IPhone pics always upside down...

13 years ago

IPhone is the only 'Apple' I use and use the camera often. Many times when I post a photo it is upside down. I have used Microsoft Picture Manager to rotate it properly, but when I post the photo it shows upside down.

On the Apple forum they blame Microsoft for not reading some tag. Whatever.....does anyone else run into this? I miss my Blackberry.

Thanks as always,
Jane

If your posted photos are always upside down, I have a guaranteed solution. The next time you're about to snap a photo that you'll want to post:

1) Prepare to take the photo and hold your phone the way you normally do

2) Pause for a moment and rotate the camera 180 degrees

3) Take the photo. You'll find when you post it, it's not upside down.

Jerry, They look great. I didn't know you were doing that. All of my tomatoes this year are in raised beds in cages. I have been thinking of ways to do the same thing next spring except in five gallon buckets hanging from my cucumber trellis. I just like to play with stuff. I like the pots you use because it adds a decorative effect to the whole thing. We did pick and eat our first (two) ripe tomatoes today. They were great. Every year it seems after we eat the first ripe tomato, we are soon flooded with tomatoes. I'm looking forward to it. Ted

Well, I guess this proves the iPhone advertisement that many, many photos today are taken with phones rather than cameras! In any case --- sideways for me too, but if I click on the photo, a new screen comes up showing it in correct position. Molie

sorry... I typed this a couple hours ago, forgot to hit the post button... This is a very sporting hosta. I've got a Pineapple Juice - the name they give the yellow version that lacks the green margin... it was stable for about 5 years and now a good section of it is dark green with a yellow edge... in other words, a sport that looks pretty much identical to Pineapple Punch... or maybe like Pineapple Ripple. The difference, based on their registrations, is that PP is dark green centered and PR is medium green... I'll have to compare some greens one of these days. Anyway, these all come originally from a wavy lanced green one called Pineapple Poll. It is registered as a cross between sieboldianna and lancifolia. I sure don't see any big round blue in it, but it shares a lot of characteristics with good old lancifolia. So... if you have one with no margins, I think you can change the label to Pineapple Juice. (I opposed this for so long, but in fact I think that is exactly what is happening in the tissue culture labs. They clone PUC... then instead of throwing away the all-yellow culls, they rename them. Sometimes the plants go out to growers as small tcs with iffy margins... I know I had at least one PUC tc that went all yellow.

I'm using an iPad - the original not a newer one with camera. The pictures posted above- the first one at 11:12 are upside down for me and the second ones at 11:14 are right side up. Strange that even iPad users are seeing them differently. I even rotated my iPad and the pictures still stay the same.

Thanks for the links Zep. I did check those and that's where they talk about tags which Windows doesn't read. The recommendation is to use Picassa which I don't know how to use to post photos here.

Snidely, I have tried that many times. It doesn't work. It seems the way the picture comes into the computer is 'willy-nilly.' Sometimes its correct, other times its sideways or upside-down. Even when I correct using MS Photo Editor, it doesn't correct the problem. The photo looks right on Photo Editior, but when I bring it into GW, it rotates again. Very weird, I've never had this happen before.

I'll have to learn Picassa.

Just wanted to say thanks for the info given. The only fix I could find was to use Picasa. I load the photos and they are automatically straightened. Then I 'save' to My Pic Folder and they are correct. Its a pain, but I agree, Apple needs to fix this.
