    I was editing a photo and clicked "Save as". An error message popped up and then asked do you want to save this photo? I clicked Yes. Oops. It overwrote the original file! How do I undo this save and revert it to the original?

    :)

  3. Saving photos

    Hi DustinHennin,

    First, congratulations on being one of the first folks to get the elusive Samsung ATIV S.

    Would you please elaborate as to what app you're using to view photos and what steps you're taking in order to save the photos?

    For instance, if I'm in the People hub and see a pic someone posted that I want to save to my phone:

    • I simply tap on the photo and it brings it to another screen.
    • Then I tap the ellipses (...) at the bottom of the screen and choose save to phone.
    • Next, I go back to my Start screen and tap on Photos.
    • Tap on albums.
    • Tap on Save Pictures.
    • My latest photo that I saved should be there at the top.

    Here's some more information about
    Photos on Windows Phone
    .

    I hope this helps!

    David
