How do i plug in my iphone to my laptop - Apple iPhone4 4G iPhone 4

1. Take it to the Apple Store.
2. Try using the factory reset.
3. Plug the usb part of your charger into your laptop or computer(If you have one) and plug in the charging part of the charger into your iphone

most likely yes you need wifi on the computer, how do you get online on that computer without phone plugged in?

Anonymous, if you are interested in just getting Iphone 5 pictures on to your laptop without iTunes setup, you should be able to. Use your Iphone USB charging cable and plug into your laptop. Wait while the iphone is recognized and a driver may be installed. Then, go to the Start menu and type Computer and select it. This should bring you to a window where you will see your Iphone listed. You can then click on the folders and see the pics available to you. Hope this helps

plug in to the laptop by usb lead then on my computer there will be a file box from the phone to take the pics videos off.

One way is to sync photos when you plug in your iPhone with iTunes. Another would be to allow folder access and copy it off manually like you would a flash drive.

Assuming you're using Windows, go to My Computer and your iPhone should be listed there. Double click until you find the pictures located on your iPhone. Then, you can copy and paste them wherever you want them, then they can be deleted from your iPhone at your computer or on your iPhone. This has worked for me on my iPod Touch 4th generation, so it should work on iPhone.
If you're using a Mac, sorry, but I'm not experienced with Macs. You should be able to find the iPhone as if it were a USB thumb drive, but that's all I can give.
Download iPhone Explorer from Macroplant.com. Plug in the iPhone USB cable. Find the DCIM folder and copy all the pictures from it. This is fundamentally better than emailing the pics to yourself because when you email them, your iphone compresses then in some situations. This works on both Macs and PCs.
it was something enormously obvious! I researched online some more and found so many different answers but hidden in some random thread somewhere was a guy that said the following:
"The iPhone will not transfer photos to your computer if the device is locked and you are using a passcode. If you want to transfer photos, simply unlock (Slide to unlock and enter passcode) your device to transfer photos.Note: Plug the iphone to your computer in unlocked mode."I keep a passcode on my phone to keep my kids off of it and I never would have thought that would be why. Once I changed my settings and plugged it in, my device popped up and so did my pictures! Now I wonder if iTunes will do it automatically since the passcode is disabled.Thanks for the help guys!

Hi,
Download iTunes from Apple site.
iTunes
Install and plug your iPhone to laptop .
Now open iTunes it will sync iPhone automatically

Thanks for using FixYa..

It sounds like your usb port is damaged. Look in the port and see if there is any visible damage. Also, check the usb cord for the iphone and see if it is damaged.



Please take time to rate.

so you saved them on your iphones hard drive instead of the photos library?
