I Had the same problem with iPad and iPhone.

Go to SETTINGS--> PRIVACY and then PHOTOS; make sure iMovie is set to "on".
Should work then. (Did for me).

Can't export iMovie to camera roll on iPad Air

I can not export an iMovie to my camera roll. When I select 'save video' the box that says 'exporting video' appears but never loads
I'm using my iPad Air version 7.1.2, iMovie 2.0. I have 41GB of free space.
The 14 min movie includes video (shot on a Canon camera), photos (taken on a Canon camera) and songs (purchased on iTunes).
I've read that you need to tick iMovie in settings/privacy/photos - however iMovie does not appear as an option
iMovie is ticked in settings/privacy/location services
I have successfully exported the movie to iTunes and have saved this iMovieMobile file to my PC - this file is 3GB or so in size
The movie plays perfectly in iMovie however I want to export it to play on a PC, TV etc. Please help!
Any tips will be greatly appreciated!

How to get iPhone 4s Videos back into Camera Roll?

I need the exact same file with no compression back into camera roll. It was a video that I recorded with my iPhone 4s and accidentally deleted after backing it up to my iMac. I don't want the file to be compressed. I want the original back into Camera Roll. I am using Mountain Lion with everything updated. Even my iPhone has the most up to date iOS.
P.S. Let me make it clear that I do not want the videos to go into the videos app. I NEED it in Camera Roll. Thank you so much for your help.

The only way to do this is to restore your phone from a backup that contains the deleted video.

Importing photos into Camera Roll with wrong orientation

I have been using Olympus OI-share app to import via WIFI the photos from my camera (Oly EM10) into ipad mini retinas- saving into the Camera Roll successfully. However ever since I have upgraded the IOS (may or may not be the cause), when I import the photos, the orientation of the photos were messed up, specifically Portraits are being saved as Landscape. It used to work fine but its a consistent problem now and affects all the portraits I have recently taken. I have reinstall OI-share app and that didn't help. I have tested the same app on iphone 5S and it is working perfectly. The problem seems only to appear in my ipad mini. I am not sure if there is a settings somewhere that affects this. The problem is made worst as even after I use the ipad photo edit function to change the orientation, this does not change the orientation of the same photo in my photostream.
Anyone whom has any experience/idea about this - please help!

Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem
If you have Win 8.1 and the problem started after updating to the latest iTunes version then you seem to be out of luck since there are problem with the latest iTunes version and win 8.1

Copy photos back into camera roll in order

Hi there, hope someone can help!
I copied a bunch of photos off from 2011 into iPhoto and deleted them from my phone, however I would like to put them back in but i'd like them to go in the camera roll back at the top so they are the first photos I took rather than the bottom. I tried copying them to the DCIM folder but cannot write to that folder which is annoying!
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks

It has taken me four days trying to move photos back to my iPhone as well. I still haven't found a way. I know that the camera roll is a temporary storage tank. However, I use mostly my iPhone for editing and manipulating photos before I move them to iPhoto, sort them in folders and then sync them back.
My phone got stolen last week and the only thing I wasn't syncing to the iCloud were my photos as there were 7,800 of them. I have tried drop2roll and other apps that have been suggested by various users. Syncing folders via iTunes to the iPhone makes them read-only and does not allow deletion of photos. I really MUST have the original geo-location and date intact as I use the photos to upload to various apps and journals which require this information for appropriate entry creation.
Is there any way to do this guys or do I simply have to make the decision to sit down on my iMac, sort all these photos there first and then sync them back to my iPhone? Really frustrated here and tired of trying so many different things that haven't worked yet.

How do you move videos from video app into camera roll?

I need to use a video in a Keynote presentation. How do I move a video from the Videos app into the Camera Roll so I can access it in Keynote?

I don't think that you can do it directly on the iPad, you will need to sync it to the Photos app from your computer's iTunes i.e. if you are syncing photos from your computer then copy it into one of those photo folders, make sure that 'include videos' is ticked on the Photos tab, and re-sync (or if you have the camera connection kit then you can use, for example, an SD card and copy it via that).
If it's an iTunes purchased video then it possibly won't sync to the Photos app (I've never tried it), and whilst they can be copied via the kit they won't play in the Photos app - so they might not also play in Keynote, they may only play in the Videos app.

Export iMovie into a high definition video

When I import a video taken with Snapz Pro X, into imovie, the quality when I export it is very poor and the video is blurry. When I watch the movie full screen within iMovie - it is perfect. It is also perfect before I import it to iMovie, but I need to edit it.

I am not a Snaps Pro user, but I would make some suggestions.
1) Assuming you are using Snapz Pro to capture screen shots, check the settings. You can make quite good movies of screen shots at 12 to 15 frames per second, because there is not a lot of action on a computer screen. This creates a very compressed file size as well. However, iMovie is expecting footage from camcorders at 30 frames per second (24 at a minimum). So if you can adjust the settings, set it to 30 frames per second. (25 fps if you live in a PAL country.)
2) Also make sure the resolution is set to 1920x1080 .
3) If you have a choice of codecs in Snapz Pro, use h.264.

No Audio Tracks When Exporting iMovie into GB

In iMovie, there are three soundtracks -- the video, the voiceover, the music.
I would think that when I export to garageband, I would have the same three tracks.
My plan is to bring it up in Garageband, and then open that with Logic Pro so I can mix the three tracks using my M-Audio Project Mix Board.
But, when I open the file in either GB or Logic, there is only the soundtrack with the video.
I'm correcting permissions as I type. Any other suggestions?
Thanks.

I would think that when I export to garageband, I would have the same three tracks.
What makes you think that? Did you find it in some manual? I would suppose that iMovie exports a combined stereo track.

I need to transfer a mac iMovie video to the camera roll of my iPad, is this possible?

I have a MacBook Pro with iMovie, an iPad 3 and a PC. I took video on the iPad, created a movie on the Mac with iMovie and now I want to save that movie back to the camera roll in the iPad so I can transfer it to the PC and share it with others on PC. Is this possible? How else could I get this video on my PC?
I can not email the file it is too large.
I am at the office an unable to connect iPad or MacBook to wifi for any cloud sharing.
Thanks,
Mike

When I first read the question I thought, "How can (s)he not know how to do that?" But before I answered with what I thought would be obvious, I looked at iMovie on my iPad and realized it's not so clear. So here it is.
Go out to the home screen and select Projects at the top of the screen,
Tap on the project you want to export to the Camera Roll,
Select the icon in the middle which looks like a box with an arrow pointing up [^],
Save Movie is your next selection,
Choose which resolution you want to save the movie in,
You can now find it in your Camera Roll.
I'm very glad you asked actually because I tried exporting a movie I shot in 1080p in the lowest resolution, 320p, and it still looks great--I mean like YouTube great, not Vimeo great.

Exif data gets stripped exporting to camera roll

I import pics from camera roll to edit in PST. I then export back to camera roll so tha I can use another picture management app to sort my edited pics into files. However the original exif data seems to get stripped out, especially the original date an time the original photo was taken. Apps like Photogene and Filterstorm do no do this. Is there a way of stopping this happening ? Or is it a bug ..... Why can the original exif data not be left intact ?

Sounds daft as it would probably be easier for the app to eave the exif data intact rather than deliberately alter it !
I hope adobe can put his right as preserving the original date and time of a photo is crucial for some photographers. This kinda prevents me from using PST as it is very important for me, and I no need to resort back to using Photogene.

IMoviemobile export to Camera Roll will not play with quicktime on PC (video plays but with black screen, audio ok)

Videos created in iMovie on the new ipad will not play on PC with Quicktime after being exported to the Camera Roll and copied to the PC. Movie will play but with a black screen only. Audio ok. Was able to do before ios 6 but not now.

I'm having the same problem. All of the movies I export out of iMovie since upgrading to the latest version show up with no video, only audio, in Quicktime. Ironically the video place just fine in Windows Media Player and also in iTunes.

Hello Ozzie94,
Thanks for the additional information. The camera roll is designed for photos taken on your device, or saved images from Mail and other applications. Photos synced from a computer are organized into their own album(s):

How can I manually set the Camera Roll to start at an arbitrary image number, i.e., IMG_0553.JPG?

I have an iPhone 4s, currently with iOS 5.1. I use it with my desktop computer which runs Windows Vista (and has the latest iTunes installed 10.6), and my laptop, which has Windows 7 and the latest iTunes. I use iCloud and Photo Stream primarily with the desktop computer.
Since receiving the iPhone on launch day, (Nov...14?, 2011), I've had to "Set [it] up as new" twice, most recently this morning.
After setting it up as new, the Camera Roll starts over with pictures at IMG_0001.JPG. That means, that, after my first picture after this latest reset, I'll have three pictures all initially named IMG_0001.JPG, and instead, I'll have IMG_0001.JPG, IMG_0001 (1).JPG, and IMG_0001 (3).JPG in my photo library. This robs me of the ability view my photos sorted by name, which is often the default sort order in my photo folders, and still see them chronologically. I can, of course, sort them by Date Created, but it would be more flexible if I could do either one.
Therefore, I'd like to set Camera Roll to start numbering its photos starting with whatever the next number higher than all the rest in my library would be, in this case, IMG_0553.JPG.
I can't just use Windows to go into the iPhone's Camera Roll and rename the first photo I take to be IMG_0533.JPG. The iPhone just doesn't allow tampering with the filename that way. Can I even count on Camera Roll to note the presence of the highest numbered file in its folder and then just name the next picture taken the next higher number?
Since I have no reason to believe that I won't have to reset the phone again, I'd like for whatever method I find to be one that I can use to set the Camera Roll to start at whatever other number I need when the time comes.
Suggestions welcome...
I have an idea that I'm about to try...I'll report back if it succeeds...
UPDATE: So what I tried to do was, with an empty Camera Roll, I uploaded a picture with the filename and number that I wanted (IMG_0533.JPG) into my Photo Stream, then saved that picture to my Camera Roll, hoping it would retain the file name, and then Camera Roll would just use the next number. That didn't work. It saved into Camera Roll as a brand spanking new IMG_0001.JPG.

To bring the solution into this thread, here are the consolidated solution bits from the other thread:
I installed i-Funbox and found the file referenced in that other thread ( iPHone / Raw File System / PhotoData / MISC / DCIM_APPLE.plist ).
That file has a section that I'm replicating below that is the part that that original poster edited, and is the part that needs to be edited for my problem also:
<key>DCIMLastFileNumber</key>
<integer>5</integer>
That other thread's original poster wanted his photos to start with 0001, so he set his "DCIMLastFileNumber" to 0.
I wanted my next picture to be IMG_0553.JPG, so I edited my file's 5 to 552.
I did that editing by first copying the file to my laptop (using the Copy To PC command), then opening it up in a text editor. I did the edit, then saved it.
After that, I used i-Funbox' "Copy From PC" command to copy the edited file back to the same location, hoping that the program would take care of any permissions, etc.
I had to do the Copy From PC twice.
On the first try, it seemed to copy just fine, but, for whatever reason, the copied file was empty when I opened it for verification. But I tried again, and that seemed to work (opened for verification, and it was as expected).
I then unplugged it, copied a picture from the Photo Stream to the Camera Roll, then plugged it into my laptop to verify the filename. It was exactly as I wanted: IMG_0533.JPG. Then, for fuller verification, I unplugged it, took a new picture, then replugged it in, and confirmed that the next pictures (I had HDR on) were IMG_0534.JPG and IMG_0535.JPG.
...and that's where I am. Nothing has crashed yet, too, which is all to the good ('course, I haven't done anything else with the phone yet).
Fingers crossed!

Help with importing Camera Roll to iPhoto issue?

Hi
I have a bunch of images on my iPhone (3GS, 5.0) saved from a phone 'wallpaper' app into Camera Roll.
Normally, as soon as I attach my iPhone to my MacPro, iPhoto '11 automatically launches and imports anything which is in Camera Roll.
This is suddenly not happening and I don't understand why (my software is up to date and I can't find anything relevant online).
Any ideas?
Many thanks
