On my Samsung phone I use an app called Photo Transfer. Its easy to use and I can transfer photos between windows 7 desktop, my IPad, or my phone without any cables.
On your android you have to slide your finger down from the top after connecting the usb cable to access the option to enable the file transfer mode. The default just uses it for charging.On my Android phone, the USB cable will not work for file transfer, for some reason. I use an app called "Send Anywhere" to transfer files and it works really well. It is also available for the Apple phones.
and that's why i gave up on this chit years ago. seems every time they do something that might make things easier, the marketing/legal dept get their hands on it and makes it a nightmare.Well - it's been accomplished. Five photos transferred from my computer to my cell phone. I hooked the two together with a USB cable and followed the steps outlined on an Apple web site. Downloaded one new software pkg - upgraded another. Three new passwords - two new security codes. Marched thru innumerable drop down menus. I, honestly, can not imagine a scenario where I will got thru this level of BS - ever again.
I felt like I was asking to transfer the launch codes for the Starwars ballistic missile inventory.
Oh, well - its done.
That worked on my old phone but not on my new phone. Seems to be some glitch with the USB port. Send Anywhere app works well so I quit worrying about it.On your android you have to slide your finger down from the top after connecting the usb cable to access the option to enable the file transfer mode.

I often want to copy photos from my phone to my PC. I just touch the share icon and email them to myself. It compresses the image but no reason you can't do it in either direction.
