Photo orientation with iPhone 5

When I take a photo with my iPhone 5 and email it to someone (including my desktop computer), it arrives in landscape orientation even if I shot the image as portrait. So I have to manually rotate the image 90°. I have heard that there is a fix for this problem, but do not remember the steps involved. Can someone provide the steps to reset the phone so it sends the photos in the orientation in which they were shot? Thanks!

The client is ignoring the orientation information in the metadata for the photo. It's not a problem with the phone, it's a problem with theclient who is receiving it.

Photo orientation with AppleTV

Hello all
I have been having some problems with photo orientation in AppleTV screen saver and in viewing the iPhoto library on AppleTV. I did all the usual things, restarted the Apple TV, restarted computer, etc. What was really strange was the photos I had changed rotation in iPhoto were all good. It was AppleTV which wasn't seeing them as 'corrected' images. What AppleTV was doing, was seeing the original photos, rather than the edited versions (the correctly oriented photos).
What I had to do was go to the original source of the photo. So I had to click on the photo, then go to File, see original file. The original file was still in the incorrect position. Once I opened this in preview and corrected it, it seemed to work. Will keep you posted. What is also interesting to note is that AppleTV was having problems with the original picture files of photos taken with a camera, rather than with the iPhone. There seems to be a bug here about how the AppleTV sees original and corrected files when the photos are taken with a digital camera.
Keen to know what others have found.
Happy AppleTV travels everyone.

Updating the information regarding photo orientation with AppleTV screen saver.
Clear instructions: Click on photo in iPhoto, then go to File, choose 'Reveal in Finder', select 'Original File'. A window opens up where the original photo file is held. Open the photo in Preview. Rotate photo as needed. Close and save. You are done. Restart your AppleTV and turn your photos on and off to share in iTunes. Ta Da, it all works and it's very easy.
Hope this is helpful.

How can i prevent and fix white eyes in photos taken with iphone 4S

How can i prevent and also fix white eyes in photos taken with iphone 4S? Is there a camera app that will help prevent this?

On the photo, click on Edit, the third icon at the bottom has a red circle with a slash over it, that's the red-eye fix. Touch that and it will fix all red eyes automatically or make you touch the red eyes and then fix them for you. Not perfect, but a great help. Now, I find that the fixes do not carry over when I save the photos in my computer. Hope to find an answer for that.

I then tried sending to my personal and my work accounts and also added one of those to the "CC" line... so that email had 2 email address in the "To:" line and 1 eamil address in the "cc:" line... That one worked just fine !!! got it twice in my personal account and once in my work account.

The only itmes that have shown up in my sent box are the last tow... the email with multipul addresses and the photo that I sent right after...
So... it appears to be owrking at the moment...
Thanks for your help... I'm not sure why it's working now.. but at least it is...

Should Photo Stream in iPhoto show photos taken with iPhone?

Migrated all of my accounts to iCloud and was looking forward to using Photo Stream to share photos between our iPhones and Mac. I have it turned on with all three devices, yet none of the photos published to Photo Stream show up on other devices. Meaning: the Photo Stream photo on my iPhone does not show up in the Photo Stream on my Mac. The photos in the Photo Stream on my Mac are not showing up on my iPhone. Is there something additional I need to do to get this to work?

Try going into the iPhoto preferences and iPhone settings pane and turn off PhotoStream and then turn it back on again. For iPhoto I'd uncheck each of the checkboxes close the preferences, open the preferences and check them all again. Maybe even close iPhoto between unchecking and checking again.
As for the iPhone maybe reboot it also.

Very poor quality on photos made with iphone 4

Since a few weeks i've noticed that photos made with my iPhone 4 have a very poor quality. I've upgraded to IOS 4.3.2 thinking about a software problem, but the quality is still very poor. It´s like out of focus. I submit a just made photo. Any answer? Thanks a lot.
This photo is made with original photo app and no zoom.

Only thing I can think of is a focus problem (which could be software) or a lens with some junk on it that causes some blurring.
Can't offer a solution but can make some suggestions.
Take different types of pictures and, just for variety in case it reveals something, take two of each - one touching the screen and then one after touching for comparison.
Do close-ups and distance shots. Do indoor and outdoor, with and without flash on the indoor - again, of the same thing so you can compare.
Might reveal a pattern. If all are bad, then it probably goes back to the lense or software not working.
If some come out fine, it would seem to reduce the chance of it being the lens being dirty or something. On the other hand, if close up shots look good but distant ones don't, it could be either software or the internal focusing hardware isn't adjusting enough for distant shots.
Just some things to consider.

How to transfer photos taken with iPhone 4s on to my iPad 2

I have a iPhone 4s and ipad 2.i want to transfer photos taken in iPhone to iPad. How to do it?icloud only transfers photos taken recently,,, not the old photos.can anyone help me

You can import the photos from your iPhone's Camera Roll with your computer as with any other digital camera followed by transferring the photos to your iPad via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
And/or you can purchase the iPad Camera Connection Kit which provides for importing photos from the iPhone's Camera Roll and from other digital cameras or from other digital camera storage cards.

Photos taken with iPhone 3G syncing at low resolution

Something has changed with my iPhone 3G setup. I take a lot of pictures with it and now for some reason the picture files on my MacBook Pro are 360x270 instead of the 1600x1200 the phone is capable of. I know it didn't do this before, what's going on? Is there a setting to adjust this? Thanks.
Mark

Are you using finder to look at your photos? Stay out of the finder! iPhoto organizes itself so that it can function. If you do anything to that structure, you risk losing your precious photos. The data folder has always been there.

Cannot select photo events with iPhone anymore with new upgrade - can we only use the cloud now?

Hello,
I used to be able to select events from iPhoto that I wanted to appear in my phone. I cannot use photo stream for various reasons. The last time I synced my iPhone it would not allow me to select any events at all, but only reverted to the recent photo stream ONLY. Which means that none of my old photos can now be found on my iPhone. I hate this - I want some of my old photos. Why can't I select my old events? Please help!

Thank you so much for your answer! Yes, this is my 1st time to the community too, again thank you! Okay, here's the sequence that 'may' help explain; 1st- My son got an Iphone 4 & wanted to buy songs, etc., so I added his phone to my Itunes acct..--he consequently signs on under my email address (my Apple ID) & my PW. No problem then, it had/has listed ex. Mom's Iphone & Son's Iphone (mine is a 4s, don't think that makes a difference- except in telling u that Siri doesn't work properly now either & refers to my son's name now instead of mine!) As far as I can tell, the real problems began with the ICloud settings on our Iphones--meaning the settings on 'where' to back our phone's- ICloud or to the Laptop (both phones back up to the same laptop.) It's so complicated I can hardly explain it, so sorry if I'm bouncing around! I did not mean to or rather it was not an intentional decision to use the same ICloud, however since we share the same comp. and Itunes account, and basically passwords--it somehow happened. I don't know how to undo this mess! Last night I went to ICloud.com & was able to sign on with my son's @me.com user ID & our Itunes PW (aka-Apple ID.) It really didn't do anything except show me Iphone features, ex. Contacts, Ibook, etc.. I did 'not' see a place where I could change any settings, like to possibly change his Apple ID, or pw...that's all I can think of to change? And even with that I'm not sure how to do that...he's 14, a minor--so he has to be under my settings to a degree. Don't mind at all having seperate ID's, but we do share "some" music and app's for example. Is any of this making sense or even partially explaining my problems? Thank you in advance!

Remove geotags from photos taken with iPhone (2G)

Hi everyone,
I have some photos inside iPhoto that were taken with my 1st gen iPhone. For example there's one event with photos all taken within the range of a few meters, but the map shows me the pin at a not so nearby city and when zooming in it splits into 4 pins where only 1 of them is the correct event location. Another event is in the middle of Ireland, but I've never been there in my life. You get the idea...
Since this gets you lots of partially wrong places I'd like to simply remove all geographic information from these photos and give them a location manually later on.
What is the easiest way to accomplish this?
Thanks a lot!
Björn
PS: I tried creating new places, but that's not what I'm looking for.

OK, I've tried several tools which offer EXIF metadata editing, but none could remove the geotags. So I took another look at iPhoto and found the following workaround:
Export the photos from iPhoto and make sure that *'Include Location Data'* isn't checked. It's a bit strange, but when exporting to JPG (the originals are JPG, too) and selecting the highest quality setting the above mentioned option is greyed out. Seems like this simply outputs your images completely unchanged, because the geotags were still there. So I had to select
a) another file format like TIFF or
b) choose a lower JPG quality setting.
I went with b) since the images are only iPhone photos and there was not a single pixel difference in quality when I selected JPG and quality High instead of the maximum setting. After exporting I deleted the geotagged originals from iPhoto and re-imported my tag-less photos. Places no longer shows a place now.
Not ideal, but I can live with it for now. Maybe I'll appreciate the iPhone's geotagging ability once I have a 3G or newer model, but I don't want to use the 2G's only nearly accurate location data...
Hope this helps someone else looking for the same thing!

Photo taken with Iphone cannot be save after editing

After editing the photo taken from my Iphone 4S on my computer, I can't save it. Error given is "This photo can't be saved because of a problem with photo's file format". Have anyone encounter the same problem and found a solution to it?

Try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the reset is complete, the "Slide to Unlock" screen will display. Try a photo again to see if it is working.
Cheers,

Spot in photos taken with iPhone 3GS

Recently, I've noticed a small spot on photos I've taken with my iPhone. Also I've noticed that the photos are slightly out of focus. On further investigation, I notice that I can see the spot through the phone before I take the photo, as I am focusing. It is about 1/2 cm in diameter and is about a quarter/third way down the phone screen. I've cleaned the lens cover with my computer screen cloth, but it did not make a difference. Any ideas?
Geraldine

I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they gave me a new one. I should have done that sooner!Something internally wrong with the lens. Thanks for advice.

Photos taken with iPhone camera not syncing during sync

I recently switched from the 3G to the iPhone 4 and have experienced some syncing issues which I never had before. For instance, previously, whenever I would sync / backup my phone, a message box would pop up asking if I wished to add new photos on my phone to my computer. If I chose yes, a folder (which was assigned a name according to the date of my backup) would be created on my computer into which all photos that I'd taken since my last backup would automatically be backed up to.
This no longer happens.
I took a lot of video clips at a wedding that I recently attended and I would like to back up the video and photos to my computer so that I can free up the memory on my phone.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can get things back to the way they used to be (ie get my phone to auto-backup all new photos from my camera roll to my computer when synced like it used to)?
Thanks.
~JAKI

Have no idea since iTunes doesn't sync off photos from camera roll. (will embed as part of single backup file with rest of settings, but it doesn't sync photos).
Photos in camera roll get synced off by a variety of means. Like the Camera/Scanner wizard that normally by default pops up unless you altered some setting or installed some other photo software that has taken over that default.
You can also just browse to the phone from My Computer as it shows up as a camera (remember, the camera roll is treated differently than rest of device). Then once you browse to it you can just cut and paste files off.

Had to do a restore through itunes - lost my photos taken with iphone

iphone froze up - had to do a full restore
but now my photos i took with the phone are gone..any way to get them back?
whats up with this?

robbonds,
A restore formats the iPhone as part of the process of restoring to the same condition it came out of the box. Reseting the iPhone does not erase the iPhone, and will often resolve situations where the iPhone has become unresponsive.
Your photos can be transferred to your computer after they were taken, and are not included in the information that is backed up for iTunes.

Photo issue with iPhone 4... ?

I only just bought my iPhone a month ago. When I downloaded iOS 5, I noticed all my old photos were put in an album called "Camera Roll" (I don't believe this was the case before). Now when I take photos they stay on the camera app but aren't automatically transferred over to "camera roll". I don't know why this is or how to change it. I've also tried hooking my iPhone up to my Macbook Pro to try and upload the photos but when I open Image Capture it's showing I have 0 images. What's going on?

I removede the plastic film behind the phone and the photo is coming clear now.
Thank you very much for your response.
