@chamin, it's not that you're not apple-savvy...it's that these Apple administrators are not helping you. I realize it is a year since this thread has been active so it is probably too late for you, but since I had the same problem and NOBODY is posting a solution, I will post mine here to help the next person. Afterward, I will post my rant on this subject.
SOLUTION:
I installed Dropbox on the iPhone, and then went into dropbox, and selected Upload. It then threw me into the albums I wanted to upload. I had to check each individual photo, and then wait for Dropbox to sync via WiFi. After it did…I then went to the Mac, where I had installed Dropbox already, waited for it to sync, and moved the photos/videos from my Dropbox folder into a folder offline.
(now stop here, unless you want to read my rant)
VIOLA!!! I am now thinking WHY is there not a straightforward solution from Apple support, and WHY do people ignore the need to accomplish this task????
There SHOULD be a way to do this using iTunes or a Mac computer. I am very disappointed at all the apple support forums where administrators are continually parroting the "the proper method of syncing photos/videos" and outright ignoring the actual situation that needs to be dealt with. Typical IT support snobbishness…always questioning "how come you want to do it that way…you should be doing it this way, blah blah blah". Take my example, and start to help by answering the user's questions and quit trying to defend the illogical nature of something.
This is another reason I am a major promoter of PC, and heavily against any deployment of Macs. Although I love the iPhone because of its stability, iPhone users tend to use Macs…and I am in a working environment where there are so many people who want to use Mac instead of PC. I use a Mac every day to evaluate it from a support perspective, and I have detailed lengthy notes on the problems with using a Mac in the PC environment but nobody cares…because users don't care about knowing how a computer works. Once again, I had to figure out a workaround that Apple doesn't support. I actually should come forward and admit that Microsoft support administrators have pretty much the same arrogance and smudgeness.
