Hello Ann,
Thank you for clarifying.

The photo transfer App can only see the Camera Roll (Photo section) of the iDevices, by limitation from the Apple iOS.

You can try connecting the iDevice to the computer's USB port, to copy them to the (Photo section) Camera Roll area, thru your computer, by treating the iDevice as a USB storage device, without starting or using iTunes.

If you're using Windows XP, or other windows OS, it will allow you to see the photos area on the iDevice, as a folder, in the "My Computer" window, viewable the same way you open any other hard drive window, and can easily be copied to the iDevice, from your computer that way.

The Mac OS may also do this, I just use Windows, so Enrique may need to verify the Mac options for you.

Once placed in that default iDevice Photo's area, they can be seen by the photo transfer App, and transferred easily using it, to any other iDevice, afterwards.

One extra note - if you create a "Videos" folder on your iDevice Photos area (Camera Roll) first, by using your iDevice to create it, it will show in that window when you use the above method to transfer them from computer to the Camera Roll.
Then just open that sub-folder "Videos" and place the videos you made, to there.

**** Edited: corrected info ****
I just tried connecting to the computers USB port, and didn't see the extra folders I created. ... This must have been changed with iOS 5 , because I was able to add a folder this way, from my computer, onto the Camera Roll area of the iPad2 using iOS 4, last year. ... The iPad2 showed as a camera , under the listing of Scanners and Cameras, in the Windows XP "My Computer" window. ... It still shows like this in iOS 5.1, but no "Add Folder" option is available with "right-mouse-button" clicking, to see the mini menu in XP OS. ... Oh well. :-( ... Even more needed now is Enrique's Photo Transfer App, and getting Apple to allow private Video Folder creation in the iDevice's "Video" folder.

If you have any further questions, please ask.
Enrique, Amber, or I will try to help you.

Hi Janice,
Yes the size limit is measured in seconds, and shows in the Settings section of the iDevice, on the Settings Column side, lower down, by the Apps listing.

Locate the "Transfer" button logo, tap it and on the other side, find,
"Max Video Duration (Secs)"
Change this default to the seconds you need ...
1 hour video is 60min x 60 sec = 3600 sec
So 15 min = 900 seconds
But you can leave it more and it won't hurt. .. Mine is 5000 seconds.

Enrique or Amber can verify if this is OK to keep like this, but mine hasn't hurt anything.

One note, it will take a while to transfer over standard wifi, but will be faster with the newer "n" routers. The iDevices support this faster transfer speed.
But even with wireless "n" 150MB to 300MB speeds, 2GB is still a lot of data.

Depending on how fast it transfers, it could take 10's of minutes, (15 or 20)
... to nearly an hour or more. ...!

It should get there though. :-)

***Edited***
I just realized, you're going from iDevice to another iDevice, so you'll
most likely connect to each-other at the fastest wireless "n" connection,
as long as it just uses each device, without having to go thru a slower router also.

Enrique can verify this, ... he knows his program better than I do. :-)

If you can get those videos moved to the iDevice's "Camera-Roll" section, where photos are, you'll be able to "see" them with the transfer App.

If they're in an album, called "Videos" that you created already, within the camera roll area, and can't see the button in the browser, to choose the videos, you may not have the flash player installed. ... Those buttons are seen using the flash plugin to the browser.

My question is, if you didn't create them on the iDevice, how did they get onto the iDevice?

You stated they're stored on the iDevice under "Videos", and then asked can a video only be transferred if made with the iDevice.
So I'm a bit confused with your statement and question, please clarify. :-)

Lynne,
If the App is not downloading, but you're sure all login iTunes account info is the same, you may need to reboot your iPhone.

To reboot, there are two ways ... Soft-boot and Hard-boot.

Soft-boot...
Hold the side power-button in until a slider says 'Slide to Power off'
Slide it to power the device off ... And wait until it's fully finished closing down...
Now press the side power button again to restart it... And try downloading the App.

Hard-boot...
Press both the side power-button and the Home-button at the same time, together...
Keep them pressed until you see the Apple logo, (you'll see the Slider message on top, first), keep the both buttons pressed until the Apple Logo shows... then Release them ...
You don't need to press the side power-button alone to restart, the iDevice will restart by itself.

Usually a Soft-boot works, but sometimes, for stubborn problems, a Hard-boot is needed to reset the memory as well.

Hi, you can right-mouse-button click on the link with the ZIP file, and choose...
'Save Target As...' and you'll have an option to save it to the place you want on your hard drive, or other media storage device... So you'll know where it went ... :-)

You mentioned using WinZip, so I'm assuming you're using a PC, not Mac OS.
My advice is PC based using Internet Explorer.

Enrique can advise how to do this on a Mac based OS.

Maybe the Photo Transfer App, can be updated to distinguish between these albums, from others, and advise how to edit or transfer to them, rather than just blocking them from being seen.

Hi, NickMn,

I may be wrong, but I think your question was answered, regarding how to tell "Editable Albums" from others... In Enrique's statement ...

"...Some of those albums are not editable (when created with iPhoto) and those albums should not be listed. If they are then that's a bug that we need to correct. I will go ahead and investigate further this issue. ..."

I'm assuming you would not ordinarily see non-editable albums, and if they are in fact seen in this App, it's a "bug" that will be fixed in a future update.
Also, non-editable albums are those not created from the iDevice, as Enrique mentioned, made in iPhoto.
(I'm assuming iPhoto is a Mac program? I have PC's)

Enrique, please confirm, ... if the album is made from an outside-source, onto the iDevice, can THAT outside-source edit that album?

For example- one made with iPhoto, or other PC or Mac program, can that re-edit the album made onto the iDevice?
