    How do I download all of my photos from MyPhone service? the only way I can see to get them of the MyPhone site is by clicking on each one in the archive and clicking on "Download to MyPC". That's going to take a while with 300 photos. I thought the beta allowed you to move the photos over to SkyDrive or your computer very easily? Can someone help??

    thanks

    Hi NocturnalMe,

     Thanks for using "My Phone" Service. The current behavior is to download one photo at a time. I understand that it is time consuming to download photos one at a time especially when there is a huge number of photos to be downloaded.

     Instead, the photos could be shared easily to windows live, facebook or myspace and take advantage of the rich photo management capability extended by these sites to download to your PC. I know that this is one additional step but at this moment, this is an alternative.

    Thanks,
    Paul.

    there's dark blue link "Select all" and "unselect all" at the bottom of the page, where you can select all photos on a page.
    This is not as good as select all 300 of your pictures, but it alleviates the pain somewhat.
    And we will definitely consider this in our future work. :)
