How to add photo from Photos app as iCloud/user avatar?

Hello,
I would like to change my login and iCloud user avatar. I have photos in the new Photos app, but I can't import or drag&drop files on the settings screen from Photos.
"Take a photo with your iOS device or manually add photos from the Photos app." - I would like to do that, but how?
Thank you!

How to add notes from mail.app to dock?

Hi guys,
Is it possible to add a shortcut to the Notes feature of mail.app to the dock? I'm using Lion.
Basically I'd like to use the Notes feature of mail.app instead of Stickies (stickies won't sync with my iPhone over iCloud, but Notes will).
Thanks for your help!
Ben

Jason,
If the account is IMAP, then the Inbox (and Sent) reside on the server. You should only need to remove the account, and set it up again. Any copies of messages from an IMAP account are only meant to be temporary, and useful for Offline Viewing. Backing up the cached copies of IMAP messages may not be a great idea, some times, if messages get removed from the cache, and then you resync with the server.
More info, please.

How risk is to add photos from 'Photo Stream'-

How risk is to add photos from ‘Photo Stream’ direct to an album on iPad without ‘save to camera roll’ first?… sometimes it works sometimes not. I’m confused.

I got it… Select all photos from an album, then ‘share’ to iCloud… create a ‘Stream Name’ and email me… Is this the best way? I think it’s great… I didn’t get about the iTunes sync, I’m afraid, I already lost photos in that way…
thanks

HT201272 Cannot download previously deleted app iphoto. Other deleted apps re install exactly as manual says. Also, how can I delete unwanted photos from "photos" app, which were brought in via Dropbox? Ipad Air wi fi running ios 7 (my first apple product

New to Apple, having fun with ipad Air, but geting frustrated with its weird ways.
Deleted the iphoto app to clear out photos (yes, really). Now cannot download it again. Other deleted apps download exactly as the manual says but not iphoto. Can anyone suggest how to fix please? Also, cannot delete test photos from"photos" app, brought in from Dropbox. Can anyone tell me how to do this please?
All help gratefully received.

You should be able to redownload it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPad - if it's not showing there (you haven't changed countries since buying the app ?) then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
For the photos, if they are in the Camera Roll album in the Photos app then you can either delete them via the trashcan icon in the bottom right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the Select button top right in thumbnail view.

How do i move photos from photo library to camera roll

how do i move photos from photo library to camera roll on ipod touch 4th generation

I also had a similar problem with "photo library" and wondered how to do about copying my photos there to my computer. I was delighted when i succeeded moving my photos from my iphone4s "Photo library" to my "camera roll".
I could do it using 3 apps: 1) fileExplorer 2) fileapp 3) dropbox
Downloading these apps on my iphone devide and then Using 1) I was able to see my albums in "photolibrary" and open it in either 2) or 3). Opening it up in 2) fileapp, will give you the option to save in "camera roll" with the top right hand corner button.
After saving it in camera roll, I will be able to easily copy them out from camera roll from DCIM folder onto your computer.
I am not a comp savvy person, and I managed.

How do I transfer photos from photo gallery TO MY iPad

How do I transfer photos from photo gallery TO MY iPad

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

To transfer your photos:
Transfer and erase the Camera Roll:
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture.
Select your iPad in the Devices list and click "Import all".
When the import finishes, you can erase the contents of the Camera Roll, if you want. That would be the quickest way, but deleting it on the iPad in the Photos.app would be safer, but more work.
Delete photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
Delete the Photo Stream contents:
How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?
You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, and tap the trash can icon or click Delete. On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, and then select delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices. Learn more about deleting photos.

How do i avoid from photos getting deleted that were stored in iCloud photo library when i delete them from my iphone?

You can't delete it from your purchased list, as that is permanently maintained by the iTunes store. You can, however, prevent it from appearing in your song list by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turning off Music under Show All.

Transfer Photos from Photos App

How can I transfer photos from Photos App (not camera roll) to new Macbook Pro?

If you do not have the original photos on your computer you need a third party app to help with the transfer.
I often use Photo Manager Pro. You can copy photos from your Photos app into Photo Manager pro. I then use an ftp application on my computer to wireless copy photos from my iPad to my computer.

How get all photos from photo streams without iPhoto

Hi to make A long story short, I lost a Hard Drive with iPhoto on it... Including all my baby's pics ... However I can still see them in the photo streams on my idevices.. First off without that Mac how can just grab all the photos off photo stream without iPhoto?
Secondly, if I can install iPhoto on another machine or drive will that help or hurt me? Will all the photos show up under my Apple ID and can I just copy them or am I running any risk of deleting the streams?
Is my only option to copy photos from photo stream a few at a time? And does that not repush them back up to the stream and erase older photos?
Thank you for any help!!
Yes I know I am a complete idiot for not backing up or using online backup service...

If you create a new library on another Mac, set its Photo Stream preferences to
and log into your iCloud account on that Mac and enable Photo Stream, the Photo Stream photos will automatically be imported into the new library. It can take a while depending on how many photos are in the stream.
When you're done log out of your iCloud account and copy the library to a flash drive or DVD (if small enought) till you get your new drive.

How can I move photos from photo stream to an Album?

I want to rearrange photos in my photos into Albums. Can someone tell me how to move photos from photo stream into Albums?

The trick is to move the photos to Camera Roll first then to individual albums. Used to go direct but not on the 5s - or least that's the best I've come up with.

How to export photos from photo gallery to my iPad

How to export photos from photo gallery to my iPad

I had no trouble finding the "Export" tools in the "File" menu. They are greyed out when no photo is selected, but they are functional after selecting one or more photos.
I agree that it would be nice to have the "Reveal in Finder" option back, but they probably don't want us mucking about inside the Photos library structure.

In iPhoto 9.4.3 the following works:
If you have not auto imported the photos from the Photo Stream, as Larry suugests, select the photos that you want to import in the Photo Stream, and drag them to the "Events" view in the Source List. They will be imported as new events, auto split with respect to your preferences.
