Dear Experts

I am looking to transfer videos from my computer windows OS to iPhone not vice versa

I used AnyTrns and it says transferred completed successfully but I don't know where are those videos (not in photos library) on my iPhone x ?

I contacted AnyTrans on Disqus discussion (not a proper forum) but no reply yet.

Any other alternative itool you would recommend preferably (not necessarily) has a discussion fourm

Thanks
 
What about using a cloud-based service? Upload your videos to the cloud and download them on the iPhone. I use iCloud and Documents by Readle, but DropBox would be good for cross-platform support.

However, iTunes will only sync the selected videos in the library when it is syncing videos from iTunes Library to iPhone; that is to say, iTunes will erase all the un-selected items. If you have some non-purchased videos that aren’t saved in the iTunes library,

I'm not sure that I understand your problem. If you put all of your videos in iTunes use iTunes to sync them to your phone. Yes, if you don't select a video for synching it will be removed from your phone during the next sync. It will still exist in iTunes so you can always check it and synch it when you want it on your phone.

I have no purchased iTunes content. All the videos I synch to my phone are ripped.

The gotcha, of course, is that iTunes does not support all codecs.

This was my concern about iTunes

Why not save the non-purchases in your iTunes library?

I have a ton of ripped movies that I save in iTunes and in another folder on my drive just in case.
