Transfer iPhone Pictures to PC Windows 7

• Nicely guided iPhone basics

  • I get a message on my computer (windows 7) saying "there are no pictures to import" which is true because they do not appear in Explorer under iphone\internalstorage\DCIM. Are they only in the icloud? This can't be since I have maxed out my storage capacity several times and had to deleter pics/videos.
    HELP Please..

    • I had to choose the import option from a camera, rather than to use Windows Live. It worked - thanks!

      • How did you do that?

    • click on "trust this computer" on your iphone and your problem will be solved.

    • The photos should be on your iPhone, try that again and change another computer. Or you can use 3rd party software like FonePaw iOS Transfer which is a iPhone manage tool. You can transfer not only pictures, but also videos, contacts, messages, notes etc between iOS devices and computer.

• Why don't you access iPhone pictures from my computer

  • Yes, you can access iPhone pictures by opening My Computer and then double click on iPhone device icon

    • Thanks fro helping to copy pics to computer

    • hi, i tried all of this but i keep getting a message that no new pictures from this device..the thing is i have never transferred any pic from my iphone 4s to the pc, what to do

      • If you are getting this message "No new videos or pictures were found on this device"

        Try this:
        Disable your password lock on your apple device, once you disable password from device then reconnect your device with computer and try to import pictures or videos,

        I hope this will work for you or reply me if not, Thanks.

        • I'm getting the following message "Something went wrong and the folder could not be created"

        • I would suggest you to choose a different folder to transfer pictures. Please reply if you able to fix this.

        • Thanks, disabling the "Pass-code Lock" did the trick. :)

        • Worked for me, thanks so much!!

        • helpful

        • Thanks, TrickyGuy! Disabling passcode locked worked. I first had to accept "trust this computer" but then it worked.

        • I do not have a password on my iphone and I am still getting the message “No new videos or pictures were found on this device”

• 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 ;-)

        • Unplugging and replugging into a *different* USB port also helps at times..

          Saty

  • 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 :/

      • I know this is really random and late but this step REALLY REALLY Helped!

      • thank you very much .... you gave the simplest working solution.

    • After making iPhone as camera, I am able to import pictures to my laptop. Great!!!
