Where re the photos on your iPhone? Are you using iCloud Photo Library not?
And what kind of computer do you have? A Mac? A Windows system?
- If you are not using iCloud Photo Library, you can simply connect your iPhone to your computer by USB,. Then download your videos and photos just like from a connected camera.
- if you are using iCloud Photo Library, it will depend on your settings on your iPhone, what to do.
- If you are using "Optimize Storage" on your iPhone, download your photos directly from iCloud, because the photos are not necessarily on your iPhone. Open the page www.icloud.com and sign in with your AppleID. Then open the Photos.app on that page and download all photos and videos to your computer.
- If you are not using "Optimize Storage", your photos are in your Camera Roll and you can download them using a USB connection.
So, how are you storing the photos on your iPhone?
