martsycart Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 I have a Mac so it’s easier for me. If you don’t own a Mac your best bet is to upload it to Google Drive or Dropbox or something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 You couldn’t pay me to use a Mac. Actually Phil, you are close. When I “E-Mail” it, of course the video file is too large to E-Mail, so it uploads to iCloud and E-Mails a link to it. That means functionally, I upload a gigabyte to iCloud, then download the gigabyte to my PC, edit if necessary, just so I can upload it AGAIN to YouTube. If I plug in a cable, the PC recognizes the iPhone and will show that there is storage on the phone, but you can’t see what’s there or download it. Stupid! So much easier on an Android. But this is a work issued phone and they forced the change a while back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilMassey Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 You have my sympathy, Jim. Apple is far too locked down for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martsycart Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 I have never had an issue transferring my photos and videos to my windows pc when directly connected with a cable. Might want to try these steps: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201302#importpc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Thanks, but item #1 is a stopper. I absolutely refuse to ever put iTunes on a PC again. I did so a few years back when my son got an iPhone, and it so F$&@#% up the computer that I had to remove it in order to get some control of the computer . Never again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
