This will be super information for a friend with an iphone. She says that she has thousands of photos on her phone and has to get them off to make storage space. Is there a way to take ALL of the photos off at the same time?
Personally, I have the same Sandisk 1TB external hard drive and did a File back up on my desktop yesterday. Works great. Even though I have used Carbonite for years, just wanted a current backup in a separate place.
I have around 6,000 photos and videos and my wife has 9000. Which drives do we need to transfer to a new drive?
Here is another video I made that will help anyone who has an iPhone 14 or earlier! Let me know if you have any questions!

Hello guys, just trying to clarify something. If my icloud storage is full and I want ALL my photos offloaded to an external hard drive this would be the steps to do it? Any other tips? When I upgrade to a new iphone I dont want to transfer anything. I want to start fresh. Let me know any tips!! Thanks!
My phone is 15 not works .
can anyone tell me if these work with a iphone 13
hiiii so can i do this exact process with my iphone 14 ??
I have an iPhone 15 Pro and when I plug in my sand desk, the files app is not seeing the hard drive at all. Help! The photos are not going g to the hard drive. They are going g into my files but there is no way to move them into the hard drive.
Does that work with an iPhone 13
Hello. I am so excited to try this method. I have been trying different types of approaches with no success. I want to move ALL my photos off my iPhone 13. Is there a way to Select all, so I don’t have to scroll to select all 4,000 items?
I clicked save to files but have no idea where they went on the external HD
It would be really easier if you could just go to the photos and just hit select videos or whatever select a bunch of videos and it takes those videos from your camera roll and push them onto it and automatically clears your iPhone storage
My SanDisk SSD shows up in files, but after I open it and go to photos to be moved, when selecting save to files another folder is the default and when I finally select the SSD the save button is grayed out, can’t select and save???
Is working on IPhone 15?
Does this still work? I have tried to connect my Samsung Hard drive to my iPhone X and even my iPhone 14 Pro and it doesn’t work?
Will the supplied usb cord with the featured hard drive fit directly into my iphone 11 without an adapter?
Can I transfer and save all the photos and videos from my phone onto this device long term? And does it work with an Android?
Hi. impressively succinct AND understandable for peeps not 100% au fait with everyday moving of videos. Q: when i get to moving it to ‘save to files’, it says ‘not enough storage space’. The external has 40G free…what would it be referring to?
Would this work with a LaCie hard drive ? Gonna try 😂
By the way I have iCloud too paying for it … but idk the point since it’s telling me my phones full
I guess idk how to use it if ya need more video topics 😂
I’m sure it’s out there… working on learning but like this sh*t should come with a manual from apple 🤣
How must the hard/flash drive be formatted?
How connect iPhone 12 Pro Max to Sandisk 2Tb
This makes a copy to external device. It does not MOVE it. You will have to manually delete from phone to make space
You made this look so easy, thanks for keeping it simple.
This is a FRAUD and DOES NOT WORK. My "SAVE" button is greyed out?
How to import data from ssd to i phone?
I have the sandisk extreme portable 2tb external hard drive and the iphone 15 plus is not recognizing the device. I can see it on my macbook 2013 pro. I have a partioned HD file format exFAT. Is this a power /charging issue? The link in descriptiomn for trouble shooting is only for connection issues to the mac not the phone. Feedback appreciated, thank you
SO HELPFUL!!! you really saved meee!! Every time I tried to copy files from IPhone to Windows to Hard disk there was an error.
Most useful video ever!!! (This and the one showing how to turn on a Redmi without the power button)!!!
many thanks, what is the difference beteen the two options export unmodified original vs safe to file (sssd)?
Can you dump a large amount of photos/videos at once?
What "Files" app?
thank you so much for this!! I have been wanting to transfer my files directly for years – thank you for sharing this!
It’s baffeling that there is no option to select all the photos!! iPhone suck
For 200GB how long transfer time?
OK, I’m retired photographer I’ve got closer to 200,000 images in the cloud and in my tablet. I don’t have a computer, but I have two iPad pros. How can I get all my photos into that hard drive from my iPad Pro? Do I have to click on them one photo at a time or is there a way to transfer the whole batch at once?
Thanks for the useful info. Would u tell me how to access the edited videos on the hardrive with the iphone? I mean, I wanna open the edited videos on the iphone again… shoul I reverse the initial process?
does this work with iphone 14 pro using lightning?
I have an iPhone 13 Pro and when I connect it, it doesn’t show on my phone that it’s connected, it doesn’t turn on! What can I do? I’m using the cable I use to charge it since it’s not an input on my phone… please help 🥹
When you make a YouTube video make sure of what you say is accurate. It is not a hard drive, it is a SSD .
This is super helpful! Do you have to re-select them on your phone to delete them after?
Does this work for a macbook air or is this for a PC laptop?
Is there a way to select ALL your photos and then start a huge download so you can save as a back up for all your stuff?
appreciate your help man!
Thank you for the help. I have a different type of ssd portable hard drive but all the information worked to help me
Very helpful thanks bro 🫡🫡🫡 I was so close to buying a new phone.😅 I’m so back up on videos to upload to YouTube but I couldn’t so thanks again 👍🏾🫡
So I bought the SSD since my storage is full. But I can’t put the videos from my photos to my drive because I don’t have enough storage? So what was the point? How do I transfer files if I can’t put a downloaded file in my folder that’s already on my phone?
What if my hard drive is seagate??
So you don’t need to download an APP to use this external drive? I just received mine and trying to get started. Thx!
I just bought the sandisk extreme Pro 2 TB
