How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

Hello jcamengual,
I was having the same problem you're having - for those that don't understand... I synced photos on to my ipad which placed them inside "photos" not cameral roll. I then sold me laptop as I thought I had no need for it. When I bought my new iMac I tried to use my external hard drive which had my back up on, however my hard drive no longer works. Thus unable to retreive my photos on to my iMac!
Anyway... long of the short of it is theres no easy way. But there are a few ways. I'm currently using icloud's photo stream. As long as you have photo stream set up on your mac you can create a shared stream on the ipad with a friend. This shared stream will appear on your mac, you can then "import photos" straight from the shared stream.
Alternativley you could use something like drop box. Sync your pictures from iPad to drop box. Then download from drop box to Mac. As I said, no easy way that I have found but this does work. It just takes a long time.
Key Facts:
You can have 5000 photos inside a sharred stream
You can have 100 sharred streams
Therefore you can stream 500,000 photos - I hope you don't have that many.

  • How do I delete pictures not in camera roll

    How do I delete pictures previously synced to icloud, but no longer in my camera roll?
    (I want to get a new phone and transfer only the pictures currently on my iphone 4S camera roll)
    I'd like to avoid having to delete all pictures I've taken when information is transferred to my new phone.
    I currently have the icloud settings turned off, however I have had icloud on in the past which has
    many pictures I no longer want.
    How do I login to icloud on my pc?

    Hi bckop,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    You can import the pictures and video currently on your iPhone (camera roll) to your computer.  Then you can manually sync with iTunes to copy only the images you want to your iPhone.   If you don't want the images in your Photo Stream to appear on your iPhone and PC, you can turn Photostream off in your iCloud settings.  You can also delete images from your Photo Stream that you no longer want.
    Here are a few articles to help you with this:

  • How can I print to a IP address printer from my iPad and a iMac

    I have a HP Laser Jet 1100 that I have converted to a Networked printer via TP link print server so I wont need a computer running 24/7, how can I get my iPad 4th Gen and a iMac to print on it, IP 192.168.1.13
    Thanks

    I dont think you will be able to print directly to your ricoh printer.  It is not on the list of airprint machines, and none of the ricoh apps seemed aimed at printing from a pad.
    You will need to get an app such as print and share, or printopia, etc and print via your computer.

  • How can i upload pictures and videos to facebook from my ipad?

    The problem started when I updated my ipad2 to ios 6 and now In the app when i try to choose a picture it says "this app does not have access to your photos or videos. You can enable access on Privacy Settings". I searched and It doesn't have that option, so how do i change it? Or if it is there, where?

    Settings --> Privacy --> Facebook or Photos

  • HT201302 can you download videos not on camera roll from iPad to computer?

    i have transferred go pro videos to my iPad however they are not downloading to the computer when i try to import to iPhoto…why wouldn't they show up..? i need these photos on my computer is there any way to get them to the computer…?

    Where are they on your iPod?
    Does that app use file sharing?
    iOS: About File Sharing
    If so use file sharing.
    Otherwise yo will need a third-party program. iFunBox is free but may not work. Paid programs like PhoneView and TouchCopy should work.

    How can I send pictures not embedded, but as an attachment? THX

    I had the same problem. I closed  the message, tried again selecting the correct imessage contact number and it worked.
    I'm guessing I first selected a non-imessage phone number and it got stuck in a gray/can't send mode (bug).

  • How can I add photos in the Camera roll to My photo stream if they were taken prior to icloud being activated?

    How can I add photos in the Camera roll to My photo stream if they were taken prior to icloud being activated?

    You have a couple of options:
    Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot.  This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
    Email the photos one at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll.  This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once.  Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll.  These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream.  (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)

    Not out of the box. However, you might want to try an app like FileBrowser to access the TC on an iOS device.

  • How can I move the items in camera roll to my PC?

    How can I move the items in camera roll to my PC. The only option I see is to e-mail each one. Are there other options?

    When you plug you iphone into the computer you should get a box that pops up with the heading "Apple iPhone" and below it says "camera connected". Your computer is treating the iPhone like your digital camera. Below this is several choises. Choose "Microsoft scanner and camera wizard". This will lead you through the steps to create a folder in your computer photo file and you can copy all your photos to that file.

  • Someone stole my iPhone I have find my iPhone app but it's not working how can I add my iPhone to d app from my iPad???

    Someone stole my iPhone I have find my iPhone app but it's not working how can I add my iPhone to d app from my iPad???

    Having the app is irrelevant.
    The ONLY thing that matters is whether "Find My iPhone" was enabled on the missing device before it was lost/stolen.  If it was not enabled, there is nothing that can be done.

  • How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    If your Verizon account is an IMAP account you can create folders on the iPad via the Edit button when you are in the account. If you see an edit button in the window where your inbox, draft folder, sent folder and trash folder appear in that account - tap on it and an Add Mailbox button will pop up at the bottom of the window. If there is no Edit button there - your account is not an IMAP account and you cannot create folders on the iPad in the mail app.

    how can I easily remove a group of photos from my iPad?

    Iif the photos were synced to the iPad they can only be removed by connecting to iTunes on your computer, unselecting the photos folder that you synced to the iPad and then follow that with a sync.
    IF the photos are in the camera roll, open the camera roll album, tap the as select button in the upper right corner, tap on each photo that you want to delete in order to select them and then tap the trash can icon.
