Broken screen iPhone, trust computer Hi, I have broken my iPhone and have pictures on the phone that I want to keep. Sadly I only have them on the phone. Trying to connect it to a Mac computer that it has never been connected to. Its an old iPhone 4s. I need to press "Trust" on both computer and phone. But I can not do it on the phone because the screen is dark, broken. But the phone is alive. Find it on "Finder". Can I somehow connect the both devices and continue past this "trust" step? Thanks for any help! best regards Marcus

No. If it were possible to skip, there would be no point in asking.

Not sure if your asking can you remove this iPhone 5c from your Apple ID's trusted devices. If it is, then the answer is yes.
