Cannot Sync iPhoto Subscriptions to Apple TV - why?

Hello
I have subscribed to few other people's .Mac Galleries where the photos now appear in my iPhoto gallery under Subscriptions. They automatically update when they add new photos or make changes.
However they don't appear to be syncing to my Apple TV. They are showing as available to sync in iTunes as an available albumn to sync and am able to move the subscribed albums to the top of the list.
They are not showing up on the Apple TV. Surly if it was not possible they would not appear in iTunes under the photo tab of the Apple TV. I know there is an update coming soon, but I want these photos to appear in this way rather than going to .Mac menu on the updated version etc.
Has anyone else been able to do this? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance

But this 'appears' to be possible well before the AppleTV Take 2 update was announced.
If this is the case, then why does it appear as an available album in iTunes as available to sync? There is no error that appears. This is to view select albums from galleries, not the whole lot.
I am aware of what the Take2 will bring re .Mac, but think this is different to the update that will be appearing soon.
Perhaps you may wish to try this, subscribe to a .Mac gallery (just one album) this will bring it to your iPhoto library, and then check in itunes for albums to sync and it will appear, but not on AppleTV...

ITunes cannot sync iPhotos to the Apple TV

An hour ago, my iMac had no problem syncing my photos from iPhoto to my TV. Now I just got this error message: "iTunes cannot sync iPhotos to the Apple TV 'Apple TV' because your iPhoto Library could not be found. Open iPhoto to create or update your iPhoto Library." I have not opened or done anything to iPhoto in between when my Apple TV could and could not sync my photos.
Yes, opening iPhoto will fix the problem, but just temporarily. This problem has been occurring intermittently for a few weeks. Prior to that, my photos synched to my Apple TV without a problem.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Cannot Sync iphoto with my apple tv

Under the photo tab I checked the box to sync photos from iPhoto but none of the albums appear in the box, and I cannot select the option for "selected albums. I took all the movie clips out of my iPhoto library and rebuilt the library but still no luck.

Are you able to see your iphoto library from other iapps (ie imovie or iDVD)
Are your permissions set correctly for your iphoto library
Where is your iphoto library.

Since uninstalling / reinstalling iTunes I am not able to sync iPhotos with my Apple TV with the following warning message stating that this is due to a 'problem on your computer. The disk could not be read from or written to'. Please help!

Cannot Sync Rented Movies to Apple TV

I cannot sync rented movies to my Apple TV. I contacted Apple Support and they told me to update my Apple TV software (done), update my iTunes software (done) and reauthorize my computer (done). But it still won't work. It gives me the option to "move" the movie and it starts the syncing process but never finishes the process and never gives any type of error message as to why it does not complete the move. It just moves the movie back to the other side of the "move" screen. I have no problem syncing tv shows to my Apple TV. The Apple rep's response was that he recommended that I not purchase anymore rental movies. Isn't there something else I could try to fix it? Has anyone else encountered this? Thank you very much.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT purchase rental movies in I-Tunes if you want to watch them on Apple TV. I rented "Batman Begins" in I-Tunes and Apple TV says it is "not authorized" to play it. I rented the "Darjeeling Trials", and Apple TV played the first few minutes - but when I paused it and came back to it, it said "this movie has expired" and even deleted the rental from I-Tunes for me - niiiice.
My Apple TV is brand new, latest model, 160GB, latest latest software (downloaded today) and I also have the latest lates (7.1.1) I-Tunes software. IF you download thru I-Tunes, RENTALS DO NOT WORK with this software.
Download direct to Apple TV instead (at least that works... )

Cannot sync iPhoto library to iPhone

When I plug my iPhone 4 into my Mac to sync, iTunes does not appear to detect my iPhoto library. Activating the "Sync Photos from 'iPhoto'" option does not allow me to select individual albums, faces, etc. to sync. Attempting to sync result in the error "iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone 'Kyle Cunanan's iPhone' because your iPhoto Library could not be found. Open iPhoto to create or update your iPhoto Library." Opening iPhoto shows no problems. All my photos are still there, just as I've left them.

Do matters improve if you update to iPhoto 9.4.1?
iPhoto 9.4.1
From the release notes for the new version:
What's New in Version 9.4.1

Cannot sync iphoto folders after upgrading to mavericks. syncing caused removal of all photo folders from iPhone

After upgrading 17" macbook pro/late 2009 to mavericks - runs slow and having syncing issues. syncs freeze then quit. folders were removed from devices without my setting that up. will not add. all devices are NOT on OS7. Is this why??

You and me both! I thought my error (Unknown error (-50) popped up when I thought I'd try out MobileMe, (which, as an aside screwed a LOT of things up). Now I have no idea. I started getting duplicate bookmarks in Safari, and email from all over, and then my photos will no longer sync from iPhoto. I've never had this problem, had my MacBook Pro for three years, my iMac almost a year, iPhone for 2+. APPLE!!! ARE YOU LISTENING??????

Cannot sync iphotos or itunes with new iphone

I have just purchased a new iphone, which I have synced with my MacBook Pro using itunes. I have also authorised the computer from the 'Store' drop down menu.
After connecting the iphone with the provided usb and dock I have successfully synced all my contacts, calendar, bookmarks and mail accounts but when i try and sync the iphotos and itunes it fails with the message 'The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation'.
As I have more than 14gb free and the iphoto folder I am trying to import is very small I don't understand the problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Carl

ok finished verifying and repairing disk permissions with Disk Utility but I still get the same message.
with regards to the permissions setting via finder, I'm not sure what i need to check but there's nothing obviously wrong. It's currently set to read & write
I restored the factory settings and still it failed to load iphotos and I still get the same message. Within ITunes should it list photos under the DEVICES list as it currently shows Music, Movies, TV Shows & Ringtones.
On the plus side however, I have managed to load itunes now. Not sure why I can't seem to do the same with iphotos?

Syncing iPhoto slideshows to Apple TV

I've built my slideshow in iPhoto and linked it to a music track. When I sync to my Apple TV, the slideshow is there but the music track and all the settings are gone. Anyway of fixing this?

You camera shoots 1920x1080 video. An Apple TV supports 1280 by 720 pixels at 24 fps and 960 by 540 pixels at 30 fps.
Your 1920x1080 video needs to be converted to 960x540 for use on your Apple TV.

Syncing iPhoto on multiple Apple computers

I have three Macs. Two have the previous iPhoto version to iPhoto '09. At the moment, to add new pics, I add them to my Pro with iPhoto '09. Then I transfer them to my iMac and Mac Mini using the cloud in Mobile Me. I've gotten to the point where I have so many new pics that it is overwhelming just trying to keep up.
I would like to know the easiest way to keep my two older Apples in sync with my Pro, which has iPhoto '09. First, is it necessary to install '09 on the other two? Second, what is the easiest way to sync these libraries?
I do have a network using Airport Expresses for my three computers.

First off: yes, there is no way to share the pics without everything being the same version - so yes, you'll need to upgrade them all to the same version.
What do you mean by "Sync".
The general term means when two Libraries (A and B) are compared and files in Library A are copied to Library B, while files in Library B are also copied to Library A so that both Libraries are identical.
This is bi-directional copying and you cannot do this with automatically with iPhoto. No Syncing software is capable of parsing the iPhoto Library in this manner. One or both of your Libraries will be damaged if you try this.
You can have uni-directional copying - files in Library A are copied to Library B - this is essentially backing up. Obviously you can also copy from Library B to Library A.
If you can decide to only import pics to Library, then it's quite simple to simple to back up that Library to the other machines.
The nearest you can get to syncing is to use iPhoto Library Manager to move files/Albums/Events plus assoicated metadata between Libraries. This process cannot be automated.

Cannot sync iPhoto to iPhone 6 on iTunes

Hardware
MacBook Pro (17 inch, mid 2009) Processor: 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3. Storage: 500GB.
iPhone 6 Plus: 64GB. Bought 1 week ago.
iPhoto latest version.
Software
OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
I have over 43,000 photos in my iPhoto and I bought a new iPhone 6 Plus so I am trying to sync specific events and albums back to the iPhone. The issue is that with 43,000 photos, iTunes just has a grey loading spiral going round and round in circles so it will not let me choose the normal menu which allows you to sync automatically or manually sync photos. It has been doing this for a day. I thought it might eventually pull itself together but, alas, not.
Help?
Is there a way to fix this or another app which allows me to sync the albums, event etc?

Hi Kproch,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature and scope of the issue you are describing. If you are having issues syncing or importing photos from your iPhone 6 to your iMac running Yosemite, you may find the steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

New MacBook Pro cannot sync with 1st gen Apple TV

Hello,
just bought a new MacBook Pro and have linked it to my 1st generation Apple TV (160GB) but it will not sync.
I keep getting this error message (something about firewall blocking port 3689) but I don't have the firewall on. The support on the apple website doesn't really offer any other resolutions apart from changing the firewall to allow the connection but mine is already deactivated anyway.
Help !

Same problem here. Update hasn't helped. Both iPhone and iPad quite happily continue to remote control AppleTV. iTunes even allows airstreaming to the AppleTV. However it NEVER appears as a device in iTunes, whether or not I use the iPhone/iPad plugged in trick. Nor have recent updates helped.
AppleTV used to work fine with previous macbook from which I transferred all user info etc). I know Apple wants us to think of such devices as "stream targets" but I prefer to have the music collection on the AppleTV. Very frustrating waste of time that it doesn't work as it should.

I cannot sync my computer with Apple tv

I only shows Settings and Photos? Does anyone know how I can see Music and Movies?

likely your atv don't have a network connection at all
if you use wifi then you should enter the atv's settings and chose your wifi ssid and put in the correct password and you would be online if you don't use wifi then you need to connect an ethernet cable to yoru router

I cannot open iPhoto after upgrading latest apple updates. Getting a message latest iPhoto version is not available in the US

MacBook pro, 8GB, OSX Yosemite
I cannot open iPhoto after latest apple upgrade. Getting message latest iPhoto version is not available in the US.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
