How do I transfer photos from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that they sync w/ my PC?

I want to take pics w/ the phone and then view them on my PC. I can't seem to get the photos and video to move from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that I can work with them on my PC. I can move pics on my PC into the photostream upload folder and those appear quicklly on my phone in the photo stream album.

How do you do that? I've tried through iPhoto and iTunes and in neither case are the images/videos from the Camera Roll accessable. Images from Photo Stream are, but not Camera Roll. And since images/videos saved from Messages end up in Camera Roll, I can't figure out how to get them either into Photo Stream or transfered to my computer.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only adds photos taken after photostream activation, it doesn't do video at all.
    To transfer photos from your camera roll taken before activation to your Mac, connect the device by USB and import your photos and videos through iPhoto.

  • How do I copy photo from camera roll to photo stream?

    I've install IOS 5 and set up iCloud.  I now have a Photo Stream album on the phone.  How do I copy a photo from Camera Roll to Photo Stream album?

    I copied some photos to the Photo Stream / Uploads folder on my PC and they did go to my iPhone.  However, they also came back to the Photo Stream / My Photo Stream folder.  So now I have two copies of the photos.  Do I have to keep two copies of each photo on every device?  That doesn't seem too smart.
    I was also trying to copy a photo into the Photo Stream album on the iPhone and, somehow, that photo did get back to my PC.  However, I have no idea how it happened?  Any help there, Apple?

  • HT4890 Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Photos taken on your device (which are saved to the camera roll) after enabling photo stream are automatically added (when connected to wifi, the camera app is closed, and you have at least 20% battery power remaining).  If you want to add earlier photos you'll have to either email them one by one to yourself, then open the email and save them back to your camera roll (which will now upload to photo stream because it is considered a new photo), or you can send them all at once using an app like PhotoSync.  With this app you can transfer them wirelessly to your computer, then delete them from your camera roll on your phone, the send them back to the camera roll from your computer (which will again cause them to be seen as new photos).  (iTunes will not transfer photos to your camera roll so you can't just import them and sync them back.)

  • HT204022 When a photo that is included in photo stream is deleted from cameraroll it should ask whether we want to delete it from photostream too, shouldn't it? How do I delete a bad photo from camera roll and photo stream? I have to delete it twice???

    80% percent of photos we take are bad photos, we delete them later when reviewing them. Now the photos are in both camerroll and photostrean. When we delete them from the camera roll they do not get deleted from photo stream, when I delete them from photo stream they do not get deleted from camera roll.
    I want to keep good photos only in both photo stream and camera roll. How do I do it? Delete them twice?? What a waste of time.
    When a photo is deleted from camera roll it should ask whether we want to delete it from photo stream too. Otherwise photo stream is useless.I remove bad photos from camera roll but they all stay in the photo stream ...

    Hi JM,
    Even 20 days later, the answer is the same.....you have to delete photos from them individually - they are kept in separate places, so you have to delete them from both if you don't want them. However, photostream will, eventually, "delete" the bad photos, since it only keeps up to 1000, and then starts overlaying the oldest ones....
    Sorry....

  • How do I get pic from camera roll to photo stream

    How I can move pic from camerea roll to photo stream for iCloud to pick up?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Only photos taken after enabling PhotoStream will be added.
    The best way is probably to do it in iPhoto when you sync your pictures, if you are really desperate to do it on the phone I guess you could take a screenshot.

  • 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

    I do not understand your question. There is no Video Roll album. There is the Camer Roll album in which all photos and videos taken by anad saved to the iPod are contained.

  • With icloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from camera roll. I run an older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. Can I transfer pics from i stream to camera roll to allow a non-icloud back up to my PPC? Precious photos are close to 30 day cut-off

    With i cloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from Camera Roll to make space knowing I would have them backed up on icloud via Photo Stream. I now find that my older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. I have an ipad3 too, which of course does. I want to copy photos from Photo Stream back to Camera Roll on the phone so that I can back up "old school" to iphoto on my ancient mac. The controls seem to suggest that as an option but when I select multiple photos in Photo Stream and select "Save to Camera Roll" the photos do not appear on Camera Roll as expected. I am running close to the 30 day limit and do not want to lose hundreds of precious photos (or have to email them to myself individually). Can the ipad3 help at all? Any ideas good people? Dan

    If only it were that easy Winston. I connect with a USB cable, iphoto opens and I can only see the photos in Camera Roll, not Photo Stream. There does not seem to be a way of aceessing other files in the phone from iphoto and, as in my initial message, I can not transfer the photos to Camera Roll on the phone. My iphone and ipad software is up to date, but my iphoto is '08 version 7.1.5 with my mac running 10.5.8 which is the best I can do on the PPC without messing everything up.  I dont have the dough for a new mac or I would have gone for that option...am I stuck?

  • How do I delete photos from camera roll but keep same photo in album

    how do I delete photos from camera roll but keep same photo in album

    You can't. The albums that you created on the iPad do not actually contain copies of the photos, but merely pointers to those photos. If you remove the photos from the camera roll, they will be removed from the iPad. Albums on the iPad are simply for your own organization on the device. Those albums cannot be imported to your computer either, since the photos do not exist in the albums.

  • HT204022 how do i delete photos from camera roll after i add them to specific folders ?

    how do i delete photos from camera roll after i add them to specific folders ?

    Camera roll is the master list of all photos in the app.  When you place a photo in an album, it's still in the camera roll.

  • HT201317 I deleted photos from camera roll as well as photo streamer. How to recover photos?

    I deleted photos from camera roll as well as photo streamer. How to recover photos?

    If the camera roll photos were on your device when you last backed it up, restoring the backup should recover them.  Deleted photo stream photos can't be recovered unless they were also in the camera roll.
