I watched technology go from using the pc to store your stuff, to using the cloud. In my opinion, the cloud is NOT where you want your stuff...only as a option not the only place. Too many people I run into have filled up their devices with pictures, videos or music and when that device fails..well needless to say, they lose everything. I make it and always have made it a point to copy or nove all my personal data from my phone and onto an external backup as well as the internal work drive.

This has helped me enormously. Thank you. Q - how do I slow the slideshow down please? They are racing through

Frameo! I really enjoy mine

This is not accurate. Mylio is not free. Costs 10 dollars a month. Bad KZbin video.

If this phone had not cost so much I would immediately go back to my old phone

Chaos is the correct word!

why do we need to delete AAE file?

used Picassa but since then, no idea. I also have a boatload to scan.

I'm with you on using YYYY-MM-DD Description for folders 👍 I've been using YYYY-MM-DD since I started digital photography in the early 2000 but only recently started adding a description so I have a lot of folders to go back and add descriptions too 😮 Do you have any suggestions for organising folders that have jpg and raw files in them (I regularly shoot jpg and raw with my camera but the folders get messy, especially when I start to save post processed images back into the folder)?

THANK YOU RONI

How to move these photo to a thumb drive

Why IS IT that 90% of the people who post videos ALWAYS tell us about their life story, the weather, and anything and everything BUT actually GETTING TO THE FRIGGING POINT! THINK... ABOUT THAT! WE... tune in for the SOLE PURPOSE of WANTING TO KNOW HOW to RESOLVE a PROBLEM! If you cannot provide us with THAT KIND of an "ANSWER" then PLEASE, do NOT post any videos. THE "SOLUTION" to a "PROBLEM" is (ALL) we want the hear about. NOT, anything ELSE! PLEASE and THANK YOU!

I use Photoshop 10 on a WIndows 10 computer, and only for organizing. PS10 will NOT work on my new Windows 11 computer - it crashes the computer! I have copied all my old photos to new computer. Now I need a program to taccess my already self-categorized photos as well as new photos to be added to new computer. I have downloaded free Adobe Bridge, but I don't think it can access already categorized photos . Help! Thanks.

Thank You.

It takes viewers a bit longer than 5 seconds to see how you connect your phone to the PC with just one click.

I dont know if i have not read into the comments far enough, but I require to know more about the finer details of the restoration of lost files from the phone bythe cloud storage. you didnot mention deletion of the photos from th iphone. If you have icloud storage, do you have to delete twice, ie once from the cloud and once from phone. Take a step back and explain how that interlink works

i have 13,000 photos and trying to move to laptop. It is very nerve wracking since the time to transfer is insane as one might expect, but what is really worrisome is that i never trust that the transfer form the iphone to pc will actuallly transfer all photos. it is nearly impossible to verify this quickly since apple puts photos in those monthly folders at download. I was thinking of getting an iexpand flash drive to move pictures from phone to that first. not sure if that would be better. woe is me. thanks for the video.

I just got rid of that feature; I hate that they want to impose us the mobile experience in desktop

I hate with my life windows 11, a lot of useless sh1t... And they can't even make the start bar to move around the screen. FU microsoft!!!!

How well does this work to scan documents and invoices?... I need a scanner to scan thousands of photos but I don't want to have to purchase a separate scanner for my documents, receipts, invoices (typical other household and small business paperwork)....

Exactly what I needed! Thanks for explaining it where it is so easy!

I subscribe to extra storage in iCloud, Google Photos (Google Storage) and Onedrive. Onedrive has been, by far, my favorite for several reasons. 1) Microsoft 365 subscription gives me access to common office apps PLUS up to 5TB storage (1TB per family member) for $9.99/mo. 2) I can configure Onedrive to back up photos from my iPhone and automatically organize them into a Year\Month folder organization. So when I'm looking at photos in Onedrive I can either use the Gallery view showing all the photos together sorted by date OR I can go to My Files and see my camera roll neatly organized by Year\Month. 3) That same structure syncs to my PC or MAC in the same folder structure, Year\Month. 4) Finally, deleting photos on my PC does not delete them on Onedrive adding a level of protection for my backup on Onedrive. Anyhow, a lot of good things with Onedrive that I didn't hear talked about here. Been using it for years and it's been rock solid for me!

Thank you!

My grandma was also Ostrowsky from Kiev they came to America late 20’s

You are making it too complicated and it looks like you skipped steps because you know it so well.

I would not pay for someone to do it but I would definitely pay for consulting.

That's a nice scanner, though I've always preferred a lid style scanner. With a self-fed scanner like your Epson, there is greater potential for jams, because the actual photo is moving through a conveyor system. Pretty cool how you can adjust for different size photos, or Polaroid thickness. Also the protective sheet for fragile photos for newspaper clippings

You need your mic closer to you, to much echo.

Geez, I needed to know what port to plug into on my Iphone

Can I select the photos I want to transfer or do I have to transfer all at once?

Thank you... your video saved me a trip to the store to get a bottle of Dramamine. If Apple keeps "reinventing the wheel", we are going to eventually end up in the Stone Age again. I have had iPhones for 16 years - these dang moving photos were about to be the end of my "Apple Addiction".

Seeing all the great comments on this video I now feel like the village idiot. I am new to an iPhone so things have been a struggle. You have a newer video on transferring pictures from am iPhone to a laptop. I still cant get it. From an earlier video I went to Photos and clicked on Search and did a test using several "to be deleted photos" to see if I could get them to my laptop. It took awhile but i did it somehow. Getting brave I did a search people and dogs, deleting several irrelevant photos. I can't figure how to get these to my laptop. I need to clear up a lot of storage on my phone as I cant upgrade to the latest ios update. I also thought I heard you say in a newer video that iCloud storage only sends thumbnails back to the phone but maintains the originals. Is this correct? iCloud storage is relatively limited. I think your videos are the best I've seen but when you are not a tech type and old to boot, well. I would die if I did something wrong and lost photos of my dogs. HELP. There's no teenage tech types for hire around here. :)

I'm organizing pix on a Windows laptop in File Explorer. Yesterday I downloaded my phone photos from ICloud. I was disappointed to find that the images had extensions of .heic instead of .jpg or .jpeg and I wasn't able to modify them or copy them to a Google doc. What to do?

thank you for responding to my previous question so quickly. It is appreciated. Sorry another question. As you call tell I'm an iphone newbie and not real happy with it. Another question when attaching my phone using the charging it cable it doesnt come up with the window asking if I want to allow. A question pops up in lower right corning of desktop asking me what I want to do with the phone. Please help. I need to get these images transfered over so I can start working with a trial version of some editing software before it expires. Thanks again.

I have to download 11GB of photos to update to the new 11GB update!!! They really want you to make monthly payments for ICloud. No Thanks Apple! I wish you could connect to bluetooth to PC and download pictures.

just found you video. You appear to be quite knowledgeable but found you comments on Live photos extrememly confusing. Do you check it or not? Are one point you say check then you say to turn off. Could you please provide clarification.

We in the press / editorial world (and in my own personal work) use PhotoMechanic. It can be a lot to get your head around at first, but once navigated and you fully understand it all, saves you hours upon hours of work in the long run. Prob not for your hobbyist shooter, but if you go out on multiple jobs a day and shoot thousands of images, I believe nothing comes close to PM.

My Albums photos are also in the regular storage area of photos. So is there a way to transfer to folders and not worry about deleting them?

I’m new

Have Win11 pc and it does just what you showed. I don't want photos put in separate folders by month. Just want them dumped from Iphone into a single folder on Win11 PC. Is that possible?? Thanks in advance for your help

really? the analogy???? That's why you have so few views when you could have gone viral if you just had focus on helping people navigating the update

Yes! The new photo app is terrible! Thinking about ditching my iPhone!

completely crap update. I wish I can go back to iOS 17.

Well said. Yes, the updated Apple Photos app in iPhone was a disaster. Your video helped me study and correct this ugly situation. Thank you! 😄

Molly You are a lifesaver! With all these convoluted settings apple should provide a physical instruction manual for these hidden pot holes

When I open the photos app my phone does not show the options on the screen i.e. Library, For You, Albums, Search. All that is showing is up down arrows, Years, Months, All . Hence I do not have any photos in albums.

I have approx 75000 photos in my iCloud right now (+ heaps of videos too!) - I have iCloud sync switched off as needed the space to update my phone software. Can I skip turning my iPhone iCloud sync back on (which will fill my phone again!) and save photos straight from iCloud directly to this Icapture app you’ve shared on my MacBook?

How do you alphabetize the albums that you've named? I used to be able to do that so I can find an album easy but now I can't. Thank you!

You suggested putting all photos into a 'folder' , as in moving them to a document folder? I am confused by the word folder in regards to this process. but i do like the idea of this Folder being backed up when I do my monthly laptop backups. thanks.

Thank you sister
