Downloading Canon pictures onto the iPhone - possible?

For my iPod I bought the accessory that enabled one to download camera pictures directly to the iPod without first "going through" the computer. I would now like to do the same with my iPhone but when I plug in the camera, I get the message that "this accessory is not supported." Does anyone know how I can make that accessory supportable?
Thank you

Does anyone know how I can make that accessory supportable?
You can't. Photos can only be added to your phone by taking them with your camera app, saving from emails, MMS or Safari or syncing to your phone through the iTunes sync process.

    You're welcome.
    All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library regardless if you select a single album or folder of photos to be transferred or multiple albums or folders. The photos on the albums or folders of photos include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos are not duplicated taking up double the storage space. This way you can view the photos in an album or folder of photos only by selecting the album or folder, or all photos in all albums or folders by selecting Photo Library.
    Makes more sense when transferring multiple albums or folders of photos which cannot be changed when transferring only a single album or folder of photos.
    The same applies with iTunes and music playlists. A song can't be in a playlist unless it is in the main iTunes library. Placing a song in a playlist does not duplicate the song.

  • 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

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.

  • Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes?, Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes?

    Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes? I thought the purpose of purchasing from itunes when you have icloud is that you don't have to download each song/album that you want to hear.  I get like 5-10 songs from the last two albums i have downloaded, but not the entire album.

    Are you talking about iTunes Match?  If so, you don't have to download entire albums, all you have to do is play the songs you want to hear.
    If you're asking why you have to download the music at all rather than just playing it from iCloud, the music has to be stored locally on your device, either in permanent or cache memory, in order for your device to play it.

  • I downloaded iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4 and updated the iTunes on my PC, WiFi connection works but somewhow it won't do anything when I plug the iPhone.

    I downloaded iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4 and updated the iTunes on my PC, WiFi connection works but somewhow it won't do anything when I plug the iPhone. Now, I got frustrated that neither iTunes nor my iPhone do anything. I need my iPhone to get it back to work regardless if it's back to the last version of iOS.

    I just encountered this problem for the first time and stumbled upon this forum to find a solution.  I played around with it a bit and it seems that if you slide your finger from the bottom up, you will come upon that new screen that will allow you to do various functions with your phone (put it in airport mode, lock, etc.), you can select your Airport from this screen and play your music wirelessly from your phone; at least this was my experience. Hope this helps!

    It should be in the Videos App - if it's not in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Resttrictions that is hiding it ?

  • How do I get safari bookmarks to update onto the iPhone?

    On my older iPhones, the Safari bookmarks always used to slurp up from my computer onto the phone so I could use them on the phone. Now, that does not happen, the bookmarks on the phone are old and never update when I plug my phone into iTunes to update.
    What setting do I need to revisit to make Safari bookmarks update from the computer onto the iPhone?
    TIA,
    Ken

    I do not subscribe to any other than the basic iCloud I am forced into having and I noticed also, in settings on the phone under 'info' in iTunes when the phone is plugged in, says that bookmarks are being updated through iCloud. This cannot be true as my bookmarks have not updated for a long time, I think since iCloud came into existence. Maybe this is an iCloud issue?
    I don't want to fiddle with settings in the 'info' section as many of them say that there will be duplicates if I choose to use my computer as the source for updates. It is very dangerous as I already have duplicate calendar entries and suspect this has happened because of iCloud coming into the picture. It is very scary.

  • Tethering doesn't allow download of updates to the iphone itself??

    I purchased the iphone4 and tethering to replace my land line phone and the internet access that I previously paid for. I have twice tried to download updates to the iphone itself only to have the iphone lock up. I then had to go to a place with wifi with my computer to restore the iphone4 and download the update to the iphone.
    Has anyone else had this issue? I had hoped that the iphone4 could be my only source of internet access but maybe that is not possible. Page 24 of the user's manual states that the iphone with tethering allows the iphone to be the modem for your computer. This doesn't work with downloads to the iphone?

    iPhone firmware updates are not downloaded by or to the iPhone. Firmware updates are downloaded by your computer and installed on your iPhone with iTunes only.
    Tethering should allow for downloading a firmware update with iTunes on your computer and installing the update on your iPhone which is probably not possible with tethering active.

  • Can I download iOS 6 onto my iPhone 4? I'm trying but I keep getting an error msg.

    Can I download iOS 6 onto my iPhone 4? I'm trying but I keep getting an error msg.

    OK, but if you do want to try iTunes, you just hook up your iPhone to your PC or Mac like you were going to sync it, and it will tell you that there is an update for your phone when you initiate the sync.
    Otherwise, best of luck! Hope it all gets sorted out quickly!!!

  • Grainy pictures on the iPhone 4

    Hi All,
    Does anyone else face this? I took a couple of pictures using the iPhone 4, while some of them came out really well, most of the time, the images are blurry and grainy.
    I ensured that HDR mode is turned on. Frankly I don't understand what HDR mode is for.
    Could my camera be faulty?

    You are probably taking pictures with insufficient light if they appear grainy. The grainess is caused when the normal electrical "noise" in the sensor is stronger than the incoming light. If these are flash pictures remember that the range of the flash is only about 5 feet.
    The other possible cause is a dirty lens, but I assume you checked for this.
