HT1212 will i loose all the photos on my phone if it hasnt been backed up?

will i loose all the photos on my phone if i reset it with a hard reset?

There is no such thing as a "hard reset".
Pictures taken with the device are designed to be regularly copied from the device to a computer as you would with any digital camera. Use the device as designed.

If i make a new Itunes account/Apple ID and I log into it on a computer and sync it to my phone, will I loose all the content on my phone?

I used to share an Itunes account but I recently made my own through my phone. I have all my stuff from my phone backed up on the computer on my old Apple ID/Itunes account. I want to back up all my current content on my phone to my NEW Apple ID/Itunes account but I'm afraid things will erase if I try to do so. How can I do this and still keep all the content on my phone currently?

You can't back up iTunes store content to a different account on your oomputer.

Dear MAC-Friends.
PLEASE HELP ME.
I am extremely afraid to do something wrong - what will be a failure so I loose all the photos I had in my iphoto library before installing the Mountain Lion.
I have just installed the MOUNTAIN-LION and now I can´t use my Iphoto-programme without answering the following question:
Choose another Library ? ( But I only want the choose the photos which one was in the old iPhoto-Library and not the other photos on the MAC-computer ? ).
and the other possibility is:
Create a new Libray ! Which iPhoto-library ?
And why create a new and to risq to loose the old photos.
PLEASE HELP ME.
Kind regards FINN GRABOWSKI

Ok. Let me first ask you, do you have any backups of your files - for example, do you use Time Machine or any other backup system?
Next, quit iPhoto. In the Finder, go to your Pictures folder. Is there a file there called iPhoto.Library? How large is it? (If it doesn't show the size, click once on it, click cmd-I to see the information). If it's a healthy size (ie, several GB), then that should be your library, and you can double-click it to launch iPhoto. (The application will remember where your library is next time, you can just launch iPhoto normally).
If that's not the right file, check your Trash. Is there anything in there?

Will i loose all my photos if iPhoto isn't working?

will i loose all my photos if iPhoto isn't working? my computer just got updated by my iPhoto is saying it isn't compatible? will i loose my photos if they were in folders on iPhoto?

my computer just got updated by my iPhoto is saying it isn't compatible? will i loose my photos if they were in folders on iPhoto?
What is your MacOS X version and your current version of iPhoto?
if you just updated to a newer MacOS X version, for example MacOS X 10.9.x, your version of the iPhoto.app may be no longer compatible and you need to update or upgrade iPhoto to a newer version. Check at the App Store if there is an update for iPhoto. If not, post back with the versions you are having installed. You may need to buy an upgrade.

The photos in your iPhoto library are save, even if you have to upgrade to a newer version, but it is always wise to make a backup before updating or upgrading, just in case.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It won't affect any photos in photo stream but any photos within the back up itself will go.

My husband recently tried to sync my ipod to itunes and in the process he managed to loose all the photos I had stored on the ipod. When I go to my pictures folder on my (Dell) laptop there is now a folder called ipod photo cache. How do I view?

Those photos taken or bumped photos should bi in the iPod's Camera Roll album
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. Note however, that the the backup that had the photos may have been overwritten by a subsequent backup that did hot have the photos on the iPod.See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Have you looked on the computer? Maybe they were imported to the computer and then deleted from the iPod. Since the photos were not synced to the iPod they are not in the iPod Photo Cache folder .

Be careful, when you connect the iPhone to your mac, unless you have saved the photos. Synced photos may easily be accidentally deleted by syncing again. And do not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), that will erase synced photos as well. Synced Photos are not included in the device backups.
Set your iTunes Preferences to "Devices > Prevent iPos, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically". Otherwise iTunes may launch and sync your iPhone with an empty iPhoto library the moment you connect it.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to sync the synced photos back. Apple recommends to mail them back, but that would be a lot of clicking (iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support). You could also share them to a Shared Album, but a third party app like TD recommended, will be better.

I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto. The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all. How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

How do I delete all the photos off my phone

how do I delete all the photos off my phone ?

Hi tehdeh,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
There are a couple of ways to do this. As a precaution, I like to import my pictures to my computer first ... which gives me a backup of the photos, AND gives me the option to delete them after import. This article explains how:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

If you have synced photos or albums from iTunes to your iPhone, you can remove them that way as well:

HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album. However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos. If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos. Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

Loosing all the photos during the upgrade from 4 to 6?

i-Photo- from 4 to 6
My trusty e-mac ( G-4 1gig) blew out it's optical drive so yesterday i had a new 16X installed. I needed to upgrade my OS to run iLife 06 and the new optical drive. My old configuration (OS 10.10 was running iPhoto4. OS 10.4.6 is now installed, iLife 06 is installed. Cool. Except as I launch iPhoto for the first time the warning is "that I will loose all my photos..." (6600 of them) I have made a backup on an external HD folder of my iPhoto Library (6.5 Gigs). Where is the step by step proceedure to have iPhoto06 and all my family and Location Scouting photos and albums just the way i organized them?
thanks

Vim:
Is that the the exact warning that you get? I don't remember those exact words from before. Make a backup copy of your iPhoto Library folder and then download and run BatChmod on the original iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Make sure you've upgraded iPhoto to the latest version, 6.0.4. Then launch iPhoto and let it have a go at the library. With the backup copy there's no risk and we'll see if BatChmod helped at all.

I plugged in my new iPhone5 to my macbook and all the photos on my phone were erased

I plugged in my new iPhone5 for the first time into my macbook pro and all the photos that I took this past week on my iPhone5 were completely erase and replaced with all my old photos...is there anyway to get them back?

I have the same problem in my ipad 2 wifi with ios 6.1, but my iphone 5 with ios 6.1 works well with iPhoto, I dony know how to fix it, I used Diskaid to sync the iPad photos.

I have never connected by iphone5 to my computer because the computer was broken. Now its fixed. Will I lose all the photos and texts on my iphone5 if I restore from last backup of my old 4s?

I have never connected my iphone5 to my computer because the computer was broken. Now that it is fixed, I want to know if I will lose all my photos and texts on the 5 if I restore from last backup of my 4s?

If you restore to an older backup, you will get the content that is in the backup. Everything on the iPhone will be erased and you will be brought back to the time that backup was made.
