How to transfer batch of pics to mac without having to chose medium or full res for each individual image

David 12 years ago • updated 12 years ago • 3
When I try to transfer photos from iPad to mac, I connect to the address in my browser no problem, but then near top of page it asks me to chose between THM, MOV or other format; it displays thumbnails of each of the 200 photos and it seems that I have to chose between medium res and full res for each image individually. I am never taken to the page as shown on the step-by-step guide that gives the option of selecting medium or full res for the entire batch. It is too time consuming to do it photo by photo. If I click on the icon to download zip file in THM format, it instantly creates a zip file for me that is only 4kb in size and does not seem to contain any photo at all. How do I download the whole batch at full res? David

Hello David,

Thank you for posting your question here, I will be happy to help you.

When you select photos to transfer make sure you don't have videos selected in with the batch of photos. This usually is the reason why you see a "THM" and "MOV" format. So transfer photos separate from videos.

From there you should be able to see the "download photos in a full resolution zip" button and that will allow you to have the full resolution of all your photos. Make sure you unzip the folder. To do so, right click on the photos.zip file and select 'extract all'.

Please let me know if you have any more questions!

Kind Regards,

Amber

Hi Amber - I am having the same problem. I tried your suggestion of un-selecting the videos, leaving only photos, but still have the option to pick format and not resolution. Please advise!!

Hello Tonya,

I am sorry you are having issues with the app as well!

I would recommend that you try and transfer only 1 photo. Not a batch to see if you continue to get the same formats pop up for the .zip file.

Here is another thing that you can try: Download all the images in the original version and format when you are not provided with the download full resolution link, please append the following to the address provided by the app:

http://:8080/photos.zip

That should initiate the download of your images. We are looking at this issue and we'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

Best,

Amber
