IPhone 6, 6  photo direction 180 deg error

I have an iPhone 6+ and my wife has an iPhone 6.  On both phones, when using the built in camera app, the direction of the photo as reported in the metadata is 180 deg off.  For example, if I take a photo in the facing North the metadata is decoded as South by Lightroom.  A photo taken facing West is reported as East by Lightroom.  This error is present in both landscape and portrait orientation.
If I take a photo with my old iPhone 5S (currently used as an iPod) the compass direction as reported in Lightroom is correct.
Anyone else seeing this problem?

Update....It appears the problem started with iOS 8.  My images taken on my iPhone 5s after installing iOS 8 are also 180 deg out. Those taken with iOS 7x are correct.
I have reported this via feedback for the iPhone.

  • I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!

    I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk - I don't have any room left on my computer. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!  This is seriously frustrating!.
    Additionally, I'd like to be able to take the 2000+ photos out of iPhoto and put them on a disk in a folder. I have managed to export them to the hard disk but it's just plonked all 2000+ photos in a list - not ideal if I want to use it for anything else. And then I have to manually delete the photos from iPhoto. Is there not a quick and easy way of dealing with this? 
    Anyone got any bright ideas? Thanks for your help!

    I too would like to be able to do this. Just put them where i want the. IFTT a scripting app will put the images in dropbox for you , but its been pretty iffy.

  • IPhone 4S Photos directly to an external drive

    Does anyone know how to transfer iPhone 4S photos directly to a WD external hard drive without the need to first transfer to iPhoto?

    NOTE: I want to be very detailed on what I want to accomplish and what I have tried, please understand why the lengthy, very descriptive, and repetative message. This may even help someone else who may have the same problem looking for a solution.
    I tried dragging and dropping the files I have on my iPhone 4S directly onto the WD (Western Digital) external hard drive I have and it won't allow me. I get a a round/circular gray symbol with a diagnal line going across it. I know that when a green round symbol with a white plus sign appears the drag drop trick/feature works. I can however drag and drop documents from my desktop, Pages App and Keynote App but not from the iPhoto App to the external hard drive.
    When I plug in my iPhone 4S on my Macbook, instinctively the iPhoto App opens/launches and I can see all the pictures I have on my iPhone on the iPhoto App under the Device tool on the left side of the tool bar that also instinctively opens/launches/appears when my iPhone or even my Camera, or iPod is plugged in.
    The only option I know of and am allowed is to "Import" my photos (which is on the upper right hand side of the iPhoto App in a blue tab) and if I do that the picures WILL BE available on the iPhoto App. However although this would be a simple solution I don't want to do this because I have low space/memory. I suppose I could then delete the files but I feel it would be to much work and not as easy, especially knowing that I do have this option when working, for example, on a document using the desktop, Pages App or Keynote App.
    The thing is that I don't want to import my iPhone pictures onto the iPhoto App (I have low space/memory), I want to import them directly onto my WD (Western Digital) external hard drive.
    If this is happening with my iPhone I would imagen I would have the same thing happen (not being allowed to directly import the pictures to the external hard drive) when I plug in my camera or iPod so I would like to know how I can bypass the iPhoto App to directly transfer my images to the external hard drive.
    (I want it to be as easy as it is on a PC when any of these types of devices are plugged in. On my PC when I plug in my iPhone, iPod, Camera, CD with pictures, or even my USB I can simply access them on the "My Computer" program, once I click on the device (Camera, iphone, USB, etc... on the My Computer program) I have the option to copy or save or import my images to any folders or vice versa, I can save photos documents already on the PC onto the these devices (USB, CD, etc...). I want this option on my Macbook. How do I get this option?
    What I am thinking could work is:
    If there was a way to see any Devices (iPhones, iPods, etc...) under the Finder App tool bar where I can then directly drag and drop or export my iPhone pictures onto the external hard drive (if this is an option that would help transfer the images onto the WD external hard drive?). On the Finder App I CAN see the external hard drive, I can also see my Time Capsule but I can not see my iPhone.
    Dragging and Dropping is something that I have been able to do in the past (Before I got my WD external hard drive) when I want to put my pictures from the iPhoto App and documents onto, for example, a USB drive/Pin drive. I can also drag and drop iPhoto pictures when burning a CD.
    Why can't I do this drag and drop feature with the WD external hard drive?
    If anyone can help me or redirect me in any direction where I can find a solution I would really appreciate it.
    Thank you.

  • HT201302 The laptop I was using to upload photos from my iphone is no longer good and I want to use my desktop instead but it is displaying an error that the iphone has no photos in it. How do I start using my desktop to upload my photos from my iphone5?

    The laptop I was using to upload photos from my iphone is no longer good and I want to use my desktop instead but it is displaying an error that the iphone has no photos in it. How do I start using my desktop to upload my photos from my iphone5, is there any software I need to download?

    Photos on the phone in the DCIM folder are those located in the camera roll. Photos that are synced to the phone from the computer cannot be accessed in this manner. They are synced and the only way to manage them is to connect the phone, go to the photos tab and un-select the folders you want to remove or go into the folder photos are located in and remove the photos you no longer want to sync. Then sync the phone and the photos will be removed.

  • Why doesn't iPhone have the options to import photos directly in Windows 8 like in Windows 7?

    It used to be able to import photos directly into the same folder as the photos are synced under "Last Import" back in Windows 7. But now in windows 8, I have to use Dropbox to import photos, yet Dropbox doesn't have the options to erase photos already imported.
    Any solutions?

    Hi,
    I tried replicating your issue at my end on Safari v5.1.7 and when i navigated to http://www.bmc.org/cancer-center.htm > downloads > cancer support services newsletter , it prompts me to 'open', 'save' or 'cancel' the file.
    When i open it opens properly in Acrobat 9 Pro. And after saving it if I try to open with Reader X, it works perfectly fine with me.
    Try resetting safari, by clicking on the 'gear' icon at the top right corner i.e. tools > Reset safari. It will pop up a new window, if possible keep all the options checked and reset safari. Then retry opening the link and it should work fine.
    Let me know if that helped or not.
    Regards,

  • HT201328 after unlocking from ATT and resetting iphone 3gs I keep getting the same error message "could not activate phone" neither Apple Store Tech or ATT were able to fix this . Any ideas?? TKS Sandro

    after unlocking over the phone from ATT and resetting iphone 3gs I keep getting the same error message "could not activate phone" neither Apple Store Tech or ATT were able to fix this .
    Itunes displays a message saying "there is no SIM installed in the phone you're trying to activate" even if there is the same SIM that was working minutes before.
    The SIM works on a different phone I tested it.
    Any ideas?? TKS Sandro

    “Could Not Activate EDGE” error message Update ...
    Well it’s going on day 6 and still sporadic to no EDGE on my iPhone. At one time, it was thought to be a defective iPhone – since my partner’s iPhone works just fine.
    After over three hours on the land line with AT&T and Apple, I was sent to the local Apple store for a replacement. Of course, as soon as I walked into the Apple store my iPhone worked just fine. ;-( The local store replaced my iPhone and suggested I go home and activate the phone as a NEW iPhone, that way if there was a bug in my data it would not carry over to the new phone. Did that and well… still sporadic to no EDGE. By the way, I have the Big White “E” to the right of the 5 bars and AT&T .
    AT&T said last week they has “Software” issues in my area, but the CSR I talked to did not know what the issues were or if they were the cause of my problems. He did say they would call me back today to see how my iPhone was doing, but alas, no call back.
    When I’m next to my partner, trying to access the same feature, his iPhone is just so fast. Mine hangs up, draws out and finally I get the error message, “Could Not Activate EDGE”. I am updated to version “1.1.4(4A102)”. New (refurbished) iPhone direct from Apple.
    I remember reading a while back about some problems others had when they upgraded to from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. I never had those problems, but it sure looks like they may have started. Does anyone remember what the problems with 1.1.4 were, what was done if anything to correct them, and best of all any suggestions?
    By the way, this is Seattle, not some small – out of the way place where connection and signal strength is expected to be second rate. Also, I had full function of my iPhone from the day I bought it in June 2007, all the way up to Thursday March 20, at 2120.
    Thanks

  • I have an apple 3g, tried to update it to 4.2, but it wasnt successful, then they asked me to restore it .. to which im getting an error message of "the iphone could not be restored an unknown error has occured (error 1015), any solutions?

    i have an apple 3g, tried to upgrade it to a 4.2 version, (previously it was 4.1). it wasnt successful, the computer asked us to restore it to the version which was last operational, and while restoring an error message appeared "the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured

    "This error is caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple."

    Plug your iPhone into iTunes and update it to the latest supported version, which is 4.2.1.

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

  • "the iphone could not be restored an unknown error occurred (2)"

    Yesterday I connected my iPhone 4 to my Windows 7 laptop, and went through to install the latest security update for iPhone through iTunes. When it was installing the software update, the phone froaze, and then this happened:"the iphone could not be restored an unknown error occurred (2)"
    Now, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Bonjour and iTunes, to no avail. I have done the iPhone reboot method, and the phone will be identified as "iPhone" but not recognised as mine. iTunes states this phone is in recovery mode and I have tried numerous times to restore it.
    Windows doesn't detect the phone while this is happening. It will not restore and the error is still popping up. I have followed as many threads to rectify this but nothing seems to be working.
    I can resore it on my iMac but the reset date for the iPhone on this computer is six months old.
    Any suggestions?

    When you say you uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, did you follow the directions in this Apple support document exactly? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    That will make a difference on Windows computers. After that, try and reconnect and restore.

  • I plug my iphone 5s into my macbook pro, itunes says: The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1723).

    Every time I plug my iPhone 5s (32 GB) into my macbook pro, iTunes says: The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1723). And none of my recently bought songs or my ringtones will transfer to my iPhone. I have iOS 8.1.2. I have only had this iPhone for about a month and a half. A week ago when I plugged it in it would say something along the lines of " This iPhone cannot be synced because the Photo library is not set up. Please try again later." What does that even mean? And now it is saying that it can't sync because of an unknown error. Well, how do I fix this? I have not yet downloaded the Yosemite update because it got horrible reviews and everyone I've talked to said their computer has gotten extra slow because of it so I was wondering if I need to download Yosemite so my iPhone will sync. I have tried turning my computer on and off, quitting and reopening iTunes, restarting my iPhone, and nothing has worked. I would really like to be able to transfer my music and ringtones etc. onto my phone.
    Thanks you!

    You have told us you have iOS 8.1.2, and a non-current version of OS X   Do you also have an old iTunes?  Current is 12.0.1.  I'm quite certain iTunes 12 is required to sync with iOS 8.
    The current iPhoto version is 9.6.  You are probably behind there as well, and that likely caused the first "photo ..." error.  As you may know, iOS is changing its approach to managing photos in iOS 8, so I would imagine it would be important to be current with this application.

  • Is there a way to rotate mail 180 degs so the antenna will be in the clear when typing?

    Once you understand the iPhone 4's antennas - you can make things work better, maybe even better than any onther phone.  However when in low cellular data signal areas and using e-mail or browser app, you normally have the cellular antenna in the palm of your hand cause a drop in signal while typing.  If the phone would rotate the mail app 180 degs - then you could hold the phone upside down - allowing the antenna to be (on top) in the clear as you use the mail app.  My question is - is the a way or app that would allow you to do this?

    I am looking for the same thing for a different reason. I would like to be able to type with the iPhone upsidedown. That way the microphone would be pointed towards the speaker I am taking notes from and I could record at maximum level while typing. Is there a typing app that will work upsidedown? I'm not talking about rotating text, I mean the whole app. Or how about a change in the iOS that would just allow 180 rotation of any app? Is there a place to suggest this to Apple? I couldn't find it recently.

  • Mobile Me was my default email account, so if I did any emailing like trying to send a photo directly from iphoto it would send from the mobile me address.  Is there a way to set a different default email account now that mobile me is gone?

    We used Mobile Me for our default email.  So if you answered an ad from a site or tried to send a photo directly from iphoto, it would use the mobile me account. Now that its gone, can I set a different address as my default?

    WEll, MobileMe has been moved & still works in iCloud.
    Did you setrup an iCloud account?
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

  • Error duing iphone sync:  The iphone cannot be synced.  An unknown error occurred (-50).

    I am trying to Sync my 3GS with itunes, and I get the error message:  The iphone cannot be synced.  An unknown error occurred (-50).
    Latest rev of itunes installed.
    Any suggestions on a fix?

    I'm having the same issue.  After updating all iOS devices to iOS 6, then updating all software on my iMac to the latest versions (including iPhoto 9.4), everthing was working as it should.  I was able to sync all of my devices (New iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone4) with the iMac early this morning.
    Subsequently, I opened iPhoto for the first time since installing 9.4, a window popped up informing me that my photo library had to be converted to work with the iPhoto 9.4.  I clicked okay, and let the conversion process run its course.
    About ten minutes later, I attempted to once again sync my iPad with the iMac.  The sync process would run for a few seconds, then stop with a window popping up saying "The iPad cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1140)".  I then attempted to sync the iPod and my iPhone, with the same results.
    After consulting the discussion forums, it looked like lots of other users are encountering the same problem, and that it was somehow related to the new iPhoto.  Someone suggested turning off syncing photos from iPhoto, which I did.  With photo syncing turned off, the rest of the sync program now runs without a problem.
    I've submitted a bug report to Apple.  Hopefully, enough other users have done the same, and Apple will fix whatever it is that's causing the problem.
