How to transfer photos from iPad to Mac?

For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

If you want to change the order of photos that you synced to the iPad from your computer then you need to do it on your computer and then re-sync them : iPad photo sorting. Once the photos are in an album on the iPad you can't change their order.

You can also create new photo albums directly on the iPad if you have iOS 5+ on it via the Edit button at the top right of the album selection screen, and the photos that you copy into those albums (you can't move you can only copy) will be sorted by the order that you them into them i.e. if you add a new photo to the album then it should appear as the last one.

Image Capture comes with your Mac, is free, and will do what you need. It will recognize the iPad as a device and you can browse and select the images you want or do them all. If it is bombing out with all, do them in batches.

And there is another solution about How to transfer or backup photo from iPad to Mac.
