Apple tv 2.2 wont sync sub-folders of photos

Since I've updated the atv to 2.2, my photos that are organized into sub-folders within a folder won't sync.
i like to keep my photos out of iPhoto, nicely organized into one Photos folder with one subfolder for each album. Till 2.1, i could goto iTunes -> Apple TV -> Photos tab, select the main Photos folder there and all the subfolders containing photos would show up. I could select all and the subfolders would sync to Apple TV. With 2.2 , this doesn't happen. I have all the options in iTunes but when i sync, it just shows Syncing and nothing happens. If i select one of the subfolders directly that contains photos, it syncs. That means 2.2 won't sync from sub-folders!! for me, it renders the device useless !
Is there a way to revert back to 2.1 ?

I am also having the same problem. My original Apple TV was version 1. The earlier version of this ATV and Itunes was able to sync photos in nested or sub folders direct from the hard drive and not using any photo program. I upgraded to 2.2 and kept the old files on my ATV and did not sync to Itunes for a long time but when I decided to sync all of my nested photo folders on the ATV were deleted and I could not re sync. I spoke to apple care support today and was advised the programming was not set up to read from sub folders. However Itunes and the apple TV directions say otherwise. I suggested to Apple they consider fixing the programming to follow what Itunes and the ATV manuals say. This is a very desired feature to have.

  • Importing existing folders and sub folders of photos into photoshop organiser 9

    I have over 10,000 photos nicely organised in folders and sub folders in Bridge CS3 and want to migrate over to photoshop elements and use their organiser so I have everything in one place. However, when I try to import the photos, it brings them in as individual photos and not in their folders. It seems like I need to recreate a load of albums and then drag and drop the photos into them. I don't have time to recreate hundreds of album names to replicate my system as it is. Is there any way round this or should I be looking at a different system altogether?
    Thank you for any advice on this.

    ... should I be looking at a different system altogether?
    If your entire organizational goals are to continue to use your "nicely organised" folders, then why bother with the PSE Organizer in the first place? You have extra work (must import the photos) and more limitations (must do all photo management inside of the PSE Organizer), and its hard to see any benefit from using the PSE Organizer. You won't achieve any "better organization" than what you have now.
    If your goals are to use PSE tools to organize (tags, captions notes), in addition to (or as a replacement for) your folder organization, then the PSE Organizer can be very useful.

  • HT201263 my iphone 4 is unresponsive apple logo blinking and wont sync in itunes

    is there a way to restore phone without loosing my contact, text messages, emal, camera roll pictures and videos?

    Place the device in DFU mode (google it) then restore.
    At this point, there is no way to recover anything, the device must be restored.  If the device has been synced and backed up regularly the data loss will be minimal.

  • Using sub folders with photos

    I found my own mistake. I was syncing with a previous lib. that did not have the albums. Oh well...

  • Unable to open TV shows folders or sub folders on photo on my IMac

    My 4 year old was clicking random things and pressing random keys on my IMAC and now when we try to open photo albums or in Itunes, attempt to open TV shows to browse individual shows, it refuses to allow us to click. Is there a setting or something he enabled that prevents us from accessing the photos or TV shows?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see if it'll play in Quicktime on the PC, although the file did play (very choppily) on her (pretty ancient) Mac, so my problem probably wasn't just a matter of corruption.
    My sister ended up buying the entire series of the show on DVD and watching that, so I'd mostly stopped worrying about the problem. And it was also happening for me with iTunes 7.0 for Windows, not iTunes 7.0.1, so my problems may have been fixed with the update. I guess for the sake of thoroughness I should try adding it again in 7.0.1.

  • Syncing Photos Loses Sub-Folders

    I am becoming very frustrated with Apple. I have been trying for some time to sync photos on my PC to my iPad3.  Regardless of what I try, the iPad ends up with the photos in sub-folders  being bundled up in the first level folders.  For example: if I have 24 folders, each with sub-folders holding photos, I end up with 24 folders holding all of my 6600 photos, with no sub-folders.  Where is the logic in this??
    To date I have bought 3 third-party apps which claim to be able to help, but they are either useless or make it difficult to view photos in a sensible way.

    That is how the Photos app currently works, it doesn't support sub-folders/albums, it only works to the one level - any photos that you have in sub-folders will be synced over to the parent folder's album. You can try leaving feedback for Apple via this page and maybe in a future iOS update it will change : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Pages cannot create Sub- folders!

    Boy! Ami disappointed! Apple's Pages software cannot support Sub-folders! I wanted to use ipa for everything and now I realize I cannot. I wanted to create a folder for Recipes with sub folders for desserts entrees etc. but since Pages does not support the sub folder I guess I will have to go back to my PC and Word! Anyone else had this dilemma ? That's a bad oversize by the software fols!

    Can't be done.

  • Synching Exchange email Sub-Folders on iphone 3G

    There are many posts in this and other forums regarding the inability to synch email located in sub-folders on the iPhone in the Exchange environment. I believe I have found a solution, though I am not an IT expert or even close to it. Here's what I did:
    1. On the iphone, tap Settings.
    2. Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    3. Tap on your Exchange mail account (i.e. [email protected]).
    4. Set Mail days to Sync to No Limit.
    5. Exit Settings
    6. In your Outlook, drag and drop all your sub-folders to Inbox. I did this one major sub-folder at a time because I have about 4 GB of email, but perhaps it would work just as well if you did it all at once.
    7. Once the sub-folders have been moved to your Inbox in Outlook, wait a couple of minutes and then tap the Mail program on the iphone.
    8. Click the circular arrow icon in the bottom left corner of the touch screen. Keep tapping until you see all your sub-folders.
    DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK as I have no idea if this causes any problems - it hasn't for me, but then again I know nothing about technology. If anyone has solutions for cutting and pasting or synching notes please let me know.
    Good luck.

    So one downside to this is mailbox storage limits. Most companies have hard limits on how much you can put in your inbox... that is why people have folders for stuff outside of the inbox.
    But the real issue regarding syncing sub-folders is that they don't sync unless you move into them on the iPhone. So if you have rules that move your mail to subfolders (when they are in the inbox), then going into your folders list in the iPhone will NOT show you that sub-folder "contracts" has new email. You have to open the subfolder on the iPhone.
    Sent messages works the same way. The iPhone's sent message folder will not contain the stuff you sent from your desktop until you go into the sent messages folder; this starts the sync of that folder.

  • Viewing Exchange Sub Folders on Iphone 5s

    I am using Iphone 5s, and have just switched over to Microsoft 365 exchange for email.
    The problem I am describing first occurred whilst I was using iOs 7, but I have since installed iOs 8 to see if the problem goes away - but it hasn't.
    My emails are syncing ok, but for some reason I am only able to view some of the sub-folders that I have set up on my laptop (using Microsoft Outlook).
    I have tried deleting, turning off and re-installing the email account on the Iphone, but that still doesn't work.
    I have tried searching for the "mail folders to push" option in mails / contacts / calendars - where it no longer appears (it used to sit under "mail days to sync".
    Under Mail, Contacts, Calendars I have gone into Fetch New Data, selected Push, and then gone into exchange account and selected folders to push.
    The problem is not all the folders that should be there are appearing in the first place - so I can't select them to push.
    How do I get these folders to appear?
    Thanks

  • IPhone email sub folders do not sync with Push feature

    Greetings all,
    I have been working with the iPhone for a while with one of my tasks being to the iPhone Sync Push technology to work well for us.
    Unfortunately it only partially works. It will on push to the root of the INBOX and any other sub folders below the INBOX never get pushed to. The only way to get an idea of if there are new email messages in the sub folders is to individually open each on and wait for it to sync. This is not cool at all.
    Am I missing something here? I mean if I have rules running on the server to organize my email messages and the mail server and clients know about the new messages, why does the iPhone ignore them.
    I have tried the iPhone with Exchange 2003 and with Kerio 6.6 and get no luck with either. I have lots of other phones connected to both and they sync perfectly, so I am lead to believe that the problem is with Apple.
    I thought this phone was supposed to be Enterprise ready?
    Am I doing something wrong here?
    I heard somewhere that Apple only supports push to the INBOX. If that is true, when will Apple fix it so the phone can be used in the Enterprise?
    If anyone has any thoughts on this or if this is working to actually push to sub folders inside of the INBOX with notification of new email without having to open the mail app, I would like to know.
    Thanks for listening.
    Rick

    To all,
    After reading your posts, i can definitly relate to the frustration of using the iphone in an enterprise environment. i have to agree that the Blackberry functionality compared to the iphones is day and night. meaning, the blackberry has always geared itself towards corporate america. where in the iphone's case, it's a device made to look pretty and have some positive enterprise add-ons. however, it still remains a "consumer" mobile device.
    After upgrading the iphone os, i saw that they have addressed the issue with "sub-folder sync". for many of us, that recieve tons of emails a day, its a given that we need to stay organized, otherwise there would be email chaos.
    here is the steps to set auto push to your sub-folders...
    1. Settings
    2. Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    3. Click on your corp mail account.
    4. Click "Mail folders to push"
    at this point you can choose the folders that are currently setup in exchange.
    there is still a minor bug to this fix, even though you will be notify via chime of a new email in your folder, there wont be an indicator on the email icon on the main page indicating a 1 or 2 or 3 emails you might have. Once you are in the email account and see your folder structure, there will be a number indicating new emails.
    final thoughts... they are getting there. im really hoping the new 3gs address all the issues relating to enterprise environment.

  • I am a new Apple/ipad user and trying to sync photos from pc to ipad. Picture moved to ipad in one giant  folder instead of the many specific folders that are on my pc. How do I sync multipule folders so that the photos show up in seperate folders on my

    I am a new apple/ipad user and trying to transfer photos to my new ipad2 from my windows pc using itunes. The pictures all transfered to my ipad in one very large folder (My Pictures) on the ipad2 instead of the multipule folders that were on my pc. Do I have to re sort all of them into folders on the ipad2 or is it possible to sync the seperate folders to the ipad2?

    Create main folder e.g. Folder A, then sub-folders inside A e.g. B, C, D and have your Photos in B, C, D.
    In iTunes Sync, click your device on the left Pane, then on right pane select "Photo" tab.
    Make sure Sync photo box is checked, then select folder A, then All folders box within the selection.
    Click Apply or Sync button at the lower right window.
    you will have B,C,D folders under Albums.

  • Syncing photos with sub folders

    Hi
    Is there any way to sync my photo exactly like them on my pc?
    i have a photo folder and many sub folders , each sub folder contains more sub folders
    and on my iphone my sub folders merge and they all displayed in one folder

    I also have the same problem.
    With itunes on windows and an Iphone 3g, I can only sync the first level, so all subdirectory folders appear in the top one.
    This means that for example my holidays snaps are all together, which is a real pain to find anything.
    I know that using a Mac with iphoto I can do this, but I dont have a Mac.
    I have also tried using Photoshop elements 7 and 8 but it only allows the transfer of everything (obviously I want to sync just the ones I want - to save space).
    A faq I found said that photoshop elements and album work, but only a very early release of these. Otherwise you get everything.
    thoughts or suggestions?
    Will apple ever provide iphoto or support a windows tool such as the latest elements 8 or picasa 3.5
    Regards
    Joe
