How do I transfer photos from macbook air to iphone 4s?

I have a macbook air (mid-2012) with have the new itunes version (11.0.1), and can't figure out how to transfer photos from macbook to iphone. There is no "Photo" tab in itunes in this version, and it doesn't appear in the pulldown choices. Help!

Connect your iDevice.
It should show in the left hand sidebar or in a button to the right of the iStore button
You should see the summary page for your device with other buttons for Music Apps etc
Click on the Photos
Check the box to enable syncing of photos.
Then either select all or choose selected playlists

How do I download my music and photos from existing iPad to new iphone

How do I download music and photos from existing iPad to new iphone

Perform a backup to iTunes from the old device and then a restore to the new device, use ITunes to do this. BTW, always sync photos to a computer to store them safely (use iPhoto on a mac or to a designated folder on a PC). Never trust an iOS device to keep photos without having them synced to a computer.

Help transferring photos from iPhone to macbook

when i switched from the 4s to 5s i transferred all of the pictures from the 4s onto a windows laptop, then transferred the pictures from the laptop onto the 5s. now my 5s is almost out of storage, and i was wondering if it was possible to transfer the old pictures onto my macbook and then delete that album from the phone. also the album of pictures from the computer doesn't have the delete option when you go to edit albums.

If you still have the windows laptop your best option is to get the photos from there. If the only copies of the 4s photos that you have are now on the 5s (placed there by using iTunes to sync from the Windows computer) then you will either need to email them to yourself or use 3rd party software such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php to salvage them from the 5s.
Once you have safely recovered the 4s photos that were transferred to the 5s via iTunes sync, you can remove them from the 5s by syncing with iTunes using the following instructions from iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support . Note that if the original computer isn't available you may first need to sync a few new photos from your current computer using iTunes and then sync again to delete them using the following instructions.
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.

Transfering photos from old laptop to new with different versions of PS elmnts

We have PS Elements 4 on an old lap top, running Windows Vista, which is beginning to fail.
Have just purchased new lap top running Windows 8 which will not accept PS Elements 4 as it is incompatible, but it has partially loaded.
Shop says they transfered photos across from one to the other but cannot find any of the tags for 7000 plus photos.
Am intending to buy PS Elements 12. but being 70 plus am not computer savvy.
Is there a step by step idiots guide on how to get said 7000 plus photos, complete with all the tags on them, from old LT to new LT at the same time converting them from PSE4 to PSE 12.

Migration troubles for iPhoto Library from MacBook Air to new iMac

I am having difficulties with migration of my iPhoto Library via the TimeMachine BackUp of my MacBook Air to my new iMac (Lion).
Since the MBA has no firewire port, the only way to migrate content is by way of a back-up hard drive (using WiFi for 245 GB would take days).
I used TimeMachine BackUp with USB port & that took about 2 hours, as expected. iTunes came through without any trouble, but the iPhoto app on my iMac remains new & empty. However, from checking "about this Mac" in my iMac, I know that the pictures are IN my iMac SOMEWHERE: the # of GB's of pictures (138 GB) apparently transferred, matches the size my iPhoto Library on my MBA. But where are they & how can I put them in the iPhoto Library?
Somehow I ended up with 2 users, but I can't find the Library in either one's applications.

With newer Macs you won't need a crossover ethernet cable as the Macs can detect the situation and adjust to it.
Apple products that require an Ethernet crossover cable. This will tell you if you'll need a crossover cable or not.

Transferring photos from MacBook Pro to a SD Card

Hello, New chap on the block and a complete ignoramus!
I have just moved from a windows 7 based laptop to Macbook Pro with OSxLion.
I am slowly learning, howevr I have two problems that I cannot seem to resolve.
1: I put my 2gb brand new SD Card in the slot and up it comes as a crd icon with the label No Name.
I try and transfer photos from my MacBook to the card so that I may take them to the shop and put the card in thier machine and print them off.
No Joy! I cannot drag or paste anything to the card!
I have been to disc utilities to format to what I do not know but anyway the only thing I can do is verify, everything else is grayed out.
Please can anyone advise?
2: I did manage to transfer some of my photos to a USB stick, but when I went to the shop and put said USB into the machine the stick was not recognized!
So, there are my two questions, any advice would be gratefully received. Thank you for reading this. Mike T

Is the Lock slider on your SD card in the locked position?
Is your flash drive formatted FAT32 or NTFS? It probably has to be to work in the store's reader.

Transferring Photos from MacBook Pro to iMac G5

I have been importing all my photos from my digital SLR to my Macbook Pro. But... now I am out of HD space. I want to transfer all my pics to my iMac G5 with much more HD space. What is the most effective way to do this? If I burn all the pictures to DVD, then import them to my desktop, will it import the original and edited versions of the photo?
Next... should I transfer the photos before or after I upgrade to iLife '08???
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks!

I assume you've been using iPhoto?
Simply copy the iPhoto Library Folder from your Pictures Folder to the same location on the iMac. Then, to prevent any file permission issues, Download BatchMod from
http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:

(Credit to Old Toad for this one).
And, yes, do it before upgrading. One less variable to deal with.

TS3989 how do i get photos from icloud onto my new iphone

I just had my iphone 4 replaced through warranty, and I would like to get my photos from icloud backup onto my new phone. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Are these photos part of a backup or are they in photostream.

I don't want to restore photos from icloud onto my new iphone

Hi there,
I had an iPhone 4 and just got a new 5c. I backed up my 4 to icloud as i dont't own a laptop. I bought 20GB of storage and everything seemed to work. When I set up new iPhone i selected 'Restore from iCloud Back up' as I need old contacts on this new phone HOWEVER, I do not want all photos on new phone as I donot have enough space and they will fill up my memory. They are already in my iCloud so I shouldn't need them on new phone. I didn't see any option to just restore data rather than media and so photo stream is downloading constantly but wont finish as there is not enough space on phone. How can I just restore contacts to new phone and not pictures? My other option could be to set up as new iphone, but if I do this can I then download the contacts from my icloud seperately?
Going slowly insane.

You can't restore only part of the backup. Only camera roll photos are stored in the backup and they will have to be restored as part of restoring the entire backup. Photo stream photos are not stored in the backup; photo stream photos from the last 30 days will stream to your new phone when it signs into your iCloud account. You can stop this by turning off my photo stream in Settings>iCloud>Photos.
The other thing you should be aware of is that you can't have photos in iCloud that are not also on your phone. If you delete them from your phone, they will be deleted from iCloud.

Help transferring everything from old 3gs to new 4s

My girlfriend has just got a new 4s to replace her old 3gs. Unfortunately, the (windows) desktop we used to sync the 3gs has recently pretty much died. Is there any way to get all the data from the old phone to the new one easily? I've got a macbook I can use to sync the new phone, but not sure I can get everything off the old phone this way...
If I lose the music that's not too much of a problem, but don't want to lose contacts, texts, apps, saves, settings etc.
Thanks

You've got your work cut out for you, but here's what you need to do. First create a separate login on your computer for your GF. Then do the following...DO NOT UPDATE the software on the 3GS or connect the 4S until you've first done the following:
By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from her phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are replacing your GF's computer, her phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to her phone or music ripped on her own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from her phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in itunes(under the edit menu if using Windows).
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
Now that you've done the above, you can connect the 4S & follow these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109
You should be good to go.
