Are you trying to find the best way to import photos from your iPhone to your Mac? With so many options available, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for you. In this blog post, we will discuss how to import photos from iPhone to Mac without iPhoto, as well as some other options that are available.

The first option for importing photos from iPhone to Mac is through AirDrop. This is an Apple feature that allows users to quickly and easily transfer files between Apple devices. To use AirDrop, open the Photos app on your iPhone and select the photos you want to import. Then, click the Share button and select your Mac’s name in the AirDrop section. The photos will then be transferred directly from your iPhone to your Mac without having to use iPhoto.

Another option for importing photos from iPhone to Mac is through Finder. Connect your iPhone and Mac with a cable, then open Finder on your Mac and locate your phone under Devices. Click on your phone, then at the top of the page click “Photos”. Check the box next to “Sync photos” and select whether you want to sync all of them or only specific albums. Once you have selected what you want to be synced, click “Sync Now” at the bottom of the window and wait for it to finish transferring all of the photos over.

If you are having trouble getting your phone recognized by Finder or if you get an error message when attempting to add photos, it may be due to a connection error caused by location and privacy settings on your device. To fix this issue, go into Settings > General > Reset/Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset Location & Privacy on your device before attempting again.

Now that we’ve discussed how to import photos from iPhone to Mac without iPhoto, let’s take a look at some other ways that you can transfer files between devices:

• Using iCloud: You can use iCloud Drive or Photo Stream (which comes with iOS 5 or later) as another way of transferring files between Apple devices without having to use wires or cables.

• Using Dropbox: Dropbox is a cloud-based storage solution that allows users easily share files across multiple devices using their Dropbox account.

• Using USB cables: If none of these options work for you, then using a USB cable is probably still the simplest way of transferring files between devices while keeping them organized in folders just like they were on your computer or device before being transferred over.

Ultimately it comes down to what works best for each user depending on their needs and preferences – hopefully, this blog post has given you enough information about how importing photos from iPhone to Mac without iPhoto works so that you can decide which method fits best with what you need!
