  • Transfer photos from iPhone to Mac easily using Preview

    What’s the fastest and easiest way to transfer photos from your iPhone to your computer?

    Using the Mac there are 2 very easy ways, the first is using the built in Mac app called Preview.

    An interesting note, you don’t have to unlock the phone to transfer images using these methods. A convenience in one respect but also somewhat of a security flaw to keep in mind.

    1 Plug your iPhone to your Mac using the USB cable

    2 Start Preview, a free app that comes with your Mac.

    After your image is copied to the destination it also opens in Preview.

    Another great way to transfer images is with Image Capture
