I bought a smartphone for $1500, an advanced Apple corporation, and I have to dance with a tambourine to copy videos from the smartphone to Windows. This is mind boggling.
I’m going mad

What a lifesaver? I have been trying to transfer via cable to PC using the 'Photos' app on the PC and it's taking SO MUCH TIME to transfer couple of photos. Some of them are also corrupted- for example, some photos have grey areas that looks like they're not loading well. The first one worked for me :D Thank you so much!
Great, glad it worked out for you 😀 - Hazel, PV Team
@@PrimalVideoWhen you transfer video to pc is it same size as in iphone ? When I transfer video size is few mb less
Hey, did you sort out the issue with the wrong creation date on videos?
I use for several years Send Anywhere between ANY phones, MacBooks , any thing, in same wifi . Absolutely quick and no problem.
Thanks for this video! Very helpful to know before I dive into making content with my phone. I know I’m going to still make mistakes and learn, but knowing these little details of “keep original” settings will help! 👍🏻
You're welcome, all the best Nikki 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
BEST AND SIMPLE WAY TO EXPLAIN , AWESOME VERY HELPFUL AS IT STOPPED ME BUYING THE Macbook for transfering my data..thanks a lot
Great, so glad you found this helpful 😀 - Hazel, PV Team
Great video with some great options. I’ve been using Intel Unison as it’s the quickest way for my setup but I will try the cable method again to see if it’s any quicker. That being said I have an AMD CPU and can still use Unison so I wonder if they’ve changed the requirements?
REALLY excellent concise overview of different options to deal with the unfortunately vexing problem that inexplicably still exists. As I have 20,000+ photos and videos on my IPhone 14 Pro, I still run into issues with the phone/computer freezing up trying to read and display all the media.
Thank you man< that helps a lot, God bless you bro
The transfer to SD was the best for me. Thanks. 8:09
Are they being copyed with the correct creation date though? Or the creation date is set as the date that the photos/videos are being copyed?
VLC Option is amazing. Thank you very much for this video.
You're welcome, have a great day - Hazel, PV Team
Thanks so much! The VLC method is a life saver, but was shocked to learn about the cloud drive method. That one would be my go to from here on out
You're welcome, glad you found a better alternative 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
the file sharing option worked for me , many thanks bro, never used iphone (dad's) but damn what a work around to just do a simple task.
Nice, so glad it worked 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
@@PrimalVideoWhen you transfer video is it the same size ? I used a few programs, fonetool, itunes and every video I transfer is a few mb less

Great video with long options with less than 15 minutes. I got only one question which was missed in video but all the options which you have explained will get the photos and videos on same quality, if not please let us know which will give us the same quality on windows from iPhone.
Thank you so much for making this video. I recently got back from a trip to Japan and was having difficultly moving the videos on my phone to my laptop. This video helped me greatly.

Thanks for this video. Anytime I shoot a video, I'm stock with transferring from my phone to my system. God bless

Will any external herd drive work if has a usb-c input and you use an apple lightning to usb-c charging cable to connect the iPhone 13 to the external hard drive. Does the external hard drive have to be formatted a certain way in order to use it on your iPhone and your computer? Please help.

@@PrimalVideoshut up hazel nobody asked for your name
Very helpful but I have a big problem, and watching your complete tutorial, it's not mentioned. When transferring a video to a PC the file type changes from Apple's "HEVC" file type, to an "MOV" file type (degrading the file not to mention trans-coding it to MP4 will degrade it more). Additionally, the only time appeared to transfer as a MPEG file was when you transferred it from the cloud. Is there a lossless way to transfer the APPLE file type "HEVC" (HEIF for photos) to a PC? Btw, all of my video software will not recognize HEVC files and this IPhone is useless to me if I can't make videos for something only as small as a little camera. Any input would help. Thank you.
I'm having the same issue. The colors of the .MOV video files are all messed up. Please lmk if you find a solution. Should I shoot as JPG on my phone? I'd rather not to save storage space but if I want to save vids from my iPhone 15 pro max to Windows, is this the only option?
what i did is use the photos app on windows (it was a fkn headache) and that seemed to transfer them in native apple formats. i do have to use a free 3rd party app to open them unless you want to pay $0.99 for a HEVC codec on windows. the free app (Real HEIC File Viewer) works fine and doesn’t require a subscription either. if that doesn’t work for you too then i wish you luck man :/
@@claudiaeric8789brother go to settings on your apple then go to photos then go all the way down and click on ‘keep original’ to keep the original file when downloading. Lmk if it worked it worked for me
Now I need you to do one from Android phone to Mac!
Very helpful! Thank you so much

The maximum file size you can transfer with an i-phone is a major issue that nobody ever talks about. I recorded a 2 gig video file the other day and there is no way I can copy this over to PC, its impossible. The only potential way to do it is to edit and split the video... thoughts on this please?
What about transferring the 2gb video to a Samsung T7 SSD and then transferring the 2gb video from the SSD to the PC? I realize that's 2 steps but it should work. The iPhone shouldn't have a problem writing something that size to a Samsung T7 SSD.
@@thomza you cannot transfer that file size off an iphone in any means...doesnt work, trust me ive spent hours try work arounds they dont exist as far as i am aware
I transfer my videos which are 2 to 4 gig from my iPad to my PC using an iCloud link that I email to myself. Once you click on the email link, It may take a few minutes for the video file to be available for download depending on the speed of your Internet. Once it’s available, you just click the download button and it saves right to the PC wherever you tell it to save your video file.
hello! I just transfered a video which is 4gb on to my PC, probably 7 videos of that size and it worked. I used the cable to PC method. I'm sorry it's not working for you but have you done the thing in Settings where you click "Keep Original"?
I just bought the latest iPad Pro with the M2 chip and I was able to transfer a 9GB video from the iPad to a Samsung T7 SSD with no problem. The reverse worked as well. I was also able to send that 9GB video from the iPad to Google Drive with no issues.
if you save the video/photos to your iphone photos will it disappear on the VLC folder or will it just add up to the storage on your iphone?
Thanks, you earned a sub :)

IPhones are not for windows users lol

The issue with any way of transfer is that the creation date is altered to the date that photos and videos are being copyed. Also, it seems that metadata are lost as location is also dissapeared from them. Do you know how to coppy them including the correct metadata?
thank you so much!

If you create folders in the photos section of the iphone. Is there any way for these folder names to appear on your pc like it does with an android? Or do you just get the folders with the dates. I prefer the iphone camera, but its a nightmare if you want to transfer a large number of videos in an orderly fashion. Whereas with the android you can create folders in the camera section and then you can easily choose which folders you want to transfer from.
Does this also work for transfer of whole folder of files to/from the phone?
I LOVE YOU GOD DAMN IT
informative video.
Thanks, John - Hazel, PV Team

Is there any way to create folders on the phone and then transfer only the pictures in that folder. With android its possible but with iphone i only see folder with the dates, which makes it very tedious when transferring and organizing your pictures in specific folderson ur pc.

I was so excited about the VLC method but phots don't show up, only videos
Hi,
Vital question
I used to transfer videos by phone cable from iphone to PC , the video displayed on PC would be double the size on iphone (which is good and expected), the codec of the vid shows H.264 on PC and the quality is just good and natural.
Now when I transfer the very same video, from the same iphone to the very same PC (even to other PCs) via the same cable, the video file size is half, requires HEVC codec to play and when i downloaded hevc and okayed the video, visual quality is just bad ; bitrate is cut in half, fand file size is half than the previous copy that I had trabsferred many months ago.
Also, the good quality copy that shows H.264 on PC , now shows HEVC on the iphone
I only have this issue with videos now, not with pics. Inever had had it with videos before.
Would you happen to know where this might come from and how to remeditae?
(Full disclosure: dropbox and icloud don't help as they export the file from phone as compressed; and converting codecs doesn't do anything neither)
Thank you hery much
thank youuu

I've been trying to do the first method, but it just doesn't work. When I use the setting of automatic I get an error every time, but when I use keep originals then nothing on my PC can play the video properly.

Do I need a different cable? Because the one I use for charging my iPad does not react with my laptop, and instead it looks like my iPad is charging from the laptop!
So I’m trying to transfer videos from my PC to my iPad using and external ssd but the videos are just files and won’t play on my iPad, what do I need to do to get this to work?
Hi Justin my algorithm numbers keep reducing even though I upload videos regularly. What you think causing that, I try to contact UA-cam to ask about it with no success.
