When I edit a photo on an app then save it to the camera roll it doesn't appear ???

It's there but you can't see it

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

How do I put photos in an album and remove them from the camera roll?

I would like to be able to move photos into an album and remove them from the camera roll. Is this possible?
I take many photos of mundane things that I simply want to remember, such as serial number of products. I would like to save these photos for viewing, but I don't want them to appear in my camera roll, where I have to continuously scroll through many such photos to get to the ones that I want to view there.
I know that Apple has a "hide" feature, but it doesn't actually do anything. When I press-and-hold on individual photos, the photos stay in the camera roll: they aren't hidden at all. It's not clear what the purpose of this function is at all.

You don't do this, as the photos are in the camera roll. That is where they live. When you make an album you are simply making a list of pointer to your photos in camera roll.
If you remove them from the camera roll, then they are gone.
Photos in albums are not in two places. They are in only one place, the camera roll. The album merely contains pointers to those pics, so that you can categorize them however you like.
You should be importing these pics to your computer. I find it far easier to organize my photos on my computer, then sync them to the iPhone.

Even in some apps i have data which i want to remove,but cant find a way to remove them and they are in my cache eating up my memory.

Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

How can i delete photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s. when it was synced, the photos went to two folders and not to the camera roll

How can I delter photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s? When I synced the new phone from the Itunes, the photos went to two folders and not the camera roll.

thanks, should I delete all the phones on Itunes and re sync the old phone, then resync the new phone to get the pictures? Will they go to camera roll instead of a folder?

When you use icloud to back up your iPhone does it delete the camera roll after 30 days or just the photo stream?

I have my phone backed up to icloud but for unnamed reasons I cannot restore from icloud back up at the moment. I'm worried about my pictures. Will the back up of the camera roll delete after 30 days or is that just the photo stream?

The statement is directly from Apple and can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
Keep in mind, pictures showing in PhotoStream does not mean they will be there when a new device is added, only that they have been downloaded by the device they are displaying on.
In other words, if a new iDevice is added to the account, it will only download the last 1,000 pictures taken in the last 30 days, not every picture showing on other iDevices in PhotoStream.

How to select which folder my photo's sync to on my PC from the camera roll

When I sync my Iphone the pictures on my CAMERA ROLL sync to a folder in MY PICTURES on my PC. How do I change which folder on my PC that the pictures save to.

This would be done from your computer, as it would with any digital camera.

How can I import photos from photo stream to windows photo gallery? These photos are not on the camera roll on my iPad but are from another iPad on the same iCloud account.

I work at a Learning Center that has 12 iPads on the same iTunes and iCloud account. Each classroom uses an iPad assigned to their room to take photos. Each of these photos then shows up in the Photo Stream in all 11 of the other iPads. I have no trouble importing photos that are in the Camera Roll of any individual iPad, but I have not been able to import photos from the Photo Stream if the picture was not taken on the specific iPad I am using. It is not feasible for me to collect all 12 iPads everyday to import everyones photos, so how can I use one "master" iPad that will let me import photos from the Photo Stream since it has all the photos that everyone has taken?

You downloaded an iCloud backup to your PC? I assume you mean you downloaded your photo stream to your PC. What you may not know is that photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days. After that, they are deleted from photo stream but not from any device that already has them (such as your phone). When you enabled photo stream on your PC you only had access to photos from the last 30 days since the others are no longer there, even though they remain on your phone.
To transfer these to your computer at this point you have two options:
Save them to the camera roll on your phone (by opening the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. (You can only import photos to your computer from the Camera Roll album.) Then import them to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or
Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices/computers, including the my photo stream album.
In the future, always import your photos from your camera roll to your computer via USB before deleting them. Don't rely on photo stream or your iCloud backup to save your photos.

After iOS 5.1 update on iPhone 4, some of my pictures in the camera roll become pixelated after a crop edit?

I will elaborate. Lets say I save an image from a website. Then I go to the camera roll and edit crop it to make the image a tad bit smaller. Suddenly the images becomes pixelated and blocky. When I return to the image and tap the edit button, it becomes clear again and I can see the original picture. When I tap cancel, it goes back to beign pixelated/blocky. I tired restoring my phone to factory setting and losing all my data. That didn't work. As soon as I tested it, the same thing happened. I tried some weird method from www.iphoneincanada.ca an that didn't work either.
This is very annoying!

I have more info. I am using a program to look at the files on my iPhone. I did some testing and I came up with this. When a photo is edited ( in my case cropping) an image is created in the Metadata folder. The metadata folder is contained in a folder called PhotoData. For some reason, the cropped JPG is put within this metadata folder. The DCIM folder contains the "actual image" you saved from the internet or wherever. When a photo is edited in camer roll, a .XMP file is created for that image (Sometimes) and it's about 1kb. Coincidentally, the image that is pixelated DOES NOT have an .XMP file associated with it in the DCIM folder.
To conclude, it seems that the pictures that have a .XMP file associated with it in the DCIM folder does not come out as pixelated.
If there is a .XMP file then the photo in the Metadata folder become pixelated.

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.

ICloud not restoring my photos in the camera roll. HELP ! :(

Apparently I had to reset my iphone but before doing this I checked if my back up was updated with icloud and IT WAS!
After sucessfully completing the reset process I found out that all my stuff is back (contacts, notes, reminders etc.) EXCEPT the photos in my camera roll.
The pictures and videos were important, their backup was only on icloud :/
Then I reset my phone a few times again, choosing different backups each time but nothing helped!
I also checked my storage and backup options in settings to make sure there was a backup of my photos and it said "178 MB" next to the camera roll which means I should be able to get my photos back but instead the camera roll is empty :(
Now, I've tried everything and have failed.
Please Help ! It would be really appreciated.

Not sure if you still haven't fixed the problem by now. But the way I got round it was:
Going to the page where you can 'Erase all data and settings' etc (Settings>General>Reset)
And instead of pressing the button to erase literally everything, instead i pressed 'Reset AllSettings' instead, which takes you to the exact same Welcome setup thing (but the process is quicker coz it doesnt delete everything).
Then go through the steps as normal and try again, this time with a different restore point if you can.
Hopefully should do the trick.
I'm not sure if it worked becuase I used a different restore point, or becuase I Reset the settings and not everything. But it did the trick, and there all downloading now.
Good luck

Before 8.3 update when I saved photos they were added to my camera roll. Then I could access the photo I wanted from any app. Now when I SAVE a photo it is not added to the camera roll at all. iCloud photo is on. AND my Photo Stream is GONE entirely.

Hi all. Since updating my iphone 6 a couple days ago, I have discovered awful glitches in photos. When I save photos they do not get added to my camera roll. My Camera Roll and Photo Stream used to match. I would take a photo on the camera and I would see it on my photo stream. Yesterday, I added an edited photo to my camera roll by saving it (I thought). But it was not there. In the past, if I wanted a photo to post in any app, from Twitter to Facebook to Yelp, in order to retrieve it easily (if I had a lot of photos on my phone) I would sometimes text it to myself and then save it. It would be added to my camera roll. Then, when any app asked me to upload a photo, I could find it right at the beginning of my camera roll photos. Now, when I save a photo it does not appear on my camera roll. I discovered this yesterday when posting a Yelp review. I found the photo I wanted to use on my camera roll and it was way back at the beginning of the camera roll. I edited the photo. I saved it. It did not get added to my camera roll. So then I looked for the photo on the camera roll where I had originally found it way back at the beginning. The edited version of the photo was gone. Could not find my photo to upload to Yelp. Then I discovered it was the same with every other app on the phone.
PHOTO STREAM DISAPPEARED! This was my main problem and primary question until I tried to resolve the issue. I saw a message on my phone that said (I thought) that I needed to connect my phone to my laptop to restore icloud backups. So I manually connected my phone to my Mac Pro Laptop (2011) and backed up my photos. I made sure iCloud was turned on for photos. I have it set to Download and Keep Originals. It is also set to Upload to My Photo Stream. And iCloud sharing is turned on.
WHEN I connected my phone to my computer I got a message on my phone about setting it up for personal hotspot and it would not complete the update unless I replied. At first i did set it up, but it seemed to be an issue, so I simply let my phone and computer use my home wifi network. I don't need the personal hotspot, but it seemed to affect the photo issue further.
Now where I used to see Photo Stream and Camera Roll, it simply says All Photos. I am extremely confused. This is a mess. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

I restored it twice, once from icloud backup and then from my computer back up. I just restored again and set it up as a new iphone and now my photos are saving again. I was then able to sync apps and music from my itunes to my phone... So happy you wouldn't believe!!

I am not able to access my photos through the photo application... when I click on the photo app, I can see the camera roll but a transparent album screen is over it and I cannot click on the photos to see it... can any one please help ???

Known bug. Quit the Camera App, double-tap the home key and delete Camera from the recent apps bar. Fire it up again, should be good.

When I edit a photo on an app then save it to the camera roll it doesn't appear ???
