer.
I have uninstalled the driver and reinstalled it and am still not getting auto-play or iphone appearing on ‘computer’
any suggestions on what to do next?
ignore the above comment, i opened the cam app the plugged it in and auto play worked!!!
This was very helpful – thanks! I transferred all my pics to the computer. Now, next time I hook it up to do that, will it transfer all of them again? or will there be an option to just transfer new photos taken since the last time I imported? Thanks again.
Hi everyone,
these instructions are nice & clear … BUT I’m not able to complete step 2 as I can’t see my phone in the Windows “Portable Devices” section – it’s just not there.
(screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/3ZSorxE1tcvu)
If anyone has any other suggestion I’d be most grateful!
Until recently, as soon I plugged in my phone, it would transfer my photos – but something changed (no idea what!) and that stopped a few weeks back.
thanks in advance,
Tracey
Thank you SO MUCH I feel like such a dope for not having
figured that out already, very sweet. Thanks Again

What if there is no portable device section or iPhone icon?
While uploading first picture file from PC (windows7)to iphone4, I had no problem but when I loaded the second picture file, it overwrites the first file. Tried many times each time the second file overwrites the exsisting file in the iphone 4. Any one, please help with solution!!
thanks
See comments blow to solve iPhone driver issues.
best instructions ever!
I get an error message saying there are no photos or videos on my iPhone. I wonder if it’s a Windows 7 problem because sometimes it will see the pictures, sometimes it won’t. Very annoying.
i experience the same problem as well!! its very very annoying and started to mess my college work !!
Hi,
Were you able to solve this problem? I’m having the same problem now and tried different ways, still can’t solve it
Thanks!
thanks for the thoughtful, laid-out step-by-step guidance!
I downloaded pics beautifully, from my iphone 4, saw them on my computer screen, went to home, desktop came back to my pics, nothing there! went to Start to Computer, double clicked on icon for iphone goes to memory left. When I went back to download again, it said I had no new pics to download. How can I find my pics??????
I FOUND MY PICTURES THEY WERE IN AN UNMARKED FOLDER AND I JUST OVER LOOKED THEM, THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOWNLOADING WERE EXCELLENT, I JUST HAD MY HEAD UP MY A– AND I PANICED TRYING TO LOOK FOR THEM!!!!! SORRY!!!! ALL MY PICTURES TRANSFERRED, ONES SENT THROUGH TEXTING AND ONES I HAD TAKEN A PICTURE OF AN OLD PIC. I FEEL GREAT! NOW I HAVE BACKUP FOR MY PHONE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
I received some photos taken by a friend via e-mail, they were taken on an iphone but I have a PC Windows 7. How do I open them?
Thanks, this was SO easy! The Apple instructions didn’t make any sense and I was about to give up but yours did the trick brilliantly
Thanks for the help!
My autoplay isn’t popping up and my iphone isn’t showing up in the computer section. Please help, what do I do from here?
i can’t “IMPORT” photos from my iphone 3gs into my PC !! it sync, but I’m unable to take the photos.. HELP :’( thank you~~
This helped thanks you!!!
thnks…..
Thanks, it helped me, it was really easy and I could have tried it myself by plugging in the iphone wire to the pc, but it seems we have a hang of google now and we have stopped trying ourselves.
Thanks for the tutorial. They should have had this facility in iTunes when the phone syncs
When I first got my iphone 4 a yr ago, I could click on the pix I wanted to import from phone to pc…so if i just wanted 2 pix for example I could do this. However, lately I dont have the option, all the pix get imported sometimes theres over 200 pix….its really annoying, how can i change this back to the way it was?? tia

Hi,
I am able to transfer my pics from my iPhone to my computer and see them without a problem. My problem is that some of the pictures that I took downloaded sideways or completely upside down for whatever reason. I am able to turn them to view them using the arrows, however, when I try to save the pictures upright, I get a message saying :” Windows photo viewer can’t save the picture because there is a problem with the picture’s file properties”. I have tried searching for ways to fix this problem and have had no luck so far. Does anyone know?
