I found out why I could not get the photos out of my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 phone into my computer using Adobe Photo Shop Element's 13. I had the wrong cable or the cable didn't want to work. I used another cable and was able to get the photos out of my smart phone easily like it was suppose to work. Now I can get my smart phone photos into my computer easily and then share them with facebook, Instagram and any thing else on the internet. Happy camper now. Not all mini usb to regular usb cables are the same. And then there are micro usb to regular usb cables. I spent $150 on adapters for diffent type of computer cables just this last week. mini display port to HDMI, VGA or DIV are just a few of those adaptor that I purchased. Then I got some camera attachment lens that clip over the smart phone camera lens to take macro and telephoto pictures using the smart phone. One was a fish eye camera lens that produces extremely wide angled pictures. LOL
Take a selfie with that and you will have a picture that not many others can do with a smart phone.
