Filenames

Alice Carson 13 years ago updated 12 years ago 1
I want to transfer a folder of photos to my iPad, then, after going through and deleting some and modifying some, I want to transfer them back to my PC. Unfortunately, the filenames are not the original names. My photo filenames have the date of the photo and a description of what they were.
Is there a way to keep the filenames throughout the transfers?
Dear Alice,

Thanks for contacting us. I will be more then happy to help you.

The iPhone and iPad have their own naming systems that we can't control. Basically, we use a programming interface provided by Apple to save photos and videos. Then, the 'Photos' app assigns a new name to each photo. We can't choose the name of the photos or videos, they are assigned sequentially to each photo and video. We simply use the names assigned by Apple to each photo. Once the photos are on your computer after a transfer then you can rename them as you would like.

I hope this helps!

Warm Regards,

Amber
