I can no longer sync my photos since ios6. Any advise?

Since upgrading to iOS6 on my iPhone 4S I can no longer sync my photos in iPhoto via iTunes.
The sync photos is checked but only the sync all option is available and the sync fails at the photo step with an unknown error.
All apps and OS's are current and otherwise functioning properly. Any thoughts?

I'm seeing the same problem. The sync from iTunes stops when starting to sync photos and the "Unknown Error 1140" message appears. I tried several times, then decided to uncheck the Photos Sync in iTunes. The sync then proceeded without problems (without the photos of course).
My feeling is that I don't really need to sync the photos as I'm using Photo Stream and save all photos (taken with the iPhone) to the Camera Roll. The Camera Roll photos are then saved to iPhoto on my MacBook Pro via Photo Stream. I tend not to have other albums on my iPhone (other than a few test albums) - just use the Camera Roll basically.
I'm using an iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and the latest iPhoto 9.4 - also the latest Mountain Lion 10.8.2.

Okay lets check few things. Tell me what you can see that is similar to mine. I'll be travelling today so I have soem time now and later tonight ... just so you don't thing I've "gone awol".
1. In iTunes, Preferences > Device Preferences if you want manual then you should set the iPhone from syncing automatically
2. Also check you have music in your iTunes Library
3. Then on your device tab =Music you select Sync Music, slect your playlists annd then select apply in the lower right corner.
Let me know

HT1386 I can no longer sync my books to my iPod touch.

Okay someone help me out, PLEASE!
My daughter and I bought new e-books and wanted to put them on our iPods to read with iBooks. First I tried with my daughter's. I added her books to her iTunes account. Her settings are set to sync all books, rather than selected books. I clicked "apply" then clicked "sync". Then I got an error message saying it could not add the 4 files (the four new books) because they could not be found. I double-checked and they were still showing up in her iTunes library where I'd put them but kept saying they could not be found when I went to sync. I also kept getting the message "cannot connect to iTunes store" which was odd but my daughter's had lots of issues with her iTunes before so before I pulled out anymore of my hair I decided to switch over to my account and put my new books on my iPod.
Umm yeah that wasn't happening either. I have mine set up to only sync selected items. I added all my new books into my iTunes. I opened up my iPod settings and went into the book section, found the new books I wanted to add, checked them all and clicked "apply" then "sync". I never got an error message, however I also didn't see the little writing during the sync that would say "adding [book title]" either. So I checked my iBooks account and sure enough they aren't in there. I tried several dozen more times, I even tried switching my settings to sync ALL the books in my iTunes and it would not add any new books at all. And before it's suggested YES, I had the room/space on my iPod for the files (same with my daughter).
This happend to me once before and I got totally frustrated and annoyed and ended up deleting every single book out of my iTunes, as well as deleting my iBooks app altogether. Then I readded iBooks and re-added a few books at a time to my iTunes account and synced and it worked fine. The next time I had a few books to add I held my breath sure it wouldn't work but it did. And the next few times was fine. Then today this happened again! I really don't want to have to take all my books off again (as I'm in the middle of reading one) and delete the app, etc. so I really hope someone can suggest something else. I'm about to just say screw it and sell my iPod and get a kindle or a kobo or something.

Well, I can see a potential problem with that, although you must have made it work before.
I had a set up on a Windows computer like that, but the iTunes accounts couldn't communicate or share content. We consolidated, after much fuss, to one Library, one location.
This may be why your daughter has problems connecting to the iTunes store. The "server" is serving 2 accounts.
I am sure it is why the books didn't sync and can't be found on her iTunes account. If you look on her iTunes on the computer, are the book titles pale gray? is there an ! point on them? This means that while the computer knows they were there, they can't connect with the actual content. After all they can't be in two places at once. iTunes can sometimes offer to "rebuild the path" to lost files, I don't know it that would work here.
As for why they come and go from your device, I can only guess it is because they are not iTunes purchases. Just like my PDFs, iTunes tolerates them, but really doesn't know what they are, or what to do with them, so it does nothing. (unless you make it!) Not that iTunes treated the iBooks I did get from iTunes any better.
As I posted above, the only way I could get it to work was to delete stuff, which seemed to shock iBooks into syncing the books and PDFs. Maybe, finish the book you are reading, delete all then add new books? (Sorry,it's all I got)
If you are going to share content, one iTunes Library, but separate Apple IDs would work better. But that is up to you (I'm also a parent, I get it) I share with my 2 sons.
You mentioned a Kindle. I have one. Never use it, but it is an older one. The paperwhite seems like a good idea. It is absolutely impossible to transfer PDFs to the kindle in a print size big enough to read unless it's
24 pt type going in. Didn't work for me, might work for you.

I can no longer sync my photos. I used to be able to. Last time I successfully synced pictures was April. Any recommendations?

I have not been able to sync pictures since May. What changed? I had been able to sync pictures for many years. Any ideas on how to correct this? I updated all software. Camera hasn't changed.

Are you talking about syncing pictures that are you located on your PC? If so, have you double check to make sure the Sync Photos option was ticked from under your iPod's Photos tab? See this article for more assistance.

Can no longer sync Photos from Airport Disk

I can no longer sync photos from my Airport Disk to my tv.
This used to work fine- When I first got the tv I checked the "sync photos from" option in the photos tab in iTunes, navigated to my network drive/ pictures folder and hit sync. The photos slowly copied over.
Just this week however, I went to add some new pictures and iTunes/ tv no longer sync. The status bar just spins saying "Syncing"...I have left it overnight with no change.
I have recently updated to the latest version of iTunes and Airport Extreme firmware, but that is about it in terms of changes/updates. Anyone have any ideas?
- Firewall is off
- Permissions seem ok on the Airpot Disk. Everything is read/write
- I have rebooted/ reset/ re-synced everything. It just hangs on Photos. Music etc go over fine.
Specs:
iMac G5 PowerPC
Airport Extreme N base station with OWC USB drive attached as airDisk
tv 1.0 40 gig - using ethernet connection to router
iTunes 7.4.2
I am really stumped! I think that the airport disk permissions or mount are still suspect but dont know what else to check.
Does iTunes spit out a log or write to the console? Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
AC

I think I have figured it out, and photos are syncing now.
Here is what I believe happened: There is an iTunes generated folder called "iPod Photo Cache" in my "Pictures" folder on my Airpot Disk. This folder gets generated by iTunes whenever you designate a location for syncing. The "iPod Photo Cache" folder contains a file called "Photo Database".
It looks like the "Photo Database" had been corrupted. Deleting this file, or alternatively, moving my pictures to a new folder and letting iTunes regenerate the Photo Database fixed the problem.

Can no longer sync photos from iPhoto to my iPad or iPhone

I can no longer sync from iTunes to my iPad or iPhone if I want to sync photos from iPhoto. I keep getting the following error:
"The iPad "XXXXXXXXXX" cannot be synced because it cannot be read from or written to."
If I choose not to sync photos everthing works fine.

I had a similar problem only neither my iPad nor my iPhone would sync and I was getting error 1106.
I looked it up and it said delete the iphoto cache, which I did and I also turned of syncing photos.
Now when I turn on SYNC PHOTOS FROM, the choice of Select albums........ is greyed out and cannot be clicked.
I don't want to sync my entire set of photos.

I can no longer sync my phone with photos library?

Is there anyone else who's experiencing difficulties with photo synchronisation?

same problem here. Am very frustrated hopefully apple fixes this soon becuase my phone almost feels useless now because i cannot customise it with my own things from my computer! gah!

Can no longer sync photos to my iPod Photo

Without any change in hardware, but AFTER installing iTunes 7 via Software Update, I can no longer sync photos to my iPod. (I have had no problems syncing music, pictures, contacts and calendars since purchasing an iMac G5 "iSight" 15 months ago.)
Music appears to sync correctly, as do calendars and contacts. But after trying to sync photos, iTunes stops with the following message: "The iPod 'my iPod' could not be synced. The required file cannot be found."
I have Restored my iPod and attempted to sync, but receive the same message.
I REPLACED my iPod's hard drive! Upon syncing, I receive the same message.
I deleted iPhoto Library/iPod photo cache folder and was then able to sync photos to iPod, BUT upon reopening iPhoto, and a forced reindex (?) of pictures resulted in about 1/3 missing.
After restoring the iPhoto Library from a backup, syncing the iPod results in the same original error. Deselecting syncing photos in iTunes removes photos from iPod, but upon syncing, same error message.
Restoring iPod again, results in same error message.
Does anyone have a solution? What required file is missing?
iBook G4 1Ghz/iMac G5 iSight Mac OS X (10.4.3) iPod Photo 40GB
iBook G4 1Ghz/iMac G5 iSight Mac OS X (10.4.3) iPod Photo 40GB

I too had a problem. iTunes wouldn't sync any photos nor list my iPhoto Albums.
I created a second iPhoto library and then added some photos and created several albums to see if iTunes could see the new iPhoto library. It did see the new library. I then started to add photos to it. I finally found the offending files - 4 .avi files - that for some reason when added to the library caused iTunes to balk. I removed the files and all is well. I even have other .avi files in the original library and iTunes responds normally - just those 4 caused the problem.

Since recent flurry of updates, all of which I applied, I can no longer sync photos to my iOS6 devices. Any thoughts

Since recent flurry of updates, all of which I applied, I can no longer sync photos to my iOS6 devices.
iTunes sync error at the photo sync step with an unknown error 1140.
I have restarted everything, unsynced & attempted re sync to no avail.
The photo sync screen only allows me to select the sync all option, the select specific events, albums etc . Choice is greyed out.
This is true for both my iPhone 4S and ipad2.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

After updating to iOS 5.1.1 I can no longer sync to iTunes

Any error messages or numbers given during the sync process? Does your phone come up in the device list?
Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data doing a reset.

Can no longer sync Ipod.

I was syncing my ipod after adding some new things to my library and it told me that there wasn't enough space on my ipod, should it create a playlist and just sync that instead.
I clicked yes not really playing much attention, and then after looking at the playlist it was syncing realised that I didn't want it to do tat as some of my favourtie songs might not have ended up on my ipod, so I deleted the playlist. Now I can no longer sync my ipod at all as a message comes up saying something about it not being able to sync as not all playlists are present.
How can I fix this? I go on holiday on Friday with my dad I need my ipod!!

as a message comes up saying something about it not being able to sync as not all playlists are present.
Here's one way around that. First, in itunes, work out what plylists you want to synch to the iPod and/or create additional playlists containg the material you want to sync to the iPod.
Now plug in the iPod. When it connects, in iTunes click on the Music tab for the iPod. Under "Sync Music" you will currently have "selected playlists" selected.
In the list of playlists beneath that, deselect the playlists that you deleted earlier, and select the playlists that you do want to sync to the iPod. Then click the "Apply" button.
