My photos were not transferred or displayed. What do I do?
- If your photos were not transferred, it means you are using the iCloud Photos feature. Disable iCloud photos and try again.
- If your photos are displayed as blank icons, don’t worry – they are probably just in HEIC format, which your PC doesn’t recognize. Install our free solution for viewing HEIC files and they will be displayed correctly.
