Distorted picture from camera and all photos that come in

Got iphone 4 today, camera works but it is distorted almost and wont bring up photos to their full quality even through the internet or you tube footage. Anyone know what to do?

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  Next, I did a sync with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files?

    I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  I later sync my ipad with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files other than reloading all of them from camera?

    What version of iPhoto?
    Select one and rotate it. Then rotate it back. Does that make it appear? 
    A much better work flow is the keep the photos after importing.  Check the success the import, wait for at least one successful backup cycle then use you camera's format command to reformat the card

  • TS3989 Cannot get pictures from camera roll to photo stream on my iPhone

    I have tried everything.  I have picture taken about 2 weeks ago on my iPhone that I can't get from the camera roll to the photo stream  I want them on my iPad  through the upload to iCloud. I have tried closing the camera, am on wifi and have settings set correctly and have my iPhone charging.  And then I just added a picture took all the steps and this picture DID get to photo stream.  Hoe do I get the other groupmof photos there?

    Only pix taken after photo stream is turned on are added to photo stream (as well as camera roll). Older pix are not.
    To get the older ones to a computer, sync using USB. You can also take a screen shot in the device when viewing an older picture (press home and power buttons together, quickly).  This will add the photo to the stream, but the disadvantage is that the resolution will be that of the screen, which is much less than the original picture.

  • IPhone 4 - Move Pictures from "Camera Roll" to "Photo Library"

    Title says it all. How do I copy images from my iPhone "Camera Roll" to my "Picture Library"?

    The idea is photos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Do you leave photos captured by any other digital camera on the camera - the photos captured by the camera are not imported by your computer?
    Although photos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup, it isn't a good idea to depend on that alone for these photos. If you restore your iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed and there is a problem with your iPhone's backup in regards to this data and these photos were not imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, guess what?

  • Downloading pictures from camera

    I am trying to transfer new pictures from camera (they come up in a search so I know they are in the computer)...BUT I am unable to transfer them to the place where all my other photos are ('My {Pictures').
    When the search results are on the screen there is no option to create new file names and move individual pictures to the new files. i.e./ I want to file pictures under different topics.
    I have many other files (done in the past). For some reason this morning I cannot find the right options.
    Maybe something has changed?
    Maybe I have to buy something?
    Maybe I am too stupid to have a computer?
    Maybe I should be doing something more useful>?
    HELP.........!!!!

    Downloading pictures from camera
    I downloaded photos from my camera.....not sure which program I used.....I THINK it is Adobe Photoshp starter edition 3.0.
    But I dont know where those photos are.
    When I search them....they all come up under a file name that I used. But then they are in a place called Search Results (of course).
    However ...with all my other photos (downloaded months ago)...under that same file name, there are only 3 photos transferred to it.
    At some point this morning, I was able to click and drag and drop into the file where I want it.
    My hope was to subdivide about 99 pictures into 4-5 different folders. I ran into problems when I was trying to set up new folders with different names.
    I think, maybe, I have downloaded at different times using different programs. then different programs would not speak to each othere!??!
    Things pop up and I follow thru.....now today....after 3-4 hrs messing with this I recognize that there are 3 different systems in my terminal: Dell's, Adobe and Corel.
    Can you follow all of this?
    I really appreciate hearing from someone.....
    Thanks in advance for your efforts.

  • I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac.  I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " the picture you are trying to print is in the iphoto library"  what can i do to be able to print a photo from iphoto

    I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac.  I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " unreadable file: the following file could not be imported.  the file is in the iphoto library folder"  also when i try to print a picture from iphoto i get a message that says "no page was selected"
    not sure what happened but i can pnly print when i drop the photo onto my desktop as an 8.5 x 11 size picture and i am trying to print 4x6's

    Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message.  If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

  • How do I down load pictures from Camera Roll that were

    How do I down load pictures from Camera Roll on my iPhone to my Mac Pro that were taken prior to iCloud?

    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. This was the same prior to photo streaming with iCloud and remains the same since.
    With a Mac, you can use iPhoto for the import which also supports iCloud photo streaming, or the Image Capture application.

  • How do I transfer photos from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that they sync w/ my PC?

    I want to take pics w/ the phone and then view them on my PC. I can't seem to get the photos and video to move from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that I can work with them on my PC. I can move pics on my PC into the photostream upload folder and those appear quicklly on my phone in the photo stream album.

    How do you do that? I've tried through iPhoto and iTunes and in neither case are the images/videos from the Camera Roll accessable. Images from Photo Stream are, but not Camera Roll. And since images/videos saved from Messages end up in Camera Roll, I can't figure out how to get them either into Photo Stream or transfered to my computer.

    Recently I downloaded photos from an sd card. When the download was complete all photos were loaded in a random fashion completely out of order.This is the first time it has ever happened this way. downloaded same card to iPhoto and all photos were in order. Help needed. Am working on a job that needs immediate attention and HDR images out of order are impossible to deal with.

    Thanks for your help. The out of numerical order comes before the actual import begins. It happens when first uploaded to Lightroom and prior selection of of photos to imported to the catalog.

  • I sent a picture from camera roll to my computer over 12 hours ago and it hasn't arrived what can I do?

    I sent a picture from camera roll to my computer over 12 hours ago and it hasn't been received.  Since then, I've tried to send smaller ones to my computer and they have not arrived either.  Is there a queue I need to go into to delete the first picture that may be holding everything else up?  Or what can I do to unblock this feature?

    How may I print out a picture from paper and not the photo tray?

    From paper?  Do you have a digital image of it on your iPhone?
    "Photo tray"?  What do you mean here?  The iPhone does not have a photo tray.  Printers have trays.

  • Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files?

    Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files? I just want to view / delete files without importing them.
    For instance I have 1200 photos on my iPhone Camera Roll. Some of these are shots, that I've taken multiple times, some good, some bad. I just want to clean up my Camera Roll, but going through the pictures on the iPhone's small screen is tedious. I'd much rather look at the camera roll's photo's on my Mac, and then decide which files I'd like to keep, and which to delete.
    I don't want to import the files, as when I import the files, and delete them from Camera Roll, now the Photo's are not on my phone, and the only way to get them back on my Phone is to Import them back in using iTunes, and then they go into the Picture Library and not the Camera Roll.
    In the same way as I can view Pics from my digital camera's SD card on a Mac without having to actually copy them to my computer, is there any app out there that will let me view my iPhone pics without importing them.

    The short answer is yes.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.
    Open Image Capture application.
    Click on the 4 little squares at bottom to view them as photos, not a list.
    Select the photos them click the No Entry icon at bottom to delete.

  • How can I put selected pictures from camera roll into a seperate album removing them completly from camera roll??

    Im gunna be straight up honest here.. I have some rude pictures of my girlfriend on my iphone which I would like to keep for my own personal viewing but obviously dont want family and friends seeing when they are flicking threw my camera album which often happens. I had intended to make a private album put them all in there and put a passcode on the album. With all of apples features I would of thought this would be a standard thing you could do, however when I made the private album the pictures were still in my camera roll and if I try to delete them I am told the pictures will be removed completly from my phone.. This is stupid. What is the point in being able to make albums if the pictures are going to still all be in the camera roll!? Does anybody know of a way I can move pictures from camera roll to a private album?? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Photos placed in a user created album or in an existing album are not copied/duplicated. The photos placed in an album include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Camera Roll. Having an album for select photos is for viewing the select photos only without having to see all photos in the Camera Roll.
    The same applies to albums transferred from your computer. All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the Photo Library. Photos on the albums below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos appear as they are duplicated when they are not. This way you can view the photos in an album only by selecting the album, or all photos on the Photo Library or Camera Roll by selecting it.
