If anyone has a *faster* system (my equipment is ancient and it's still
faster than anything you can actually *do* and prove you did), let me know.

1 minute 55 seconds from the Windows file system to iOS' DCIM folders:
http://www.bild.me/bild.php?file=9185854windows_to_ios.jpg

If anyone has a more *universal* system (it works with iOS, Android,
Windows, and Linux file systems, no matter who owns them and no matter the
"ID") system, let me know.

If someone has a more *free* system in addition (there is zero software
added to the native operating systems), let me know.

If someone has a *simpler* system (you just select and slide) let me know.

If you can't come up with a faster, freeer, simpler, and more universal
system, and yet, if you claim that the method is "obvious", then (a) you're
full of ****, and (b) let me know and I'll test your "better" system.

HINT: Everyone who said it was "obvious" already proved they can't do it.

Meanwhile, it takes two minutes for me to transfer 400 photos, where I can
easily transfer scores of Gigabytes of movie files as I did in the OP.

From anywhere to anywhere else. Sans a shred of additional software.


All this great, but the 90% of the computer users don't care about this.
My 2 co-workers and I support around 800 computers in house 200 in the
field, Windows and Mac. The users just want to do everything the
simplest way, without leaving their browser, Word, or email application,
let alone having to restart their computer or run virtual software. We
have people who don't understand that a simple restart could easily take
care of many of their small problems.

I work in the real world and we simply don't have time to run around and
transfer images and files for people. We teach them the skills they need
to use their computers in the environment they work in. What they use or
do at home is not our concern.

I am glad you have this hobby of pointing out the shortcomings of people
using Apple products, but I see people everyday that are steadfast in
their love and advocacy of the Windows and Android utilizing devices. I
figure whatever works for them, meets their needs, and they are
comfortable using is great for me and my coworkers in IT.

Earlier, in another thread, you asked me what I had to contribute and to
try to prove you wrong. First, whatever I said would have been shot down
(as you will probably do with this post). Second, I beleive you are out
to prove everyone else wrong and you want to pound your own chest to
prove intelligence, experience, and knowledge. We each contribute to
society what we can. Some folks want to just do their job as best they
can and others want to be King of the Hill. I have received some good
tips and knowledge on USENET that I can use in life and my job. I am
confident I will get more in the future.

I wish you the best in your quest to belittle many here and Mac users in
general.

One last thing, which claw hammer is the best, curved claw or straight
claw? My answer, what you have and what job you are using it for. I have
both and use them on a regular basis.

Here's one of THE simplest ways to copy photos from an iOS device to any
Mac:

1. Connect the iOS device to the Mac with its USB cable.
2. On the Mac, open /Applications/Image Capture.
3. Select the iOS device in the sidebar.
4. Click Import and choose/create a folder for the photos.


I know that. I have assisted others do it all the time. Now if I can
just get him to help me get my images off the SD card in my camera
without removing it from the camera, without going wireless.

That's satire, Arlen. People with an actual sense of humor will get it.

This isn't my first rodeo on Usenet, so allow me to allay your concerns.

The proposed method works perfectly with:
a. Any desktop (Winodws, Linux, or the Mac)
b. Any mobile device (iOS or Android)

If people don't care about that, then they don't belong on this thread.

My 2 co-workers and I support around 800 computers in house 200 in the
field, Windows and Mac. The users just want to do everything the

let alone having to restart their computer or run virtual software. We

What could be simpler than just plugging in any iOS or Android mobile
device on the planet, and sliding any file the users wants to and from the
desktop and mobile device?

I work in the real world and we simply don't have time to run around and
transfer images and files for people. We teach them the skills they need
to use their computers in the environment they work in. What they use or
do at home is not our concern.


If you really think _that_ simply sliding files is complex, then you may
need to revisit your definition of "complex", since that's trivially simple
to do.

I am glad you have this hobby of pointing out the shortcomings of people
using Apple products, but I see people everyday that are steadfast in

You don't seem to have any concept of the mind of the Apple Usenet poster.
The typical Apple poster on Usenet lives in a world of misguided imaginary
beliefs, which have zero basis in actual facts.

We prove this to be the case every single day, with almost every post made
by the likes of Lewis, Jolly Roger, Savageduck, nospam, BK@OnRamp, Chris,
Alan Baker, Tim Streater, etc.

For decades, I've been studying the Apple user, where I've written up many
threads which point out how vastly different the Apple Usenet poster is
from normal adults.

Here's just one...
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/18ARDsEOPzM/veU8FwAjBQAJ

Earlier, in another thread, you asked me what I had to contribute and to
try to prove you wrong. First, whatever I said would have been shot down
(as you will probably do with this post). Second, I beleive you are out
to prove everyone else wrong and you want to pound your own chest to
prove intelligence, experience, and knowledge.


I'm here to prove that the Apple Apologists are _exactly_ what they prove
themselves to be, in every post they make.

You astutely picked up on that I am on a crusade, which is interesting, as
the Apple Apologists, themselves, are clueless that this is my goal ...

You'll notice that I only speak facts.
Do you know why?

*HINT: Facts are the weakness of the Apple Apologists.*
a. They just make everything up
b. They never supply facts (since it's all just made up)
c. They can't stand facts (because facts erode their belief system)

It's the same way to refute religious zealots, by the way.

*Their entire believe system doesn't appear to have room for facts.*
It's their inbred weakness.

That's why I only speak facts.
They have no defense against facts.

They're not used to dealing with people who actually deal in facts.

We each contribute to
society what we can. Some folks want to just do their job as best they
can and others want to be King of the Hill. I have received some good
tips and knowledge on USENET that I can use in life and my job. I am
confident I will get more in the future.


I've contributed vastly to Usenet, with so many tutorials I can't count
them, many of which break new ground.

This thread, for example, from yesterday, already broke new ground for many
people (including me) where, sans the Apple trolls, we made tremendous
progress in just two days.
http://alt.comp.os.windows-10.narkive.com/EOP3G3NM/quick-assessment-of-3-windows-tools-to-read-write-linux-filesystems-on-dual-boot-desktops

You probably don't know this, but scores of times in just the last year
alone, I've posted anonymous threads to the Apple newsgroups, and the same
threads to the adult newsgroups (on pertinent technical topics).

Almost invariably the Apple newsgroups' threads devolve into instant
childish drivel - time and again - no matter the question or the "person"
asking the question - whereas the exact same question asked on the adult
newsgroups comes to fruition almost every time.

If you don't realize that the Apple Usenet poster is NOT a normal adult,
then you won't be able to comprehend that statistically valid fact.

HINT: *There's a _REASON_ Apple users gravitate to Apple products!*

I wish you the best in your quest to belittle many here and Mac users in
general.


You have one thing wrong - which is that the Mac users themselves belittle
themselves by posting the drivel that they post.

For example, look up _anything_ ever said by the likes of Tim Streater or
Alan Baker, as just a canonical example.

Everything they've ever posted to Usenet, is childish fifth-grade drivel.
Most of the Mac posters are like that, as again, we proved by posting the
same thread to the Mac groups, and then to the adult groups (e.g., Windows
and Linux).

*The contrast in the childish responses from the Mac groups is astounding!*

One last thing, which claw hammer is the best, curved claw or straight
claw? My answer, what you have and what job you are using it for. I have
both and use them on a regular basis.


I disagree with your assessment but that's because you clearly don't know
as much about the *mobile* products as I do, with respect to the stark,
utter, and absolute difference in functionality.

However, I agree wholeheartedly with you that using Apple devices is like
using a ball-peen hammer to try to remove a nail, where there is no claw.

I've said this many times, although I normally equate the iOS device with a
butterknife and Android with a chainsaw, both of which claim to cut down
trees.

The Apple user is *afraid* of the power of the chain saw, which is proven
time and again that they complain about how dangerous Android is compared
to iOS.

But at the very same time, I can list just off the top of my head over a
score of functionality that the Apple butter knife just can't do (e.g.,
automatic phone recording, loading from any app site, using any launcher
you damn well please, debugging WiFi with a typical moving graph of the
wifi signal strength over time of all available access points, etc.).

And, we've asked many times the opposite question, which is a fact, that
there is absolutely zero app functionality on iOS that isn't already on
Android. If there was, someone could come up with it and defend it using
facts (where we already proved many times, facts are the Apple users'
weakness).

Hence, I only speak facts:
a. There's NOTHING by way of app functionality on iOS (all by its itty
bitty self) that isn't _already_ on Android, and,
b. There's PLENTY on Android by way of app functionality (all by its itty
bitty self), that is not on iOS (and likely never will be).

Those are facts which make your "claw hammer" analogy false.

It's not the difference in types of hammers so much as trying to cut down a
tree with a butterknife versus a chainsaw.

HINT: The reasonable user sms prefers I compare an Apple iOS device to a
hand saw, while acceding the Android device is more like a chain saw.

While I realize facts aren't your forte, Jolly Roger, the fact is that Ant
knows this, right?

Ant likely doesn't *own* the devices he's trying to copy to and from (only
he can tell us if that's the case), so, we can't assume anything about the
"apple id", now can we, JollY Roger.

HINT: *Jolly Roger - you _love_ to play your silly childish games.*

Fact is ... Ant has been spectacularly unsuccessful.

The question (for adults only), is why has Ant, after coming up on three
weeks and counting, still been spectacularly unsuccessful?

Surely Ant is not an Apple Apologists so he is telling the truth that he's
been spectacularly unsuccessful.

Let's ask Ant why this method you propose hasn't worked for him yet, even
after almost three weeks elapsed time trying.

What's funny, and which the user YK should take note, is that the moment we
speak facts, the user Jolly Roger instantly says that only Apple-hating
people speak facts.

You see, facts are the nemesis of people like you, Jolly Roger.

The fact remains that Ant has been spectacularly unsuccessful, hence, it's
pretty clear that you, Jolly Roger, are simply playing your incessant
games.

Remember, Ant may not own the devices he's using, so you can't assume
_anything_ about the Apple ID. Keep that in mind when you play your silly
games, Jolly Roger.

The fact remains that Ant has been spectacularly unsuccessful after 3 weeks
(elapsed time) of trying.

Do you dispute this fact Jolly Roger?
