Your photos are actually all in the Camera Roll. The album you create only contain pointers to these pictures. Albums are like music playlists; when you delete a song from the playlist it doesn't delete the song from your music library. But when you delete a song from your music library it will also be deleted from any playlists that it may have been in as well.

I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?

Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.

iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->

It's only difficult if you get all emotional over tiny things and don't stop to look for answers first. I find Macs very simple to use.

My FaceTime app on my new phone disappeared.
How do I get it back.

You are asking a question of a post that was written almost 3 years ago. At that time, there was no FaceTime app for iOS devices.
Try restoring the device to Factory Settings to see if the app shows up (do not restore using a backup):
Restore to Factory Settings

How do I delete photos from camera roll but keep same photo in album

how do I delete photos from camera roll but keep same photo in album

You can't. The albums that you created on the iPad do not actually contain copies of the photos, but merely pointers to those photos. If you remove the photos from the camera roll, they will be removed from the iPad. Albums on the iPad are simply for your own organization on the device. Those albums cannot be imported to your computer either, since the photos do not exist in the albums.

How do I copy photos from Camera Roll to personal photo album? iPhone 4 and pc

I have an iPhone 4 and use pc....
I want to copy a few pics from Camera Roll to my personal album. I'd like to copy them and then remove them from Camera roll. Then, I'd like to be able to organize folders in my personal album so I don't have to look through all 500 pics to find what I'm looking for. The pictures on my pc are in folders but they all get put together in one folder on the phone. I hope this makes sense. Thank you in advance. Ü

This forum is broken into lots of different categories for all the various applications and devices that Apple makes.
You've posted a Question about the iPhone and Windows.
But this is the iPhoto forum - and iPhoto is an app that runs on neither the iPhone nor Windows.
So, click on the link above and ask your question there. That's where it needs to be asked so you can get help.

On 8.1, how do I delete photos from camera roll but not from photo stream?

I recently updated to iOS 8.1 on my 5S and was happy to get camera roll back, but unlike in the past, when I delete a picture from camera roll, it also deletes it from photo stream. This makes no sense; I want to delete it from my phone while keeping it in photo stream - is there something I'm not doing? Is it a problem with 8.1? Any help would be appreciated...thanks.

Error message when opening photo from Camera Roll

I just updated to iOS 4.3
Now, when I open a photo from camera roll it says "El formato de esta pelicula es incompatible", which means something like "The format of this movie is not compatible" (it doesn't matter if I try to open a photo or a movie).
So I tap the "OK" button below the message and then I can see the photo.
Any idea of what this means?
Thank you!

Why are photos I deleted from Camera Roll re-appearing in CR when I put them into Albums from Photo Stream?

Last night I deleted some photos from my Camera Roll (on iPhone 3GS) using cable connection to my PC. I then went to Photo Stream (the photos were, correctly, still in there) and put some of them in Albums in the Photos app. Some, but not all, have now re-appeared in Camera Roll - and, very unhelpfully, not in the order they were taken. I don't want these photos in Camera Roll but can vaguely accept and understand if the app HAS to copy the Photo Stream photos to Camera Roll if you put them in Albums and they are not in Camera Roll already but then why are there 2 photos (in different Albums) that this is not happening for?
Any ideas/advice?

Thanks for your comments.
I connected the iPhone to my PC with the USB sync cable (I usually sync by Wifi) and opened the iPhone as a Windows window. Went to the relevant DCIM folder for the Camera Roll and Deleted them there. I checked on the iPhone before and after sycning that they had been deleted from Camera Roll - and they had. I only have one Camera Roll album (no chance of another album being synced).
They remained deleted from my Camera Roll until I put the copies of the photos held in the Photo Stream album (which I purposely did not delete them from) into an album. They then appeared in my Camera Roll again. Now, if I delete them from Camera Roll again (either direct from iPhone Photo app or via USB cable) they still reappear in my Camera Roll if I put them in an album from Photo Stream. I can see it happen before my eyes as each one appears after I have selected the photos from Photo Stream, used Share to put them in an album and then go to Camera Roll - they pop up one at a time.
It would make sense to some extent except that there are two photos (in two separate albums to the ones that are reappearing) that have definitely been deleted from the Camera Roll, have been put in their respective albums from Photo Stream but are not reappearing in Camera Roll. And, as far as I know, I did exactly the same things with them. I don't want to have the photos back in my Camera Roll but I cannot find any explanation as to why one set is appearing back in Camera Roll and these two are not.

I have a photo in an album and in camera roll. I am trying to delete the photo from the camera rol and the only option that i get is : delete everywhere? Noooooo i just want to delete it from camera roll!!!!!

The way that I understand that it works, is that the photos are not copied into the new albums, instead it just points to the photos - the number of photos on the iPad in Settings > General > About doesn't increase when you create new album so I assume from that that it isn't copying the photo, just pointing to it. So if you delete the photo from the camera roll you will therefore also be deleting all the pointers to it

How to delete photos from camera roll only, let the rest remain in albums? Is there any no-PC or no iTunes solution for this?

If these are albums, you created on your phone, using pics in your camera roll, you delete the pics from your camera roll & they will be deleted from the albums as well. The albums don't actually contain any photos, only pointers to the actual photos, which are in your camera roll.
So, the answer to your question is no.

Why are photos deleting from Photo Stream when I delete them from Camera Roll?

Since the 8.1 update, anytime I delete a photo from my camera roll it also automatically deletes from my photo stream. Before it would stay in photo stream until I deleted it from there (I do that after importing it to Mac). Now I have to keep it in my camera roll or lose it, this defeats the purpose of having the photo stream for me. I've seen others with this issue but no fixes. Anyone?

They just made this feature useless with this issue. Why would I need those 2 albums if everytime I delete a pic from Camera Roll, it gets deleted on the other one.

I recently bought a new PC and when I transferred my photos a number of them became distorted- the top half was ok but the bottom half were color shifted. Also a number of them the top and bottom don't line up. How can I fix this?

Hi, I see I haven't had any responses but these problems haven't been fixed.
I still haven't been able to transfer purchases from my phone to my comp so consequently have stopped purchasing on my phone.
I bought a couple of albums recently via itunes on my comp, and tried to tranfer them to my phone via a playlist, but the sync often crashes. One album transferred except for one song, and the other hasn't at all. What happens is that when I autofill from a playlist it often hangs for ages on the first song and then I have to quit the application altogether as nothing happens for ages. Basically, the whole Itunes software freezes.
After this I find it hasn't transferred any songs, but they do appear greyed out on my phone, which means it has transferred some basic data such as the titles, but not the song itself. When I try to repeat the process to complete the transfer Itunes tells me that it can't transfer because the songs are already on the phone, but they are not!! I can't click or remove on the greyed out items, so now I have a couple of almost full albums on my computer that I can't tranfer or install on my phone, and a whole bunch of greyed out songs on my phone that I can't play or remove!
The rest of the problems as above still stand. I downloaded the latest itunes OS updates but nothing's changed. I haven't done the very latest iphone update yet though because it says you need to make sure your stuff is backed up, and I don't want to lose the purchases I made on the phone that I can't transfer to my comp. I'm planning on uninstalling itunes completely and reinstalling but I have little faith that this will fix the issue.
Can someone please help at all?? I'm so sick of this!

My pc crashed and I lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. Now i have a new pc and when i connect to itunes using my password all my music and photos are not available. they appear to be lost.

my pc crashed and i lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. now i have a new pc and when i log into itunes all my music and photos are not available. I guess i dont understand the pupose of itunes and its worth. I thought it backed up all my photos and music, but apparently not. So what do I use so that when i lose data on my pc i can retrieve it again at a later date or after a crash?/

Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.

Why is it on the photo app is that when you add your photos to new albums and when you are deleting from camera roll it will delete photos from everywhere so therefore once your photos are in the albums you have chosen you cannot delete f
