How to show the photos tab in iTunes? Problem since ios 7 update.

Where is the photo tab on iTunes? My iPad is listed on the left side in iTunes, but there is no photos tab.
The left hand pane window in iTunes is maximized, but I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.
Other similar articles that do not fix my problem are:

Any sugegstions are greatly appreciated.
Note the same thing happens when I connect an iPod.

Don't worry, there is no duplication. Photo Library is just a summary all the photos from different folders that you have synced over. Right now you have synced only one folder to the library and therefore your Synced folder (14photos) is equal to Photos Library(14).
Say you have synced 3 folders, A(15), B(8), C(12), on you iPod you will have Albums 'photo Library (35), A(15), B(8), C(12). So you have an option to display slideshow of all photos by using Photo Library or just photos within particular folder by going into A or B or C. Hope above explains.

You don't see it on the left-hand side of iTunes - you need to connect and select the iPad on the left-hand side, and then one of the tabs on the right-hand side that you use to select which content to sync to the iPad should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
You will need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent sync remains on the iPad, not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from it.

I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue. It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
This is incorrect.
The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.

That would be the wireless number assigned by AT&T when the purchaser of the iPhone signed up as a customer with AT&T. If neither you nor your uncle ever activated the iPhone with AT&T, click the "non customer" button.
Note that jailbreaking often renders it impossible to get an iPhone officially unlocked, so don't be surprised if it fails. If it does, then you may have to buy a new iPhone, this time one that is officially unlocked.

My iphone will not recognize any usb cables. I have tried 3 official apple ones and 2 different plugs. Ive tried plugging it into my laptop but will not find the phone. it has had problems since i updated my ios. Battery has been replaced.

test if it charges with an ac charger
test if it's detected by another computer
if it's no to both then likely the connector is broken
if it's yes to both thne it's likely your computers itunes install which is the problem

Where is the photo tab on itunes? My device is not listed on the left side of my screen and there is no photos tab on the right of my screen. I want to delete photo albums that were synced through itunes to my ipad 3.

I synced several photo albums to my iPad 3 from my computer through iTunes. Now, I would like to remove them and have discovered that they cannot be removed except through using iTunes. Instructions that I've read say that once the device is connected to and selected from the list in iTunes, select the Photo Tab and then the folder that contains the photos etc. I never get that far because I do not have a Photo Tab to select in iTunes. How do I find this illusive tab so that I can delete these albums that are merely duplications of other pictures and are just occupying space. I need to get rid of them. Can anyone help me find the photo tab. I cannot move past that step until I do. Also, my device is not listed on the left side as stated in the instructions. It's in the bar on the upper right area of my screen and is automatically selected when connected. I am using the current version 11.1 for iTunes and IOS 7 on my iPad 3, if that helps.

I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

Where is the photo tab in itunes 11

updated to new itunes 11 but the photo tab (which is usually on the top with summary, videos etc) is missing. how do i transfer photos form windows back to iphone?

I am having problems with this too. I have tried changing my screen resolution, and I can't find a way to resize the window. Grabbing the bottom, right corner of the screen didn't work either. I have read about 5 forums on this and can't seem to figure it out. Seems like a common problem. How else have you all suceeded in finding this tab?

Where is the photo tab in Itunes 12.0.1.26 ? (Windows 7, iphone 5s)

Hello. I'm searching for a way to get my photos _from_ my iphone 5s in iTunes. I don't see the photo tab on my iphone. Where can I find it ?
Here is what I see in my itunes:

Your screenshot shows the option for iTunes to use a folder to put photos from the computer to your iPhone.
With the phone connected to your computer, you should see an external drive listed in Windows Explorer. Look in there for photos taken on the phone that you wish to transfer to the computer.

Has anyone had the photo tab in iTunes software disappear?

The photo tab in my iTunes sofware can't be found in the summary. When I sync my Iphone I get the message it can't sync saying "ITunes cannot sync photos to the IPhone because the folder "Pictures" cannot be found. How can I redirect iTunes to look for the pictures folder on my PC?

Yes. There are instances when you will get that error. That is if you have added to many credit cards on your account. You can contact email support for more information.

Need help finding the photos tab to sync up my iPad and PC

If you are using a mac, you use iphoto.
If you are on windows, you use whatever camera software windows uses.
Itunes does not import photos.

I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod. I don't see the photos tab in Itunes?? Prob user error but wanted to get some help.

I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod. I don't see the photos tab in I-tunes? I'm sure its user error but wanted to get some help.

What's the origin of this external drive? It sounds very much like it's a Windows-formatted (NTFS) drive which Macs can't write to. If you can, copy the files off the drive, reformat it as Mac format (using Disk Utility) and copy the files back. If you need to continue writing to it from a Windows PC, you should format it ExFAT in Disk Utility.

Error in recognizing the "photo" tab in Itunes when syncing to Ipad

Hi guys,
I am not able to sync the photos with my Ipad anymore. When the IPad is connected to the Mac and ITunes is running, the Ipad is detected but the the last tab "Photos" in the upper right side if ITunes cannot show me the options to check the boxes of which photos I would like to sync. I've already restored the IPad, changed the computer, updated the iTunes version, but the problem remains. It seems not to be a problem with the ITunes since this event does not occur with my IPhone. My ITunes version is 11.2.2 (3), my Iphoto version in 8.1.2 (424) and my OS X version is 10.9.2. The device is an IPad 2 MC980GP/A.
I attached a printed screen image to give you an example.
And when a try to transfer photos by dragging files from iPhoto to Itunes, an error message indicates that the files could not be copied since the file type is not compatible with my iPad. As you can see, I am transferring .jpg, .png and .bmp photo files.... so
I could transfer some photos with the TunesGo for Mac but I really wanna fix this problem and continue transferring my photos from iPhoto using the iTunes.
Thank y'll for the help.
Bruno

my Iphoto version in 8.1.2 (424) and my OS X version is 10.9.2.
Your iPhoto version is not compatible with Mavericks, even if it is working. In the long run, consider to upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and MacOS X 10.9.4.
You seem to have covered most of the trouble shooting already. Perhaps it is problem with broken preferences files.
Open your Home/Library/Preferences folder and move these files to the Desktop, if they exist:
com.apple.iApps.plist
com.apple.iApps.lockfile
Then reboot and try syncing the photos again.
Your User library is hidden by default since MacOS X 10.7. Lion.
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the "view options".
Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the "Library" folder in your home folder, locate the "Preferences" folder and remove the files
mentioned above.

HT201317 I guess photo stream made the photo tab in ITunes 11 unecessary; correct? I spent more than an hour looking for it.

is that correct? I spent an hour looking for it and thought maybe it was a glitch in the new app or ios.

However, I'm not sure what the itunes photos add, if one is using photostream.
The iTunes photos tab lets you download any photos that were on the iPhone before Photo Stream was introduced or do a total download of your iPhone's photos if you haven't done so previously. It's also for us "control freaks".
