[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1857476, member: 83420"] When you take a pic on your iPhone it is stored in "Recents". Pics taken on any other device and synced to your iPhone is stored in "My Photo Stream". When you attach your iPhone to a Mac via USB and use the Photos app or Image Capture[U] the Mac only recognises pics in "Recents" and NOT in "My Photo Stream". That explains everything.[/U] The vast majority of your pics were taken on your wife's iPhone and synced to your iPhone. Check, and you'll see them in "My Photo Stream" - under Albums. They will not be uploadable to your Mac. BTW, if you copy pics from Facebook or some other Online service, you can choose where they are to be stored on your Mac. Most people choose either Downloads or Photos app. If the latter, they will appear in Photos app and in "My Photo Stream" on your iPhone assuming the two are in sync. PS Tell us if you want your wife's iPhone to sync or copy pics taken on her iPhone to appear in your Mac's Photos app. Ian [/QUOTE]
