Error when syncing photos...

Error when syncing photos. When I synchronize my IPad 1 (IOS 4.5.3) with Macbook (OS X 10.5.8) as I always do, an error saying that some pictures could not be synchronized because de IPad can not open those pictures!. Always copied from one device to another without problems! I use the latest version of ITunes. Thanks

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • "Unknown Error" When Syncing Photos

    Okay, so I have a 60 GB fifth generation iPod. I can get music, videos, everything but photos to sync just fine. Originally I tried to sync the photos from a 450 MHz. iMac G3 running 10.3.9 and iPhoto 4.0.2. I got a "-37" unknown error when trying to sync the photos (the music worked just fine, albeit slowly). Technically this setup is supported, although not recommended. So then I sent the photo library over to my October 2005 Powerbook G4, running 10.4.7 and iPhoto 5.0.4. The upgrading of the photo library went smoothly, but the iPod still would not sync the photos, this time giving a "-50" unknown error.
    I have restarted the computers and iPod, used every possible USB port, etc. I restored the iPod on the iMac and that didn't work. I have not restored it from the Powerbook, as the music library on the iMac is large and it takes a long time to move it over USB 1.whatever it is. If anybody thinks this will solve it I will try though...
    So, is the iPod the problem?
    Thanks, Zach.

    it could possibly be a photo that is causing it... corrupt or wrong format or something...
    try only putting the photos on in several stages so that you can find out which one it is...
    just a suggestion... i dont know if it will help

  • Error message when syncing photos from laptop

    When trying to copie photos from laptop to ipad I get the following message :-Photoshoot was not copied to the ipod "sids ipod" because it could not be found

    Although it's for iPhone and Touch, the following document is also worth a try on an iPad. (I'd check your photo cache first.)

  • Runtime error when syncing P1i with PC

    I get a runtime error when syncing my P1i to PC. The error is linked with this file, 'dxp syncml.exe', and the application is said to request the 'Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way'. How do you fix this?

    Thanks Joanne. Let me give you feedback on whats happening so far.
    After some doing, I discovered that my firewall is controlled by Norton Firewall Provider. (Bear in mind I am a novice in terms of managing these computer protocols). To modify the firewall settings, Norton calls this in their the control panel  'Smart firewall', I go to program control then configure. A list of programs came up with the options to add, modify, remove or rename. I searched the list and found that DXP SyncML.exe and mRouterRuntime.exe were listed and set to 'Auto' in the Access column. I noticed that under access, the options include auto, allow, block and custom. I reasoned that 'allow' is the highest level of access, and to support the sync feature, I changed the status to 'allow' from 'auto' for the DXP SyncML and mRouterRuntime executable files. If you believe it is ok and safer to keep the auto status, advise me.
    I did not find in the listing any of these programs; Bearer Abstraction Layer (SCBAL.exe), Generic Device Management Executable (Generic.exe) or Symbian Connect Object Model for Symbian Connect QI (SymbianConnectRuntime.exe).I did a search and located the generic.exe and the other two files under 'common files' in 'teleca shared' folder, and 'symbian' in 'shared' and 'symbianconnectruntime', respectively.
    Norton's control panel for Smart Firewall gave me three options when adding programs: allow, block and manual configure internet settings. The last of the three was recommended by Norton. However, I selected 'allow' for the generic.exe, symbianconnectruntim.exe and scba.exe.Please advise if you believe I need to modify the terms I entered to set up this procedure (is there a better setting that allow me to achieve the same level of functionality without compromising my security?)
    Now Joanne, whats left is for me to try the sync after making these changes. I feel as if I accomplished a lot by only reaching this far. I will have to do a reinstallation of the SE PC Suite before moving on though. Let me explain.
    When the sync failed repatedly because of the unexpected termination linked with the dxp syncml.exe, I uninstalled the SE PC Suite which was done from a disc, and installed a version from the Sony website. That version is 1.6.0, with a copyright date of 2006. With this, the sync worked. By the way I am using Windows 7 Starter. Now what I am going to do later is uninstall this version of the suite, and reinstall the one from the disc that was linked with the problem we are solving. When I do that later, I will give you feedback.
    Just in case you are wondering, I have a vested interest in using the PC Suite from the disc. This application works fine for the file manager component where the drive on the phone and removable media card are read. In the 1.6.0 version, I cannot get the file manager to see the phone as connected though when I put the card (is that called M2 disc?) in the phone, it reads. So, I although sync is working with the 1.6.0 version from the website, I want to use the version I have on disc if the sync component gets over the problem we are trying to solve.
    Hope I am on the right  track so far I thank you profusely for your patience and dealing with my qeurry; the solution will make a world of a difference for me and many other P1i owners. Look foward to the follow up

  • TS3833 I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50).  I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

    I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50).  I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

    Right click the filename that won't download and selsct 'Get Info'. Look at the file path, does it have a //?// in it? That is a problem with Amazon downloads that prevent iTunes from finding the file. Use 'Add Folder' to add the album to your library and try syncing it again

  • Does iTunes sync metadata when syncing photos to an iPad/iPhone? I am using Aperture v3 as my photo library.

    Does iTunes sync metadata when syncing photos to an iPad/iPhone? I am using Aperture v3 as my photo library.

    This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

  • Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events

    Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events or even when i select specific events or albums.

    What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive 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.)

  • Error About Disk Space When Syncing Photos to iPhone

    I just got my new iPhone 4 and have had trouble syncing photos to it. Close to completion I get the below error:
    "No photos were copied to the iPhone “__” because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and photo albums."
    As iTunes reports I have over 10 GB free on the device. Does anyone know how this could be fixed?

    I should note, I tried deleting the photo cache, rebuilding the iPhoto library, and turning off photo sync then syncing then turning it back on.

  • Iphone 4s error when syncing with iPhoto on Macbook Pro

    Hello everyone,
    The screen on my wife's iPhone 4s went out so I am trying to sync the pictures to iPhoto on our Macbook Pro.  She has 6,000+ pictures on the iPhone but when syncing to the computer iPhoto is able to read them all.  The problem is that when I hit the sync button or Import button it only reads about 200 or so photos then gives an error saying there was a problem with one of the pictures on the device so it can't sync at all.  The photos are the only thing that is important to us on the device so any help would be appreciated.  Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.  Also if anyone can recommend a different way or app or system to get them off using the Macbook Pro since the iPhone 4s screen is out i'm open to suggestions.  Thank you again.

  • -208 error when syncing from mac to ipods

    I am getting a -208 error everytime I sync an ipod or nano. The shuffle seems ok, no errors on syncing. Here's a screenshot:
    http://powermixx.com/atempdir/208error.png
    When this error occurs and I press 'Ok', the songs will still sync to the ipod, but nothing else (photos, contacts, etc.).
    When I plugged in this new nano, it prompted me to update the software to version 1.1.2 - which I did. I tried to 'Restore' to the original version, but that failed too!
    Any ideas why?

    I restored my iPod and tried to only copy a small iPhoto album and I still got this error. I'm only trying to copy an iPhoto album and it still occurs. What's the deal, there's no way for me to try and locate a bad audio file out of 25,000 titles. And I'm not even trying to transfer music to the iPod...help!!~~~~

  • Fix for "necessary file could not be found" when syncing photos

    During the holidays I found the fix for an annoying error message when syncing my iPod Touch (2nd gen), my wifes iPhone 3GS and my iPhone 4, that I'm pleased to share with you all:
    The problem was that iTunes gave an error message that "an necessary file could not be found" (my own translation from the Danish wording) when I tried syncing photos - and then syncing stopped/aborted all together. Very annoying!
    But it wasn't all photos that triggered this error, only some. I've tried switching usb-port, removing special folders inside "Pictures" and inside "Library" etc.
    Yesterday I tried to remove the "iPod Photo Cache" folder inside the iPhoto Lib itself. And that resolved this issue! Eg. ctrl-click the iPhoto Lib file, show content of package and delete/move the "iPod Photo Cache" folder to trash.
    Hope this will help others!

    Had the same problem, but with music only. Thank you for the information
