Transferring pictures not on camera roll to Macbook Pro-HELP!

Hello everyone,
A year ago or so my harddrive on my Macbook Pro unmounted and I lost everything.  Well before that happened I had uploaded thousands of pictures to my Ipad 2 and so those are pictures not on the camera roll but in I guess a different kind of 'gallery'.  Also, I am not very computer savy so I apologize if this answer is simple.  But my problem is that I want to be able to take all of the pictures off of my Ipad 2 and get them back onto the Macbook but when I hook the sync cable up and Iphoto opens it only gives me the option to sync the camera roll gallery.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you everyone!

You cannot import synced photos back to the Mac. Only camera roll photos will import. There are third part WiFi transfer apps that will allow you to transfer photos from any album on the iPad back to the Mac. There are a number of these apps in the App Store. I use this one.

  • How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

    How can I export pictures NOT on camera roll from my ipad to my iMac?

    Hello jcamengual,
    I was having the same problem you're having - for those that don't understand... I synced photos on to my ipad which placed them inside "photos" not cameral roll. I then sold me laptop as I thought I had no need for it. When I bought my new iMac I tried to use my external hard drive which had my back up on, however my hard drive no longer works. Thus unable to retreive my photos on to my iMac!
    Anyway... long of the short of it is theres no easy way. But there are a few ways. I'm currently using icloud's photo stream. As long as you have photo stream set up on your mac you can create a shared stream on the ipad with a friend. This shared stream will appear on your mac, you can then "import photos" straight from the shared stream.
    Alternativley you could use something like drop box. Sync your pictures from iPad to drop box. Then download from drop box to Mac. As I said, no easy way that I have found but this does work. It just takes a long time.
    Key Facts:
    You can have 5000 photos inside a sharred stream
    You can have 100 sharred streams
    Therefore you can stream 500,000 photos - I hope you don't have that many.

  • Transferring picture on camera roll to macbook pro

    I did a search on here and couldnt find anything about this so could anyone tell me the easiest way to get a picture in my camera roll on my iphone to my macbook pro so I can print it off? Thank you in advance for your help.

    The same way you would with any digital camera.
    Import from whatever photo management program you use (i.e. photoshop, iphoto, camera and scanner wizard, image capture).

  • Transferring pictures to the camera roll to restore it on the "places" app.

    Hello,
    I really love the "Places" app on the iphone whre all my pictures get automatically sorted to where the picture was taken. Unfortunately, I transferred some of my holiday pictures to my laptop and the pictures were removed from from the camera roll. Is there any possible way to transfer the picture that I transferred to my laptop back to my camera roll? This is just so I can get the picture back on the "Places"  tab. The pictures were originally taken by my iphone.  Or is there any other alternatives?
    would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

    One of the drawbacks to PhotoStream...  You can delete all photos or none of them.  I think the idea is you just leave them in there for the full 30 days and don't worry about trying to manage them.  I've heard that they don't count towards your 5 GB of storage, but have not personally confirmed that.  (I don't take photos with my iPad, and don't keep wifi on on my iPhone, so PhotoStream isn't much use to me.)

  • How do I delete pictures not in camera roll

    How do I delete pictures previously synced to icloud, but no longer in my camera roll?
    (I want to get a new phone and transfer only the pictures currently on my iphone 4S camera roll)
    I'd like to avoid having to delete all pictures I've taken when information is transferred to my new phone.
    I currently have the icloud settings turned off, however I have had icloud on in the past which has
    many pictures I no longer want.
    How do I login to icloud on my pc?

    Hi bckop,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    You can import the pictures and video currently on your iPhone (camera roll) to your computer.  Then you can manually sync with iTunes to copy only the images you want to your iPhone.   If you don't want the images in your Photo Stream to appear on your iPhone and PC, you can turn Photostream off in your iCloud settings.  You can also delete images from your Photo Stream that you no longer want.
    Here are a few articles to help you with this:

  • Pictures not in camera roll

    I recently updated to the iOs 5 on my ipod touch.  I like the new feature that allows you to quickly get to the camera without unlocking the ipod.  However the pictures and videos I took that way can't be found.  Where did they go? 

    Thank you and yes I am sure.  I did find them but I had to go thru photos and into my albums.  If I go into my camera and click on camera roll they are not there?  Is there a way to get them there?

  • Transfer movies from camera roll to macbook pro

    How do I transfer a movie from camera roll in iPad 3 to Macbook Pro. It doesn't seem to show up in iTunes.

    You don't use iTunes to import photos and vidoes.
    When the iPad is connected to the Mac - launch iPhoto. The iPad should show up on the left side under the devices heading. Click on it, you can import the videos from the camera roll using iPhoto.

  • Office for mac 2011 not working correctly on new Macbook Pro- Help

    I have a MacBook Pro from September and had One to One transfer all files/programs (including 2008 Office).  I then purchased the Office for Mac 2011 program and they installed it (I guess they did not remove the older program).  It has never worked correctly and I have tried to contact Microsoft to no avail.
    None of the documents open with Fonts intact (Word and Excel open up blank though the graphic elements show up.  I have to Select All and choose a font to make it show up. 
    Powerpoint is barely functional (none of the layouts actually show up when I select them, the sidebar of slides does not update as I type or try to change themese, etc.  And then when I type, the program freezes and then shuts down.
    I have uninstalled 2008 and 2011 and then re-installed 2011 but the same issues occur.  Someone on the microsoft community told me to remove my duplicate fonts, I ddi that and the same issues still occur. My brother has the same laptop and Office for Mac 2011 and no issues.
    Can someone help me basically try to start fresh- should I uninstall again? (I waas told that installing/uninstalling too many times can further the problem).
    Help!
    Thanks,
    Bernice

  • Brother Printer HL-5250DN not working with my new MacBook Pro - HELP

    Hello there, I just purchased a new MacBook Pro - I've had to use PC (yuck) for work and had an IBook which was great until the dog knocked it off the dresser ...... Anyway, so I've replaced it with the Pro and love it - of course. Except......
    My problem is this Brother printer (HL 5250DN) which has been an absolute workhorse, but try as I might I can't get this Pro to print - unless I physically hook it to a USB port and print, which defeats the purpose of having a wireless network allowing me to print from anywhere.....
    I have tried suggestions from previous posts (unzipping the gz files - resetting the printer) but still nothing works... Any other suggestions - I'm going nuts here and Brother help line can't seem to give me a solution that works... HELP..... I really want to get going (New Years Resolutions and such) on my new projects and am absolutely grounded with this thing....
    MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.5.5)

    Check the Dell website for compatible printer drivers you can download and install.
    Once the drivers are installed, open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
    Then click + to add the printer.

  • I have pictures on my phone that I can not delete.  There is no trashcan.  These pictures are in albums and not the camera roll itself.  How can I delete them?

    My wife and I decided that we needed separate accounts for our two 4s phones.  To do this, the data from her phone needed to be transferred out, then transferred back in under the different account.  The pictures were transferred back in using Itunes.  These appear as separate albums in the "photos" app.  I would like to delete some (or all) the pictures in these extra albums, but there is no trashcan to put them in.  I can only delete pictures in the "camera roll" itself.  These pictures are taking up valuable memory and I would like to free up some space.  How can I delete them?

    You're welcome. 
    As it relates to pictures, iTunes will only do two things: it will transfer photos from your computer to your device (if you select to Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings); and it will include the camera roll photos on your device in your device backup (if you back up to your computer rather than to iCloud).  It does not transfer photos from your phone, only to your phone.  (Transferring photo from your phone to your computer is done by importing them as expained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.)
    The only area where you might lose pictures by syncing would be if you synced your phone while selecting Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and the photos you had previously synced to your phone from your computer were no longer on your computer.  iTunes is syncing photos one-way; ensuring that the photos transferred from your computer match the photos still on your computer.  If you delete the photos from your computer, then sync, the deleted photos are then removed from your phone.
    This does not effect photos in the camera roll or in your photo stream, it only effects photos in the Photo Library album and albums containing photos in the Photo Library album.
    The deleted photos would have been placed in the recycle bin when you originally deleted them from the computer.  Nothing is put in the recycle bin when syncing with iTunes.

  • Took photos with iphone 4s. Pic displays in picture preview, but not in camera roll. Any advice? Pic should be on phone somewhere.

    Took photo with iphone 4s. Picture displays in picture preview on bottom left, but is not in camera roll. Pic should be in phone somewhere since it's in preview. Any advice?

    Ok try this kennylebouef,
    Open multitasking by double tapping the home button (at the bottom), a row of apps you've recently used should appear, tap and hold the photos app until it wiggles and displays an x, tap the x to close and then reopen the camera roll app. Let me know if it works. It's odd and frustrating, I know.

    How large is your movie?  Is it possible that you could output it as a QuickTime file and then burn that as a data DVD?  Is uploading to YouTube an option?

  • Pictures I've taken are visible on my iPhone but not my camera roll. has happened twice.

    Pictures I've taken are visible on my iPhone but not my camera roll. This has happened twice. On a set of pictures taken 11/2/13 and today 11/5/13. Is there a solution for this. This is unacceptable. Now it's not showing any new pictures taken at all.

    I'm with you. It doesn't make any sense to me either. However, when I view my pictures as a collection and select it - nothing is there. It is a clear picture.
    The problem is that what you originally said, "Pictures I've taken are visible on my iPhone but not my camera roll" , has nothing to do with your actual problem. 
    Define "clear picture".  Do you mean blank image?  Are you saying there are no pictures to view, only blank screen where the picture should be?

  • Iphone and photos not on camera roll

    Hello All,
    I hope you can help me ..
    So our EVP of sales has a home IMAC and it was failing so he he synchronized his Iphone to grab all his pictures off of Iphoto to his Iphone.
    Now he has them all on his iphone but now he wants to put them back on his iphoto on his macbook pro or new IMAC.
    any thoughts , i know when i plug his phone into his macbook it only lets me move his pictures form his camera roll and nothing else , if I click the sync feature in itunes it wants to update and hes afraid the iphoto will over write his iphone and he will lose all his pictures.
    Thoughts , suggestions

    The sync/transfer process for photos from a computer to an iPhone is a one way transfer process ONLY - from the computer to the iPhone, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only.
    Photos transferred from a computer are optimized for viewing on the iPhone as the first step during the iTunes sync/transfer process for this data - the original resolution of these photos is reduced.
    Has the home iMac completely failed yet? If no, he needs to use an external drive for transferring these photos - he can copy the iPhoto Library folder and place the folder in the same location on his MBP with iPhoto quit when doing so.
    There are 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
