how to export iPad photo album into iPhoto.

I had my Windows laptop and iPad 2 stolen in a house break-in 😠. The laptop had my iTunes library and photos. I have an 1st gen iPad with several albums on it that are not part of the camera roll or photo stream. I want to export these to my beautiful new MacBook Air but when I connect the iPad to the Macbook it doesn't appear anywhere even in iPhoto or remote devices.

Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.

TIA

Jo

iPad, iOS 5.1, and new Macbook air

Open Image Capture app on your Mac and use it to import the pics.

Hi Tom,

thanks for the tip - i did as you suggested and yes my old ipad showed up but only the pics that were taken on the ipad it self showed up for import.

The albums I am trying to retrive were put from my old laptop onto my ipads through iTunes. As my library was on the laptop that was stolen I suspect that this is the root of the problem.
