Photos on Iphone from PC to Mac- not "iphone photos"

I uploaded all of my pictures to my iphone from my PC under the impression that when I opened itunes on my Mac it would give me the option to upload those pictures to my computer.... Does it only allow you to upload pictures taken from iphone or is there a way I can get all those pictures on to the Mac a different way... I no longer have that PC and will be devastated to lose all those pictures otherwise!

There is no way to do this that Apple supports and if you are able to, photos transferred to the iPhone are optimized for viewing on the iPhone. The original resolution of these photos will be lost, which is why Apple doesn't include the option.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices?

    I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?

    It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer.  Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results?  If so how do I do this?  Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is?  Very new/green user here

  • How do you transfer photo albums to the computer?  When I hook to USB, it only shows photos from the camera icon, not the photos icon.  I am trying to save pictures for the in-laws from their ipad.

    I have no clue that you mean by it only shows photos from the camera icon. It has to show the photos in the camera roll of the photos app since those are the only photos that you can import via the USB cable.
    There are other ways of transferring photos to a computer, but they involve using third party apps. There are WiFi transfer apps that will do this. DropBox will also let you upload photos to a public folder and then download them to a computer.

    You cannot drag pics from computer to iphone.  This has never been a feature of iphone.
    You sync them as you would anything esle.
    You select photos from the photos tab.  Whatever is selected will be on your iphone.  Anything not selected will not be. Make sure that everything you want on your iphone is selected, then sync.

  • How do i reconfigure my iphone from windows to mac?

    I would like to reformat my iphone from windows to mac without loosing the music on my iphone. Is this possible? Or would I have to factory reset my phone?

    There is no reformat necessary as such. An iPhone can only synchronize to a single computer, though, so when you connect your iPhone to the new computer, you'll be told that your iPhone is synched to a different computer and given the choice of erasing the content on the iPhone or transferring iTunes Store purchases to the new iTunes. The best approach is probably to copy the entire contents of the iTunes folder in your Windows system to your Mac. Then your iPhone should still think it's being synched to the same library and be fine. Someone here can point you to instructions on how to move your iTunes library if you need them.
    Regards.

  • Removing a iphone from syncing with my work iphone and ipad

    I have recently got a new iphone from work and given my iphone (4) to my daughter (mum still paying the contract!) how do I stop her getting my imessages, which still show on my old phone? Can't seem to remove from my account..

    you can go to settings and store and sign the appleID out
    but easy way is to restore it to fectory settings and start it over as a new one
    of cause this does mean she will loose all apps bought with your appleID but there is no way around that happening unless you also disable iMessage support in settings

  • Can someone explain to me why iTunes will only sync photos ONE WAY from my PC to my iPhone, and not vice versa?

    I have photos on my iPhone and want to put them on my PC.  Should be straightforward, right?
    So I go ahead and install iTunes, and plug in my phone, and sure enough iTunes tells me I've got 1610 photoes on my iPhone.  It won't let me actually SEE them, of course.  Fine (no, not really fine).  So I create a blank folder on my PC and proceed to do a sync.  My options are to (a) Sync FROM "My Pictures" to the phone, or (b) choose another and sync FROM my PC TO the phone. 
    Where is the option to sync FROM my phone TO my PC????
    It boggles my mind that I have to go outside of iTunes and use Windows Explorer to copy the photos from the phone to the computer.  So I go to "My Computer" and within the iphone Internal Storage there is only a DCIM folder and two sub-folders.  There are only 800 photos there!  Where are the other ones?
    Evidently what I can see from Windows Explorer is ONLY the pictures I took with the phone itself, and NOT the pictures I saved from email attachments or instant messages!  Why? Where are they and how can I access them???
    SO far, the closest thing I have been able to find is to have to buy a third party App like "Simple Transfer" to do this.  Is this really the case?  Or am I missing something?

    Photo sync is only one way, computer to iPhone.
    To get pictures from the iPhone to the computer, copy them to the computer as you would with any other device.
    Pictures saved from emails or instant messages (if done on the device) are in the camera roll.
    Pictures previously synced to the device from a computer are not available to be copied off the device.  They should already be on a computer.

  • How do i transfer individual photos or albums from my iPhoto to my iPhone?

    I have photos that I imported to iPhoto and tinkered with them on there. Now I want to put them onto my iPhone 5s to ultimately post them to Instagram. However, when I go into iTunes and attempt to sync the photos from that it just says that my photos can be downloaded via Wi-Fi or a mobile network via iCloud. Well I can't as I cannot see a way to do it. There is no photo stream option and no other apparent way to do it.  How do I do this?

    If you have not enabled the iCloud Photo Library (beta) on your iPhone you can add them to My Photo Stream from iPhoto on your Mac and then save them to your iPhone's Camera Roll from the My Photo Stream album on your iPhone.

  • ICloud Photos Mac not syncing photos/videos

    I've set up iCloud Photos on my iPhone and iPad mini and Mac Retina Pro.  The iPhone and iPad both sync photos and videos from iCloud.  The Mac does not.  It looks to me like everything is set up correctly.  Obviously it's not but I can't figure it out.  Ideas?

    I have a similar issue. My difference is that our iPhone 6, iMac (via the Photos app), and iCloud all were initially in sync (after about a week of uploading). However, now, only the iPhone and iCloud are in sync. Our iMac hasn't added any of these new pictures/videos since 4/16, even though we've taken roughly two dozen pictures/videos since that date. I also made a batch change to the dates on some of the pictures on our iMac via the Photos app, and those changes also have not carried over to iCloud nor to the iPhone.
    Any ideas?

  • Transfer iPhone from PC to Mac without losing anything

    I know this question has been asked dozens of times, but I just want to get an answer that I know will work for me.
    When I got my first iPod I had to set it up on my family's computer as I didn't own a computer. Later on I got an iPhone, and while I had my Mac, I set it up with the family computer to keep my music.
    I've been wanting to move my iPhone to my Mac for awhile, but all the guides I've found don't give me all the info I need. I want to keep my iPhone exactly as it is, so that when I connect it with my Mac it acts as if nothing is wrong. I've seen how to consolidate the iTunes library, but I'm confused about App Data. I want to keep all my scores on my games, and I haven't seen a straight answer on whether they will stay.
    So is there a way to move my music, apps, photos, texts, data, app locations, play count, notes, contacts, etc. to a new computer? If so is there an online guide that outlines the best way to do this? Is it as easy as following this guide? [url]http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751[/url]
    My PC is running XP and my MacBook Pro is running OSX 10.6.8.
    Thanks in advance!

    Basically you need to move the Entire iTunes Library from the PC to the Mac...

  • Transfering iPhone from PC to Mac

    I sold my desktop PC a few weeks ago and saved all the backup info and other folders. After selling the computer, I hooked my iPhone up to my wife's PC laptop and it let me back it up. I ended up replacing my 3GS with a new one, but when I restored it from the backup I made on my wife's computer... all it restored was the notes and photos and such... not the apps and saved games.
    I bought a MBP last night and would like to transfer all of that info including backups to this Mac and restore the phone from a backup that includes the apps and saved games.
    My question is, what is the best way to transfer the files to the Mac... where are the folders located and what do I truly need to transfer in order to get everything back on my phone. Also, what is the process I need to go through in order to correctly restore everything including apps and saved games?
    Thanks.

    I end up asking him some questions about the battery and he tells me it's fine to leave the Macbook plugged in at all times, when the Mac genius at the Apple store last night told me that the cells in the battery need to keep fresh and it's best to drop it to 5% and then recharge to 100% instead of keeping it plugged in all the time.
    There is nothing wrong with keeping your MacBook plugged in all the time as long as you go through at least one complete discharge and charge cycle once a month, which can be done at one time if the computer is never unplugged, or this can be done gradually at different discharge and charge levels when using the computer when unplugged at various times followed by plugging it back in before the batter is completely discharged, which is common and usually the norm with a laptop.

    *For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally*. Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time. *An ideal use would be a commuter who uses her MacBook Pro on the train, then plugs it in at the office to charge. This keeps the battery juices flowing. If on the other hand, you use a desktop computer at work, and save a notebook for infrequent travel, Apple recommends charging and discharging its battery at least once per month.* Need a reminder?

    Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time as in never unplugging it, which usually isn't common with a portable computer.
