How can I organize my photos?

I have a pc and I want to know how I can organize my photos on my iPhone 4. Is it even possible to organize it?

Photos are not organized on the iPhone, that is done on the computer and then synced through iTunes back to the iPhone. You can arrange pictures into folders if you want, and then sync the folders you select in iTunes. You cannot, however, go folder into folder. The iPhone will not handle that grouping.

  • How can I organize my photos in icloud by album as on my Mac? And, not just Collections/Events/Year?

    How can I organize my photos in icloud by album as they are on my Mac in iphoto? I want to see more than just a sort by Collection/Event/year.

    You'll need to wait for all these things to come out to beta testing for that kind if detailed help. But at the moment it seems that you make the Albums in your  Photos.app on the Mac or iOS device and these then turn up on the Library in the Cloud. I can see no way to create albums in a web browser, and iPhoto doesn't communicate with the Library.

  • How can i organize my photo albumbs(not greyed out)

    So i was trying to organize some photos of mine from the computer and the internet.
    I created folders in my pc and made my ipad synced with them as albums(folder names=albums).
    Then i downloaded an image from the internet in my ipad and i wanted to move it to the correct album instead of cameral roll.
    To my surprise i couldnt move it to the albumbs i send through my pc because they were greyed out, so i made a new folder with the same name as that folder i had in my pc and transferred the image there along with all the other images from the pc album.
    So now in order to avoid having 2 albums for the same thing i removed the that folder from my pc and synced with ipad. I also deleted the downloaded image from camera roll because i didnt need it to be there and only wanted it to be in my new album.
    Then to my surprise after syncing and deleting that image all the photos in the new album have dissapeared which means the image was never transfered, it was just linked there and if the original is gone then it is removed.
    My question is.
    Is there any way to organize my photos in albums, albums that you can move images to from camera roll and arent greyd out when you are trying to add an image to them. And also to move images in those albums without having to keep a copy of them in camera roll??
    Having to update your pc folders everytime you download something from ipad is a pain.

    Albums that you sync from your computer can't be deleted or amended directly on your iPad - you can only add photos to them, or remove photos, by adding/removing them on the folder on your computer and resyncing.
    And when you create an album in the Photos app on your iPad and 'copy' a photo into it you are only creating a pointer to the photo, you're not creating a separate copy of the photo - so if you then delete the original photo from your iPad you will also be deleting all pointers to it and therefore remove it from any albums that you've 'copied' it into.
    There are third-party photo management apps such as Photo Manager Pro which you could use instead - you can copy photos to that app from your computer, and to/from the Photos app, and you can delete photos (including those copied from a computer) directly in it. So you could use an app such as that for your albums.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • How can I move a photo from one project to another

    How can I move a photo from one project to another without creating a duplicate so I have the same photo in two projects.
    I seems to me in the past when I moved the photo from project 1 to project 2, I would get a number showing the # of photos being moved and you could drag and drop in the 2nd folder and the photos would disappear from project 1 and show up in project 2. is there a setting I am missing.  Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    Any suggestion?

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:

  • How can I attach a photo to an email,using Photoshop Elements9,without going through the Revel cloud

    How can I attach a photo to an email using Photoshop Elements 9, without going through the Adobe Revel cloud?

    Adobe user wrote:
    I'm using Windows 7.  I have no email clients.
    You don't need an Email client nor Adobe Revel account to send email and photos as attachment.  All you need is an email account (could be free web-based account such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, AOL or whatever including from your own ISP.  And of course an Internet Connection.
    Now the most obvious requirement is out of the way so you need to go in to your Organizer and click on Share button and choose Photomail. Select the photo you want to send and follow the instructions that are on your screen.
    You also need to request an Adobe Verification Code to enable you to use Adobe's Mail Servers to send the photos for you.  To do this go to:
    Edit >> Preferences>> Sharing
    Look for something like this and fill out the red boxes where indicated (click on this image to see it clearly).
    Hope this gets you started.

  • How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

    How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

    If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
    The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera.  You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
    If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything.

  • How can I remove all photos from my iphone?

    How can I remove all photos from my iphone?

    Hi pjdemeo,
    I understand you want to delete all of the photos from your iPhone.  As a precaution, I would suggest importing the photos and videos from your iPhone into your computer.  This will give you a backup for the images, and after import you will be asked if you want to delete the photos.
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201302
    The iPhone User Guide has instructions for deleting photos directly from the device:
    Organize photos and videos - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphf14943e
    Delete a photo or video from Photos. Tap the Photos tab, tap the photo or video, tap , then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. Deleted photos and videos are kept in the Recently Deleted album on iPhone, with a badge showing the remaining days until the item is permanently removed from iPhone. To delete the photo or video permanently before the days expire, tap the item, tap Delete, then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. If you use iCloud Photo Library beta, deleted photos and videos are permanently removed from all iOS 8.1 devices that use iCloud Photo Library beta with the same Apple ID.
    Cheers,

  • I added a photo from camera roll to a created album,how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep photo in album

    I added a photo from camera roll to a created album, how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep same photo in album?

    You can't. It doesn't work that way.
    the new album that you created doesn't contain a copy of the actual photo. It contains a pointer to that photo. If you delete it from the camera roll, you will delete it from the album that you created as well. Albums that you create on the iPad in the Photos app are for local organization only and cannot be transfer or imported to your computer, because there really are no photos in those albums

    As you have been told, you do not organize photos with iTunes, and the photos are really not handled by iTunes, it is just a helper. You would organize the photos on the computer like you would any files. Just remember, when you select folders in iTunes to sync, iTunes will only sync down one level, in other words, don't create folders within folders. After creating folders with names you want, put the photos in the folders and then sync to the phone. In the Photos tab, just select the individual folders you want. You do not have to sync all folders and all of the thousands that you have on the computer, only the selected ones you want. Just remember that saving photos in the camera roll, or now the recently added, is just inviting problems. That area is very much like volatile memory on the computer. If something happens to the phone and you have to reset, if you do not have those photos imported to the computer or are just relying on the iPhone backup, you could find yourself without photos at all. Import them and then sync back. That way the backup of the photos is the computer folder.

  • HT201210 Trying to restore a new iphone 4 to files from an iphone 3, however, the restore says it can't complete because there isn't enough space.  I would like to delete photos and music files.  How can I delete these photos?

    After doing the initial restore function, I'm trying to delete phots from the system.  The itures instructions says to click the photos button the unselect photos or albums, but see no photos button.  How can I delete the photos to gain some storage space?

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • All I want to know is: HOW CAN I IMPORT A PHOTO FROM MY MAC DESK TOP?

    I am sorry to be so ignorant, but I am not sure of WHERE to "post" this question:All I want to know is: HOW CAN I IMPORT A PHOTO FROM MY MAC DESK TOP?

    Do you mean you want to import a photo to the organizer? It's easier if you put the photo where you want to keep it before importing, but just go to File>Get Photos>From Files and Folders and import it. If you move it after importing you  must move it in folder view in the origanizer.
    If you just want to edit the photo, there's no need to import it. Just go to File>Open in the editor.
