  • Using iTunes to sync photos from selected albums grayed out

    After I connect my iPhone 4 (running iOS 6) to my iMac, launch iTunes, select the iPhone device, then select Photos, I am unable to choose Sync Photos from iPhoto "Selected albums, Events, and Faces, and automatically include Events."  The radio button is grayed out on my primary iMac.  It is not grayed out when I connect the iPhone to my MacBook Air or to another Mac which means it is a problem specific to this one computer (running OSX 10.8.2 and the latest iPhoto and iTunes). I have looked all through the discussions and cannot find a solution to this problem. As suggested in the discussions, I've tried deleting the plists, creating a new account on the iMac and trying it there (it is grayed out there as well), re-installing iPhoto and iTunes, all to no avail. Advice welcome.  Thanks.

  • How to use iSync to sync photos and music?

    Hey guys.
    How do i use isync to sync my music and photos from my imac to my phone?

    You don't.
    iSync is for syncing contacts and calendar data from Address Book and iCal.
    You'll have to look for an alternative third-party application to manage your music and photos, but as you haven't mentioned which – out of the 1000's of phones there are - you've got, I can't make any recommendations.

  • Can I use iCloud to store photos from iPhone and Mac?

    I would like to use iCloud like Dropbox. I have photos that were taken on my iphone and photos that are loaded on my Mac from a camera that I would like to store in the Cloud. I would also like others be able to download their photos of this event to the same Icloud account. Is that possible?.

    The only way you can store photos in iCloud indefinitely is if you add them to a shared stream.  However, when you do this, the photo will be at a lower resolution than the originals.
    My photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for all your devices to receive them.  The only other photos in iCloud are camera roll photos stored in your backup.  However, you can't see anything in the backup unless you restore it to your device.  Also, if you delete the photos from your device and continue to back it up, the backup that contains the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't, and they wil be lost.

  • HT4236 How can I view my synced photos from the computer?

    I have synced my old phone onto the computer prier to getting a new one. Now I would like to view my photos from the computer. How can I do so?

    View what photos?
    Photos taken with the iphone are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • HT201302 how to copy a folder of photos  from imac to ipad

    I have a folder of photos on my imac and would like to put them on my ipad , can someone tell me how to do this? thanks

    There's no way to copy photos directly (e.g., via the Finder, if that's what you were hoping). Instead:
    1 - Import them into iPhoto (or Photos.app if you upgrade to 10.10.3).
    2 - Create a photo album containing all your pictures
    3 - Use iTunes to sync your iPad, after telling iPad which photo albums you want to sync

  • How can i transfer all my photos from iMac iPhoto Library to macbook pro to iPhoto or Adobe Lightroom 5

    Just bought a 13.3" Macbook Pro Retina display Mid 2014 and would like to transfer all my Photos from my iMac to my Macbook Pro.
    I have a thunderbolt cable ?????? Would it work if i connect them together and how ? If i can get some assistance and instructions on how to do it , Will be appreciated .
    Best regards
    Sam

    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    If you're moving to Lightroom:
    You need to export the images from iPhoto to the Finder, then import them to your Lightroom Catalogue.

  • ICloud Photo Library does not show photos from photostream on other devices.

    When I choose to use the iCloud photo library (beta) on my iPhone, the only photos that I can see are recent photos I've taken with my phone. If I disable this and only use the photostream, then all my photos are shown on my phone, including photos I took with my camera and uploaded to my Mac. What's the deal? I like being able to access my older photos or photos taken with other devices on my phone without using storage space. Am I able to do this with the iCloud photo library? Is it bc it's still in beta that I can't?

    Yeah - I'm sticking with Photostream, and iPhoto right now. Once the new photo app is available across the board, and there is more literature on it, I will look into using the cloud, but I'm happy to keep it on my Mac. With the automatic import of Photostream photos, it really doesn't require a lot of work to keep photos on the Mac, and with a regular backup to TimeMachine, I'm comfortable that it is all backed up and safe....

  • How to use itunes, and sync ipod from an external hard drive

    All of my music files are on my external hard drive. I moved my itunes media folder to my external hard drive. I have 150 gig of music and only 25 gig free on my macbook, so I'd like to put it all on my ipod without putting it on my computer, as there isn't enough memory. Every time I try to move the music from my external hd to itunes it starts adding music to my computer's internal hard drive- i thought this would be solved by having my media library in my external hd but it isn't I'm not sure how to get around this. I've already followed the directions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449 but it didn't accomplish what I wanted: For all my music to show up in itunes, and be able to sync my ipod to it, without the music being on my computer's internal hd. I have a macbook.

    Make sure the copy to iTunes media folder is unchecked.

  • Use icloud to get photos from iphone to mac

    I have configured icloud to the best of my knowledge on iphone and MacBook Pro.  Is there a trick to get photos taken on iphone available on the Mac?

    In addition to activating Photostream in the icloud settings, you have to turn on Photostream on both the iPhone and in iPhoto on your mac.

  • Iphone not syncing music from itunes. all other devices are, it's just one iphone on my account

    I'm having an issue syncing one iphone with my itunes account. I have several other iphones and an ipod that will sync just fine. I am running Windows 8. There was a glitch earlier when the new ios came out that was resolved and everything was working fine... now this one phone is not syncing. The music is showing up but when you hit play it just skips through.

  • I have more than one Apple ID.How can I change the ID on my iMac and other devices?

    I am currently working with an iMac with OS X Version 10.9.5, a third generation i Pad with OS 8 and a 5S iPhone with OS 8. Until I upgraded, my iCloud account synched my calendars, contacts, and messages. Now they are not synching. I have acquired several  Apple IDs over the years. Currently one works well with my iPad and iPhone, but not my iMac. However I cannot find a way to change the iCloud setting in my iMac.

    On your iMac, go to System Preferences, iCloud. Click Sign Out, then sign in with whichever account you want to sync with.

  • Why can't I sync photos from pc to ipad using icloud?

  • When trying to sync photos from my PC only a few of the photos end up on my ipad. How can I fix this?

    I am having trouble syncing photos from my PC, only a few end up on my ipad. Does anyone know how to manage this?

    Are you sure that you have selected the photos to sync to the iPad? You must include all of your photos in one main syncing folder in each subsequent sync as well or the previously synced photos will be erased.
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    Select the photos folder that you want to use in the Sync Photos From heading
    Click on any or all of the sub folders within that main folder that you want to sync to the iPad
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
