HT4859 When I turn camera roll backup to OFF, and those same photos are on my other devices, will they remain on them, even though icloud will delete them from storage?
When I turn camera roll backup to OFF, and those same photos are on my other devices, will they remain on them? I know they will not be on icloud storage,
but will I still have them on my devices?
Deleting the icloud backup totally is pretty scary. If my phone accidentally went swimming, I wouldn't be able to restore all the data with icloud. I was trying to find a way to delete only old backups (which you say do not exist), or if I could just delete the photos from the backup. I guess I could delete the icloud backup, switch off the camera roll from backing up, and then do an immediate backup of everything else. What do you think?
I am not a good apple person.
Thanks for your help.

You cannot backup photos to iCloud.
You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage. -

HT4859 How long do your photos stay in your camera roll backup?
How long do your photos stay in your camera roll backup?
There is no separate camera roll backup. The camera roll is part of your overall iPhone backup, which will remain until your delete it or overwrite it with a new backup.

Hi all. Since updating my iphone 6 a couple days ago, I have discovered awful glitches in photos. When I save photos they do not get added to my camera roll. My Camera Roll and Photo Stream used to match. I would take a photo on the camera and I would see it on my photo stream. Yesterday, I added an edited photo to my camera roll by saving it (I thought). But it was not there. In the past, if I wanted a photo to post in any app, from Twitter to Facebook to Yelp, in order to retrieve it easily (if I had a lot of photos on my phone) I would sometimes text it to myself and then save it. It would be added to my camera roll. Then, when any app asked me to upload a photo, I could find it right at the beginning of my camera roll photos. Now, when I save a photo it does not appear on my camera roll. I discovered this yesterday when posting a Yelp review. I found the photo I wanted to use on my camera roll and it was way back at the beginning of the camera roll. I edited the photo. I saved it. It did not get added to my camera roll. So then I looked for the photo on the camera roll where I had originally found it way back at the beginning. The edited version of the photo was gone. Could not find my photo to upload to Yelp. Then I discovered it was the same with every other app on the phone.
PHOTO STREAM DISAPPEARED! This was my main problem and primary question until I tried to resolve the issue. I saw a message on my phone that said (I thought) that I needed to connect my phone to my laptop to restore icloud backups. So I manually connected my phone to my Mac Pro Laptop (2011) and backed up my photos. I made sure iCloud was turned on for photos. I have it set to Download and Keep Originals. It is also set to Upload to My Photo Stream. And iCloud sharing is turned on.
WHEN I connected my phone to my computer I got a message on my phone about setting it up for personal hotspot and it would not complete the update unless I replied. At first i did set it up, but it seemed to be an issue, so I simply let my phone and computer use my home wifi network. I don't need the personal hotspot, but it seemed to affect the photo issue further.
Now where I used to see Photo Stream and Camera Roll, it simply says All Photos. I am extremely confused. This is a mess. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!I restored it twice, once from icloud backup and then from my computer back up. I just restored again and set it up as a new iphone and now my photos are saving again. I was then able to sync apps and music from my itunes to my phone... So happy you wouldn't believe!!

My iPhone 5S is using 2.5GBs of storage for the camera roll. I deleted all but 190 photos and this did not change. My other devices cannot backup to iCloud due to the volume on my iPhone. Any ideas?
Try turning off the Camera Roll option in Settings>iCloud>Backup & Storage>Manage Storage>Your device. Then turn it back on again.
Cheers,

Why is my iCloud camera roll backup much larger than my camera roll?
Hi,
I recently reached my iCloud backup limit and was looking for things to get rid of to improve this, after deleting a load of photos I had a bit more space, but checking the backup of my camera roll compared to the actual camera roll size on my iPhone the two are massively different - on the phone it says 4.8GB, whereas on the backup it says 7.8GB! Is there a reason for this? I have backed up since deleting the photos by the way, so that's not the issue.
Thanks in advance.Never mind, I found another discussion with the answer, I just turned camera roll off in my backup and then backed up before turning it back on and backing up again - it seems the backup was keeping the old photos for some reason.

Photos and camera apps crash when I hit camera roll/take a picture
After updating to ios5, I can no longer access my camera roll, not take a picture. When I hit camera roll, photos crashes. When I take a picture it says saving, then crashes. I have tried turning off the apps and reopening them. I have tried restarting/resetting. I have tried turning it off and letting it sit for 3 days. I tried accessing my camera roll through other apps like facebook, twitter, photoshop but it crashes. I tried to access my camera roll from iphoto and import my pictures but my iphone no longer comes up in iphoto. I feel as though that restoring it may be the only option left, but I do not want to lose my photos and there's still no guarantee that photos and camera will work after restoring. Anyone else ever hear of this before? Help!
There is a similar thread elsewhere...but to save you the search, simply go to this page:

I was playing my iPad 2 I left the room for 5 minutes when I came back it was off and now it won't turn back on
Try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -
If i use icloud to back up my ios devices but turn camera roll off will all of my photos on my ios devices be saved on my mac? they appear to be in iphotos on the mac currently? I want to turn camera roll off from the back up as it is quite large, 19GB.
They will if you have iPhoto '11 9.2.2 or higher and have Automatic Import checked in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream (iCloud). If you do, your photo stream photos are automatically imported to your iPhoto events.
You can check by opening iPhoto, selecting photo stream (iCloud) on the left panel, then Control-clicking on you photo stream photos. If the pop-up says "Show in Library", they have been successfully imported to your iPhoto library (Events).
Edit: You can then use Time Machine to back up your iPhoto library. -
Why is my iPhone Camera Roll using 10.0 GB but my Photo Library only using 6.3 GB?
When I look at usage in my iPhone, Camera Roll is using 10.0 GB, but Photo Library is only using 6.3 GB. I do not have Photo Stream enabled. Why the difference?
In my case, Camera Roll is just the pictures taken on my phone and the remainder of the photos on my phone were synced from my computer via iTunes and are under "Photo Library". If you go to Photos and then tap Albums at the bottom right, it will show which pictures are in the Camera Roll. My Camera Roll usage is much smaller than Photo Library as I only have 2 pictures there since I regularly import them to my computer where I have more control and extra backup capability. I then sync back some that I want to also have on the phone.

I was organizing my photos into albums. then deleting them from my Camera roll. Then I went into MY Photo Stream and started deleting the pics I had moved to albums;Come to find out I deleted all pic from everywhere!! Would the iCloud still have them saved
First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have? -

when i play back an mp3 dj mix i,ve burn,t to cd in my car when i turn the engine of and then restart the car the cd starts back from the beginning how do i solve this problem so that when i turn the engine on end off the cd plays from the same place it did before i turned the engine off
It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
However.. it's not Logic related.

I changed jobs and had to change email/AppleID. Before doing so, I did not copy the pics on the photo stream of my iPad to the album and now the only pics being synce with my iPad are new pics either saved or taken on phone. Old pics are still on phone. There has to be a way to get these pics to be able to stream them on to iPad, right?
You have a couple of options to get them in your photo stream:
Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot. This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll. This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once. Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll. These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream. (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)
Or, you can add them to a shared stream and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). The shared stream will appear on your iPad and you can either leave things this way, or save them to the camera roll on your iPad and delete the shared stream. They won't be in your photo stream but they will at least be on your iPad.
