How to sync photos on iphone album to iphoto

i recently got a new hard drive for my macbook, so all my photos on iphoto are gone. i still have the photos on my iphone, but they're in their own album, and everytime i try to sync my iphone to iphoto, i can only access the photos in the camera roll. is there a way to trasnfer the photos in the iphone albums to iphoto?

Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone as part of the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos are reduced on your iPhone. This is why Apple does not support transferring these photos in the opposite direction.
Photos on your computer's hard drive should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data. Did you lose all important data on your computer's hard drive, or just your iPhoto library?
There are 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring this data in the opposite direction, but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos is lost.
Here is one.

    Pics taken with the iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.  they are not part of the sync process at all.

    To sync any photos that are not part of photo stream, you will need to sync the photos to your computer via iTunes first and then to the other device.
    WC, will this work from photostream on my computer too?  I just turned photo stream on on my computer.  Thank you.  Liz

  • How to delete photos from iPhone but not iPhoto?

    iPhone 5S on iOS 8.1.2 with over 6,000 pictures, brand new Macbook Pro on 10.10.1 Yosemite. All my photos are synched to iPhoto, and I want to delete the photos from my iPhone to clear up storage. My main concern is not losing the photos in iPhoto the next time I plug my phone in. Half the things I researched say it'll delete them, other half says they won't. I just want to have a clear iPhone and be able to view my pictures on my Macbook. How do I go about this without wiping my Mac clean?

    As I know, it won't delete the photos in iPhoto, but you can backup these photos on Mac to avoid any accident.
    you can transfer Photos from iPhone to Mac with Image Capture
    Connect your iPhone to Mac with USB cable > Run Image Capture on your Mac > Select your iPhone from the device list if it is not selected > Set the output folder for your iPhone photos > Click Import or Import all to transfer photos from iPhone to Mac.
    BTW, you can also try to delete only one photos on iPhone first and see if it will  disappeare on iPhoto to know what to to next.

  • HT4858 how to sync photos in iphone from icloud ?

    hey i bought an iphone ,,, i have sign in my icloud id,,, all i got my safari bookmarks but could not get my photos ,, which is 1,5 gb data shows  in my icloud account ,,, i am very worried how to get all my photos from my ipad to iphone >??

    When you turn on photo stream you only get photos that were added in the last 30 days, as older photo stream photos are no longer in iCloud.  To get your photos from your iPad to your iPhone, you can either add them to a shared stream and invite yourself as a subscriber (see ), then save them to the camera roll on your phone and delete the shared stream; or, you can use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your phone over your wifi.

  • HT1386 How to sync photos from iPhone 4s

    I have a 4S, but it doesnt seem to be letting sync my photos from the phone to my computer? Any ideas?

    Photos in the Camera Roll aren't synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, which is not handled by iTunes.

  • Syncing Photos from iPhone 5 to iPhoto on Macbook Air

    I have synced my photos from my iPhone 5 to my Macbook Air through iPhoto to free up storage.  I do not have a single picture in my camera roll, but on my iPhone in storage settings, it says that Photos and Camera are still taking up 7.2GB of memory (Specifically: Photo Library - 7.2GB, Synced from iTunes Library - 0.7 KB, and Shared Photo Stream - 4.1 KB).  How do I completely delete this photos off of my iPhone to free up storage without erasing them from my iPhoto on my Macbook?

    Check Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library (Beta)  = "Off"
    You may then need to reset the iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    iCloud Photo Library is not on your Mac yet.

  • Having problem loading photos from iPhone 5 to iPhoto

    starting syncing photos on iPhone 5 to iPhoto and it got hung up midstream . . . iPhoto just freezes up and I only get the psychedelic spinning wheel spinning for hours with nothing happening.  Not very Apple-like.  Any ideas?

    Hey AppleTom7591,
    Thanks for the question. First, I would try this suggestion out:
    In iPhoto '11, select the option to "Repair the iPhoto Library Database" to check the iPhoto Library database for inconsistencies and repair them, if necessary. iPhoto '11 also includes the option to "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup," which performs the same functions as it does in iPhoto '09, but should only be attempted if the "Repair the iPhoto Library Database" option does not help.
    from: iPhoto 6 and later: Rebuilding the iPhoto library
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638
    If that doesn't work, I would try using Image Capture to get the pictures onto your Mac:
    Open Image Capture (in the Applications folder) and see if the camera is recognized in this application. If your camera is still not recognized by iPhoto, check to see if the camera has a removeable storage card, such as a Compact Flash (CF) or Secure Digital (SD) card. If so, you may be able to mount this card and read the photo files from the Finder if you have a USB or FireWire card reader connected to your computer.

  • HT1296 how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    I have the same issue. I've already read the iPhone user guide which didn't help.
    The user guide explains how to turn on Photo Sync in iTunes but no specifics of where the imported photos will be. I tried syncing a few times and I cannot find the photos on my PC.iTunes transferred all my PC photos *to* the phone, but not the other way around.
    I'd imagine they should be in the folder that is specified in iTunes.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • How do I sync photos from Iphone to Ipad?

    How can I sync photos from Iphone 4S to Ipad 4th generation?

    The only way is to sync to iTunes on a computer and then sync from iTunes to the other device, using USB.
    If you're thinking of using photo stream, that won't work now, since only photos taken AFTER each device was logged into photo stream will sync between them.  All older photos must be synced via a computer.
    The exception to this is if you use dropbox or some other service to act as the middleman.
