Moving photos from an ipod to a windows computer

Friend of mine had his PC hard drive crash and lost all the photos on his hard drive. Fortunately, all the photos were synced to the iPod photo. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a way to transfer photos from the iPod to another PC (since the original synced "computer" no longer exists). Since I am a MAC guy all the PC versions of doing things are slightly different. I have found ways to move the music; but not the photos. HELP!

There are many topics that discuss this. If you search for 'computer crashed' you'll find a lot of information on this.

  • How do I get saved photos from my iPod touch to my computer?

    Just as the subject says, I don't know how to get saved photos from my iPod touch to my computer. Does anyone have an idea of how to do this? My iPod is currently the latest version.

    When you sync your iPod touch it should do all of this automatically. If not, when your iPod touch appears in the iTunes control bar click it and check the settings as it should always take a complete back up. I back mine up to a mac, and when I do it automatically launches iphoto to transfer any images on there. I’m pretty sure that gallery in windows does the same,although you may have to manually transfer them.Or you can consider some iPod transfer softwares.But there are many softwares.I think you may need a transfer software review.I hope it can help you~

    You determine where the import is stored on your computer depending on what you use for the import.

  • HT1678 How do I synch/download photos from my iPod classic to my computer, which has a Windows operating system?  Thanks.

    I am trying to download photos from my iPod to either an external hard drive or my computer, which has a Windows operating system. The iPod should function like an external hard drive, right?  My photo files/computer/hard drive were damaged. Can I put my photos on the iCloud, and then save on external drive?  Not sure how to o this either.  I lost a few years of baby photos. Thanks for any help!

    iTunes syncing to iPods (that are not iPod touch) mostly goes one way, from computer to iPod.  For photos, at the time you synced the photos to the iPod, there is a setting that you needed to have enabled in iTunes if you later want to recover them from the iPod.  This setting is on the iPod's Photos tab in iTunes (where you set up photo syncing).  There is a checkbox for Include full-resolution photos.
    IF that checkbox was checked, you can Enable disk use on the iPod's Summary tab, and find the full-res photo files in the Photos folder on the iPod.  Otherwise (if setting not checked), when iTunes syncs the photos to the iPod, iTunes converts the images to a very low-resolution version that is optimized to fit the small iPod screen and stores the image data in a single database file (to save storage space).  There may be third-party software that can extract separate photos from that database file, but the resulting photos will look bad blown up to computer screen size.

  • How can I transfer photos from my ipod touch to my computer

    How can I transfer photos from my iPod touch to my laptop.?

    What photos?
    Photos synced from computer to ipod are one way only  - computer to ipod.  As they came from your computer in the first place, they should still be there.
    Pics taken with ipod are imported as with any digital camera.

    Keep in mind that the recovered photos will not be in their full resolution, but instead will be the scaled down versions that were optimized in size and resolution to fit your iPod's smaller LCD screen.

  • Transfering Photos from an IPod into a Mac Computer

    Help! On a recent trip I've downloaded photos from my camera (Panasonic Lumix) onto my IPod using a camera connector..............I was under the impression I could then transfer them into my computer once I was home................and I HAVE done this before!...............however at the moment I can't remember how and Technical Support says it's impossible...........without third party software...............which I did not use before..................can anyone help me with this problem? As I have some 1200 photos 'stuck' in my IPod they will be of little value to me if I can't somehow get them into my computer.............
    Thanks in advance................Patty

    Chris.......Thank you for your prompt respone to my 'plea'...................I have followed your instructions but need clarification If I may..................When I click on Finder I only have two folders present...............One called 'thumbs' and another which called Photo Data Base..............IF my photos are in there somewhere, I am unable to find them..................I have a feeling I'm missing something.................Have you any further ideas? Warmest regards, Patty

  • Is there a a way to get photos from your iPod back onto your computer?

    My sister's computer crashed, and she lost all her photos. Her pictures are on her iPod, but I can't find a way to get them onto another computer. I searched posts looking for programs that could help, but they all cost money. Does anyone know of free programs that can help me????

    There aren't any free ones that I know of, but if you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in "my computer" in Windows or Finder on a Mac, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to your desktop. For enabling disk use look here.
    Disk Use.
    If you only copied the photos as thumbnails, you can't do this so you'll need a program such as this one.
    iPod Photo Copy. (Windows only)
    iPod Photo Liberator. (both Mac and Windows versions available)
    Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.

  • HT1349 how do i get photos from my iphone to my windows computer

    I can not seem to get the photos from my iphone 4S to transfer to my windows computer.  photostream is total crap and will not work. 28 photos of 300 were transfered and then it stopped working.  Need help.  Thanks,

    You can transfer photos from camera roll using usb as outlined in this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  If you are trying to transfer photos from Photo Stream or Photo Library on your phone, you will need to use an app like PhotoSync to do this.  (PhotoSync will transfer all of the photos on your phone to your computer using wi-fi.)

  • How do I remove synced photos from my Ipod back to the computer?

    I had to replace the hard drive in my laptop and now I have lost all my photos that were placed in my Ipod from my files. How do I take the photos back off of the Ipod and into the laptop? Thanks!

    You could e-mail them to yourself.  They will not be of the original quality.
    The ipod is not a backup device.  The photos sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    Did you fail to backup your pics?
