I need help with saving all of the photos and videos on my iPhone.
When I access the screen that has Photos, Shared, and Albums and I click on Photos, there are more photos there than the phone is counting that
I have on my iPhone. How do I save all those photos or put them onto my computer? I have saved the photos it will let me but I cannot access the photos from more than 2 years ago. Also my phone says I have 43 videos but only 10 save.
Also, when I upgrade and switch to a newer iPhone, will I see all those photos from the whole history of my phone, will I see all 43 videos, and all my iMessages and SMSs?
Thank you.
Hi Sharon,
The best thing for you to do is 2 things.
When you purchase a new device(whether it be a iPhone, iPod or iPad)
1) Perform a full backup of your old device via iTunes. This will save contacts, calendars, photos, text messages, emails, apps in folders how you left them, music, videos, podcasts etc. Note it won't import your photos unless you tell it to.
1.1) When you get your new device it will ask whether to set up as a new device or from a backup, select from backup and your new phone will look and be exactly the same as your old one, same settings etc.
2)[optional] I personally like to backup my photos to iPhoto on my mac once a month. When it reaches the end of the library it asks whether to delete originals or not. If you hit no it doesn't change the photos on your device and you have a copy in your iTunes library. This is handy if you want to use photos from your phone on your mac.

just bought the iphone 5 and before syncing to my mac i took some photos then finally decided to sync it but it deleted ALL of the photos and videos and replaced them with the old pics i had on my iphone4.. i need those pics please help
Nope.
Did you fail to import them before restoring from backup? If so, then they are gone.
You should import all photos taken with the iphone to your comuter regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore. -
I have an Apple I Phone 4S which is great but, can someone help me how to get the photos and videos to my PC which runs on MS XP. I would like to be able to edit and copy photos and videos to a DVD.
Connect your iPhone to your computer. Tp your pc should recognize your iPhone as a camera. Use what ever application you have on the pc to transfer files from a camera to your computer.

I am getting very angry with this, i have been trying for hours. There is more information than is humanly needed to upload to icloud, which a 5 year old can do, but nothing to help download it all
Camera roll photos and videos are included in your backup. If you still have a backup made while these were still on your phone, restoring to the backup should recover them.
Photo stream won't help. Photo stream photos are only kept in photo stream for 30 days, even though they remain on your devices until you delete them. Photos added 4 months ago would no longer be there to download. Also, photo stream only syncs photos, not videos. -
How can I synchronize the photos and videos on my iphone with my mac mini or macbook pro?
Hello,
I took some pictures and videos with my iphone 4s. Now I want to synchronize them with my mac mini and my macbook pro.
But when I try to sync it via iTunes I can only sync from mac to iphone but not from iphone to mac.
If I import them via iphoto all videos are shown as pics and I cannot play them.
Can anyone help me?
Best regards,

I have saved all of the photos on my Iphone 5 to my PC. Now I want to delete them from my phone only to free up space and take more pictures and video. How do I do this?
You sould have been given the option to delete them after importing when you imported them, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
To do this on your phone, open the album you want to delete photos from (so you are viewing the thumbnails), tap Select, tap the photos, then tap the trash icon. (There is no "select all" option.) -
My parent's IPad is SUPER outdated and I'm trying to buy an app for my brother for Christmas. However, I can't buy the app because it says we need to update the software. The thing is, the computer that was connected to the IPAD, we no longer have. So is there any way I can update it on my mac without erasing all the photos and videos?

How do I select and email a whole lot of photos on my iPad from my iPad emails? It seems I have to go into Email and then insert one photo at a time? Isn't there a way to select all in the photos and then email the batch.?
Actually, you can email up to 5 at a time from the Photos app. Select any more and the email share option will not appear.
If you explain why you need to email large numbers of photos, we might be able to offer an alternative. -
I want to watch rented movies downloaded on my mini 3 on my MacBook 7.1, but when I connect the two devices, the movies don't transfer. What steps do I need to take. I can see all the photos and videos from the mini 3 but not the rented movies.
It appears you have a iPad Mini and a MacBook. Assuming that, this
About renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
says
If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.
This is the Mac Mini desktop forum -

Hi shaza31,
If your iPhone was set to save photos to Photo Stream, you may be able to access them by turning on Photo Stream on your other devices. The following article may be helpful:

CAn you please tell me how I can get all the photos and video from my iPad and iPhone that aren't in photo stream so I can get them from my iCloud onto my PC please.
If you don't physically have the phone then there is no way for you to get the photos or videos.
Have you been backing up your phone? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 if so, you can restore that backup to your new phone and get all your contents back.
did you fail to import pics to your computer as you would a digital camera? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 -

I wonder if another provider would really be much different? Read some of the other carrier forums - seems to be the same story everywhere.
I'm not disagreeing with you - I've found that I am usually more informed about Verizon policies and procedures than some of the reps in our local store. -
I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this. There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.
Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
File > New > Smart Album:
Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
Set the scope of the search to "Library"
If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them. Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active. -
