Photos disappeared from the Camera Roll

Photos and videos of the iPhone's camera roll disappeared.
I went into Settings / About and the information appears that the photos are there, but do not appear in the camera roll.
It is the second time this problem occurs with iOS 5. I had to restore the iPhone to solve the problem, but could not retrieve my pictures and videos back.
Camera Roll "Empty":
Settings / About indicating that contains 4 videos and 19 photos:

I Found A Solution. It is iTools.
Tips:
1- Plug-in you iPhone using USB cable.
2-Open up the application (iTools) NOT (iTunes).
Download it from here http://itools-iphone-manager.en.softonic.com/
3- Choose your iPhone and go to FileSystem then DCIM.
4- Then Copy them all to your hard drive
You'll find all your missing images and videos. I did this and it worked well
I hope this will work for you too.

Why are my photos disappearing from my camera roll?

I just recently got a new iPhone 6 and my photos from my camera are disappearing everyday. I don't know why because i have plenty of space on my phone and even bought the 20 GB iCloud monthly plan. I used to have a little over a thousand pictures and now if you go to the top of the camera roll they will disappear in order everyday and generally stays around 300 pictures but fluctuates daily. Please help, I am losing valuable pictures that I wish to keep forever.

How exactly have you set up sharing? How did you set R/W on the Library "file"?

Hi Am1121,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have a backup of your iPhone on either iCloud or iTunes from the time when those photos were on the Camera Roll, you can restore from that backup and recover those photos. Please use the following article for information on restoring from backups.

How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

How do I put photos in an album and remove them from the camera roll?

I would like to be able to move photos into an album and remove them from the camera roll. Is this possible?
I take many photos of mundane things that I simply want to remember, such as serial number of products. I would like to save these photos for viewing, but I don't want them to appear in my camera roll, where I have to continuously scroll through many such photos to get to the ones that I want to view there.
I know that Apple has a "hide" feature, but it doesn't actually do anything. When I press-and-hold on individual photos, the photos stay in the camera roll: they aren't hidden at all. It's not clear what the purpose of this function is at all.

You don't do this, as the photos are in the camera roll. That is where they live. When you make an album you are simply making a list of pointer to your photos in camera roll.
If you remove them from the camera roll, then they are gone.
Photos in albums are not in two places. They are in only one place, the camera roll. The album merely contains pointers to those pics, so that you can categorize them however you like.
You should be importing these pics to your computer. I find it far easier to organize my photos on my computer, then sync them to the iPhone.

Is there a way to delete a photo from the CAMERA ROLL without deleting the same photo from an album?

My camera roll album is too big so I set up different albums to 'move' the phots out of the camera roll. After I moved photos I went to delete the photo from the 'camera roll album' but when I did, it deleted the photos from the other album I moved the photo to. Is there anyway to remove from camera roll while keeping it in the particular album?.

"Why doesn't Apple fix this ? "
Because it is not broken. it works exactly as intended.
"If Microsoft can do it certainly apple could figure it out."
Apple has it figured out. That is what is on the iphone.

HT1386 I am unable to synch photo albums from ipad 3 to itunes on my windows pc. In addition to camera roll and ipod cache albums, i have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!

Dear Community members,
I am unable to synch photo albums from iPad 3 to iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
In addition to Camera roll and iPod cache default albums, I have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. Eg - Family pix in a folder, Office pix in another, Plant pixs in another, House architecture pix in another.......all also exist in the camera roll.
I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!
I have ios5 on Ipad 3 and the latest Itunes on Windows PC.
As a precaution, I have used the windows "add pictures from...." to keep a copy in a separate folder in the windows desktop, but again it has all the pics mixed up together and not sorted as per the various albums in the ipad!
How to replicate the albums in the windows PC???
Regards

Sync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

Moving photos from the Photo Library to the Camera Roll

Hi,
I have recently moved all of the photos on my camera roll into the photo library, however I want to put some back onto the camera roll, but I can't figure out how to. I realize that there probably is no way because of what both of these albums are actually for, but I was wondering if there was any way possible.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Well I was able to move photos from the camera roll to the photo library by sending *the pictures via email to my dad's blackberry, then saving them to my computer from his phone, then putting them back on into the photo library*.
This is what I said originally.
{quote:title=Nissin101 wrote @ 4:08pm EMT:}{quote}
Alright I guess that answers my question then. However, just as I said I was able to transfer photos from my camera roll to my photo library, so at least that is possible.
I never said that I did it directly, neither did I mean to imply that I was looking for a direct solution. This I guess is where our misunderstanding comes from. I just did not feel like repeating the whole process I went through. Regardless, I would rather this thread not derail into who said what and whose misunderstanding who. I now know that it is not possible to get pictures from the photo library to the camera roll in any way, so my question is answered for now at least.

How can I copy photos from the camera roll to an album in ipad?

How can I copy photos from the camera roll to an already existing album in ipad?

If you are in thumbnail view in the Camera Roll, tap the Edit button in the upper right corner. Tap the photos that you want to add to the existing album. Tap - Add To - in the upper right corner and then tap - Existing Album.
You can only add camera roll photos to albums that you have created on the iPad. You cannot add them to albums that you synced from iTunes.

The only way to remove photos from the Camera roll is to delete them. You cannot move them directly from the Camera roll to another album.
Sync the photos to your computer, remove them from iPhone and resync the photos to your iphone.

Albums is a way or sorting photos. Photos aren't moved from the Camera roll. The Camera Roll consists of all the photos on the phone. If you delete from Camera Roll they are deleted everywhere but Photo Stream.
Are you using Photo Stream? Your photos, providing they wer recent should still be in Photo Stream. If you have Photo Stream set up on your computer they should all be there.

My iPhone's screen is unresponsive when emailing a photo from the camera roll

Hello all, first time here, and I have an odd issue with my iPhone 5, running iOS 6.1.4
If I go to my camera roll and select a photo, then go and select "mail" from the options, it brings up the typical email message(I use gmail)
but if I go to tap the address section, it takes 5-6 taps to get the phone to bring up the keyboard to enter an address. The weirdest part is,
if I go into my email and start a message normally, it only takes the 1 tap to get the phone to bring up the keyboard for the address. I have
tried to reproduce this in other apps, and it appears to only happen when I email a photo from the camera roll.
Any ideas? Maybe a backup/restore? Thanks in advance.

Restored as new, did not restore from a backup. Set up my gmail account, took a test photo and tried to email it, and problem persists. Guess it must be a hardware thing, just so weird it only happens in the camera roll and not in regular email.
Thanks for the advice and help everyone!

My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. Keep getting the message "unable to upload now"

My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. I keep getting the message "unable to upload now, try later"

I suffer same. AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem. I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media). To no avail. Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either. I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying. This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots. Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

You don't, only pictures for icloud/photostream.

I am unable to e-mail photos from the camera roll

I am unable to e-mail photos from the camera roll, but if I paste the photo into an e-mail I can send it just fine. This seem to be an "exchange"-problem from looking at people with similar problems (ex. Hotmail, but this is a company server), but I've been unable to find a solution. I could do this a week ago, other users on the same server can do it. Tried a soft reset and tried removing and adding the e-mail account, but still the same problem. Ideas anyone?

More info: I can "send" the e-mail, I hear the "swoosh"' but it is never received on the other end.
