Backing Up Pictures

My old phone is about to totally die and be unable to power up. Is there a way for me to back up my pix before this happens to when I get my new phone I can transfer the pix to it?

Hi LarellMarie,
I know how important it is to get your pictures backed up before it's too late. Let's make sure we get you all the needed details to get your details saved. Which device do you have? If it supports a memory card you can go to http://bit.ly/Xt6C7n and locate the device you need. If the device doesn't support an SD Card, you can check out the details on http://bit.ly/VSkZ6l to transfer pictures via USB.
Thank you,

Wanted to use Icloud to back up pictures and Itunes - it is running os 10.6.4. I have an original IPAD, nothing syncs without connecting. Do I need to purchase operating system updates? Wasn't sure what 10.6 Leopard is?

Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6, is not iCloud compatible. You need to upgrade to Lion, Mac OS X 10.7, via a download from the app store...$29 (US), provided you had at least 10.6.6. You can upgrade to 10.6.8 for free as part of the software updated function, then go to the app store and purchase the Lion download.
When you do that, before installing Lion, make a copy of the Lion Installer from the Applications folder where it downloads to some other location, such as your Documents folder, so you have a backup copy.
For Lion you must have at least an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7, or Xenon processor, 2 GB memory though 4 GB is better and 7 GB free space on the hard drive.
As part of 10.7.2 you end up with the iCloud connection.

Backing up pictures onto external drive

I need to restore my Mac and want to ensure I've backed up pictures correctly before doing so. Would simply dragging iPhoto pictures folder onto external drive safely back them up?

Yes it would.

I am using using IDVD to create slide shows. When viewed on my computer the pictures are clear and of high quality. When I burn the slide show to a disk and play it back, the pictures are blurry and of poor quality.

Thank you.

The Mac software - iPhoto, iMovie, and iDVD are not the best with the Ken Burns effect (zoom in/out effect), so you might want to minimize that effect; also, if your subjects are wearing stripes for instance, that will have an effect if you zoom. There is better software available for slideshows; however, I do not know of any that is free (and does a good job). I've used Photo to Movie for some time; it does a fine job even in HD, but you have to pay for it. I use iDVD extensively, but only to add a menu, theme, special effects, etc. and then to burn it.

Hello SlalomShop36, let's get to the bottom of this together! Was there any physical or water damage previously? Here's steps to run the phone in safe mode: http://vz.to/RLkPjp If issue persists backup your contacts and pics to run a master reset back to default settings. http://vz.to/Sm5TbH

Any trick to go back a picture on screen saver?

Is there any trick etc to go BACK a picture when displaying an iPhoto or mobile me pictures screen saver?
Our home computers display photo's from our lives and often one comes up that we want to go back to. Years ago on Windows this was easy and I am hoping there's a way to do it now with Snow Leopard.
TIA

TS3992 If I back up pictures from the camera roll on my iPad to iCloud and then delete the pictures off my iPad will the next back up to iCloud erase those picutres from iCloud?

If I back up pictures from the camera roll on my iPad to iCloud and then delete the pictures off my iPad will the next back up to iCloud erase those picutres from iCloud? or will all pictures remain in iCloud?

They will be erased. The backup only includes the data (and photos) on the iPad at the time of the backup. To keep your photos permanently, import them to your computer as explained here before deleting them: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, you can back up multiple devices but may need to purchase more iCloud space.

Trying to read and see my back uped pictures on iPhone 3GS

I did that, they all show up with that number code and as documents. Can only view them by clicking "space" but not open them in Photoshop etc. I would like to save them as jpg for print etc.

I updated my phone and i guess it didn't back up properly. It reset my phone back to factory settings. Anything I can do to get back my pictures, phone list, videos, apps,etc?

The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7).
copied from "about backups"http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you don't have, you'll have to start all over again. Apps can be downloaded again for free, but any data like game settings or similar will not be included, these are part of the backup.

How can I put a folder of backed up pictures from my iOS device into iPhoto so iPhoto automatically puts them in events (organized by date)?

I have an album of a bunch of pictures collected over the course of two years. They are from my old iPhone, and I didn't have a mac at the time. So on my pc, I just backed all my pictures from my old iPhone into a folder. Now I have a mac, and just like when you plug your iPhone in it allows you to upload them in organized events, how can I do that with folder of images? They all still have the date, so I don't know why it doesn't automatically sort it by date. Anyhow, thank you so much for your feedback!

When you import photos that is what happens - not by months but by the setting you have in your iPhoto preferences

How do I get back my pictures back after synced and was not backed up? Also were not taken from this phone.

I currently just synced my photos from my computer to my phone and didn't back up or import them.

What pictures did it delete, ones that were already on your phone? Syncing photos from the computer to the iPhone should not delete any photos at all, unless you had pictures synced to the phone that were synced from another computer, not the one you are currently syncing with. Either way, they are not contained in the iPhone backup anyway, they are assumed to be on the computer. Is this what occurred?

Backing up pictures from iPhone/iPad to icloud

Hello all,
I need help on a issue I am currently facing with my Apple devices.
I don't have nay kind of Notebook ( no mac, no windows etc...) and now I have to back up my pictures from my iPhone 5 as my storage space in the phone is pretty low now.
My questions are:
Is there a way to make a back up from my iPhone into iCloud, deleat the pictures in my iPhone and leave only in the iCloud? or
Is there a way to back up all my pics in my iPad mini ( 64gb ) and iCloud and deleat from iPhone and be able to access in my iCloud directly from my iPhone?
Bottom line is that I need to free up space in my iPhone ( i believe storing in iCloud) but being able to access from iPhone.
Thanks
Andre Reiter

oww, didnt know that.
so a quick one, why my icloud space is taken if it only shares between devices and not storage the files?
tks

** How do I get my ringtones back and pictures?

It took me 3 hours to update my ipnone4. Then I lost all my pictures, apps, and music. I was able to reinstall my apps and didn't have to pay for them. I was also able to get my music put back on, however the ringtones I paid for I couldn't. The pictures I suppose were my fault for not saving them before I did the update. But I've only had this phone for 3 months and I'm still trying to understand some of the quarks that it has.
Please help me. How do I get my ringtones back? And are my pictures lost for good?

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Yes the wipe would delete all personal data settings as a security feature designed in the device.
Unless you have used the Blackberry desktop software to get a full backup of the device prior to the wipe the data is gone. If you do have the backup file you can restore the data via the desktop manager.
Thanks,
