We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I have around 35 GB on photos i need to remove from my cellphone to my computer. Everytime i try to, either the tranfer breaks, or a message of "not identifying the amount" pops, or the conection between my computer and the phone is very fragile and keeps crashing. Can anyone recomend the best way to extract them, either a tecnique, or a software, etc. Thanks everyone!
ps: i currently dont have an sd card in hand,

If you have a prime account, you have unlimited photo cloud storage, uncompressed. I have 75+gb there. All free. Sync to Amazon cloud, download all on desktop. Free and quick

You're going to need to give more details like your phone and computer os at the very least to get anything useful

Follow this tutorial https://sreekanth-chaliyeduth.medium.com/how-to-transfer-files-from-android-to-computer-using-adb-tool-script-da001fcd9c8

If you don't want to mess with command line stuff, use this app, create an ftp server that runs off the phone then use an ftp client on windows to download the files.

Install DropBox or some other storage app, iCloud, OneDrive, etc. It will sync the photos then you can go to the site on your computer and download them.

If you are on Android there are sync programs and can connect to a shared folder on your computer.

You can also try to get a USB drive that can plug directly into your phone.

Just upload to cloud or another server.

Cable?

Or is that what you mean with the very fragile connection?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Means that the conection keeps breaking between the phone and the computer when theyre conected with a cable. The cable is not damaged, its fine. Its just the conection between them keeps breaking.
