Does ATV sync updated music and photos like an iPod?

I just successfully synced my new ATV with my entire iTunes and iPhoto events libraries. It took an entire day to sync it through wireless (couldn't find my ethernet cables). Since this initial sync I have taken more pictures and wanted to sync them over to the ATV. Made the mistake of going to the photo tab and checking the sync last import box. I was worried that if I tried to sync all events again that it would take all day. So of course it erased all my other photos and now I have my lone most recent event on the ATV.
My question is--does the ATV sync updates the same way an iPod or iPhone syncs--in other words will it recognize what is already there and just sync new songs or photos? It doesn't seem as seamless as the other devices since it took several trials and failures to get all the tunes and pics to the ATV first time around. Do I just continue to have it sync all events when I want to update new songs and photos. Thanks for any info...

As long as you are putting the new photos in the same folder (or a sub-folder in that folder) that you have already synced, it will only add the new photos on the next sync. If you change the folder in the "Sync photos from" box, it will erase those synced from the previous folder. This is the same as with an iPod.

  • My old computer is broken, so how do i get my music and photos from my iPod onto my new computer

    my old computer is broken, so how do i get my music and photos from my iPod onto iTunes on my new computer. It says it can only be synced to 1. but my old 1 is broken.

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    Keep in mind that the recovered photos will not be in their full resolution, but instead will be the scaled down versions that were optimized in size and resolution to fit your iPod's smaller LCD screen.

  • HT1473 i accidently deleted itunes from my pc!  i still have all my music and photos on my ipod nano so is it possible to transfer from my nano back to my pc?

    i accidently deleted itunes on my pc!!!  i still have all my music and photos on my ipod nano 6th gen,,,is it possible to transfer content from my nano back onto my pc???

    No, unless the songs were purchased from iTunes. In that case, you Transfer Purchases to computer iTunes.
    Otherwise, what you need is a 3rd party tool:

  • I pad will not sync all music and photos

    My I pad 2 went into recovery mode after trying to do a software update. Now when I try to put in music and photos it will only put in a little bit of what I have. I tried both methods of syncing and the same results occur. Selected all folders, and selected individual folders, but nothing works.

    I'm in the same age bracket and would never give up! I learn new things every day.
    Here is a support article that covers a whole host of things for Windows users to try. One of the most common things that you can try first is to disable your antivirus software and firewall and see if that helps. Restart your PC and the iPad, check for driver updates, etc. All of this is covered in the article and the links in the article.

    This is how you restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Sync Music and Photos to two iPods

    Can I sync two ipods to my itunes music library and iphoto albums on a Mac?
    I know I can have separate libraries for both apps which can be selected at startup but my wife and I share a PC and all our music and photos are on it. I want one subset on my ipod and she another subset. Is there any way to do this?

    Sure, simply plug in each iPod (not at the same time) and configure it for however you want it to sync. Plug in the next one and do the same. iTunes keeps track of different iPod and will remember each one so that it can sync them completely differently from one another if you like.

  • My kids ipod nano 5th gen does not sync to music and gets error 13019 message.  So far done all the suggestions - and now it has NO music.  It seems to download all the music and then error after the last song.

    Kids ipod gets the 13019 error after trying to sync.  I have done all the suggestions online and now it has no music and will not sync.
    It seems to download all the music and on the last song clicks out and says unknown error. 
    any other suggestions?
    Kid is mad now there is NO music on the ipod.  At least before it had the old music and just would not download new songs.
    All worked on our iphones, and other ipods.  Just hers is wacked.
    thanks

    I've encountered the same problem as this recently, but unfortunately i haven't worked out how to fix it yet.
    I tried to fit too many songs on my ipod nano from itunes, and it told me it would create a selection of these (titled my songs) and put them on the nano, which it did. I then went back onto itunes to delete some songs so that they would all fit on the nano. I also deleted the "my songs" playlist, knowing that all the songs were still stored under Music on itunes. When i tried to sync the nano it said that it couldn't be synced as the required disk cannot be found.
    HELP, PLEASE!

  • Syncing itunes music and photos .

    Hi all!! Can anyone help? I am  unable to sync music from itunes or photo's. I can however sync contacts and calendar. At first there was a message saying memory card not installed, I have resolved this by enabling the mass storage device option. Now since having enabled this option once the BB is connected and recognised by finder and the icon is on the desktop approx. 2 sec later the icon drops off and finder is giving me a message that the device was disconnected incorrectly( but i didn't disconnect it ). i am also getting a notice on the device that the memory card has an error. I have formatted the card many times now but again as soon as i try to sync the same happens again.

    Owwwww! .78 -- I don't think any carriers are is still on that. See this for the latest that we know of for various carriers. It may be that first you should go through the update to your carriers current version of device OS...

    I had a similar issue and I was told that my iTunes match was on.
    I had to disable iTunes match on my iPhone.
    Following which - after you plugged in your iPhone to iTunes, select your iPhone on iTunes menu. You should see a summary page of your iPhone where it provides options to update or restore. On the bottom there should be an option to select "sync only selected music/playlists". I can't remember the exact wording. Once that's been checked, select your iPhone's music tab and it should allow you to select the music playlists you want to sync.

    If you manually manage the device the you can remove the content from the PC after you have put it on the device. However this isn't the recommended way. At some point you'll probably need to restore it which involves wiping all the data. If you don't have all this data to hand then you'll have to try to recover it from a now problematic device first. It's much easier to sync with your library - yes you have two copies, but that's not a waste, it is prudent. As long as you have two copies you can afford to lose one knowing you have a backup. In practice I keep a complete backup of my library, in addition to the subsets of it that I can put on my devices.

  • How do I sync my ipad to a used laptop without losing all my apps, music and photos stored on my ipad?

    I have had my Ipad 2 for a few years and have stored all my music and photos on it. I recently was given my dad's laptop and would like to use it to store my photos and music now.  How do I sync my Ipad to the laptop without losing all my stuff?

    Hello kactfl
    The first thing is in iTunes; make sure to check the box in Preferences that prevents syncing devices automatically. Then check out the 2nd article, it will get all of your purchased content like apps and music into iTunes. And then the last article will assist with getting the pictures off the iPad onto the computer.

  • Iphone syncs music and photos, not calendars and contacts

    I have had my Iphone since last July, and have had virtually no issues with it. However, since the last security update, I have been unable to successfully sync my iphone to my powerbook. The phone is properly recognized, and I can initiate a sync, but the sync seems to get stuck synchronizing contacts. Nothing freezes - the computer and phone are still operational- it just seems that the sync doesn't ever end. I even let it run overnight, without success. The same thing occurs if avoid syncing contacts, and start with syncing calendars. However, if I don't sync calendars or contacts, music and photos sync properly, and the sync completes itself.
    I tried restarting the iphone and re-installing itunes, without success.
    Please let me know if anyone out there has any ideas.

  • I found an old iPod classic of mine.  It's not synced to my new MacBook Pro.  How can I get the music and photos off of it and on to my new computer?  When I plug it in to my new computer it wants to erase what is on it and transfer from my new computer.

    I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone.  I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer.  Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer.  I don't want to do that.  I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes.  Any help?  Thanks!
