Why are photos save as .jpeg instead of .jpg? Can this be corrected? In certain applications I have to manually change the ending so that the application can open the photo. Is there a setting to control to correct this?
No.
Strange, all my iPhone pictures are saved as .jpg and not .jpeg. Are you sure you don't have your question reversed?
Same here

As stated above, they should be .jpg. And no, you cannot change designated file format. But why does it matter? Those are just two versions of the same file extension. What are you using that can't open either or both?
It normally doesn't matter but when I email a photo from my iPhone to my Surface tablet and then attempt to upload it to eBay the app doesn't see it if the photo if the extention is .jpeg. I have to manually change it each time to .jpg. The It only happens to photo that I email directly off my iphone using the iPhone mail app. If I download the camera roll to my computer hard drive they download as .jpg not .jpeg. It's really werid.
Yes, but they only show up as .jpeg when I email them to my Surface Tablet. Or open them in the Windows 8 mail app. If I download them to my compuer hard drive they download as .jpg.

Then the problem is with the Surface. Any images coming out of the iPad have .jpg extensions.
When I mail photos (via GMail) from my iPhone they are received on my PC as .jpg files, even if sent at full resolution. Perhaps your e-mail service has imposed an attachment size limit, and in the process scales the attached picture down and alters the file extension?
What happens if you e-mail a photo from your iPhone and open the message from a PC instead of the Surface? What e-mail service are you using? (e.g. your ISP's service, or Yahoo, Gmail, iCloud, etc.) When you send the photo from your iPhone, are you selecting a reduced resolution?
I figured it out. It's the iPhone it's Hotmail. When I email a photo to my yahoo email account it comes in as a .jpg. In Hotmail it comes as a .jpeg. Thanks everyone for your suggestions. They really helped.
