jamjim Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Hi, I used to transfer my pictures from iphone to laptop via 'my devices' section in 'my computer' area, but now when i connect my iphone, it does not appear in the available devices section. everything else works fine. Checked computer management etc. Any idea please???? Thanks, Jamjim
Trapper Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Mine does this occasionally too. I've found connecting the phone, opening iTunes, letting it sync, close iTunes and repeat will eventually bring the phone back to My Computer. There is probably a more elegant solution out there though!!
jamjim Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 Hi, Tried that but it did not work. Any more ideas please? Thanks jamjim
SC-UK Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Can you not use the Scanners and Cameras wizard? I'm fairly sure that will work with the iPhone no problem? Tom

timzim Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Try moving USB cable to another USB port - this has worked for me on more than one occasion.
nobody Posted May 23, 2009 Posted May 23, 2009 You could always use file sharing apps like Air Share or something.. but why pay for an App when it should be free right? Try restarting your computer and iPhone. Same thing happens to me once in a while but mines jailbroke so I just grab them off through SSH (edit) Also, i don't know if its just my computer or not, but different USB ports act differently for a few of my devices I have plugged in. Maybe try a different USB port as well if you don't always use the same one?
