The back up is supposed to be a rolling back up and therefore may still contain data from previous back ups. To free up space you may wish to delete the back up and start again.

Why has the camera roll and/or stream roll been merged together?

Wwe hat happened to my stream roll? This IOS8 system is not as user friendly as IOS7 was.

Update your iPhone to iOS 8.1 and you'll get the Camera Roll and My Photo Stream back.
If you have already updated to 8.1 go into Settings and turn off "iCloud Photo Library Beta" which will bring back the Camera Roll and My Photo Stream.

HT4847 I need to free up space in my iCloud - most of it is used by photos - if I stop backing up my camera roll will it send the photos to my photo stream?? I already backup all photos on photo stream on my macbook??

so if I stop backing up my camera roll and delete the ones stored on icloud - will it still send all new photos taken to my photostream?? I already save the photos on my macbook.
thanks sheri

Yes, Photo Streams work independent of the iOS Backup.
But a better way to manage your photos would be best. Use Camera Roll for new photos only like we used to do with the old film cameras. Once your Photos are organized into iPhoto on your Mac sync them back to the iPhone through iTunes. The photos in the Photo Library on the iPhone are not included with the iOS Backup since they should be already backed up in the computer's backups.

In the photos app I have 2 camera rolls and 1 photo gallery. Each new photo that I take gets stored in one of the camera rolls, but when I back up the photos to my computer it only backs up the one camera roll, and not any of the new picks. Please help

In the photos app I have 2 camera rolls and 1 photo gallery. Each new photo that I take gets stored in one of the camera rolls, but when I back up the photos to my computer it only backs up the one camera roll, and not any of the new picks. In the one I backed up I have 500 plus photos and the other over 1000. I need to back up the 1000 one- camera roll. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Help .... Please

Is there any way I can recover deleted pictures from Camera Roll and iCloud? Please please help me. All of my precious pictures are gone that I can never EVER get back. I dont have any iCloud or Camera Roll backup; and my PC can't download more software.

Hi everyone! I'm in need of extreme help. You see, today, two months ago I went out of the country from the United States of America. I took about 1500 pictures ONLY on my iPod touch. When I returned to the United States to my home, I accidentally deleted a little more than 100 pictures. Then, thinking I could get ALL of the pictures back at once, I restored my iPod touch from an iCloud backup I had a couple of days before. Instead of getting all of my pics back, they all got erased. The pictures that I did delete were deleted from Camera Roll AND Photo Stream (iCloud). Then, I was only able to get about 500 pictures back from iCloud. So about 1000 are still gone. When i did the restore, I thought all my pictures would be there, but they weren't and I couldn't possibly figure out why; because a restore from iTunes or iCloud is supposed to restore your device to the settings of the time you backed up your device. All of my other settings were just the way they were supposed tone for the time being, all except my pictures, which contained not one picture in any folder. So EVERYTHING from Cameta Roll was gone, and only about 500 pictures survived. I kept retoring and restoring, hoping they would come back but unfortunately they didn't. Then one time a restored again, I saw all of them back!! But then, within a blink of an eye, they disappeared as soon as I tapped on one picture. Then, I knew they were still in reach, but I just had to find them. Where could those 1000 pictures go? I looked up how to recover deleted photos, but I have to install a software. My computer CANNOT possibly take anymore software on it, my PC is very sensitive and I cannot delete anything off of it. Please please help me. What can I do to get my pictures back? They are memories that I can never EVER EVER get back. Thank you so much.

Please please help me, if you know how.

My home computer had a virus and was reset. My photos were loaded from my adobe photoshop software. My computer will now only load from my camera roll and all my other photos are trapped on my 4g touch. Can anybody help?

When I plug in my ipod I can only get pics from my camera roll. Its like the other pics are not even there. I am afraid if I sync it to my computer I will erase all these picture. There are over 2500 pics of my family and kids. I loaded them from my Adobe photoshop 5 software.

You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com. If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it. (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album. Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored. Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another. Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

Is it possible to put photos back onto Camera Roll.

This will sound silly but I updated my phone yesterday and was having trouble syncing with my pc. So i took all the Photos from the camera roll and saved them on my desktop. However, upon updating I have noticed 2 things :
I now have seperate folders for the camera roll on DCIM (They are grouped into years it would seem) when i open my phone on autoplay.
and secondly.
I cannot add photos to the camera roll. I had 1800 pictures from all over the world which I liked having on there due to the places icon in Photos.
Is there anyway of adding these photos back onto the camera roll, or am I going to have to suck it up and chalk it down to experience.
Thanks in advance.

I had this question too, but I didn't want to compromise. After hours of research: Dropbox
I have been putting pictures onto my laptop from my phone because I kept on filling up my iCould backup because I only had 5 GB of storage. I recently upgraded to 50 GB of storage. So now I am painfully putting every picture into camera roll.
I personally I am doing this on a 10.8.1 Macbook Pro running a quad 2.6 i7 w/ 8GB of RAM if anyone is curious.
First click on Finder, click on Pictures, select the pictures you want by drawing a box over the pictures you want to save to Dropbox and then right-click over the selected items and click on Copy X Items
Next click on the Dropbox select the folder you want to save the pictures to, right click in an empty space and select Paste X Item
Wait until you see green check marks like in the screen shot above to ensure the pictures are uploaded. Then go to your iPhone. In this case an iPhone 4S running 5.1.1. I am going to assume you know how to search for and install an app, so go and get Dropbox from the App Store
Go ahead and choose a picture go ahead and save it. Now keep on repeating until the job is done. Here is what one picture save looks like.
I know it says photo library, but here is my Camera Roll with pictures that I saved using Dropbox. I edited outit all the faces.

Is there a way to get pictures that I have deleted from my camera roll and photo stream back on my phone?

I accidentally deleted pictures from my camera roll and they weren't in my photo stream (so I guess I must've deleted it from there too), and I want to know if there's a possible way to recover my old pictures.

You can either sync them back to your iPhone is you have them saved on a computer, or you can restore from a backup if you have one. Those would be about your only options. iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

When I take a photo it goes to camera roll and my photo stream. This doubles the memory being used. Can I delete the camera roll?

When I take a photo it goes to camera roll and my photo stream. This doubles the memory being used. Can I delete the camera roll? This seems pointless to have the same pictures twice. My Photo Stream pictures upload to my PC, so why should I have the same photos in Camera Roll?
Am I supposed to delete pictures in camera roll after they go into My Photo Stream? Why can't I just take a picture and it go to photo stream on its own? My camera roll AND My Photo Stream go back to March 11, 2014

You're misinformed and have asked several questions that I'll try to tackle.
No it doesn't double the memory. The Photo Stream image is simply a pointer to what you have in your camera roll.
If you delete pictures from your camera roll, leaving them only in Photo Stream, you will lose those images forever if you don't then pull them out of Photo Stream on another connected device. Photo Stream is meant to be TEMPORARY cloud storage for your images. Read about it here: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
You should ALWAYS offload your images if you want to keep them. See how to do that here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

How to get iPhone 4s Videos back into Camera Roll?

I need the exact same file with no compression back into camera roll. It was a video that I recorded with my iPhone 4s and accidentally deleted after backing it up to my iMac. I don't want the file to be compressed. I want the original back into Camera Roll. I am using Mountain Lion with everything updated. Even my iPhone has the most up to date iOS.
P.S. Let me make it clear that I do not want the videos to go into the videos app. I NEED it in Camera Roll. Thank you so much for your help.

The only way to do this is to restore your phone from a backup that contains the deleted video.

HT204022 I have 1200 pics on camera roll and 900 on photo stream. 1. why are they different? 2. if all are supposedly backed up on iCloud if I delete all photos on my phone will they still be on iCloud or do I need to separately download them to my pc fir

I have 1200 pics on camera roll and 900 on photo stream. 1. why are they different? 2. if all are supposedly backed up on iCloud if I delete all photos on my phone will they still be on iCloud or do I need to separately download them to my pc first?

Photos are only uploaded to iCloud after photo stream is enabled. It's possible that you already had 300 photos in your camera roll when you turn it on so they weren't uploaded. Also, photo stream also only maintains photos for 30 days, although earlier photos already streamed to your device from photo stream are not deleted. If you had turned photo stream off, then back on, and the 300 photos fell outside of this 30-day window at the time, they would not be in your photo stream album. (FYI, photo stream will also only save the last 1000 photos.)
If you delete the photos on your phone from the camera roll album, photo stream will be not be effected. If you delete them from the photo stream album on your phone, they will be deleted from your photo stream on your phone and any other devices connected to the same iCloud account/photo stream.
To keep your camera roll photos permanently, don't rely on photo stream as a backup. Import them to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083).

My iPhone 4 refuses to save pictures and at some instances, delete my existing pictures. I take a picture, and then go to camera roll and look, but it doesn't show up. The same thing happens when I try to screenshot things; it won't save.

My iPhone 4 is severely making me mad. It won't save any pictures I take. I will take the picture, then go to view it in the Camera Roll, and it just won't be there. The same thing occurs when screen shotting things on my iPhone. Some times it won't even let me delete the existing pictures I had on my phone before this all happened. I will click delelte, then it will pause, and eventually close me out of the photos app. However, when I go to settings, it says I have 440MB of pictures on here somewhere. But I can oly see 3 pictures in the camera roll. Also, it says in the camera roll app that it is 'Restoring...' then just sits and loads and won't restore anything at all. HELP ME PLEASE. I have iOS 7.1 currently installed.
