The photos came in to my I5S attached to a text message. I've never set the phone up for email, so sending them to myself is out. I have what appears to be a white USB cord that I have only used plugged into an adapter to charge the battery. How can I move the photos to a local machine so that I can maybe forward them to someone via email? What software and/or hardware do I need? The local machine is running Win 10.

All software offered by Apple (iTunes ...) was way too complicated for me. I took the white USB cable and connected it to the USB laptop input. Then ask your iPhone, if the PC can access it, answer "yes" and then select the Windows Explorer in the PC. There you will find the iPhone as an extra drive, open it and the photos will appear and you can copy them to the PC. I hope it works on your operating system as well.

If the cord you have for the device is a charge/synch cord, a computer should recognize the device as an accessible external drive, and you should be able to explore, or browse the device. The device MAY have some settings, such as charge only, synchronize, allow remote connections, transfer files, what kinds, et cetera, so watch BOTH the device, and the computer for prompts to allow full access. It is also possible the cord you have is charge only, and there will be no apparent connection, or access to the device through a computer. If so, you can buy a charge/synch cable for $5 or less, check quickie marts, gas stations, Family Dollar, Dollar General, et cetera, the dual purpose cords are much more common now, but I scrounge at thrift shops, and find charge-only constantly.

I know of only one way, which is via itunes. It goes on your computer and phone (might be there already) and they sync. Unless you use linux, in which case no software exists. The phone will send it to 'the cloud', where it will be available to your computer, thus transferred. I was told there might be other ways, so you might want to do a search for them (duckduckgo.com, not google, which tracks everything). In my experience, you cannot hook the phone directly to a computer because apple doesn't like people accessing their filesystems. This is possible on android. Won't hurt to try, though.

Win 10 announced that it saw the phone and did some sort of setup. As long as the USB cord was plugged in, there was an icon for the iPhone, and a little hunt'n pecking showed what purported to be a drive of some sort with about 4.9 GB available. But a couple of cursory attempts to copy a file to it didn't work. And I couldn't find any sign of files or photos. So I sent a text back asking that the photos be re-sent to my email address. Which will solve the problem. At least I did confirm that the cords I have are charge and data, for whatever that might ever be worth. :-) Thanks for the various responses.
