Hi guys,
I'm hoping you can help me with this. Basically syncing Photos on the iPhone is driving me mad as it seems to be duplicating things.
Right so I've tried the following options:
iPhoto - iPhoto works well but I don't like how it locks all the photos in a library as I use Windows too I like to store photos so it can see them too.
So I thought I'd pick it to just sync a with a folder (stored on an exfat drive so Windows can see it). So I created a folder called iPhone Photos and set up the sync in iTunes with it. Problem is now on the iPhone its adding Camera Roll, iPhone Photos and another 1 called Photo Library.
Now I get the idea of Camera Roll is like a temporary folder of photos until I move ones I want to keep in iPhone Photos but what is this "Photo Library" its duplicating all my photos.
Any help you can give would be great. Not ever synced my photos on my old iPhone 3GS never wanted to but on the new iPhone 5 I want to, as I love the camera on it.
Edit: Also what photos get sent to photostream and what is it's benefit as that duplicates photos too plus it has photos I dont want to keep in there.
Thanks.
