How do i save a picture to the camera roll from a text message in ios 7

I am attempting to save a picture from a text message to my camera roll. However when i hold the picture the options are "copy/More" More gives the options to delete or forward via text message. And if i press copy it only copies it to be pasted. In the past i was given several options to send the pic via email/text/save to camera roll/drop box etc.
Please advise as to how i can save pictures from my text to the camera roll.
Thank you!

If you receive a picture via email or text message in ios 7 and when you press the action icon to save the picture and you do not get the option to save to your camera roll. Press and hold on the the image and you will get an overlay pop up to save the image. I have no idea why some attachments don't have option in action menu to save in the camera roll but by experimentation and earned frustration I found the above to work in certain situations.
Be well and have fun and feel rewarded in your frustrations. For without challenges, life would be an utter bore.

I can't save a picture to my camera roll from an email

I emailed a picture from my MBP to myself then downloaded the email on my IPhone 4S. When I tried to open the picturethe only options I had were to email the pic, post to FB or Twitter or print it out. There used to be an option of saving th picture to the camera roll. Where has this option gone? IPhone 4S IOS6.1

There still should be an option to save to camera roll.
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

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 you export multiple photos to the Camera Roll?

The option to save multiple images to the Camera Roll does not work on my iPad 2. I tap Share, then tap Camera Roll and a list of options shows up. However, the options All and Selected are greyed out. Whatever I tried to do, they stay grey. This is realy frustrating. Any advise and help will be appreciated!

I am a huge "fanboy" and own several Macs. I can assure you that doesn't help this particular problem. In fact I find this iOS iPhoto app to be very un-Apple in the sense that it seems to be an unfiinished product. The interface and capabilities are impressive, and it has a lot of potential, but it feels like a Beta release to me. Lots of bugs and many features that are not yet functional or do not work as described in the help file. Seems that Apple rushed this one out the door. I suspect that many of these issues will be resolved via software updates.

Duplicated pictures when sync camera roll from iPhone to iTunes

Dear all,
2 issues:
1. When I sync my iPhone to iTunes and iPhoto opens (if there are pictures on the camera roll not yet imported), the non-imported pictures appear to be duplicated.
It is obviously quite annoying as I have to go through and delete the second image manually. Does anyone know how to sort this? I don't have HDR switched on. I have tried un-clicking sync iPhone over wifi, syncing and then clicking it back on again and syncing. Both these issues only started when I upgraded to my iPhone 6.
2. My iPhone refuses to sync over wifi. Occasionally the icon of the iPhone appears in iTunes, but that is very sporadic when it choses to and not. When it appears to be in iTunes I click sync and it says an error message of sync not possible and then the iPhone disappears from iTunes and I have to plug it in with cable.
I have spent in excess of 12 hours discussing this with various Senior technical support teams members at Apple who display enthusiasm about trying to help me until the point in which they go home for the day and then thy do not bother keeping to their ringback appointment so it all has to start again from scratch with a different person.
Suggestions made: Replace handset: Done. Try connecting your computer to router via cable: Hilarious, but done. Restore iPhone: Done. Technical data sent to apple: Done, but never got called back at agreed appointment to discuss results.
So I am throwing this issue out to the community.
From a very exasperated iPhone 6 user!

You should be importing these to your computer regulalry as you would from any digital camera.

Hello,
I have photos on my i-phone in albums (not on the camera role, and I don't seem to be able to transfer them to the camera roll) that I want to back up to my computer, but neither my computer or i-tunes can see these albums.
Any idea's as to how I can save these 500 odd photo's?
Thanks for any help that you are able to offer.

There are only two ways pictures get on an iPhone.
1) Pictures taken on the device that show up in the Camera Roll.
2) Pictures synced from the computer via iTunes to the device that show up in other folders.
There is no need to back these pictures up from the iPhone to the comptuer as they already exist on the computer.

If I sync my iPod to a new computer, will it erase the pictures on the camera roll?

I just got a new laptop and I wanted to sycn my iPod with it. My iPod is currently in sync with my desktop at home. I added all the information on my iPod to my new computer (i.e. music, podcasts, general pictures, contacts, etc.) but I don't know how to save the photos on the camera roll. If I sync with my new computer, will it delete the photos on the camera roll?

go to "COMPUTER" look for your ipod. open the folder. look for you pictures. highlight them. and drag them to your computer....

After iOS 5.1 update on iPhone 4, some of my pictures in the camera roll become pixelated after a crop edit?

I will elaborate. Lets say I save an image from a website. Then I go to the camera roll and edit crop it to make the image a tad bit smaller. Suddenly the images becomes pixelated and blocky. When I return to the image and tap the edit button, it becomes clear again and I can see the original picture. When I tap cancel, it goes back to beign pixelated/blocky. I tired restoring my phone to factory setting and losing all my data. That didn't work. As soon as I tested it, the same thing happened. I tried some weird method from www.iphoneincanada.ca an that didn't work either.
This is very annoying!

I have more info. I am using a program to look at the files on my iPhone. I did some testing and I came up with this. When a photo is edited ( in my case cropping) an image is created in the Metadata folder. The metadata folder is contained in a folder called PhotoData. For some reason, the cropped JPG is put within this metadata folder. The DCIM folder contains the "actual image" you saved from the internet or wherever. When a photo is edited in camer roll, a .XMP file is created for that image (Sometimes) and it's about 1kb. Coincidentally, the image that is pixelated DOES NOT have an .XMP file associated with it in the DCIM folder.
To conclude, it seems that the pictures that have a .XMP file associated with it in the DCIM folder does not come out as pixelated.
If there is a .XMP file then the photo in the Metadata folder become pixelated.

HOW do I delete the camera roll from my iPad2.

I updated to ios7.02
I tried this
Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Photos and Camera.     and you can't swipe and get a delete option.. how do I delete the camera roll?
I don't want to have to delete each of the 900 photos one at a time.

Syncing through iTunes won't help because that is not where synced photos are stored on iOS devices - they are in a folder that you name in iTunes (mine is iPad Photos).
The only way to clear the photos from the Camera Roll is to tap SELECT at the top of the screen, then tap all the photos so there is a blue checkmark on each of them and then tap the TRASHCAN at the bottom. You can select all the photos, but must do it individually.

Transferring pictures to the camera roll to restore it on the "places" app.

Hello,
I really love the "Places" app on the iphone whre all my pictures get automatically sorted to where the picture was taken. Unfortunately, I transferred some of my holiday pictures to my laptop and the pictures were removed from from the camera roll. Is there any possible way to transfer the picture that I transferred to my laptop back to my camera roll? This is just so I can get the picture back on the "Places" tab. The pictures were originally taken by my iphone. Or is there any other alternatives?
would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

One of the drawbacks to PhotoStream... You can delete all photos or none of them. I think the idea is you just leave them in there for the full 30 days and don't worry about trying to manage them. I've heard that they don't count towards your 5 GB of storage, but have not personally confirmed that. (I don't take photos with my iPad, and don't keep wifi on on my iPhone, so PhotoStream isn't much use to me.)

After I make a trailer or movie on my Iphone 4S and try to save it to the camera roll, I get a message that "an error occurred during export". The message appears after the piece has seeminly finished exporting. What am I doing wrong???

After I make a trailer or movie on my Iphone 4S using IMovie and try to save it to the camera roll, I get the message "An error occurred during export." The message appears after the piece has seemingly finished exporting. What am I doing wrong????

I appreciate you taking the time to copy and paste boilerplate responses to increase your points in this forum, but I've already read all those support articles in depth; but you have barely read my post at all. Please don't guess a fix. Only someone with the latest versions of iMovie, iOS, iPhone, Yosemite, and MacBook Pro is qualified to troubleshoot this, because anyone would immediately see that the following option no longer exists:
Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
Read my post before you reply: It clearly says in the title and within my post that I can neither export nor import through iTunes without receiving an error message. So your response neither solved my question nor helped me whatsoever.

TS1500 how do I transfer all my photos and videos including the camera roll from my Iphone 5 to my Windows 7 laptop?

hi there, I have an IPhone 5 32gig filled with pics and vids I cannot get off my phone and onto my laptop running Windows 7. Ifunbox hasnt recognized the camera roll. Went into a Apple store last night to talk to a genius and all he said was he hadn't touched a PC in twenty years and that no one there could answer my questions. Yeah, I was furious.

The camera roll should be seen just like any other digital camera when connected to your computer. Anything else had to come from your computer to begin with and can not be transferred without purchasing 3rd party software or individually saving them to the camera roll, emailing them, or otherwise finding another way to transfer them.
You do have iTunes installed on the computer, right? The drivers required are included in the iTunes install package.

How to stop the automatic zooming in on pictures in the camera roll?

When I go into my camera roll some of my pictures are zoomed in. I can zoom them out by using my fingers. Is there anything i can turn off to make it stop zooming in on my pictures?

Hi Trivedi
This solution works for us:
SICF---> Service --> Error Pages -> Logon Errors
Click the "Configuration" button half-way down the page.
Select "Define Service-Specific Settings" and then, under "Actions During Logon", set "Protocol" to "Do Not Switch".
Cheers
Marc
