Aperture to iPhone Sync

I am trying to sync a few photos from Aperture to my iPhone. However, only 2,800 of the 85,000 photos are available in iTunes during the sync set-up. Any suggestions to make iTunes see all of my photos in Aperture?

I think this has something to do with "previews"..
I used to have them turned on for all projects, and my photos came through to the iPhone.. But as my collection grew (120k 6-8mp photos) the collective size of the previews alone was filling up a good portion of my hard drive. So I turned the generation off (I still get thumbnails in 2 different sizes, but no "previews"). Also went through and deleted all of the already generated previews. No more photos on the iPhone.
I'm really not sure why the ~800x600 (or ~600x400) thumbnail can't be synced with the phone, probably Apple deciding it wasn't necessary and cutting it from the feature list.. Although none of this is really documented that I could find.
So if you want them, turn on previews for a project and see if that brings them back..
p.s. Boo on Apple for making it so hard to turn off preview generation (and deleting of existing previews) across hundreds of projects. I had to do it manually for each project.

Aperture to iPhone sync not working correctly

When sync'ing photo's from Aperture to my iPhone 6+ , I have filters that work perfectly in Aperture, but I still end up with photo's I shouldn't have (should have been filtered out) sent to my iPhone.
is this a known bug?
How do I fix this?
Thanks,
Mark

Ignore what Apple have said about my iPhone. it's a 6+ with iOS8.

Aperture to iPhone sync not working

I am trying to sync photos from Aperture to my iPhone and something is not working. The photos and albums that show up in iTunes when I select the iPhone are old and have been deleted from Aperture. Most of them are sample bird photos that came with Aperture. Those are long gone but they still show up in iTunes and my new albums don't. iPhoto sync works though. Any suggestions on what to try would be appreciated.

If I had this problem, I'd try shaking things up by following instructions to create a new Aperture library, and then checking whether iTunes reflects the projects of the new library. If so, there's a good chance the problem will correct itself when Aperture is instructed to open the main library.
I'd also see if there's an old library on my hard drive (with the demo bird photos) and I would delete that library and check whether iTunes now lists no projects at all.

Can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5

I can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5. It always can sync some photos into 5. Then finish and prompts: "itunes can not synchronize (other)thousands of projects, and see more information in itunes". That means most of my photos can not seen on Iphone 5, it seems just can't import to 5. Is that the problem of Iphone or the pictures in Aperture, or even just because lack of sufficient space?

Aperture isn't syncing to iPhone in chronological order

I just moved from iPhoto 09 to Aperture, and when I synced my iPhone with Aperture for the first time, Aperture isn't syncing to iPhone in chronological order like it did in iPhoto. All my images, albums, etc. are sorted by image date in Aperture, but there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason as to how iTunes/Aperture sync to my iPhone 3G. I'd like to be able to scroll down to my newest photos on the iPhone like I did when I synced with iPhoto 09. Anything I need to do differently? Thanks.

This has been discussed on the iPhone forum. The best way to "fix it" is change the album sort in aperture to custom (drop down menu). This seems to fix it.

Still having Aperture iPhone sync problems

I'm new to Aperture, and have had odd issues when syncing selected Aperture albums through iTunes to my iPhone 3G. Edits do not appear in images on my iPhone - not even simple crops. In order for my photos to consistently appear with edits intact from Aperture is to force Aperture to generate previews almost every time. This is a big hassle to do EVERY time, especially when I have to do it for hundreds of photos at a time!
Also, Aperture isn't syncing to my iPhone 3G in chronological order like it did in iPhoto '09 just a couple weeks ago. All my images, albums, etc. are sorted by image date in Aperture, but there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason as to how iTunes/Aperture sync to my iPhone 3G. I'd like to be able to scroll down to my newest photos on the iPhone like I did when I synced with iPhoto '09.
I like using my iPhone and Apple TV to show photos to clients, and I would like to have them appear in chronological order like they should.
Are these two issues bugs, or is there a fix?
I've reinstalled Aperture, restored my iPhone, repaired permissions on my Mac, and the issues remain.
Thank you.

FaceBook export and iPhone Sync

I have used the FaceBook exporter for iPhoto and the exporter for Aperture. The former works fine the latter hangs. Insofar as it seems to usually manage to send the images, though not always, but the export activity just gets stuck going round and round and I have to cancel in the activity window. I have uninstalled the plug in and installed a newly downloaded version but no success. Am I alone?
Am I alone in using Aperture and iPhoto side by side, each being suited to a particular kind of task (work/leisure etc)? If not, does anyone know a way to be able to sync selected Aperture AND iPhoto images to an iPhone? It is very irksome having to to select certain images in one and move them across to the other, just so I can take the images I want with me on the road.

Hey Kakgungor,
What problem are you having? I have been able to use the Facebook uploader with not too many hiccups except a few recent ones.
1. Sometimes what is uploaded from Aperture is the unrotated, unedited pictures. Also, long version names from Aperture (which stupidly sync as the caption) tend to cause this, in my experience. I had to create new versions from the masters and apply the adjustments again, then upload only went smoothly when I left the version name as-is and edited later.
2. When albums don't load completely to Facebook, often you get "missing" image markers in your Facebook album, even after re-syncing.
3. Tags/Faces don't really sync back & forth that well. I'm still testing this out.
Share with us your problem so we can figure something out and maybe write bug reports to Apple & Facebook & Flickr.

Iphone sync crashes optimizing iphoto

So my iphone sync works fine unless I'm trying to sync it with photos from iphoto. During the optimizing stage, it always crashes. I thought it might be ilife 06 so I upgraded to ilife 08. Nothing changed. It will sync to aperture, but I don't use aperture for all my photos. any ideas?

Having the same issue. My only guess at this point is that it has to do with a 3rd party app. When I (de)synced applications and selected only the last 5 events from iphoto it worked. I am sure there is a good answer out there. Anybody...

Mixes up Aperture Albums between syncs

I'm syncing a few selected albums through Aperture and have noticed that the albums I've selected get somewhat intermittently scrambled between syncs, especially if I've added new albums.
Here's the way it works:
I select a few albums to sync in iTunes from Aperture.
I sync the iPhone
I add more photos or add albums in Aperture.
I create previews for selected albums (I don't use previews for all my photos currently)
When I sync the iPhone again I find one or more albums have been unselected, and on occasion an incorrect album selected for sync instead.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
PowerMac G5 2.3GHz Mac OS X (10.4)

YES! Happens to me when I add albums to Aperture, then re-sync iPhone. It just randomly chooses different albums, Some stick, some don't.

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device?

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device? I can get all the Apps and music from one to the other but why won't the emails I delete off one not delete off the other? Is there anyway where I can make this happen?

As James says, make sure that you are using the IMAP servers for your email. You will need to check the help pages for your email provider to get the correct settings in all your devices. POP really doesn't fit the needs of todays mutiple access, always on internet, so you are better off moving to IMAP.

The title of my initial post is a bit misleading. I already took a chance deleting one of the iPhones, hoping if I deleted the wrong one, I can still reauthorize it (all with the same Apple ID acct, so not subject to 90-day waiting period, right?) The iTunes database just updated itself, and it says I have 4 "devices" "in the Cloud", but 5 "computers" associated w my account. How can I find out what computers are associated? Isn't there a list I can see? I dont have a clue what computers they might be. If I use the "Deauthorize All" option, is it a pain to add them all back in. I assume I would have to log in from each computer to reauthorize each one. Would I have to be running the newest OS or version of iTunes to reauthorize? I think I have a PowerBook G4 Titanium with an older OS and iTunes. I'd like to keep that authorized, if possible.

I want to store my music files on a NAS (which has an iTunes server built in), but I'm not sure how this will affect my iPhone sync. Will I need a local copy of my music on a computer in order to continue to sync?

Hi,
I have an iPhone and I sync playlists to it from iTunes. (I have far in excess of 16GB of music/podcasts.)
What I want to do is permanently share my music library with all devices in the house, so I'm planning on buying a NAS server that has a built-in iTunes server. (I don't want to just use my computer to share and leave it on 24/7 because that is a phenominal waste of power.) That way all networked computers can just load the library under the 'SHARED' option in the left pane. However, this had me wondering about how I will continue to sync my music to my iPhone? I wondered if I will need to maintain a duplicate of the library on one of my computers, and then have my iPhone sync with that. Otherwise I'm not sure how it'll work.
Any help/comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Tom.

Incidentally, my first thought was to map a network share from the NAS to my computer, so that my music files appear on the Z: drive, say on my computer. I could then set up iTunes to store music etc in that folder, and to copy all new items to that folder. However, if I do that, all that'll happen is that on my NAS, the library file will become out of date as I add music to the collection but not to the index.

No. If you connect his phone to your iTunes account/computer, ALL iTunes content on his phone will be erased. By design, iPhone syncs or manually manages iTunes content with ONE computer at a time.
