IPhoto sync fails

My iPad syncs with my iPhoto.    Every few days the photos are gone from my iPad.   This may be because it's full.   Whether or not it finds photos, iTunes shows my iPad to have 10.3 GB free (except when I have photos synchronized, the gray "10.3G" is just a sliver).
I go into iPhoto and delete the cache files, I switch what is supposed to Sync, and usually nothing happens to get my photos back.   So I keep up for a day or two and finally it synchronizes again, after asking me if I mind deleting the (nonexistant) photos on my iPad.
Right now the capacity show:
59.17 GB
Audio 20.5 GB
Video 4.7 GB
Apps 23.1 GB
Books 0.02 GB
Other 0.67 GB
Free 10.3 GB.
My iPad is set to sync photos from iPhoto, with All photos, albums, Events and Faces (why faces?).   No videos.
I just opened iPhoto and it is showing two, apparently empty, copies of my iPad.  

There is no way to sync photo from your iPad to your Mac via iTunes.

    Hello lenmin,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where you're repeatedly prompted to authorize with your Apple ID in iTunes when syncing, please follow the directions in the article below.

  • Sync failed to start w/ iTunes 10.7, iPod Touch 3rd gen

    Since upgrading to iTunes 10.7 on Windows 7x64, I have had trouble getting my iPod Touch (3rd gen, 5.1.1) to sync. I am getting the message "sync failed to start". This happens with either WiFi or USB connection to the device. I know the iPod WiFi is working because the Remote app shows my iTunes library, fetches email, etc.
    After installing iTunes 10.7, when I connected via USB, Windows tried to search for and install new drivers. After a very long delay, I canceled the search and continued using the existing drivers. I'm not sure if this is related.

    I have resolved the problem by 'shutting down' my MacBook ('restarting' the computer was not sufficient to resolve it). While I was at it, I took the battery out briefly before rebooting – don't know if this made the difference, but I do know that Apple Tech Support have instructed me to remove the battery momentarily on previous occasions when resolving other issues with the computer. Anyway, either just shutting down (or shutting down + removing the battery) seems to have resolved the problem, as iTunes is once again recognising my iPod Touch and I'm able to sync again. Phew!

    make sure you're using the adobe cleaner, not crap cleaner, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    copy the installation files to a desktop folder and install from there.

  • WSUS Sync is not working Sync failed: UssCommunicationError: WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. --- System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote

    I know there are loads of posts with same issue and most of them were related to proxy and connectivity .
    This was case for me as well (few months back). Now the same error is back. But I've confirmed that FW ports and proxy are fine this time around.
    server is configured on http port 80 
    ERROR
    Sync failed: UssCommunicationError: WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. ---> System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid
    according to the validation procedure.~~at System.Web.Services.Protocols.WebClientProtocol.GetWebResponse(WebRequest request). Source: Microsoft.SystemsManagementServer.SoftwareUpdatesManagement.WSyncAction.WSyncAction.SyncWSUS
    I've checked proxy server connectivity. I'm able browse following site from WSUS server
    http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx?sku=wsus&version=3.2.7600.226&protocol=1.8
    I did telnet proxy server on the particular port (8080) and that is also fine.
    I've doubt on certificates, any idea which are the certificates which we need to look? And if certificate is expired then (my guess) we won't be able open the above mentioned windows update catalog site?
    Any tips appreciated !

    Hi Lawrence ! - Many thanks for looking into this thread and replying. Appreciate your help.
    Your reply  ("SSL is enabled/configured, and the certificate being used is invalid
    (or the cert does not exist or cannot be obtained), or the SSL connection could not be established.") is very helpful.
    I've already tested CONTENT DOWNLOAD and it's working fine. WSUS Sync was also working fine for years with proxy server configured on port (8080) and WSUS server on port 80.
    My Guess (this is my best guess ;)) is this something to do with Firewall or Proxy side configuration rather than WSUS. However, I'm not finding a way to prove this to proxy/firewall team. From their perspective all the required port communication open and
    proxy server is also reachable. More over we're able to access internet (Microsoft Update Catalog site) over same port (8080).
    Any other hints where I can prove them it's a sure shot problem from their side.
    Thanks again !!

    I cannot install Creative Suite 5.5 on my Windows 7 Professional. I keep getting error message: "Exit Code: 15 - Media DB sync failed". I have disabled UAC and Startup items and Services with no luck. Can you please help?

    I am sorry Erickkasner but there is no longer direct support provided for Creative Suite 5.5 installation issues.
    You are welcome to post any specific errors you are able to discover within your installation log to this discussion.  Since you are using Windows then Exit Code 15 could mean one of the following:
    Installer database is corrupted
    Update pending to your operating system
    Improper permissions set for the Media.db
    The installation log file should provide additional insight into the exact error you are experiencing.  Please make sure to use the find command to look for the words 'ERROR' and 'FATAL' to locate the relevant error messages.

  • I get an error message that sync failed to start

    When I try to sync my Ipod Touch it shows that it is waiting to sync but then I get an error message that sync failed to start.  I have tried restore and re starting my computer but I still get the same message, what is going on and how do I fix it? Please help!

    Quit iTunes, restart your computer, restart your iPad and try again. If it doesn't work with a restart of the iPad, try a reset of the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Intermittent iPhoto sync problem

    I've had an iPhone 4 for the past 4 months. Recently (around when I upgraded to iLife 2011), iPhoto sometimes does not "see" my iPhone. I'll plug it in, iTunes will open and start to sync, but iPhoto just sits there and the iPhone doesn't pop up in the side bar.
    I've found that if I open up Image Capture and let it "scan" the iPhone for photos, iPhoto will recognize the iPhone when Image Capture finishes scanning. This takes about 5 minutes though, and is obviously just a nasty workaround.
    Has anybody else experienced intermittent problems with iPhoto sync?
    On topic feature request: I find that when iPhoto DOES recognize the device, the sync process is far from automated. It keeps asking me weather or not I want to import photos that have already been imported (why would I ever want to do that!?), and it then asks me if I want to delete photos from the iPhone as it imports. I think the default behavior should be like iTunes music sync. It just "updates" iPhoto with new photos, and leaves everything else alone. It would be nice to see this sync process built into iTunes so I don't have to worry about two applications syncing properly when I plug in my phone.

  • Sync fails on all devices

    My sync fails with all devices.
    iPhone 5
    iPod 5
    iPad 2
    all previously backed up. Ever since the first backup they have failed. several updates in iOS and iTunes. I am upgrading my HDD on my PC running Win 7. Every piece of software is a fresh install. And still fail. Tried changing USB ports. No change. Is there any log file that is on the devices that could block this, if it is corrupt? I've already done a hard reset on one of the phones and no change. This is rrrrreeeeeaaaalllyyy irritating. I love the phones and iPad. I'm really ticked at iTunes. Always had problems with it. It has always bogged my computer down and never shows you what its doing.
    Please help!!!!!!!!!

    check out funambol or scheduleworld
    or stick with the gmailsync... it will eventually work... it just got released not to long ago... they will work out the bugs... once they do, it will be the next best thing to a BES
