Camera roll gone
SSince updating to iOS 8 my camera roll is gone. It gad 1500+ images. It's now showing me the most recent 350 photos. I don't use albums/dates/times. How can I get this back, or how do I get all images in one folder without clicking on photos and then moments.
Photos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Everything is not "linked" to your PC in this regard. Importing photos from the Camera Roll is done manually as when importing photos from any other digital camera.
Photos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process as well as 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app. This data should be included with your iPhone's backup unless there is a problem with the backup.
When you connected your new iPhone to iTunes on your computer the first time, were you prompted to transfer the backup for your previous iPhone to your new iPhone? If so, was the backup for your previous iPhone transferred to your replacement iPhone?

Hello,
I just updated my phone to (ios 6.1) and now my camera roll is completely missing. There seems to be a lot of "other" storage showing, so I am thinking that my photos might still be there, but is there any way to restore the camera roll? A select number of my photos were restored to the photo stream, but the camera roll is completely gone. Please help.You can try restoring from backup.
You did import all camera roll pics to your computer before updating? -
Camera roll gone in iOS8. Why do i have two sets of photo in my iPhone?
I have just got iOS8 on my iPhone 5s. I released "Camera Roll" its gone and the only place to find photo taken from my phone will either from "Events" or "Collections". It's near imposable to find photo from "Events" as it does not put my photo in the right order according to timeline.
The problem with "Collections" its just not user friendly. Also, all my photo have two sets in "Collections". Is there any way that I can delete one set of my photo from "Collections"? What do I need to do on my iTunes, iPhoto and my iPhone? This will be must appreciated.
Finally I really want to have "Camera Roll" back. Its really useless to have "Collections" as it sort out my photo via time. That makes a lot of space between photo when its rang by date. its too small to see when its range by year. So, it is really useless things to have. I prefer to have "Camera Roll" back.Mrben1969 wrote:

You should have three different folders named "Library". They are
<~/Library>, or the Library folder in your Home folder (aka, Library folder from user domain)
</Library>, or the Library folder at the root level of your startup disk (aka, Library folder from local domain)
</System/Library>, or the Library folder in the System folder (aka, Library folder from system domain)
And under no circumstances should you even dream of deleting any one of them.
Should this dream ever occur, you need to get cured by reading a basic book about Macs, eg, David Pogue's "Missing Manual…". -
Why is the IOS 8 camera roll gone?
Why did the camera roll album go away after downloading IOS 8. Now I have to go through tthe dates of every photo I took. Also some of my photos I took this year went into (started) a brand new date/album in 1970 I wasn't alive back then!
This is not correct. Camera Roll arranged things by the order in which you saved / took the photos. The "Collections" stores them by metadata within the photo itself, which for many users is not useful. Same with Recently Added... which doesn't store them in the order in which you added them, but again, by internal datestamps within the photo.
I am an artist, and make drawings based on photos I find and save. Some of those photos might have been taken years ago, so now on iOS8 a photo I saved mere seconds ago, instead of being right where I expect to see it within Camera Roll, is now mired somewhere within Collections or Moments with no easy way to find it.
Similarly, I used to save a photo, then draw it and save a photo of my drawing, and they'd be side-by-side within Camera Roll, convenient for posting to social media sites. Now, the original photo, since there is no Camera Roll, cannot be posted or even seen by the most popular Apps such as Instagram.
In short, Apple decided to arrange photos according to internal computere-produced data within the photo itself, within "Collections" instead of "Albums", and further confused things with PhotoStream and iPhoto and iCloud and iCloud Drive and Family Sharing, to the point where many users simply do not know what to do.
It's time Apple responded. -
Camera roll gone after iOS upgrade
I see that with the iOS upgrade "Camera Roll" is no longer available in Photos. It appears to have been replaced with "Recently Added". Well I had quite a few photos in "Camera Roll" and they are now missing. "Recently Added" is taken literally - it no longer has older photos in it. Is there a place where my photos can be retrieved?
Wow, that isn't very obvious. I went into the Photos category at the bottom of the screen to finally see 'Collections'. These photos are sure hidden deep. Not the most convenient but at least they are still there. Thank you!

All photos from the Camera roll gone after iOS 5 update! Any way to get them back?
Please tell me a way to get my pictures back asap!
Photos are meant to be uploaded to your computer for archival and storage. Certainly before doing something as major as a software update, you've done this, correct? In this case, your photos should be residing safely on your computer and you can just synch them back.

Even if I create another new album by transferring all photos from collections to this new create album... resulting duplicate photo from my own folder that has already created before this updates. Pls fix this and is annoyed and frustrating especially those photos I have already group them in my own folder.
I put all the ones I wanted back into Favorites. Now my entire Photos App is nice and tidy for the first time in four iPhones.

Hi everyone! I'm in need of extreme help. You see, today, two months ago I went out of the country from the United States of America. I took about 1500 pictures ONLY on my iPod touch. When I returned to the United States to my home, I accidentally deleted a little more than 100 pictures. Then, thinking I could get ALL of the pictures back at once, I restored my iPod touch from an iCloud backup I had a couple of days before. Instead of getting all of my pics back, they all got erased. The pictures that I did delete were deleted from Camera Roll AND Photo Stream (iCloud). Then, I was only able to get about 500 pictures back from iCloud. So about 1000 are still gone. When i did the restore, I thought all my pictures would be there, but they weren't and I couldn't possibly figure out why; because a restore from iTunes or iCloud is supposed to restore your device to the settings of the time you backed up your device. All of my other settings were just the way they were supposed tone for the time being, all except my pictures, which contained not one picture in any folder. So EVERYTHING from Cameta Roll was gone, and only about 500 pictures survived. I kept retoring and restoring, hoping they would come back but unfortunately they didn't. Then one time a restored again, I saw all of them back!! But then, within a blink of an eye, they disappeared as soon as I tapped on one picture. Then, I knew they were still in reach, but I just had to find them. Where could those 1000 pictures go? I looked up how to recover deleted photos, but I have to install a software. My computer CANNOT possibly take anymore software on it, my PC is very sensitive and I cannot delete anything off of it. Please please help me. What can I do to get my pictures back? They are memories that I can never EVER EVER get back. Thank you so much.
Please please help me, if you know how.

Hi all. Since updating my iphone 6 a couple days ago, I have discovered awful glitches in photos. When I save photos they do not get added to my camera roll. My Camera Roll and Photo Stream used to match. I would take a photo on the camera and I would see it on my photo stream. Yesterday, I added an edited photo to my camera roll by saving it (I thought). But it was not there. In the past, if I wanted a photo to post in any app, from Twitter to Facebook to Yelp, in order to retrieve it easily (if I had a lot of photos on my phone) I would sometimes text it to myself and then save it. It would be added to my camera roll. Then, when any app asked me to upload a photo, I could find it right at the beginning of my camera roll photos. Now, when I save a photo it does not appear on my camera roll. I discovered this yesterday when posting a Yelp review. I found the photo I wanted to use on my camera roll and it was way back at the beginning of the camera roll. I edited the photo. I saved it. It did not get added to my camera roll. So then I looked for the photo on the camera roll where I had originally found it way back at the beginning. The edited version of the photo was gone. Could not find my photo to upload to Yelp. Then I discovered it was the same with every other app on the phone.
PHOTO STREAM DISAPPEARED! This was my main problem and primary question until I tried to resolve the issue. I saw a message on my phone that said (I thought) that I needed to connect my phone to my laptop to restore icloud backups. So I manually connected my phone to my Mac Pro Laptop (2011) and backed up my photos. I made sure iCloud was turned on for photos. I have it set to Download and Keep Originals. It is also set to Upload to My Photo Stream. And iCloud sharing is turned on.
WHEN I connected my phone to my computer I got a message on my phone about setting it up for personal hotspot and it would not complete the update unless I replied. At first i did set it up, but it seemed to be an issue, so I simply let my phone and computer use my home wifi network. I don't need the personal hotspot, but it seemed to affect the photo issue further.
Now where I used to see Photo Stream and Camera Roll, it simply says All Photos. I am extremely confused. This is a mess. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!I restored it twice, once from icloud backup and then from my computer back up. I just restored again and set it up as a new iphone and now my photos are saving again. I was then able to sync apps and music from my itunes to my phone... So happy you wouldn't believe!!

THis is now the 5 th time I have written this !!!
I have a iPhone 4s i did the software update ages ago and lost the camera roll .....then I did the update and all my photos returned ...now on Christmas eve they all dissapeared
I now just albums .... All Photos but that only has 77 photos , and that's it over 1000 photos have just gone ??
PLease help me !!Why should we care how many times you've written this? Are you making multiple threads? Are they being deleted by the Hosts?
Did you make a backup of your iPhone before you updated the iOS?
Did you import the photos to your computer?
Were the photos in the Camera Roll, Photo Stream or synced iTunes albums? -

After downloading iOS 8, I lost all my pics. Last i checked, all of them were in photo stream. I cleared my camera roll to install the update but now all the pics are gone. My phone says there is about 700+ photos but only 300+ are displayed.
You might have to restore the pictures from your ""backup" you have on iCloud. But, then again, that would put your iPhone back to the last state it was in when doing that backup. But at least you would have all your pictures back.
iin any case, I wouldn't do any further backups or any changes to your iCloud account, until you've got your pictures back again. Proceed cautiously and carefully at this point, until you get an answer that will safely restore the pictures. -
Just updated our iPad2 to iOS 7, and all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere. Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.
We're you backing up to a computer using iTunes? If so, restore the backup from there.

When I try backing up to icloud it says that I have gone over the free 5gb. It shows that I have 4.6 gb of pictures in my camera roll when I barely have over 200 pictures! Any similiar problems or possible solutions?
You're welcome. Given the number of people who seem to have problems restoring photos from their backup I wouldn't trust the iCloud backup for my photos anyway. I always import them to my computer at least weekly. That way I know I have them.
You might want to check out the app PhotoSync. It makes this pretty easy as it transfers them to your computer wirelessly and keeps track of which ones have already been transferred. -
Have just updated my phone with the latest update and all my photo's have gone to internal storage. how do i get them back in to my camera roll so i can view them on my phone.
Pictures are not designed to be kept in the Camera Roll... that is simply temporary storage for when you are taking pictures. Try reading this and this to see if it clears it up for you.
