How do I permanently save my photos from my iPhone 5 to free up storage on the phone

I want to permanently save my photos from my I phone 5. How do I do that so I can delete them off my phone to free up storage?

You can transfer them to a computer as described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Another option is a 3rd party service such as Flickr
Apple has announced that iOS 8 will have an improvement that will also help: https://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/photos/

    How do you email photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?

    Eric, thanks for the info about the pictures, it worked.   The mail icon is not the one that came with the mac(it looks like a stamp with an eagle) this appears at a notepad with a ruler,paintbrush and pencil.  I can not open it, I did not download it and now I can not turn off the computer with shutdown I have to manually turn if off by pressing the power button.   This can not be normal.  Any suggestions.  thanks,  Ellen

  • How do I recover a deleted photo from my iphone

    how do I recover a deleted photo from my iphone?

    The iPhone Photo Recovery allows you to recover data by two ways: Recover from iOS devices and recover from iTunes backup. No matter which way you choose, the first step is to download and install the software on your computer. Then follow the way below to get back your data.
    Part 1: Directly recover photo from iPhone 5/4S, iPad mini, iPad with Retina display, The New iPad, iPad 2 & iPod touch 5
    article: How to recover deleted photos from iPhone.
    Part 2: Recover Data Directly from iPhone 4/3GS, iPad 1 & iPod touch 4
    Part 3: Extract iTunes Backup to Recover Previous Data for All iOS Devices
    This data recovery mode lets you recover not only existing data in the backup, but also those data deleted from your device before you made the backup, as long as they were not overwritten.
    Note: Don't sync your device with iTunes when you realize that you've lost data, or the iTunes backup file will be updated after the sync, if you want to recover them through this recovery mode.

  • Can I save my photos from my iPhone to iCloud/iTunes, and then delete them from my iPhone to  free up space on my iPhone?I would  still like to keep them somewhere where they can  be accessed.

    One option is to turn on iCloud Photo Library on the phone and go to Settings > iCloud > Photos and turn on "Optimize iPhone Storage." Then you don't delete the photo from the phone but it does occupy significantly less space. More information in iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support

    If Windows - and it has iTunes installed - you should see an Autoplay explorer when you connect your iPhone - this should let you see the pictures and transfer them back to your computer
    Wrong. That only works for pictures in the Camera Roll, not those in the Photo Album app.

  • My iTunes library has been replaced with my husband's iTunes library on our iMac. How do I get my iTunes library from my iPhone back onto my iTunes library on the iMac?

    My iTunes library has been replaced with my husband's iTunes library on our iMac. How do I get my iTunes library from my iPhone back onto my iTunes library on the iMac?  Help!!!

    Well, this is a problem, because the only material you can transfer from your iPhone (using only Apple software) is material you purchased in the iTunes Store.
    To do that, plug your iPhone into iTunes, then choose File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from iTunes' menu.
    Generally speaking, you should restore your iTunes library from your computer's backup.

  • Is it possible to delete the original photos from my iphone if i have uploaded them into the icloud?

    Is it possible to delete the original photos from my iphone if i have uploaded them into the icloud?
    Or are they then completely lost?

    Yes.  iTunes will report that your photos are now being accessed from iCloud Photo Library and will no longer sync photo and videos from your computer.  If you have a Mac, you'll want to avoid enabling it until OS X Yosemite in introduced along with it's built-in photo app, which will have to ability to access iCloud Photo Library.  (Note: the Photos app may not be introduced concurrently with Yosemite, but is supposed to follow "early next year".)

  • How do I transfer contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 (version 7.1.2) to my computer (Windows 8.1)?

    How do I transfer, move, back up, upload or whatever the correct terminology is, my contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 to my Windows computer?

    You can transfer photos in several different ways:
    via USB cord: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    via Photo Stream: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    via a number of 3rd party apps such as http://www.photosync-app.com
    You can transfer contacts via:
    iCloud: https://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    iTunes sync: iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    and there may also be 3rd party apps.
    Note that you can also backup to iCloud or to a computer, but that is only designed to be used for a restore back to the phone and you won't see usable photos or contacts on the computer.

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my iPad

    HHow do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my ipad

    You cannot directly transfer anything from an iPhone to an iPad. If your iPad is signed onto the same Apple ID as your iPhone in Settings>iTunes & App Store, then it has access to the same Music library as your phone. Click on the More tab in the iTunes App on your iPad, and then on Purchased, Not on this iPad to see all of the music available to download to the iPad. You can also set the "Automatic Downloads" option to ON in Settings>iTunes & App Store and going forward, any music you purchase on the iPhone or via iTunes on a computer will automatically download to your iPad. Set the same setting on the iPhone to have it do the same.
    As for photos. If both the iPhone and iPad are signed onto the same iCloud ID in Settings>iCloud, then turn on Photo Stream on both the iPad and iPhone to share Photo Stream photos between the two devices. Photos on your Camera Roll that are no longer on Photo Stream, or photos in other Photo Albums would have to be sync'd to the iPad via iTunes on the computer you sync with (assuming you have imported your photos to that computer).
    Cheers,
