How to get photos off of my broken IPhone?
I have a situation. I broke my phone last week. I dropped it and the screen turned black. I can still use Siri and touch things, but I'm not sure what I'm touching. I got a new iPhone shipped to my house. I need the photos off of my old phone but I'm not sure how. I don't know if I backed it up or not. I also tried plugging in my phone to my computer, but I need to allow access on my phone but it won't let me because my screen is broken. Please Help! 10 points to anyone who helps me fix my issue quick!
Sync it
If you had an iCloud backup then that works well, if you don't know how it works then go to an Apple store and they'll help you out.
Depending on the iPhone, when it needs access its usually just to unlock it. If you have one that uses Touch ID then simply using that would get you in. If it is not one of those you could perhaps use screenshots of the lock screen UI to guess where to tap the button to put in your code.
When you plug into computer you should be able to click on it like it were a hard drive… Do not use itunes
You can sync it in itunes. You can plug it into a PC and it shows up like a hard drive.
I recommend installing Google Photos. You get free unlimited storage for photos and videos so you don't have to worry about it again. Also don't have to worry about taking up all your Apple cloud storage.
- When apple replaces a broken iphone, do you get to keep the old broken one? The back camera on my iPhone 4s broke (just stopped working), so I called Apple and I have an appointment set up to replace the old phone with a brand new one. But, I want to know if when they give me the new phone, will they let me keep the old one? The phone still works fine except for the camera. In fact, it's almost perfect. And obviously I want to sell the old one on ebay to make a boat load.

- Just got a replacement Iphone for my broken one: how do i get my music/photos back? My old iphone 4s broke, so i just received my "new" replacement one. After restoring it i retrieved all my old contacts and apps, but my music and photos, with the exception of a few old pictures, have yet to appear. My old iphone, being broken, won't stay powered on for more than a second or so. If my old iphone has a sim card or something, do i take it out and put it in the new one to transfer all my old content?
- I want to get the photos off my broken iPhone? So I smashed my iPhone 4S, the screen is shattered, the back came off and the battery came out ( Of course is doesn't turn on ). I've tried plugging my phone into the computer to get the photos off. Any ideas?
