Copying photos from PC to iPhone

I was to copy a few pictures from my PC to my iPhone. I have them in an album in PhotoShop Elements, so it should synch. It doesn't however: the box to do so is unchecked. When I check it, it tells me that it will delete all the photos and albums and replace them with the ones from the PC. I don't want to lose my camera roll photos, and I don't want ALL the photos from my PC on the iPhone. I have no ability to check the radio button that says to synch to selected albums only; the other button is checked, and it doesn't give me the opportunity to change it before that warniign box appears. When I try to open the iPhones files, it won't let me copy the photos over, either. Can you give me aany advice?.

Hello everyone,
We just released Photo Transfer, an iPhone app that lets you transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone or iPod touch over wifi.
The app it's super simple to use and makes transferring photos ver easy without having to use iTunes at all. You can also transfer photos from your iPhone to your computer or from one iPhone to another.
I hope you can check it out and find it useful:

How to copy photos from mac to iphone

Is there a way I can copy photos from my mac to my iphone

"Yeah but I cannot fleet them directly form my iphone"
That is correct. Photos synced from the computer to iphone are deleted the same way - the sync process.
" I want the pictures in my camera roll is there any third party app that could do that"
You can do this from the iphone itself or you can do it when you import them to your computer, There is no need for an app.

Now able to copy photos from PC to iPhone - Here is how it worked for me!

This is a long one!
Most of us come here for the first time looking for answers on how to do something or to find out what we or our iPhones are doing wrong. I've been looking and watching the threads for over a week on several questions I have, one of which is why I "couldn't get photos from my PC to my iphone". I kept trying so many things I even unintentionally deleted the photos I had taken with the iphone camera. Luckily I had (somehow) downloaded them to my PC, but the problem was I couldn't get them back on to my iphone nor add other pictures to my iphone.
Well, if you are like me you look for the tiniest bit of information that may help work and reduce the frustration. I'm not really sure what happened to make it work correctly, but it did and has been working ever since. This may not help everyone but if it helps just one that is having the same problem I was, it will be worth me posting my resolution here. Again I'm not sure it will help but here is what made it work for me! Please tell us if it did or did work for you?
Ok here is what I did: I made a special folder on the root of one of the other drives (not my C drive) I have on my PC and called it "iPhone Pics and Movies". Under that I made two folders: one called "My iPhone Movies", the other called "My iPhone Pictures" (no quotes in any of those). I then took a small .jpg picture that was already on my PC (in another place), made a copy and renamed it with my daughters name( because it's a picture of her). It's five letters long starting with a capital letter and has no spaces, numbers, or any other symbols or characters. Then, I have an old version of Adobe Photoshop and used it to edit the photo size to near (not over) 640x480 (or vice versa in landscape). If you don't have Adobe Photoshop I don't know if it will work but would like to hear if it does from anyone that was having the same problem I was and this helped. The next thing I did was take that one picture I adjusted the size on and copy (not drag and drop) and paste into the folder I created My iPhone pictures. Then made sure my iphone wasn't connected, opened iTunes 7.4.1 (the new one) and selected the music on the left window (not that it would matter I guess). I made sure my iphone was off and connected it to the PC USB port, (clicked off the preverbal iPhone connected which program to use window that pops up) and let itunes finish seeing my iphone. Clicked on the iphone that now shows up in "Devices" on the left. BTW, I don't have anything selected in the "Options" area of the Summary Tab. Neither of those selections are checked at the bottom. I then went to the upper photos tab. When that window opened, I then unchecked the sync at the top and reselected it to have a check mark in it. Then changed the "sync photos from field" location to "Choose Folder" and browsed to and clicked on the new "iPhone Pics and Movies" (NOT the lower sub folder my iphoto pictures - not yet anyway) and then said OK. In iTunes, it immediatly populated the lower selection window with the two sub folders I made. Now I put a check mark in the "selected folders" block and it indicated I have (1) photo (which is correct only having my daughters photo in there. * I didn't do more than one photo at first because I had tried all this with more than one before and it didn't work. So just putting one in there at first seems to have jump started the process correctly (at least that's what worked for me). I then clicked on the bottom right (itunes right of the capacity bar) either "sync" or "add" (which ever was showing at the time). The process window at the top said it was processing photos (a good sign). When the sync rotor stopped on the device for iphone. I unplugged it from my PC and immediatly turned it on and went to photos happily and (FINALLY) to see three selections listed under photo albums. The standard "camera roll", a new "Photo Library (1)", AND (cheers from the crowd) "My iPhone Pictures (1)". Of course I selected my iphone pictures and there was the picture of my daughter. I shut down my iphone, closed itunes and proceeded to copy more photos to "My iPhone Pictures" folder. Then went through the whole process again and saw all my pictures in "My iPhone Pictures" folder showing up in my iphone.
NOTE: A folder will be created buy iTunes on your PC in your version of the "My iPhone Pictures" folder. That folder will be named by iTunes as "iPod Photo Cache". Don't change, move, or delete it. Just leave it alone. If you do you will have to start the whole process all over again (that's what happened to me).
This was long, but I wanted to make sure you had all the steps correctly to try for yourself. This has worked well ever since I "jump started it". I now have 36 pictures in my iPhone and will be adding more. If it helps, Good! If not, don't blame me, I was just telling you that it did work for me. Good Luck! Please take a minute to write a reply here if it did or did not work for you.

or... put your photos in "My Pictures" in My Documents, and viola, itunes syncs it to the iphone. only one sentence needed =/
maybe im missing your point here, the long paragraph is mindboggling

How do I copy Photos from iPhone to PC?

This sounds like a very simple question. And with my digital cameras, and old phones, this is just a case of connecting the device to the PC. and copying the files from the device to my harddrive. But with my iPhone this seems very confusing and awkward...
It seems I have to use iTunes. And it is something to do with 'syncing'. However, when I select my iPhone device in iTunes, and select the Photos tab. Pressing 'sync' does nothing. And If I select the checkbox beside 'Sync photos from:'. It warns me:
"Are you sure you want to sync photos? All existing photos and albums on the iPhone "....." will be replaced with photos and albums from the selected folder."
I have a problem here. I'm using my girlfriend's computer, and she has 1000's of photos. While I have a few hundred on my iPhone taken from our recent outings and holidays. I'm afraid that if I continue click 'Sync Photos', it'll replace (i.e. delete) all my photos/albums on my iPhone, and copy 1000's of photos from the PC, which I have no interest on putting on my iPhone. I fail to see the point in this??? - I want to take photos on my iPhone, and copy them off onto my PC, I do not want to copy photos from my PC and put them on my iPhone to view.
What should I do? This whole 'syncing' concept, is pretty alien to me? It seems like the idea with iTunes/iPod/iPhone world is about duplicating data you have on one device on another, which spirals out of control. I'm also afraid of charging my iPhone at work, because it wants to constantly sync, and backup all my personal information (i.e. Emails/Photos/Videos) from my iPhone to my work computer, which means that any sys admin can potentialy log into my computer and dig thru my personal information?
I've heard of these 3rd party pieces of software. But I don't see why I have to buy something else, just to copy photos off, when I have already forked out so much money on buying an iPhone. I've read other guides on the internet, and there is mention of being able to view the iPhone as a 'Camera device' in My Computer, and then be able to copy folders like you would on a regular digital camera, but that option is not available for me, only iTunes detects the iPhone, just about.
If you could help me, I'd be much grateful!

What is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes is for transferring photos from your computer to your iPhone only - not for importing photos from your iPhone's camera roll to your computer. As with iTunes content, photos can be transferred to an iPhone from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
When there are photos in your iPhone's camera roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to a computer. With a Mac, photos can be imported by iPhoto or by the Image Capture application included with OS X, as with any other digital camera.
With Windows, you can use the Windows Camera and Scanner wizard as with any other digital camera. Or with your iPhone connected, you should be able to manually transfer the photos from your iPhone to your computer, which should be available via Windows Explorer.
Under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deselect automatically sync when this iPhone is connected. Or iTunes includes a global preference setting at iTunes > Preferences under the Devices tab to not automatically sync when any iPod or iPhone is connected.

Has anyone encountered problems copying photos from iPhone 4 to PC (Windows)?

I have been copying photos from my iPhone to a Windows PC but somewhere along the way, the copying just stops. At first I thought that it was because the phone was Auto-Locking but I set Auto-Locking to Never. I eventually had to manually copy missing photos from the phone to PC. I am using Windows Explorer to see all the files in the phone's internal storage, then copying into a folder onto the PC. Don't know if this is a Windows problem or something on the phone but I have never encountered something like this before.

How do I copy photos from a text message to my "Photos" location on my iPhone 5s?

My friends send me photos via text messaging and I try to copy them to my "photos" location on my iPhone 5s. So far, I've only been able to create a folder for the photos but have had no luck in copying photos from iPhone text messages to iPhone "Photos" location. My computer OS is Windows XP Pro 64 bit, the most unsupported OS on the planet....even by Microsoft.

After updating to IOS 6.0.1 I cannot copy photos from the iPhoto library to the iPhone. The events appear correctly but the photo count in all the Events is 0

Same problem here, and it's not isolated.

I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail. In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync. Mine just fails silently. :-)

When I make sincronization my photos from PC to IPhone using ITunes why I always get a duble copy of folders wit photos ??

When I make sincronization my photos from PC to IPhone using ITunes why I always get a duble copy of folders wit photos ??

That is correct.
I just explained thatto you.
Thre are NOT duplicates.
ALL photos synced to iphone will be in the "Photo mediateka". You can ALSO access those exact same photos from you named folder. If you had mulitiple photos, then all of the photos would be in the "Photo mediateka" and you could also access the exact same pics from each of the folders.
You do not have duplicates. it is working exactly as it should.

Hello Lakshminarayanafromgbr,
Welcome to Apple Support communities.
I have attached several articles relating to copying photos to your Mac from your iPhone. The first is importing directly from the phone to the Mac. The next two are on setting up and using Photo Stream through iCloud.

You should erase all contents and setting before giving your iphone away.
