About Photos

iPhone lets you carry photos and videos with you, so you can share them with your
family, friends, and associates. You can sync photos and videos (Mac only) from your
computer, view photos and videos (iPhone 3GS only) taken with the built-in camera,
use photos as wallpaper, and assign photos to identify contacts when they call.
You can also send photos and videos in email messages, send photos and videos
(iPhone 3GS only) in MMS messages, and upload photos and videos to MobileMe
galleries.

Note: MMS is available only on iPhone 3G or later and if supported by your carrier.

Syncing Photos and Videos with Your Computer

iTunes can sync your photos and videos (Mac only) with the following applications:

Mac: iPhoto 4.0.3 or later, or Aperture

PC: Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later

See “Syncing with iTunes” on page 12.

iPhone supports H.264 and MPEG-4 video formats, with AAC audio. If you are having
trouble syncing a video to iPhone, you might be able to use iTunes to create an iPhone
version of the video.

Create an iPhone version of a video:

1

Copy the video to your iTunes library.

2

In iTunes, select Movies in the Library list and select the video you want to sync.

3

Choose Advanced > “Create iPod or iPhone Version.”
