Why won't my iPod sync up with iPhoto though iTunes?

I always have my iPod classic (newest model) syncing everything automatically because of the 160GB storage, including my photo's in iPhoto.
Now, for some unknown reason, when syncing with photos ticked, iTunes displays this message: 'The iPod: "Haydn's iPod" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found' it took me some time to figure out it was photos and not music, so anyway, why is this? I haven't done anything that I can think would cause this error.
Thanks!

Often, this problem can be fixed if you locate and remove the iPod Photo Cache folder(s). A new one will be recreated the next time you sync Photos with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. Deleting this folder will not remove the original images from your library.

    My iPod is up to date along with my itunes. For some reason it just stopped syncing my music and I can't figure out why. Help!!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    It could be due to the school blocking iTunes.

  • Sync problems with iPhoto (Last iTunes & iPhoto & iOS)

         Some people have problems to with the music sync but anyone has the same problem but with the photos? iTunes doesn´t count the number of photos that suposse to be listed when you select your album on itunes/device/photos... I have once the problem with the music but it cames right after delete and resync my playlists.
         Thnks!
         Tested on iPhone 5 and iPad2 Mavericks iTunes 11.1.2 and iOS 7.0.3 Same problem with iPhoto 9.4.3 and 9.5."

    I have the same issue - iTunes 11.1.2, iOS 7.0.3, Mac OS X Mavericks, iMac 2011, iPhone 5S - Aperture 3.5 and iPhoto 9.5 - iTunes does not sync pictures (not even counts them) between my iPhone 5S and either one of the programs. When I select iPhoto, it even shows information of a library I am not opening with iPhoto anymore.
    I have resorted for the time being, waiting for a bug fix, to copy what I am interested in, into a folder and sync from it - that at least works.
    Moreover, contrary to what said here in other threads, I can Wi-fi sync my iPhone 5S and iPad 2 to iTunes 11.1.2.
    And, about all the complaints of iTunes not showing the "Info" tab anymore, Mac OS X now supports natively more types of accounts (Gmail, Yahoo, Twitter, Facebook, AOL, etc.). Everything can still be also set up manually in any case - so I don't understand what everybody is bragging about - you can avoid using iCloud, if so one wishes.

  • HT1386 why won't my ipod sync with a song I just purchased on my computer?

    Itunes shows that I purchased a song, but it won't sync with my ipod.  The song shows up in my purchase history.  How do I get it on my ipod?

    Try:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    What happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • Why won't my iPod sync with new, empty library?

    Had some problems with my laptop and had to reformat hard disk. Stupidly, didn't back up iTunes library. All the songs are still on the iPod but I can't download them to iTunes. Error message says iPod cannot sync with this library becasue it is set up to sync with another library (I assume that's the one I erased). Is there any way to download the songs on my iPod into a library on my laptop? Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

    iPod2PC Windows Only

    Floola Mac & Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Why won't my iPod sync with my iTunes? It says session failed to start.

    My iPod will not sync with my iTunes. It says session failed to start. Why is it doing that?

  • Why won't my ipod sync with iTunes?

    I have a first gen iPod Touch, running iOS5.1.1
    When I connect to iTunes, it is recognized, and I can manually sync.  However even when syncing, no new music or photos move onto the iPod.  It just rattles through the sync stages & nothing changes
    I used to think this was a memory issue, but I still have 1GB free space & I am not trying to add so much that it will completely fill (as far as I can tell)
    Any suggestions?
    thanks

    1 GB of free space is not much.
    You must have a 3G iPod since those can go to iOS 5.1.1. A 1G can only go to 3.1.3
    First verify your sync settings

  • Why won't my ipod sync music and movies

    I have had my ipod classic for a while (bout a year) and it was skipping songs so I decided to restore it....now it won't sync my music or my video's. anyone got any ideas

    Have you tried setting your iPod to manually add songs or videos. I found the whole sync thing to be a broken feature that only works when it wants to. With manual you can add any song or video without relying on sync.
