Broken iPhone 5

Hi All,

I had an iPhone 5 there at the startof the year and I dropped it and well smasled the screen totally off.

I am only getting around to trying to offload whatever I had on it, most importantly the music and photos. iTunes is recognising the phone at the minute and I am doing a back up and it is downloading all my purchased music. The problem is I cant seem to access any photos. Its not appearing as a removable device where I can go into any camera folder and iTunes doesnt seem to be picking up on any photos on the device?

Would anyone have any suggestions? Keeping in mine the screen is totally smashed so theres no option of using the actual phone at all.

Cheers,
Gary

If you're using a Mac the photos will show up in iPhoto. No idea how it works on windows machines, Google?
Btw you could get the phone repaired, apple will likely even replace it for around €250 (that won't get your photos back though). If it's just the screen a local shop will fix that for around €80 (and then you'll still have your photos). Just in case you were gonna bin it...

Thanks for the reply. I googled it and it isnt answering. I have gotten a good phone since so there is no need to get the iphone fixed, I would just have liked to recover the photos that were on it

You can look through the backup and get the photos from that
