HT4236 Syncing photos to ipad

When I try to sync photos from my iMac to my ipad through iTunes, If i select photos from iPhoto and sync, it deletes the photos on the iPad that were added earlier from the Pictures directory.  And reverse. 

I sync my ipad through itunes with one of my folder from pc. All photos gone.....
I can see the space taken up for photos is 4.7gb. But non photos show is my photo album accept photos taken from ipad.
Anyone can advise?
Thanks!

  • HT4236 Syncing Photos on iPad

    I wish when I "sync" for photos on my 3g iPad, I did not at the same time sync for videos (and probably music). I then have to go into my iPad and delete the videos I have on my computer but DO NOT want on my iPad! This seems VERY cumberson.

    Every time you sync photos to the iPad you should check all photos you want to have on the iPad when sync ends, not just the ones you want to add. The only way to delete synced photos from the iPad is to uncheck them and sync again. iTunes checks the ones you have checked with the current contents of the iPad and adds or deletes as necessary to make them match.

  • Sync Photos to iPad - Windows folder to iPad albums

    Hi,
    Would like to ask you, I want to sync Photos to iPad using Windows iTunes. My Photos are organized in folders, will iTunes convert my folders into albums in the iPads after syncing?
    Thanks.

    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.)

  • Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer

    Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer... I want to have them on my computer.
    Why isn't there a way to do this? I don't get it. Sharing photos is such an important thing I don't understand why Apple makes it so hard to do this.
    OK here is my senario:
    Recently went on a trip Hong Kong with someone... we both had iphones and took hundreds of awesome photos. Now we want to share them with eachother. Too many photos for email and I don't wish to upload to flicker/facebook/etc...
    This is what I did thinking it should work...
    1) synced photos on her iphone with her computer
    2) synced photos on MY iphone with her computer
    3) put ALL the hong kong photos in one album
    4) connected my ipad to her computer... attempted to copy photos from iphoto to ipad -- NOPE, can't be done (***?!?!)
    5) so I synced the photos (and only the photos) in the hong kong album using itunes to my ipad -- this worked -- all photos now on my ipad
    6) drove home (5 hours away) and connected ipad to my computer and attempted to import with iphoto -- NOPE, can't be done (***!?!?) Won't even show the photos.
    7) itunes wants to replace all the photos on my ipad with the photos from my computer (***?!?!)
    How are you suppose to do this?! How are you suppose to be able to share lots of photos with people?

    Photos are not copied off the iPad via iTunes.
    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • IPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?

    iPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?
    iPhoto runs and keeps trying to read the iPad photos cycling thru a lot of times eventually crashing.

    There may be a corrupted video or image file on your iPad.
    Try to download from the iPad using Image Capture instead and save the photos to a folder. If that succeeds, you can check the files for corruption before importing them to iPhoto.

  • Can't sync photos between iPad and Mac OS X since updates

    Just updated OS X and iTunes, now got message that "iTunes will no longer sync photos to iPad" - sounds like Apple is trying to force me to pay for iCloud photo sharing. Any way to avoid that? I loved the previous easy sync approach.

    Have a look at this:

  • Unable to sync photos to iPad

    Unable to sync photos to iPad since installing iOS 5

    Thanks Leonie. I removed the iPod Photo Cache and tried again, but still no luck
    Is enough space on your device for all photos?
    Where is your iPhoto Library stored? In your Pictures folder or on an external drive?
    Are the recent photos o.k.? Do they show, when you enlarge them? Can you edit them?
    Have you repaired the permissions in your iPhoto Library or repaired the library?  You can repair the iPhoto Library using the First Aid Tools:
    Try to launch into the First Aid Tools  by holding down the key combination option-command ⌥⌘ and clicking the iPhoto icon to launch iPhoto.
    Keep the two buttons firmly held down, until you are seeing the First Aid panel.
    Then select "Repair permissions".
    Repeat with "Repair database", if the first repair did not help.

  • Is anyone else having problems with syncing photos  on ipad - seems to be fragmenting the events

    Is anyone else having problems with syncing photos  on ipad - seems to be fragmenting the events

    Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
    Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
    But weird things happened after syncing.
    (1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
    (2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
    Anyone know what's going on here?
    I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
    I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
    Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
    Unsure what's going on ...

  • ONLY sync photos from iPad to iMac folder; automatically how?

    I have 50 GB of pictures in iPhoto on my iMac (10.8.4) along with an iPhone 5 and an iPad 3.
    I would like new pics from the iPhone and iPad to be automatically downloaded into the folder I have set up to get pics from those devices "iPod Photos"
    How do I do this?
    Alternatively, I would like the folder "iPod Photos" to stay sync'ed both ways but only with iPhone and iPad.
    I do not want my fat pics being sent via my 3G Vodafone account to iCloud etc while I am out and about - ONLY via WiFi when I am home.
    Is there a way to set this up?

  • Sync Photos to iPad: Yes or No?

    Quite some time ago (3-4 month but probably still under the "Lion" OS), I synced many checked Albums in iPhoto (now '11; version 9.4.2(710.42) from my iMac (now OS X 1o.8.2) to my iPad through iTunes (now 11.0.1 [12]).
    When I tried to do it now again (add a new album) I notice that there is no "SYNC' button in the "Photo" tab. However I can check the new album as before.
    All a sudden, a notice appeared that said something like : " iTunes does no longer sync Photos - Do you want to keep or remove previously synced photos?" and the oftion to keep or delete.
    How do I get future (photo) albums across to my iPad?
