    Hi folks,

    I'm most likely missing something trivial but I'm trying to get photos off my 6S plus to the PC. Phone recognised. Shows internal storage. But on double-tap, I get the message. Optimize photos are ON. Suggestions?

    If you have optimise storage enabled in photos only thumbnails are stored on the device, they would look terrible on a big screen so maybe you have to use iCloud for windows to save them to it?

    Yeah, though as much guil. On the cloud as we speak. All there of course but cant for the love of jesus find a way to select multiples (approx 250 pics) in one go. It looks like its a "shift + click" on every one I want.

    A royal PITA.

    Have you iCloud for Windows installed or are you using the website?

    It's easy to download or upload photos using iCloud for windows. It automatically downloads any new photos to a local folder as well.
