Iphone 4s ran out of space after taking one photo from lock screen and deleted whole photo album. Can I recover?

My phone is running 6.0.1. I took one photo from the lock screen by sliding up the camera button.  It was a little blurry so I tried again and the iphone 4s said it couldn't because the phone was out of space. 
After shutting the phone off and turning it back, put in the passcode and checked my photos and they were all gone.  Usage says I only have 150mb left on the 16gb phone it says zero photos and zero videos. I only have 10 applications and 606 songs.  It seems the photos are still on the device as the space is being used but i cant access them. Is very puzzleing...Where did they go and can I recover them? Any idea or suggestions will help. Thanks

I i backup from current state would it not backup without the photos. Maybe I should just restore from the last backup posible and this should have all photos until then. But before i restore from backup I wish i could just access the photos. I don't understand in the first place how they all deleted, and secondly why iphone still recognizes the space being used.  This is such a glitch, which is very frustrating.  i wish someone at apple can give me more insight....

  • Have synced all photos from pc. how to delete unwanted photos on  iphone?

    i did not realise i was syncing all photos in my pc to my iphone. there is a lot of junk photos. but i cannot see how to delete them off my iphone. help please

    This is the reason.
    Photos in your iPhone's camera roll are not included with the iTunes sync process except for being included with your iPhone's backup, which is created and updated by iTunes as the first step during the sync process.
    Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process, which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences are not transferred to your iPhone's camera roll.
    Photos in your iPhone's camera roll are photos that were captured by your iPhone, or photos saved from a received email or from a website. Photos in your iPhone's camera roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    With a Mac, this can be done with iPhoto if you use iPhoto for importing photos from a digital camera and for photo storage and management on your Mac, or with the Image Capture application located in your Applications folder. Both include an option to delete the photos from your iPhone's camera roll after the import process is complete. If you don't want to save these photos, you can delete the photos from iPhoto or from your designated location where the imported photos are saved if you use the Image Capture application for the import.

  • My iphone 4s ran out of storage after syncing to my laptop

    Hi everyone!
    Please help me.  Before I synced my ipad3 to my laptop, i still have available storage.  Now its totally nothing.
    Also, almost all of my apps shuts down just seconds after I begin to use them.  I cannot understand what is happening. 
    Could it be the syncing, or the ios latest update.
    Thank you in advance.

    Each update should be expected to use slightly more storage than its predecessor.
    But regardless, it sounds like you need to remove a considerable amount from your iPhone.
    Consider clearing stuff.  Perhaps in the future consider using Autofill described here:

  • IPhone 5s camera app won't open and crashes from lock screen and control menu

    Hello, I recntly got a Black iPhone 5s 16gb and it was working fine. Then sudenly the camera app started crashing after i took photos. Soon later the camera app wont open at all and if i try opening from the lockscreen the phone just reboots. Ive tried just resetting all settings just off the phone and nothing happened, so i decided to restore my iPhone to factory settings and still had no luck. I also had a problem with the flashlight it stopped working aswell (went gray on control menu) and all flashlight apps wont even. I also found out that my snapcat front camera (selfie camera works) and there is no 'swap button.
    This is the second time Ive been suffering from a camera issue the first one was ery similar the shutter wouldnt open because there was no memory, but now ive got 9.1GB free so this cant be the problem.  Other reviews i have read state that the phone has a hardwear issue and need to be replaced.

    FIX FOR REAR CAMERA AND FLASHLIGHT!!!
    I also had the same flash and rear camera problems as everyone else but I figured it was a software problem.
    To fix the flash/flashlight, simply download the flashlight app. The one everyone used before iOS 7. The flash should work immediately.
    To fix the rear camera go to Settings > General > Restrictions. Enable restrictions and turn the Camera off, then take the restriction off. Check your camera, it should work immediately.
    Hope this answers a lot of questions and saves a bunch of money due to Apple's failures.
    Cheers,
    Tim

  • My touch screen on my iPhone is not working correctly. I touch one part of the screen and another part responds. Is the there any way to solve this problem?

    My touch screen screen is not working properly.  I touch one App or icon and an different App/icon opens.  It is an ultra sensitive touch screen, any idea on how to solve this issue?

    Yes!  Stop using the charger!  My husband noticed it was worse when plugged in. One apple guy told me "restore" ... I did all that and it did not help. After I stopped using the charger, it stopped messing up. I used my husband's charger and all is well. 
    Later, an apple employee told me to bring in the charger for a trade in, because they had a recall on some of them.
    I haven't traded it yet, but I plan on it.
    Good luck!  Let me know!

  • Taking a picture from lock screen automatically unlocks phone?

    I noticed that when you bring up the camera to take a picture from the lock screen it automatically unlocks the phone without having to put in the number code. Is this just a tech. fluke or is there some way to avoid this (in case a phone is stolen, etc)

    your right - that works! not sure why it was doing that before...thanks!

  • After downloading photos from a camera, and deleting them from the device, "iPhoto Quit Unexpectedly", photos were deleted from camera

    Does anyone have any suggestions to find these photos?  Can't believe they were deleted from camera, but are not in "Last Import".

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • Ran out of space on install, how to finish?

    I ran out of space when doing the final install on CS6, and most programs run fine but not indesign. how do I do that final piece (i got rid of a bunch of stuff and have space now) without going through everything again? I restarted and can't find the error report now....am on a mac.

    I  have the Adobe Download Assistant on my desktop, but that seems to just want to have me redownload everything. I opened Air Applicatiton Installer and it wants me to select an installation package, but the only package I see is the Download Assistant. I tried selecting Indesign6 but it won't let me select anything....

  • [Unsolved] iOS 8 Exchange Emails read on other devices do not clear out from Lock Screen

    Creating this thread again since the last one got marked 'solved' automatically although no solution was found.
    My Google Apps (Exchange) emails on the lock screen are not disappearing when I read them on other devices (eg. my iPad or Mac). On iOS 7 this used to work very consistently for me, that is, when I received an email on 3 devices and read it on one of them, the email would instantly be marked as read on the other devices and the notifications would be cleared out.
    Furthermore, if I slide the notification of a read email on the lock screen and delete it, it has no effect on the server. So this is certainly a bug.
    PS: Also tried Push email notifications with iCloud mail, same problem. For iCloud, even the icon badge count is not updated.

    Nope.  Mine is an iPhone 5 that has Exchange, Gmail and Hotmail accounts on it.  All three email clients worked perfectly on iOS 6 and 7 in terms of appearing on and disappearing from the lock screen, but my experience with iOS 8 has been horrible.  As to this issue in particular, not only are items not disappearing from the lock screen, but even when I changed the setting to show only 1 message on the lock screen (just so I would know if I have any new email), every email I get nevertheless still appears on the lock screen ?!?!  I agree with t87 that iOS has been a regression and, to my mind, a big one at that (not just limited to this issue).  The mantra of "it just works" does not hold true, at least in my experience.

  • Time Machine:The backup disk ran out of space unexpectedly. .....

    Hi,
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion when it was released and yesterday I began getting this notice from Time Machine:
    "The backup disk ran out of space unexpectedly. Time Machine will try to make more space available by removing expired backups during the next scheduled backup."
    I have a one terra external hard drive with exclusively Time Machine.  It says it has 3.4 gigabytes available, but isn't deleting old backups and making room for new, like before.  I tried the "encrypting" solution, but it still keeps on giving me this message.  Should I erase and format?  If so, what option should I chose to format?
    My Hard Drive has 240 gigabytes, so 1Tb should be more than enough.
    Thank you!
    Gloria

    SuperDuper and Time Machine are two completely different backup utilities. If you want something like what SuperDuper does then don't use Time Machine. You have many other options that won't use up all the space on your backup drive:
    Backup Software Recommendations
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    SuperDuper!
    Synk Pro
    Tri-Backup
    Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore.  Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
    Do the following to erase your drive:
    Erase a Drive
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.

  • I backup to an external hdd with Time Machine, when it ran out of space it did not delete old backups, now my internal hdd says its full when before it had heaps of space. I have searched for extra files but cant find any. Can anyone help, please.

    I backup to an external hdd with Time Machine, when it ran out of space it did not delete old backups, now my internal hdd says its full when before it had heaps of space. I have searched for extra files but cant find any. Can anyone help, please.

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight as described here. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can also use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • I ran out of space on my icloud so my phone could no longer back up. I have now deleted lots from my phone, how can I get icloud to recognize this so it will complete a back up?

    I ran out of space on my icloud so my phone could no longer back up. I have now deleted lots from my phone, how can I get icloud to recognize this so it will complete a back up.

    A. Have you gone in to 'manage your iCloud?', and have you rebooted your iPhone. I think the idea is to delete yor previous backups and start with a new one.

  • The backup volume ran out of space unexpectedly!?!?

    I have been backing up all my data to a 100GB HD for 9 months with absolutely no problem, until today it popped up and say
    "The backup volume ran out of space unexpectedly. Time Machine will try to make more space available by removing expired backups during the next scheduled backup."
    I still have 2.6 GB space available and the backup went on as usual, except after "preparing", the xxMB out of xxMB change together. I rebooted my macbook and same thing happened again.
    Is there anything I can do? I thought TM would delete my old back ups in order to make some space for my latest ones.
    Many thanks!

    Yes, usually it does. The "unexpected" part is not usual.
    First, is there other data on the TM disk? If so, is it in the same partition?
    Second, it sounds like TM may be trying to do a full backup (everything on your system). Have you had any of the following: Hardware repairs (if so, what?); done a full restore; gone more than a few days without a successful backup?
    Third, how old is your oldest backup?
    And there may be better messages in your logs. Download the +Time Machine Buddy+ widget. It shows the messages from your logs for one TM backup run at a time, in a small window. If you see something there that seems suspicious, copy and post the messages here (be sure to get them all, as sometimes they overflow the small window).
