I have moved to a Galaxy S9 after being an iPhone user since 2009. I love the phone, but I can't exactly figure out how to transfer my photos to my Mac running OS Mojave. I had installed Samsung Smart Switch, but it appears that this application is for getting information from my old iOS device to my S9. Or I have to do a whole backup and then access the files from the computer where it backed up to. That's really time-consuming! So I would rather transfer only photos from Android to Mac via USB.

Problem 1: How to transfer files from a Galaxy S7 to Mac
Hi. I have a Galaxy S7 Edge with a 32GB micro SD card. The card is almost full and thus I would like to backup the contents of the card to my Mac and then transfer those back onto a new, larger micro SD card. However, when attempting to connect over USB (the cable supplied originally with the S7 Edge), the Mac is unable to connect. 'Android File Transfer' tells me 'Could not connect to device' and 'Try reconnecting or restarting your device.'This persists after reconnection of the USB cable, and after power cycling the S7 device. I've also confirmed that when I pull down the ‘window shade' on the S7, there is an update stating 'Android System' and it's set to 'File Transfer.'
Note I've tried other settings and those aren't working either. I've also tried ‘Coolmuster Android Assistant for Mac' and that doesn't seem to work either. Several google searches leave me still without any solution to this problem. I'm hoping you may have some insight? I would really appreciate any suggestions you might have. — Chris.Ambrozic
Solution: Hi Chris. Computers like PCs or Macs generally are equipped with a suite of USB software called drivers to allow them to recognize connections from another device like an Android smartphone. In most cases, these USB drivers are developed by the operating system manufacturers such as Microsoft for Windows-based PCs and Apple for Macs. These drivers, just like any software or operating system sometimes need updates. So, if your Mac has not been updated lately and there's a pending update for its Mac OS, make sure to install it first before attempting to connect your S7 to it again. If your Mac already runs that latest available update at this time, you can do further troubleshooting by following the steps below.

Problem 2: Galaxy S7 edge keeps freezing, stops responding when in normal mode
Hey! My Samsung S7 edge suddenly started to freeze. Once it froze, it didn't respond to anything. Not even the 'power button + volume down button' or 'power button + volume up + home button.'I went to the closest technician, and they backed up my data, restored firmware and gave my phone back. Once i got home, deleted almost every app on the phone, since i thought it was somehow related to the crashing. The phone somehow still acted strange by crashing and freezing, but the 'volume down + power button' did the trick. Today it froze, so i booted it in safe mode. Everything was okay for 10 minutes, but then when i decided to power it up back to normal, it restarted and froze again, unresponsibly to anything. Is there anything i can do with it? Because the local technician said that they can do another firmware restore, but since i still have the problem after it it feels unnecessary. Best regards! — Mantas Gusmantas
Solution: Hi Mantas. If the phone was working normally when it was running in safe mode, then a bad third party app is most probably to blame. Observing the phone for 10 minutes though is not long enough to allow you to confirm that. Try restarting the device again to safe mode for at least 24 hours. In this mode, only pre-installed apps should be running so if the phone runs perfectly fine throughout the observation period, you can bet a third party app is to blame.
To know which app is causing the trouble, you'll need to use the method of elimination. Here's how:
- Uninstall a third party app. Remove the most recently installed app first. If you can still remember what app you install right before the phone started to freezing up, remove that app first.
- After you uninstall an app, check if the problem is still present by using the phone as usual for up to 10 minutes. If it works fine without the hiccup, then the newly uninstalled app is probably the one causing it.
- If the problem returns, uninstall another third party app.
- Repeat step number 2.
- Do Steps 1-3 until you've identified the source of the bug.
Problem 3: Galaxy S7 missing Software update option under Settings
So when I try to update my S7 edge it fails to update everytime. And when I go to applications in my setting and look for the software update app it isn't there so the only way I can access it is when the notification pops up at the top and if I hold down on the notification it brings me to the disable, force stop options and the apps data but I'm not able to press force stop or disable like it said in your article so what do I do? The version it says it is is 2.0.22-0. — Kammy
App On Macbook Pro To Download Pics Off Galaxy S7 S8
Solution: Hi Kammy. It's a bit suspicious that you can't find the Software update option under Settings app. If this Galaxy S7 edge was provided by your carrier, make sure to contact them to ask if they intentionally removed the Software update option. In a lot carrier-provided S7s we examined, software update should still be available. It definitely is present in international versions and those models that are not locked to carriers.
If your carrier will say that software update option should be present under Settings, then something must have removed it. We're not aware of any malware that may do such but there's always a chance that it can happen. We don't know enough about your phone history to be of help in giving you an accurate answer.
To be on the safe side, you can try to perform a factory reset to see if the Software update option will resurface afterwards. Here's how to do that:
- Create a backup of your important files such as photos, videos, etc.
- Turn off your Samsung Galaxy S7.
- Press and then hold the Home and Volume UP keys, then press and hold the Power key.
- When the Samsung Galaxy S7 shows on the screen, release the Power key but continue holding the Home and Volume Up keys.
- When the Android logo shows, you may release both keys and leave the phone be for about 30 to 60 seconds.
- Using the Volume Down key, navigate through the options and highlight ‘wipe data / factory reset.'
- Once highlighted, you may press the Power key to select it.
- Now highlight the option Yes — delete all user data using the Volume Down key and press the Power button to select it.
- Wait until your phone is finished doing the Master Reset. Once completed, highlight ‘Reboot system now' and press the Power key.
- The phone will now reboot longer than usual.
