Is it possible for photos to be saved without knowledge

Today I was looking through my camera roll and between taking a picture of my dinner yesterday night and some pics before sleeping the same day, there are 40 photos that have been inserted into my cameral roll between these two sets of photos.
I had an irrational fear that somebody elses photos had been saved to my phone unintentionally due to a bug in photostream or similar, but then again I have photostream turned off.
The pictures are of varying quality (quite low) and seem to be tourism photos. E.g. ski resort, bars and ocean cruises interseded with lots of photos of bars, restaurants...
Can anyone explain this? It seems like a potential security issue. I've never heard of photos being able to download themselves onto my phone without permission, nor did a google search pull up anything.
I know for sure it couldn't have been me to downloaded those pics, because I hadn't used the iPhone at all today...

Sorry that isn't possible.

  • Can I use icloud as a storage for photos from my PC without pushing all of them to my iphone?

    I thought the cloud could be a backup to my PC (files, pics, itunes...) that I could access from my iphone.  If my pics are pushed to my phone, my memory will be more than maxed out.  Same with itunes.  I would like to switch the tunes on my phone sometimes. 
    Am I expecting too much from my cloud!?

    No.
    iCloud isn't like our old iDisk. It's more about connecting muliple devices to the same shared data.

  • Photo Booth start up without a videowindow

    Does anybody know how it is possible that Photo Booth start up without a video window and cause of that i can't take pictures or video's. Videochat works normaly. I deleted com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist, but that didn't help. MB details: MB white (Nov 2006, May 2007), OS X 10.4.11. Kind Regards Nina.

    Welcome to  Discussions, Nina
    If your 10.4.11 Mac's Mac OS X Maintenance is not up-to-date, do it now and see if your problem goes away.
    (For other readers, my 10.5.x Mac runs the Chrons automatically whenever needed as soon as it wakes from sleep. However, I must force the chrons on my 10.3.x and 10.4.x Macs unless they are kept awake 24 hours a day.)
    If Maintenance is not your problem, it seems to me that you need to reinstall Photo Booth. There are three ways to do this in order of how easy they are to accomplish:
    (0) Copy from your backup disk (if you backup your system or have more than one 10.4.11 Mac)
    (1) Reinstall all Bundled Software that came with your Mac. If you need help,
      see page 51 of the User Guide that came with your MacBook.
    (2) If you do not want to reinstall ALL bundled software, you can use Pacifist to install only the Photo Booth app.

    If you were signed into iCloud and had Photo Stream enabled then yes.
    You can retrieve the last 30 days of photos from your computer or another iOS device.
    Photo Stream only holds 30 days of photos on the server. Anything older than that will be lost unless you transfered them to your computer or you backed them up.
    On a PC with Windows Vista, 7 or 8 install iCloud COntrol Panel: iCloud Control Panel
    On a OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later: System Preferences > iCloud

    Hello guys! How do I get my photo back after I restored my iphone5??? Ihave never did any backup or logged in iCloud before. Is it possible for me to get them back?? I use " find my iphone" and accidentally locked my iphone then I have to restore it to unlock it.

    If you never backed them up, where do you suppose you can restore them from?

  • Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's

    Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's

    You are asking two different questiions:
    1. What's a good photo editor? Answer to that here is probably obvious.
    2. What's a good desktop publishing/page layout program for creating PDF files for production? Answer, not PSE. It's a photo editor, not a page layout program.

  • Is it possible for deleted photos to randomly appear on photo stream?

    So I had a photo on my iphone 4s back in the spring, and I deleted it, but then last night it randomly showed up on my photo stream on my new 5s  when I know for a fact that it hasn't been there since I accidently deleted it off my phone back in the spring. Is this possible for it to happen through iCloud? So I know I'm not crazy.

    No, the iPod Touch cannot get a virus by visiting a website. There are no viruses that affect the iPod.

    You can drag and drop (this will result in a compressed JPG) or hold the alt key and drag and drop (this will copy the original). You can also select the pictures and choose Export from the File menu.

  • Is it possible for a iPod touch to get a virus when downloading free games off the internet? If yes, is there an antivirus program to protect the ipod. and can some of the current apps be saved from the virus damage?

    I had one game permanently just stop working, it usually does crash, but that last time it just went bad, I don't know the reason, I tried powering off iPod, relaunching game, but the game never worked again. I think it corrupted its own save file or some of its own data.
    Have you tried another game or app, do those work? If they do, then I guess you know where the problem lies, but if they all stop working, then what about apps, can apps launch?
    Lastly, apps from the app store are checked by Apple, so they are clean.

  • I lost my iPhone and I was hoping that my photos were being saved to iCloud, but I can't find them anywhere. I read that iCloud saves them for thirty days, but where?

    I lost my iPhone and I was hoping that my photos were being saved to iCloud, but I can't find them anywhere. I read that iCloud saves them for thirty days, but where?

    You are referring to Photo Stream. Photo Stream syncs the photos taken with your device to all of your device.
    It's not a photo storage service, so photos are deleted 30 days after being added to Photo Stream. You can't access to your Photo Stream photos from http://www.icloud.com, but only from an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (using the Photos app), Mac (using iPhoto '11 or Aperture 3 with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion) or PC (with iCloud Control Panel).
    In all of these devices, you have the option of copying them to the device, so they will be kept after 30 days

  • Is it possible to "partition" Iphone or Ipad when syncing?  What I would like to do is set up Itunes to use say 15GB for photos 15GB for music and 15 GB for video.  Any help would be appreciated. Thx

    I am using a Widows 7 PC with the latest Itunes.  I would like to alot hard disc space on my 64GB Ipad2 as follows  15GB for music, 15GB for Video and 15GB for photos. I would then like Itunes to autofill from my PC. Can this be done? The same question also applies to my Iphone4. Thanks in advance

    To my knowledge the iPod can only be used as a secondary monitor since you have to boot up the Mac and turn on the secondary display. You would still need a KB and pointing device for the Mac
    However, you can log into the Mini from an iOS device like an iPad using app like LogMeIn, GoTo MyPC or TeamViewer on both the Mac and the iPad. You use the touch screen on the iPad for all control of the Mac.
    As you said,that would be tedious for a lot of typing but you could use a BT keyboard for the iPad.

  • Need help with adjusting size for photos in my website

    Wow it's super to know about adobe forum which i never thought existed, i have been to the adobe site several times befor but never noticed there is a forum
    Ok i have few issues would like some help if possible.
    I have a website for public holidays and festivals and i have been really stressed in the ways i am adding the photos which i am buying from fotolia. First in my featured images the screen is very wide and slim...so i am really having hard time with adjusting the photos so they would fit in a way and show the best part of the photo in the screen, once the featured image is clicked on then their is no problem since it opens up in the full size. Is their a speacial tool in adope (i have cs4) which deals with images in this aspect? Secondly, before i was downloading the image with the regular size in which i bought them (around 3000 px) but that significantly slowed my webiste and i had to resize them into around 500 px, but now the image is small. what is the way around that, is there a feature where i can keep the photo big size with high resolution and little px. I see many big nice resolution photos but very small in size. i have just purchased a lot of photos that i would be posting soon and would like to do them right from the start.
    I don't know if i explain the situation right in words but you can take a look here, most photos for the posts are on the main page, please take a look and tell me how i should revise or make better for my photos in the featured images.
    I have very little experiance in photoshop so i made a very simple logo, but is there a tool that is speacialy designed to help make it easy doing a professional logo?
    Any comments, hints or help would be highly appreciated
    Hmmm one more thing....how do i add a pic for my profile? i don't see anywhere i can do so

    You should use the crop tool to crop your images. You should never squish your images, it really looks unprofessional:
    For your problem with saving images, you can optimize your images for web using the "Save for Web…" menu option:
    Make sure that you save your images at the dimension that you want them to display on your website (It looks like all your images in the blog are 620px wide, go with that).
    As for your logo, you can make them in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I would reccomend making yours in the latter. Here are some tutorials on logo creation: http://ibrandstudio.com/tutorials/46-adobe-illustrator-tutorials-logo-design

  • HT1338 What is the best online storage for photos. Specifically one that allows the original image quality to be downloaded should your hard storage goes belly up

    What is the best online storage for photos. Specifically one that allows the original image quality to be downloaded should your hard storage goes belly up

    I'd put them on an external hard drive(s) and burn them to a DVD as well (at least 2 - 3 copies on different drives/media); I prefer having control and a local solution instead of relying on a server and the possibility of someone (who shouldn't be)  downloading my work.
