I have 5000 photos on my 16GB iphone, where can I store them where i can access them easily?

I completely agree Fox. Photostream should be used as a convenience for sharing, not for anything other than temporary storage. Same goes for the device itself.
At least once a week, I import my photos/videos from my iPhone to my computer, and at least once a month, I make a backup of my computer to an external hard drive. And at least once every few months, I burn 2 DVDs of the past few months worth of photos/videos, one for myself, and one that I put in my fire safe with other important hard copy documents. And there are off-site image storage options out there as well which are available, and I've used occassionally.
The only time I've ever lost photos was about one half-day's worth while I was on vacation when my camera went overboard. And this was on day 5 of my vacation. Each night, I swapped out memory cards and uploaded the current day's card to my laptop. For anyone going on a trip, I recommend at least three memory cards for your camera, or if you're only using an iPhone, backup to either iCloud or iTunes every day.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Updates all the photos (cameraroll) in iCloud or is it just photo stream when you sync? I have 5000 photos in the camera but only 800 in the stream and I would like to save them all. How to do?

Plug your iPhone into your Mac and open iPhoto. Transfer the photos from the phone to your Mac.

I have 2 photo albums on my iPhone that i want to delete. One is called "Photo Library" the other is called "iPhonePics". I cannot delete any of the photos in either album. How do I delete the photos and/or the albums?

You can uncheck multiple songs by selecting all the songs you want to uncheck, then right-click and choose "uncheck selection". Also, make sure that you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos" on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings or the sync process will ignore your selections.
You can remove all the photos from your camera roll using Preview on your Mac. Connect your phone to your Mac, open Preview, go to File>Import from iPhone. When your photos appear in Preview, select the photos you want to delete, then click on the icon at the bottom showing the red circle with the diagonal line through it (see image below), then click Delete.
To remove photos from the Photo Stream album on your phone you'll have to either reset Photo Stream (deleting all the photos from iCloud) or turn off Photo Stream on your phone.

When you turn on photo stream on a device that is the source of photos, only the photos you take in the future will sync to the stream, not the photos currently in the camera roll.
When you turn on photo stream on a device or computer that will receive photos from other devices, only the photos that have been on the servers for the past 30 days will sync, all older photos have been deleted from the servers.
To sync camera roll photos that weren't part of photo stream, you need to sync them manually using itunes.

Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
(I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.

I am considering buying an iPad 3. I have an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. On the iMac I have many photos and work with iPhoto and Photoshop Elements on the computer. Can I interchange or transfer photos and other work from the iMac to the iPad? How?

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

<Edited By Host>

Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock
it. Contact them to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Apple does not unlock iPhones - wireless carrier has this responsibility.

HT201317 I have icloud and have 5000 photos on my phone can i delete them on my iphone

Please help I am so confused I have purchased a new iphone 5s and paid £70 for the storage. I have 5000 pictures and have icloud so can I delete them from my device?
Where will i find them if i do as they are of my little girl?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you want to delete the photos from your phone, you should first copy them to a computer or an online storage site such as Flickr or dropbox.

I had a iphone 4 and upgraded to a 5s, I backed up my photos to icloud on my 4 but now do not know how to access them now that I have the 5s. So I can't retreive my 400 pix from my old backup. Help!????

I just upgraded from an iphone 4 to 5a s, I backed up all my photos to the cloud with the 4 but now cannot access them with my 5s. Does anyone know how to do this? Help?

Did you restore the backup of your iPhone 4 to your iPhone 5? That would restore the camera roll photos along with app data, text messages, ringtones, apps and other purchased media, etc.

When I open iPhoto its asks me what photo library I want to use. I already have a photo library that i've been using for 2 years, where did it go? and why am I being asked now to choose a library or "create new" what happened to all my photos?

When I open iPhoto it asks me to choose a photo library. I already have a libary with photos and events in it that I've been using for 2 years. Where did it go? What happened to all my photos

We have no way of knowing what goes on on your machine. All we can tell is that your iPhoto library is missing and iPhoto can't find it. If you can't find then I the only thing you can do is restore from your Back Up.

Is it possible to have a window open for my library and the Itunes store so that I can toggle between the two? I want to check my library before I purchase songs to make sure that I don't already own them.

Is it possible to have a window open for my Itunes Library and Itunes store at the same time so that I can toggle back and forth between the two. I want to check my library before I buy songs to make sure that I don't duplicate.
Thanks!

No.

HT4890 i have an issue.. i have 2 photo streams on my iphone.

one has 360 photos and the other has 88. i recently had to get another one so i backed up to itunes and added more pictures thinking it would be all in one album but its not.. HELP,, has this happened to anyone? the ones that says 360 doesnt move from that number... how to combine or delete one of the albums?
camera roll 146
photo stream 88
photo library 360
photo stream 360
please help??

"photo stream" requires iPhoto 11.
iCloud set up - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/.
Click the apple / system preferences / iCloud - sign in with your iCloud Apple ID
If you have iPhoto 11, click the word "iPhoto" beside the apple and select "preferences", then go to the "photo stream" tab. Enable photo stream.
