How to download photos in mass from an iphone/ipad from iCloud...
I do not imagine I am the first to hit this road block...
This post assumes one has no Windows or Mac computer.
How do you move photos from your iphone/ipad to your Ubuntu computer?
All ideas welcome!
Background info:
You can use Firefox and go to iCloud.com:
...But can you select more than one photo at a time?
Yes - I could not using "old accustomed ways".
You can plug your iphone/ipad into the USB port of a Ubuntu laptop:
I found clicking on the iPad icon that the folder was empty - as in nothing at all on the iPad?
I could plug my iphone/ipad into my wifes Ubuntu laptop:
I found that out of the 14,500 photos I have only 250 or so were in the folders?
My wife can plug her iPhone into her Ubuntu laptop via USB:
My wife who does not store photos in the cloud can move all of hers to her laptop.
Details:
Ubuntu 16.10 and Firefox 53.
IPad Pro.
IPhone SEs.
14,500 photos - 41GB.
At the time of this writing every everything was current and upto date.
I need 41gb of storage on either IDevice to not use the cloud and download all my photos - I don't have it.
