No Pics in Photos App

When I sync my photos from Itunes to my Iphone 4 there isn't any photos under the Photos app. Pictures are in camera roll under the Camera app. How do I get them to show up in the albums section of the Photos app?

Deselect Sync Photos followed by selecting Apply and a sync.
Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos and your selections below followed by a sync.

Duplicate Pics in Photos App (iCloud)

Yesterday I upgraded my icloud account to 200GB, and moved all my photo's from iPhoto to the newly released Photos App. It seems a lot of my photo's were duplicated. What are my options to delete any duplicate photos in my "new" library?

I noticed the same thing. Have you noticed that, among the duplicates, that one has a "Photostream" tag and the other doesn't? I think that may be the source of the duplications.

How to delete album in photo apps?

A friend loaded 291 pics into Photo apps of my iPad from his mac. I am using Windows Vista, I would like to delete for ever all those pics. How to do it? Than k you.

Photos that were synced from a computer can only be deleted by re-syncing. So connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, and on the Photos tab that shows on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on the left, either select a folder of your own photos to sync or just select an empty folder - as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad, when you sync your photos (or empty folder) the existing synced photos will be removed.

I have the same problem but in reverse. I clicked on don't allow in FaceBook when I was asked to allow it to access my photos and videos. I have been into the privacy settings as suggested by FaceBook and there is no link.

Pics in camera vs. photos app

Can I delete the pics under the photo app without deleting the pics in the camera app? I want to make storage available.

Photos taken with the Camera App are stored in the Camera Roll Album in the Photos App. There is only one copy.

Photo app storage is 3.9gb used when I have no pics????

why is my photo app using 3.9gb when I have no pictures? I had loads on and it said 4.6gb so I backed them up and deleted them. Also deleted them from recently deleted folder. THERE ARE NO PICS ON MY PHONE. after this action I now tells me I'm using 3.9gb instead of 4.6gb. Is the drive partitioned or is 3.9 reserved for photos? Both of these are doubted. So please can anybody enlighten me??? I have 5s. And as you probly already know all my cloud is used up by ios8. This is sending me mental and I'm ready for smashing it up as I can't get anything else on my phone now and I should have 3.9gb shouldnt i?

You still get "Not enough" space after deleting everything? how much music do you have on the phone. And how much free space does it say you have now?

How do you sort Pics in Smart Folder? Photos App

How do you sort pics in a smart folder in the Photos App? Date, Name, etc.

Yes, when I do that it sorts the albums in the folder by name.
I may have misused terminology, I meant Smart Albums not smart folders, if this makes a difference.
Thanks for your help!

The recent OS update has deleted all my pics from an app called "my photos" is there any way to get these back?

the recent OS update has deleted all my pics from an app called "my photos" is there any way to get these back?

If the system just Restarted on it's own, Shut down while you were working on something then started back up all those changes, edits, you had done in that app, document, are gone.

Will the new photos app and icloud photos library support all formats of pics and videos from my iphoto library?

I will be migrating my whole 200gb iPhoto library 9.5.1 mavericks over to Yosemite iPhoto 9.6.1 and then migrate to the new photos app and hopefully to the icloud.photos online. Does this all support all of my formats such as AVI videos in my iPhoto library. I don't want to lose those through migration.

I have this 31% issue too - when I attempt to update my iPhoto library to the new Photo app.
I have a few libraries - one on my mac, and two on a NAS. I access the NAS via wifi.
The mac based library did update, but the two network albums have yet to be successfully migrated over to Photo.
It's driving me insane!!!

Photos app bug resurrects long-removed photos (related to PNG alpha)

Wanted to report/discuss a possible privacy concern and image glitch, and understand it better for submission to Apple's feedback page: the iPad (and maybe iPhone) Photos app will consitently resurrect long-deleted photos in your Camera Roll, under certain circumstances. These are long-removed photos (as in removed many months ago, prior to the iOS 5 update), and possibly only the reduced-size thumbnail versions.
Note: as near as I can tell, the deleted photos were NOT originally from the camera roll! That's where they resurface, but I believe they are photos from other albums, maybe once which used to by synched to iPad but which I no longer synch. So "removed" might mean deleted or it might mean "no longer synched to iPad"... the images are so old I can't recall.
So the bug, I'm guessing, it two-fold:
1) The Photos app (and/or iPhoto during wired synch?) is not fully removing photos (or at least, their thumbs). They're no longer visible in Photos app, but are being retained somewhere on the device.
2) A glitch in the Photos camera roll PNG handling (which I think may be new with iOS 5) causes those old images ro re-surface when you add a PNG to the camera roll. (The old photos were JPEG, but the image that triggers the bug must be a PNG with alpha channel)
I have seen this on both an iPad 1 and iPad 2, running iOS 5.
Here's how to reproduce it:
1) Synch some photos to your iPad, then deselect them for synching and re-synch (so they're not there any more). Also, add some photos or screenshots to the camera roll and then delete them. I say to do both because I'm not 100% where the old photos come from, and I'm hoping this covers all bases! Actually, most people have already done these things in the past, and can probably skip this step.
2) Generate a transparent PNG using the art app Procreate (and probably any app that saves PNGs to the camera roll with alpha channel). All you have to do is scribble somethign into a blank Procreate canvas, then export it to your photo album. There is no need to do anything special to get an alpha channel or PNG format: you always get that. (Unless you used the Fill command to completely cover the canvas.) Now in the camera roll there should be your scribble on a transparent background. You can email it to yourself and see that clearly in Photoshop or Preview.
3) Here's the glitch: look at your camera roll (thumbnails view) and you'll see that the alpha-transparent background of the image has become one of your old removed photos! Tap it to enlarge and the alpha becomes black (which is fine, although it may seem odd if you intended to paint onto the default white canvas). But for just a moment, before you see the black, you will get a full-size glimpse of the old photo. (Or, maybe, an enlargement of the thumbnail?)
4) If you keep saving more alpha PNGs, you'll keep seeing more and different old photos coming back to life in the alpha regions of the thumbnails (and, briefly, at full size).
5) If you delete all those PNGs and then save some new ones, you'll see the same sequence of old photos reappear again.
Needed fix: removed phtos/thumbnails should be properly purged, and alpha PNGs should show simply black (or some default background) at all times.

Ok, I replicated it and I don't like it! I didn't use the one you marked cause I couldn't call it up properly but I did Bing
transparent gifs and loaded up 3, one was totally invisible in the thumbnail and I could clearly see one of my pics perfectly in the thumbnail but when I brought it to page the gif filled the frame.
I have no idea where the pic came from, I mean I recognize it but from where in the album I have no idea.
Oh yeah, I was wrong about the first pic coming to page, it wasn't the same image but a different one...and I have no idea how the one that came up, (what i thought was the underlying pic) did, or how it got there or even from where.
This is some weird stuff though not as weird as that silly *** movie, what a load of tripe; I should have just spent my
time on this, it's infinitely more enjoyable!
Ok, here's the consensus from my layman iPad view:
What happened now and most probably before was a 'transparent gif' or a partially transparent gif like the one I spoke of first that I could see the edge of or the outer perimeter of, the underlining image with the gif taking up say 3/4 of the thumbnail; this it what it was.
This is totally apparent to me now because of your having me import a totally transparent gif which was invisible over my pic, thus the freaky part I didn't like...keying the thumbnail with one thing and ending up with something totally different when brought to page.
Still doesn't explain where this silly iPad is grabbing these pics from?
But here's something funny; my camera roll shows say 9,200 pics but my, 'iMy System' app say I have like 11,300 which I always thought was a fluke, that it was just reading wrong but maybe it's seeing something we're not. What if all those pics we're deleting to save space or just generally culling have never left the system? Maybe that goofy app is really reading the true count!
Those others up above us here who mentioned privacy concerns.. this could be whats going on, there's a ghost
in the machine and it be our old pics and god knows what else floating around in that iPads memory.
Ok, I'm crazy tired and I have to wrap this up. Least now we know how to replicate this but on the other hand I think we opened up an even bigger can of worms... the mystery of where all those images are hiding in our iPads?
I haven't hardwired to a computer since I upgraded to ios5 so whatever's going on here, leastwise for me is iPad
based and can't be blamed for synching issues like you discuss up above unless what I'm grabbing here is old stuff
reimported back into my pad from the mainframe when I was backed up for the ios5 upgrade?
Oh well, let me know what you think. Please do forgive my not getting back to you sooner on account of the movie
but you already know I regret choosing that over this! Hope you had a good night and thanks...

How can I delete multiple photos at once from the official Photos app?

Dear fellow Apple users,
I have many pictures on my Camera Roll in Apple's Photos app. What's the quickest way to delete multiple photos at once?
Thus far, I know how to delete photos one by one, but that's time-consuming.
Thank you.

No not box with arrow, that is share button. Edit is where it shows in the pic I posted

How do I get the new Photos App to use my iPhoto library which is stored on an external drive?

2 years back  assisted me in putting my HUGE iPhoto library on an external TB drive where I store all my pics and videos. They showed me how to point the iPhoto app to the iPhoto Library on my external, and it has worked flawless since. But now that I updated to the new release of Yosemite OS X, the Photos app failed to find it. And from what it looks like, it requires it to be stored locally on the iMac's drive... which I only have 500Gigs, and that was the whole reason for relocating the library...it's WAY bigger than 500Gigs. I would like to see if there is a way for the Photos app to find the iPhoto Library on my external, and update it so I can take full advantage of the new app and it's features.
Any help would be appreciated...!
Niles SoCal

Hey spdnbusa09,
If you hold down the Option key on your keyboard and launch Photos it should let navigate to and select you iPhoto Library on your external HD.

Weird email behavior in iPhone Photos app

On the weekend I took a few photos with my iPhone and I emailed one of them to my family, and everything seemed to be okay.
Now every time I open the "Photos" app it automatically opens the "New Message" window with a photo in the body as if I didn't already send the email. If I hit cancel and then "Delete draft" then next time I open photos, the same "new message window appears". I even tried sending off the email again to see if that would make it go away and it still comes up every time I open the Photos app.
The photo that appears in the "New Message" window is one that I sent out on Saturday and already deleted from my Camera Roll yet it keeps coming up.
I didn't have this problem with iPhone OS 3.x so it seems like a bug in 4.0 and 4.0.1. Has anybody else noticed this, or am I the only one?
Any ideas?

Ya I have this problem too! same situation. I sent a pic via email, it sent fine, now everytime I open the photo app it starts up a new email message. So far what I've tried and has been working for the moment is doing a hard reset on the iphone. It has cleared it up for the time being, we'll see if it returns or not.

IOS 8 Photos App - Events Album Sort Order is Screwed

Hi,
When I sync my photos (that are grouped into Events) from my Mac iPhoto Library, to my iPhone and view them in the iOS 8 Photos App, all the events are no longer sorted in order - they used to be sorted chronologically in 7.1.
To try and find the event photos that you are looking for is now impossible.
Does any one known how to fix this or is it a regression bug that they have introduced with iOS 8?
Rgds
Gary

This is such a cluster-f*ck. I was stunned when I found the change to iOS 8 brought this mixed up order of my events from my iMac's iPhoto. Having them in Events by month/year was the only way I could keep a reasonable handle on where everything is. This is completely unacceptable from Apple.
Then again, it seems from what I read around the Internet, those of us using iPhoto as our managing software AND using it to sync pics to our i-devices are a clear and dwindling minority. Maybe Apple just didn't think it important enough to bother, but they need to fix this.
What would have been completely helpful and awesome with iOS 8 would be the importing of keywords (and descriptions, but at least keywords) for those of us syncing from iPhoto. I can understand why Apple wouldn't have done so years ago (memory onboard our i-devices), but today there's no reason for this. Those tiny, tiny bits of data should come over with the photos to make them searchable by keyword. I'd care less about the Events being out of order if I could search by keyword on my iPhone or iPad.
Come on Apple... we have enough storage space to make this happen.
