I can't belive that I can not sync my photos from my Iphone to my computer

why does itunes not let you sync both ways from your camera roll to your computer or from your photo albums to your computer. you mean the only way to get a photo off my Iphone is to e-mail it?

I definitely agree that there should be some sort of option to synchronize your Camera Roll photos through iTunes. This, for one, would eliminate the issue of losing your photos when being forced to restore your iPhone, see my post below:

  • My mac will not sync my photos from my iphone 5

    Everytime I plug in my iphone 5 to my computer for the last week, iphoto does not launch automatically. So I'll manually open it and even though there are several photos that haven't been uploaded it says there's only one and when I try to upload it it says its corrupt. I tried creating a new iphoto library to put the photos but it still says they're corrupt. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Email the photos to your self so you have a copy of them and then delete them off the phone.

  • How can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself

    how can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself, and I thought they would be in icloud but I can't find them

    Pics taken with the iphone are imported to your computer as with any other digital camera ( as explained in the manual).
    Pics synced to your iphone from your computer should still be on the computer.

    Mac OS X 10.7.3 supports iCloud:

    to determine if you are ready for it.

  • Itunes will not sync. my photos from my Iphoto library

    Itunes will not sync. my photos from my Iphoto library
    When I try to sync photos to my iPod (80gb video Ipod) it gives me the error "The iPod cannot by synced. The required file cannot be found." Does anyone know what file this is and why it cannot find it? Thanks for any help.

    I asked the same question last February and got no help from Apple and a well intentioned but not so useful reply from a fellow Mac user.

    However, when switching to a new MacBook Pro, I observed what happened and found out the root of the problem.
    When you tell iTunes to sync your iPod with your iPhoto Library, it creates a folder called "iPod Photo Cache" at >User>Pictures>iPhoto Library, which depending on the size of your iPhoto library, or how many pics you want to sync with iTunes, it can be huge! (1,600+ pics created a 1Gb+ folder).
    The solution is obvious: just delete that folder and let these applications create a new one next time you instruct iTunes to sync your photos. To be sure, next time you open iTunes after you throw away that folder, uncheck the iPhoto option, close iTunes, make sure the folder is gone, and then, when you open iTunes again with your iPod connected, check it again having made sure that the pesky folder is not there and iTunes (or iPhoto, who knows) will create a fresh one.
    By the way, iPod Photo Cache folders are created all over the place! Do a Spotlight search in your hard drive and you will be amazed about how many you will find!
    Good luck! Hope it works!

  • Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events

    Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events or even when i select specific events or albums.

    What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    Have you already confirmed that you trust the computer?
    Launch iTunes, then connect your iPhone to the computer.
    When prompted, confirm that you trust the computer.

  • I can not sync my photos to my iPhone

    im having trouble syncing my photos to my iphone with iphotos

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • Can no longer extract photos from my iphone to my computer

    For the first time, I've been unable to extract any of the photos from my iphone (original) to transfer to my computer. I think I've tried almost everything... including resetting all my settings and going directly to "my computer" and trying to access the files from there. However, I keep getting various messages depending on the methods I try. The most common of messages I keep getting is "The device is not connected or busy" or " the battery is low" ( my phone is usually charged) --which I've continually verified and double-checked , but to no avail.
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem?
    Thanks!

    Howdy folks! Same problem here since the iPhone 2.0.2 update. iPhoto says, "There are no items to import." And i double checked .. yup .. still 6 photos on my iPhone waiting to be transferred. And it's plugged into the same USB slot it always has been plugged into. And it's not on a USB hub. Nothing's changed except the 2.0.2 update earlier today.
    Little help..?
    Thanks a system heap!

  • How do I transfer photos from my iPhone to my computer that I orignally uploaded to the phone through iTunes?

    I set up my iPhone on my old computer and had transferred photos onto the phone through iTunes.  That computer has since crashed, and I was unable to untinstall itunes before it crashed.  I would like to transfer the photos from my iPhone to my new computer to free up some space on my iPhone.  Sine these are not pictures that i took with the iPhone, how do I transfer them to a computer?  These are baby pictures of my kids, and I do not want to lose them but am out of space on my phone.

    So I ended up uploading all of them to Google Drive.  Took 8 hours, but I got it done.  However, now I can't delete any of these pictures from the iPhone.  Can anyone help me with that?  Because the computer that I originally registered my phone with on itunes is not longer operational, I can't figure out how to do this.

  • How can I delete or transfer some (not all) Albums, Music and pics in "Photo Library" NOT purchased in iStore from my iPhone to a computer, when the original computer that did the original iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?

    The iPhone iOS 4 User Guide sees to indicate that the SYNCH function is all one way from computer to iPhone, unless it is for purchased items in iStore on the iPhone.

    2. How can I transfer Albums and Music (not purchased from iStore on iPhone) from my iPhone to the new computer?
    3. How can I delete some (not all) pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library"  when the original computer that did the iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?
    4. How can I transfer pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library" to the new computer?

    Hi wjosten,
    thanks for the "TouchCopy" software link. I have downloaded a demo copy and it will resolve my transfer of music from iPhone to the new computer. I can then delete any unwanted music on the new computer, then re-synch the updated music to iPhone.
    I am not sure about the photos.   On my iPhone, there are two photo "albums" - one called "camera roll" and the other called "photo library."  TouchCopy finds the pictures in the "camera roll" DCIM folder, and I can copy them to the new computer etc. 
    However, TouchCopy does not seem to find the "Photo Library" folder.  Any clues?

  • The old version of iPhoto would not import my photos from my iPhone and now there are over 11,000 of them, how do I erase these unwanted photos?

    I had the older version of iPhoto and it was allowing me to start the import from my iPhone but would unexpetcadly quit leaving all of the photos uniported and added duplicates of each one every time I opened iPhoto so that now there are over 11,000 of them. I have the newest version now and I was hoping there would be a way to erase them but I still cannot figure it out. Does anyone know how to erase the 11,000+ unwanted photos from the program?
    Thank you
    Heather

    So, are you gettting a message at start up? If so try:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • How do I get photos from my iPhone to my computer through Photo Stream that are older than 30 days?

    I set up iCloud on my Windows computer a few months after I got my iPhone.  I set up iCloud and Photo Streaming on my iPhone when I got it, so when I eventually set up iCloud on my computer it would only download the last 30 days of photos to my computer. Is there any way to get the older pictures on my phone to my computer though the iCloud?

    Photos are only stored in iCloud for 30 days. If they are still in the camera roll on your phone, you can extract them as you would photos from any digital camera. If you deleted them from the camera roll and they have rolled off of iCloud Photo Stream, I'm afraid they are gone.
