Can't find file to sync photos - why not?!?

I recently re-organised my photos on my PC & changed the file location for the photos to sync to my iPod. I reconnected the iPod & it went through to organise the photos in a new photo cache as I would expect...but then when it went to actually move the pictures onto the iPod, I get told 'can't find file' and so it does not sync
I can see the pics in the cache, the location of the photos on iTunes is right, but they don't seem to talk to each other & so nothing happens
anyone seen this before or have any suggestions??
thanks
Ian

ok one more question
The file syncing issue now seems to be resolved & the ipod connects to the PC without too much argument now
the only outstanding issue is that I have seom videos within my pictures. Previously these existed within the Pictures folder, but I could still play them
However now this doesn't happen & in the Pictures folder I just get the first frame of the video, without being able to play them. I don't know why suddenly it won't play them
They are all in mp4 format. as most are home videos I wanted to keep them in the Pictures folder rather than move them into the official Videos section
thanks

Can't find files from purchased music and not allowed to redownload

I can't not find the files to a album i donwloaded and they will not allow me to redownload them from my purchased files

We're having the exact same problem. Spotlight run on the server will find files, when run from a Leopard client will find files, but when run from a Tiger client results are empty every time.
I think I read somewhere that Leopard indexes are not backwards compatible, I'm going to turn off Spotlight on the server and delete the indexes - we'll see what happens.

I can't find any of my photos on ICloud, why?

I can't find any of my photos on ICloud, why?

1. Tap the Photos app or the camera icon
2. Tap the camera icon to open it then tap the box bottom left side of the display. That's your camera roll.
iCloud photos are stored in both.
If you do not see any photos, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos the make sure: My Photo Stream is switched ON.
If that doesn't help, make sure you have setup an iCloud account > Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

Have you looked in iPhoto on your Mac under the "Photo Stream" area shown on the left sidebar?

LR can't find some of my photos

LR can't find some of my photos even though their location has not changed. When I tell it to locate the file and I find it, LR tells me that file number is associated with another photo.

I am assuming no changes have been made to alter the image, in that this is an original image that you have not worked on in lightroom before.
Find the file in your OS's file manager,
rename the file
In lightroom resync that folder.
(Note: If you have a bunch of images that you have retouched in LR and did not save the metadata,
place the renamed image in a sub folder to a folder that LR has access to or
in LR select all of the images and hit ctrl-s or
import that renamed image)
That image should now be available.

Upgraded to 6.01 & "can't find file" appears

I upgraded to Ilife 6 and DVD made in V4 open with the message "can't find file". I upgraded to 6.01 and still have this message. How do you fix this problem.
thanks,

teit:
You're getting that message because iDVD uses links to iPhoto's library folder system for the photos in the iDVD project. Since V6 has changed that folder system iDVD has lost it's links and cannot find the files. Unless you only have one or two files to re-link, doing it manually is impossible. iDVD 6.0.1 was supposed to fix that problem but apparently not for you. At this point, you may not be able to recover the project unless you have a backup copy of your V4 library that you can put in the Pictures folder for iDVD to find and use.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied & renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!! I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading to Maverick.

Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new sad and upgraded to Mountain Lion., but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this? Graham

Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new ssd and upgraded to Mountain Lion, but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this? A backup run did not install either photos or songs. Graham

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

I am trying to install itunes 10.5.1 but it can't find file IXP609.TMP where can i get this

i am trying to install itunes 10.5.1 but it can't find file IXP609.TMP so stopping the upgrade. how do i upgrade itunes? I tried uninstalling but it can't find another file 389 so I can neither uninstall nor reinstall. Any thoughts please?

Hi Rick,
by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
Success,
Peter
