拥有多台Apple设备的最大好处之一就是它们可以相互交流，形成自己的生态系统。
如果您想将文件或其他数据从 iPhone 传输到Mac，反之亦然，有多种方法。这些是最简单和最有效的。
iTunes 不见了
如果您不了解 Apple 最新的操作系统和功能，您可能会感到惊讶，从 macOS Catalina开始， (Catalina)iTunes不再有任何迹象。具有讽刺意味的是，您仍然可以找到 iTunes 的唯一地方是Microsoft Windows。
iTunes 功能现已集成到 macOS 中。您的音乐现在在Apple Music中；您购买的电影在Apple TV 中，播客在Podcasts应用程序中，等等。iPad 和 iPhone 等设备现在是独立的；在您使用它们之前，它们不必与台式计算机同步。
此外，Apple将所有购买存储在云端。因此，您可以通过打开特定应用程序并从互联网流式传输或下载
这些内容来访问您在任一设备上的 iPhone 和Mac之间同步的所有内容。(Mac)
1.空投
Mac、iPhone 和 iPad 都具有AirDrop 作为无线文件共享(AirDrop as the wireless file-sharing)功能。您可以使用蓝牙(Bluetooth)和Wi-Fi与附近任何其他支持 AirDrop 的设备快速共享文件。您不需要连接到同一个Wi-Fi连接；它是高速本地文件传输。
AirDrop是从iPhone 和Mac上的(Mac)控制中心(Control Center)激活的。您可以通过在控制中心(Control Center)选择它的按钮来打开或关闭它，或者您可以展开它的部分，然后选择是只有您的联系人还是每个人都可以向您空投(AirDrop)东西。我们发现，如果AirDrop不能顺利
运行，将AirDrop临时设置为Everyone可以解决大多数问题。
下面介绍如何通过控制中心访问(Control Center)AirDrop。
- 按住无线功能面板的中央。
- 打开或关闭AirDrop(Toggle AirDrop)。您可以按住它以打开其快速设置。
- 选择您希望从谁那里接收文件。
以下是通过 macOS控制中心(Control Center)访问AirDrop的方法。
- 打开中心，选择AirDrop右侧的小箭头。
- (Turn AirDrop)为您想要接收信息的位置
打开 AirDrop 。
- 要将 iPhone 中的某些内容共享到另一台设备（如Mac），请打开任何内容的共享菜单，然后选择AirDrop作为共享目标。
- 这与您通过Twitter、电子邮件等共享内容所用的菜单相同。您应该会在附近的设备列表中看到您的Mac ；选择它，然后在询问时确认Mac上的(Mac)AirDrop传输。该文件将传输，并且该位置应自动在Finder(Finder)中打开。
- 要使用AirDrop从Mac共享，请在(Mac)Finder或桌面(Desktop)上右键单击要共享的任何内容，然后选择 Share > AirDrop。
- 选择您的 iPhone 作为目的地，然后在 iPhone 上确认传输。
2.使用有线连接
虽然AirDrop非常方便，但有时也很挑剔。在 iPhone 和Mac(Mac)之间移动文件的最快和最简单的方法是使用USB数据线连接。虽然本文发表后发布的 iPhone 将在某个时候配备USB-C端口，但目前所有 iPhone 均配备 Lightning 端口。(USB-C)这意味着您需要使用闪电转USB-C或USB-A适配器将 iPhone 连接到Mac。
您可能需要在一台或两台设备上进行软件更新才能使电缆传输正常工作。如果提示下载并安装必要的软件，请完成该过程并继续。
- 当您将 iPhone 插入Mac时，iPhone 会提示您信任刚刚插入的电脑。
- 选择信任(Select Trust)，然后输入您的密码以对其进行授权。
- 从Finder(Finder)窗口
的边栏中选择您的 iPhone 。
您可以像使用Mac上的任何其他文件夹一样使用它，并将文件拖放到 iPhone 或从 iPhone 拖放文件。
3. 使用 iCloud
Apple拥有自己的云文件存储服务，称为 iCloud。虽然你可以支付少量费用来获得大量的云存储空间，但每个Apple ID都有 5GB 的免费存储空间。您复制到 iCloud 文件夹中的任何文件都将同步到您的所有设备。
在 iPhone 上，您可以在“文件”(Files)应用程序中找到 iCloud 文件夹。
在Mac上，您会在Finder边栏中找到您的 iCloud 驱动器。
4. 照片应用
iCloud Drive文件夹并不是在iPhone 和Mac之间同步内容的唯一Apple解决方案。您在 iPhone 上制作的任何 Apple Watch屏幕截图、照片或视频都保存在“(Any Apple Watch)照片(Photos)”应用中。然后，这将自动同步到Mac上的(Mac)照片(Photos)应用程序。
您无需执行任何特殊操作即可以这种方式传输照片，但您可以手动强制从一台设备同步到另一台设备，方法是使用照片或视频刷新设备上的照片应用程序。(Photos)
在 iPhone 应用程序中，向上滑动照片网格以手动上传最新的未同步照片和视频。否则，当您使用 Wi-Fi 互联网连接时，它应该会自动发生。在Mac上，等待几秒钟，以便从云端下载同步内容。然后将照片或视频从应用程序拖放到Mac上的其他位置。
5.使用电报
App Store上有多个适用于 iOS 和 macOS 的聊天应用程序。但Telegram有一个巧妙的功能，您可以将文件发送给自己。它称为已保存的消息(Saved Messages)，您可以在此处将任何文件附加到与自己的聊天中。您保存到此应用程序部分的任何内容都像一个免费的云存储驱动器。Telegram还以允许您在不进行任何压缩的情况下发送照片和视频而著称。
在Telegram应用程序中，您可以在Settings > Saved Messages下或聊天列表的顶部找到它。在Telegram桌面应用程序中，您还可以在聊天列表的顶部找到它。
6. 第三方云服务
如果您只使用Apple设备，iCloud 很棒，但如果您想将Windows和Android设备混合使用，则需要不同的解决方案。Dropbox、Google Drive、Microsoft OneDrive等等。
这些应用程序可让您在支持其客户端或支持其各自网站的网络浏览器的所有设备之间无缝传输数据。
7.使用通用剪贴板(Universal Clipboard)在(Between)iPhone 和Mac之间复制和粘贴(Mac)
Apple推出了一项令人印象深刻的功能，让 iOS 和 macOS 共享同一个通用剪贴板(universal clipboard)。只要您有运行 iOS 或 iPadOS 10 或更高版本的 iPhone 5 或第四代 iPad，就可以在运行 macOS Sierra或更高版本
的Mac上使用此功能。(Mac)
首先，确保在 iOS 设备和 macOS 系统上都启用了
Handoff 。
在 iOS 中转到Settings > General > Airplay & Handoff并启用Handoff。
在Mac上，转到Apple Menu > System Preferences > General，然后选中允许在这台Mac和您的 iCloud 设备
之间切换(Handoff)旁边的框。
当您复制进入剪贴板的任何内容时，您可以将其粘贴到Mac上的适当位置，反之亦然。
8. 使用 OTG 驱动器
从 iOS 13 开始，iPhone 包括文件(Files)应用程序并支持外部存储设备。在带有USB-C(USB-C)端口的iPad 上，使用OTG (On The Go) 适配器连接闪存驱动器很简单。在 iPhone 获得USB-C端口之前，如果您想将驱动器连接到手机，您将需要闪电转 USB OTG适配器或带有闪电连接的闪存驱动器。
一旦你有了它，它就是一种在你的 iPhone 和你的Mac(Mac)之间传输数据的快速可靠的方式。请注意，某些并非专为 iPhone 设计的闪存驱动器以及所有USB硬盘驱动器或SSD(SSDs)需要的电量超过 iPhone 所能提供的电量。如果您尝试连接它们，您的 iPhone 会警告您它们需要太多电量。
解决此问题的一种简单方法是使用包含电源直通功能的闪电转USB适配器。(USB)然后，您可以将充电器或移动电源连接到适配器，并为驱动器提供足够的电力，以便它可以与您的手机一起使用。
9. 给自己发电子邮件
这是在设备之间发送文件的最粗暴的方式，但在紧要关头，您可以将文件作为附件通过电子邮件发送，然后在目标设备的电子邮件客户端上打开它。这仅对适合附件限制的小文件有用，但如果您没有时间搞乱设置或复杂的文件复制应用程序，电子邮件是一种几乎永远不会失败的低技术解决方案。
9 Ways to Transfer Files Between iPhone and Mac
One of the bеst things about owning multiple Apple devices is that they can speak to each other, forming their own ecosystem.
If you want to transfer files or other data from your iPhone to your Mac or vice versa, there are many ways. These are the easiest and most effective ones.
iTunes Is Gone
If you’ve been out of the loop with Apple’s latest operating systems and features, you may be surprised there’s no longer any sign of iTunes from macOS Catalina onward. The only place where you’ll still find iTunes is, rather ironically, Microsoft Windows.
iTunes features have now been integrated into macOS. Your music is now in Apple Music; your movie purchases are in Apple TV, podcasts in the Podcasts app, and so on. Devices like iPads and iPhones are now independent; they don’t have to sync with a desktop computer before you can use them.
Also, Apple stores all purchases in the cloud. So you can access all the content you sync between an iPhone and a Mac on either device by opening the specific app and streaming or downloading thet content from the internet.
1. AirDrop
Macs, iPhones, and iPads all have AirDrop as the wireless file-sharing feature. You can quickly share files with any other AirDrop-enabled device nearby using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. You don’t need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi connection; it’s high-speed local file transfer.
AirDrop is activated from the Control Center on your iPhone and Mac. You can turn it on or off by selecting its button in the Control Center, or you can expand its section and then choose if only your contacts or everyone can AirDrop things to you. We find that temporarily setting AirDrop to Everyone resolves most issues if AirDrop doesn’t work smoothly.
Here’s how to access AirDrop through the Control Center.
- Press and hold the center of the wireless feature panel.
- Toggle AirDrop on or off. You can press and hold it to open its quick settings.
- Choose who you’d like to receive files from.
Here’s how to access AirDrop through the macOS Control Center.
- With the center open, select the small arrow to the right of AirDrop.
- Turn AirDrop on for where you’d like to receive information.
- To share something from your iPhone to another device, like a Mac, open the sharing menu for any content and choose AirDrop as the sharing target.
- This is the same menu you would use to share something via Twitter, email, etc. You should see your Mac on the list of nearby devices; select it and then confirm the AirDrop transfer on the Mac when asked. The file will transfer, and the location should automatically open up in Finder.
- To share from your Mac using AirDrop, right-click on any content you want to share in Finder or on your Desktop and then select Share > AirDrop.
- Choose your iPhone as the destination and then confirm the transfer on the iPhone.
2. Use a Wired Connection
While AirDrop is super convenient, it can sometimes be finicky. The fastest and easiest way to move files between your iPhone and Mac is to use a USB cable connection. While iPhones released after the publication of this article will have USB-C ports at some point, currently all iPhones have Lightning ports. This means you’ll need to use a Lightning to USB-C or USB-A adapter to connect your iPhone to your Mac.
You may require a software update on one or both devices for a cable transfer to work. If prompted to download and install the necessary software, complete that process and proceed.
- When you plug your iPhone into your Mac, the iPhone will prompt you to trust the computer you just plugged it into.
- Select Trust and then enter your passcode to authorize it.
- Select your iPhone from the sidebar of the Finder window.
You can use it like any other folder on your Mac and drag and drop files to and from the iPhone.
3. Use iCloud
Apple has its own cloud file storage service known as iCloud. While you can pay a small fee to get a sizeable amount of cloud storage, every Apple ID has 5GB of free storage. Any files you copy into the iCloud folder will be synced to all your devices.
On an iPhone, you can find the iCloud folder inside the Files app.
On your Mac, you’ll find your iCloud drive in the Finder sidebar.
4. The Photos App
The iCloud Drive folder isn’t the only Apple solution that syncs things between your iPhone and Mac. Any Apple Watch screenshots, photos, or videos you make on your iPhone are saved in the Photos app. This will then automatically sync to the Photos app on your Mac.
You don’t have to do anything special to transfer photos this way, but you can manually force a sync from one device to the other, by refreshing the Photos app on the device with the photos or videos.
In the iPhone app, swipe up on the photo grid to manually upload the latest unsynced photos and videos. Otherwise, it should happen automatically when you’re on a Wi-Fi internet connection. On a Mac, wait a few seconds for the synced content to download from the cloud. Then drag and drop photos or videos from the app to another location on your Mac.
5. Use Telegram
Several chat apps are available for iOS and macOS on the App Store. But Telegram has a neat feature where you can send files to yourself. It’s called Saved Messages, and you can attach any file to the chat with yourself here. Whatever you save to this app section acts like a free cloud storage drive. Telegram is also notable for letting you send photos and videos without any compression.
On the Telegram app, you’ll find it under Settings > Saved Messages or at the top of your chat list. In the Telegram desktop app, you’ll also find it at the top of your chat list.
6. Third-party Cloud Services
iCloud is great if you only use Apple devices, but if you want to mix Windows and Android devices into the equation, you’ll need a different solution. Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and so many more.
These apps let you transfer data seamlessly between all devices that support their clients or support a web browser for their respective websites.
7. Copy and Paste Between iPhone and Mac With Universal Clipboard
Apple has introduced an impressive feature that lets iOS and macOS share the same universal clipboard. As long as you have an iPhone 5 or 4th-generation iPad running iOS or iPadOS 10 or later, you can use this feature with a Mac running macOS Sierra or later.
To begin, ensure that Handoff is enabled on both the iOS device and the macOS system.
In iOS go to Settings > General > Airplay & Handoff and enable Handoff.
On a Mac, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > General and then check the box next to Allow Handoff between this Mac and your iCloud devices.
When you copy anything that goes to the clipboard, you can paste it into an appropriate place on your Mac, or vice versa.
8. Use an OTG Drive
As of iOS 13, iPhone includes the Files app and supports external storage devices. On iPads with USB-C ports, it’s simple to connect a flash drive with an OTG (On The Go) adapter. Until iPhones get USB-C ports, you’ll either need a Lightning-to-USB OTG adapter or a flash drive with a Lightning connection if you want to connect a drive to your phone.
Once you have this, it’s a fast and reliable way to transfer data between your iPhone and your Mac. Do note that some flash drives that aren’t designed specifically for use with iPhones, and all USB hard drives or SSDs, require more power than an iPhone can provide. If you try to connect them, your iPhone will warn you that they need too much power.
An easy way to solve this is by using a Lightning to USB adapter that includes power passthrough. Then you can connect a charger or power bank to the adapter and provide enough power to the drive so that it will work with your phone.
9. Email Yourself
This is the crudest way to send files between devices, but in a pinch, you can email a file as an attachment and then open it on the email client of the destination device. This is only useful for small files that fit into the attachment limit, but if you don’t have time to mess around with settings or complicated file copy apps, email is a low-tech solution that almost never fails.
