Is it possible to rename photo in the "camera roll" OR reset the photo number in iphone 4s? (Clearly explained the situation)

Hi everyone, nice to meet you all. This is my first discussion starting in here and nice to meet you all. I used Android device before and this is my first apple mobile that I owned. I am using iphone 4s. (5.0.1)
I have search a lot but no answer that how can I rename the photo in the camera roll in iphone or in Windows 7.
What I want to do is:
I have IMG_0006, IMG_0007, IMG_0015, IMG_0016, IMG_0017, total 5 files.
I want to change the name that make their sequence will become IMG_0001, IMG_0002, IMG_0003, IMG_0004, IMG_0005 and I want the following picture will take place in IMG_0006. (This is just what I want but it never happened)
but seems that I can't rename them and I have tried that if I take 2 pictures after IMG_0017, but I delete them (which is delete IMG_0018 and IMG_0019), then take another new picture again, it will name as IMG_0020 instead of IMG_0018.
Questions:
1. Are there any methods to reset the photo number by deleting file under the "PhotoData" that we can see in iPhone Explorer?
OR
2. Are there any methods to rename the photo in the "camera roll" folder?
I have tried to rename the photo directly in iPhone Explorer but it will make the photo cannot be read in iphone.
3. Is it possible that I can rename them directly and rebuild the camera roll by deleting the Photos.sqlite under the PhotoData folder to solve the unreadable problem in iphone 4?
Thanks a lot to read all of the words above

Thanks for your quick reply. I think I have tried but I cannot.
There are no any options to let you choose "rename" in Windows 7 if you connect the iphone via USB
I have tried to rename the photo directly in iPhone Explorer but it will make the photo cannot be read in iphone and just got nothing to show on its screen until I rename it into the previos name again then the picture will show properly.
May be it can but I do not know how to rename them in Windows 7, could you please show me step by step?

Is it possible to delete photos on an iPhone?

Really easy to do on Android and Windows Phone but looks like it's not possible to delete photos on an iPhone except individually. You could do this on the original iPhone...
I've tried on the device, using a Mac and Windows but the file system is read only.
Thousands of articles on web and here and none explain how to do this simple task on ios7.

You can delete photos in the Camera Roll on your iPhone either individually on the phone or all at once by connecting to your computer.
To do this connect your phone to your computer and run whatever image capture application or camera app you have. You iPhone should be recognized as a camera and the app will allow you to copy photos to your computer and delete them from the iPhone.
To delete photos that were copied to the iPhone by syncing with your computer do another sync. But before clicking on Sync or Apply deselect all the albums you want to delete. When you click on .apply or sync the albums will be deleted.

What's the point of buying 200 gb storage if when I delete a photo from my iphone is cleared on all devices, I want the photos I take remain stored in the cloud and to make room on my iphone

Yes...I do not get it

How do you delete the images in the Iphone images album. Not the camera roll. There is an album called Iphone images and there is not a delete option

The same way you put them on the phone. Connect the phone to iTunes on your computer, click on the name of the iPhone, then the Photo tab. Uncheck the albums you don't want on the phone and click Sync.

Is it possible to transfer photos, files from iphone 5s to macbook pro via bluetooth?

Before I got the iphone 5s, I was using a Nokia phone. I was able to transfer photos, files from my Nokia phone to macbook pro via bluetooth connections. It was very simple and POSSIBLE (even though apple support staff said it was not possible to do so). My macbook pro does NOT need to be paired with Nokia phone as long as it can DISCOVER the nokia phone and vice versa.
Hence, after i got the iphone 5s recently, I'd expected both devices (iphone 5s and macbook pro) to communicate and connect via bluetooth as easily as Nokia phone. However, I was disappointed to find out the iphone 5s kept "searching" for discoverable device even though my macbook DISCOVERED the iphone!! Thus, I was NOT able to transfer any files from these two devices.
Any apple technical people care to explain why BOTH are apple products cant work? A Nokia phone and macbook can. Very strange, isn't it?

Althought,you can use bluetooth to transfer photos,files from iPhone to Macbook,However,it is so slowly,if you want to quickly copy photos/files from iPhone to Mac,you can use tools or software to help you,such as iStonsoft iPhone to Mac Transfer,This is a very professional tool,Hope this helps!

How do I get photos from the camera roll to a flash drive from my iphone

Is it possible to make other files besides camera roll?

Just wondering if you can add more categories to the photo page besides just camera roll.

If you use a Mac, create photo albums in iPhoto and they will sync to the iPhone (if you choose the option to sync photos on the Photos tab in iTunes). If you use Windows, organize your pics into subfolders within the folder you select on the Photos tab in iTunes as the source for syncing, and those subfolders will show up as albums on the iPhone.
You cannot reorganize images on the phone itself - organization is done on the computer and synced to the phone.

How do I transfer photos from my camera roll from my iPod 5 to my iphone 5c

Hi,
Sync your device using iTunes. In the Photos area of iTunes you should be able to restore them in your new device.

Camera Roll and Resetting Photo File Names

Because of the improved camera, I've just started using the iPhone as a reasonable substitute for carrying round a digital camera, but I've recently noticed that the file name counter keeps getting reset. There is no memory of what the last photo was called before the Camera Roll was emptied. This is a problem as I end up with loads of duplicate file names like IMG_0001.JPG, etc. Surely there must be a way of avoiding this happening.

Camera roll is your for keeps photo album. Photo stream is meant to be temporary to give you time to download the photos to your other devices is you want to.

Is it possible to transfer photos from (non-iPhone) camera to iPad?

I need a backup for my Sony point-and-shoot while travelling, but don't want to lug my MBP along just to download photos to it. Is there any way (without Wi-Fi or internet connection) to connect my camera to the iPad and transfer photos?

There is the camera connection kit (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC531ZM/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE&mco=MjE4ODE2ODk) which comes with an SD card reader and a USB to micro-usb cable for connection to a camera for direct transfer of photos (I have seen some people say that it doesn't work with their camera so I can't guarantee that it will work with yours).
As it's a Sony I assume that it uses sony memory stick and not SD cards ? Some people have been able to use other card readers with the kit, but generally only powered readers work with it (and then not all of them) as the iPad does not provide enough power to the kit for most non-powered ones to work. If the camera has a micro-usb socket then you should be able to use that for direct transfer.

HT1766 How do I find my back-up files, and what is the likelihood I will find the contents of camera roll that I took on a new iphone 4S before plugging it into my laptop, registering it & then accidentally opting for the restore settings option which of

any help with this would be mucgh appreciated - i think I need to look at my back-up files, but don't know where to find them in Itunes?

If you haven't done a backup of your phone as suggested by the link, then your pics are gone. If you do have a backup then you can restore to it.

HT201317 Can anyone tell me if it's possible to retrieve photos from my iphone4 that has been taken more than 30 days ago on to my pc?

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to retrieve photos from my iPhone 4 that I took more than 30 days ago on to my pc?

I had issues in 10.4.7 as well as 10.4.8.
My problems occurred at the beginning of 10.4.8, then many users brought light to me using WEP, which was not working that great. I changed my connections to WPA2 and my problem has disappeared. If my problem didn't resolve the way it did, I would have mentioned it the next time I visited an apple store.
The bottom line is that assumptions, complaining, and self diagnostics don't get many people very far and bringing the problem to apple helps them know the incidence of this problem, and helps them develop a reliable solution.
Though some users have reported the "cold shoulder" when reporting Airport problems to apple... I hope you weren't one of them.

Am I able to retrieve photos from an iPhone after it has been restored?

Is it possible to retrieve photos from an iPhone 5s after it has been restored? I had taken photos on my new iPhone 5s prior to restoring the previous settings and I never saved these photos. When I restored my phone from the old backup, my new photos were gone. I don't think they were saved to iCloud either.

Without a backup with the photos on it, you will not be able to recover them.

HT4847 i deleted some photos from my camera roll on ipad by mistake trying to get more icloud storage. can i get them back?

I was trying to free up icloud storage in order to back up my iphone 5 using my ipad. I mistakenly deleted some photos from my camera roll and they were deleted from both iphone and ipad photo albums. Can I retrieve them somehow or are they gone forever? Now I read that doesn't help to free up space...not sure what does free up space so I can back up my phone again. Help!

Are you sure you deleted them from your camera roll and not from photo stream.
