Copying Photo Albums from the iPhone to my new MacBook
I put some photo albums on my iPhone from my old laptop. I didn't take the photos with the iPhone, but they are stored there. How do I copy them to my new MacBook? Can I perform a photo synch without erasing them?
This is really something they should make possible. Being able to view the iPhone as an attached USB device so we can drag things over like any other hard drive. My computer crashed and the last think I had thought of was to backup the images I made specifically to upload to my iPhone (portfolio images). Nnow I'm left having to redo it cause I want to update it and can't cause it will just replace the existing folder with the new data. Ugh.

Photo album from the iPhone to iPhoto in the Mac
When i create a photo album in the Iphone and put pictures in it still from the iPhone, how can i transfer it to the mac: album with the pictures already in it so that it is not necessary to create the album again in the Mac?
iPhone iOS 6 and latest iPhoto and MacOs
Thanks a lotNo. All imports go into a new Event. How many new events are created is determined by what you set in iPhoto's General preference pane in regards to how Events are autosplit during import:

charles altmanReplying 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.....

How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?
To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply. -
i have sync'ed a folder of photos from my other laptop to my iphone 4, i couldnt copy it from the iphone to my new laptop, even when i go through as normal internal storage the folder doesnt appears
Correct. The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The photo sync is one way - computer to iphone.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. -
I want to remove photo albums from my iphone, since they are eating up my storage capacity. The tutorial says I should be able to 'change' and then select 'remove' , but there is no such thing as a remove button... Can anyone help me?
How did the photos/albums get onto the phone ?
Only photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the phone - either via the trashcan icon at the bottom right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it top right in thumbnail view. Albums that you've created directly on the phone can be deleted via the Edit button at the top right of the album selection screen.
Photos/albums that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing -
How to export a photo album from my iphone that was previously imported from another mac?
Again, I'd like to export a photo album from my iphone to my mac. What is unique here is that the album was originally imported from another mac to my iphone. When I open iphoto on my mac it will import everything else but this particular album. It's from my old iphone that crashed but I was lucky enough to export the pics from my old phone to another mac and then import them to my new iphone. Great as that is, I'd still like to export them to my mac. HELP, thoughts, ideas
Sync it to your new computer.
Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync. -

How can i get a pdf from my iPhone to my new macbook? I keep trying to sync but it says it will delete all the books/pdfs on my phone. I don't have this pdf on my computer and don't want to lose it. I am using the same iTunes account. Any suggestions?
Hello ashlyn888,
Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

How do I transfer my music from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?
I'm wondering how I can transfer my music, etc from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The syncis one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -
How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook?
How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook? The photos are already migrated, but I've lost all the old groupings in the albums and I don't want to manually re-group the thousands of photos!!!
I was using version 6.0.6 of iPhoto.
My issue is that I already have sorted the photos into Albums - about 50 of them. And now on my new computer I can't see any of the albums I had sorted them into, and I don't want to have to recreate all those Albums! That was one of the primary reasons I stuck with Apple when I upgraded. Had I known it wouldn't bring the albums over, I probably wouldn't have bought another apple.
Is there any way to get all the work I've already done in organising my photos onto my new computer? Thanks for your help.

Two backups are better than one. Hard drives do fail.
