After suggesting to connect the iPhone to the computer with the Lightning cable I thought I better try it because I must admit that I had not done this in a very long time. First of all, it is very important that after you connect the phone that you tap "Allow" when you are prompted if you want to give access to the phone, this is on the phone and it actually requires you to enter your passcode just like after a restart of the phone. Once I did this and opened File Explorer I did have "Apple iPhone" under removable devices. Pressing enter on it opened it and showed me a sub folder called "Internal Storage" and pressing enter on this showed me another sub folder called "DCIM" which is often the folder you get as well on the SD Card of a digital camera, it stands for "Digital Camera Images". After opening that subfolder I had two more subfolders, they were "100Apple" and "100Cloud". All of this seemed perfectly fine, but once I checked these two last subfolders things got a bit strange because while I have over 600 pictures and videos on my phone, the 100Apple folder only had 59 images in it and most of them seemed to be live pictures which consist of a JPG file and a second file which is called the same name but has a .MOV extension. In the 100Cloud folder I only had 10 pictures so obviously many pictures on my phone were not there and I have no idea why this is the case. I was able t use both the "Copy" and "Move" command to copy or remove a picture from the phone and place it in a folder on my computer, but of course that is of little use if most of the images which are on the phone are not showing up in these folders. I have to check my settings on the phone to see if maybe I have it set to offload pictures to iCloud after a time although that probably is not the case because while some of the pictures on the phone were quite recent, I also saw some which go back to 2018 and even 2017. A call to Apple Accessibility might be in order if I can't find an answer first by doing a Google search, but it would appear that this method of getting images off your phone may not be a reliable method if most of the pictures are not showing up.
