HT4236 Sync some iPhoto Events to my iPad or iPod

I'm using itunes 11.0.1 and iPhoto 9.2. When i specify to synch a couple of iPhoto events to my ipad or iPod, itunes does sync only some of this events to my mobile device. I already deleted the ipod photo chache, but the results are unfortunatly the same. What goes wrong with my iTunes synchronisation? The SW Version on my ipad 3 is latest Release.
Thanx for your help

Thanks Ralph. The iTunes version is 11.1.5. There was a facility where you could select various "Events" from a table in iPhoto and sync just them to your iPad. Finding that function is my current problem

Duplicate iPhoto events in iPhone/iPad sync

I'm getting duplicate iPhoto events showing up when I try to sync my iPhone and/or iPad. These events are not in duplicate in iPhoto itself. I have tried repairing the iPhoto database and it's file permissions. I have no idea why iTunes reads these events like so (see included screen shot). Any help would be appreciated; thanks in advance.

Hi!
I also have this problem.
iTunes 10.2.2 (12)
iPhoto 9.1.2 (605)
It seems that iTunes separates the pictures of an event, which was imported at different times.

IMovie iPhoto video events not in sync with iPhoto Events

iMovie iPhoto events is not the same as my iPhoto events. I have recently amended a few events in iPhoto and to which I am satisfied with. However, iMovie is still showing the old events. For example (EVENT Holiday would contain two holidays originally - so I split this in iPhoto and that is displaying well. iMovie is still showing the old event with both holidays).
I've tried rebuilding iPhoto - all four options - and deleted the iMovie plist (think that is what you call it) but to no good conclusion. Please help?

The basic problem you are facing is the use of the internal camera. It is designed for simple web cam usage rather than movie making. If you are making a Face Time call, the variable frame rate helps you, because when there is not a lot of movement, it will slow down the frames and give you better performance at a lower bandwidth. If the audio is a little off you do not care.
Long term, you can solve this by using a camcorder that shoots at a constant framerate.
For your immediate problem, I think that the suggestion to use MPEG Streamclip was a good one.
Basically, you would be dragging in this file with the variable frame rate and using MPEG Streamclip to save it out as a file with a constant framerate. You should now have a file at 30 fps with audio to match, within reason.
Try dragging your clip into MPEG Streamclip. Click the PLAY button so you can see that it plays. Then FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME. For Compression, choose Apple Intermediate Codec. Leave the sound setting as Uncompressed. In the Frame Rate box, type 30. Click the check box for Frame Blending. Deselect the box that says Interlaced Scaling.
Finally, click the MAKE MOVIE button, and give at a name. Save it to a location where you can find it. You can then import this into iMovie if you want, but using FILE/IMPORT MOVIE in iMovie.

Issue syncing desktop iphoto '09 to iphone/ipad

Having an issue syncing photos from an event from my desktop iphoto '09 (where I can see all of them just fine) to either my iphone or ipad. I even created a separate album with just those specific photos but when I update to phone the album is there but empty...any ideas on solutions?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

Is it simply not possible to sync Google Calendar event colours to iPad?

Hey all!
I've had a search and found a previosuly asked, but as yet unanswered post, had a good blast over the internet and am now just about at my conclusion - is syncing the colours of individual events in Google Calendar to my iPad, simply not possible?
I know each of my calendars will appear as a seperate colour, but I also colour each event within my Google Calendars according to what they are. As yet, I can only get them to sync to my iPad in the colour that has been assigned to that calendar.
I hope this makes sense!

What "size" do you want?
WHat iPhoto shows you is not the "total disk space". It shows you the size of the folder you would get if you dragged the current version of the pics in the Event or Album to a folder on the desktop. It does not tell you the size of the originals, for instance, nor of the thumbnails and database and other ancillary files.
So, it's nowhere near the "total disk space" of these images and their support files. Have a look on the iPhoto forum. There are regular queries along the lines of "How come iPhoto tells me my Library is 21 gigs but the Finder reports it as 44 gigs?"
iPhoto can do this because when you edit an original it creates an actual modified copy and stores it on the HD. (And, you can, of course, produce entirely different results if you play with the export settings.)
Aperture can't tell you that. Why? Because
1. There's no modified version, just entries in the db
2. The size of the exported image depends entirely on the export presets you choose - and there are literally thousands of potential options these
3. Dragging to the desktop only gets your Previews.
So, iPhoto isn't really telling you anything very accurate, and Aperture couldn't because of the way it works.

After installing new HDD, some iPhoto Events/Photos won't display

Problem: I upgraded to 1TB HDD a couple of days ago and tried to use the System Restore from Backup under Disk Utility. It never worked, got to a blue screen and just hung. So I reloaded Snow Leopard and then used Setup Assistant to move Apps/Files/Settings from my Time Machine Backup.
Today I was going through files to see if anything was missing and found a number of Events from 2010 that wouldn't display in iPhoto '08, just dark squares but with the event name underneath.
Rolling the mouse over the empty square displayed the correct number of photos for the event but photos wouldn't display.
Next I "Browsed" the Time Machine Backup (from iPhoto) and the same Events were also empty on Time Machine Backups.
The funny thing is the empty events are scattered meaning I have a full Events from Feb and March 2010 but empty events from Jan, Feb and May 2010. And then when I go into the Empty Events on Time Machine, I can call up the photo number but the photo won't display.
Is there a way to recover these photos? I'm pretty sure there on the TM backup and also on my new HDD.
As a "suspenders/belt" type person, I have the photos backed up on a Windows PC but rather work through this problem first.

You can enter TM while in iPhoto and do a search for some of the missing photos by file name. When you find a version that appears to have them in exit TM, go to your Pictures folder, reenter TM, go to that version and restore the entire library. I'd keep both your current library and the restored. Then you can check to see if the missing photos are in the restored library.
If neither library have all of the photos but do combined you can use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to merge the two libraries into a new 3rd library setting the option to not import duplicates. That should get you a complete library.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

HT4236 Sync Both iPhoto and Mac Folder to IOS

Can I sync both photos that are stored in a mac folder and my iphoto photos at the same time?
I don't want my work photos imported to the iphoto library but I'd like to have them on my ipad.
Thank you

iTunes is set up to sync photos from one source at a time.

How to Sync Modified iPhoto Photos to New iPad?

Hi, the question is really in the title. I have just returned from holiday and have edited 300+ photos in iPhoto. These have been synced to my iPad which is only showing the originals, not the modified versions. After searching these forums I found a solution for the iPhone - deleting the iPod cache file in iPhoto package contents - but this did not help on the iPad.
I have batch changed the names of the photos and re-synced but this has not helped. I suspect I could export them all and then re-import but iPhoto loses tagged faces doing that and having spent hours assigning faces I'm not keen on going through that again.
Has anyone cracked this particular issue, or could someone with an iPad try modifying a photo and seeing if it syncs okay - would be good to know if this is a local issue to me or a generic problem.
Thanks.
David.

Hi, René,
that is not as it should be, so pardon my very basic questions - just to be sure:
How do you sync from iTunes? Have you set the "Sync Photos from" pop-up menu in the "Devices" tab in iTunes to "Aperture" and not to your "Pictures" folder?
To sync the edited versions, you have to sync with Aperture and not with the masters folder on the Disk. Set Aperture to share Previews with the iLife Applications (in the Aperture Preferences > Previews tab) and to automatically create the Previews. Set the preview quality and size to your main display dimensions.
If you already have that, please post back and explain more how you are syncing with your iPhone.
Regards

How to sync different iPhoto libraries to different ipads

I have 2 iphoto libraries; 1 for me and 1 for my mum. I sync her iPad and my iPhone on my same iTunes copy. Is there a way I can chose different iPhoto libraries for our devices from 1 iTunes?
Or should I set up a new iTunes application just for her on a separate login on my MacBook?

iTunes will always sync with the iPhoto Library that has last been opened in iPhoto.
Before syncing her iPad, quit iTunes and iPhoto and double-click her iPhoto library to open it in iPhoto.
Then relaunch iTunes and connect her iPad. Now you should see her iPhoto library in the panel to sync photos.

I use Time Machine to back up my iMac. How can I copy some iPhoto events from my external hard drive to my MacBook?

I back up my iMac on my external hard drive. When trying to copy the iPhoto Library onto my MacBook, I get the message "Cannot use TM backup as main library". I don't even see an option to choose certain Events to copy. Is there any way I can choose particular Events in iPhoto to copy to my MacBook? How can I get the photos on my MacBook?

If you're on Leopard or Snow Leopard, or Lion with iPhoto '08 or earlier, see the gray box at the end of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #15.
If not, you cannot restore individual photos; just the entire iPhoto library. A workaround is to restore it to an alternate location, such as your desktop, then export the selected photos from there. See the pink box in the same article.

Some iPhoto events aren't displayed in finder windows

When trying to upload or attach iPhoto pictures, the finder item labeled iPhoto is missing events from my recently uploaded events and photos. I can see older events and upload files easily. I'm hoping this is a simple fix but does anyone have ideas on how to update this file listing in finder?
I have an iMac with snowleopard, iPhoto 11 and all of the latest software updates for both. I have also rebuilt the data base, repaired permissions etc from the iPhoto repair menu.
Any ideas? Thanks!

The newer iPhoto version is not setup for accessing the photos via the Finder. the following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto. It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3.Show File:
a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
b. On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
The above is how one should access photos for use outside of iPhoto.

Load some iphoto events onto macbook air

Having bought a MBA with limited storage I can access all my iphto events via an external hard disk and via home sharing BUT if I want to carry say all the events from 2011/12 on my MBA how can I sort of split or copy part of my library stored on my EHD
Thnaks

Just importing won't work. You would need to Export from the Library on the External to the Finder and then import.
You need two Libraries, one on the External, one on the Internal
Use iPhoto Library Manager to move the selected Events/ Albums/ Photo between them

My itunes wont sync some of my tv shows to my ipod classic. It says content cannot be played on this ipod. I bought the tv shows on itunes so they should work on my ipod.

I recently bought some new tv shows on itunes and they will not sync to my ipod classic. A alert window keeps popping up saying that these new tv shows and their content cannot be played on this ipod. I thought this was a little weird since all of my other tv shows will sync but not these ones. If someone could help me fix this problem that would be greatly appreciated. thanks

The explanation I immediately have is that you bought the HD version of your TV show.
HD videos are not able to be synced to iPod classics, which is unfortunate.
The bright side is that that means you can spend less money on your videos since standard definition (SD) videos cost almost half as much as HD.
You should still be able to play these videos on your computer, just not your iPod.
If you want a refund, you may want to try to contact Apple and they might give you iTunes store credits. You can read other posts on that and others' experience.
But the rundown is to go into iTunes, look at your Account. You can do this by going to the iTunes store and signing in, then clicking on your email address in the corner. Once you are viewing your account, scroll to your purchase history and click see all. Once you find the order, click on "Report a Problem". You should be able to email someone at Apple. In my experience with this, they are very understanding and will get you a refund or new iTunes store credits.
I hope this helped.
