Can't sync two photo albums

Hi,
I'm trying two sync to photo albums from my Windows 8 PC to my iPhone 6, I have two folders 'Jacob and 'Jacob2'.
I can sync either one perfectly fine but when I come to sync the 2nd folder it replaces the first one I synced.
In short, it's only letting me have one folder on my iPhone. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Your help has been amazing guys, I don't know what I'd do without you all.

Can I sync my photo albums to my PC or just all the photos as one chunk via Photostream?

So I figured out how to sync my Photostream to my PC. However, when it syncs it's just all the photos. Is there anyway to sync the structure of my photo albums to the icloud or my PC so I have the organization I have on iphone?

No, PhotoStream was designed to be one long stream of photos.
You might be able to organize photos in your upload folder into folders, but they will not display when viewing PhotoStream.

I can't delete a photo album that was synced on iTunes.

I can't delete a photo album that was synced on iTunes. I deselected all photo albums to sync on iTunes and the albums are still on my iPad. I did a search for this issue and a suggestion was loading some other software onto my PC to delete them. I'm not sure I want to do that. The album is stuck on my iPad and iPad Mini.

Are these folders that are no longer on the computer? I see you unchecked the albums, but the sync did not change things. Try this:
In the folder where you have your pictures, create a new folder and leave it empty. Deselect all folders to sync except that one. It should remove everything else from the phone except that one folder, and since it is empty, there should be no photos left except the Camera Roll. Then you can Deselect that empty folder and sync and you should no longer have any photos synced to the device.

Why apple doesn't allow the users just to add more photos from our pcs instead of requiring us to re-sync the existing albums? I can't sync additional photos cause I have my pc reformatted. =( is there any other way to add these photos? please help me.

Apple has not saidwhy they did it that way and it is against the terms of this forum to speculate on the reasons. It says not to:
"Discussions of Apple policies or procedures or speculation on Apple decisions."
The are third-party programs like TouchCopy that I think will allow you to do what you want. You can import photos via DropBox. The third-party programs will I know allow you to transfer the photos to your "new" computer.

I had created two photo albums on my ipad, by transferring photos from my hp laptop. I want to make space available on my ipad by deleting these photos, but the same hp laptop is no more with me. How do I delete these photos?

1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera. You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything.

Sync multiple Photo Albums

Hi... I can't seem to sync multiple photo albums. If I try to add more it just over rides the previous one--- I can only have one at a time. I don't have either Adobe Photoshop Elements and Adobe Photoshop Album on my PC. I only have the full Photoshop. Anyone able to help out there.... ?

Hi,
I'm also having the same problem and as a keen photo hobbyist, I have my photo folders arranged by year and within each year folder I have between 20-40 sub folders, with images totaling over 80 Gb in size.
With your solution, I'll have to manually create a new folder called iPod Photos and copy the folders I want in iPod into that folder and sync the iPod Photos in iTunes.
This is a crazy solution. I don't want to duplicate another 20Gb or so of images in a separate folder just so I could sync with iTunes. Why can't iTunes sync multiple folders like other 3d party iPod apps can?

I can only download 1 photo album from my computer to the ipad, if I download a second one, it deletes and replaces the first one. How can I fix this?

I can only download one photo album from my PC to the Ipad, if I try to download a second album, it deletes the first. Why???

Put all of your albums into one main photos album that you can sync from. You can only select one main folder of photos to sync to the iPad. If you direct iTunes to sync from a different folder the next time that you sync, the first album/folder will be deleted. You have to include all photos with each sync every time that you sync.
So create one main folder for photos and place all of your sub folders into that main photos folder, then when yo sync with iTunes, you can select that main photos folder as the "Sync Photos From" folder in the iTunes photos tab and you can select each of the subfolders within that main folder to sync as well.
But you can only select one level of subfolders to sync. You cannot sync a folder within a folder within the main folder - one level of sub folders only.
Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Select the main photos folder in the Sync Photos From drop down menu
Click on/select all of the albums or sub folders within that main folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

I can't delete 2 photo albums from my Ipad 2... What am I doing wrong?

I can't delete 2 photo albums from my Ipad 2... What am I doing wrong? I go to the photo app, then albums and 2 show up, I tap edit and nothing happens... I just want to delete these...

How did they get on the iPad ? Only albums created directly on the iPad can be deleted via the Edit button.
Albums/photos that were synced from your computer can't be deleted directly in the Photos app - you either need to move/remove/de-select them from where they were synced from on your computer and re-sync, or you might be able to delete all synced photos/albums by swiping across the 'Photo Library' line in Settings > General > Usage > Photos & Camera (that should give you a Delete button, but I haven't tried tapping it to see if it works).

Since the update, I can't access my photo albums, suggestions ? Also when I get reminders, they come in 2's . Frustrating.

Also when I get reminders, they come in 2's . Frustrating ... It maybe that iCloud thing....Help!!!

I think I figured out the reminder thing.... I had it checked at the sync page... said it wasn't necessary so I un checked it..... now to figure out how to access my photo albums from my phone and I'll be happy....

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?

The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing. Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
More things you can do:
With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not. You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing. As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos. I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special. Any way - search around to find answers.
