A way to only sync album picks with iOS?

I have a smart album that filters by 4 stars or above and I like to keep these photos synced at all times with my iphone/ipads. It works ok except that when we do multiple edits of the same photo in a stack they all get sync'ed. So if we have 7 different style of the same photo, all 7 would go into the devices. Album pick seems to have no effect with this. Is there any around this? I don't see any customization on the iTunes side so perhaps there is a way to make a smart album that only includes one photo of each stack?

Okay, haven't gotten my Touch yet. When you plug it in, on the Summary page in iTunes is there a box toward the bottom that says "Sync only checked items"?

Becasue that is the way the ****** iphone is designed.
You can only sync with one ******computer.
There is nothing to ****** fix.
It is the ****** design of the iphone. It is ****** by design.

1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

How do I get my music from my IPod back in the library of my new computer, it tells me I can only Sync my IPod with one library but I don't have my old PC anymore?

How can I Sync my IPod in ITune on a new PC and get the music from the IPod in the library and avoid this msg:
You can only Sync one library with your IPod?

Use the backup of the media and other important files from the old computer to put them on the new computer.
iTunes only syncs with one computer/library at a time.
If you have failed to maintain a backup or no longer have the old computer, you may be out of luck.
iTunes purchases can be transfered from the iDevice. Connect the device, do NOT sync. Select File > Transfer Purchases.
This will only transfer iTunes purchases. All other media will not transfer and will be wiped from the device when it is synced with a new computer/library.

HT1386 when i try to sync, each device i sync to ends up with different amount of information, for instance in iTunes, i have my eric claption collection which has 34 albums. but when i sync to my i phone, there are only 26 albums, same with my touch, on

When I sync my I tune music library to my other devices, none of the other devices end up with the same amount of music. For instance, in my itunes library on my mac, i have 34 complete albums. When I sync to my iphone only 26 albums come over (it is not a memory issue, i have 25 gb of free space on my iphone), on my touch, again syncing with changing anysetting, i only getr 26 albums, but not the same 26 albums that i get with my iphone, again no memory issue. When I sync my ipad mini, my clapton collection tells me I have 48 albums with 340 songs, agin on my mac I only have 34 albums with 421 songs, agan, no setting changed between syncs. on My Ipad tablet, my clapton library shows 340 songs with 57 albums. By the way if I go into my clapton library and count manually how many albums are on my ipad there are only 25.
Tech suppoert has been worthless, they keep haveing me do the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. Pure insanityl
Does anyone have similar issues or have a clue as to what is going on or where to get competent help in resolving these issuse.

Are all these songs associated with the same Apple ID or were some purchased on another account?
Are they tagged properly? In the library does it break an album out into several different albums with a few tracks each?
Check your sync settings for each device. Do you accidentally have only certain songs/albums syncing?

Is there a way to only sync my photos?

Hi.
I just got a new iPhone 5c, which was an upgrade from my 4s. I backed up my 4s to my computer, instead of iCloud. I'm about to plus my 5c into the computer and I was wondering if there is a way to choose what I was to restore to my phone? For an example, when I plug my phone in, it will ask me if I want to restore my backup to this phone. I don't want messages to load back onto it, I just want the pictures, and I already uploaded all the apps myself. Is there a way to only do pictures? When it gets to the menu if I want to reload this phone or start fresh what would I click on? Thanks.

No.
Transferring a backup is all or none.
You can import the photos/videos from the 4S camera roll with your computer as with any other digital camera which you should have already been doing.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
You can transfer select photos/videos from your computer to the new iPhone via the iTunes sync process - selected under the Photos tab for your new iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

HT4847 Is there a way to only sync your camera roll (new pictures) to iCloud or is it an all or nothing type thing?

I'm wondering if there is anyway to change your backup settings through iCloud to only sync the camera roll as opposed to all of the other folders as well. Considering your new pictures automatically save in your camera roll, it would make sense to be able to just save the new pictures one would think. I'm pretty sure it's not possible, but I was hoping that I may be overlooking something. Thanks in advance

Photo stream only adds new photos by design. It also only adds photos from the camera roll, not any albums (folders)*. Photos added to the camera roll are automatically added to photo stream, once enabled. The remain in photo stream for 30 days. After 30 days they are deleted from photo stream, but will remain in your My Photo Stream folder until deleted.
*Any album that includes photos from your camera roll only contains links to the photos in the camera roll, not duplicate photos. Photo stream doesn't add these "photos" because the actual photos they link to are in the camera roll.

ITunes - syncing over WiFi with iOS 7

Ever since upgrading two phones to iOS 7, iTunes is spamming the console with constant disconnects:
[date] server iTunes[pid]: Entered:_AMMuxedDeviceDisconnected, mux-device:id
[date] server iTunes[pid]: Entered:__thr_AMMuxedDeviceDisconnected, mux-device:id
etc etc
This goes on for a while, about every 2 minutes, until iTunes hangs.
Originally, I'd set up these phones to sync over WiFi. After switching this off – only for the devices on iOS 7 – the above errors stop ocurring. Again, this doesn't happen with iOS 6 devices.
Running a Mac mini with Mac OS X 10.7.5.
Any ideas beyond switching off WiFi syncing – which is really inconvenient...

Thank you very much!

ITunes library not syncing on iPhone4 with iOS 7.0.4

Since the update to iOS 7.0.4, iTunes on my iPhone4 will not sync. It says it's syncing (I've tried syncing both wirelessly and with USB cable) but nothing changes. I've tried making a new playlist and moving songs, toggling things off and on, rebooting my MacBook Air, rebooting iTunes, and rebooting the phone, but it's not syncing. My iPad music library is syncing just fine since the iOS update so this seems to be a problem with the iPhone4.

I have this EXACT same problem and have since the latest IOS upgrade last week. No changes to the iTunes Library on a Windows 7 PC are syncing to the iPhone 4.
I've been able to get added songs to sync by UnChecking " Sync Music" in the Music tab, then hit Sync. That will wipe out the music on the iPhone. THEN , recheck the Sync Music and Sync again.
HOWEVER
The Sync is ignoring what has been "checked" in the iTunes library on the PC. It will only Sync what has been selected in the Sync options when the iPhone has been connected and the sync function launched.
Apple ??? Are you listening ???

Sync .m4b playlist with iOS 7

I think this is yet another issue with iOS 7s handling of audiobooks but... On my iPod 4th gen I can sync the audiobook playlists (.m4b files NOT .mp3) but they don't sync with my 5th generation iPod. I make the playlists for books with multiple novels (like a trilogy) so they will play one after another so if I'm driving when one ends the next will start automatically... So anyone know? Is this just another poor change (like the lack of chapter-lists) to iOS 7 or is there a work-around I haven't yet found? Will manual syncing allow me to do this? (I doubt it but...) . This is on a Windows machine, iTunes 11.3 BTW, but I don't think that matters..
Thanks!

In iTunes on computer try changing the Media Kind (iTunes>Click on Get Info for the item>Option. It should them move to your Music library

I can only sync my shuffle with auto-sync

If I try the manual sync, the itunes shows me an error message
I tried everything in this forum
what can i do?
I have a 30 gb ipod and everithing is OK, my brother has a new shuffle 2nd G and here is the problem

So? What was the solution?

Is there a way to re-sync an iPad with a computer after the computer was rebuilt?

iTunes wants to wipe the device after I had to rebuild a laptop that was infected by a virus. Unfortunately, the virus may have affected iTunes as well so I had to reinstall it. I did log into my Apple ID Account and deauthorized all computers it was using and then reauthorized it but that didn't help.

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

Address Book Server will not sync all fields with iOS client

Hello,
I am getting really frustrated with my Mac Mini Server.
Apparently, the Address Book Server DOES NOT sync all fields.
Only standard vCard-fields seem to synced.
I have not successfully synced user-defined fields, such as an additional date.
Any ideas / infos on how to achieve this if this possible at all?
Thanks for the input,
Erasmus
One thing: I posted the same question in the "Lion" (non-server) discussion - sorry for any confusion.
One thing I noticed:
All changes made on the server in the OS X Address Book are distributed to two iOS clients (iPod 4th Gen iOS4 iPhone 3GS iOS 4).
Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for answering myself...
I just found out that after editing the newly distributed entry on an iOS4-Client, some fields on the server are deleted!

Can't get WiFi sync to work with iOS 5 devices

I have an iPad 1 and an iPhone 3GS, both running iOS 5. I can't get either device to synch to my iTunes library wirelessly. I have seen the procedures in the KB, but the part that I am missing is that neither device has the "Sync with this iOS device over WiFi" option in the device summary in iTunes, even though I am running iTunes 10.5. Is this because I am running OS X 10.5?

Oops, she rebooted and problem solved.

ITunes wifi sync not working with iOS 7.1

After upating my (2) iPads and iPhone to iOS 7.1 none of these devices will sync with iTunes version 11.1.5 via wi-fi. Is there a fix for this?

It continues to be UNREAL how Apple will release iOS software without testing it. Yep. They BROKE WIFI SYNC. It no longer works on my iPhones or iPads either. UNREAL!!!!!!
