Photos folders synchronization

Hello all,
I have an iPhone 4, and a Windows 7 PC plus iTunes. Usually, I make a lot of photos. Both for work and for fun.
About 2 months ago, in order to create some folders for the photos, I copied all the photos from the iPhone to my computer, using Windows Explorer. On the computer I placed the photos in folders, I deleted the photos from the iPhone, and syncronized the phone with the computer, via iTunes. This way, the photos folders were also created on the iPhone. Everything is fine up to this point.
Since I do not need duplicates of my photos, I deleted them, and the folders, from the computer, knowing that they are in the iPhone. Today, after 2 months, and 190 new photos, I want to keep the old folders in my iPhone and to create new folders with the new photos. Suprise - using Windows Explorer, I cannot see the photos which are in folders in the iPhone. More than that, the iTunes only gives me the option to synchronize the computer with the iPhone, but only by creating in the iPhone what is in the computer, and not viceversa. Since I deleted the old photos and folders from the computer, I fear that, by syncronizing, they will also be deleted from the iPhone.
I am thinking to send myself the photos from the folders, by e-mail, but it will take me some 30-40 mails to do that, so I was looking for a simpler way.
Do you have some suggestions? In those folders, I have some videos as well.

"Since I deleted the old photos and folders from the computer, I fear that, by syncronizing, they will also be deleted from the iPhone."
Correct, they will be deleted from your phone. The photo sync is one way: Computer to phone. You'll need third-party software to extract these photos from your phone, as Apple makes no provision to do so. Bear in mind, these photos were reduced in resolution for display on your phone, there is no way to recover their full resolution.

  • Photo folders on itouch

    i wanted to know how to sync various photo folders on my itouch. it doesnt allow me to select "selected folders" so everytime i sync new folders from my flash drive it deleted the folder that already exists in my itouch .... help! please!

    Well, syncing is what it is - it synchronizes the content of your photo folder to your iPod. So what you need to do is set up a pictures folder wherever you like and then put pictures in that. You can have one layer of folders in it that will create folders on your iPod. When you want to remove pics from your iPod, remove them from that folder.
    Hope this helps.

  • Photo Folders in IOS 7.1

    I have an iPad (2nd gen.) running IOS7.1 (latest update).  I want to have separate photo folders in IOS7. I was able to do this on my iPod (3rd gen.) running IOS 5.1. I want to do the same thing on the iPad. I tried to drag and drop the folders onto the iPad but this won't work. I'm using a Win 7 laptop as my computer.

    The folders need to be in a single containing folder and sync the container to achieve what yoyu are asking.

  • What's the best way to move photo folders from internal to external HD using LR to track change?

    I am trying to move my photo folders from Pictures on an iMac running Mavericks to an external HD as my main photo storage and to do so with LR 5.6 keeping track of the folders. I have 20K plus photos in the Catalog in the iMac's HD and wouldn't want LR to loose track of the photos. I am not creating duplicates but moving all the files w/original photos and edits.
    Is there a good and safe method to use LR to perform this task?

    In your operating system, move the photos to the external HD, keeping the folder structure unchanged, and then in Lightroom reconnect using these instructions: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

    You need to select and sync them in one go. Photos that you sync from your computer can't be deleted directly in the Photos app, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync - so you've effectively been telling iTunes to replace the folder that you've just synced with a new folder

  • Question about photo folders

    I have some photo folders on the Touch, but once they are on, how do you delete them if you need/want to?

    Hi njchalupa,
    Currently you can't delete photos or photo albums directly from the iPod Touch.
    If you want to delete an entire photo album, you'll have to connect your iPod to the computer and uncheck the correspondent photo folder.
    If you want to delete certain photos from a photo album, you'll have to delete or take out those pictures from the folder on your computer.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can we get a new computer to recognize photo folders on the iPhone so they can be deleted from the iPhone?

    My wife has an old Windows Vista computer that is unable to operate the new IOS. I have installed iTunes on my Windows 7 computer and authorized the computer on iTunes. We are unable to delete/recognize photo FOLDERS from her iPhone 4 on my computer within iTunes. The only photos I can pull off her phone are being recognized by the windows system as a camera plug-in from her Camera Roll on the iPhone.

    iOS does not operate on the computer.
    If she has Vista, she can run iTunes 11 which is needed for iOS 7.

    Do you want to delete the photos on the camera or copy them back to the computer?

  • How do I create photo folders in my iPad

    How do I create photo folders in my IPad ?

    You have to create the folders on your iMac first, then sync with your iPad using iTunes.  Then, the folders show up as albums on the iPad.

    Go under the photo tab and look at the choices.

  • Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty

    Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty.  The same photo folders in Windows Photo Gallery are full of photos. How do I fix this?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Photo Folders, unable to view them

    I can see photos from a particular folder,  but when I go to photo folders all I see is a black box. I am unable to see them but it will scroll thru them? I can select a random location in the black box & it will the change photos but I never know what I going to get.
    I tried closing FCP then open iPhoto first & then open FPC but no good.
    Any suggestions?  thanks

    I relaunched holding Option-Command & reset preferences. My photos are now there thank you. But now all my videos are gone?

  • Photo folders in Finder disappeared

    My photo folders in Finder from 6/07 to present disappeared after a crash and a rebuild. The library reverted to the last time I crashed and rebuilt which was in May. I've tried finding .jpgs over 30kb using Finder,I tried the File Salvage program,nothing. Just boom gone. iPhoto doesn't see them, presumably cuz they aren't there. I'm using iPhoto 5.04. Oh yeah, I did Disk First Aid from the boot disk as well. Any ideas? Could my database before the (most recent) crash be in the Mac bowels somewhere since apparently my rebuilt db from 5/07 was?

  • View photo folders not files in CS5 Bridge

    How do I get back to the view of my photo folders?  I can only see individual photo files, and not all of them now.  Don't know what I did to make this happen.  I have a 2009 iMac and CS5 Bridge (Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium). 

    How do I get back to the view of my photo folders?  I can only see individual
    photo files, and not all of them now. 
    Go to the folder panel (if it is not in view go to menu window and select
    folders panel) and inhere choose the main folder where your images are
    nested in subfolders.
    If you select a main folder with only subfolders it shows you only folder
    icons, if there are also images in that main folder itself it shows you both
    the files and folders.
    Using the command 'show items from subfolders' (menu view) you get both
    folder and all the files from that main folder.

  • Aperture Library photo folders are not updated in iTunes view

    The list of photo folders in Aperture doesn't update which doesn't allow me to select them and sync with my iPad. Selecting ALL would be too many for the iPad (60,000 plus).
    I put new photos into Aperture 3.0 and can't get them onto my iPad.
    Suggestions?

    I can't really help, but I have the same problem. I really need to convert one of the RAW images in Aperture to a DNG using the Adobe DNG converter, but the converter can't find the image because the folders haven't updated.
    I have restarted Aperture, the computer, all of the programs. Nothing seems to work. I don't know why the folders in the Pictures folder wouldn't match the folders in the Aperture Library. Most of them are the same, why not all?

  • New Photo Folders for Ipod Touch

    How do I make new folders for certain photo groups for my Ipod Touch.I have folders already made up on my computer with the photos I want in them,but when I go to upload them on my touch,it puts all my photos under photo library.I know you can make new folders and name them,so could someone tell me how?? Thanks

    It's simple. On a Windows system you place all your photo folders in the My Pictures folder. When you sync and tap on Photos on the touch you'll see at the top Photos Library with a count of every photo you have. That is created by the iPod and you can't remove it (you can, but it will come back). Then you'll see each folder you put in My Pictures. Tap on any one of them and you'll see all the photos in that folder!
    So just set up your My Pictures to have a set of folders, each of which has the pictures you want under each name.
