Once you have iOS 8.1 installed on your device the Seagate Media App will no longer have access to all your Photo Booth photos. This is because Photo Booth is outside of Camera Roll. The Seagate Media App does have access to Camera Roll, but those are only photos and videos taken with the normal Camera. If you want to access any photos taken in Photo Booth you will need to create a custom album with your media. The Seagate Media App will have access to this custom album. Note: Make sure that you give the Seagate Media App access to your photos. To do this navigate to Settings > Privacy > Photos, make sure that access is granted for the Seagate Media App.
Please follow the steps below to create a custom album of your Photo Booth photos:
- Navigate to Photos on your iOS device.
- Select Albums.
- Select the + sign to create a new album, then create a name for your album.
- Now choose which photos you would like to add to the album then hit Done. Note: you can Select All or tap on each photo that you would like to select.
-
Now the new album shows up under Albums
- Open the Seagate Media App.
- Choose to view data on your iOS device.
- The new folder shows up along with Camera Roll.
Now that the Seagate Media app has access to your media you are able to upload it to your Seagate drive.
