Definitely one of the poorest iTunes features is the way it handles Pictures
Whether you want to:
- Get Photos off iPhone
- Download Photos to iPhone
- Transfer Pictures from iPhone to Computer
- Copy Photos from iPhone to PC
- Add Photos to iPhone
- Delete / Remove / Erase Photos individually from iPhone
- etc...
iTunes is way too limited
What we need is a visual interface with thumbnails we can drag between iPhone Albums and Computer Folders
We've been looking around for a long time and tested all possible iPhone Photo Management softwares
Most were disappointing until we bumped into a pretty cool piece of software
It's a two-sided Program, which clearly shows iPhone Photographs on one side and Computer Pictures on the other
You can move, drag photos both ways from Computer to iPhone and the other way round, create Photo Albums, rename and edit existing ones, etc...

Sync iPhone Apps with iPad
Transferring your iPhone Apps to your iPad couldn't be easier
Start with a backup of your iPhone Apps to iTunes:
- Connect your iPhone to your Computer ( iTunes should open up automatically. If not, launch it from Start->All Programs->iTunes->iTunes )
- Click your iPhone in the "Devices" section on the left
- Click the "Apps" tab
- Check the "Sync Apps" check box
- Select the Apps you want to sync
- Click the "Sync" button in iTunes lower-right corner
Now that your iPhone Apps are transferred to iTunes, you just need to Sync your iPad with iTunes
- Connect your iPad to your Computer
- In iTunes, click your iPad in the "Devices" section on the left
- Click the "Apps" tab
- Check the "Sync Apps" check box
- Select the Apps you want to sync
- Click the "Sync" button in iTunes lower-right corner
Notes & possible issues
- You can of course use this procedure to transfer your Apps the other way round, from iPad to iPhone and from any iPod device to any other
Sync more than one iPod, iPhone or iPad with iTunes - Sync multiple iPhone with one Computer - Sync iPhone plus iPad with iTunes
Note: for instructions on How to Keep iPhone synchronized with multiple iTunes libraries, please refer to our dedicated post
Contrary of what many people believe ( or fear ), there's no problem syncing as many iPod devices to iTunes as you want
- Just connect any device ( iPod, iPhone or iPad ) to your Computer
- In iTunes, click your iPhone or iPad in the "Devices" section on the left
- Use tabs such as "Info" or "Apps" to set up your synchronization settings
- When you are done, click the "Sync" button in iTunes lower-right corner
- Now, connect another iPod, iPhone or iPad and you'll be able to set its sync preferences independantly from the first one. iTunes is able to manage several iPod devices separately without mixing anything up
Notes & possible issues
- If iTunes warns you that your iPhone is linked to another library and asks whether you want to sync /delete it, don't do so, unless your iPhone is empty as this would erase its whole contents
Instead, if one of your iPhones is synced to another computer ( library ), start by preventing iTunes from synchronizing iPhone and then Import iPhone content to iTunes
Then only, you can sync your iPhone with your computer - In case you need to Populate iTunes based on iPhone, please follow our step by step instructions
- To manage two sets of iPhone Contacts and Calendars on a single computer, you need to create two user accounts on your computer
