I can't save a picture to my camera roll from an email

I emailed a picture from my MBP to myself then downloaded the email on my IPhone 4S. When I tried to open the picturethe only options I had were to email the pic, post to FB or Twitter or print it out. There used to be an option of saving th picture to the camera roll. Where has this option gone? IPhone 4S IOS6.1

There still should be an option to save to camera roll.
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

How do i save a picture to the camera roll from a text message in ios 7

I am attempting to save a picture from a text message to my camera roll. However when i hold the picture the options are "copy/More" More gives the options to delete or forward via text message. And if i press copy it only copies it to be pasted. In the past i was given several options to send the pic via email/text/save to camera roll/drop box etc.
Please advise as to how i can save pictures from my text to the camera roll.
Thank you!

If you receive a picture via email or text message in ios 7 and when you press the action icon to save the picture and you do not get the option to save to your camera roll. Press and hold on the the image and you will get an overlay pop up to save the image. I have no idea why some attachments don't have option in action menu to save in the camera roll but by experimentation and earned frustration I found the above to work in certain situations.
Be well and have fun and feel rewarded in your frustrations. For without challenges, life would be an utter bore.

Why can't I delete pictures off of camera roll. I also can't send a picture to a friends phone. One last question.......why do pictures freeze up on the screen and I have to hit the power button to go back to home screen. Thanks for any help.

Why can't I delete pictures off of camera roll? I also can't send Pictures to someone else's phone. My picture seems to freeze up and I can't do anything, particularly delete the picture. I'm new to iPhone so I'm really just learning how this iphone thing works :)

Did you recently start using iCloud to backup your photos?
Wife had the same problem today. Remembering that I had recently signed her up for more space on iCloud and started backing up her photos, I decided to roll the dice and turn that off. Plug phone back into computer and *boom* I now have the option to delete. Now I just have to figure out how I can do both = \

How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

Hello jcamengual,
I was having the same problem you're having - for those that don't understand... I synced photos on to my ipad which placed them inside "photos" not cameral roll. I then sold me laptop as I thought I had no need for it. When I bought my new iMac I tried to use my external hard drive which had my back up on, however my hard drive no longer works. Thus unable to retreive my photos on to my iMac!
Anyway... long of the short of it is theres no easy way. But there are a few ways. I'm currently using icloud's photo stream. As long as you have photo stream set up on your mac you can create a shared stream on the ipad with a friend. This shared stream will appear on your mac, you can then "import photos" straight from the shared stream.
Alternativley you could use something like drop box. Sync your pictures from iPad to drop box. Then download from drop box to Mac. As I said, no easy way that I have found but this does work. It just takes a long time.
Key Facts:
You can have 5000 photos inside a sharred stream
You can have 100 sharred streams
Therefore you can stream 500,000 photos - I hope you don't have that many.

Duplicated pictures when sync camera roll from iPhone to iTunes

Dear all,
2 issues:
1. When I sync my iPhone to iTunes and iPhoto opens (if there are pictures on the camera roll not yet imported), the non-imported pictures appear to be duplicated.
It is obviously quite annoying as I have to go through and delete the second image manually. Does anyone know how to sort this? I don't have HDR switched on. I have tried un-clicking sync iPhone over wifi, syncing and then clicking it back on again and syncing. Both these issues only started when I upgraded to my iPhone 6.
2. My iPhone refuses to sync over wifi. Occasionally the icon of the iPhone appears in iTunes, but that is very sporadic when it choses to and not. When it appears to be in iTunes I click sync and it says an error message of sync not possible and then the iPhone disappears from iTunes and I have to plug it in with cable.
I have spent in excess of 12 hours discussing this with various Senior technical support teams members at Apple who display enthusiasm about trying to help me until the point in which they go home for the day and then thy do not bother keeping to their ringback appointment so it all has to start again from scratch with a different person.
Suggestions made: Replace handset: Done. Try connecting your computer to router via cable: Hilarious, but done. Restore iPhone: Done. Technical data sent to apple: Done, but never got called back at agreed appointment to discuss results.
So I am throwing this issue out to the community.
From a very exasperated iPhone 6 user!

You should be importing these to your computer regulalry as you would from any digital camera.

I have so many pictures on my photo stream and camera roll. I synced them to my computer, the ones on my photo stream. can I delete the pictures in my camera roll? and still have the pictures on my computer? or do i have to save them from icloud folder to

Hi, i am an idiot when it comes to this. I have so many pictures on my photo stream and camera roll. i cant even take anymore pictures or even update to ios7. I synced my pictures to my PC, i think. can i know delete my camera roll or will my pictures disappear from my computer? im so confused!!

If you delete photo stream photos from your phone they will be deleted from the my photo stream album on your PC. Before doing that, be sure to copy or move them to a different folder on your computer.
Deleting camera roll photos won't delete anything from your computer. If you import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, you will get an option to delete them from your phone after they are imported.

How can i get my video back to camera roll

so am tryin to send it in another way the problem is i already deleted it from my camera roll
when ever i open my message i can see my video and i can play it !! but i can't save it back to my camera roll
it gives me only 2 options (copy/paste) and that's it ! So how can i get it back ^^
if uploadin a screenshot helps , please tell me to do so .

That's good but it is a lot simpler than that: Open iTunes, and connect your iPhone. Then go to your Phone, and choose "photoS" which should be at the very end. Select a folder on your Puter where you want to hold photos to be shared on your phone... and drag the movie mack in there. Notice that there is a selection that says "Inclide Videos" - So, drag the movie back into your shared folder, then hit SYNC - Boom, movie is back in your phone!

How can I save a picture in Photoshop Elements that was emailed to me using Photoshop Elements?

Save the attachment in a folder.
From the Organizer menu choose:
File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders
Navigate to your image and click Open.
If the photo is embedded, make a copy or screen grab and then whilst it’s still held in memory open the Elements Editor.
From the menu click:
File >> New >> Image from clipboard
Then use File >> Save As
Then choose jpeg.

Window users can't save my pictures i do sent by email

Hello,
Since i upgrade to OS X Lion Window users can't save photo's i do sent them by email. Before the upgrade it was never a problem.
They do receive the mail. When they open it they do see the photos but not as an attatchment. So no jp(e)g attachments...just the photo in the mail.
But whatever they do or try they just can't save the pictures i do mail them.
I also selected "Sent Windows used attatchemnt"....and all other things..nothing helps.
Who can help since i need to mail many pictures each day to window users.
I would really be thankfull.

It's a known issue with embedded images in Outlook.
It comes up with Mail on Lion cause Apple has decided to redesign Mail more close to the mail standards for better compatibility with the majority of mail applications.
Unfortunately Windows Outlook handle mail in a more proprietary way and not the way almost all other mail applications will do.
A workaround for Windows Outlook users is described in the knowledge base article behind the following link.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917120
A workaround for Apple users is only to put the file in a compressed folder (e.g. ZIP) prior of attaching to the mail.
