Duplicate iPhoto events in iPhone/iPad sync

I'm getting duplicate iPhoto events showing up when I try to sync my iPhone and/or iPad. These events are not in duplicate in iPhoto itself. I have tried repairing the iPhoto database and it's file permissions. I have no idea why iTunes reads these events like so (see included screen shot). Any help would be appreciated; thanks in advance.

Hi!
I also have this problem.
iTunes 10.2.2 (12)
iPhoto 9.1.2 (605)
It seems that iTunes separates the pictures of an event, which was imported at different times.
I left a message on: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
greetings

HT4236 Sync some iPhoto Events to my iPad or iPod

I'm using itunes 11.0.1 and iPhoto 9.2. When i specify to synch a couple of iPhoto events to my ipad or iPod, itunes does sync only some of this events to my mobile device. I already deleted the ipod photo chache, but the results are unfortunatly the same. What goes wrong with my iTunes synchronisation? The SW Version on my ipad 3 is latest Release.
Thanx for your help

Thanks Ralph. The iTunes version is 11.1.5. There was a facility where you could select various "Events" from a table in iPhoto and sync just them to your iPad. Finding that function is my current problem

How Synch iphoto events to iphone via itunes

You're welcome.
Selected iPhoto albums are transferred to your iPhone but not selected iPhoto Events?
If so, try delecting Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. This will remove all photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your Mac.
Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos making your selections below followed by another sync.

IPhone / iPad syncing issues.

What I'm using:
iPhone 4S 32GB - iOS 6
iPad 3rd Gen 16GB - iOS 6
MacBook Pro 2011 i7 (OS 10.8.2) --- iTunes 10.7
When i plug either the iPhone or the iPad in to my computer to sync them both, the iPad/iPhone will vibrate off and on, thinking its plugged in, then not plugged in, then plugged in etc.. I thought it would be a connection, but it definatley isn't as I've checked them over.
Once its finally settled down, it'll start syncing. It's syncing about 2gb of music. About halfway through the sync, it'll stop, and say the sync couldn't be finished because the iPhone has been unplugged.
Because of this, it seems to have jumbled all the music on my iOS devices, and will not sync again. So after restoring both devices, and trying to sync my entire music library back onto my devices (about 20gb of music), the problem isn't resolved. The music on the devices is not in alphbetical order etc.
Not sure what the problem is, hope someone can help!

Welcome to the Apple community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Bt hub 3, itunes, iphone, ipad syncing problems - not seen

Im using the new infinity BT hub 3 and there are now issues with syncing the iphone, ipad and itunes. iTunes does not see them as devices consistantly and when it does (looking for "device"), it says it is not available to sync (not found on the network) and promply they disappear from the upper right hand corner. BT say it's an itunes issue.
I have tried changing from WPA to WEP but this doesn't work, nor does plugging the computer into the ethernet.
The devices show as being on the network by the router, but are not available to sync in itunes
What do we think people? Any ideas to fix this?

As a fallback you could try using the usb cable rather than wifi.
However to you main problem with the wifi. I to have BT infinity and not only was I having issues with not seeing the devices but also a slow speed of streaming to Apple TV3.
Turns out my issue was interference on the wifi from other wifi networks on the same channel.
Mountain Lion has a new wifi utility details here
http://9to5mac.com/2012/07/31/use-mountain-lions-new-wi-fi-scan-utility-to-optim ize-your-home-wireless-network/
Found thayt there seemed to be 3 or 4 houses on channel 6, Changed mine to channel 11, via the BT hub admin page. When everyting settled down again plugged in my devices via USB made sure they were wifi sync enabled and now all works as it should.
If you do not run mountain lion then look for istumbler on google, does the same job and its free

Iphone/Ipad Syncing Problems

When I plug my iphone into the computer I keep getting the following message."Itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." Can anyone tell me what this means and how to correct it?

I have done this but the probelm persists. The issue only seems to be with my Iphone 4 as my ipad syncs fine.
This article mentioned outlook which I don't use and unplugging all my USb devices. I can't do that as all my itunes data is on a portable HD connected to the computer via USB.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

IPhoto freezes when iPhone/iPad connected

Following a full TimeCapusle system restore of MacBookAir, iPhoto freezes as soon as an iPhone/iPad is connected.
-iPhoto works fine when nothing connected
-devices never show in sidebar of iPhoto
-Image Capture works fine for devices
-Other USB devices have no effect
-Problem did not exist before TC restore
Have tried:
-reinstalling iPhoto
-restoring device
-repairing system permissions in disk utility
-deleting com.apple.iPhoto.plist
-repairing/rebuilding iPhoto library
-creating new test iPhoto library
I know iPhoto is on its way out, but I would like to fix this until Yosemite and Photos arrive....
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Try this fix discovered by User photosb189:
From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
Select Library from the drop down menu
Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old), unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto.

New mac, iTunes and iPhone ipad sync

I have an iphone which i used to sync with my old imac, i have recently bought a macbook pro and it seems there is no way to sync my iphone with my new computer without deleting everything on the phone.
Also there is no way to put audiobooks on my ipad which is synced with my new mac book without deleting all music and movies. this makes absolutely no sesnse to me what so ever
I click sync audio books - Are you sure you want to sync audiobooks? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPad “iPad” will be removed.

Ipad and iphone will sync with one aqnd only one comptuer at a time. Syncing to a new computer will indeed erase the contents from the device.
Just copy the entire itunes folder form the old comptuer to the new one.

I want to move photos from iPhoto to my Iphone without syncing my iphone photos to my Mac

Hello,
I want to copy photos on my computer in iPhoto to my iphone without transfering the pictures on my phone to my computer. I believe that the syncing feature in itunes will download the photos into itunes as well as upload the photos I've selected. In summary:
Photos from computer to phone: Good
photos from phone to computer: Bad
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.

I want to copy photos on my computer in iPhoto to my iphone without transfering the pictures on my phone to my computer.
Simple.
Once iPhoto opens, don't import anything..
Just quit the iPhoto application.
I believe that the syncing feature in itunes will download the photos into itunes
iTunes does not download photos from the phone or into iTunes.
iPhoto imports them if you tell it to.

Issue syncing desktop iphoto '09 to iphone/ipad

Having an issue syncing photos from an event from my desktop iphoto '09 (where I can see all of them just fine) to either my iphone or ipad. I even created a separate album with just those specific photos but when I update to phone the album is there but empty...any ideas on solutions?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.
Regards

Duplicate/triplicate events on iPhone

I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5. My computer has OS 10.6.8. I started iCloud for only three apps; Contacts, Calendars and Find My Phone. After looking around some, I realized that with iCloud turned on for Calendars, it would only sync with iCloud and warned that "syncing with the computer could cause duplicates". Well, syncing with the computer then caused duplicates calendars, one set "From My Mac" the other "From iCloud". So I deleted the iCloud accout from the iPhone and deleted ALL Contacts and Calendars from the online iCloud account. I did restart the iCloud accout at that point but only for the "Find My Phone" feature.
Now after syncing my iPhone every ALL DAY event shows up in triplicate and every TIME SPECIFIC event shoes up in duplicate.
I have tried erasing all the calendars from my iPhone and refreshing the iCal Cache file, but the multiple entries continue to persist after syncing.
Any ideas are welcome.
Thank you
jon

If you want calendars to be synced between your iMac and your iOS devices, I think the best option is to use iCloud. If you have some calendars you just want to have on your Mac, store them in the "on my mac" section. Disable syncing of calendars in iTunes, turn on calendar syncing in the iCloud settings of you Mac and your iOS devices.
IPhone and iPad by default keep every calendar ever synced to them. Make sure all calendars are really removed from the iPhone before turning on iCloud calendar syncing.

Calendar events on iPhone not syncing to ical or Mobile Me -- Tiger OS

I had to replace my iPhone 3G with another iPhone 3G due to phone problems. Now, events that I had once put in to iCal are still showing up on my iPhone but are not on my iCal or Mobile Me calendar. As per advice on other threads, I did a complete reset through Sync. Now, I have duplicate calendars (different color coding) but still no events. Can someone please help? I'm not using Outlook, I'm using the Tiger OS.

Thanks for reply.
In Settings>iCloud, my account is set up and appears under heading "iCloud."
In Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars, same account listed under heading "iCloud."
In Calendar list in iPhone Calendar app, new calendar is listing along with all others that are part of iCloud account.
All other calendars in that account sync, just not this new one with ics data imported to iPhone.

IPhoto events still split on sync with iPhoto1.9.3 (607)

I got the new iPhoto upgrade 9.1.3(607) that was supposed to fix the splitting up of events when syncing to the iPad2. It did not work for me ....still looks the same. Anyone else see any results rom the new upgrade? I synced then rebooted the iPad2 still split the events!

-I took another shot at it tonight.
-I restored the Library from time machine to a date before the events split
-then I removed all photos (like 10,000) from the iPad
-Then I resynced with iPhoto but only the last three events (it is one of these with 400 photos from vacation that is being split)
-It went into iPad a synced properly with only three events. the events matched iPhoto's on the iMac.
-I thought I had solved my problems using the latest update of iPhoto and a pre event spitting copyof iPhoto's Library ! Eureka!
-Then I went ahead and synced the whole iPhoto library which took hours.
-WHen the Sync finished The vacation event was split up into many small events just like before.
Now I am really puzzled...Apple I need some help here!

Can I copy iPhoto events from iPhone to Iphoto in iMac?

In my iMac iPhoto, I have lost 4 events, but they are complete in my iPhone iPhoto. Can I copy and insert in the iMaac?

If you just want the photos in their event folders on the EHD and you're running iPhoto 9 (11) or later that can be done rather simply:
1 - select the Events you want to move to the EHD.
2 - use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with the following settings:
Kind = Original or Current depending on if you want to save the original file or the edited version if it's been edited.
Subfolder Format = Event Name.
This will export each event to a folder with the same name as the Event to anywhere you'd like, even directly to the EHD.
If you're running iPhoto 8 or earlier you'll have to export each event to folders you've manually created on the EHD before exporting.

Iphone/ipad sync problems

We have all of our devices set to 'Manually manage music and videos'. M daughter's iPhone 5s is obviously very new but suffers from the same issue. We are running iTunes 11.1.1.11 on Windows 7. iTunes ignores the Manually manage setting. It syncs items back to our devices that we deleted from it last time we hooked it up. It even trys to sync e-mail (keeps popping up the login box for my work e-mail in Outlook). None of the individual checkboxes on the other tabs are checked either (Music, Movies, TV Shows). I just plugged the iPad in and it added back in a movie I deleted so I could update the iPad to iOS 7. My daughter is very frustrated because she will delete music and it will add it back the very next time she connects. This is obviously something with iTunes on our PC but we are baffled as to why iTunes is ignoring settings.

Well, after hours of troubleshooting, I think I figured out the problem.
First, the fix:
Select all images in the "offending" album.
While holding down the "Option" key, click right and select "Generate Previews".
Then re-sync, and it works.
My theory on why this works:
I suspect there was no problem with the Aperture Library. I believe the problem was with the iTunes Optimized Image Cache - you know, when iTunes says "Optimizing xx of yy images for iPad". That cache, I believe, is only updated when there is a change to the image. I'm also guessing that deleting the image from the device (iPad or iPhone) does not delete the image from the cache, so if you then re-add it to the device, it pulls it from the cache. So the only way to re-generate the cached image is to make a change to the image. This can be accomplished by making additional adjustments to the image. But of course, no one wants to do that. So instead, another way to update the timestamp on the image is to regenerate the preview. When iTunes sees the update to the timestamp, it goes ahead and runs its "Optimizing..." task, recreating the cached image that gets dumped onto the iPad or iPhone.
So, I believe this is actually a bug in iTunes.
