Transferring an Album from iPad to iPhoto

I created an album on my iPad from existing photos (i.e., not photos created on the iPad). How do I get that iPad album over to iPhoto? iPhoto seems to only import iPad photos that were created on iPad rather than an album (of existing photos) compiled on iPad.

Albums from iPad to iPhoto

I have created several new photo albums on my iPad. I would like these albums to synch or transfer into iPhoto on my desktop. Is this possible?
Thanks,
John

At this time there is no way to do that. You can move the Photos, of course, but not the organisation. At time of writing the only thing that the two iPhotos share is the name...

I'm attempting to sync several albums from itunes to iphoto. When select to sync all albums it copies over the previous recorded album. I tried to sync the Albums individually and the same thing happens. Any ideas on how to sync my albums?

Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,
Mario

HT1386 I am unable to synch photo albums from ipad 3 to itunes on my windows pc. In addition to camera roll and ipod cache albums, i have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!

Dear Community members,
I am unable to synch photo albums from iPad 3 to iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
In addition to Camera roll and iPod cache default albums, I have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. Eg - Family pix in a folder, Office pix in another, Plant pixs in another, House architecture pix in another.......all also exist in the camera roll.
I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!
I have ios5 on Ipad 3 and the latest Itunes on Windows PC.
As a precaution, I have used the windows "add pictures from...." to keep a copy in a separate folder in the windows desktop, but again it has all the pics mixed up together and not sorted as per the various albums in the ipad!
How to replicate the albums in the windows PC???
Regards
Sohal NS

Sync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

Please stay focused if you're goign to answer. don't be talking just to hear yourselves talk. If you're going to answer, please just answer the question. Apparently everyone that has answered doesn't know. Putting the ipad usermanual is not helpful. If we wanted to read that monster we would have.
Wow!
I thought it might be worthwhile to put your useless piece of excrement up and let everyone enjoy it at least one more time.
Had you read "... that monster..." you might have twigged to the fact that what they are talking about is in fact how it's done and, contrary to your claim, those that answered do in fact know, and did answer the question. The fact that you don't know is understandable, the fact you're too lazy or uncaring to do anything on your own regrettable, and the fact that people are wasting time responding to you very much a one-time thing.

I'm getting a message that my iCloud storage is almost full (5.0 GB, 186 mb remaining). I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac. I've deleted all but 200 photos on each of these devices. Data storage is still same.

I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac. I have deleted almost all photos from both (about 200 remaining on each). I do not store tunes or videos. After making these changes, I still have the same message in iCloud.

Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > Select your device (listed as 'This iPhone' or 'This iPad') then look at the next backup size. Compare the 'Next Backup Size' to the 'Backup Size' on taht same screen. If the next backup size is smaller, then you have successfully removed some content from your device.
Now the question still lingers as to why your iCloud is still showing so full right? Well, iCloud keeps the last 3 backups from each device. It doesn't duplicate them, but it uses an incremental backup system. So basically your device's backup will take up as much space on iCloud as the largest backup of the last 3 backups. With that being said, your iPhone and ipad will eventually shrink the size of your backup (if that next backup size is smaller) in about 3 days (3 backups assuming your iOS devices backup once as day when you are sleeping).
Can I expedite this? Well of course you can. If you want, you can Delete the backup from both of the devices via that same screen then go back to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, turn iCloud Backups back on, then backup now. Keep in mind that if you do this, it will clear out your last 3 backups (and cannot be undone), but it may also take a long while for your iPhone and iPad to complete that inital backup after deleting the old backups.
I hope this helps. (My Recommendation: Basically check what's in paragraph one, then it will works itself out in a few days.)

How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to computer?

How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to my computer? I don't want them taking up space on my computer. iPad backups and apps on the cloud are enough to ensure my apps are backed up, so I don't understand why they need to be on iTunes too. I'm running Mavericks, iTunes 11.1.5 and iOS 7.0.6.

There isn't an app for that!
As far as I can tell there is no option to give you that control. It is worth noting that apps can be withdrawn from the store at any time. Should your device need restoring you need all the apps in your library to transfer to it before the app data can be successfully restored. Pulling that all down from the cloud would be time consuming.
If space is becoming an issue you should consider moving the library to a bigger drive (which you should also backup to another).
As a temporary measure you could try deleting some larger apps using Finder from within iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications while keeping the entries in your library. iTunes may complain during syncs that it cannot copy apps to the device because they cannot be found, but it should not clear them from the device. Test first on a single app that doesn't have any data that you would mind losing in case the behavior has changed from the last time I tested it.

How do I delete photo albums from Ipad 2?

How do I delete photo albums or photos in photo albums from IPad 2?

If the photos that you want to delete are in the Camera Roll, just tap on the photo that you want to delete, then tap the trash can in the upper right hand corner and select delete. If you are in the thumbnail view, tap on the curved arrow icon in the upper right corner and then tap on the photo or photos that you want to delete, then tap on delete in the upper left part of the screen.
If the photos that you want to delete are on the iPad from a previous sync with iTunes, you have to sync to iTunes to delete them. Deselect the photos in iTunes while your iPad is connected and then sync and the photos will be removed from the device

Move photos albums from Picassa to Iphoto

Hello,
Does somebody have a solution to move or transfer photo albums from Picassa to Iphoto?
Of course with as much as possible maintaining the titles, descriptions etc given in Picassa. Thanks for help.
Roland Demey

Is this Picasa the app or Picasa the Web Service?
You'll need to export from whichever. What metadata gets written to the files will be a setting on Picasa. If they are written to standards like Exif or IPTC then they will be picked up by iPhoto.
Testing on one or two first might be an idea.

Import photos from iPad to iPhoto keeping album structure

Hi All,
I have an iPad 2 with a camera connect kit. I've imported and organised several hundred photos using the kit and the iPad. I just purchased a Macbook Pro and want to import those photos into iPhoto. The photos all imported, but the album structure has been lost. How can I import photos from my iPad into iPhoto (or some other application) while keeping the album structure?
Thanks,
John.

Import Albums/Photos from iPad to iPhoto

Hi Everyone. My iMac hard drive crashed with iPhoto and all my saved photos. Luckily, they are ALL synced to my iPad and a copy is saved there.

Transferring a photo album from IPad onto a Macbook Pro?

I've created an album of holiday photos on my IPad. I would like to transfer the whole album to my Macbook Pro, at present only the photos are there (via photo stream). Could anyone tell me how to get the album from my Ipad onto my Mac please?

Hello
Nearly 2 years since this topic was posted, and sounds like we still can't transfer pictures edited and classified into files on iPad from iPad to Mac ?
does anybody have update ?
cheers!

Importing new Photo events from iPad to iPhoto '11

Hi,
I've recently bought the iPad Camera Connection Kit and I used it to import some photos from my camera: this process ended up creating a new event named with the date of the import (I haven't found a way to rename it so far) and an album called "Last import".
I thought that the new event would have been transferred to iPhoto '11 during the next sync with my MacBook. However I found out that's not so: I tried syncing my iPad both via wifi and USB, but the new event doesn't show up in iPhoto '11.
What should I do? Even clicking on "iPad", in iPhoto '11, it shows me only the photos that are in the camera roll...

thank you very much for helping me!
I eventually found out the solution to my problem: however I think it's really non-userfriendly and complicated.
I'll explain everything so that it can be useful for others who are in the same situation as me: I eventually found out that in iPhoto (on the Mac) you see all the photos in your iPad Camera Roll plus all the photos you've imported via the Camera Connection Kit (but they are all mixed up, not divided into albums/folders/whatever...). So if you want to import to iPhoto on your Mac the new photos that are on the iPad you have to manually select them in iPhoto an click on "Import selected...". Then you can rename the event and do whatever you want.
But that's nat all: when you re-sync your iPad iTunes "detects" a new event in iPhoto so it is automatically transferred into the iPad......so you end up by having (on the iPad) two events that contain the same identical photos: the one created automatically when the photos where imported through the Kit and another one imported during the sync process. In order to delete the first one you have to go to Albums and tap on "Last Import", than you have to manually select all the photos and finally delete them: in this way the event "magically" disappears.
I don't know if I've been clear enough but, as the whole process i so complicated, I think there's no other way to explain it.
However I'm very disappointed and in my opinion this is a really frustrating thing that Apple should fix asap!!

Sharing a photo album in ipad with iphotos on mac

i arranged a series of photos on my Ipad into an "album". I would now like to have that show up in Iphoto on my macbook, to build and order a hard-copy book, not a digital book. How can I get the album from my Ipad to Iphoto on the macbook?

Backing up with iCloud would not backup synced photos anyway. iCloud only works photos that you take with the iPad.
There are third party WiFi apps that will allow you to transfer the photos back to the Mac. You download the app to both devices and then you can send photos and videos to and from each device.
I use this one. There are others available in the App Store.
