If you own an iPhone, transferring photos from the device to your Mac may seem daunting. But with a few simple steps in place, this process can be relatively painless. Here’s how:
Step 1: Connect Your iPhone to Your Mac
The initial step in connecting an iPhone to a Mac is using a USB cable. After connecting, the Photos app should launch automatically on your computer.
Step 2: Choose the Photos You Want to Import
In the Photos app, click “Devices” in the sidebar to display all your photos and videos stored on your device. From here, select which photos you wish to import by clicking them; if all are desired, click “Import All New Photos.”
Step 3: Import Your Photos
Once you’ve selected your images, click the “Import Selected” button. This will bring the selected pictures over to your Mac computer. If you wish to delete the photos from your iPhone after importing them, check the “Delete items after import” checkbox before clicking “Import Selected.”
Step 4: Browse Your Imported Photos
Once the import process is complete, you can view your imported photos in the Photos app on your Mac.

Make sure your iPhone is unlocked while importing photos to avoid any interruptions during the process.
Additionally, ensure you have enough storage space on your Mac before uploading photos.
