How to manage photo albums in iPad?

Well II6 is here and looks like you can create albums on iPad now. Great. However, also discovered that once you add photos to them, those albums dont sync back to your mac (itunes) or iphoto.
I use iphoto, and can sync albums down to my ipad (this is nothing new). But i cannot add photos from my ipad (or taken on my iphone) to an album downloaded from iphoto. However, you can add photos to an album created on the ipad.
Am I missing something? This seems to make no sense. If i spend all my time organizing in iphoto why would i not want those same albums i organize in ipad saved to iphoto? Ipad organization won't scale to manage all of my photos, and that is only ONE device.
Is this an oversight by Apple, or am i missing some key use case that i need to embrace? Would really appreciate input on this one.
thank you,

Send feedback to Apple.

  • How to manage photos on my iPad OS7.0.4 ?? IT ***** !!

    Why is this so difficult ??  Apple has always been about simplicity until now. 
    I've tried everything to delete my photos from my iPad, the ipad shows itself shows no photos, yet when I connect to iTunes and look in Summary, it says there is 1000 photos??  When I look in iTunes, there are no photos, it's not being synched, i've tried synching an empty folder even and nothing works.  This is the most irritating thing in the world, I don't have this kind of time to mess with this !!  Additionally, it is unbelievable to me that even on the iPad, you can't select all photos with a single selection, you have to go through and delete everything MANUALLY !!!  I don't know if it's an iTunes thing or the OS on the iPad, but I need some good advice with this.
    Thanks !!

    Restore from your latest backup.
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    It is always good practice to transfer your photos and videos to your computer to be backed up.
    iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    If you had Photo Stream enabled you will be able to retrieve photos from the last 30 days.

  • How to manage photo albums without duplicating them in photo library ?

    Hi reader,
    I have created multiple albums in photo library. And, i am storing pictures in different albums.. But, when i do that, picture also stays in photo library (default place where photos are being store after camera click). so, i end up having duplicate photos: 1) in the album which i have created, 2) in the photo library-where it is store by default after taking picture.
    i don't want to have this duplication done. Once i add a particular picture/pictures to the new album, it should automatically be removed from the photo library..
    Can anyone help me how can i do that ??

  • How to see photo albums on iPad in alphabetical order?

      They are already sorted alphabetically in iPhoto, but syncing won't put them in this same order.

    If you are syncing them from iPhoto then they should copy over in the same order. You could try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over in the correct order - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • I am confused about how to manage photos between my iPhone, iMac and iPad.  How do I avoid using all the storage pace on my various devices?

    How do I manage photos between my ipad, iphone and imac without using all the storage on the various devices?

    If enabled, iCloud Photo Stream ensures all new photos are sent to all your devices. Then you can simply add the ones you want to each one's Library, and delete any photos you don't want.
    One technique is to designate one device as the "master" containing all your photos - probably your iMac, since it is likely to have the greatest available storage - and make sure you have a backup strategy for it. That way, any photos you choose to keep on your iPad and iPhone are redundant copies that can be deleted as you wish, or as required should you need to restore your iOS device. If your iMac breaks and its Library irretrievably lost, the importance of its backup becomes critical. Therefore, consider having more than one backup, and more than one geographical location for them.

  • How do I delete photo albums from Ipad 2?

    How do I delete photo albums or photos in photo albums from IPad 2? 

    If the photos that you want to delete are in the Camera Roll, just tap on the photo that you want to delete, then tap the trash can in the upper right hand corner and select delete. If you are in the thumbnail view, tap on the curved arrow icon in the upper right corner and then tap on the photo or photos that you want to delete, then tap on delete in the upper left part of the screen.
    If the photos that you want to delete are on the iPad from a previous sync with iTunes, you have to sync to iTunes to delete them. Deselect the photos in iTunes while your iPad is connected and then sync and the photos will be removed from the device

  • How to manage photos from multiple accounts

    Hi,
    i am trying to solve one problem. I have one iMAC where i have two user profiles connected to different AppleIDs. Next to it there are two iPhones and two iPads. I am trying to find out, how to manage photos from all these devices using one account on iMAC. Second question is if there is any finction in iPhoto that can publish images to NAS server? Second alternative for me is to byu iCloud drive space and use Family sharing for publishing photos. Bellow text schema is attached, it is only my idea and i dont know if this could work like this. Did anyone somehow solved this configuration? Thanks

    I can see the screenshot if I double click on it.  However, here is it again.  Being Halloween maybe it'll show.

  • HT1386 I am unable to synch photo albums from ipad 3 to itunes on my windows pc. In addition to camera roll and ipod cache albums, i have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!

    Dear Community members,
    I am unable to synch photo albums from iPad 3 to iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
    In addition to Camera roll and iPod cache default albums, I have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. Eg -  Family pix in a folder, Office pix in another, Plant pixs in another, House architecture pix in another.......all also exist in the camera roll.
    I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!
    I have ios5 on Ipad 3 and the latest Itunes on Windows PC.
    As a precaution, I have used the windows "add pictures from...." to keep a copy in a separate folder in the windows desktop, but again it has all the pics mixed up together and not sorted as per the various albums in the ipad!
    How to replicate the albums in the windows PC???
    Regards
    Sohal NS

    Sync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
    Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
    Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

    I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

    If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox. 
    There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.
