I've only just got an iPad so forgive me if this is really basic but I want to make a copy of a photo I have taken with the camera on the iPad so I can edit one but still have the original. I've tried copy image but it doesn't seem to do anything, I'm not sure if it saves it somewhere else or it's just a copy and paste function?
iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi
What you are doing is a copy and paste function. After you copy the photo, it is placed on the iPad clipboard - which is invisible and cannot be accessed. The photo will remain in the clipboard until you copy something else which will replace the photo.
What app are you using for editing? I use PhotoPad for a little bit of editing and when I edit the photo and save it, it does not replace the original photo.
