FYI. IOS 5.1 photo location tip

Hey,
Just discovered that after the IOS 5.1 update my iPhone 4s no longer attached a GPS location to any photos taken. The fix is simple. You have to start the carmera app from the home screen icon to get it to ask you to use locations in photos. The lock screen short cut doesn't ask. I have been using that only to access the camera. I dod a clean restore as a new phone when I upgraded because I was having huge battery dran after the Delta update. Battery life is very much better.
So remember, if you do a restore as new phone, acces the camera app at least once from the home screen to be su

if you have nothing useful to add, why bother? I'm trying to find a solution to a problem that I KNOW many, many other people are experiencing...
I don't really care much if Apple reads this, I'm just trying to find a solution. Geez.
If you genuinely were just looking for other users help to fix a problem, and weren't expecting Apple to read or respond you wouldn't have titleled this thread as you did.  You wouldn't have said: "I can't imagine this hasn't been noticed by Apple, but the lack of updates and some sort of status to their customers is incredibly irritating. When will this be fixed?" It is YOU who are trolling by deliberately posting inflamatory and misleading statements.
The probolem is clearly in YOUR DEVICE.  Maybe there is a a hardware issue.  However, the other 99.999+% don't have the issue - and we're not bilind, oblivious idiots either.

  • 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.

    Your are welcome. Glad you got that sorted out. If you want to know about the new features in iOS 7, you can download the user manual here,http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf, you can open it in your iBooks as well.

  • IOS 8 - deleted photos not showing in Recently Deleted album

    Updated iPhone 5 to iOS 8, noticed that the Camera Roll has disappeared, extremely anoying, and you are not able to see all the photos on the phone, instead only the recently added. Did some research and found that they are all in the photos. Also, found that when deleting a photo it first goes to the Recently Deleted album.
    Tried it out by deleting some photos, however, no photos show in the Recently Deleted album. Asked the Apple store staff and they do not know either why it is not showing in the Recently Deleted album.
    Anyone has an idea as to why and how to fix?

    Hi tech.smart79,
    Thanks for you reply.
    As a matter of fact I did do a backup on my computer via iTunes, then did the update to iOS 8 via iTunes and had to restore the phone from that backup, which was also done via iTunes.
    All photos are on the Photos, located at the bottom right in the Albums.

  • Edited photos in iOS show original photo after import or in iPhoto for MAC

    If I edit a photo using the Photos app (or one the filter integrated now with Photos app) and then import that photo to my Mac (both using iphoto or import) or PC (both using import or with cloud photo integration), and sometimes if i try to view the photo using another iOS app, the photo display the original, unedited version.
    the only way seems to duplicate the picture or to send it by mail.
    but when you have hundreds of pics, that is not a solution any more..
    and most of all i don't even want to import both the original and the edited version.
    i found this issue in an apple support page: below the link..
    but that page doesn't offer a solution one most of all it says that iphoto shouldn't have the issue...
    can you help me?
    thanks
    iOS: Edited photos show original photo after import or in other apps

    i verified..
    well, unfortunately these solutions are both not optimal..
    Shared Album:
    - you lose all the other informations (like location, date, etc..)
    - you lose quality
    - but at least is fast
    Sent by mail:
    - it keep full resolution
    - you still lose all other informations..
    - it is ok for a picture but not good for several..

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
    http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod),  however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

    Hello Simmo1997,
    Sorry to hear about your issue but let’s see if we can get your iPhone back up in running. If your iPhone is disconnecting when trying to restore then check out the article below to get you started with isolating the issue. Let me know if it gets resolved or if you discover a new symptom.

  • My photos are not displaying after upgrade to iOS 7, My photos are not displaying after upgrade to iOS 7

    On our ipad 2, after upgrading to iOS 7, the photo album is completely screwed, and the saved photos are not displaying correctly. How do we get our photos Back?

    OK, tried the reset and it seems to have cleared up some problems; however, the picture problem remains.
    Maybe there is something further we could do in settings? My wife uses the iPad as her constant companion and likes to take screen shots (pictures) of recipes and such. She keeps them in albums. Before the update to iOS 7 they all displayed correctly regardless of physical machine orientation. Now, post update, when in landscape mode, which she uses 99.9% of the time, her pics do do fully display. By physically rotating the machine, they will appear correctly. We have noticed that there is a new "function" in edit pics for "aspect ratio."
    Should we be using this? If so, she'll have to edit a very large number of pics. So I'm wondering if we're missing some new setting. BTW- this display problem also occurs with pics taken with the camera as well.

  • How do you eject your iOS device from photos?  Right clicking does not bring up the menu.

    I noticed there is no intuitive way to eject the iOS device from Photos.  No up arrow, and right clicking does not bring up an eject option.  I do not want to enlarge the "other" space of my iOS device by not ejecting it properly.

    I too have noticed this.  Yesterday after downloading photos from my iPhone 5s to Mac Photos for the first time since iOS and OSX updates on the weekend.  I do not have the option to sync this phone to iTunes when connected ticked so only Photos opens.  After download I wanted to eject the phone but noted no eject arrow in Photos, I went to a new Finder window and was surprised to see the phone was not listed under Devices so I had to launch iTunes and allow a sync to complete before I could eject.  This is plainly not right, the industry and Apple themselves tell us constantly that we must "Eject" before removal of a USB device.  If not one usually gets a dialogue box to say the device was not properly ejected.

  • Where are my photos located if I use LR CC.  What is stored in the Cloud?

    Where are my photos located if I use LR CC.  What is stored in the Cloud?

    With the desktop version of Lightroom CC, nothing is stored in the cloud, nothing can be accessed directly by Lightroom in the cloud, and the Lightroom CC program is installed locally on your computer. The creative cloud is used as a delivery system to provide you with updates and to validate that you are keeping your creative cloud account current. If you decide to do so, you can create collections of your images and share them in the cloud. And if you have a supported mobile device you can install Lightroom Mobile on that device and work on those images that have been shared in the cloud. But basic operation of Lightroom CC is no different than it has ever been.

  • IOS 5 sorts photos randomly. How do I get back to viewing them in chronological order?

    iOS 5 sorts photos randomly. How do I get back to viewing them in chronological order?

    Option 1
    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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Why the ios 7' s photos' s filters don't save on my computer ?

    Hello everyone,
    I have installed 7 on an iPhone ios 5. When I take pictures with a filter, the filter is not saved when transferring on my pc.
    Is this normal? How to settle this problem?

    Hey everyone.
    This seems to be an intentional design choice by Apple.
    The photos in ios7 are "lossless" which means the filters are applied distinctly from the raw image file. When that image is shared, sometimes that filter disappears based on what device / os / program is viewing it. I am thinking of the filter as a "tag" that is interpreted (or not) by the viewing program / device. For instance, syncing to iPhoto loses the iOS7 filter. Emailing it to myself retains the filter as a flat picture and loses the original. Posting to Google+ loses the filter and I can reapply a Google+ filter, etc.
    http://www.cultofmac.com/231726/ios-7s-new-photo-filters-are-lossless-keeping-or iginal-photo-untouched/
    I understand the "lossless" rationale, but don't agree with it.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4995 The last i-Phone update, iOS 5.1.1 / location services issue

    All, with my i-Phone update to iOS 5.1.1, "location services" now comes on when I'm in the "messaging" or "settings" app with no way to turn off individually.  Don't know why Apple decided to do that.  Anyone know how to turn location services off for these two apps?  Appreciate the help.

    eek!
    I just did an update from 6.1 to 6.1.1 First it failed twice, so I turned the phone off, then turned the phone back on. And now I get only the picture of the phone wanting to be plugged into itunes. what the heck!
    I haven't plugged into itunes in millenia anyways, its all icloud. What happened to recovering from icloud? Why is the phone in recovery mode?
    First update ever to fail me. Seems they rushed it.
