Windows 10: Add iPhone photos to legacy Microsoft folders

I am a swimming pool & a portable spa repairman. I have been collecting photos of my jobs for 25 years & saving them to Microsoft file folders. I have a folder for each customer.

I had a Windows phone & a couple of Android phones. I could copy my Windows folders to an SD chip with, not only photo folders & subfolders, but also folders containing documents & repair manuals. If I got a new phone, I just move the SD chip to it.

Several of my friends have iPhones. They said, "You have to get one, they're great!" So I got one.

The iPhone, & a lot of apps for smartphones, come with categories, like "Favorites!", "My Memories", & other cutesie stuff. I don't need "memories", I need a business machine.

I can upload my older photos to the iPhone and iCloud, but it categorizes them according to date & does not recognize the folders they're in. I want to add new iPhone photos to the existing customer folders. I have already given up on expecting to see them arranged the way that I want them on the iPhony, but I would at least like to add the new photos to my existing folders on my computer. But I can't find a program/app that will do it easily, if at all.

iPhone & iCloud does give me the option to create new "albums", but there is no way I am going to recreate a new "album" for each of hundreds of folders & migrate ten thousand photos to them.

As it is, I have to look in my calendar, find out when I was at the job, & then search the photo timeline for that customer's equipment.


Does anyone know of a program/app that will work with my existing, alphabetically indexed, filing system?


The only solution I can think of is trade my iPhony for an Android.


Apple doesn't play nice. The iPhone is the Betamax of our age.

iPhone Photos import to Windows 10 PC not working

I would like to troubleshoot my inability to import photos from iPhone to Windows 10. I am an advanced user struggling to find relevant help on the internet since most results are unusable masked adverts for paid third party software.

I want to use it the following way

1. connect iPhone via USB to my Windows 10 PC
   
2. open Microsoft "Photos" app
   
3. click in the upper right on import > add from the device over USB
   
4. select all photos and click import
   

4th step is where it fails, with no usable message.

• I have set the device as trusted on iPhone
  
• I mostly don't see it in My Computer, therefore I cannot just copy
  
• I tried uninstalling every driver and iTunes software
  
• Despite not being visible in Windows Explorer, iTunes can always access the contents with no issue
  
• it has a tiny moments when it starts working, but overall import fails sooner or later and never copies all 3k photos. Mostly MSPhotos don't show any content, just failure message, sometimes it shows it's content and acts as I can select what to import, but as described fails sooner or later
  
• iTunes can successfully copy entire phone.
  
  Other attempts
  
• I tried multiple free 3rd party SW, all of them either failed or seemed like to be usable only after buying their extended version
  
• I tried using iTunes for Syncing the Photos
  
  • I maybe don't know how to use it, or it is faulty too. But I've set the directory where my Photos should be synced, but sync seems to just backup the phone and creates tiny 'Photo Database file', but no photo actually gets copied onto PC.
