Why do iPhone 4S camera roll pictures sometimes not go to my photo stream?
Is this an issue with just the 4s? I am waiting to upgrade, but missing photos is frustrating. Sometimes pictures taken at same location minutes apart do not appear in photo stream. I have tried resetting the phone, turning camera off, etc. but problem persists. It did not do this initially, but started several months ago, probably after an update. I cannot find a solution that works in the support communities. Any suggestions or do I just need to live with this until getting a new phone?
Not sure if you are referring to photos in the Camera Roll from before you turned Photo Stream on, but just in case you aren't aware, only new photos will go. Following quote is from: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
When you turn on My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will automatically push to your photo stream.
iOS devices: New photos that you take automatically upload to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and connect to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream doesn't push photos over cellular connections.

I have restored my new replacement iPhone from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying I don't have any pictures in my camera roll, it has all the spaces for them, but it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!
It's difficult to say whether it's stuck or not as the time to restore a backup can depend on many factors. You'll have to decide when you think it's just not continuing. You could try turning the phone off (hold the power button until you see the red off slider, then slide to turn off), then back on to see if that would get it going again.
When you're convinced it's just hung, you can go back to settings and tap Stop Restoring iPhone to stop the restore. You'll then have to try restoring it again (Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup). Be sure it's connected to your charger and wifi while it's restoring the backup.
You might also try the approach posted here by ezjules: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This seems to have worked for some people who had trouble restoring their photos from an iCloud backup. -
I was organizing my photos into albums. then deleting them from my Camera roll. Then I went into MY Photo Stream and started deleting the pics I had moved to albums;Come to find out I deleted all pic from everywhere!! Would the iCloud still have them saved
First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.

If I reset photo stream will the photos in my camera roll be deleted as well or will they stay in the camera roll and just be removed from the photo stream?
Welcome to the Apple community.
When you reset photo stream from the iCloud.com website, the photos will remain on your various devices, unless you also disable photo stream synchronisation and then turn it back on again. -
I just now turned on my photo stream so my pictures from my iphone 4S can go to my desk top. Not sure why I didn't do this sooner, and a bunch of pictures from my photo stream didn't make it to my computer. Also, a bunch of pictures that are on my camera roll are not appearing on my photo stream. Not sure how to solve this problem.
PhotoStream holds a maximum of 1000 pictures, and they must be 30 days old, or less.

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. -
I am getting messages about being out of space on my phone for taking any more photos. I am scared to delete anything with all the photo stream and syncing that happens cause I don't want the photo to delete in many places at the same time.
So, 1) when is it safe to delete from the iPhone? 2) I feel like I have multiple copies of photos stored between the phone, Photos Library in iPhoto and all my albums in iPhoto. Is there a best practice document on how to manage your photos for space savings?
I've looked, but can't find my answer clearly in the forums.IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 -

IPhone 4S Camera Roll picture naming – reset after firmware update
Since I updated my iPhone 4S with iOS 7.0.3, it reset the counter on my picture names, starting again on IMG_0001.JPG, so not only I lost the sequence on my pictures but am also having a really hard time importing pictures to the same folder on my computer, since I have a lot of pictures with the same names...is anyone else having this problem? Also, could this be happening because my last picture before it reset was IMG_9999.JPG?

Anyone able to help?
Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Why is my iPhone Camera Roll using 10.0 GB but my Photo Library only using 6.3 GB?
When I look at usage in my iPhone, Camera Roll is using 10.0 GB, but Photo Library is only using 6.3 GB. I do not have Photo Stream enabled. Why the difference?
In my case, Camera Roll is just the pictures taken on my phone and the remainder of the photos on my phone were synced from my computer via iTunes and are under "Photo Library". If you go to Photos and then tap Albums at the bottom right, it will show which pictures are in the Camera Roll. My Camera Roll usage is much smaller than Photo Library as I only have 2 pictures there since I regularly import them to my computer where I have more control and extra backup capability. I then sync back some that I want to also have on the phone.

How to transfer a few selected pictures from iPhone 4 Camera Roll with four hundred pictures to my PC Vista. Just selected pictures not all folder. Thanks
You do understand though, that if something happened to your phone - if you lost it, if it were stolen, if you dropped it and were unable to access it, if it got wet - all those pictures that you had not transferred to your computer would no longer be so "handy." Just saying, I have not only read that horror story from many users on this forum, but have seen it live from many users in my own life. Do yourself a favor and back them up sooner rather than later by transferring them all now. Trust me on this, you won't regret it.
