Salvaging photos from iPhone?
Sep. 22nd, 2012 10:58 amHere's a puzzler: As those reading here probably saw, Kathleen's computer lost its hard drive. While some photos were lost, there's a LOT of them on her iPhone, because she used to store copies on the phone for convenience, etc. I can still SEE the photos on her phone, so I know they still exist.
The problem is that transferring them seems to be... difficult. iPhoto and ImageCapture only find about 800+ photos -- I think the ones that were actually taken *by* the iPhone, rather than by some other mechanism -- where there are something like four to five THOUSAND photos in actuality.
How do I get ALL of the photos back out of the phone and onto Kathy's new hard drive?
