Error exporting fotos from iPhoto on my iPad to iTunes on my Windows7 laptop

dear community,
all worked fine for months.
now suddenly, the export process ends with an error message "cannot copy files ... file name already exists".
then the entire folder with what looks to me like a complete file set is removed again.
any ideas?
thanks!
martin

hi,
what i did and figured out thus far:
1) deleting all fotos first from the iPad and then also from iPhoto (also deleted all my journals there) did nothing to fix the problem
2) removing and reinstalling iPhoto did nothing to help either
3) i cross-tested my iPad and my wife's with both our laptops to rule out any problem in iTunes ... which proved the problem resides within the iOS of my iPad
4) next step: completely resetting my iPad ...
oh what crap apple stuff can sometimes prove to be ....
cheerio,
martin

    How can I export photos from iphoto to my ipad?

    Like putting every thing else on to your iPad, this is done via iTunes.

    When i try to sync photos from iPhoto to my iPad using iTunes,  the "Selected Folders" option is greyed out with only the "All Folders" option available, how do i change this?

    I add the keyword 'sync' to any photos I want added to the iPhone/iPad.
    Then, during the regular process of syncing the iPhone/iPad with my computer (mac), the photos with that keyword would be copied onto the iPhone, iPad.
    I've been doing it this way ever since I was shown how to; ie after I got my iPhone 2 years ago. And every time the process worked - until the last few weeks. Suddenly it doesn't do it any more.
    I believe I have upgraded software (either iTunes or iPhoto or both) during this period. I try to keep my software updated but have noticed previously that the new version often is disappointing.
    I've not tended to use Smart albums much.

  • Exporting Fotos from IPhoto to Facebook

    ok I am using Iphoto version 6. I am having problems with exporting files from IPhoto to Facebook. The editing touches on the fotos do not show up on my facebook album.
    2 attempts:
    1st i tried to go to the Modified Folder, where my edited pictures are store through IPhoto, to upload. I did but once uploaded, the edits do not show.
    2nd attempt, i downloaded facebook editor Iphoto patch. And everytime i try to upload the fotos, my iphoto closes. like the support side said, i have found the application and went to view contents to delete the patch then reinstalled it. And still I cannot enter the program to upload my iphotos to facebook.
    Will someone please help me? Thanks

    The sure way is to select the photos and export them to a desktop folder (file menu ==> export) and upload using the Facebook web upload from that folder
    If you are having problems with the third party facebook iPhoto uploaded you should contact them for support

  • Can I import photos from iPhoto to my iPad?

    Just a quick question, would it be possible to download photos and videos especially, from iPhoto to my iPad?
    I have a few videos that I would like to keep on my iPad, but are too big to send via email.
    Thanks

    You can connect your iPad to your computer and transfer via iTunes.
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Items wont sync from iphoto to my ipad

    I keep getting an error message saying 1400 photos cannot be synced to my ipad (original) and to see itunes for more information but I cannot get help. It will only sync older events from iphoto to my ipad, please help. Do I need to do a restore? Also, iphoto crashes a lot when doing photo editing

    Hi Simmm ~ I just purchased iphoto '11 (was using '09) on my imac. Iphoto has been crashing for a few months now, especially when I retouch any photos. I am hoping upgrading to a better version of iphoto will do the trick. I am going to buy the new ipad on Friday ~ so I would do a restore on my original ipad after that anyway so I can give it to my husband. I will let you know if this works ~ thanks SO much for your reply! Oh and ... if I do a restore, how do I get all my ipad apps back? Will they still be in itunes when I sync?

  • Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

    Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.
    It may be my own fault due to learning Aperture and playing around with the locations of the Master Files.
    The thing I don't understand is that when in iPhoto all thumbnails of all photo's are able to be enlarged / edited etc. When a thumbnail is clicked on there is no gray triangle with an exclamation mark indicating that the link to the original photo can't be found. I would have thought this was ok for syncing to take place.
    When trying to sync through iTunes to my iPad for example (after some photo's have been synced) a window comes up saying "Some of your photos, including the photo “_MG_3820.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “Mark Harlen’s iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad".
    I thought this may be due to lack of memory space but my Apple TV (which has the same issue but not the same warning window) has over over 100 free GB's so that can't be it.
    When I did a test and re imported one photo that wasn't being synced to my other devices, that photo consequently was then synced so maybe it has something to do with the path through iPhoto to the original files.
    Is there any way I can re establish these links with out having to create an entire new iPhoto library from the originals (I have a lot of albums and have done a lot of editing etc and don't and want to have to do it all again).
    I look forward to you help and advice
    Mark

    Thanks for the advice but it didn't seem to work
    I've decided to try ditching iPhoto and orgainising, syncing my photo's to all devices from Aperture
    I have so far imported over 1200 photo's (relocating and renaming the master files as well) and find that when syncing through iTunes only 209 photo's are listed. The Projects/Albums are there but some indicate that there are 0 photo's in them when I know other wise (at least according to whats happing in Aperture)
    I'm starting to suspect it may be a computer problem
    Any thoughts?
    Regards
    Mark
    PS: Just after posting this I restarted my computer, went into iTunes and my Apple TV started to sync. It was now syncing 854 photo's not 209 as before.

  • How do I export photos from iphoto to a memory card?

    How do I export photos from iphoto to a memory card?

    Not using the correct structure. Camera's use a very exact structure and the only way the camera will see photos on the card is for them to be in that exact structure

  • Export pix from iPhoto 4.0.3 to a digital picture frame (Tiger OS)

    Can't succeed in downloading pix using a card reader. Desired pix moved to an album, then export selected. In dialog box, file export and album name are selected, jpg extension selected, pixel size changed and use extension is selected. The jpg file type and pixel size items conform to frame mfgr specs. The system proceeds to do something as the 100+ photos are supposedly transferred. After proper disconnection from the Mac, the Xd card is placed in the frame but no pix show up. In trying different sizes and extensions, the system prompts that these pictures already exist, as if the pictures are loaded into the card. I have tried creating a desktop file and dragging the album from iPhoto to the desktop with no success ( a subsequent move from the desktop to the card reader icon was planned). How can I be sure that the pix are on the card? How does the system know I want the pix to go on the card since it was never selected? Vince V

    Vince V,
    How does the system know I want the pix to go on the card since it was never selected?
    Any time you export files from iPhoto (or save files in a Save or Save As dialog box in another application) you have to designate a location for the exported (or saved) files. If you did not designate the Xd card as your location, then the system does not know you want the exports saved there. Where did your exports go? Can you do a Finder Search for them?
    Desired pix moved to an album, then export selected. In dialog box, file export and album name are selected, jpg extension selected, pixel size changed and use extension is selected.
    Did you remember to select all of the pix in the album before selecting export? It has been a very long time since I've used version 4, but in iPhoto 6 when you click the Export button in the dialog box you described it opens to a standard Mac Save As dialog box. That second box is where you specify the location for the exported files. Are you getting that dialog?
    I have tried creating a desktop file and dragging the album from iPhoto to the desktop with no success ( a subsequent move from the desktop to the card reader icon was planned).
    I would recommend a 2-part move, just as you describe here. What did happen when you tried to drag the photos to the desktop folder?
    Regards.
