Do photo filenames repeat themselves when taken on my phone

I have a situation where the photos are backed up on a time capsule. Photostream is on as well. When I select a photo I want to see it picks up another photo leaving me to believe the filenaming of the photo may repeat after 9999 photos. Can anyone confirm this? Also if I have 5 years of photos on my phone how do I selectively delete them in bulk if I only want to keep say 1 year on my phone but archive the rest.
Thanks

These pics are not of the sync process at all.
As the manual explains, you import these as you would with any digital camera.

Trouble syncing photos~~only few photos show(repeat themselves), rest black

Ok. Well I have about 393 pictures on my ipod and for some reasons, almost all of them are not showing, except for about 10 new ones I added to the folder I have allowed to be synced onto my nano. Not only that, but those photos repeat themselves 3 times!! I have restarted my iPod two times, un-synced my photos and re-synced them again, and still nothing. I'm not sure if I restore the original settings would be the thing to do, but I don't want to wait for the whole iPod to sync every little thing again. Can someone please help me? I would really appreciate it!

How much space do you have in your iPod?

When I leave my iphone in my room and went out. After I came back, I find several apps which was not opened before had been opened. It here are also 8-10 photos of my ceiling being taken, includes video. Also my home page picture has been changed.

Hello Karelyn,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting

I don't see photos in My Photo Stream on my iOS device.
Ensure that the Camera app is closed on the device that took the photo. Photos will not upload from an iOS device to My Photo Stream until the Camera app is closed.
Ensure that your iOS device has not fallen below 20% battery power. To preserve battery life, Photo Stream downloading and uploading are disabled when the battery reaches this threshold. Downloading and uploading will resume once you charge your device and the battery charge is greater than 20%.
Best of luck,
Mario

I updated my iPhone 4S to the iOS 5.1 software last Friday. I noticed on Saturday that only the photos I had taken with my 4S were gone. Where did they go when I syned my phone for the software update?

I updated my iPhone 4s to the iOS 5.1 last Friday. I noticed the next day that the pictures that I had taken with only this phone were gone from my photos. I still have over 1600 pictures on my phone that are there, only the ones taken from this device are missing. Where did they go when I syned my phone? I can't find them in my iTunes.

You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly, particularly before any update, restore, etc.
If for some reason you have failed to do this, tehn they are very likely gone.
You can try restoring from backup.

Photos coming out darker with a white backdrop when taken outside

I am trying to take some photos of my product outside because the light seems to be better at picking up all the colors than when I've taken them inside but now when I'm taking the photos with the white backdrop they are coming out darker than when I had the backdrop painted lime green. I took the photos at 8am right when the sun had the backdrop lite up the most I live in Florida for time zone questions. the other photos where taken at 9:30 and they came out a lot better but had a glare in them.should I go back and paint the backdrop green again or have any other ideas. PS I have adobe Photoshop elements 9. any idea on how to take out the glare in a photo when taken outside. and is their a website that can tell me when the best time is to take an outside photo in my region

think you for all you help but one thing im still confused about is northern light. does that mean to have the item placed to the south west to have the sun to the north of the item?
Northern light means that the only light falling on the product is coming from the North sky (in other words, your product is in the shade of the house). Specifically for your speargun products, your setup will be like this:
Get a medium gray background larger than your spearguns. This is especially important if some of the guns are camouflaged. If you can't find a cloth backdrop from a photo supply house, look in some fabric stores. If not, then get a couple of 30in. x 40in. sheets of matte board from an artist's supply store.
Place the product and background in the shade of your house, waiting until the shadow of the house is long enough so that your camera will also be in the shade. (A side benefit is that you'll be cool. )
Put your camera on a tripod.
Set the camera and tripod in the middle of the speargun, moving the camera back until the complete speargun is in the picture when using a "normal" focal length lens. You can slightly decrease the focal length to the wide angle setting if necessary to get the whole speargun in the picture, but be aware that the more wide your lens is, the more the product will be distorted.
At that point, you should be good to go. Let the camera use its automatic everything to take the picture and it should look good. If you want, you can also experiment with a couple of shots using flash as a fill-in light, but that might cause some glare off parts of the speargun.
The photos will have two things happening that slightly complicate matters:
Northern light will be bluish because the light source is the blue sky. That blue cast will be over the entire image, so you can quickly and easily use PSE to remove the blue cast because you won't have to select anything -- just remove the cast from the entire image.
Depending on what you use to support the speargun on the background, you might get shadows, etc., and want to then separate the speargun into its own image with a transparent background. Using a gray background will make that process easier because selecting the gun will be a snap.
Hope that's not too much info to absorb....
Ken
P.S., Depending on what the original colours are, you can easily use PSE to "pop" the colours before saving the images as PNGs for the Web.

Filenames keep duplicating themselves when new rolls are added!!

I used to use an older Sony digital camera to take photos. Each of the photos filnames from that camera began with "DSC", now I use a Nikon D40 and those photos' filenames also begin with "DSC" and in most cases have the exact same filename from previous dates. I have so many photos that use the same exact filename that it is such a pain to locate each and every photo to rename each one differently everytime I import new photos. Is there a setting in iPhoto that would help create brand new filenames with each and every import so that I wouldn't have to rename them manually?? Or is it an issue with the camera??
Ro

Your camera names he files, and as Larry says, all iPhoto does is copy them over.
Filenames are really irrelevant in iPhoto. It’s well capable of managing multiple files of the same name. What you can do is add a Title to a photo using the Info Pane (Lower left) or batch change many photos using the Photos -> Batch Change command. These titles are as searchable as filenames in iPhoto or any of the apps that integrate with it.
If you want to use the Photos outside the iPhoto ecosystem then you can use the File -> Export command and use the option in the export window to use the Title as filename on the exported image.
Options other than that include moving the files from your camera to the Deskkop first and then using a Batch Renaming utility such as Name Mangler prior to importing them.
To find your pics...
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Icloud Lost photos in Camera Roll when I backed up to my Mac

I recently took a bunch of photos (while synced with icloud) and upgraded my phone from 4g to 4gs...I saw my pictures on the phone prior to syncing to my computer (macbook). When I synced my phone to my computer, off of the old back-up (on my mac), i lost all the photos in my icloud that I had taken prior. I have looked everywhere for them with no Luck. Note: The new phone had icloud set up to sync (to include pictures).
So my question is, is there a saved backup in the icloud server i can get them back? where did they go? Why are some of the older ones there, but the newer ones are not? what is really strange is i have photos on the cloud from before AND after those pics I am looking for, but those are missing. please help!
Thx....

Hi. This sounds like a refresh issue. Can you try the following. Navigate within PS Touch one level up to the "Local Photos" - see attached scrrenshot. After that try to access your photos form the Camera Roll again.
Hope that helps.

Is it possible to put the photos on my iPhone 5 onto my MacBook Pro? The photos that I am trying to do this with we're not taken from the phone. They were imported from a computer.

In iOS 7, apps refresh themselves when switching back to them

I often work with one app and switch to another app, then return to the original. After upgrading to iOS 7, it seems that apps (or web pages in Safari) now sometimes refresh or reload themselves when I switch back to them rather than simply presenting me with what I had before. It's not a behavior I like. For instance, say I'm looking at a photo in my photo app Photo Manager Pro. I switch to another app, then when I come back, Photo Manager Pro seems to reload itself and starts all over at its splash screen, so it takes extra tapping to get back to the picture I was looking at. And Safari sometimes refreshes web pages when you return to Safari from another app.
It seems to happen sometimes but not others, and I can't figture out the pattern.
I don't think this has to do with the "Background App Refresh" feature as none of these auto-refreshing apps are in the apps list under Settings -> General --> Background App Refresh.
Any help in figuring out what's going on?

This is a problem many and probably all are having with iOS7 "Multitasking."
Here is probably the largest and most helpful thread about it, but it doesn't fix anything: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24582055#24582055

My daughter's older Ipod Touch is having a problem with images becoming pixilated when taken from an e-mail and placed into her camera roll. ( She wants to put on Instagram ) Any help?

My daughter's older Ipod Touch is having a problem with images becoming pixilated when taken from an e-mail and placed into her camera roll. ( She wants to put on Instagram ) Any help?

I think that may be a consequence of the email provider she is using. Some services (AOL is one example) inspect and modify email attachments, particularly photos, resulting in reduced resolution compared to the email that was sent.
The iPod does not do this. The resolution of the picture in the email she receives will be identical to what is imported.

Cannot see photo filenames

I am operating with Yosemite, 10.10.3. Just see 'upgraded' Photos app replaces iPhoto, but now I cannot see photo filenames in the list view when inserting photos into a document, only thumbnail in 'Name' column. I need to be able to see filenames. Help. Please forgive poor construct of my question, I am first timer.
