How do I copy or sync a photo album from iPhone to iMac (copying album not camera roll)

Is there a way to copy or sync specific pictures just from a photo album from my iPhone (5s) to my iMac?
I don't want to have to select each & every one again from my camera roll when I've already taken the time to organize the photos I want to an album on my iphone.
I usually sync photos to my work PC where I know it only shows the entire camera roll.
Now I'm trying to sync to my wife's iMac, but again it would be nice to be able to select the specific album I want and not have to go through my entire (3000+ pics) camera roll

For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • How can I save a folder with pictures in it, on PC or MAC? (Not Camera Roll)

    Dear Apple Community,
    I want to save a Folder with pictures in it, that I created from the iPhone.. these photos (and videos) are available only in this folder and I don't want to loose them at all!
    Whatever, how can I save this folders on my mac? and/or PC? And I don't mean the camera roll folder! Just this folder that I created on the iPhone.
    Thanks in advance for you anwers!
    Best Regards,
    Luke

    Not supported by Apple. The only photos that can be imported from an iPhone are photos in the camera roll.

  • What will happen to the photos on my iPhone 5 if I turn off Camera Roll under Manage Storage/This Phone?

    I only have 238 mb of Cloud storage left for my phone.  When I checked what is using all of my space, I saw that 4.2GB of space is used by Camera Roll.  All of the Camera Roll pictures are in iPhoto on my Mac Book Pro and most are also archived on an external drive.  Will they disappear from my phone and/or computer if I uncheck the Camera Roll for back ups?  What happens if I do that and turn it back on a week from now?

    They will not be erased from your phone, they will only not be included in the iCould backup anymore.
    If you take many photos and videos with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you might notice that they take up most of your iCloud storage. To check the size of the backup on your device in iOS 8 or later, tap Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage. (If you're using an earlier version of iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.) Then tap the name of your iOS device. The backup size is under Photo Library.
    To reduce the size of your Photo Library backup, save your photos and videos to your computer, then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Photo Library in Backup using the steps above or purchase more storage. If there are any photos that you don't want to keep, you can delete them. Just open photos and select the item you want to delete. Then click the Trash icon and tap Delete Photo.

  • How do I delete an entire photo album from iPhone 6

    What is the easiest way to delete an entire photo album from iPhone 6

    Depends on the album and how it got there.
    If it is an album that you sync'd to the device, you would remove it the same way - by hooking up the device to sync, de-selecting the album in the Photos profile screen, and then syncing the device
    If it is an album you created, you would need to manually delete the album itself by clicking on Edit from the main display and then clicking on the minus sign to delete the album. This does not delete the photos in the album, however. If you want the photos deleted, you have to select them and then delete them manually.
    Camera Roll photos will ask if you want to delete them when you import the Camera Roll to a computer.
    Photo Stream photos are either deleted manually, or you can turn off Photo Stream altogether to remove Photo Stream from your device.
    Cheers,

  • I have an iPad 1 to which I synced my photo libraries from my laptop. Unfortunately that laptop got stolen. I now have an iPad 2 as well with a new laptop. How do I get my photo libraries from my iPad 1 to my iPad 2 and to my new laptop...?

    I assume that you haven't got a backup copy of them (?). You can copy photos that were originally synced from a computer off the iPad via third-party apps such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network - you can then sync them to your other iPad. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • I have the iPhone 4, and yesterday I synced my photos onto iTunes, but now I have albums on my phone that cannot be deleted, and there is not an option to delete the items in the albums individually... How do I get rid of these unwanted albums? Windows 7

    I have the iPhone 4, and yesterday I synced my photos onto iTunes, but now I have albums on my phone that cannot be deleted, and there is not an option to delete the items in the albums individually... How do I get rid of these unwanted albums? Using Windows 7.

    If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

  • Photos that I copy from Google no longer save to my camera roll, Why?

    I restored it twice, once from icloud backup and then from my computer back up. I just restored again and set it up as a new iphone and now my photos are saving again. I was then able to sync apps and music from my itunes to my phone... So happy you wouldn't believe!!

  • How to delete a photo album from iPhone using a new hard drive & a later version of iTunes

    I'm using the same computer but with a new hard drive and a later version of iTunes. I previously loaded a photo folder from my PC to my iPhone, but I inadvertently did it twice, giving each folder a different name -- "Photo Library," and "Widget Photo Folder." Of course, I also have the "Camera Roll" folder on my iPhone. I now want to delete either the "Photo Library" or the "Widget Photo Folder" from my iPhone. On iTunes in the Photo tab, I don't have the option of deselecting the folder in my PC that I previously synced. Apparently, iTunes recognizes that the privious sync was not done with the new hard drive? How, then, do I remove one of the photo folders from the iPhone?

    You CANNOT delete photo album.  ALL pics synced to iphone are oin photo library.  Those exact same photos, NOT duplicates, can be accessed from the individual albums.
    This is how Apple handles photos.
    Just as a song is in a playlist and in the library ( there is only one song, simply two ways to access it), photos are in the library and the same photos can be accessed from the album.

  • I have so many pictures on my photo stream and camera roll. I synced them to my computer, the ones on my photo stream. can I delete the pictures in my camera roll? and still have the pictures on my computer? or do i have to save them from icloud folder to

    Hi, i am an idiot when it comes to this. I have so many pictures on my photo stream and camera roll. i cant even take anymore pictures or even update to ios7. I synced my pictures to my PC, i think. can i know delete my camera roll or will my pictures disappear from my computer? im so confused!!

    If you delete photo stream photos from your phone they will be deleted from the my photo stream album on your PC.  Before doing that, be sure to copy or move them to a different folder on your computer.
    Deleting camera roll photos won't delete anything from your computer.  If you import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, you will get an option to delete them from your phone after they are imported.

  • How do i delete photo albums from iPhone 5

    how do i delete photo albums from iPhone 5

    Are you asking about albums created in the "Photos.app" ?
    In the Photos app, click edit, then click the red minus icon that appears.
    For albums you created on your computer and synced to your device using iTunes:
    These albums can only be deleted by syncing again with your computer and deselecting the album when syncing.
    All other albums in iPhoto are created automatic as need be (Edited, Flagged, Favorites, Custom (tags), iTunes, Beamed, Photo Box); these albums will be deleted, when the photos inside are no longer present - the edits and tags removed.

  • How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    All photos captured or saved with the iPhone are stored in the Camera Roll which cannot be changed.
    You can create an album to place photos in that are in the Camera Roll which does not duplicate the photo. It creates a pointer to the original photo stored in the Camera Roll. If the original is deleted from the Camera Roll, it will be removed from the album as well.
    Import the photos from the Camera Roll with your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. Create an album or albums for the imported photos on your computer followed by transferring the albums from your computer via the iTunes sync process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
