Good times. I messed with being an android guy with a mac computer for SO long and finally just broke down and got an older iPhone to test the waters and am now converted. Kinda glad I no longer use windows primarily now...but if I go back...at least I have this knowledge now. Good tutorial!
@@ChristianMartinez-j7d yes, the folders are date based and they go into the corresponding folder. I can't say if that's based on the sync timing or file creation date, because everything I transferred was from the same month, but I believe it's based on the sync timing, because those car images were pretty old.
It will simply sign a file on your iPhone . It cannot be edited or deleted on the iPhone. I deleted files from my PC and thought I had them on my iPhone, but they were all gone. I lost my important files. A misleading video. Edit the video, please.
this is sync not transfer, for those dont know yet, this will sync whatever in your chosen folder to your phone. You cant control your photos from the phone.
@@yashphatak2117 so to have control on those photos, you must dupplicate them first and then you go to the same app he used and uncheck the folders and then sync
I did this method. What I found was that created a subfolder worked if you wanted selected folders inside the main folder or if you want all that folder, click all folders. Furthermore, the pictures wont end up in your main gallery, they will end up in a subfolder in your photo gallery on your phone, scroll down a bit under the tab called albums.
the last iphone i actually owned was the iphone 4, then went and stuck with android up until the galaxy s23 ultra. i just now thought i would try switching back with an iphone 16 pro max. and here i am, just trying to figure out a simple way to copy files to the iphone's storage and there still isn't an easy solution. buyer's remorse is real. good thing i kept my s23 ultra.
I've been struggling with this for 1+ years now since giving in and deciding to give the iPhone a shot. Certainly the worst mistake on a phone standpoint, for many different reasons.
android is so straightforward and simple i really dont understand why apple cant do it too. (probably just beacuse they want you to pay the 11 dollars a month for apple music.)
i would just use Telegram . but i think most of us are here because we specifically want large files sent between devices . there are 5+GB videos i need to transfer and i would nuke my email storage trying tot do that , Telegram has a file limit unless you pay for the premium services and Web transfers have the same issue . so emails are fine but a much more tedious process if you are trying to do it for free
Incredible video, clear, explanatory, by following all the steps, we get there, I had been struggling to transfer via Google Drive for months, now problem solved, thank you very much !
when i connect my iphone the "encrypt local backup" box is selected even though i have never backed up my device on this computer or on any computer for that matter. When i go to change the encryption password it is asking me to type in my current password. Well i have never created an encryption password. how do i resolve this issue?
Except the Apple Devices program wont transfer everything. I have about 14000 files I need transferred to my phone, but after 600 files it just stops and wont continue despite pulling out the cord and restarting the program. Apple has always made it difficult to sync from Windows to iPhone. With a MacBook it works first try, no issues at all. Edit: As I write this, I'm also trying to sync right now. Told it to use 5 folders with images, a total of 400+ images. The program only transferred 60% of the images and wont sync the rest no matter what I do.
Nice method we learned, I was looking for it long back and you were giving me other way out videos suggestion all no one is tell how to transfer from windows to iPhone.
how do i reverse it, because all of the photos and videos i transferred seem to not work like normal photos because i cant delete them or add them to different folders so i just want it to go back to normal. thing is i transferred all my old photos (7000) and planned to delete all the screenshots and pictures etc that i didn't want anymore but now i can't because they're all stuck on my phone!!!
This is quite annoying, I downloaded the app follow all the steps and now the videos won’t show because they are not compatible because they are MKV files, why is it so complicated.
ive done this and even updated my ios just to test, but it doesnt work for me, when im pluged into pc everything is good and recognized but when i go to select the photos from my pc it shows i have nothing, i tried different files but none of the jpegs from my pc will show up on the devices app on my pc /:
I think I can relate to what you're seeing, maybe. It only shows the folder level in the Apple devices app. Are you looking at the folder selection window or File Explorer? I was expecting to see the folders populated in the Apple devices app, but they weren't. If you do select the right folder, it will sync the media to your phone. That said, as I just found out based on comments here, if you have an image larger than ~1440p (I don't know why that resolution), iOS will downscale images. I tested with a 7800x4800 image, and it took it down to around 2500x1500 😒
Doesn't appear to work if you have iCloud photos enabled. It says to disable it before you can upload photos using the Apple Devices app. Is there another way to transfer files directly? I have a bunch of videos I'd like to import in Apple Photos, however I haven't found an easy way to do this yet.. unless I'm on a MAC and use the Photos app directly.

Great vid but how do i transfer a windows FOLDER that contains birthday pics to my iphone 14. Icloud just wants me to select the pictures within the folder and transfer. I just want to transfer the whole folder vs individual photos. thanks
WHY does Apple not let you transfer back to the iPhone?!? There are SO many things about the iPhone that don't make any sense. Why isn't there a Select All option? for example.
Annnnd... it didn't work anyway. I followed all your steps, it said it was synching on the Apple Devices app and that it completed it, it made me sign in to my phone, and when it was done none of the photos had been moved from the PC folder to the iPhone. I tried the restart and everything.
Apple unlike ms makes numerous tech including macs of which ms pc is competing with so they are just being a business and not making it easier for their competition. Get a mac and you'll see the same happens from ms regarding apple..
Ok but if I do this once and let's say a month later I want to add an extra folder that contains some new pictures from my PC to my iPhone. If I follow the same process it will first delete all the photos I transfered last time just to add this new folder. So this is not practical for me if I want to add new photos ocasionally. Is there a way to do what I want?
it shouldn't delete them, i had videos on my phone and synced from pc, it did not remove the existing photos or video first, only added the photos that were not on the phone
@@shaikhirfan123456789 The only way I found to easily transfer photos is by using a usb type c flash drive, since I have an iphone 15 pro. I directly connect it to iphone and I can copy photos from iphone's photo app to the flash drive or from the flash drive I can select the photos I want and save them to the iphone's photos app. And then connect the flash drive to my pc. It's a pretty trash way but it is the most convenient I have found yet.
I uploaded these photos but to do that I had to disable my OneDrive photos. Doing that means that I can’t access those photos in any other platforms like Snapchat or instagram. While I did get my photos back I can’t access them anywhere else and I can’t delete any of those photos anymore either. Can you help? I had around 1,500 photos because I recently wiped my phone and all photos were gone but saved on pc.
Confirmed. You're right. 😕 Any still image over about 3000x1600 pixels gets downscaled. My images were under that, so they weren't affected, but I tried a 7800x4800 image and it went down to around ~2600x1600.
@@DeployJeremy yep, your method is basically iTunes so it has no problem with video but compresses big size photo, this happens even transferring photo from the iphone to pc via cable. i still haven't managed to find a solution to this problem.
Doesn't work for me but I removed the phone while installing the apple software. Connected phone and software works. Just don't have phone connected while installing software. So in summary sync is the term to use instead of copy.
From the iPhone to a PC? That's where it's easy. To copy files off the iPhone, you just connect it via the lightning or USB-C cable, then from the iPhone "allow" your PC to read its files, at that point your phone will appear as a read-only storage device next to your C:\ drive. Then you find, copy and paste files to your USB drive.
It will simply sign a file on your iPhone . It cannot be edited or deleted on the iPhone. I deleted files from my PC and thought I had them on my iPhone, but they were all gone. I lost my important files. A misleading video. Edit the video, please.
@@Dotkenn that's the easier way. You just connect your iPhone using a USB cable, then on your iPhone "allow" your PC to connect. At that point, if you open File Explorer > My PC > iPhone, you should see it, just like I showed in the beginning of this video
@@DeployJeremy ive been trying to transfer my files for the past 6hours, error after error, this and that, problems everywhere, like you cant even use bluetooth to transfer, apple is horrible, the only real solution im left with is paying to use icloud. Im so switching to android next time im in need of a new phone.
@@Dotkenn Out of curiosity, what version of Windows are you using and is it Intel or Qualcomm? I've heard that once you install either the Apple devices app or iTunes they replace the default storage driver with their own when you connect an iOS device. Is the cable an Apple one and in decent condition? Maybe that is a cause? For me anything Windows 10 and newer without any Apple software will see the iOS device. The cable does need to support data (some just charge), but that's it.
@@DeployJeremy I am using the newest windows 11 24h2, started rolling it out to everyone around 2weeks ago. My issues with apple are as follows: plugging in iphone would sometimes freeze or crash my pc (lol), some folders would show up empty, clicking properties on folders that have pics and vids would show 0B size, you cant use bluetooth to transfer (lol), using photos app to import would always give a different number of files found, im basically being forced to use icloud so I could send all my private sh*t to their sh*tty servers and pay them for the privilege. After an emberassingly long time, I figured out that in "this pc" you can just right click on " iphone storage" and find the option to import pictures and videos, this just loads up all folders, so it fixes everything, properties dont show 0b anymore, all folders are filled up.. The only problem left to figure out is why iphone shows I have 3k pics, but on windows, in properties it shows I have nearly 4k pics, skimming through the folders and sorting by type of file, nothing looks out of the ordinary, theres some aee files which I believe are useless, but theres certainly not enough to make up another 1k files worth.. also on iphone storage, it shows I have 52gbs worth of pics, yet on pc, with the extra 1k files, I come out at 46gbs.. overall its been a horrible experience, enough for me to call dibs on android the next time im in need of a new phone.
@@DeployJeremy in my hours long conquest, I did at one point end up using unofficial third party software, and what was really interesting is how using the app bypassed asking for permission to allow the transfer of files, every time I plug in, iphone would ask whether to allow or not, but everytime I plugged it in with the app running, didnt ask for anything, and it pretty much loaded every single picture and video instantly, like literally instantly, only problem is that the app would incorrectly export only 10files out of the 3k, and then shove me with subscription prices.. How can an app like that do everything so damn well? Really shows you something doesnt it?
This is so bs that I need software to do this, also I tried doing the "Apple Devices" method and it always spits out an error message either error -54 or something else. I just want to transfer the images and not deal with this shit.
@@sillyKit Glad you liked it. There's a lot of nuance with the reboot for drivers to initialize and folder selection for sync, especially if you're patience level is low like mine.
copy Iphone gallery is very ustable in windows 10/11. I tried many times on Iphone 6/8/14pro on USB/USB-C. Similar unstable problems during data copy: iphone disconnecting. Why iTunes is not prepared in this case, it is shamefull ;-/ Why this new software also can not see gallery on the Iphone? ;-/
@@GrizzVRit gives you the choice to remove photos from device when you turn off icloud photos, which means you wont have them in your device but they’ll still be in icloud.
Hello Jeremy I like to ask, if I use this method, do the photos and videos quality decrease or do they stay the exact same quality when I transfer it from my PC to my iPhone?
@@DeployJeremy Hi Jeremy. Thank you for replying back to me and answering my question. Please let me know if anything changes with your new test. I haven't tried this method yet since I don't have a lightning-to-USB cable. But I'll let you know when I do it.
OK, I've tested it. It seems for smaller images like my 1920x1080 images I sync'd in the demo will remain the same size. So, I tested this with a much larger JPG image - a 7680x4800 resolution image. It did in fact downscale it to 2456x1536, which is a massive downscaling in that case. Sorry ☹️
@@DeployJeremy Thank you for getting back to me and letting me know that 1920x1080 photos stay the same quality. But that's sucks that there is a huge downscale for high-resolution photos. I hope Apple fixes this issue and makes transferring photos, videos, and files from PC to iPhone and vice versa easier like what Android does.🤞
First Time using iPhone and WHY THIS SO EXPENSIVE PHONE CAN't DO A SIMPLE TRANSFER FILE from my pc to apple WHY MAKE IT SO COMPLICATED UNLIKE ANDROID THAT YOU JUST PLUG THE CABLE AND COPY PASTE TO FOLDER. I ABSOLUTELY REGRET THIS PURCHASE
I had a totally different experience, mostly negative, trying to follow these steps. I gave up after 45 minutes. This is total BS that one cannot copy a file (jpg) from windows 11 to an ipad (18.1)
@@miked.7245 apple cares about apple users not pc users and I find that OK because pc never cares about mac so why must mac care about pc? It's just returning the favor in the end. If ms was better to mac things would be different from the way I view things.
@ a PC can run almost anything. The reason it has trouble with Mac software is because of Mac. But if you buy a phone that doesn’t allow you to do things then you’re not the smartest. I was given this phone. I absolutely effing hate it. It shows a complete disregard for their customers to not let them do something simple like upload a video easily without downloading iTunes. I finally found a third-party app that lets me do this, but seriously F them for this.
This is insane, this is apple clearly trying to exert complete control over what you can and cannot sync onto your phone. Notice how they fail to mention that the application only does certain file types and does not allow you to copy anything over.
It's not difficult. You're just using pc which is an apple competitor and I don't think you would want to do right by your business competitors now would you?
well one big problem when i sync the photos from windows to iphone is that once i have them in my iphone i no longer can delete them from my iphone.. wich is so dum... i hate apple for things like this.. my photos from my PC moved so much harder then they should and then when i manageto to copy trhem in my phone i am no longer allowed to delete them.. WTF Apple???
I regret ever buying an apple device! In the past I owned a few Apple computers and loved them and yes they were not very compatible with Windows at the time but using a phone as a camera and then not being able to get my data in a simple process to my PC for editing makes this phone pretty useless!
Good times. I messed with being an android guy with a mac computer for SO long and finally just broke down and got an older iPhone to test the waters and am now converted.

Finally, a solution. I'm going to try this before Apple removes Apple Sync. Won't screw with iTunes, don't want to risk destroying my music library.
I'm not a fan of iTunes either. This is the same mechanism and limited, too, as a sync. At least it brings the media to your phone though.
this is sync not transfer, for those dont know yet, this will sync whatever in your chosen folder to your phone. You cant control your photos from the phone.

The only way I found to easily transfer photos is by using a usb type c flash drive, since I have an iphone 15 pro.
I directly connect it to iphone and I can copy photos from iphone's photo app to the flash drive or from the flash drive I can select the photos I want and save them to the iphone's photos app.
And then connect the flash drive to my pc.
It's a pretty trash way but it is the most convenient I have found yet.
Keep itup man W
I uploaded these photos but to do that I had to disable my OneDrive photos. Doing that means that I can’t access those photos in any other platforms like Snapchat or instagram. While I did get my photos back I can’t access them anywhere else and I can’t delete any of those photos anymore either. Can you help? I had around 1,500 photos because I recently wiped my phone and all photos were gone but saved on pc.
your a life saver man! thank you
You forget to mention that photo are gonna get compressed with these method 😅 pretty important
I need to verify this. I don't believe mine were downscaled in this process. The videos definitely are not.
Confirmed. You're right. 😕 Any still image over about 3000x1600 pixels gets downscaled. My images were under that, so they weren't affected, but I tried a 7800x4800 image and it went down to around ~2600x1600.
@@DeployJeremy yep, your method is basically iTunes so it has no problem with video but compresses big size photo, this happens even transferring photo from the iphone to pc via cable. i still haven't managed to find a solution to this problem.
Doesn't work for me but I removed the phone while installing the apple software. Connected phone and software works. Just don't have phone connected while installing software. So in summary sync is the term to use instead of copy.
@@biggfoot52 yeah, I had to reboot my machine. It appears to be that class of driver and service in Windows. 😒
Didnt work, nothing was brought to the phone, would up just putting a few files in the folder I selected. I wound up using email which worked.
how do i copy the whole folder and put it on USB?
From the iPhone to a PC? That's where it's easy. To copy files off the iPhone, you just connect it via the lightning or USB-C cable, then from the iPhone "allow" your PC to read its files, at that point your phone will appear as a read-only storage device next to your C:\ drive. Then you find, copy and paste files to your USB drive.
It will simply sign a file on your iPhone . It cannot be edited or deleted on the iPhone. I deleted files from my PC and thought I had them on my iPhone, but they were all gone. I lost my important files. A misleading video. Edit the video, please.
Thanks ❤❤🎉🎉
thats working but I can't remove the photos I added on my iphone through this technique. Is it normal?
hope not
Ran into this same issue. Did you find a fix?
Any solution mate?
Awsome, thanks
Took a couple tries but it worked.
now how do I do it in reverse? from iphone to windows
@@Dotkenn that's the easier way. You just connect your iPhone using a USB cable, then on your iPhone "allow" your PC to connect. At that point, if you open File Explorer > My PC > iPhone, you should see it, just like I showed in the beginning of this video
@@DeployJeremy ive been trying to transfer my files for the past 6hours, error after error, this and that, problems everywhere, like you cant even use bluetooth to transfer, apple is horrible, the only real solution im left with is paying to use icloud. Im so switching to android next time im in need of a new phone.
@@Dotkenn Out of curiosity, what version of Windows are you using and is it Intel or Qualcomm? I've heard that once you install either the Apple devices app or iTunes they replace the default storage driver with their own when you connect an iOS device. Is the cable an Apple one and in decent condition? Maybe that is a cause? For me anything Windows 10 and newer without any Apple software will see the iOS device. The cable does need to support data (some just charge), but that's it.
@@DeployJeremy I am using the newest windows 11 24h2, started rolling it out to everyone around 2weeks ago. My issues with apple are as follows: plugging in iphone would sometimes freeze or crash my pc (lol), some folders would show up empty, clicking properties on folders that have pics and vids would show 0B size, you cant use bluetooth to transfer (lol), using photos app to import would always give a different number of files found, im basically being forced to use icloud so I could send all my private sh*t to their sh*tty servers and pay them for the privilege. After an emberassingly long time, I figured out that in "this pc" you can just right click on " iphone storage" and find the option to import pictures and videos, this just loads up all folders, so it fixes everything, properties dont show 0b anymore, all folders are filled up.. The only problem left to figure out is why iphone shows I have 3k pics, but on windows, in properties it shows I have nearly 4k pics, skimming through the folders and sorting by type of file, nothing looks out of the ordinary, theres some aee files which I believe are useless, but theres certainly not enough to make up another 1k files worth.. also on iphone storage, it shows I have 52gbs worth of pics, yet on pc, with the extra 1k files, I come out at 46gbs.. overall its been a horrible experience, enough for me to call dibs on android the next time im in need of a new phone.
@@DeployJeremy in my hours long conquest, I did at one point end up using unofficial third party software, and what was really interesting is how using the app bypassed asking for permission to allow the transfer of files, every time I plug in, iphone would ask whether to allow or not, but everytime I plugged it in with the app running, didnt ask for anything, and it pretty much loaded every single picture and video instantly, like literally instantly, only problem is that the app would incorrectly export only 10files out of the 3k, and then shove me with subscription prices.. How can an app like that do everything so damn well? Really shows you something doesnt it?
Thanks Bro, SUBSCRIBED !!!!
hmmm well it seems that now the microsoft store doesnt offer an app called apple devices
I just checked and I see it. Might depend on your location?
@@DeployJeremy Is there anyway you can post it on here?
This is so bs that I need software to do this, also I tried doing the "Apple Devices" method and it always spits out an error message either error -54 or something else. I just want to transfer the images and not deal with this shit.
Me too.
How to delete it i need a tut
Will try 👍
hlo i have an problem
using google drive is best but if you dont have an internet connection you gotta do this
I imported a video onto my phone and now I can't delete it
how do i remove the photos
please i dont want gay yiff permanently stuck on my phone
So amazing ❤
thanks buba
Took 2 minutes to tell me the app ty anyways
@@sillyKit Glad you liked it. There's a lot of nuance with the reboot for drivers to initialize and folder selection for sync, especially if you're patience level is low like mine.
not working for me
copy Iphone gallery is very ustable in windows 10/11. I tried many times on Iphone 6/8/14pro on USB/USB-C. Similar unstable problems during data copy: iphone disconnecting. Why iTunes is not prepared in this case, it is shamefull ;-/ Why this new software also can not see gallery on the Iphone? ;-/
Itunes is jacked up unreliable. This apple devices app is the replacement and yet I still think it BS!
The photos transferred this way cannot be edited or deleted. Guys help me delete these stuffs now.
Did you find any solution?
doesn't work because im using icloud photos?
Turn off your iCloud Photos in settings
@@Joshua-fp1kk nah cuz i need it
@@GrizzVRit gives you the choice to remove photos from device when you turn off icloud photos, which means you wont have them in your device but they’ll still be in icloud.
How do I transfer music to iPhone?
It's the same method. In the Apple Devices app, you just need to select Music on the left and choose your folder to sync. See 4:10
@@DeployJeremymight be better if he used iTunes tbh
@@Leo-hf9wo that's true. I've never been a huge fan of iTunes on Windows. It's good on macOS though
@@DeployJeremy true I just installed it from Microsoft store and it wouldn’t connect to my iPhone for some reason
Hello Jeremy I like to ask, if I use this method, do the photos and videos quality decrease or do they stay the exact same quality when I transfer it from my PC to my iPhone?
I didn't see a downscale with my media, but they were all 1080p or less. I'll try adding a crazy large photo and sync it to see if it's downscaled.
@@DeployJeremy Hi Jeremy. Thank you for replying back to me and answering my question. Please let me know if anything changes with your new test. I haven't tried this method yet since I don't have a lightning-to-USB cable. But I'll let you know when I do it.
OK, I've tested it. It seems for smaller images like my 1920x1080 images I sync'd in the demo will remain the same size. So, I tested this with a much larger JPG image - a 7680x4800 resolution image. It did in fact downscale it to 2456x1536, which is a massive downscaling in that case. Sorry ☹️
@@DeployJeremy Thank you for getting back to me and letting me know that 1920x1080 photos stay the same quality. But that's sucks that there is a huge downscale for high-resolution photos. I hope Apple fixes this issue and makes transferring photos, videos, and files from PC to iPhone and vice versa easier like what Android does.🤞
@@jackfireee I just did this and all my photos are at their original resolution, videos do seem to be at 1080p now.
First Time using iPhone and WHY THIS SO EXPENSIVE PHONE CAN't DO A SIMPLE TRANSFER FILE from my pc to apple WHY MAKE IT SO COMPLICATED UNLIKE ANDROID THAT YOU JUST PLUG THE CABLE AND COPY PASTE TO FOLDER. I ABSOLUTELY REGRET THIS PURCHASE
AGREED
I had a totally different experience, mostly negative, trying to follow these steps. I gave up after 45 minutes. This is total BS that one cannot copy a file (jpg) from windows 11 to an ipad (18.1)
@@chriscoco547 did you reboot your Windows machine after installing the Apple devices app?
I mean im done, it on purpose limits windows users so they buy apple. Going to sell my Iphone and switch to new pixel.

Why must apple care about windows
@@UbuntuPersonNoMint they don’t care about their users is the point. Any android phone transfer files without some getting their goddamn mitts on them
@@miked.7245 apple cares about apple users not pc users and I find that OK because pc never cares about mac so why must mac care about pc? It's just returning the favor in the end. If ms was better to mac things would be different from the way I view things.
@ a PC can run almost anything. The reason it has trouble with Mac software is because of Mac. But if you buy a phone that doesn’t allow you to do things then you’re not the smartest. I was given this phone. I absolutely effing hate it. It shows a complete disregard for their customers to not let them do something simple like upload a video easily without downloading iTunes. I finally found a third-party app that lets me do this, but seriously F them for this.
thank you so much
Thank you
That did not work for me
This is insane, this is apple clearly trying to exert complete control over what you can and cannot sync onto your phone. Notice how they fail to mention that the application only does certain file types and does not allow you to copy anything over.
@@markcrawford9320 agreed. It's really just media files. Android attaches and lets you write to it like a normal USB thumbdrive.
These aren't "files" from the iPhones "files" app 😓😭 . This vid should be titled how to transfer photos and videos from iphone.
why iphone have to make everything's difficult, like only can install app from app-store, whereas my old android can download apk file and install
It's not difficult. You're just using pc which is an apple competitor and I don't think you would want to do right by your business competitors now would you?
well one big problem when i sync the photos from windows to iphone is that once i have them in my iphone i no longer can delete them from my iphone.. wich is so dum... i hate apple for things like this.. my photos from my PC moved so much harder then they should and then when i manageto to copy trhem in my phone i am no longer allowed to delete them.. WTF Apple???
I regret ever buying an apple device!
In the past I owned a few Apple computers and loved them and yes they were not very compatible with Windows at the time but using a phone as a camera and then not being able to get my data in a simple process to my PC for editing makes this phone pretty useless!
Thankyou
this is why i really dont like apple. with every single other phone all you have to do is drag and drop the files. there is no excuse.
