Transfer photos from iPhone 4 to iPad without going through iTunes

Can I transfer photos from my iPhone to iPad without needing to use iTunes to sync?

You have a Mac, so essentially iPhoto (or Aperture, depending on what you have) stores and organizes photos. I find this very useful, because although 99.9% of my photos are from a real camera, I do occasionally take photos with my iPhone, possibly more now that I have an iPhone 4.
iTunes, as annoying as it can be at times, let's you organize what photos are moved to the iPad and iPhone. It really is easy, even for a rank beginner.
Apple also keeps a closed system for these products. Again, annoying at times, but mostly it works. You should read stories about the Android system where apps work or don't work depending on seemingly random movements of the planets. There might be something out there if you look hard, but you'll be frustrated with what happens.
I'm very happy how I control photos with Aperture, iPhone, iPad and iTunes in combination. Switch out Aperture and iPhoto, and you'll be fine too.
But, if there's a particular reason why you don't like the combination, drop a note here, and we'll try to help out.

  • Transfer photos from iPhone to mac without iPhoto / image capture and preview doesn't see device

    Hello. I'd like to transfer photos from my iPhone to my Mac. I read (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083) that iPhoto is the standard application for that; I'd like to do without. I read that image capture (http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/8954/copy-photos-off-iphone-without-iph oto) or even Preview (http://osxdaily.com/2010/07/10/transfer-photos-from-iphone-to-computer/)  could help. Neither of them see my iPhone although cable connected and iTunes does. So my question is two: If Preview and Image Capture are ineed supposed to, why don't they? And is there any other way?
    Thanks

    I dont like iphoto so the easiest way to do it is using image capture, just plug in your iphone launch image capture from your applications folder and import all images or just selected images into any folder you want.
    Moreover,you can follow this page about how to transfer photo/pictures from iPhone to Mac, which give an easy guide to figure out this problem.
    Have a good luck!

    The language of the two stores (iTunes and the App Store) can't be changed - they will be in the language of the country where your account is based (if they aren't correct then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in).

  • Is there a way to download a file into an ipad without going through itunes?

    I am trying to do it in a similar way to that of an Android device. I would like to have someone with an Apple device scan a QR code which pulls a zip file on to their device and then from there (without using iTunes) extract and load the file into an app already installed on the device.
    Is this possible? What is the fastest, easiest, most effecient way to do this?

  • What's the easiest way to transfer photos from PC to ipad?  I've tried using itunes, but adding more photos erases photos already loaded.  Help!

    How to transfer photos from PC to ipad without erasing photos already loaded.  The only option I find in itunes is to synch, which only transfers into one album on the ipad.  I'm sure I'm just missing an easy step.  Transferring photos from PC to android is a snap, can't be this hard with ipad.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    You don't really sync photos from the devices to the Mac, you import them to an app; iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture. During that process you are given an option to erase the photos from the device. Is this not the manner that you used?

  • Transfer photos from iMac to iPad

    Hi Guys - can someone tell me an easier way to transfer photos from iMac to iPad.
    Perhaps I've misunderstood, but this is the process I currently go through
    create folder called "iPad photos" on desktop
    create event called "iPad transfer" on iphoto
    copy and paste items from iPhoto to desktop folder
    when complete, drag photos from desktop to iphoto
    then move the resultant "untitled event" to merge with "iPad transfer"
    sync iPad with ONLY "iPad transfer"
    This works. However, I've then got exactly TWICE the number of digital photos in iPhoto !
    I have the originals, and then the duplicates imported BACK into the iPad transfer folder - so obviously I'm using up valuable memory.
    Can someone suggest a simpler more efficient way ?
    Many thanks.

    I'm guessing that you are going through all of those steps because you have photos in a number of different events that you want to copy to the iPad and that those events also include photos that you don't want to go to the iPad?
    Two options to consider:
    1) Create an Event for photos that you want to move to the iPad and move all of the photos from where they currently are into that Event. This has the advantage of grouping all of the photos into one Event but the disadvantage that they are no longer in the Event where you may have wanted them for other reasons.
    2) What I do. Use the iPhoto "Album" feature. A photo inside iPhoto can be in one Event and in one or more Albums without occupying any more space. Create an Album (iPhoto File menu New Album) and name it something like "iPad Photos". If you desire you can create additional Albums and drag them onto the main Album to create sub-albums one level deep for better organization. Then simply drag photos from Events to the desired Album and they will be in both places. Then when you sync, select the Album (e.g. "iPad Photos") to sync.
