How To Transfer Downloads From Iphone To Computer

Transfer Data from iPhone to PC:

Method 1 - iPhone to PC via iTunes

iTunes is a media player, library and iOS device management application offered by Apple. It allows you to transfer and backup contents from iPhone to PC automatically or manually. Although many users feel iTunes is so confusing and complicated to use, it is always a feasible way to transfer iPhone data to PC.

1. Connect your iPhone to PC and open iTunes.
2. If a message asks for the passcode or Trust This Computer, just follow the onscreen guide. If the message doesn't pop up, just skip this step.
3. Select your iPhone when appearing in iTunes
4. Choose the data you want to backup from iPhone to PC and tap "Back Up Now".

5. When the process ends, you can check whether the backup is successful on the Summary screen in iTunes by finding Latest Backup and the time and data.

The drawbacks of using iTunes to transfer iPhone data to PC:: • iTunes does not allow you to backup a specific category like iPhone photo, music or video selectively. If you make backup from iPhone to PC via iTunes, then you have to backup other data at the same time.; • If you backup new contents to PC, then the previous backup and contents will be covered.

Method 2 - iPhone to PC via iCloud

Compared to iTunes, users prefer to use iCloud to backup iPhone data and files for its automatic wireless sync feature. Here is how to backup iPhone to PC with iCloud:

1. Connect your iPhone to WiFi.
2. Go to Settings, Your Name, and tap iCloud.
3. Tap iCloud Backup.
4. Click on Back Up Now. Wait until the whole process gets finished and keep the WiFi on. (Still, like iTunes, under the Back Up Now, you will see the data and time of the last backup.)
5. Go to iCloud.com, find the file you want to transfer to PC. Let's take the photo for example. Tap Photos, choose All Photos, select the photos you want to transfer and then click on the downloading button on the upper right to start the transfer.

5. When the process ends, you can check whether the backup is successful on the Summary screen in iTunes by finding Latest Backup and the time and data.

Why iCloud is Not Recommended?: • The transfer speed is determined by your network situation. It takes a long time to input your iCloud account's email address, your password and login in. Then, you have to wait a long time before your files get totally uploaded.; • You have limited available space (5GB of iCloud storage for free) in iCloud for the backup. You have to buy more from your iOS devices if you need more iCloud storage.
