Can I get Camera Roll photos onto my iPad?

In addition to dealing with that annoying optimizing/syncing over 6,000 photos everytime I sync my iPad with my iTunes, I find that none of the Camera Roll photos from the iPhone that I also sync with the same iTunes comes over.
When I moved from my iPhone 3 to my iPhone 4, (and when I lost an iPhone 3 and got a replacement), the backup/restore feature worked flawlessly, so I know that a copy of my iPhone photos are on my computer.
How can I get them over to my iPad?
(Also, does anyone know an easy way to convert them to jpg and where, specifically, do they live in the iPod Photo Cache folder???)
Thanks!
Randy

The iPod Photo Cache folder is just a temporary folder used for sync. You can delete it and it will be recreated next time you sync.
"When you use iTunes to sync photos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod, iTunes creates a folder called "iPod Photo Cache" in the top level of the folder you selected for your photos. Picking another folder to sync does not erase the previous iPod Photo Cache folder. Depending on how many photos are being synced, your hard drive could fill up."

How have you transfered you iPhone photos to your iPad? The photos I take with my 4G iPod Touch are jpgs when synced to my computer. You need to place your iPhone photo is a single folder and place that folder in the folder you use to sync your photos.

  • How can I move Camera Roll photos from my old iPhone 3G to my new iPhone 4?

    Hi,
    I have just got my new iPhone 4 and I'm very happy with it, really a great step-up from my old 3G. I do have one question though, in my old iPhone 3G I have about 300 photos in the camera and I would like to export them and then import them to the camera roll in my new iPhone 4...is this possible?
    Thanks in advance for your input guys!
    //Richard

    Only if you restore your new phone from the backup of your old phone. Camera roll photos are included in your iphone backup. However, its not wise to keep photos in your camera roll. They should be imported to your computer on a regular basis. From there, you can then sync them back to your phone, but not back to your camera roll.

  • My iPad mini, can only access camera roll photos. When posting on facebook. I can not access shared photos from my apple devices.

    problem with iPad mini and iPhone 5c and Facebook app. I can only access camera roll, when posting photos, I can not see shared photos. Which I could before the previous 3 updates. I did speak to Apple support but they said Facebook was behind. i think over 6 months later I still have the same problem!

    Thank you. Do you have any idea about the 5c, which is only 2 weeks old. Before this I had an iPhone 4, and you could choose which collection you wanted to post from,
    but my 5c is also only showing camera roll, pehich is rather annoying to say the least!

  • I cannot load more photos onto my iPad as I'm being told there is not enough storage. I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud so how can I now load more photos onto my iPad. Surely there is enough space!  Do I need to delete previous photos?

    I cannot load more photos onto my iPad even though I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud. As I am on holidays and taking loads of photos I thought  a good plan was to load them onto my iPad and then regularly back them up to iCloud. If I do this, do I then delete those photos from the iPad that I have backed up to iCloud and if I delete them from the iPad are they gone forever or can I somehow get them back from iCloud? I'm only new at all of this so I hope someone can assist me. I'd hate to lose all of my photos(I know they are still on my memory stick) but I would like to have them safe and secure and able to retrieved whenever I wish.

    You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
    Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
    Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
    If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
    On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
    Tap iCloud.
    Tap Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    In the Backups section, tap your device.
    In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
    To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

  • Hi trying to backup iphone camera roll but only the last taken pics will save, how do I get camera roll pics onto the photo stream?

    hi please help thank u

    When you set up photo stream on a device that takes pictures, then only newly taken pictures go to photo stream, not older ones.  To get them to photo stream, you must sync them to a computer and then on that computer (in iphone or Aperture if using a mac) copy the photos to the photo stream group.
    Read this...  import photos to your computer...

  • Transferring deleted camera roll photos onto Macbook

    My friend recently moved in and she wanted to recover some deleted photos from her camera roll on an iPhone 4. She doesn't have a computer here and recently switched to a different device. I also don't want to sync all of the photos from my Mac to her phone. Is there anything I can do?

    No.
    They would have to be somewhere in order to recover them.
    If she has not backed up to iCloud or a computer, and she has failed to import them to her computer as you should do regularly, then they are gone.
    Sorry

  • HT4623 Can not get camera of photo to take video anyone have an answer

    My iPad camera will not let me choose video. It won't go off photo. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    How are you trying to change between photo and video ? You should be able to change it by sliding the Video / Photo / Square options un/down so that the one that you want lines up with the yellow dot - is that how you are trying to do it and it's not working ?

  • Relationship between photo stream/camera roll/photo library and iPad/iPhone

    Tying myself in knots trying to fathom all this and with iPhoto added to the mix.
    I just seem to have photos all over the place with seemingly many duplications.
    Would love to know the system a well-organised person has to keep all this sorted.
    The most confusing thing is that the photo stream on my iPhone is different to the photo stream on my iPad and I had understood that this shouldn't be the case.
    (would also have been glad to have known that having written this message once' it would be deleted when I added new products to the list at the bottom)

    iCloud is a very simple and easy to use system.
    PhotoStream being one of the features as you know.
    On both iDevices, ensure that both are logged into the same iCloud account within Settings App.  Make sure PhotoStream is ON.
    That literally is all there is too it to get images syncing between devices.
    On your MacBook, you can also stream photos to computer - again, open the iCloud App in Sys Prefs, login with same AppleID.
    You can also manually upload images to the PhotoStream (from Mac) - are you doing this also? Maybe getting confused here?

  • How can I get a word document onto my ipad

    I tried emailing myself a word document and opening it on my ipad. The tutorial says I should just be able to touch on the attachment, but I get the message saying it can't open the document.

    Per the iPad tech specs:
    Mail attachment support
    Viewable document types: .jpg, .tiff, .gif (images); .doc and .docx (Microsoft Word); .htm and .html (web pages); .key (Keynote); .numbers (Numbers); .pages (Pages); .pdf (Preview and Adobe Acrobat); .ppt and .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint); .txt (text); .rtf (rich text format); .vcf (contact information); .xls and .xlsx (Microsoft Excel)
    What app generated the word document and what is the extension of that document?
    The iPad will open an emailed word document without any additional apps.

  • HT201317 Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4

    Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4.  Ive got everything turned on to support the icloud function and my itunes shows syncing, but nothing. Any ideas what Im missing?  Thanks A Million!

    You can delete them from your phone by opening the album that contains them, tap Edit, tap the photos you want to delete, the tap Delete.  You can also import camera roll photos to your computer and delete them after importing as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • Where are camera roll photos once I import them?

    In anticipation of getting my new iPhone, I imported all my camera roll photos onto my iMac and see they show up under Last Import.  However, I do not see them in Events.  Where will these photos be found once I import more photos?  I want to have them appear on the new iPhone.

    Tell Apple, not us.

    I found it a great chance for a clean out, given that I always back my photos up to iPhoto and therefore my System and Data backup for protection. Then I went to most recent and marked those I wished to keep on my phone as 'Favorites' and now have a nice clean folder of Favorites, which I will add to from 'Recently Added' and delete all the c*ap. Now I have a nice tidy phone, but still have all photos backed up on Mac. I don't use Photostream, as I would rather trust my own physical backup method. A great chance for a clean out. Thanks Apple!

  • How can I find/sync my old iPhone camera roll photos?

    I've searched about 5 different ways here on the forums and can't find an answer to this question. I recently upgraded my iPhone 3Gs to an iPhone 4. I backed up the old phone and just sold it a couple of days ago. Here's my problem: I can't find the folder containing my (old) camera roll photos so I can sync them to my new iPhone. I'm aware that iTunes doesn't back up camera roll photos, however I understand they are saved as part of the standard backup process. Are they included in the "iPod Photo Cache" and, if so, can I use this to copy them onto my new phone? Note that I was unaware until today that I can save camera roll photos on my PC using Windows Camera and Scanner or Adobe Photoshop; I'll start doing that tonight so I'll have them in a separate folder from now on. I'm running Windows Vista on my PC, FYI.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Is there a way for me to save what's currently on my phone?
    No. If you restore your new phone from a previous backup, all data on your phone will be erased & replaced with the data from your backup. However, if you don't want to do that you can see if this will recover the photos in question from your 3GS backup:

  • How can I restore Camera Roll to my iphone 4s? I have Photo Stream and am backed up on iCloud

    How can I restore Camera Roll to my iphone 4s? I have Photo Stream and am backed up on iCloud

    Syncing notes with iCloud requires it have the correct email address linked, as notes get synced with an email address.
    Now, assuming that you have successfully set that up, though most people don't first time around, then if you deleted the note from the phone, it will have deleted from iCloud as well.
    Meaning, unless you have that note located in a backup in iTunes or iCloud you won't be able to get it back.
    You can restore the iTunes backup simply by connecting to itunes and hitting restore backup. Only thing is, any info that changed since the backup was made will be lost. (i.e. if your backup is a month old, your phone will look like it did a month ago, and only have that info on it.)
    Or, you can restore from iCloud, which requires erasing all content and settings, then selecting that backup. SO, you can see the predicament.
