IPad Photo App Photo Album

On the iPhone the Photo app has a Camera Roll album and a Photo Library album. Basically the Photo Library album contains the images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac and the Camera Roll contains iPhone local images. That is what one might expect.
However, the iPad 2 does not have a Photo Library. It has the Camera Roll album similar to the iPhone and a Photo album. In contrast to the iPhone Photo Library, the iPad 2 Photo album contains the images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac PLUS the images from the iPad 2 Camera Roll album.
Anyone know why?
Does anyone else see the same thing on their iPad 2?
Anyone know how to get a Photo Library on the iPad 2 that contains only images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac?
Thanks.
Mike

The Photos album on my iPad 2 IOS 5 contains links to Camera Roll images as well as those photos sync'd with iTunes (i.e., it shows ALL images).
ITunes on my MBA has 3 albums: Last Import, Last 12 months, & Photo Library. These same albums are on my iPhone; however, my iPad 2 IOS 5 does not have the "Photo Library" album.
The "Photo Library" shows just the iTunes images from iPhoto. I see this album on the iPhone 4 IOS 5, but do not have it on the iPad 2 IOS 5. Thus the iPad 2 does not give me an album that contains just the iTunes iPhoto images.
As an aside, the iPhone 4 IOS 5 does not have the "Photos" album only the "Photo Library" - a much more useful arrangement for me.
Could you please post a screenshot of the album list on an iPad 2 IOS 5 that shows tha albums? None of the iPad 2's I have looked at have the "Photo Library" album.
Thanks
Mike

IPhone Photos App Photo Library has no Delete button

iPhone 4S iOS 6.1.3 Photos App Photo Library Album Pictures have no Delete button in the bottom right bottom corner like found in Camera Roll Album Pictures. How do I delete obsolescent photos on the iPhone Photo Library Album without sync deleting it on my computer's iPhoto and other sync devices?
Hurry—only 60.6 MB Available!

The same exact thing happened to me but on IOS7. What i did was take a very long video that took up my entire hardrive. That over writes that photo because the iphone thinks its already deleted and techinically its not.

IOS 8 Photos App - Events Album Sort Order is Screwed

Hi,
When I sync my photos (that are grouped into Events) from my Mac iPhoto Library, to my iPhone and view them in the iOS 8 Photos App, all the events are no longer sorted in order - they used to be sorted chronologically in 7.1.
To try and find the event photos that you are looking for is now impossible.
Does any one known how to fix this or is it a regression bug that they have introduced with iOS 8?

This is such a cluster-f*ck. I was stunned when I found the change to iOS 8 brought this mixed up order of my events from my iMac's iPhoto. Having them in Events by month/year was the only way I could keep a reasonable handle on where everything is. This is completely unacceptable from Apple.
Then again, it seems from what I read around the Internet, those of us using iPhoto as our managing software AND using it to sync pics to our i-devices are a clear and dwindling minority. Maybe Apple just didn't think it important enough to bother, but they need to fix this.
What would have been completely helpful and awesome with iOS 8 would be the importing of keywords (and descriptions, but at least keywords) for those of us syncing from iPhoto. I can understand why Apple wouldn't have done so years ago (memory onboard our i-devices), but today there's no reason for this. Those tiny, tiny bits of data should come over with the photos to make them searchable by keyword. I'd care less about the Events being out of order if I could search by keyword on my iPhone or iPad.
Come on Apple... we have enough storage space to make this happen.

Importing photos from an external hard drive to Photos app as albums

it is driving me nut. I have spent hours searching for an answer, but they are all about iphoto or aperture, which I dont have on my newly bought (April 2015) macbook pro.
I have 5GB photos on an external drive; they are in different folders named after events (2005.4.13bday, 2006.3.3hiking..etc).
How do I import them to Photos as albums that have the same names as folders?
I tried dragging them directly into the app, but they are not imported as albums; I won't have any clue what these photos are, only dates.
I tried File/import, but it doesn't allow me to as it can never finishing loading the photos (stops at 5000 photos).
Please help. much appreciated.

Re-start the Import. When it comes to the first duplicate it will ask you if you want to import or ignore the duplicate. In the same dialogue you'll have the opportunity to apply that decision to all duplicates.

No photo titles AT ALL in Photos app shared albums

Is there some hidden setting to turn on the photo titles?

Until Photos called Titles 'titles', anyone I ever spoke to called the filename the title. My mistake in not understanding that Photos ignores the photo filename entirely and 'titles' all the photos as 'Untitled' in fuzzy light grey text, only visible when hovering over the offending item, and not permanently in a useful way.
The filenames are useless in the get info window. If you deliberately or accidentally scroll the thumbnail browser, the get info panel is entirely independent of the app interface and you have absolutely no idea to which image the get info refers to. It's terrible design.
I just want to see the filename under the photo. It's not much to ask. I can't actually see the point of the app, it's like a crappy, feature limited bad imitation of iPhoto - an Apple app that already does everything Photos does, but much better.

Camera Roll is not the same in Camera app vs Photos app ???

iPhone 4S issue...
I just got a new iPhone 4S. Restored from a 3GS backup.
I noticed yesterday that some of the photos that I took with the built-in Camera app aren't showing in the Camera Roll. Specifically, the last 3 pictures that I took plus a couple three other older ones. But it only happens when I view the Camera Roll through the Camera app. Using the Photos app I can see all the photos I've taken.
- When viewed from the Photos app, the "Albums" list says "Camera Roll (254)" and all photos show up.
- When I open the Camera app and click on the picture thumbnail in the bottom left and it opens the Camera Roll it says "248 of 248" at the top of the screen and I can't see my last three photos plus a couple more other older ones. They're not in the thumbnail index and I can't swipe to them from the individual photo display. Again, this is when viewing the Roll from the Camera app.
- I have no other Albums but "Camera Roll". None of the photos have been edited either.
I called Apple support and they instructed me to reboot my iPhone. This didn't change much except now the last "missing" photo shows up as the small thumbnail in the lower left of the Camera screen. But when I click to view the Camera Roll, it's still nowhere to be found (along with the other "missing" ones). The Photos app still shows all of them just fine.
What the heck is going on? It sounds like a bug to me... the Camera app and the Photos app should be pulling the same data, right?
Apple support suggested that I connect it to my Mac and do a Restore. Even if this works, it doesn't give me much confidence that it won't happen again as it seems like a bug. Should I report it?
Ben

im also having a problem on my iPhone 4 that just started today, about 100 or so photos and videos just completely disappeared.. basically it shows the last 4-5 photos that i took, and then the first 50 or so.. everything in between is gone.
when i view from the camera vs the photos app the last 4-5 differ.. so who knows *** is going on...
but if you download a program called iExplorer you can view and download everything, as all the files are still there

How to import the photos from the Photos tab in the Photos app in iOS 7?

I use iPhone 4 with iOS 7. I have done the following steps:
Connected my iPhone to my Mac.
Opened iPhoto.
Clicked on my iPhone in the left sidebar.
Clicked the blue button, offering to import X photos.
I chose to delete the photos from my iPhone, when I was prompted at the end of the import.
However, I noticed the following - there were photos, that was not offered for an import. Now, on my iPhone when I open the Photos app and go to albums my Camera Roll album is empty, but when I go to Photos App -> Photos I see the photos I imported, as well as many many photos that were not imported, but are also not in the Camera Roll album (it's empty, as noted). So:
1. How do I get the photos from Photos app -> Photos tab?
2. How do I delete them from there when I have them.
One more thing - isn't it annoying that one has to delete the same photo from so many places -> Camera Roll Album, My Photo Stream. Photos Tab. I mean - if I take a picture by mistake, shouldn't it be possible to just delete it from one place and never see it again?

It seems I was wrong. I just had missed seeing the photos in iPhoto. Sorry for the confusion.

Photos App in iOS --- photo order incorrect

iOS 6, Photos App, Photo order under Event, Landscape first, and than Portrait.
Under Landscape are all in time sequence, under Portrait also in time sequence. But it shows Landscape first, Portrait later
Photo are synced via MAC / iPhoto

I think you can't change the name I the moments. It's grouped by the iOS. You can choose photos and create albums though.

How can I import into iPhoto, from my iPad, albums created on the iPad using Photos App ?

I take about 300 photos a day using my iPad, as i'm filming to help keep continuity.
I then create albums under the scene number from some of the photos taken. Eventually i will build up all of the scene numbers in the script.
I want to import into iPhoto all of these albums.
How can this be done?
For some reason, when i plug my iPad into the laptop, it won't import screen grabs or all of the photos.
So the fact i have tried to be super organised, the apple software is now letting me down !
Can albums created in the iPad now be imported into iPhoto as albums to keep my organisation ?
Thanks.

That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
With the new Photo app later this year the integration between IOS and the Mac will be much greater

I have recently purchased an IPad Air. This comes with "IPhoto" as well as it's usual photo App. I do not have a Mac, instead I am syncing it to my windows PC. Is there any way of actually moving a picture around, (arranging photos in a single album)

I have recently purchased an IPad Air. This comes with "IPhoto" as well as it's usual photo App. I do not have a Mac, instead I am syncing it to my windows PC. Is there any way of actually moving a picture around, (arranging photos in a single album), in either of these apps???? They claim to be able to "Organize" or "arrange" Photos, but for the life of me I can't figure out how......could you recommend any apps that actually allow someone to move individual photos around on an IOS Device.

No, reordering within folders and albums is not supported. the yare arranged automatically by date. I found this, but I have not used any of the apps besides iPhone. You might check the descriptions to see if they do what you need.

Photo app on ipad randomly switches to photos not in the album

I added a new album of photos from my pc to my itunes to use as a slideshow to showcase specific photots. It is the oddest thing, part way through the slideshow it will randomly pull photos not included in the album and show them in the slideshow. Has anyone else encountered this or know why the ipad photo app might be doing this?

Unfortunately, photo stream on a PC is iffy at best. Many people have problems getting it to work properly, including myself. A work around would be to use an app like PhotoSync on your PC, which can send photos wirelessly to the camera roll on any of your iOS devices on the same wifi network. Once in the camera roll, you iOS device will be added to your photo stream.

Albums in Aperture 3 not showing upon IPhone/IPad "Photos" App

Am I missing a setting?
Thanks Mark

What happens if you select the Photos icon in the Library tab of the Inspector?

How do i delete "All Imported" pictures under "Album" under Photo App in iPad 2?

hi, i now have many photos in the All Imported folder under Album in Photo App in my iPad 2. I don't seem to have a way either in Ipad 2 or in iTunes to DELETE / REMOVE these pictures?
can someone let me know how?

Yes, delete all the apps currently in iTunes, then transfer all the apps currently on the iPad back into iTunes. Of course it will take some time to sync the apps back into iTunes, but it satisfies your desire to remove all apps from iTunes that are not on your iPad without the need to laboriously note what is and is not there. In fact as a bonus after removing all the apps from iTunes you could open the ..\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications folder and delete any remaining orphaned files that might still be there, before you transfer purchases.

IPad Air iOS8.0.2. I used the photos app to edit my photos and created a new album for them. When I transfer my photos to my PC via cable (not allowed to use cloud services by my boss) i can only transfer the unedited versions. Any tips? Thanks!

iPad Air iOS8.0.2. I used the photos app to edit my photos and created a new album for them. When I transfer my photos to my PC via cable (not allowed to use cloud services by my boss) I cannot choose this edited album, only transfer the unedited versions. Any tips? Thanks!

Hi Anjohi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've edited photos on your iPad and only see the original version when you import them to your computer, the tips in this article may help:
iOS: Edited photos show original photo after import or in other apps
All the best,
