HT4236 Syncing my photo library to my phone, albums out of order

Syncing my Aperture photo library to my phone from my Yosemite MacBook Pro (I also tried it with iPhoto and same store), the projects (called albums in iPhoto) are all out of order - just random.  I use a naming convention of date then name with the date in the format YYYYMMDD so even if it were to be resorted, they would be in chronological order.  They are in that order within Aperture and also on the screen in iTunes where I select which projects I wish to sync.  But then after syncing, they are all there in the Photos app, but in random order.  I'm a photographer and often need to access a photo from a session that I need to be able to find quickly and I pretty much can find what I need when it's sorted correctly.  I believe this problem only came about after a recent update of the software, which may have been with Yosemite.  Please help.  Thanks.  Steven

  • Not sure if this is the correct area but I synch my iphone and now I have a photo library on my phone and can't delete those photos and it has taken up all my storage

    I backed up my iphone to my computer and now I have a photo library on my phone with all of the photos from my computer and it has taken up all of my storage on my phone. I can not delete the photos from my phone. How do I fix this?

    Thats because you have selected to sync the pictures too in your iTunes library. You won't be able to delete these from iPhone. You will have to uncheck it under iTunes, under sync options. Or remove the pictures folder there, or move all the pictures from that folder to other location, and sync again, the pictures from your iPhone then will be gone.

  • I uploaded my photos to my computer.  I now have all my albums and photo library on my phone.  I cannot get the off my phone and cannot take pictures on my camera.

    Connect your phone back and resync except this time uncheck all the albums from itunes when you sync. This will take all the albums off your phone and clear up space on your phone.

  • I need to know all the questions below.  I had to restore my computer to original state and now even if I sign on it won't let me sync my ipad or iphone.  the message is that it is synced to another library and it could wipe out my data on the ipad.

    You need iTunes on the computer. There is no iTunes for your phone. See:

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.

  • TS1314 why do my photos show up on my iPad out of order?

    why do my photos show up on my iPad out of order? I have them organized (by numerical sequence in their file name) and they synced up on my iPad in a random order...

    On his iPad go to Settings>iCloud>Contacts>Off. When prompted to to keep the contacts on the device or delete them, choose the delete option and all of your contacts will be removed from his iPad.
    Make sure that he is no longer signed into your Apple ID in the iCloud settings and the general settings.

  • How do I delete photo library on my phone

    My memory is getting sucked up because of my photo library. And finally discovered where pictures went that I just took but not going into my camera roll. I saw a suggestion via Google and deleted my photo library AND everything else but the camera roll. I did back up everything before I did, too. But then I was blocked from adding any of my picture files until I allowed the photo library back onto my phone. And then it's back to sucking up my memory. I just got my 32GB iPhone 5 and cannot afford to get the 64GB one. But that would be wasted if all my pictures go into this sunflower box! And you cannot delete any picture, never mind the file. Please help! I don't have a lot of apps, but I've had to delete them to take a picture or shoot a short video. It's that bad!

    I went to second link. On my laptop, from sync photos from, my only choice is pictures. I do not have either of the folders the second link mentions. On my list on my laptop (Windows Vista), I was hoping Photo Stream was the same as the Photo Library as it has the same sunflower button. All this did was ADD photo stream onto my phone. But I was able to delete it. So I say again, I really want this tab/app off my phone and I cannot seem to be able to get it off of it.

  • Why does Iphone sync the photo library folder when it is not checked in itunes.

    Hi,
    I have any iPhone 4 running 4.3.3. iOS. I recently synced photos in iphoto 6 and selected the folders i wanted I wanted to sync in iTunes.  after the sync, the folders that i wanted to sync are there, but also the photo library folder is there.  I wish to not have the photo library folder there since it is just a duplication of what is in the other folders that i have asked iTunes to sync.   Any Suggestions??? 

    Well, actually it is not a duplication. The Photos app stores photos the same way that iPhoto does. All photos synced to your phone are stored in the "Photo Library". The photos you see in the various albums/folders are really pointers to the actual photos which are in your photo library. They are not duplicates, and no you cannot get rid of the Photo Library.

  • For the love of G-d, can someone please tell me how I can access my iCloud photo library from my phone

    my iCloud Drive is activated in Beta (whatever that means), photo backup enabled and all that stuff. I can't for the life of me figure out how to view photos that are already in my iCloud photo stream on my phone.

    bascially, everyone wants Apple to do a proper cloud storage option for high end media, majority people thought iCloud photo library beta was this great service purchase high storage all in the cloud, sadly the only thing it does decently is sync. If you want a real cloud photo storage option, choose another service. This is a beta so hopefully they wake up. I have NO idea what the point of selling higher tier storage options ( backup???) make any sense for a iCloud photo library user, you will certainly run out of storage on your device crippling yourself with reduce quality media rather then actually making use of the higher storage.
    just really odd, you just simply have to scratch your head on iCloud photo library and the tier cloud pricing lol it's like a joke.

  • Is there a way to delete a photo library from the phone?

    Is there a way to delete photos from the photo library so I can have more space on my phone. I have already copied the pictures to my computer, but now I want to get rid of the pictures all together on my phone. Is it possible? Please help!!!!

    Yes, you are able to remove a photo library in your albums. what you have to do is unsync the album from your phone in iTunes. Find your device in iTunes, then select the photos tab at the top of the page, uncheck the box that says sync photos, the click on apply at the bottom of the page, let it sync and then all that photo album will be removed off your phone.

  • I need to know how to delete the photo library from my phone?

    My phone has way too much on it and I realized the photo library is the issue and not sure how to delete it.

    The same way they got there, through the iTunes sync process. Under the photos tab, in iTunes, deselect the albums/folders you don't want on your phone, hit the Apply/Sync button.

  • How to un-sync the "Photo Library" album?

    Ok my iphone 4 16g is totally full & there is almost 6g of photos.  The problem seems to be with a folder titled "Photo Library" which has a double of every single photo already on the phone.
    How can I un-sync this folder so I can free up a ton of space?

    The photos in Photo Library are not duplicates of the photos in the albums (folders) synced from your phone to your computer.  The actual photos are in Photo Library; the albums only contain links to the photos in Photo Library.  The same is true for Camera Roll.  It doesn't contain duplicates of any albums you create on your phone either.  The actual photos are in Camera Roll and the albums only contain links to these photos.
    If you want to import the photos from Camera Roll to your computer and then delete them from your phone, see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  Syncing your phone doesn't touch the Camera Roll, except to include any photos there in the iPhone backup that is created/updated when you sync.

  • Problem syncing large photo library

    I have a iPad 64GB and cannot sync my iPhoto library of 7000 photos. It syncs then states then when I select the photos on the ipad it hands saying "updating library" then crashes.
    The library syncs fine to my iPhone and everything else seems to work - I also have plenty of space left on the iPad. Wierdly I can see and choose all the photos when I goto choose the background images but just cannot access them through the photo app.
    Any ideas?

    I have one iPhoto library with around 7000 photos, filled in different Albums (around 250) within other folders in iPhoto.
    I have tried resetting the iSync history, deleting the iPad iPhoto cache, resetting the iPad etc etc. I have tried to delete any corrupt looking photos and have managed to import the whole iPhoto library to the iPad by selecting to sync it when all the photos are placed in one folder.
    I run an art gallery and have different folders for each artist's work. iPhoto is a fantastic tool for this and I have found the iPhone invaluable for showing clients paintings - the iPad should be even better. So it is crucial for me to keep the folders. I have now managed to sync all the folders (and photos) by placing all my artist albums in one folder and selecting that to sync. This works. But what doesn't work is when I select the default, and just sync the entire iPhoto library with Events et al. Then it crashes whilst the Photos App is "Updating Library" after the sync. Then I am left with a malfunctioning iPad which keeps reseting with the Apple logo and spinning wheel inside.
    So I have found a work around but it is not exactly perfect - very annoying. Especially as my crappy iPhone 3GS syncs perfectly and can handle all of the folders .....although admittedly not the Events. I wonder if it is the Events that are the problem?

  • ICloud error message on iPhone saying I don't have enough space to store photos when in fact I have 1.5gb free and my photo library on my phone only has 22 photos. What's happening here and how to I fix this?

    I get an error on my iPhone saying that iCloud photo library storage has run out of space and it will stop uploading photos from my phone. However, my iCloud has 1.5gb of free storage and my photo library only has about 22 photos. So, what's happening here?

    Are you using iCloud photo library beta.
    Are any of your photos actually video.
