You can only edit pictures in camera roll???? What?!

So I finally figured out how to organize my pictures on my iphone, using my windows pc. But now, any app that edits/crops/etc pictures, will ONLY work if a picture is in the camera roll .... Is there a way to move pictures to the camera roll, or some sort of workaround/tip? Thanks!

It's bizarre - not a SINGLE app will load pictures from other albums (but will from camera roll), photoshop mobile included.
Here's what I did:
I connected my iphone to computer
clicked on the iphone in my computer (it shows up as a camera/scanner)
moved pictures from that folder to the synced folder on my computer
synced iphone.

  • Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files?

    Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files? I just want to view / delete files without importing them.
    For instance I have 1200 photos on my iPhone Camera Roll. Some of these are shots, that I've taken multiple times, some good, some bad. I just want to clean up my Camera Roll, but going through the pictures on the iPhone's small screen is tedious. I'd much rather look at the camera roll's photo's on my Mac, and then decide which files I'd like to keep, and which to delete.
    I don't want to import the files, as when I import the files, and delete them from Camera Roll, now the Photo's are not on my phone, and the only way to get them back on my Phone is to Import them back in using iTunes, and then they go into the Picture Library and not the Camera Roll.
    In the same way as I can view Pics from my digital camera's SD card on a Mac without having to actually copy them to my computer, is there any app out there that will let me view my iPhone pics without importing them.

    The short answer is yes.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.
    Open Image Capture application.
    Click on the 4 little squares at bottom to view them as photos, not a list.
    Select the photos them click the No Entry icon at bottom to delete.

  • When try to view a movie with a external reader it makes a weird noise at time and other times works fine I think I read somewhere theat you can only use thereader that came with your computer

    When I put a movie DVD in my external reader it makes a strange noise and at times it gets hung up I have to force quit it and then I can eject the dvd
    I believe I read some wherre that you can only use the reader that came with my computer

    That sounds like the drive is faulty. CD and DVD will have seperate heads, and burn and read will be different lasers in each. If it's still in warranty I'd exchange it.

  • Is there any way I can recover deleted pictures from Camera Roll and iCloud? Please please help me. All of my precious pictures are gone that I can never EVER get back. I dont have any iCloud or Camera Roll backup; and my PC can't download more software.

    Hi everyone! I'm in need of extreme help. You see, today, two months ago I went out of the country from the United States of America. I took about 1500 pictures ONLY on my iPod touch. When I returned to the United States to my home, I accidentally deleted a little more than 100 pictures. Then, thinking I could get ALL of the pictures back at once, I restored my iPod touch from an iCloud backup I had a couple of days before. Instead of getting all of my pics back, they all got erased. The pictures that I did delete were deleted from Camera Roll AND Photo Stream (iCloud). Then, I was only able to get about 500 pictures back from iCloud. So about 1000 are still gone. When i did the restore, I thought all my pictures would be there, but they weren't and I couldn't possibly figure out why; because a restore from iTunes or iCloud is supposed to restore your device to the settings of the time you backed up your device. All of my other settings were just the way they were supposed tone for the time being, all except my pictures, which contained not one picture in any folder. So EVERYTHING from Cameta Roll was gone, and only about 500 pictures survived. I kept retoring and restoring, hoping they would come back but unfortunately they didn't. Then one time a restored again, I saw all of them back!! But then, within a blink of an eye, they disappeared as soon as I tapped on one picture. Then, I knew they were still in reach, but I just had to find them. Where could those 1000 pictures go? I looked up how to recover deleted photos, but I have to install a software. My computer CANNOT possibly take anymore software on it, my PC is very sensitive and I cannot delete anything off of it. Please please help me. What can I do to get my pictures back? They are memories that I can never EVER EVER get back. Thank you so much.

    Please please help me, if you know how.

  • Notification banners get stuck/freeze IOS8 & Facebook only recognises non existent camera roll

    Updated my iPhone 5 to IOS 8 yesterday, and I have noticed a few clear bugs, such as Facebook and other apps still connect to your 'camera roll', which now, annoyingly doesn't exist, so you can only post pictures to Facebook from this 'camera roll' folder which is now 'recently added', which only shows and lets you add/upload pictures taken within the last 30 days.
    But one of the most annoying bugs I have found is that the notification banners which pop up such as text messages, whats app messages and facebook notifcations/messages, freeze sometimes and I cannot swipe the banner off my screen. I have searched the internet and others are experiencing the same problem, can Apple fix this please?! Is anyone else experiencing this problem? any ideas from anyone ?
    Thanks!!

    The issues related to the 3rd party apps (ex: Facebook) should be resolved when the developer of THAT application updates their app to support iOS 8.  Regarding the notifications, you can go to settings, notifications, and change the type of notification to banners (which disappear on their own after a few seconds), or off, if they are getting stuck.  Again, that may have to do with the 3rd party apps not being updated to run with iOS 8.

  • How can I put selected pictures from camera roll into a seperate album removing them completly from camera roll??

    Im gunna be straight up honest here.. I have some rude pictures of my girlfriend on my iphone which I would like to keep for my own personal viewing but obviously dont want family and friends seeing when they are flicking threw my camera album which often happens. I had intended to make a private album put them all in there and put a passcode on the album. With all of apples features I would of thought this would be a standard thing you could do, however when I made the private album the pictures were still in my camera roll and if I try to delete them I am told the pictures will be removed completly from my phone.. This is stupid. What is the point in being able to make albums if the pictures are going to still all be in the camera roll!? Does anybody know of a way I can move pictures from camera roll to a private album?? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Photos placed in a user created album or in an existing album are not copied/duplicated. The photos placed in an album include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Camera Roll. Having an album for select photos is for viewing the select photos only without having to see all photos in the Camera Roll.
    The same applies to albums transferred from your computer. All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the Photo Library. Photos on the albums below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos appear as they are duplicated when they are not. This way you can view the photos in an album only by selecting the album, or all photos on the Photo Library or Camera Roll by selecting it.

  • My home computer had a virus and was reset. My photos were loaded from my adobe photoshop software. My computer will now only load from my camera roll and all my other photos are trapped on my 4g touch. Can anybody help?

    When I plug in my ipod I can only get pics from my camera roll. Its like the other pics are not even there. I am afraid if I sync it to my computer I will erase all these picture. There are over 2500 pics of my family and kids. I loaded them from my Adobe photoshop 5 software.

    You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com.  If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it.  (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
    If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
    In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album.  Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored.  Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another.  Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

  • How can I save MULTIPLE text pictures to camera roll?!

    Help. I've google searched it w no success so figured I'd post here.
    I have the iPhone 4S.  Version iOS 7.0.4(most up to date)
    There are many times I have a lot of pics sent to me in a text (for ex: 1 entire text message from 1 contact but they sent me 15 pics)
    Is there a way to save ALL 15 at once?!  I've tried holding the image, the "more" option but no options prompt/allow me to save all to camera roll in one shot.
    Only way I'm seeing to save to camera roll is by going to each individual pic & saving one by one to my camera roll which is entirely too time consuming!
    Help! Thanks!

    No.
    iCloud isn't a file storage service.
    You can backup your camera roll but you can only restore the entire roll to the device.
    Backup your photos to your computer.

  • HT4946 I have had my iPhone for about a year, and I have a photo file from my old blackberry. When I go to back up my photos, it only backs up the camera roll. How do I back up the other album? The laptop where I had those photos broke, please can someone

    You're going to have to email those photos to yourself.

  • How can i delete a picture from camera roll without deleting everywhere

    how can i delete a picture in camera roll without deleting everywhere

    You can't, when you 'copy' a photo into an album that you've created directly on the iPad then you are effectively just creating a pointer to the photo and not creating a second copy of it - so if you then delete the original photo from your iPad you will also be deleting all pointers to it and therefore removing it from other albums.

  • I sent a picture from camera roll to my computer over 12 hours ago and it hasn't arrived what can I do?

    I sent a picture from camera roll to my computer over 12 hours ago and it hasn't been received.  Since then, I've tried to send smaller ones to my computer and they have not arrived either.  Is there a queue I need to go into to delete the first picture that may be holding everything else up?  Or what can I do to unblock this feature?

  • How can I edit pictures (red eye) and camera-made videos (orientation)?

    How can I edit pictures (red eye) and camera-made videos (orientation)? The pictures are now in my documents, taken from another laptop. Apple has automatically orientated photos, but not the videos. I've looked at past messages on red eye, but cannot even highlight an area, as suggested in the answers. Need I put the pictures etc in another folder in order to edit?

    Use iphoto for the photos and iMovie for the video.

  • I've heard 2 things:  1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once  2) that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices. Which one is true?

    I need to transfer my Adobe Cs5 software (Student Teacher edition) and license from my old Mac Book Pro to a newer Mac Air. I've heard 2 things:
    1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once
    2)that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices
    Which one is true? How do I transfer the software and software license?

    Regardless of what heard you can do registration-wise, which you only need to do once, you are allowed to have two activated installations.  There is no limit to how many times you might activate an installation, but you can only maintain two activated installations at a time.  So if you have two machines you can have the software installed and activated on both.  If you get a new (third) machine tyhen you would have to deactivate one of the other two machines' installations in order to activate/use the sfotware on the newest one.

  • I have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see picture from one of the albums.what should i do?

    i have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see pictures from one of the albums.what should i do?

    You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
    Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.
