Photos - my photos are duplicated in Albums, Photo Stream and Events. Does this take additional memory?

I need instruction and not understanding Photos. When I put photos from my Canon Camera through the Apple Connector - SD Card Reader, the photos are displayed in the Photo App. They are duplicated in many areas: Photos, PhotoStream, Albums, and Events. Is this the way Apple does this? Can I just have photos in one place in the app? BTW: my PhotoStream setting is on on the iPAD4 and on my iPHONE 5. Should I turn off? If they are duplicated in all areas, are they taken up space on my iPAD?Please advise.
Also, can I delete multiple photos on my iPAD4 without selecting each one? I don't seem to see a Select All option. Also, I am not sure when I see this dialogue box on the iPAD4, but it seems I only get Delete Everywhere instead of just Delete. Why? Is there a setting I need to know about.
When I connect my iPAD4 through the hardwire to my PC, can I just create a folder and copy my photos on my iPAD4 to my PC. They will not remove them from the iPAD4, correct?

Basically within the photo app, there are sever views available, each having a different purpose, but only one file per image (at least I'm fairly certain that's how it works). Start off with the Photos section of the user guide (link below). It may not answer all of your questions, but will give you a good starting place.

You need to unsync them. If you uses the folder syncing method either remove them from your syncing folder or change which is you syncing folder. Also see:

My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon? icon for faces, My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon? icon for faces

My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon, and how can i make an album.. Ive got 800 photos in one album..

I would add to King Penguin's comment and say that Places also only works with photos that are tagged with geographical information (knows as geotagging to us photographers). I've done this with my photos and it's really cool. You basically tap the Place tab in Photos and a map of the world is displayed with pins showing the areas of where the photos were taken. Touch on a pin and you get the photos associated with that area. Neat-o!

When I back up my I phone 5s or my ipad2 camera roll, contacts and documents does this save in the cloud all to view even if a photo has been removed from camera roll?

How do i change my iCloud account on my iPhone? I want to change it to my husbands so all of our information syncs, but will this completely delete my iCloud account? and by doing this how will my phone change (such as contacts, photos etc.) ?

Bad idea.
What information do you want to share, exactly? You can share contacts, reminders, and calendars with other iCloud users without the need for both of you to use the same iCloud account. You can authorize both phones to use apps purchased under the same Apple ID without sharing an iCloud account.
Sharing an iCloud account is a bad idea in general. There is too much opportunity for someone to damage or delete data that will affect both.

I have a 4s Iphone and want to add a date and time stamp to photos taken on the regular camera installed on the phone. Does this require a separate app?

For such to be visible, yes. Many such apps in the app store.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to turn the services you want to sync (calendars, contacts etc) on on both devices from settings > iCloud.

TS3992 my icloud keeps saying "loading" next to storage and says "icloud storage details are currently unavailable. try again later." what does this mean

Apple has been having a number of server issues today and this may be related to that. Give it some time and try again later.

Photo after syncing are mixed into album

I've more than 3000 photos on my PC (windows 7) organized in several folder, all at the same level.
After syncing these photos with iTunes (vers. 10.5.3.3) on iPAD (not jailbroken !)
i've found that in some albums photos are not the same in the corrisponding folder on PC.
Photos are mixed between album.
Do I expect a new version of the Apple app? or do I bought a 3rd parties app? do You know some one with better performance?
Why a bug so big in a product so good?
This is not the only a my problem, also a friend of mine with an iPAD 2 has the same problem.
Thansk for answer and/or suggestion.

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over into the correct albums - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

I deleted all my photos but there are still 17GB of photos on my ipad.

I synced my iPad with my mac and I imported all my photos and videos. Then I deleted all of them from my ipad. When I open the photos app there isn't a single photo there nor a video. But when I open my settings to view how much storage I have it says that there are still 17gb of photos on my ipad.
Does anyone have a solution to my problem?
Thanks for your help!

it sounds like photo stream is enabled. Go to settings>icloud>photos>turn off off the following:
iCloud Photo Library (Beta)
Upload to My Photo Stream
iCloud Photo Sharing

I hope this helps you

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Yes, I know. Which is why I won't argue over it. As I said I've never had an issue with it when travelling.
And Apparently the purchase is working fine for the OP, its the actual download that gets hung up.
Anyway, If the Purchase is going fine, then its more likely an issue with the internet connection.
Are you on Cell service when trying to download rather than Wifi?

If the photos were synced to the iPod you have to unsync them. Unsyncing is also covered here

I am really upset I have had the iphone 3 and wheni restore it with the faulty iphone 4 it worked but not now! HELPP

what photos are you talking about?
Photos taken with an iPhone are stored in the camera roll. Like any digital camera, it is advised that you import these into your computer for safe keeping. That's where the photos should be--back on your computer for you to be able to resynch back to your phone.
As far as contacts, again, it is recommended that you synch your contacts with a contact manager like Outlook or Address Book. That's where the contacts should reside.
Have you not been using your phone as recommended? If not, well, now you know why these steps are recommended. The iPhone is NOT designed as a storage device.
