Edited/Cropped Photos Do Not Sync

I'm taking photos with my iPhone5 camera iOS 7.0.3 and editing them. I edit by cropping and adding a filter. Sometimes I'll take the photo with the filter already selected. Anyway, when I look at my camera roll, all the edited photos are there and all looks good. But when I sync my iPhone to my computer and look at the photos from there, the photos are all unedited. Meaning, all the filters and cropping I did is now gone. Additionally, when wifi is on and Dropbox uploads/syncs the photos, all the filters and cropping are gone as well. I'm confused. Can anyone help?

Thanks for thinking about my problem. Here are my answers to your questions:
The MacBook is running iPhoto 6.0.6 in OSX 10.6.8. My iPad is running version 5.0.1. My iPhone is a 3G running version 4.2.1
The error message I get when syncing to the iPhone says "Some of your photos, including the photo “Early Spring Sunset.jpg”, were not copied to the iPhone “Harry Arader’s iPhone” because they cannot be displayed on your iPhone." This is an odd message because they displayed just fine before the last sync. The sync rejects all but 28 of the 220 or so pictures in the files I've "selected" for the sync.
On the iPad I was going for a much larger number of photos - over 3,000 (there is plenty of room on the device). Basically, iTunes hangs up. Here I get a message saying "The iPad "Harry Arader's iPad" was not synced because the sync could not be completed" (I'm paraphrasing here since it takes a long time to get to this message and I don't have time to run it fruitlessly again).
As to "staying out of the iPhoto Library" this would be great except that the size of my iPhoto library excedes the available space on my MacBook hard drive. Therefore I moved the library to a NAS (network attached server). I carefully followed the steps outlined to create a new library, it works perfectly for iPhoto and it worked fine for Syncing until quite recently.
"Now other places since I made copies" means that I have backed up the photos to yet another hard drive.
The explanation of "exporting to a shared library" means that I exported photos from the iPhoto library to the NAS. The NAS is hard-wired to my ATT UVerse server. I did this so that photos and other files could be accessed by other family members and also so they can be accessed on our TVs (which works BTW!)
Thanks again for any light you can shed...

Photo stream not syncing

so i have a iphone 4s a ipad2, apple tv and i have recently downloaded icloud for pc. My problem is that my photos are not syncing to each device. they all have different images under photostream although they are logged in under the same icloud account. The main pictures are taken from my iphone so what i have done is copied the images from the camera roll on my iphone and copied them into the photostream folder in the icloud software on my pc. when i then turn the photostream software back on on my ipad it only brings back a few clipart images that were saved locally on the ipad months ago from a colouring app.
on the applt tv it is the same thing it will only bring in a few images but these are not the same as what opens on the ipad they are from my phone but only a few. also since i copied the pics from the camera roll on my phone the photostream on my phone has reduced in size also but nothing like the ipad or apple tv
any help would be appreciated

Here's a little more detail on what happens. When you take a photo on your phone it's saved to the camera roll. When the photo app is closed, you are connected to wifi and your phone has at least 20% battery life remaining, it will then upload to photo stream in iCloud. Once there, iCloud will stream a "device optimized" copy of the photo to your iOS devices and Apple TV, and a full resolution copy to your computer. Once on your devces, a rolling collection of up to 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted. However, they only stay in iCloud for 30 days (even though they remain on any device that has already received them). Because of this, when you connect a new device to your photo stream, it downloads all the photo stream photos still in iCloud; which are only the phtoos from the last 30 days. This creates a situation where you may have old photo stream photos on your phone than the ones you have on other devices, which were connect to your photo stream at a later date.
To get these older photos to appear on your other iOS devices, you can add them to a shared photo stream and invite yourself. To get them to your PC, save them to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then import them using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Photos do not sync properly

I am having some curious trouble with photos syncing properly from an iPhoto album to my iPhone 3GS.
I have an album with 6 photos. I edited all six photos in iPhoto using "Edit in External Editor". After editing and saving, the photos show in the iPhoto event the way I want them, as well as in the album in question.
However, when I sync the phone in iTunes, the photos in the album show up as before they were edited. They do not sync properly. They look fine in iPhoto, but not on the phone.
I have tried the following things to make this work.
I have deleted all the photos in the album, unchecked the album in iTunes under Photos, and synched. Then I added the edited photos to the album again, checked the album in iTunes under Photos and synched again. This did not work. The photos still show up as before the edit.
I unchecked the album again in iPhoto, synched the phone and then did a reset of the phone by pressing the sleep/wake button and the Home button at the same time and waiting until the Apple logo appeared again. I then checked the album in iTunes again, and synched. This also did not work.
Lastly, I deleted the album entirely in iPhoto, and recreated the album from again by choosing the edited photos in question inside the event, and then hitting the "+" button in the lower left of the iTunes window. This also did not work.
The weird thing is, that I have also edited at least one other photo in a differnt album, which then synched properly.
I hope somebody has an idea as to how to fix this.

look, in all these 2000 things you tryed there is one thing i don't thing you did actually try, which is to rename the photos in the album.
This did not work either.
sometimes it may hapen that you cannot sync properly if you have strange names or sometimes the itunes doe not see the files properly.
Strange names? What do you consdider to be strange names? "Sometimes iTunes does not see the files properly"? Where do you get that idea?
try renaming 'em and see if it works. you can also rename the folder with the photos.
Renaming the photos does not work. Renaming the event (that is what you mean I think) does not work either.
also, another thing; try to select your photos in iphoto and take them off with the mouse and put them in a folder in some other location in teh computer (like for example the desktop) and sync them from taht location in itunes, it may help.cheers!
This is complete nonsense. Photos have to be in an album in iPhoto in order to be synched with the iPhone via iTunes. Putting photos anywhere else on the computer does not allow them to be synched with the phone. They must be in iPhoto.

Address Book Contact Photos will not sync over to iPhone 2G

So here is the deal. I just bought a new 21.5" iMac w/ Snow Leopard. I had a iMac G5 with Leopard previously and rather than using migration assistant, i just copied over the applicable folders and files (per my research) so that my contacts would be present on the new computer. Everything seems fine except the contact photos will not sync over to my iPhone. Has anyone run across this? Help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers

any body?

My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

I had the same thing happen to me. It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library". This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty. Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing. Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices. If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
I spent an hour with an Apple Genius. he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system. His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system. I suspect that this won't solve it.
The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer

Photos will not sync across devices in iOS 8.1

I have iOS 8.1.1 on both my iPad and my iPhone 5. After installing the new iOS and selecting 'iCloud Photo Library (Beta)' on both devices, the 'my photo stream' folder has disappeared and photos will not sync across devices. Everything was fine prior to installing the new iOS. Can anyone help me to fix this? Thank you!

Hi sueb21,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta there are some differences from what you may be use to. Please read over the attached article for information on how your pictures are now organized and for how you can turn it off if you choose to do so.
iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
What happened to the My Photo Stream and Camera Roll albums?
The Camera Roll and My Photo Stream album are replaced with an All Photos album, which gives you the same compact scroll view, now with all your photos and videos organized by the date they were added. Learn more about finding photos in iOS 8.
After you enable iCloud Photo Library, all your original photos and videos are organized in one library. My Photo Stream will upload recent photos to share with your other devices, but iCloud Photo Library stores your originals. See how to upload originals below.
Have a great day,
Joe

Photos will not sync on iTunes 11

Plugging in the latest iPad with the latest iTunes, select the folder of new photos I want on my iPad and hey presto, nothing.
ITunes does freeze quit a bit and says that it has performed the sync, but nothing on the iPad. ITunes 10 did this with no problems, since the update to 11 I can't sync photos using a 32 bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
The other annoying thing is that it gets into iTunes screen and there is no icon to get into the iPad. The userbility of iTunes 11 is awfull and not Mac typical at all. What moron allowed this rubbish to be released? iTunes 11 is as buggy as **** with userbility issues.

You may find the following steps make iTunes 11 more bearable
1) Ctrl + B to turn on the top menu
2) View > Show Sidebar to turn on left panel showing Library, Devices, Playlists etc
3) View > Show Status Bar to see song info at the bottom in grey bar
4) Click on arrow in Search Box and untick Search Entire Library - this will increase performance and revert Search to the way it worked in iTunes 10

Photos in iphone 4s photo stream not sync all with macbook air in iCloud

Exactly what suggestions have you followed and what was the result?
First, be sure that you are logged into the same iCloud account on both devices.

Windows 7 Photo Stream not syncing after iCloud 3.0

HELP! I am a relatively new to the IPhone community. My husband bought me one for Christmas 2013. I have the IPhone 5s . Like many users, I want to be able to back up the pictures I take and or receive on my phone to my computer. I have a Dell laptop running on Windows 7. I downloaded iCloud 3.0 and have the checked off the box next to Photos. I also have Photos turned on in the ICloud settings on my phone. I experienced this problem back in April, where my photos were not syncing to my computer. I contacted Apple Support, and he ran several tests. I took a couple of pictures, and they started syncing. While I was not able to get all of my photos, I had the majority of them and I figured the problem was solved and would continue to sync from there on out.
I just checked this past weekend and saw none of my recent photos were there. I proceeded to google the subject, tried deleting the ICloud control panel and redownloaded it, and then forced a backup on my phone. It only backed up 87 of the 517 photos I have in my Photo Stream. I tried these trouble shooting options below but once again, only have 90 of the 517 photos I have:
1. Open Task Manager (ctrl, alt and delete) and end ApplePhotoStream.exe and AppltPhotoStreamDownloader.exe if they’re running.
2. Go to your Users folder and navigate to the following path: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MediaStream\
3. Delete everything in that folder.
These files are a local cache of what has already been synced but it appears to get stuck so deleting these files forces it to resync again from scratch.
4. Open iCloud Control Panel and make sure “Photos” are checked.
The above steps force re-downloading of images after any stuck point. It should make sure that your newer images are downloaded.
My husband has an IPhone as well, and his photos sync no problem to his IPad. I am assuming this works better since they are both Apple Products. Can someone please help me resolve this issue as I would like to be able to get my photos on my computer so I can delete some of them off my phone?

If the missing photos were added to photo stream more than 30 days ago they are no longer in iCloud (although they may still be on your your phone). In that case, to get the older photos to stream to your computer you can add them to a shared stream on your phone (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). (Note: when creating the shared stream, you don't have to invite any subscribers. As the owner of the shared stream you are automatically subscribed to it; just skip that step.) Another option is to save them to the camera roll on the phone and import them to your computer using your usb cable, as explained here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.

Photos do not sync

I have taken a lot of pictures with my iPhone. Lately when I sync these thru iTunes to my iPad, some will not sync ' because they cannot be displayed on your iPad'. I am not sure what the problem is as it would seem that the format of the iPhone and iPad would be the same. I have a iPhone 4, Original iPad, OS X 10.6.7 Snow Leopard running on a MacBook Pro. I cannot say for sure when this all started, only that some photos will not sync over. This may not be the correct discussion to post, but one has to start somewhere.
thanks to all

Hey Louise,
Do the full resolution pictures show up correctly in iPhoto?
Try creating another iPhoto Library by renaming the iPhoto library folder or holding Option when you launch iPhoto> choose Create Library. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/6.0/en/hlp156.html
After creating the new test library, import the pictures from the desktop into iPhoto and try to sync again.
You can always go back to the old photo library by launching iPhoto holding Option and Choosing the library. The default photo library location is ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library.
If it works from there there may be an issue with the iPhoto library that can be resolved by a rebuild.

Iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

What is the best program to use on Mac for editing, cropping photos from my computer. Looking for a free program that is good.

If your needs are limited to those tasks then both Preview and iPhoto will fit the bill They are already on your Mac. There is a free download from Google called Picasa available here:
http://picasa.google.com/
It works much the in same manner as iPhoto. For some really heavy duty work there is GIMP available from SourceForge:
http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/ Also a free download.

Why do my photo stream not sync between iPhone 4S & iPad? Some pics do but not all

Why does the photo stream not sync between iPhone 4S & iPad? Some pics do, some don't.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
    1.    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    2.    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    3.    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.
