Cannot synch photos

I cannot synch photos in iphoto ('09) with itouch 4G using itunes 10.6.3. Lion OSX.
In the device, I go to the photos tab and select the albums to be transfered. Synch photos from iphoto is checked. Selected albums radio button is chosen.
I get the option to apply and/or synch and by selecting them neither of them will transfer the chosen photos.
Any suggestions would be sppreciated.

IPhone Cannot Synch Photos from iPhoto

Hello,
I have my iPhoto (and iTunes) library on an external harddrive that I connect wirelessly to thru my new airport extreme. I use my MacBook Pro to synch my iPhone. My iTunes videos and music synch great, but when I select the photo albums I want to load onto the phone, iTunes "thinks" for about 45 seconds, and then gives me the warning,
"The iPhone 'Ryan's iPhone' cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found."
Is this a problem with the iPhone? I have loaded photos in the same way from my MacBook onto my iPod and it worked fine... Is this due to the fact that I am connecting to my photo library via a wireless connection?
Any advice would be much appreciated!

I am synching photos from Aperture. The photos are on an external hard drive but it is connected to my computer (G5) via firewire not wireless. iPhoto worked as well but most of my photos are accessible via Aperture.

Cannot copy photos from camera roll to a synch folder

I cannot copy any photo stored in Camera Roll to folder that synch's with my PC. > "PC Synch Folder"<    I am using iphone 4s and iPad 3.   Happens to both iDevices.
On the iDevice the "PC Synch Folder" is greyed out when trying to do a copy.   In fact, I cannot even delete that folder from either iDevices.
For what it's worth, I can create a new folder on either iDevice and copy from Camera Roll to it. Fine. But that folder will not talk to the folder that I want to synch with my PC. Strange?
The folder "PC Synch Folder" will indeed sych any picture I put in there from the PC side.   However, what is in there, does not show up in Camera Roll. What I have in Camera roll cannot be transferred into the "PC Synch Folder"   It's like there is a wall between the folders.
Hence the problem is ... pictures taken on either iDevices cannot be transferred back to my PC!   I don't want this !
This seems most odd. Have I done something dumb and simple?

I use Picasa. You don't have to use iTunes at all. Connect the phone with the USB cable and launch the app of your choice, such as Picasa. Click the "Import" button at the upper left. Your iPhone should appear in the dropdown of choices to import from. You can then import all or some of the photos in the Camera Roll. You should be able to do the same thing with Microsoft Picture Manager or any other photo management program.
The reason that Elements is the only choice is that's the only one that iPhoto on the phone recognizes albums in.
You cannot move photos INTO the Camera Roll from your computer; it's a one-way transfer. But you can sync photos to the Photos app on the iPhone. You either use Elements, or just create a folder on your computer for photos to sync, then create a sub-folder for each album you want on your computer. Copy the photos to each album, then go to the Photos tab in iTunes and select the top-level folder. When you sync each sub-folder will become an album on the iPhone.
However, I consider the photo app on the iPhone rather limited and klunky. Instead I use the app MyPics from the app store. It syncs photos from my Picasa Web albums directly to the phone over the air. I can also create albums in Picasa Web from the phone, and upload images from the Camera Roll directly to Picasa Web.
Another way to get photos (and other files) to and from the phone is Dropbox and similar cloud-based storage solutions.

Downloaded IOS5 to my Ipad and now cannot synch with itunes - I get no messages

I have downloaded IOS5 and the IPad works fine but I cannot synch with itunes and all of my Ipad music, videos and photos are gone. Tough to tell wher I went wrong since I can run wireless synch and it gets to stage 7 but then nothing happens. I hope someone else has encountered and solved this already.

ios 6 requires itunes 10.6.3 or higher which requires Mac OS 10.6.8 or higher

I cannot synch. songs from itunes to ipad 2 (have authorised computer). Also cannot tranfer apps from ipad to Mac despite authorising the computer. Any advice? Thanks.

I cannot synch songs from itunes on my Mac to my ipad 2. It worked the first time, but stripped them off on a subsequent synch and I cannot get it to work again. It synchs apps but not music. Also, despite authorising my computer, synching strips off apps. purchased on the ipad (i.e., it will not transfer them to the Mac). All very mystifying. Any help gratefully received (I have tried everything on the troubleshooting page of the ipad guide).
Many thanks
Chris

Apple devices are designed to only allow you to sync to one itunes library at a time. If you try, it will replace everything on the deivce with the itunes library you are syncing to.
If she has already synced her ipad to another computer, then this is normal behavior.
It would be best to create a library just for her. If you can import/export the music and photos on the computer into her own itunes library.

The reason that content from her ipad is showing up on your iphone is probably due to you both sharing the same apple id and having automatic downloads turned on in the settings.
You can turn this off by going to settings/itunes and app stores/automatic downloads/turn off

ITunes cannot sync photos following Photos upgrade

Since upgrading to 10.10.3 and migrating my iPhoto database to the new Photos.app, iTunes is throwing up an error message:
iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone “[my iphone]” because your iPhoto Library could not be found. Open iPhoto to create or update your iPhoto Library.
My iTunes version is 12.1.2.27 (it updated yesterday) and all the rest of my software is updated to the latest versions.
I have tried rebooting and restarting iTunes and Photos many times.
My iPhone syncs new photos fine to Photos.
There is an option in iTunes to change the iTunes Media folder location, but this only affects music not photos.
Would love some help with this! Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem with my two iPads. Got same error message.. What i discovered is that once you device in connected you can go into setting. You will need to click on photos. At top of screen that opens you photo setting you will then need to click synch photos block. It will then open the lower portion of you photos settings. You can then click on circle to sync all photos or select only the albums you want synced and include videos if you wish. Once you have clicked on all desired setting you will need to click the sync button manually on bottom of that screen next to all you used and free GB space. You will get a pop up window asking if you want to erase all photos on you device. If you feel all your pictures and videos transferred over to the new photo app then you should be fine erasing all the pics on the device and now the new photo settings will sync to your device.. I hope this has been helpful to you. As it worked for me.
Look at it this way you just need to reset all your photos setting because they stopped communicating with you device once the iPhoto transferred you photos to the new photo app.

I reloaded iTunes 10 (64 bit) successfully, but the problem remains the same.
Any suggestions?

I looked in the folder from which I want to synch photos, but there is no such thing as an "ipod photo cache" in that folder, or sub-folders, as suggested in the link which you were nice enough to provide.
I have also tried removing photos from my iPad2 Photos App, and "iTunes has stopped working" shows up again as soon as I click on the "Synch photos from" button.

I cannot email photos from within iPhoto (v. 9.5.1). When I hit send I get a message: "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply." This happens for both my iCloud account and my Shaw account. What to do???

Are you able to email from Mail with those two accounts? If so:
1 - go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete both accounts. Now add them back and try again.
2 - a better solution IMO is to set Mail as the email client for iPhoto is iPhoto's General preference pane. This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy of all emails and, if you want a layout similar to iPhoto's, photo layouts located in Mail's stationary.

I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I attempt to do so, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid." Please help.

I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I try, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid." I am using iPhoto 9 version 8.1.2, and my OS is 10.9.5. My computer is a MacBook Pro. I do not have this trouble with my iMac. This trouble started before I updated to OS10.9.5. I do not have this problem when uploading to FaceBook or sending by e-mail.
This problem started when I tried to upload some photos after hitting the "use other account" tab. This took me to a Flikr site asking me for permission to make my iPhoto information available to others. I clicked "yes," and then I changed my mind and clicked "no." I haven't been able to upload to Flikr since.
I searched Flikr and Yahoo for a solution, and Yahoo says the trouble is in iPhoto. I checked my Flikr account, and iPhoto extensions are enabled.
I need to upload some school and alumni photos, so I sure could use some help. I am Not computer proficient. Thank you.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Cannot delete photos from iPod touch

I cannot delete photos from my ipod touch. There is no delete button. help

Why did Apple program it to function this way?! I synced photos from my computer to my iPod. I threw away my old computer when I bought a Macbook Pro. I want to delete my previously synced photos from my old computer. How can I unsynced the photos now? Can I ask Apple to allow synced photos to be deleted? Can I also ask Apple to allow me to add more photos on my iPod to the album of synced photos?

Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc. Tried all solutions using Itunes and it doesn't delete them from iphone

Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc. Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos. Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start

I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows. Sync is unselected. It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work. It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases). If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

I cannot download photos from my digital camera to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to successfully do this up to 4 days ago but not yesterday. My camera/device is recognized in the Source List but photos won't download for me to import to library.

I cannot download photos from my digital camera (via a cable) to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to do this successfully up til 4 days ago but not yesterday (Dec. 25th). My camera/device is recognized in the Source List, but when it tries to download the photos, all I get are the words "Loading Photos" in the area where the thumbnail pictures usually display. The little "gear" symbol next to the words but it just goes round and round. Nothing ever downloads, and instead of showing me how many pictures there are to import it just says "No photos". So therefore I cannot import the photos to my library since they won't even download.
I was getting an error message a few days ago that my Iphoto library was getting full, so I emptied my trash in both Iphoto and on my computer. I had this same problem back in October and emptying the trash and getting rid of some photos did help (can I really be using that much storage space for the pictures?). But it didn't help this time.
Any suggestions as to what to do to solve the problem? I would try taking the SD card out and inserting that into the slot on the computer to see if I could load pictures that way; but the last time I did that, they wouldn't load. Not sure if I lost pics from the disc or not.
Thank you,

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
Any ideas ?

This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

IPhoto states server did not reply so I cannot email photos from iPhoto

I cannot email photos from iPhoto. I checked the outgoing mail server and port and they are correct. When I try to email photos the message i'm getting is the server did not reply check your internet connection and try later.. but my internet connection is fine. Any suggestions? I have Yosemite 10.10.3 software installed.

Do you have two-step verification enabled and are trying to mail from your iCloud account?
Then check this solution:
If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.
See the post below:
Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
https://appleid.apple.com
Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
Click Password and Security in the left column
Click Generate an app-specific password
Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
And...voila' (I hope)
