I love to organize my photos as albums on my iOS devices, but I keep them organized by folders on the Mac, so that other users with Windows PCs can view these shared folders too at my house.
I would love to export the photos from my iPhone/iPad to my Mac, with the albums created on the iOS to specific folders on my Mac.
Can I do that automatically?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately syncing albums created on an iOS device back to a computer is not possible via iPhoto.
There might be some 3rd party software which will let you do this. PhoneView comes to mind. I believe it allows you to view your iOS photos by album. You could select an album and then copy those photos into a folder for that album. Repeat for each album.
C. Cruz was spot-on 1 year ago and remains so - I just did this using Phone View ( v 2.8.4 ) - and it could not have been easier - just like exporting/copying files in any other program - a cinch for even any barely-seasoned Mac user
(there may be other applications that do same now, but when P View first came out, they were the one and only, and at the time it was a gods-send (yes, godS for you BSG frackin' fans...) so my loyalty stays with them
plus, you can get at other individual folders/files = copy/export specific voice mails, texts, etc - So Simple - just keep your OS AND your version of PhoneView up to date and should be as simple as it just was for me...
Thank you for the tip. I appreciate it. Just used it myself!
How can I export the photo albums from my iPhone to folders on my Mac?
