How do I transfer pictures and videos from iPhone to Windows 7?
Posted by David Kirk in Microsoft Windows 7
Win 7 typically will detect when an iPhone is connected to the computer and will walk the user through the transfer steps through autoplay. However, there is a manual way to copy the files as well.
When Windows 7 notices that you have plugged in your iPhone, a wizard will appear that helps you with your transfer. This is part of the autoplay mechanism of windows that many people do not like. This tutorial describes moving images and videos from your iPhone to your Win 7 box without autoplay.
1. Connect your iPhone
2. Go to Computer from your start menu
3. Your iPhone should appear as a device. Right-click on the iPhone section and select Import pictures and videos
