Dec 1, 2013 2:22 PM in response to CincyChrisby Kenichi Watanabe,You cannot use iTunes to extract photos from an iPod. When iTunes syncs photos to the iPod, the images are converted to a lower resolution that matches the iPod's small screen, and stored in a single database file. This is done to save storage space on the iPod.
There is an option on the iPod's Photos screen in iTunes, to include the full-resolution photo files when syncing. IF this setting was enabled when you synced the photos to the iPod, THEN the full-res photo files will be in Photos folder on the iPod, which you can access by enabling disk use.
NOTE: There may be third-party software that can extract separate images from the special photo database file on the iPod. However, the images will still be low-res (optimized for the iPod's small screen).
