Photos on the IPAD
Hello,
I have learnt how to use my IPAD but something is strange I don't know how to get the photos downloaded on my ipad over the internet to my computer!
There is nothing on the menu to get them?!
any help welcome
thanks
I don't know how to get the photos downloaded on my ipad over the internet to my computer!
Your question was how to transfer your photos using the Internet. It is pretty tough to move anything through the Internet without using some kind of online service unless you setup your own.
iCloud is an Apple service, not a Microsoft Windows service. It does work with Windows and Windows may have their own service, but iCloud is an Apple service.
iCloud is also not necessarily a wireless service but is also an Internet service which can be accessed by wireless means. But by the looks of it all you wanted was to transfer photos to the computer which as already noted is easily done simply by using the sync cable, which does not need or use the Internet.

How do I delete imported photos on the iPad in less then 2000 clics?
Hi.
I've been using the iPad to collect photos form my digital cameras.
I have a few thousand of such photos on my iPad.
Today I wanted to delete them (because they take a lot of memory and are synched anyway after correction).
I could only find how to delete them by selecting them one by one on the iPad .
On the Mac, I use Aperture, which has no option (AFAIK) for deleting imported photos.
How stupid is that that you can import thousands of photos on the iPad and not delete them in under 1000 clics?
I just found out that I still have iPhoto on my Mac, so I am going to import pictures from the iPad to iPhoto and use the option to delete them.
Anyone with a less ridiculous solution?
Thanks in advance,

Not jailbroken. The OP asked about photos that were imported, not sync'ed.

The import photo albums generated using the CCK are accessable just like the "Saved Photos" album.

For reasons best left unsaid, in a recent rebuild of my iMac and Time Capsule, I lost all my photos. I do however have them all currently on my iPad. Is it possible to retrieve my photos from the iPad back to iPhotos (now Photos) on my iMac?
have the photos on the iPad been taken with the iPad camera or imported using the camera connection kit?
Or have they been synced to the iPad with iTunes?
You can download any photos to your mac by connecting the iPad by USB to to your Mac and import to Phots, but this way only photos from the Camera Roll will be imported. If your photos have been synced with iTunes, you can only mail them to your mac.
See: iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes
You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures taken by your device, or saved to it, from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device, email the photos from the device to yourself. Then download the photos from the emails to your computer. -
I'm new to iPhone and iCloud... I have lots of pics on my iPhone but only some appear on my iPad, they're in Camera Roll on the phone but random ones only have come into Photos on the iPad - can anyone help? Thanks!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream. -
I have uploaded photos from my brother's camera while on vacation to my iPad (1). Now that I wish to add even more photos to the iPad, iTunes say that it will replace all the photos once I sync again to add from an album on the iMac.
WHOA.
I'd like to upload the photos to the iMac! HOw can I do that?
How can I add photos from albums on the iMac and not lose the ones I currently have stored onthe iPad.
I cannot find this task addressed in any Help reference.
I do not understand why I cannot make a simple file transfer back and forth.
Many thanks!Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Hi, I'm a bit low on memory and I can't update the iOS. I need to move some photos off the iPad but I don't want to transfer them to a pc, I'd prefer to transfer them to iCloud and leave them there. Is that possible?
Yes, you could, because in this case you would have something like a backup in the cloud. BTW, personally I also like Flickr. Flickr offers you 1 TB (1000 GB) of free storage and automatic upload for photos since iOS 7 (it is a very attractive offer, at least for me)

Is there a way to import photos to the iPad and put in an album without having the photo also in the Camera Roll? I have a photo transfer app but when I import the album and photos they are also shown in the CR. When you delete them from CR they are deleted from the album too.
You can sync photos from your computer via iTunes, and each folder that you sync will get its own album : syncing photos. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next sync.
In terms of albums that you create directly on the iPad no, effectively you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you delete the original photo you will therefore also be deleting all pointers to it.
You could consider a third-party photo management app instead e.g. Photo Manager Pro -
I occasionally have the need to export photos from the iPad to an SD card (photos that were imported using the camera kit). This is useful for e.g. to print photos while travelling. So far I have not found this functionality anywhere, including in any apps available on iTunes. Can anyone help?
The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files from a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

On the PC I edited the "file"names of photos in a photo-album, so that the photos are in a logical order after the file names. When I synchronise this photos with the iPad, they are shown on the iPad in the chronological order when the photo has been taken.
How can I pursue the iPad to show the photos in the order of the "file"names of the photos instead of the order after the date of the photo?hello Allan
Thanks for the answer. Wouldn't it be a nice feature on the iPad if you can choose on the iPad itself in which order the photos should be sorted -> for instance after capture date, after filename or after sorting in iPhoto
Maybe this will be a feature for the next iOS release

Cannot delete orphaned photos on the ipad
Using iTunes in Windows 7. I had to reinstall iTunes (on a new computer), set it up w all my media and re-sync my iPad to this new installation of iTunes.
As a result of some confusion and syncing that were cancelled etc, I now have 4+ GB of pictures on my iPad that I cannot find any way to delete!!.
The "sync photos from" option for Photos for the iPad in iTunes is disabled. If I enable it, it copes t new set of photos. On unchecking the box, it deletes these newly copied photos and leaves the original ones on the iPad.
On the iPad, I can see the photos taking up space in Settings-General-Usage, but I have no option to delete them in there.
Even inside the Photos app, I see the albums, and photos collections, but if select some pictures, there is no Delete option to delete the pictures!!
How do I get rid of these pics and free up space on my iPad? but not delete them on my PC.
Plus, If I could, how do I select entire albums to delete them?
AlokeCorrect.

I can't get the hang of managing photos on the iPad. I have 2,000 photos and the only choice I see is to delete all of them or keep them? What is the best way of managing the photos?
I can tell you what I've done that works well for me. On my iMac, I created a set of folders that contain various photos. The folders on the iMac have descriptive names like "Cats", "Florida 2010", "Air Show" etc. In iTunes, I use the Photo pane to sync those folders with the iPad. On the iPad, the photos are all organized by the above folder names and are easy to show.
Using the folders works better for me than syncing with Aperture or iPhoto directly. Using folders allows me to choose which photos I want to include, and doesn't risk any damage or deletion of photos in Aperture/iPhoto.
I've also started using iCloud and Photostream. It has many limitations, but is a good way to get photos on your iPad quickly (but not in any real organized fashion). -
Duplicate imported photos on the iPad
Regarding duplicate imported photos on the iPad: Is there an automated way to detect and delete duplicate photos, specifically imported from the camera connection kit. Assume no iTunes syncing, mac or PC. First party solution preferred, third party app welcome.
Consider the senario, Camera card contents are imported, the card is reinserted into the camera without deleting previous import, new photos are taken, "skip duplicates" is ignored on new import, all photos on the card are imported, resulting in duplicates.
Happy to add additional information, just ask.Michael Superczynski wrote:

I noticed that after retouching photos in iPhoto on my iMac and then transfering to the iPad, the album in the iPad will still show the original photos before retouching. Is there a way to get transfer the retouched photos onto the iPad?
