I have a video that i originally took using my iphone but then transfered to my PC. I want to put it back onto my iPhone in the photo app (NOT video app) so i can share it straight from my phone.
Since one of the iphone updates enabled the volume button as a camera shutter button and i was shooting the video one handed, i held the camera with the volume buttons on top. Unfortunatly, the phone still saves it in such a way that only the iphone and itunes recognize the proper orientation intended and when it's opened with any other device or program, it automatically makes the part of the video that's against the smooth side of the phone always the top side (regardless of if that makes the video sideways or upside down). I was able to get the video back onto my phone as a "video" where it shows up in the video app as a "movie" and there are no options to share via text, email, youtube (which were options when the video was still in the photo app). I need to be able to share the video with familyHave you transferred photos from your computer to your iPhone which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
If so, you can place this video in the folder of photos on your computer that is selected to be transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process. Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Include Videos. -
Is there a way to transfer a video from my computer to the photo app? iOS 7
I want to transfer a video to my iPod, but to the Photo app. Is there a way to do this? If there is, how?
Yes if you email it and save the video attachment in the Camera Roll album.
You can also use a third-party program like iFunBox to copy it to the Camera Roll album.
If you sync the video it will go to the Video app.
I tried using DropBox but there is not option to to save in Camera Roll album. -
Photos app uploading more items than in library
I have been having a lot of trouble trying to upload my library to iCloud, I saw one solution that said to repair the Photos library by holding Command and Option at the same time then launching Photos, once the repair was done it seems like the upload has started again but this time its saying it is uploading 19,500+ photos when I only have 17,100 in my library. How could this be?
Thank you for all your responses. It's good to know that I am not alone in this.
Something far worse happened to me recently with the Photos app. I noticed in System Preferences > iCloud > Photos, there was an option to "Delete and Disable" iCloud Photo Library (hereinafter "IPL") completely. It sounded to me like this would delete all of my photos from IPL so that I could get a clean start and retry the upload from my pristine Photos app library.
Lo and behold, when I did that, IPL somehow sent a signal to Photos that all of my photos needed to be downloaded, so it duplicated literally thousands of photos in a library that I had carefully pruned in Aperture throughout the years. Not only that, but it deleted half of my library! It went from 130 GB to 62 GB in a matter of minutes with no warning, confirmation, or even an informational dialog box. What a disaster this iCloud Photo Library has proven to be.
Thank God, I have a good backup plan and everything can be restored, but I've learned my lesson and have come to the following conclusions:
1. iCloud Photo Library is a disaster in its current state. This beta is not ready for public testing.
2. The best way (at least for me) to use Photos app now, is to turn off iCloud Photo Library, but keep the option for the Photo Stream on. That option automatically feeds all new photos from my iOS devices into Photos, which is almost perfect. Unfortunately, Photo Stream does not support videos, however. So, for videos, I simply connect my iPhone and Photos app does a good job of recognizing all of the new videos that need to be imported. With this setup, I can benefit from the Photos app, get all of my new photos and videos imported, and avoid the hassle that is known as the iCloud Photo Library.
I hope this experience helps someone in the future. -
Empty Photos app, but 3.8GB in Photo Library
All photos and videos that used to be in the Photos app on my iPad mini (iOS 8.1.2, 16 GB) have been deleted; both the "Camera Roll" and "Recently Deleted" albums are empty. This was confirmed by a separate Photo Transfer App. However, in the settings under General>Usage>Manage Storage it shows that "Photos & Camera" is using 3.8GB in the Photo Library. Under General>About it shows there are 4 videos and 32 photos on the iPad mini somewhere. In iTunes, it shows there are 36 "photos" that take up 3.77GB. The videos were created with the iPad mini camera and deleted more than a month ago by direct deletion from the Photos app followed by direct deletion from the "Recently Deleted" album. Does anyone know where those 4 videos and 32 photos are located and how they can be deleted? In case it helps to know, I do not use iCloud, or the Messages and FaceTime apps. Thanks in advance.
I found the answer by trying different suggestions in other posts. The suggestion that worked in this case was to download iExplorer (available at http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) onto my laptop and follow the instructions at http://iexplorer-support.macroplant.com/customer/portal/articles/1325738-how-to- delete-all-photos-from-an-iphone-or-ipad. It worked by just using the demo version of iExplorer. Another possible solution suggested in other posts that did not work in this case was to use iTunes to sync "photos" from an empty folder on the laptop with the iPad mini.

How can I print a full frame photo from iPhoto 11? Even though I click on scale to fit paper size, it crops both ends of the photo in landscape set up. I have an Epson R1800 with the latest drivers. (I'm also 3 days new to iMac and iPhoto 11 from an eMac and iPhoto 6.)
" Hello Jeff. Here at Oki Data, we do not support programming. I would recommend contacting Adobe for further assistance. You can also browse their website at http://www.adobe.com/products/postscript/.

My iphone 3g is getting really slow. I done full restore ,deleted most apps . Not many photos in my album. i have no videos on my iphone. When taking photo with my iphone it takes ages for camera to open up. Very slow to take photo. Any suggestions? Please help !!!!
Thank you very much for your reply gdgmacguy :) I did all you suggested apart from restore as new device . Didn't know I could do that . After restore I did restore from back up only, as I didn't want to end up without contacts details on my phone. If I restore as new device how do I get my all contacts? Still will have to use back up? Sorry if it sounds like I don't know what i am doing, i just have no one to ask who would know. Thank you

I am trying to clear space on our iPad. If I delete photos and videos on the iPad, will they remain saved on our iCloud account? Need the space, don't want to lose the photos!
They will be backed up only until you backup again. iCloud is not a storage drive in the sky, it is a backup service only. If you delete the photos and videos from the camera roll, and then you backup the iPad with iCloud, you will overwrite that backup and the photos will be gone.
Import the photos to your computer if they are that important to you. iCloud is for backup only, not a storage place that you can download your photos from again once you overwrite that backup.

I deleted all my photos and videos and then delete the deleted files but the photo app is still taking up 12 GB of space and I have no room for new stuff. How can I clear the memory space used by my deleted videos and photos? I don't know why the photos are still taking up space and if I will have to reset my phone to get rid of the problem.
Hey there TowneJ,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article linked below provides troubleshooting tips that’ll likely resolve the issue that you’ve described, where deleted files appear to be taking up space on your iPhone 5.

Are Adobe EVER going to make Edge Animate scale-to-fit (like Flash)?
I've been following the progress of Edge Animate (formerly Edge) ever since Steve Jobs decided he wasn't having Flash on the iPad.
With each new version I've been desperately looking for the feature that I consider the most important of all: Scale-to-fit
There are a couple of discussions already on this forum where people have requested this feature - but both have been sidetracked by replies from people who haven't understood what 'scale-to-fit' is. So let me explain Scale-to-fit:
I'm talking about the feature in Flash - where if the HTML dimensions are set to 'Percent' - then the resultant movie will scale-to-fit any browser window. Here is an example of what I mean:
http://www.skippingschool.co.uk
- try changing the browser size and you'll see the whole frame (graphics and images) scales without changing its proportions.
When the latest version of Edge Animate came out with its built-in easy-to-follow 'Resize' Lesson, I thought Adobe had finally found an answer. But good though this feature is, it doesn't solve the problem. It's only possible to properly scale-to-fit images - not graphics.
It's now more important than ever that Adobe finds a solution to this problem. The world is going 'Responsive' - its not just a fad. And 'Responsive' is not just about three columns being squeezed into one. All Responsive sites require images, graphics AND animations to scale-to-fit. So Adobe's tutorial showing how Edge Animate can be added to WordPress sites is of limited use because it won't work for Responsive web sites.
So please Adobe, will someone tell me if scale-to-fit is EVER going to happen? I don't mind if it's 3 months, 6 months, 9 months down the line - but I need to know if it's worth me sticking with Edge Animate - or whether I should be looking toward HTML5 Canvas or something else for a solution?
Alternatively, is there some fundamental reason why it can NEVER happen?
Please tell me? Just put me out of my misery!Hi Sarah,
I hope you don't mind but I played around with your code a bit and managed to get the kind of scale-to-fit behavior that I believe the OP was asking about. I think the trick is to make sure that you also check whether the scaled height of the stage exceeds the height of the browser window and change the scaling so that it is responsive to changes in both the width and height of the window, whichever is the limiting factor. The code I changed in CompositionReady appears in bold below. I hope this helps.
sym.$("#Stage").css({ // Set the transform origin so we always scale to the top left corner of the stage
"transform-origin":"0 0",
"-ms-transform-origin":"0 0",
"-webkit-transform-origin":"0 0",
"-moz-transform-origin":"0 0",
"-o-transform-origin":"0 0"
function scaleStage() {
var stage = sym.$('Stage'); // Set a reusable variable to reference the stage
var parent = sym.$('Stage').parent(); // Set a reusable variable to reference the parent container of the stage
var parentWidth = stage.parent().width(); // Get the parent of the stage width
var parentHeight = $(window).height(); // Get the browser window height
var stageWidth = stage.width(); // Get the stage width
var stageHeight = stage.height(); // Get the stage height
var desiredWidth = Math.round(parentWidth * 1); // Set the new width of the stage as it scales
var desiredHeight = Math.round(parentHeight * 1); // Set the new height of the stage as it scales
var rescaleWidth = (desiredWidth / stageWidth); // Set a variable to calculate the new width of the stage as it scales
var rescaleHeight = (desiredHeight / stageHeight); // Set a variable to calculate the new height of the stage as it scales
var rescale = rescaleWidth;
if (stageHeight * rescale > desiredHeight) // Do not scale larger than the height of the browser window
rescale = rescaleHeight;
// Rescale the stage!
stage.css('transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
stage.css( '-o-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
stage.css('-ms-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
stage.css('-webkit-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
stage.css('-moz-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
stage.css('-o-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
parent.height(stageHeight * rescale); // Reset the height of the parent container so the objects below it will reflow as the height adjusts
// Make it happen when the browser resizes
$(window).on('resize', function(){
scaleStage();
// Make it happen when the page first loads
$(document).ready(function(){
scaleStage(); -
Videos Imported from iPhoto Cannot Play in Photos
Hello,
I just upgraded to Photos and accepted the default setting to convert my iPhoto library to Photos/iCloud format. All went fine without errors and I see that Photos created an entire duplicate on the iPhoto library.
The problem is I cannot play any videos in Photos that came from iPhoto. I get a dialog message indicating "Cannot Play File, Photos cannot play this video. Do you want to try opening it in QuickTime Player?" Similarly, Quicktime Player reports it cannot play the file and prompts "To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More."
The videos where imported to iPhoto from my iPhone 6. There does not seem to be a difference between standard video or slow motion video files.
My software versions are;
Mac OS X: 10.10.3 (14D136)
iPhotos: 9.6.1 (910.42)
Photos: 1.0 (209.52.0)
iPhone 6 IOS: 8.3 (12F70)
According to the App Store, my system is fully up dated. How can I restore the videos to work in Photos? Is there another method for importing the iPhoto library into Photos?
Thank you,
JeffThanks for that. Good to know.
Just to add my own two cents to this thread—I have also experienced problems with video files. These fall into two categories:
Videos that were imported as thumbnails only ("Photos cannot play this video because it cannot find the file"). These all seem to be AVI files. I can locate these files in my old iPhoto library, but when I try to import them into Photos, it tells me that this type of file cannot be imported. No error message of any kind was shown during the migration. (This is not at all helpful.)
Videos that were imported, but that won't play in Photos. Photos gives me the option to open them in QuickTime. Depending on the file type, QuickTime does one of two things: (1) Converts it to a format that it can play (which takes ages, and if I save the file, I lose the metadata) Or (2) tells me it can't play it.
There also seem to be files that were converted during the migration. The originals in the iPhoto library are MPG files, while the ones in Photos are MOV files. But they won't play in Photos, and they can only be opened in QuickTime after conversion (within QuickTime).
I've also encountered videos that were shot on an iPhone 4S that won't play in Photos. Not sure what's up with that.
It's important to note that THESE WERE ALL VIDEOS THAT PLAYED JUST FINE IN IPHOTO.
So now I have to go over all my video files (4600 of them) and figure out which ones are problematic (600 AVIs for sure, unknown number of MPGs and MOVs), convert them with Handbrake, import the converted files into Photos, and then manually fix the metadata (date and time, location doesn't bother me so much).
If anyone has any tips that will either spare me this long and tedious process or speed it up somehow, I'm all ears.
Don't get me wrong—I think that Photos is overall waaaaaay better than iPhoto (it's actually usable—I don't have to suffer the spinning beachball for 3/4 of the time it is open). But the migration process is really sub-par. If you're going to just not import a whole bunch of files, at least tell me so I can do something about it. -
I will be migrating my whole 200gb iPhoto library 9.5.1 mavericks over to Yosemite iPhoto 9.6.1 and then migrate to the new photos app and hopefully to the icloud.photos online. Does this all support all of my formats such as AVI videos in my iPhoto library. I don't want to lose those through migration.
I have this 31% issue too - when I attempt to update my iPhoto library to the new Photo app.
I have a few libraries - one on my mac, and two on a NAS. I access the NAS via wifi.
The mac based library did update, but the two network albums have yet to be successfully migrated over to Photo.
It's driving me insane!!! -
New Photos App - Can't Import Video from Digital Camera
Hi, everyone. I just "upgraded" to the new Photos app, but I'm finding that I can no longer import video from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5. With iPhoto, this was never a problem. All of the old videos I imported from this camera are there after migration, and are playable within the program. Photos import just fine. However, I get an error message for the videos (below). I don't understand why I'm not able to import anything new from that device.
I opened iPhoto to attempt an import and it worked just fine. Any help is appreciated. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.3 on an iMac 2010. Thanks.Hi there Jermaster
iMovie 3 does not support the camera you have. iM is a Digital Video (DV) editor. Cameras that record to mini DV tape is what is required. IM 3 does not support USB either. You need Firewire. The camera you have is a flash based Hard Drive camera. To get the video off this camera you'll need iM08 or 09.
But it doesn't appear that the computer you have will support either of these versions.
