Easy Way to Get Photos Downloaded Off Phone? (1 Viewer)

[Chadstroma]

I have a couple of pics (1,000+) on my phone that I would like to download on to a computer or photo service like Walgreens. I want to keep digital copies of them.

The only things I have found are tedious or in the case of Walgreens- goes to print copy without saving it in my albums (?)

Is there a trick with the phone or an app that would let you just download all pics?

I have a Samsung Galaxy 5 on AT&T if it matters.

Just connect the phone to the computer with a USB cable abd copy the pictures over?

Download Photos from Google on your phone. Sync all the pictures, then go to photos.google.com and all your pictures will be stored online.

Because it always comes up linking to iTunes. After about 15 minutes of clicking around and unplugging and replugging it in, you might finally give an option to open it in a folder where you can perform this function.

Plug iphone in. Let it connect to itunes, doesnt matter

Open your picture folder on your computer, click the iphone icon in your computer

Select all the photos you want to copy, drag them into the photo folder you want them in. Done

There is a setting in the itunes interface that allows you to unclick (something like) "connect to phone automatically" or maybe "download pics automatically".

I gotta say, I'm SHOCKED to see Jon_mx speaking from a position of authority on something he is absolutely clueless about.

LMAO picturing Jon emailing photos one at a time to himself because he doesn't know how to get around itunes.

1. Have picture viewable on your phone's screen.

2. Put the phone face down on a scanner.

3. Scan your phone.

4. Profit.

LOL This is like someone asking how to make honey-butter. The red arrow cracks me up.

To the best of my knowledge, they never made a Samsung Galaxy 5 iPhone. I could be wrong here.

 

[SeveredHorseHeads]

I buy disposable cameras at the drug store and then take pictures of the pictures on my phone. I don't think there is another way.

Good luck.

 

[Chadstroma]

No.

Is this question that bad?

I played with the phone for a while and could not figure out a way to do it that did not have me checking each individual picture.... which I really do not want to do 1,000+ times.

 

[Chadstroma]

Ok, so hooking the USB cable and downloading.... ok, yea..... duh.

Flickr app has an auto-download option (and free storage of 1 terabyte)

Nice to know! I assume not common knowledge and thus redemption for starting what is apparently a dumb thread.
