Cannot Find or Download My Pictures from my iPad

I am using a first generation iPad which has some pictures saved on there from before.
I have bought a new MacBook Pro, and when I plug this iPad into my new MacBook Pro, I cannot find or see these pictures anywhere in my iTunes or my iPhoto and therefore cannot download them.
I want to save all the content from my iPad before reformatting it, however I need to save this pictures before doing so. How can I back up/download these pictures without losing them?

If the photos were originally synced from a computer then your Mac won't see them, it will only see photos taken with an iPad (including screenshots), those copied to it via the camera connection kit and those saved from emails/websites etc.
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they were on the computer that they were synced from.

  • How can I download my pictures from my Ipad (ios 8.1.3) to to my computer (windows 7) either directly thru a USB cable or indirectly with a SD card?

    How can I download my pictures from my Ipad (ios 8.1.3) to to my computer (windows 7) either directly thru a USB cable or indirectly with a SD card?  I have lost important pictures on the computer.  Most of them are intact on my I Pad.  I am aware that I-Cloud is an option, but would rather do it another way.

    use the Windows Photo import with the lightning-to-USB cable.

    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page -  if you connect the iPad to your Mac and open iPhoto then the it should recognise the iPad as a camera and allow you to copy those photos off.

    I have just download Lightroom5 & Photshop today and now I cannot seem to upload any of my photos from the camera card, why?
    Message was edited by: Bgreen

    Tony is right. What camera (make and model)? Mac or PC? Which version of Lightroom (5.0? 5.3?) Are you downloading from the camera or from a card reader?
    What is the exact error message that you're getting?

  • Cannot delete (non-downloaded) video podcasts from my iPad

    Using iTunes on my iPad, I tried to download some video podcasts from CNN and Discovery Channel. For 4 days now, I have had 4 episodes sitting in my "Downloads" section, witht the words "waiting" underneath.
    I have searched the discussion forums and the web for answers.
    I have done hard restarts.
    I have downloaded the above podcasts directly to iTunes on my computer, and tried to sync them with my iPad. It said that the iPad could not play that type of content.
    I have deleted the podcasts from my computer and synced with the iPad again.
    All to no avail; I cannot remove the 4 offending episodes.
    Please, someone, help!
    Many thanks

    I am confused. Do you mean you found the music, not the tones, or you can't find either?
    If the former, then this is normal. You can't redownload tones from the Cloud.

  • How do I find and download my pictures and movies that were saved in icloud and itunes library?

    How do I find and download my pictures that were saved to itunes and icloud in my itunes match? I think that I lost my pictures and I really do need them.

    Your pictures are not saved in iTunes Match; that is a music service. If you restore your device from a backup saved in iCloud, you will get pictures back, but any pictures taken since the backup will be lost, so you will want to import those to your computer first.

  • If I wanted to download my pictures from my iphone to my MAC without allowing upload from the MAC of old pics and without utlizing icloud how do I go about it? Thank you!

    Hi all!
    I was trying to download my pictures from my iphone to my MAC for storage so that I can erase them off my iphone but could not find an easy
    was to do this? The whole sync operation seems cumbersome and only allows you to upload photos from your MAC to your iphone - but that is the
    exact opposite of what I need! Also I have many pics so I don't want to use iCloud. All I want is just to take the pics from iphone and download
    them to my MAC? Am I asking for too much ? Can anyone help me?
    Cheers

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

    Plug your iPad into your computer. THere may be a delay while it installs drivers but if you can see your iPad in windows explorer, use that to get to your photos.
    Click on your iPad and you should see a DCIM folder. Click thorugh that to find your photos.
    Windows explorer will see your iPad as nothing more than a digital camera, and that's the part you're trying to access.
