Access to Iphone Photos on a PC

I have sync'ed my Iphone with my PC (running XP). All is well except for photos where the Apple software creates a (1.7 meg or so) photo database file with no extension and fifty empty file folders (F00 to F50).
There are about 45 pictures on the phone which I would love to get access to. Can anyone shed light on how to do something as simple as actually using the photos this phone takes?

When you connect the iPhone to an XP PC, it should automatically launch the Scanner and Camera wizard. It should also create an icon under the Scanners and Cameras section of My Computer. You can double click on that and all the pictures you took with the iPhone are their. You can copy them off there like if it was a regular folder.

  • I accidently denied google drive to access my iphone photos and videos. Can someone help ?

    Can someone teach me how to make Google Drive  access my video and photos? b/c I have accidently denied its access earlier.

    Try going to Settings>Privacy>Photos and you'll see a list of apps that requested the ability to use your pictures. Hope this helps

  • I just got a new iphone 5 yesterday. I can't get any of the apps to request access to my photos.

    I bought a new iphone 5c yesterday and am installing all of my apps on to it, and also updated to iOs 7.1.2.  None of the apps I have installed (such as instagram, facebook, twitter or messenger) have requested access to my photos so I can't use my photos within the apps. How do I change this? I have already gone to my settings, general, privacy, photos  and there are no requests from apps to allow this feature. I have tried uninstalling the apps and reinstalling them thinking maybe if I did that the request would pop up but that didn't work. The only thing instagram has requested is access to my microphone. Can someone help please? I'm getting beyond frustrated, and I can not get to an apple store to have someone take a look.

    All of your pictures adn contact should be on your computer. Nothing should only be on your iphone.  The iphone is not a storage device.  it simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.
    You should be syncing contacts to your computer regularly and importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly.
    Have you failed to do this?

  • I bought a new iPhone and only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostram on icloud. I thought icloud was the storage for all my old photos. How do I access the old photos on icloud?

    I bought a new iPhone 5. Only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostream on iCloud. I thought iClud was the storage for all the old photos. How do I access the older photos than 30 days on iCloud?

    Where, exactly, did you read anything from Apple that suggested that iCloud Photostream was permanent storage?

  • How to access iPhone "Photo Library" to get image file properties?

    I want to access iPhone "Photo Library" to get image file properties(name, list etc..) without dialog.
    Is there any suitable method/class to this?

    Allan,
    Thank you for your reply!
    My purpose is access to "Photo Library" by iPhone API.
    Because, I know several iPhone application which has own image list and the list is synced to "Photo Library".
    If I take photo by iPhone native camera, the taken photo is listed up on the image list so I guess those applications can access to "Photo Library" directly.
    Or.. any other solution..?

  • IPhone: photo jpg access

    I'd just like someone to confirm for me that iPhone apps built using the SDK cannot have read access to the jpgs stored at /var/root/Media/DCIM/100APPLE (or in any other way access the original photo files created by the camera)
    What happens if you attempt to read files at that path using NSFileManager?
    If we can read files at that path then great.
    If we don't have read access to those file then for photo upload we need to do the following:
    - use the image picker to get the UIImage of the selected image,
    - write to a new JPEG file using UIImageJPEGRepresentation
    - upload that new image file.
    Unfortunately, don't we lose the EXIF info that was in the original JPEG file?
    Is there any way to retain that info?
    Thanks!

    Are you getting a 3G signal? What cell provider are you using?

  • I can't allow any of my apps on iPhone 4S access to my photos

    When trying to use photo apps e.g facebook, twitter, whatsapp, instagram. i am unable to upload photos unless i go straight from the camera.
    It says on each app that i must go to privacy > photos and allow the app access to my photos but there is not option to (see uploaded photo)
    Please help.

    Yes. Since you're restoring as a new device, it doesn't really matter what computer you use. Just make sure you sign into iTunes using YOUR Apple ID first.
    You should be aware, by design, iPhone syncs or manually manages iTunes content with ONE computer at a time. Every time you switch computers, ALL iTunes content will first be erased from your phone, to be replaced with the content from the new computer.

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

  • IPhone photos app crashing consistently with large iCloud photo library beta - how can I completely remove?

    Hi - I turned on the iCloud photo library beta on my phone weeks ago.  Worked fine with no issues.  Then the Yosemite OS X beta 10.10.3 was released with the new Photos app.  Once i loaded that new app, it converted my Aperture library and began to upload around 75,000 photos.
    My iPhone almost immediately became sluggish (I assumed because it was downloading the pictures) and then eventually started crashing every time I go into the app (after a few seconds).  I assumed it was because it showed 75,000 images in my Cameral Roll/Moments so I turned of the iCloud photo library beta.  It prompted to be certain I was ok with deleting the images, which I said OK to.  But it still shows 75,000 images in the camera roll and anything I tried to do with any photo has become completely unusable (generally just crashing each time).
    Did I miss a step in the process?
    Is this just me?
    I'm trying to backup my iPhone but it keeps erroring out with the message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone "name" because the iPhone disconnected".  Otherwise I would just recreate .  Please help

    It can free up some storage but it doesn't work like Dropbox. See the following quotes from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    I personally don't use iCloud Photo Library as it is still beta. Additionally, I have a Mac computer and there is not yet a Mac Photos app that is compatible.
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    To turn on Optimize [device] Storage on your device, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select Optimize [device] Storage. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    How does iCloud delete photos and videos from iCloud Photo Library?
    Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app. If you need to recover these photos during that time, contact Apple Support.

  • IOS 8 iPad showing wrong iPhone photo stream

    Just upgraded to iOS8 on my iPad, have not yet on iPhone. I have three questions:
    1) My correct apple ID email shows in settings under iCloud, however my Photos app is showing my husband's Photo Stream from his iPhone, which has a different Apple ID than mine. It is not showing my iPhone's Photo Stream. How can this be and how do I correct it? We have verified that the iCloud Apple ID settings are correct on all devices.
    2) I am afraid to upgrade my iPhone to iOS8 because I do not want to completely lose my Photo Stream, since my iPad switched to accessing the wrong Photo Stream. Will that happen as well?
    3) I would like to use iCloud Photos Library (Beta) but when I hit the switch I get this message: "Photos synced from iTunes will be removed. Syncing photos via iTunes is not supported." What photos is it referring to? How do I avoid losing those?

    If you don't see the AirPlay icon in Control Center:
    1. Turn off router, Apple TV and iPad
    2. Turn on router and then wait 30 seconds for it to complete start-up process
    3. Turn on Apple TV and then wait 30 seconds for it to complete start-up process
    4. Turn on iPad and test AirPlay

  • IPhoto doesn't accept my iPhone photos.

    I have an iPhone 4s and an iMac whith the new iPhoto, when I sicronized it it tells me that it can not be read by iPhoto becasue of its format, what can I do?

    Close itunes and try.
    Sometimes iTunes tried to access the iPhone at the same time and that it what causes issues.
    There is a great app built into OSX that is rarely used but great to get photos off cameras or iPhones.
    Look for Image Capture in your apps folder.
    This can grab the photos and video off easily and much faster then iPhoto.
    You could also use a wifi transfer app, wifi photo transfer is a great app that I use all the time.
    Look at which photo or video is giving you the problem, and you could download just that one via Wifi Photo Transfer, and then delete it off the iPhone.
    Then try with iPhoto again.

  • Apps doesn't have access to my photo library

    All Apps says that they don't have access to my photos and when I open privacy/photos/ it only shows tell policy and says that no apps have requested an access, What to do??

    You'll have to restore your phone as a new device to remove a forgotten Restrictions passcode. You could also restore from a backup made PRIOR to enabling Restrictions, that is if you have a backup made prior to enabling restrictions. The Restrictions passcode is included in the iPhone backup.

  • IPhoto isn't importing my iPhone photos?

  • Iphone photo transfer choas: where is the original image ?

    folder structure is confusing:
    iphoto library
    modified
    2007
    Roll 312
    if modified, where is the ******* original ?

    Are you transferring photos from iPhoto to your iPhone?
    The folder structure on the iPhone should be as follows:
    Camera Roll - stores photos taken by the iPhone only.
    Photo Library - access to all photos transferred to your iPhone from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process. Photos take by the iPhone are available in the Camera Roll folder only.
    Below Photo Library are select iPhoto albums (or select folders containing photos) transferred from your computer to your iPhone.
    If you transferred one iPhoto album or separate folder named 2007 containing photos to your iPhone which includes 100 photos - it should be available on the iPhone as follows:
    Photo Library (100)
    2007 (100)
    If you transferred 3 iPhoto albums or separate folders named 2005, 2006 and 2007 containing a total photo count of 100, it should be as follows:
    Photo Library (100)
    2005 (35)
    2006 (35)
    2007 (30)
    You can view the 30 photos in the 2007 album or folder only by selecting it or view all 100 photos in all albums or folders by selecting Photo Library.
    I'm not sure where the modified folder is coming from but unless you have an iPhoto album or pictures folder name modified which was selected for transfer from your computer to the iPhone, something is wrong but the original photos should be available on your computer.

  • Add To iPhoto in Mail fails for iPhone photos sent in multiple emails

    Someone takes six photos with an iPhone and emails them to you.
    You get 6 emails. Each one has a photo.jpg image attached.
    You click the SAVE pop-down menu in the Mail message and choose Save To iPhoto. The photo is imported into iPhoto. You delete that email and do the same thing with the second email with the second photo...
    BUT, somewhere the Mail-iPhoto smartness turns dumb, as the rest of the photos will not show up in iPhoto. (This may have something to do with the fact that the iPhone sends each photo with the attachment name of photo.jpg and somehow Mail or iPhoto think that photo has already been added to iPhoto).
    I was having this problem with photos emailed to me by iPhone users and tested it myself.
    Sure enough, after the first photo.jpg attachment is imported all subsequent Add To iPhoto operations of iPhone sent images fail... even if the photos have been sent from separate iPhones from separate email addresses.
    All the attachments are kept by Mail in uniquely numbered folders in the attachments folder of my receiving email account in Library/Mail but since each attachments is named photo.jpg that seems to throw off iPhoto OR Mail (because even the quick progress update of "Adding photo to iPhoto" does not show up on these attempts).
    I checked if quitting and restarting Mail fixed allowed the second photo to be added to iPhoto but it did not. Quitting iPhoto after EACH import/Add To iPhoto operation allowed each photo to be added into iPhoto.
    This may have to do with the iPhoto bugs handling large libraries (I have 19000 images in it) like the spinning wheel of Names window after imports, etc.
    Just sharing if others have the same experience sending 3 iPhone photos by email to themselves and seeing if all can be added to iPhoto from Mail. Thanks.
    Imran

    Yes it is a bug
    Report to apple. iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    You can work around BR saving to the desktop and importing or opening in quick view, expanding to full screen and saving to iPhoto
