Hello,

Sometime in October my Whatsapp photos switched from storing on 'camera roll' to being within Whatsapp. I did not realise this until recently and want to download these photos to my PC. I have since changed my Whatsapp settings back to storing photos on the camera roll but I want to save all the missing photos. They are NOT on icloud as icloud is switched off. The photos are not visible using MS Photos app and they are not visible using Window explorer. Can anyone tell me how to transfer these 'lost' photos?
thank you

Hello, while time consuming, you should be able to individually "download" the photos and save them to your camera roll.

Instagram caption issue

Hello,

All of a sudden, I have lost the ability to post captions. I am doing the exact same process I did before without the same result. First, it will post the photo and not the caption. Then if I try to edit and post it, I keep getting an error message I have not seen before...."There was an error saving your changes" I cannot figure how to get it back to how it has been working for over 200 posts. I have tried removing, and reloading the app with no success. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you. - Gary
