Recovering Photo's on new iPod

Hello all.
I recently took my iPod to PC World to have a screen repiared, after a few weeks they told me they "can't fix the screen" and had "written the item off". So instead of sending my iPod back to me (worked fine, just the screen was cracked) they told me to come in store and collect a new one.
I now have the new iPod, is there any chance I can recover the photo's that were on the old iPod?
(Not sure if that makes sense!?)
Thanks,
Steve.

- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

Need to recover photos OFF of my IPod

Can anyone help me recover photos that are saved to my IPod (30GB model) but were inadvertently DELETED from my PC? I can still view them on my IPod. When I connect and try to pull the Photos folder over to my PC, I get a folder called "Thumbs" with five huge files in it with an ".ithmb" extension. I also get a file called "Photo Database." My computer doesn't know what to do with these.
Is there a way to recover the actual .jpg files from this information?
I really appreciate your help!

There are various programs out there for recovering photos from an iPod, have a look at the ones below. If you search the internet you can find more. Just be aware that what you'll be recovering will be photos optimised for the iPod so they won't be the same quality as the original full resolution versions:
iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
CopyPodPhoto Windows only
Tansee iPod Transfer Photo Windows only
iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
If you have full resolution copies of the photos on the iPod have a look here: Apple Knowledge Base article - Use Disk Mode to copy photos from iPod

Stolen ipod + how to download photos on my new ipod

Hi my ipod number 4J506Q80PS9 was stolen from my rugsack on a bus in London. Is it possible you could relocate it.
Forget it, I dont think its possible.
I bought another ipod 4J531833TDS, but am unable to download photos. It keeps giving me an error message [-36].
Can someone please help.
Thanks
Juliana

First, I wouldn't post the serial numbers in the post itself...just say that you lost an iPod Shuffle, whoever says they've found one, you have them tell you the serial number.
Second, I'd post the second question in the iPod Photo forum. You'll get more help there.

How do you go about uploading photos to the new iPod?

I've been wanting a portable hard drive for a while now, but a 60 Gig iPod will hold everything I have at the moment. I wanted to know if it was possible to delete the original images from your computer once you've loaded them onto the iPod, basically substituting it as a portable hard drive. What will happen if I load everything onto the iPod then delete everything that had been loaded and plug the iPod back in? Do you just select images or folders to be placed on the iPod? Help appreciated, thanks!

If you can use this as a portable photo hardrive, understand it's not ever a reliable backup so always be sure to have at least 1 other good backup of everything on your Ipod.

How to recover photos after restoring iPod touch?

Yesterday, there was an update for the iOS 6, I believe. When I pressed the update button, a message popped up saying that there was a problem with my iPod touch 4G and that I need to restore it. I had absolutely no idea why that message would pop up in the first place because my iPod was working just fine. But I couldn't update my iPod to the newest version if I didn't do what iTunes says... so I was about to restore my iPod, but then I was worried that all of my photos would disappear. So I decided to update my iOS later so that I could transfer all my files on to my computer. I then unplugged my iPod, and tried to turn it on but the home screen wouldn't pop - no matter what I did, all the screen showed was an itunes icon on top with a USB plug-in cord at the bottom. So I had no choice but to restore my iPod. The thing is, once I restored my iPod and all, my photos were all gone and I did not use iCloud as a back-up since a few months ago. All of my recent photos are now gone and I have no idea how to recover them. I've tried programs that aim to recover deleted photos, but they didn't work.
Is there a way to recover photos after restoring the iPod Touch?

Hello,
It is very important to backup your device to the computer before updating or restoring.
You can restore your device to a previous backup, all the photos that were there when you made the backup should return with it, but I'm afraid that any photos taken or saved after the last backup are unrecoverable.
I hope this helps.

Recovered photos - how do I get them onto my computer?

Hi,
My computer crashed and burned recently and all was recovered from DriveSavers. However - I have no idea how to get the recovered photos into my new computer - much less see them.
How do I do this?
Thanks in advance!

Where are these recovered image files? Are then on CD's? They do have the jpg extension on them, right? If so, all you need to do is create a new iPhoto library and import them. Just don't put them inside the iPhoto Library folder to import. They must be outside that folder. If they are on CD, drag them from the CD to the Desktop - put them in a folder if not already in one on the CD. Then import the folder into iPhoto.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Songs from old iPod to new iPod?

Anyone who knows how it is possible for me to get my 60GB from my iPod photo onto my new iPod movie? I'm going out of my mind, trying for days and days
If there's no way - I'm getting very sad (furious!) now I have paid a small fortune to iTunes...
Hope you can help me - Monnie

Please help me, recover photos from computer to new ipod

Ok, my daughter got her 4g 32gb ipod soaking wet, and it does not work anymore. We got a replacement last night, and the old ipod had a bunch of photos on it that she needs for art class. (We have a macbook pro for the synching). We hooked up the new ipod, clicked restore from a backup, and not all of the photos are on the new ipod. Also, none of her apps are there either. I really want to recover the photos, i have a feeling they are still on the macbook pro floating in limbo somewhere, does anybody know how to get the apps and photos from the old, dead ipod to the new one using the macbook? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for reading my question.

The backup only contains photos directly imported to the iPod such as the taken with the camera, saved screen shots and email saved attachments. Photo synced to the iPod are not in the backup.
It appears the the apps were not restored to the iPod since the apps themselves are synced to the iPod and not included in the backup. App data is in the backup. You can redownload apps at no addition cost by:

If yo tell us more about where the photos that do not appear came from we may be able to help your.

You'll likely need the assistance of some sort of 3rd party software. Keep in mind that the photos on your iPod are only scaled down thumbnail versions of the originals. So even if you do manage to copy them backt to your PC, they will not be in their full original resolution.
Do a simple Google search for "copy photos from ipod" and you should get a number of hits that can assist you.

P.S -I have not taken any backup of those photos. So please suggest any software or any other method.

If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup.

Video out from new iPod to TV (not photos)

OK, let's get an answer to this once and for all.
Can you play your own video (not purchased music videos or TV shows or iPhotos) on a TV/Monitor using the new iPod?
This article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300224 seems to say no.

Since that article was created on October 19, 2004 and the article indicates that it applies toiPod with color display (also known as iPod photo)I don't think it has anything to do with the new iPod that has video capabilities.
Maybe someone in the iPod > iPod with video Pre-release has an answer... or guess.

If i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it as the option 'set up as new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos and ect?

if i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it to the option 'set up as a new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and log into my apple ID so i can just restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos, contacts, ect. and then later i can add contacts that i need/want instead of them restoring them from icloud?
The reason i asked this question is because i have been wondering this a lot ever since i got an exchange on this ipod (and ive only had it for a few weeks now) because my last ipod had a lot of problems. so after i restored my ipod with my computer/itunes, i downloaded apps that i wanted, and then when i went to the storage to see how much storage was left, it said 0 bytes. i was freaking out because i didnt know how that could be, i mean, cause like, that is impossible when i just 'purchased' it, that the space was full but i looked and all my pictures were on this ipod and i already put them on my computer so i dont need them anymore thats why i wanna reset it now so there is nothing on it so i can have more space for stuff to do and download on it.
it is updated to iOS 8 but that happened when i purchased it, so i didnt have a choice to update it even though i didnt want to update to iOS 8...
and i hope you understand my problem..
i would REALLY REALLY appreciate it if someone could tell me a solution to my problem!!! thank you so much!

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

Can you transfer pictures from an old ipod touch to a new ipod touch without having the old ipod touch or the photos in Iphoto?

I somewhat recently got a new ipod touch after my screen cracked and the people at an Apple store said it would be cheaper to buy a new device completely. I followed everything they said about backing up my old device and when I went to pick up the new one, the store took the old one away.
Up until just a few days ago I did not realize Iphoto could hold pictures from your ipods. Mine never did it automatically, nor did anything ever seem to have the option to do. It just so happened that two days ago I was browsing the web when I noticed a website gave instructions on how to transfer photos. So I tried it and it worked for my new ipod while all the new photos.
But I was wondering if I could somehow get the old photos back from Itunes or my computer somewhere and transfer them into Iphoto or my new device. I was hoping that maybe if I could "back up" my old stuff onto my new ipod for a few moments it would show I have the old photos and I could transfer them into Iphoto and then restore the ipod touch back to what I have it currently.
If it helps, I'm pretty sure the old ipod touch I had was a 3gen as my new one I noticed was skinnier. As I said, I do not have the old touch anymore but I have the data in Devices on my Itunes if that makes a difference. Both my data for my old one and new one are in the Devices section of Itunes.
Thanks,
Dragonhatchling

How can I recover photos from old iphone icloud backup to new one?

Hello, I had an iPhone 4 which I lost and inside there were some great photos that I want now to recover. In the meanwhile I bought an iPhone5S and I just realized that inside the iCloud backup menu is saying that there is a backup of 3GB of my old iPhone. How can I see if in that backup the photos are there? I have connected my iPhoto App to iCloud but it only finds photos from my new iPhone and not the old one...
Thanks for your time.

Hi, Tiago, maybe you can get help from data recovery software. Now things get easy now.
As far as I know, there are three ways to recover deleted contacts and photos from iPhone 5 with iPhone Data Recovery.
Way 1: Recover deleted photos from iPhone directly
Way 2: Using iTunes Backup to recover deleted photos
Way 3: Using iCloud Backup to recover deleted photos
You can refer the way 3 of how to recover deleted photos from iPhone to recover photos from old iPhone iCloud backup.
Good luck to you.
