Photos folder dissapeared from my iphone

Help plzzz !!
My iphone fell, but thank God, I had a protective case, so it was safe. But after a while, I noticed my photos folder have disappeared. But when I searched in the spotlight I found it there with all the pictures.
The question is how do I return it back to the screen ? Why did it disappear?
Heeeelp, I'm freaked out !!

Have you checked your other home screens? Swipe through them all - the Photos app cannot be deleted and cannot be hidden with Restrictions. Also, if you have 11 full pages of apps, the Photos app may have 'fallen off the end' - in that case, delete some apps or rearrange them in iTunes.
Yes, that's the first thing i did !! I checked all my 8 home screens but no use. I am also surprised as Why it disappeared !! What I am aware of is that only apps that are bought from app store can be deleted, not original iphone apps!!
any solutions?
Funny thing is I can find it in the spotlight but I don't know where it is located????

  • How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone to my PC using iCloud and Photo Stream?

    I am quite confused with how iCloud and Photo Stream work to transfer photos and videos from my iPhone to my PC. I recently ran out of my space on iPhone so I need to delete all of my pictures and videos but I first want to confirm that they have all been transferred over to my PC. I have iCloud setup but here lately I have been getting the warning message that iCloud could not perform it's backup because I was out of space on iCloud. I had not worried about it since I figured that all of my pictures and videos were on my iPhone anyway and the only reason I would need them on iCloud would be for a backup. Anyway, how can I confirm that everything has been transferred over to my PC? Then, what is the quickest way to delete all of my exisiting photos and videos off of my iPhone? I found the Photo Stream folder on my PC... Is everything automatically added to this when I connect my iPhone to my PC? If I delete something off of my iPhone is it deleted from the Photo Stream folder on my PC? Please help and thank you! I just don't want to lose any of my stuff!

    You don't move them to iTunes or an iTunes account.
    You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • Photos in my from my iPhone have same numbering as photos from my dig camera.  They all go into iPhoto fine but when I backup to my ext hard drive it will only save one with the name IMG 1002 and I have two separate images both with that name.  Help?

    Photos in my from my iPhone have the same numbering as photos from my digital camera.  They all go into iPhoto fine but when I backup to my ext hard drive it will only save one with the name IMG 1002 and I have two separate images both with that name.  How do I get them all to save on my ext hard drive and hope do I prevent this numbering overlap in the future?  I'm really hoping I don't have to go through and manually rename every single picture.  Thanks.

    How are you backing up the photos?  The best way is to backup the library itself as that will preserve your organizational efforts as well as all metadata like keywords, titles, faces, places, books, etc.
    You can use a backup application that does incremental backups.  Thus only the first backup is a full one and subsequent backups just copy those files that are new or changed. I use Synk Pro.  The lower cost version, Synk, will do the same job.  Other similar apps can be found at MacUpdate.com.  
    OR: upload your camera to a folder on the Desktop. There you can rename the files to something that is more informative than just the file name.  I use the date (international format) along with a brief desc: 2007-1-20-adian1stbday-001.jpg.  File renaming apps can also be found at MacUpdate.com.  Also you can give the folder an informatve name which will become the Event name when you import the folder of photos into iPhoto.

  • How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone 5 or Mac to an inactive iPhone 4S that my granddaughter uses ( it doesn't have Internet connection )

    How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone 5 or Mac to an inactive iPhone 4S that my granddaughter uses ( it doesn't have Internet connection )

    Two steps:
    you can first transfer photos from iPhone to computer and then drag them to the external hard drive. For your iTunes library, you can follow:
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Locate your external drive.
    Mac: On the desktop or Finder sidebar.
    3. Locate your iTunes folder:By default, the iTunes folder is located in:
    Mac: Finder > username > Music
    4. Drag the iTunes folder to your external drive. This can take a while if you have a lot of items.
    6. When the transfer is complete, your iTunes Library will have been successfully copied to your external drive.

  • HT201270 Hhow do I submit a photo to facebook from my iphone 4s?

    How do I submit a photo to facebook from my iphone 4s?

    Cheers Chris,
    I was not being disrespectful to the forum, I was however doing so to Apple and their usless customer service, technical support, website that takes you round and round in circles and total lack of contact us facility (unless you live in the US).
    Everywhere I go they want me to log in AGAIN and AGAIN and then they send stupid messsages to my phone that do nothing unlike they tell me. For something so simple it has taken days and I mean days for them to even let me find how to post the message asking for help and as for my local Apple store....don't get me started as they didn't know how to do it.
    It's not very well explained anywhere and I have done it by default following your reply so thanks. They go on about being a super company but ask them directly for help and nothing. In all honesty when I go to itunes it doesn't show you any way to remove such albums and all I can see is the sync thing that says what do I want to sync...I did it by syncing an empty folder from my pc, shouldn't be that hidden and un-explained.
    Cheers again and apologies if you thought I was being rude.

    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?

    It is a hard one.. laptops with small drives are a pain.
    What you need is a home media server.
    Some people use a PC running itunes for cost.. but that is nothing like as good as using a Mac mini.. they make great little HTPC device.. you can plug in large hard disks and store all your files and media. And share it with the network.. Read up apple's instructions on home sharing.
    https://www.apple.com/au/support/homesharing/
    For cost you can buy a mini from 2011 or 2012.. I would not recommend earlier ones.. the advantage of 2012 is they have USB3 ports. But you will pay more for them.. new mini is not as useful.. they have soldered in memory and you cannot upgrade.. the old mini was the most easily modified mac in the whole range. Uses little power and can be bought for a $300US for a good one second hand.. maybe less.

  • HT201317 My photos are syncing from my iPhone, to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but it is no longer syncing to my computer (Microsoft, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?

    My photos are syncing from my iPhone to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but they are no longer syncing to our home computer (Microsoft operating system, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?  I have since tried to remove and reinstall the iCloud application in my computer's control panel.  I have verified that I am using the latest Apple operating system and the latest iTunes.  I have reset my photo stream.  Not sure what else to try...   I was also having an issue with my calendar where it would sync from my computer to my iPhone but not vice versa.  Somehow in all the resetting that's resolved, but the photo issue is not.   Again - photos are going into the photostream, but not wirelessly being put into the file on my computer.

    To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

  • Photos menu dissapears from Apple TV

    Photos menu dissapears from Apple TV as soon as I upload my library from my computer (the one that is synching with ATV) If I go to sources and I select ATV instead of my library the photos menu is back. In either case the photos are there as I can see them in the screen saver.
    Everything was working well (including photos) for several weeks until today.
    I have reset the ATV, reset my iTunes with no luck.
    What should I do? Please help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The photos menu is only available when you select the ATV as your source. and not when you select a streamed library.
    This is because photos can only be synced and not streamed to the ATV.
    Therefore, there is no Photo menu in a streamed source library.
    See the fourth box on Photo syncing here - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305270

  • I can't download photos and videos from my iphone

    Hi,
    I have iPhone 4 with iOS 5. Can't download photos and videos from my iphone because my PC doesn't see it. Also my camera roll doesn't show right thumbnails and when i open a photo it shows it in low resolution. Only after i start editing it shows the photo itself in original resolution. iTunes recognises my phone but freezes on back up. When i updated my phone to ios 5 everything was wiped clear and i lost all of data that was in it. Please help me, i do not want to lose my data again.
    I plugged it in to another pc (win7) but no files in DCIM.

    appears to be one of the bugs associated with ios 5 that need to be worked out.  (i had a problem where I had music on my phone, the phone didn't recognize the music but the computer could find it)
    While I don't know how to fix the immediate problem, I have a workaround that will get you past this if you are willing...
    My suggestion is to turn on icloud and photostream on your iphone, and download and install the icloud control panel on your pc found here
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html
    take a "picture" (quickly press the home button and lock button at the same time) of each picture on your device so they show up in your camera roll and will sync to your photostream cloud.  This will in turn cause your pc to download the photos from your photostream cloud via the icloud control panel.  Your photos will be on your computer, and you will never have to sync your phone to get photos off your iphone again.

    When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
    Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
    My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
    After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
    Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

    No early version of iPhoto can open a Library from a later version.
    You can try revert the Library with iPhoto Library Manager

  • HT1688 How to transfer photos and videos from my iphone to my pc laptop?

    Hi,
    I have a pc laptop and a iphone 3GS. How do I transfer the photos and videos from my iphone to my pc?
    Please help.
    Thank you!

    I've seen posts before from users that report their computer suddenly stopped seeing new photos on their device.  I'm not sure what the solution would be though.  At least we know it's not a connectivity or usb device driver issue.
    You could try transferring your photos (and videos) to your computer wirelessly using an app like PhotoSync.  Once transferred, delete them from your phone to eliminate a possible data corruption issue that may be causing this problem.  Then, if you still want the photos on your phone, you could then transfer them back using PhotoSync.
