Downloading photos from iPhone to PC?

The instructions from Apple on how to download photos from iPhone 4 to a PC (Windows 7) do not work. How does one accomplish this task?

Thanks.

iPhone 4, Windows 7

Do you mean syncing photo's or importing?

Are you using "autoplay"? Is it enabled? How is it not working? Does it fail to complete, do you get a error message? have you tried Start> computer> right click on the iPhone than Import from there? It would be easier to give further instruction if we knew exactly what is "failing"

Autoplay is not enabled that I know of as I have never once seen it and do not know where it would even reside.


When I go to start>computer, there is no iPhone (and yes, it's plugged into the PC with the correct cable in the correct port). I have unplugged and replugged the iPhone several times. When I plug my iPhone into my PC, iTunes pops up. Great, but I need to download photos to my PC. And the Apple instructions do not work. Bizarre.

Hello. Use iTunes to transfer your data, you should take care of your data.

If you want to transfer your iPhone photos to itunes, you should prevent all your iPhone data will be sync.

Because if you use itunes to transfer data to transfer data to your iPhone which is not synced with this itunes library, all the data on this iPhone will be erased.

Well I remember seeing a youtube video saying that it’s because itunes blocked some data when you sync your apple products, so you may try to change some settings to make them unhidden. Unfortunately I don’t have that video right now. but you can google your question “how to transfer photos from iphone to pc” to find that video. Oh and remember to choose "video" tab on the left side to screen the search results, it will help a lot to find the more exact answers.
