Thanks, Godfrey. I realized that Photo replaced iPhoto after posting my initial message. The photos on my phone are backed up to iCloud and show up in Photo. But I don’t want to use Photo for editing. I just want to get my images into a folder on my notebook from which I can import them into LR. > 1- Going from any iOS device to any macOS device: simplest is AirDrop.

As I said to Paul (Stenquist), I gave this a try. Fast and simple. Two issues. I’m not finding a way to set the target folder on my notebook. And I have to select images one-by-one. I want to select by group, e.g., all images from a certain date or in a certain folder. > 2- Going from an iOS device to a macOS device with a Lightning to USB cable: > plug in the iPhone and start Image Capture, select the iPhone.

It was trying this that led me to post my original request for suggestions. I have about a 1000 images on my phone. About 250 were taken this past Saturday, along with a few short videos. It’s these minus the videos that I want to get off the phone. In Image Capture I have to select the images one-by-one. That’s cumbersome. (Update: As I was composing the preceding, a solution occurred to me: click at the beginning of the group, shift-click at the end, import. Then when the files are in the folder on the notebook, click the file-type column and delete the video files.) This is my solution for now and maybe permanently. I’ll be checking out the Mobile LR and SanDisk iXpand options in the future. ------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA “Between the banks of pain and pleasure the river of life flows.” - Nisargadatta -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
