    plug it into your laptop usign the firewall wire thing.

    orr… you know the charger? it’s detatchable from the wire. take the apart and then you can attatch it into the socket in the laptop that looks like 3 spokes. Kat

    It should be a lot simpler than the methods people listed above.

    Just connect your iOS device (iPhone included) to your computer through a the provided USB cable, open up iPhoto (should open automatically actually), and you’ll see your device listed. Pick the photos you want to import and click Import Selected and voila, you’ve got your photos in your library. Eric X

    Here is an easy way I’ve used. That is to use this iPhone to Mac Transfer program

    It is an easy-to-use iPhone to Computer transfer software that can fast copy songs from iphone to mac and manage your music, videos, photos, podcasts and TV Shows between iPhone and Mac.
    And you can use it to transfer all music and other files from your iPhone onto the iTunes in a direct way. This won’t overwrite any original files on your iPhone. And all song names are preserved.

    Give it a try. It will save you lots of time on this.

    One way you could do this without using iPhoto is just by Emailing them to yourself. Open you camera roll on your iPhone and click the button in the lower left. Then, click on all of the photos you want to transfer and press share. From here there’s an option to e-mail the photos. If you have a lot of photos you may need to select all of them and then press copy. You will then be able to paste them into an e-mail. Then you will be able to save them to your Mac from the Email. This is not the best way to transfer photos, but an alternative. Fringgo
