Method 3 Back up Photos, Videos and Music from iPhone to PC

iPhone has many wonderful and practical feature, not the least of which are its high definition photography and lossless media player. In this case, users love to use iPhone as their daily digital camera taking quantities of photos, or buying videos and music from iTunes for entertainment on the go. However, both of them take too much space leading to a full iPhone storage. But you don’t want to lose those memorable photos and nice videos and music yet. Then, what should you do? Back up iPhone photo, videos and music to PC must be the best solution.

You can either back up them to iTunes or iCloud while both of them have critical defects. As for iTunes, once you need to back up a certain kind of file from iPhone to PC, all other kinds of files will come along. For iCloud, which is worse, people keep complaining about data loss and slow speed in the course of transfer.

But still, IOTransfer – the best iPhone transfer software helps you repair iPhone storage full issue in the best way.

Launch IOTransfer, on the main interface, select Photos, Music and Videos. Click on Transfer to PC and all of them will be backed up to a PC folder within seconds.

Method 4 Turn Off iCloud Drive

You must be wondering why iCloud should be turned off since it is a way to back up your iPhone data in order to save more space?

But if you want to move your files to iCloud for backup and then delete them from your iPhone to save more space, you are too naïve. Once you remove your photos, videos or anything like that, they are gone forever, from both iCloud and your device. But that’s not the point. Users always complain iCloud somehow takes much storage on their devices and here is an example:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7890193.
