HT201371 Why isn't there an album ONLY for photos taken by camera?

This is my first iPhone, and I find it extremely messy that my camera roll has so many pictures from everywhere:
1- Pcitrues taken by camera
2- Pictures saved through Safari
3- Screenshots
4- and maybe some pictures saved through other Apps.
Why isn't there a way that all camera pictures can go into an album which no other app can use (including iOS' built-in apps such as Safari).
In Android for example, it was much easier...

It is just designed to use the computers ability to take off pictures as if it were a digital camera.
While we are all users here and cannot explain why they chose this route, my assumption is that many people already organize photos via some 3rd party program (Mac users use iPhone, many Windows users use Picasa etc), so they had the Camera Roll act as a digital camera when plugged in to allow users to maintain the same process of getting pictures and organizing that they are already use to using. If one things about it, it was a nice thing they did and not force users to use iTunes to get pics, then have to go to their other program and have to manually organize.

  • Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.

    Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.
    It would be nice if there was IT Pro specific forum. The MSDN Geneva forum has people who have programming questions for WIF in addition to people trying to get ADFS and Web App Proxy setup.
    WHY?

    Given the growing importance of Office 365 and the role of ADFS in some of the larger deployments, that may happen. Someday.
    It is somewhat arbitrary.
    AD DS, AD CS, AD FS, and AD RMS are all considered components of Active Directory.
    I suppose that's what the AD stands for...
    Yet, most ADCS questions are posted and answered in the Technet Security forum.
    ADFS questions are often referred to Project Geneva.
    Directory Services has its own forum.
    Group Policy has its own forum.

  • Why isn't there an app to create photo albums directly on an iPhone?

    The ability to create photo albums directly on the iPhone seems to be so obvious that I can only assume that the SDK doesn't allow for it, otherwise it'd be done. Am I missing something? Is it that a sync to the iTunes would break because the directory structure for the create-on-the-phone albums wont exist at the time of sync?
    Anyway, if ever there was low-hanging fruit, this is it. I've accumulated 600+ photos since '07, even after routine purges of cruft.

    iTunes doesn't handle the import of photos from a digital camera including from the iPhone's Camera Roll, which this would involve along with creating the albums or folders on your computer for the albums created on the iPhone from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
    The Camera Roll is for temporary storage as with any other digital camera and photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Although photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup, it isn't a good idea to depend on your iPhone alone for this which can be lost or stolen, or on your iPhone's backup which includes a significant amount of other data in the event a problem develops with the backup.
    Since photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, you can create albums/folders for select photos on your computer to include photos imported from your iPhone's Camera Roll and for other photos on your computer for transfer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process, which is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.

  • Why isn't there a cable adaptor for headphones to the dock?

    I was just wondering, if the iPod dock transmits the highest audio quality, is there a dock to headphone jack that allows the user to get audio via the dock connector? Why have a headphone jack at all?
    Sorry if this is a newb question. I can't find a cable online that does this
    p.s. I'm not looking for a dock to 3.5 mm jack cable. I'm looking for a dock cable that would allow me to plug my headphones into it.

  • HT2534 Why isn't there a 'none' option for my payment information?

    I have a debit card on my iTunes account and I added it a while ago. Now it is saying that my security code isn't valid so I just want to get my debit card off of my iTunes account COMPLETELY. My problem is that I can't find the 'none' option for payment method information. HELP ME PLEAASE!! "/

    For the security code issue, try here >  iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
    The None option is available from the iTunes Edit Payment Information window.
    With iTunes open, from the menu bar top of your screen click Store > Sign In
    Now go back to the menu bar click Store > View My Account. Enter your password click View Account.
    Now click Edit to the right of Payment Type.
    Be aware, the None option is not available in all countries.

  • Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes...why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just bought?  I assume I need it to download from iCloud.

    Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes per response to my previous question.  Why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just downloaded?  I assume that's the only way to access movies on the cloud.  ( My computer shows the icon.)

    What are you trying to do? If the movie is on your iPad, the cloud icon will not appear next to the movie. You will see the cloud icon next to the movie if you delete it from your iPad and then you can download it again. That is assuming that the movie is eligible for a free download as not every movie can be downloaded again for free.
    This is a screenshot of the purchased tab in iTunes on my iPad. These movies are already on my iPad so there is no cloud icon next to them for another download.
    What I don't understand is for what reason are you trying to access the movie? If you want to watch the movie, it is in the videos app. Maybe that is where I am missing the boat.

  • Why isn't there a chart with ios, mac os and itunes compatibily?

    Since there are so many people who have been screwed over by upgrading to a newer ios without knowing that they would need a different version of iTunes that can only work with a newer Mac os, but their computer cannot run that os, so now they are out of luck, WHY isn't there a chart somewhere that shows the compatibility between ios, itunes, Mac os and even Mac computer versions? The info is available if you search for it separately (lots of searches), but I can't find it all in one place. For example, ios7 works only with itunes 11.1 and up on 10.6.8 and up on an intel Mac. That is really useful for people who want to make sure their whole infrastructure is compatible before they upgrade. Does anyone know if something like this exists anywhere? Thanks.

    every Apple device is triple its cost! this is really unbarable! for example an iphone 4 16g is more than $699
    I ask apple managers to try  to work on  a solution for this problem, because it doesn't do good for only me but all lebanese!

  • Why isn't there an option to send a photo right after taking it?

    Currently, after taking a picture you can click on that picture in the lower right corner of the camera screen.
    Once you do that, you can choose < Camera Roll, Done, Edit, Trash.
    Why isn't there an option to choose that photo and send it as a Message, Email, etc. right there, instead of having to close the camera, go back to your photo albums, then choose the picture (which may take a little while if you have a lot of photos), and then choose the sending method?
    Its kind of frustrating when you want to quickly send a pic!

    There on my phone running iOS 7.0.4. Reset your phone:
    Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
    Bear in mind, won't be there if taking a pic from the lock screen.

  • Why isn't there an iOS app to access a Time Capsule?

    Synology has apps to access their NAS systems. Wouldn't it make sense for Apple to have an app for Apple iOS devices to connect to Apple Time Capsules?

    It would, if Apple wanted you to do this. But, they don't, since there would already be an Apple App for this if they did. I assume that you already know about FileBrowser here, which is not an Apple App.
    So you might want to tell Apple what you want, rather than have them tell you what you want.

    Why isn't there an iOS app to access a Time Capsule?
    The bottom line here is that "Why" questions can only be answered by Apple. Only they know the "Why" about anything.
    If you happen to be asking about a non-Apple App, and do not know about FileBrowser, you might want to take a look.

  • I just installed FF, and I want a SIMPLE way to copy all my bookmarks. Why isn't there a menu item to do this? The need seems OBVIOUS!

    I simply want to make a copy of all of my wife's "Favorites", i.e. your Bookmarks. In FireFox, PrntScrn won't do it, Windows "Snippets" won't do it, and any HELP answers I've seen are hidiously complex. The need/desire to have a paper copy or Word copy of her bookmarks (of course, WITH URL's) seems completely, blatantly obvious. Why all the secrecy? Why isn't there a MENU item to make a copy of the list of Bookmarks??
    And no, I'm not going to try AGAIN, AGAIN, AGAIN to do the Export/HTLM solution, whatever that means. Sheesh. I'm 10 minutes into FireFox and I'm ready to go back to I.E.

    So you are trying to import bookmarks from IE?
