What’s the fastest possible way to transfer your pictures and videos from your iPhone to your MacBook? I’don’t know… but here’s a step-by-step tutorial how not to do it:
- AirDrop: iPhone can’t find MacBook Air.
- AirDrop: iPhone finds MacBook, but doesn’t transfer too much.
- Looking for iCloud. No chance.
- Activate iCloud on iPhone.
- Can’t transfer photos to iCloud (can I?)
- Trying transmitting images via E-Mail: Forget it!
- Try Dropbox: Veery slow…
- Checking again Airdrop: Still nothing.
- Checking Dropbox: Still very slow…
- Setting up USB. Trying Photos App. Realizing: Not enough storage space on MacBook Air to save all the pics. Aha!
- Switching to (too old) MacBook Pro. Plugging in USB…
- Starting up Photos App: «Preparing Photos: 13%,… 14%,…» Veery slow, again.
- Starting up Picasa… Bad Idea. RAM’s getting upset.
- Checking again the Dropbox-Folder. Almost done. OK, I surrender.
- Uploading designated pics from MacBook to WordPress: HTTP ERROR! (Panorama-Pics are too big, I figure)
- Resizing via Photoshop (RAM disagrees)…
- Finally uploading Gallery.
- Uploading Slo-Mo Video directly from iOS to YouTube and wondering: will it be in Slow-Motion?
- It IS in slo-mo!
- Finally ready to publish another article noone’s gonna read and…
- …good night, I’ve had enough for today!
