WHY is it that when I download photos & videos from my iphone to my computer, they are rotated?

Because the picture/video viewer you're using is not clever enough to respect the orientation tag embedded in iPhone video and image files so it 'knows' which way up you were holding the phone when you shot the photo or video.
Try a better image/video viewer or computer OS.

  • I can't download photos and videos from my iphone

    Hi,
    I have iPhone 4 with iOS 5. Can't download photos and videos from my iphone because my PC doesn't see it. Also my camera roll doesn't show right thumbnails and when i open a photo it shows it in low resolution. Only after i start editing it shows the photo itself in original resolution. iTunes recognises my phone but freezes on back up. When i updated my phone to ios 5 everything was wiped clear and i lost all of data that was in it. Please help me, i do not want to lose my data again.
    I plugged it in to another pc (win7) but no files in DCIM.

    appears to be one of the bugs associated with ios 5 that need to be worked out.  (i had a problem where I had music on my phone, the phone didn't recognize the music but the computer could find it)
    While I don't know how to fix the immediate problem, I have a workaround that will get you past this if you are willing...
    My suggestion is to turn on icloud and photostream on your iphone, and download and install the icloud control panel on your pc found here
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html
    take a "picture" (quickly press the home button and lock button at the same time) of each picture on your device so they show up in your camera roll and will sync to your photostream cloud.  This will in turn cause your pc to download the photos from your photostream cloud via the icloud control panel.  Your photos will be on your computer, and you will never have to sync your phone to get photos off your iphone again.

  • HT1766 lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?

    lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?
    thanks

    Where did you put them?
    These are not part of the sync process at all, as the manual tells you.  You should be importing them to your comptuer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • HT4528 how do i upload my photos and video from my iphone to my computer?

    I need help uploading my photos and video to my computer. Can anyone help?

    This article is awesome for importing Pics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    Depends on if you have a Windows computer or a Mac, but this should show you how to import those new pics. Another way to do it on a PC is to open 'My Computer', then right click on your iOS device; Imports all the new pics AND videos you have straight to the "My Pictures" album with today's date.

  • How can I transfer my photos and videos from the iphone to my computer?

    I have had my iphone since fall 2010 and I have transferred photos to my computer from my iphone only once. Now I want to transfer my videos and photos but I can remember how I did the last time and I can remember where the instructions are or how I learned to do it. Any help out there? The iphone manual is useless. The Apple help site is useless.

    Jim VanLeeuwen has already given you the answer, but (for your future reference), when I saw your comment -- on an RSS feed -- that "The Apple help site is useless" I went to the Support pages and in the search box at the top, entered, "transfer photos from iPhone to Mac".  The top result was the one Jim VanLeeuwen offers.

  • How to download photos and video from cloud to computer?

    How do I download my photos and videos from Verizon Cloud to my computer, more specifically, my external hard drive? I'm out of cloud storage.

    I just did this after struggling with it for a while. When you are viewing your pictures on cloud go to all files. I suggest doing one folder at a time because it takes a while. Check the box on the folder then click on download. After that a pop up will appear click open. Highlight your downloads when it's finished and save in a folder on your pc. Hope this helps!

  • How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone 5 or Mac to an inactive iPhone 4S that my granddaughter uses ( it doesn't have Internet connection )

    How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone 5 or Mac to an inactive iPhone 4S that my granddaughter uses ( it doesn't have Internet connection )

    Two steps:
    you can first transfer photos from iPhone to computer and then drag them to the external hard drive. For your iTunes library, you can follow:
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Locate your external drive.
    Mac: On the desktop or Finder sidebar.
    3. Locate your iTunes folder:By default, the iTunes folder is located in:
    Mac: Finder > username > Music
    4. Drag the iTunes folder to your external drive. This can take a while if you have a lot of items.
    6. When the transfer is complete, your iTunes Library will have been successfully copied to your external drive.

    Shot videos ONLY in landscape. For photos choose what's you like. Maybe you have to rotate photos on PC. What's your operating system?

  • How do I transfer photos and videos from my iPhone to my PC using iCloud and Photo Stream?

    I am quite confused with how iCloud and Photo Stream work to transfer photos and videos from my iPhone to my PC. I recently ran out of my space on iPhone so I need to delete all of my pictures and videos but I first want to confirm that they have all been transferred over to my PC. I have iCloud setup but here lately I have been getting the warning message that iCloud could not perform it's backup because I was out of space on iCloud. I had not worried about it since I figured that all of my pictures and videos were on my iPhone anyway and the only reason I would need them on iCloud would be for a backup. Anyway, how can I confirm that everything has been transferred over to my PC? Then, what is the quickest way to delete all of my exisiting photos and videos off of my iPhone? I found the Photo Stream folder on my PC... Is everything automatically added to this when I connect my iPhone to my PC? If I delete something off of my iPhone is it deleted from the Photo Stream folder on my PC? Please help and thank you! I just don't want to lose any of my stuff!

    You don't move them to iTunes or an iTunes account.
    You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • Can I create separate folders to save media on my Airport Time Capsule? Issue is I have a 256GB HDD Mac Pro Retina which is almost full. TC will only take backup of my HDD. So where would I save my photos and videos from my iPhone and iPad?

    It is a hard one.. laptops with small drives are a pain.
    What you need is a home media server.
    Some people use a PC running itunes for cost.. but that is nothing like as good as using a Mac mini.. they make great little HTPC device.. you can plug in large hard disks and store all your files and media. And share it with the network.. Read up apple's instructions on home sharing.
    https://www.apple.com/au/support/homesharing/
    For cost you can buy a mini from 2011 or 2012.. I would not recommend earlier ones.. the advantage of 2012 is they have USB3 ports. But you will pay more for them.. new mini is not as useful.. they have soldered in memory and you cannot upgrade.. the old mini was the most easily modified mac in the whole range. Uses little power and can be bought for a $300US for a good one second hand.. maybe less.

  • HT1688 How to transfer photos and videos from my iphone to my pc laptop?

    Hi,
    I have a pc laptop and a iphone 3GS. How do I transfer the photos and videos from my iphone to my pc?
    Please help.
    Thank you!

    I've seen posts before from users that report their computer suddenly stopped seeing new photos on their device.  I'm not sure what the solution would be though.  At least we know it's not a connectivity or usb device driver issue.
    You could try transferring your photos (and videos) to your computer wirelessly using an app like PhotoSync.  Once transferred, delete them from your phone to eliminate a possible data corruption issue that may be causing this problem.  Then, if you still want the photos on your phone, you could then transfer them back using PhotoSync.

  • I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.

    I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.  There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.

    Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
         File > New > Smart Album:
    Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
    and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
    Set the scope of the search to "Library"
    If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them.  Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
    Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
    You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active.
