Lost Photos in sync

I was syncing my daughter's ipod touch 4th generation to the itunes account and her photos are gone. I have not disconnected. Is there anyway to revert the sync? Or are they somewhere on the computer? (They aren't in the photo library)

Well it's a newer iMac, but it's one I've been using for about a year. I had backed up my old 3G on it, but right before I plugged my new phone in to get me apps, I had downloaded the newest version of iTunes.
It was just a white screen and had that question on it. With two selection options, and then under the back up option was a drop down to choose which back up to use. No warning and no other dialog box opened after I clicked it either... reference the image in the link below.

  • Lost photos after syncing iphone 4 for the first time

    I just connected my iphone4 to my pc for the first time and now my pictures are all gone (on both computer and phone). Any way to get them back?

    Sounds like you performed a sync to an empty Outlook, correct? You never want to sync to an empty application. Doing so will erase the data on your phone. Before you do anything else, put one unique contact, calendar & note entry in Outlook.
    As to restoring your lost data, the key question is have you performed a sync since the sync that erased your data? If not, restoring from backup will restore the data. If you have synced since that initial sync, your data is gone. So, if you have not synced, do this: First disable auto-sync in iTunes>Preferences>Devices(under the edit menu if using Windows). Connect your phone, right-click in the device pane & select "Reset Warnings". Right-click again and select "Restore from Backup". If prompted to create another backup, decline. When the restore completes, you must then sync to restore your iTunes content. You'll get a popup regarding your contacts, etc., asking to "Merge" or "Replace". Select "Merge".

  • Lost photos while syncing my new phone

    I have a new iphone, plugged it into the computer to sync and selected my iPhone but it has updated it with my old iPhone details. Is there any way of getting back what was on my new iPhone? I had pictures I had not backed up and they have now gone and been replaced with what was on my old phone. I am gutted. Thanks.

    connect the old iPhone backup
    connect the new iPhone click restore->choose the new backup of the old iPhone from the list

  • Icloud Lost photos in Camera Roll when I backed up to my Mac

    I recently took a bunch of photos (while synced with icloud) and upgraded my phone from 4g to 4gs...I saw my pictures on the phone prior to syncing to my computer (macbook). When I synced my phone to my computer, off of the old back-up (on my mac), i lost all the photos in my icloud that I had taken prior. I have looked everywhere for them with no Luck. Note: The new phone had icloud set up to sync (to include pictures).
    So my question is, is there a saved backup in the icloud server i can get them back? where did they go?  Why are some of the older ones there, but the newer ones are not? what is really strange is i have photos on the cloud from before AND after those pics I am looking for, but those are missing. please help!
    Thx....

    Hi. This sounds like a refresh issue. Can you try the following. Navigate within PS Touch one level up to the "Local Photos" - see attached scrrenshot. After that try to access your photos form the Camera Roll again.
    Hope that helps.

  • I have many of those lost photos on my iPod.  How can I import those to my MacBook Pro without the iTunes synchronization kicking in and removing them?

    I lost rather a lot of photos on a corrupted external storage device.  I have many of those photos on my iPod.  How can I import those
    photos into my MacBook Pro without the iTunes synchronization function kicking in and effectively deleting those photos I want to
    import from that iPod?  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as those photos now only reside on that iPod...

    The photos you synced to your iPod through iTunes are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of those photos.  So if you do manage to get them off your iPod, they will be quite small in size compared to the original ones you lost.
    In order to get them off of your iPod, you'll need the help of some sort of 3rd party software. Here is one option.

  • How do I remove recovered photos (used photorec to recover lost photos) to have more space in my macbook pro HD?

    How do I remove recovered photos (used photorec to recover lost photos) to have more space in my macbook pro HD?

    Hello there, Shrid.
    The following Knowledge Base article reviews how to Sync photos:
    iTunes: Syncing photos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    You will just sync to the new computer. Keep in mind:
    Additional Information
    Syncing photos with your device will create an iPod photo cache.
    Syncing photos can only happen from one computer or user account at a time. Syncing photos with a different computer or user replaces the photos on the device.
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
    Email them from the device to yourself.
    Copy them from the emails to your computer.
    On iPhone and iPod touch using iOS 5 and iOS 6, all synced photos will appear in a unified category called photo library. Photos are not duplicated; this is a way to view all synced albums in one place. You can also tap a specific album beneath photo library to view individual albums.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • GPS EXIF data removed when photos are synced to iPhone?

    I have manually added GPS EXIF metadata to photos that were taken by an old camera.
    After I synced these photos with iTunes for Win 11.3 to my iPhone all location data was gone.
    Is this a known issue?
    Your help is much appreciated!

    Nobody knows the answer? Yours was the third question like this I found by searching, yet none have been answered. I get the same results using Picasa. Once the photos are synced back to the iPhone, orientation is lost. Friends looking at the pictures on my iPhone have to keep rotating the device, cocking their head, or both. Some advanced device, that is!

  • How can I retreive lost photos on my iPad

    How can I retrieve lost photos on my iPad?

    How were they lost? You have provided no background material for someone to work with. If you have deleted the photos and are on the latest iOS, there is a deleted photos album in Photos. If you do not have them in the deleted photos album, you could restore your device from a backup that contains the photos. If these were not photos from the Camera Roll and from syncing, they had to be removed by a sync, and could be synced back as long as they still exist on the computer. There are a few other choices, but I'll wait and see what you may have been doing.

  • After reset ipad i lost photos i want recover photos

    Lost photo after reset ipad 
    How can i get back lost photo

    If they were on the iPad when you last synced/backed up on your computer's iTunes then you can try restoring the iPad from that backup (backups and restoring). Otherwise I'm not aware of any way to recover them.

  • How to recover a lost photo library on iPhone after ios 5?

    Hi guys,
    I know that there has been hundred of questions regarding lost photo's after installing ios 5 but I am struggling to find anything that relates to my situation.
    I installed ios 5 onto my iPhone 4 on saturday afternoon, but before I did this I backed it up. Everything seemed to work ok, I backed up to my mac rather than iCloud as I hadnt yet installed Lion.
    When I went to use my phone I noticed that everything was still there (apps, contacts, camera roll etc) except for another photo library that was in my photo app (the library was the photo's from my previous iPhone). I cant find these pics anywhere. I have tried using the back up twice but they still arent there!!
    does anyone have any idea of where they might be or have they been lost forever?
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    many thanks

    The photo sync is one way - computer to iphone.
    You ould have to e-mail them to yourself.  When you sync photos to your iphone the current pics will be deleted.
    The iphone is not a storage device, it simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.

  • Lost photos on iCloud

    My iphone4s was stolen on vacation in Europe. Only two photos taken on the trip showed up on my ipad2 and imac. All were set to receive photo stream.
    What could have happened that all the photos were lost? Thanks for any insight so it doesn't happen again!

    When you delete photo stream photos from your phone, they are deleted from iCloud and all your other devices/computers.  iCloud doesn't store photo stream photos, it syncs them.
    You also can't use iCloud to free up space on your phone.  All your iCloud data is also on your phone.  When you delete data from your phone that you are syncing with iCloud, it is also deleted from iCloud.
    If the deleted photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up your phone, restoring the entire backup should recover them.  Otherwise thy're gond.

  • Lost photo album

    I lost a photo album when I did a system restore. any thoughts if its recoverable? I had done a back up to my computer and my photos and my other album came back, just not this particular album.

    If the photos were synced to your phone from your computer or photo stream they wouldn't be included in the backup.  The backup only includes camera roll photos.  If these were not in the camera roll you would need a different backup source to recover them.

  • TS3697 I am receiving an error message(iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previously synced to your iPhone") I am trying to download pics from my computer to my iPhone. Any ideas? Peter

    When I went to download some pics (originally taken with my iphone 4S) from my computer back to my iPhone I got the following error message: "iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previosly synced to your iPhone?"
    Coincidentally, my wife just purchased an iPhone 4S and syncs to iTunes on the same computer.
    Any ideas?
    Peter

    The "best" way to handle it, if you want to keep everything separate, is to create separate user accounts on the computer. make sure you log into your account on the computer before you attempt to sync your phone and log out when you're done using the computer.
    Though it's possible to sync both of them to the same iTunes library, and even share an account for the iTunes store, you're inviting confusion and possible data loss (as you've discovered already). Best to just use separate user accounts on the computer. That also gives you the benefit of not polluting the other persons browser favorites, contacts, etc.
