Why can I not put a picture from camera roll into an album?

Why can I not put a picture from my camera roll into an album now? When I try these are greyed out. I created these albums on my ipad too but ever since I updated to IOS 7 this can't be done, it was so easy before.

I can now answer my own question as I've worked it out. For those who are interested click on Shared Streams then on album you require photo to be in then click on the empty box with a cross in the centre and choose photo you wish to add.

  • How can I put selected pictures from camera roll into a seperate album removing them completly from camera roll??

    Im gunna be straight up honest here.. I have some rude pictures of my girlfriend on my iphone which I would like to keep for my own personal viewing but obviously dont want family and friends seeing when they are flicking threw my camera album which often happens. I had intended to make a private album put them all in there and put a passcode on the album. With all of apples features I would of thought this would be a standard thing you could do, however when I made the private album the pictures were still in my camera roll and if I try to delete them I am told the pictures will be removed completly from my phone.. This is stupid. What is the point in being able to make albums if the pictures are going to still all be in the camera roll!? Does anybody know of a way I can move pictures from camera roll to a private album?? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Photos placed in a user created album or in an existing album are not copied/duplicated. The photos placed in an album include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Camera Roll. Having an album for select photos is for viewing the select photos only without having to see all photos in the Camera Roll.
    The same applies to albums transferred from your computer. All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the Photo Library. Photos on the albums below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos appear as they are duplicated when they are not. This way you can view the photos in an album only by selecting the album, or all photos on the Photo Library or Camera Roll by selecting it.

  • How to move picture from camera roll to existing album

    would like to organise photo albums but am struggling to move from camera roll to existing album without using laptop

    Choose Select at the upper right, select some photos, choose "Add To" at the upper left, and then select the album you wish to move the photos to.
    Note that you can only move photos to albums that you created on the iPad. Also note that the photo will remain in the Camera Roll, only a pointer to the photo is moved to the album.

  • Add picture from camera roll to existing album?

    I have created albums and want to add more pictures from camera roll.  How to do that?

    If you want to add them to albums that you've created directly on the iPad then go into the album that you want to add the photos to, tap the icon at the top right of the screen that looks like a box with an arrow coming out of it, and you should then get an option next to that icon to 'Add Photos'.
    If you want to add photos to albums that you synced from your computer then you'll need to copy the photos to your computer, add them to the folders that the albums came from, and then re-sync

  • Is there away to save the pictures on Camera Roll into an Album?

    How do I move the Pictures from Camera Roll to a designated album?

    Import the photos with your computer as with any other digital camera. Organize the photos into albums or folders on your computer as with other photos on your computer followed by transferring the albums or folders to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

  • Why can I not save a picture from a text message on iOS 7?

    When I receive a text message that had a picture I don't have the option to save the picture to my iPhone. Am I missing something?

    If you tap the picture, you should see a box on the bottom left with an arrow pointing up.  The first option at the bottom of the next sheet should be "Save Image"

  • Why can't i send my pictures from the printer to the computer

    I put my memory stick from my camera into the slot on my HP officejet 6500A plus, and it does not give me an option to send it to my computer for my files.  It only gives me View and Print,  Create and Reprint... why can't I send the pictures from that memory stick to my computer from the printer?  Thanks

  • Why can I not print a PDF from an email?

    Why can I not print a PDF from an email any longer?

    Can you explain in better detail?
    Is it when you open the file attachment and attempt to Print?
    Is it right-mouse clicking and attempting to Print?
    Is it when you print the email itself and expect the attachment to Print?

  • Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

    Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
    This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
    Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

    Sorry ?
    An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
    Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
    If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
    I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

  • Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8,  for the simple reason it was
    created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
    OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
    current version for compatibility.

  • Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library

    Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library. There are many books that I want to delete and replace with current books, but cannot remove the old books.  Thanks  Guy

    Hey cjt101,
    Thanks for the question. Was this song purchased from the iTunes Store? If so, it may be that your device is configured to show all of your purchased music that has not yet been downloaded. The following resource may resolve your issue:
    iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
    View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />
