Photos and Video do not store on storage card

I have a Palm Treo Pro from Telstra with a Telstra 2gb MicroSD card.  The problem is that I have not been able to view any of the photos and videos I have taken since I bought the phone, because the folder 100MEDIA does not exist.  I have selected the option to store all images and video on the storage card and I believe it should be storing them to the default location of DCIM/100MEDIA.......but there is no 100MEDIA folder.  I don;t want to store them on the device.
So where are all my images and videos? 
And I cannot create a any sub-folders (let alone one called 100MEDIA) in DCIM when it is synched as my PC tells me I cannot due to the folder DCIM being read-only, insuffiecient memory or no permission to do this.
I am extremely frustrated as I have potentially lost a lot of sentimental images and vids of my kids.

Can you view the photos and videos in the Pictures & Videos application on your device?

That's one of the questions I am trying to find out really. I take a photo, I have it set to save onto my storage card, yet when I look on my storage card there are no pictures/vids on it. So where is it saving anything that comes from the camera? I have done a search and the pictures and videos I have taken do not show up.
Okay, I think I understand where you are looking; I had to play around with a few things. You are using the "Explore" button from the ActiveSync window. When you open My Windows Mobile-based device, then Storage Card, it's blank. This particular view looks to be pretty useless.
The easiest solution, although not the cheapest, is to get an adapter that allows you to attach your storage card to your PC. In my case, when I bought my microSD card it came with an SD-sized adapter so I could use it with my existing card reader. The advantage is that you have the full power of Windows Explorer available to work on the card, and speed should be better than using the USB cable. The downside is that inserting and removing the card increases the risk of damage.
I think what Microsoft actually was thinking, though, was that you would set up a sync relationship with Windows Media Player. After the ActiveSync window comes up, fire up Windows Media Player from the Start menu, and look for a Sync button on the toolbar. Underneath is a drop-down that lets you set up synchronization for your Treo Pro for various media including photos and videos. I don't use this method because I don't want all the garbage on my PC to end up on my phone. However, if your media libraries are more organized than mine, it might work for you.
Hope this helps.

    No, there are no gurantees. The capabilitty exists to retrive deleted data from an iPhone, but like many things in life it is not 100% successful all the time. Be careful, there are a lot of scam artists out there. They take your money & retrive nothing. This guy is one of the best in the business, but he does not work for people in the private sector. Perhaps he can recommend a service to you. But, as already pointed out, you're looking at thousands of dollars out of pocket whether these folks are successful or not:

    I was filling a form online, then I got to where I had to upload a Microsoft document but when I clicked on upload document I only had the option of uploading photos and videos, but not Microsoft doc. Please help.... How do I upload Microsoft doc  and other related office documents?

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • HT4221 My ipad photos and video are not in any order.

    I have a series of photos and videos that I am using Sync Photos, and it loads them in completely absurd orders, different each time I've attempted. It does not follow the naming convention nor the dates in the order it has.
    My first sync, the photos were in order, then the video but I wanted both intermixed, following the name of the file and not the .jpg or .mov.
    I am syncing from a windows pc using Windows Vista.
    I tried using the app Photo Manager Pro, and it has the audacity to rename the files too! So the order there is whacked.
    Is there any common sense solution to this, so you know, I can use a modern apple device to view photos and video, in order?

    I have looked a little bit more, and it seems as though the video is lagging behind, not the other way around. Video seems choppy, but the audio is playing perfectly. Music Videos are suffering from the same problem as well. Also, when I sync to my iPod Touch 16GB, audio & video match up perfectly.
    I still have no idea how to fix this. Please help.

  • Transitioning from 4 to 4s: photos and video

    So I am not new to iphones, been in the game since the 3. But I just bought the 4s and for some reason my photos and video are not transitioning to the new phone. Any thoughts? Calendar, music and everything went great.

    Did you do a backup of your 3, then restore your 4S to that back up.

    The photo's that were in the "camera roll" album on the iphone are not sync'ed. They are to be imported to your PC with whatever program you import photos from any camera. On my Dell, I use the built-in camera wizard on windows XP.
    I am not sure if the camera roll is backed up with the official itunes "Backup" but I assume it is. So short of recovering an old backup, I do not know how to get the old camera roll photos back.
    For the other albums, these photos are on your PC in the designated sync folder as per the itunes photo tab.

    If the photos and video are not on the phone or in a backup, then there isn't anything you can do.

  • HT4847 my iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take photos/videos, etc. My icloud is on for photos/videos. Can I safely delete them on my phone to make storage room knowing I can access them on my icloud?

    My iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take more photos/videos, download apps, etc. I do have my photos/videos ON for icloud sync but not sure if I can safely delete them from my iphone to make room. And if I can delete them from my phone how do I access them on my icloud? I logged in for the first time and do not see where to access photos/videos?

    You can't just store photos on icloud.  They can be included as part of a backup or when using photo stream to sync photos from one device to another, but 1) photo stream keeps photos for up to 30 days after which they are deleted from the servers, and 2) never rely on a backup to icloud as a way of storing photos.  (When photos are deleted from the device, they are no longer on recent backups, and older backups get deleted in short time.)
    When it comes to photos, users should sync them to a computer for archiving.  Then they can delete the photos from the device, as the computer will have copies.
    Photos in backups on icloud cannot be viewed on icloud.

    Do you know where the actual photo files are located on your laptop? If so, you can transfer them to the Mac over a LAN or by saving them to an external HDD, thumb drive or burning them to a disk. Then you can import the photos to the iPhoto app that came on your new Mac.
    It would be the same process for the videos, however, it would depend what type of video files they are, as to which Mac app might allow you to view them.
    BTW, since your Mac is new you need to Accept the iLife apps; iPhoto, GarageBand and iMovie into your Mac App Store/iTunes account. Open the MAS, sign into you account, go to the Purchased pane and accept the apps.

  • HT1766 i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available.  how do i get around this?

    i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available.  how do i get around this?

    The Storage space its referring to is on iCloud. How much iCloud space is left, and how much space is your iPhone using?
    iCloud storage space and the iPhone's physical storage space are 2 different things.

  • ICloud Photo Library: How do I transfer photos and videos only from my iPhone to my iPad but not from my iPad to my iPhone?

    I had iCloud photo libraey turned on on both my iPad and iPhone. As said by the feature, photos and videos were being transferred automatically from each device to each other. I have a 64GB iPad Air 2 and my iPhone 5 only has 16GB of storage so I am lacking much more space on my iPhone than my iPad. I was wondering if there was a way to transfer photos only from my iPhone to my iPad but not from my iPad to my iPhone. Would turning off iCloud Photo library on my iPad do the trick? Thanks hope someone can help me out.

    iCloud Photo Library keeps all of your photos in the Cloud which you then can selectively download. So, unless you download the iPad photos, they are not going to be taking up any room on your iPhone:
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

  • Advice for recovering from "The requested URL was not found on this server" error when browsing photos and videos on my iPhone 4S IOS5.1

    Im not quite sure how I got into this situation but I have fried my Iphone app photo and video library.  This demonstrates itself in 2 ways
    1. The above error message when I attempt to play videos older than a certain date.
    2. Photos older than a certain date - appear to be grainy suggesting that only the thumbnails are on the phone, and the full resolution photos have been blitzed.
    This coruption may have occured as I have replaced my Iphone 2 times in the last few months for various reasons, where each time I have restored them both using back ups I have made using icloud.  (I havent made an Itunes back up since the iclod came around)
    In reading the support forums - it suggest to restore from a back up version.  Is anyone aware if selectively restoring media content from an icloud back up is possible.
    I have 2 Back Up versions on icould.
    1- 13.5 GB
    2- 7.2 GB
    My hope is that the earlier 13.5 GB version has content I am looking for.
    I am kicking myself for not making the occassional itunes back up, or at least use Image capture as a more secure way of ensuring my personal content is not lost. (I am loosing faith with icould).
    Can someone suggest a good workflow for restoring from a cloud back up.  I have already downloaded the most recent photos using image capture onto my mac.
    Kiwi Grant

    Progress Update.
    I made a back of what existing phtos and Videos I had on my Iplhone.  I used Image capture to do this making an entire back up of photos and videoa that were still intact on the phone.
    Image capture is god for this purpose, as it does exactly what you ask it to do without applying any rules or squishing the files back into iphote (which might also be corupted) 
    Image capture wil do the basic function of retriving the contents of the phone and save them as native files on your hard drive.
    Once I did this I erased my iphone, and re intitialised it restoring an older back up from icloud.
    As the retore was happneing - I did retreive the missing files that cuased the intial beviour as above, and I could play the videos that were missing in the above scenerio.  The wierd ting was however that even though the source files were now back on the device, the thumbnail previews were missing. Where I ahd balck thumb nails for server portions of the resotred content.
    I then went to bed as the restore is a long process.  When I woke up the library had library had cleaned itself up.  Mysteriously the prcess had deleted the files missing the their thumbnails.
    This is very perculiar and bad behavior.
    I am now repeating the process, and will attempt to download the missing content as it is restored and prior to the phone trying to fix itself.
    Here are the lessons learned.
    DO NOT rely on Photo Stream to keep back ups and synchornise videos from you IOS device. IT DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS CAPBILITY
    DO NOT rely on iCloud Back Up alone - always fd an occassional iTunes back up or more reliably still always take a back up of photos and video files using Image Capture to be doubly sure that you a have backd up any content.
    DO THIS NOW - dont wait to loose your phone ofr have your phone repaired by replacement at the apple Store.  (I did both :-(

  • I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

    I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

    I would guess that a TV series takes up a fair amount of storage capacity. It is just a standard message I think that may indicate that you are actually running low on storage space.
    If you go to Settings>General>About how many GBs are specified as being available?  If you are low on space maybe deleting some apps may help.

  • I need help on back up and more storage for photos and videos.  I have a imac (500g) that I back up to a 500g hard drive using time machine.  How do I set up a larger hd and back that up as well?

    I can buy a 1T hd to store photos and videos to, but would need a second one to back that up as well?  I guess I need to know how to get aperture and iphoto to keep my photos on a larger drive and how to keep both the imac and that larger hd backed up.  Note- we can't get  DSL, so off site back up isn't a viable option.

    Move your photo and video libraries to an external HD. Apple explains how to do this in:
