We can't get to the camera roll right now

I have a dell Latitude 10 table with Windows 8.1 RT. Last week I decided to unload all the pictures from the camera roll to my PC and I did it without a problem, but in the process I removed the camera roll folder under the public pictures library. Since
then, the camera app is not working and it gives me the following message: "We can't get to the camera roll right now". I've re-created the folder, set the default save location and public save locations to the Public Pictures folder but the error
keeps popping up every time I open the camera application. If I try to shoot a photo or a video it tells me that it couldn't be saved. How do I set the camera app to use the new folder?

I had the same Problem, and all experts could not help. I even dowloaded tools that say thy would fix the problem. Anyway as a matter of fact it still is a computer, no magic.
I found a way: Open regedit, search for "User Shell Folders".
Then check all the directories.
In my case one of the directories refered to the one I deleted. I just changed it and restarted my computer.
On my iconia it saves into this key:
I changed it | Keep the Name of the folder "Camera Roll" depending on your language it will rename the folder in the Explorer library automaticly. (in Germany to Eigene Aufnahmen)

  • How can I manually set the Camera Roll to start at an arbitrary image number, i.e., IMG_0553.JPG?

    I have an iPhone 4s, currently with iOS 5.1. I use it with my desktop computer which runs Windows Vista (and has the latest iTunes installed 10.6), and my laptop, which has Windows 7 and the latest iTunes. I use iCloud and Photo Stream primarily with the desktop computer.
    Since receiving the iPhone on launch day, (Nov...14?, 2011), I've had to "Set [it] up as new" twice, most recently this morning.
    After setting it up as new, the Camera Roll starts over with pictures at IMG_0001.JPG. That means, that, after my first picture after this latest reset, I'll have three pictures all initially named IMG_0001.JPG, and instead, I'll have IMG_0001.JPG, IMG_0001 (1).JPG, and IMG_0001 (3).JPG in my photo library. This robs me of the ability view my photos sorted by name, which is often the default sort order in my photo folders, and still see them chronologically. I can, of course, sort them by Date Created, but it would be more flexible if I could do either one.
    Therefore, I'd like to set Camera Roll to start numbering its photos starting with whatever the next number higher than all the rest in my library would be, in this case, IMG_0553.JPG.
    I can't just use Windows to go into the iPhone's Camera Roll and rename the first photo I take to be IMG_0533.JPG. The iPhone just doesn't allow tampering with the filename that way. Can I even count on Camera Roll to note the presence of the highest numbered file in its folder and then just name the next picture taken the next higher number?
    Since I have no reason to believe that I won't have to reset the phone again, I'd like for whatever method I find to be one that I can use to set the Camera Roll to start at whatever other number I need when the time comes.
    Suggestions welcome...
    I have an idea that I'm about to try...I'll report back if it succeeds...
    UPDATE: So what I tried to do was, with an empty Camera Roll, I uploaded a picture with the filename and number that I wanted (IMG_0533.JPG) into my Photo Stream, then saved that picture to my Camera Roll, hoping it would retain the file name, and then Camera Roll would just use the next number. That didn't work. It saved into Camera Roll as a brand spanking new IMG_0001.JPG.

    To bring the solution into this thread, here are the consolidated solution bits from the other thread:
    I installed i-Funbox and found the file referenced in that other thread ( iPHone / Raw File System / PhotoData / MISC / DCIM_APPLE.plist ).
    That file has a section that I'm replicating below that is the part that that original poster edited, and is the part that needs to be edited for my problem also:
              <key>DCIMLastFileNumber</key>
              <integer>5</integer>
    That other thread's original poster wanted his photos to start with 0001, so he set his "DCIMLastFileNumber" to 0.
    I wanted my next picture to be IMG_0553.JPG, so I edited my file's 5 to 552.
    I did that editing by first copying the file to my laptop (using the Copy To PC command), then opening it up in a text editor. I did the edit, then saved it.
    After that, I used i-Funbox' "Copy From PC" command to copy the edited file back to the same location, hoping that the program would take care of any permissions, etc.
    I had to do the Copy From PC twice.
    On the first try, it seemed to copy just fine, but, for whatever reason, the copied file was empty when I opened it for verification. But I tried again, and that seemed to work (opened for verification, and it was as expected).
    I then unplugged it, copied a picture from the Photo Stream to the Camera Roll, then plugged it into my laptop to verify the filename. It was exactly as I wanted: IMG_0533.JPG. Then, for fuller verification, I unplugged it, took a new picture, then replugged it in, and confirmed that the next pictures (I had HDR on) were IMG_0534.JPG and IMG_0535.JPG.
    ...and that's where I am. Nothing has crashed yet, too, which is all to the good ('course, I haven't done anything else with the phone yet).
    Fingers crossed!

  • When I open photo icon on iphone 4, I cannot get to the camera roll icon. It is hidden behind albums menu, how can I open camera roll?

       I open the photo icon from the scrren application and it open to albums.  The camera roll icon is behind this wording, when I try and scroll to get to it, it only goes straight behind and i am unable to open photos from here.  I can get to the photo the long way but do not want to continue to do this. It has only just started happening. 

    It helps people like me if you say how!
    double tap the menu key
    press and hold the photos icon until you get the minus sign
    tap minus sign to remove it from task bar
    problem solved ... for a while!

  • I changed jobs and had to change emails/Apple ID.  Before doing so, I did not save my photos from the photo stream to the camera roll.  Now, all the old pictures that are still on my iPhone are not streaming to the iPad, only new ones.  Please help.

    I changed jobs and had to change email/AppleID.  Before doing so, I did not copy the pics on the photo stream of my iPad to the album and now the only pics being synce with my iPad are new pics either saved or taken on phone.  Old pics are still on phone.  There has to be a way to get these pics to be able to stream them on to iPad, right?

    You have a couple of options to get them in your photo stream:
    Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot.  This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
    Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll.  This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once.  Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll.  These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream.  (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)
    Or, you can add them to a shared stream and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  The shared stream will appear on your iPad and you can either leave things this way, or save them to the camera roll on your iPad and delete the shared stream.  They won't be in your photo stream but they will at least be on your iPad.

  • Can not get images from camera roll in Iphone into Itunes

    When I sync my iPhone with iTunes then sync it as normal, but it is not just the pictures located on Kamara roll in over the iPhone with iTunes. It tends to make it otherwise, what can I do?

    Camera roll photos are not synced at all.
    You need to import them as you would import pics from any digital camera:

  • How can I get into the camera app when it's full of pictures

    I want to delete some pictures from my daughter's ipad mini, but when I open the app, it says that the app can't take any more pictures because it's full.  I just want to be able to access her photos so I can delete some.  Help!  I need to be able to take her picture and put the tooth fairy on the picture- tonight!!!

    I'm trying to open the camera app that comes on the ipad mini.  This is the only camera app used on this device.  My 7 year old has taken a million pictures of herself and Barbie and now when I try to open the camera app, I get a message saying that there isn't enough storage to take pictures and that I should go to settings to manage my storage.  it won't let me access any of the one million saved pictures.  If I could access them, I would just delete all of them but I don't even have access to them anymore.  Can you suggest something?

  • HT1296 upon syncing my ipad with my mac, the process reversed and sent pictures back to the ipad on the camera roll.  Now none can be deleted.  There is no trash showing up, only edit. Instead of the 900 pics in the photo stream, and the same in photos

    I canot delete pics from my photos on ipad.  During synching process to my mac the pictures started to suddenly be downloaded back to the ipad.  I now have 900 pics in photos and the same in photo stream on the ipad.  There is no trash can, only an "edit" choice.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System.

    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?

  • TS3989 Cannot get pictures from camera roll to photo stream on my iPhone

    I have tried everything.  I have picture taken about 2 weeks ago on my iPhone that I can't get from the camera roll to the photo stream  I want them on my iPad  through the upload to iCloud. I have tried closing the camera, am on wifi and have settings set correctly and have my iPhone charging.  And then I just added a picture took all the steps and this picture DID get to photo stream.  Hoe do I get the other groupmof photos there?

    Only pix taken after photo stream is turned on are added to photo stream (as well as camera roll). Older pix are not.
    To get the older ones to a computer, sync using USB. You can also take a screen shot in the device when viewing an older picture (press home and power buttons together, quickly).  This will add the photo to the stream, but the disadvantage is that the resolution will be that of the screen, which is much less than the original picture.

  • How do I get iPhoto to import & store from the camera roll?

    Under iOS 6, it was possible to import photos from camera roll to iPhoto, where they were stored, even if they were deleted from the camera roll.
    Now, iPhoto has access to the entire camera roll, and I don't see a way to import into iPhoto.
    My goal is to have a copy of the photo in iPhoto, but at the same time, delete it from camera roll.
    Is this possible under iOS 7?

    My iPhoto is v. 4.0.3.
    Is your QuickTime up to date?
    Video importing requires QuickTime 7.6.2 or later.

    Hello
    I've been using IFTTT to save my instagram pictures in an album but the thing is those pics get in the camera roll too, how can I separate them and keep each in its place.
    I've been using iPhone 6 plus and the latest IOS 8.1.1.

  • How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

    How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

    When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
    For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

    Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll. One is called Photo Library, and the other is called iphone. It's using alot of space and I don't know how to delete them. Please HELP!!

    those are photos that have been synced to your phone from your computer. plug in your phone to your computer, open itunes, select 'photos' tab from the top, and uncheck 'sync photos'
    this will erase the photos from your phone that are not in the camera roll
