[digiKam-users] --> Import from iPhone 7 into MacOSX

[Alex Antão]

The problem is that on MacOSX the phone is not mounted. There's no folder DCIM i can access to copy the files. I think it's PTP the protocol.



I'd like something just like Photos, that recognizes my phone as soon as it's plugged, shows the photos I did not transfer yet and ignore the ones I've transfered. Jus like the import dialog that digiKam has does, but is not doing with my iPhone 7.



regards

If you can transfer the images to a directory on your MacBook, you have two 
options: 
- transfer the images directly into a subdirectory of your Digikam collection 
on the MacBook, and let Digikam find them. 
- transfer your images to an intermediate directory and import from there into 
Digikam. 
 
Sorry, I don't know the (dis)advantages of those methods.
