Trying to copy pics from iphone to PC

Im trying to copy pics from camera roll to a directory on my pc. itunes only wants to sync from pc to iphone. When I click on the iphone camera directory in windows explorer the windows camera and scanner wizard tells me that the scanner or camera is in use and cant access the files. This message appears whether itunes is open or not, whether it is locked or unlocked. I dont want to lose the camera roll images and I certainly dont want to have to email each one
Can anyone help please

There are several ways to import the photos:
1) Use File Explorer (I am not sure why you are getting the "in-use" error. Try a reboot of both devices and de-select autosync in preferences before hooking up the iphone.)
2) Windows Digital Camera Wizard. Go to Devices & Printers, Scanners and Cameras.
3) Many of the photo programs have photo import tools also, but I can't recommend one. I use method 1, above.
Hope this helps.

    Are you syncing the photos using Itunes?
    When you plug your phone into your PC, in Itunes under the picture tab you can sync photo and then choose the photos.

  • Trying to copy pics from 3gs to PC w/o itunes, tried 3 pc's "no pics on your camera"

    Hello all,
    I have a 3gs phone with about 9,000 pics, I am upgrading the phone to an iphone 4 and I dont need all the pics. I have tried copying the pics using 3 different computers and so far no luck, I tried a HP laptop with win XP, Vaio laptop with Win 7 Ultimate and PC with win 7.
    I dont want to use itunes(more on that in a sec).
    I have connected the iphone to the pc through USB, sometimes the propmpt for "get pictures" comes up, when I open it there is a message " there are currently no pictures on your camera".
    Method #2 , open windows explorer, double click on the Apple Iphone, DCIM, and folder is blank.
    Method #3 , open windows explorer, right click on Apple Iphone, click on open and/or explore, folder is blank, no pics
    Method #4 , open windows explorer, right click on Apple Iphone, click on "get pictures" goes back to message " there are currently no pictures on your camera".
    I know I have 9,000 pics on my phone, I just can't seem to be able to extract them.
    * the reason that I dont want to use itunes is because I have an old phone, 3GS, since the 3+ years I had this phone I have it backed up twice or 3 times to different computers that have crashed through the years. Hence I am afraid that if I hook up this 3GS to a new computer it might erase everything I have becuase I already did the 3 allowed backups in 3 different computers.
    Also, I dont want to back up my pics, I want to extract them from my 3GS, back up the remaining contacts and info and restore on the Iphone 4.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    Hi ya'll! I'm still learning how to navigate my way with Lightroom. (Last time I wrote, I did get some responses that work. Thanks so much!) Now, I have another question. When I try to copy pics from my external drive to a CD/DVD, no matter if do it from LR or my drive, I keep getting the message; "Disk burning is not supported by LR on this computer." I've tried everything I can think of, so, I thought I'd see if anyone may know if there's anything I can do. Or could it be that my computer just can't handle it? Help!!! So frustrating!!  I have a PC Lenovo computer, I don't know if this makes any difference. Any ideas? Thanks so much for your help!!!

    Have you burned Discs with other programs using this computer? Are you certain that you have a drive that will burn discs?

  • How to copy contacts from Iphone to different GSM phone

    how to copy contacts from Iphone to different GSM phone? I am trying to copy contacts from my iphone to normal phone which is not an android phone or another iphone.

    You can sync your contacts to a compatible address book on your computer or cloud service.
    How to get them from there into your 'other GSM phone' is completely dependent on the phone. Ask the manufacturer of your phone...
    You may be able to send them via text message and save them in the other phone.  Again, ask the manufacturer or read the manual.
