Phone won't save photos!

I can take photos with my Curve 8520, but it won't save them. When I take a photo, then look for it in the folder, it isn't there. I've checked my memory, and that's fine. I have enough memory on the phone. Any ideas as to why this is happening and what I can do?

Having the exact same problem. I remove the battery &then the photo's I've taken are there.
It's getting annoying though. I shouldn't have to hard reboot my phone to get my photo's.
If anyone can help, message meee! Please.

N96 Won't save photos

I have an old N96 i use for taking photographs and yesterday it stopped working. It takes the photo but won't save it to the phone i plugged it in opnedd up pc suite and the photos were not there either what can i do?

Hi keirah,
Where is the default saving location of the photos? Is it to the phone memory or SD card? If you've saving it to the SD card, can you try to use the memory card to other devices and check if it will work? We also suggest that you use a Nokia memory card to avoid errors in saving data. If the saving location is set to the phone memory, you can try to perform a soft reset by dialing *#7780#. If you will be asked to enter a code, enter 12345 if the code has not been changed yet.
Let me know the outcome.

Firefox won't save photos as jpegs, rather it saves as firefox docs

When I right click a photo and choose "save as image as", Firefox saves the image as a Firefox document, not a jpeg as it used to.
I can, however, save the photo as a jpeg if I add ".jpg" to the photo's file name prior to saving it, which becomes burdensome if saving many photos.
Any ideas how to make Firefox save photos as jpeg files by default?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Won't save photos from e-mail or texts?

I have an iPhone 4 that I purchased in March. Last month while trying to save a photo from a text, I went into the camera roll and in its place was a gray box with "JPG" in the middle where the photo should have been. Also, when I first clicked on the Photos app there was a very quick "Sorry, we're experiencing technical difficulties" screen that was so fast that I can't really remember if that's what it said exactly.
I called Apple tech support twice and they had me Reset All Settings, set up the phone as new on iTunes, restore it, then sync with the last backup I had had. This worked just fine until last night it happened again. I redid all of those steps but it will not work.
If I take a picture or save it from safari/google images it works just fine and shows up. However, it still will not let me save an image from a MMS text or from an e-mail.
Anybody else experience this or know what to do to be able to do this again?
(I was able to successfully do it that whole month in between when I called Apple in April until last night. I saved one from a text just last week)

IPhone Camera won't save photos/iPhoto can't see photos

My iPhone camera is having a lot of problems.
1. Photos the are clear when taken are blurry when reviewed.
2. When I try to delete a photo, it says "saving photo" instead.
3. Photos don't save properly.
4. Although I have 900 pics on my iPhone, iPhoto recognizes the iPhone but says there are no items.
I tried wiping the phone and restoring from back up, and restarting multiple times. Help!!!

This worked!
summary:

That's it.

Hi everyone.
I had the exact problems that you're all describing. Pictures getting pixly/blurred, camera app crashing, and at the end I couldn't even open the picture-viewer. I found this thread and was let down, but I continued searching for a tip and was rewarded.
This fix worked like a charm:
http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/how-to/how-to-fix-iphone-camera-roll-crash-and-phot os-turned-to-other-in-itunes/
It gives you a step by step-solution which was fairly simple to follow. Afterwards, my camera app works again just fine and I have no problems viewing my pictures.
And best of all, no restore or factory restore needed!
Good luck, best wishes from Sweden.

IPad (4th gen) won't save photos from any source

This is a NEW iPad using iOS 6.1.2. I restored it from a backup of my previous iPad that was replaced under warranty last week. Here's what I've tried so far...
Reset (3X)
Privacy settings for Photos set to allow Facebook access
Taking pics and video with the iPad
It won't even save the photos I take with the iPad.
Suggestions appreciated.

I'm not sure this is related, but it sounds like it's worth checking to me:
You say you have set your privacy settings to allow Facebook access.
Are you signed on to Facebook (at Settings > Facebook)?
I would think you should be (but don't know this first hand).
Maybe toggling your Facebook login status would help. (If you're logged out, then log in. If you're logged in, then log out.)

IPhoto '08 won't save photos

After installing iPhoto '08 over the previous version, which was working properly, I can't seem to save the photos I download from my camera. I get this message:
"Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library."
My iPhoto library is on a separate disk, with plenty of space. The photos import, create an event, but don't' save.
Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Bruce:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. As Terence mentioned the boot drive requires adequate space for cache, memory pageout and system cache files. It's strongly recommended that a minimum of 10 GB be maintained or more for best performance.
You can regain some free space by running Monolingual to remove the unneeded language modules. Be sure to not remove the English modules. If you're on an intel Mac do not run any of the other option in Monolingual. I saved nearly 2.5 GB the first time I ran it on my MBP.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Given that you've just received it back from repair, I'd recommend you talk to them again...it would seem they did not do something correctly.
Good luck!

IPhoto won't save photos after using crop feature...

Okay, I don't understand if I am doing something wrong or what, but I am trying to crop and iPhoto doesn't save the pics.
This is what I am doing...I open a picture in iPhoto, click the 'crop' button, then drag the borders where I want it to crop, then I click 'done.' The 'saving changes' box with the blue & white progress bar never pops upadn ,it just shoots me back to the thumbnail screen. When I look at the file, nothing has been cropped, and I even reopen the file, and again, nothing cropped.
If I open a picture and use the 'effects' button and make changes, it saves with no problem. It just doesn't want to save any crops.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sportscrazed33:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You have to hit the crop button after selecting the area to crop. If you're cropping to a predetermined ratio that's in the Constrain menu it will automatically select an area to crop that you can then adjust. You don't need to hit the Crop button before selecting the area. Then hit the Done button. It's not intuitive but that's the way it is.

Updated iPhone 4 to latest ios7 and now my camera won't save any photos to my albums

Updated my iPhone 4 to the latest ios7 and now my camera won't save photos to my albums? How do I fix that?

Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
in iTunes select the phone or iPad
Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.

Photos won't save to camera roll

Since I installed iOS7, all the pictures I take with the camera won't save to camera roll. I see them in the lower corner of the camera but when I click on it, they are not in the camera roll. In the camera roll, I just have a bunch of pictures that I deleted months (or years!) ago. I uninstalled my profile and reinstalled it two or three times with always the same result.
All the settings are ok.
I installed the profile of a friend on my phone to test it and everything works fine with his profile.
Anyone can help me out with this issue?

bluetooth is an APPLE issue: they have blocked many of the 'normal' bluetooth features on 'other' handsets..
an example you may be thinking of is Sharing a photo via Bluetooth .. simple everywhere else, but can not be done on iphone
-you have to use it via an app such as iphoto, or send it attatched via an email, from the iphone.
stupid, annoying, yes.

When I save photos or videos from my iPhone 4S to my PC they are all sideways. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? All are taking with the phone in portrait mode.

Shot videos ONLY in landscape. For photos choose what's you like. Maybe you have to rotate photos on PC. What's your operating system?

Won't save as a version with photos on external hard drive

Ok...think this is my last problem of the night. At the end of each month I move all of my photos from my laptop to the external hard drive, but when I finally get around to editing them while they are being accessed from the external hard drive it won't save them as a version of the original photo. That box is actually grayed out on the "save" screen in the Editor.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks. Amy

PSE 6...sorry I didn't state that and Windows XP.
Thanks. Amy

Mountain Lion won't allow me to save photos from Mail directly to iPhoto (as you could in all other recent OSX). Tried opening iPhoto and then click/drag each photo onto iPhoto icon on dock (as Help instructed) but the photo will not drag. Suggestions?

I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening.
Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.
