  • Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

    Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.
    It may be my own fault due to learning Aperture and playing around with the locations of the Master Files.
    The thing I don't understand is that when in iPhoto all thumbnails of all photo's are able to be enlarged / edited etc. When a thumbnail is clicked on there is no gray triangle with an exclamation mark indicating that the link to the original photo can't be found. I would have thought this was ok for syncing to take place.
    When trying to sync through iTunes to my iPad for example (after some photo's have been synced) a window comes up saying "Some of your photos, including the photo “_MG_3820.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “Mark Harlen’s iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad".
    I thought this may be due to lack of memory space but my Apple TV (which has the same issue but not the same warning window) has over over 100 free GB's so that can't be it.
    When I did a test and re imported one photo that wasn't being synced to my other devices, that photo consequently was then synced so maybe it has something to do with the path through iPhoto to the original files.
    Is there any way I can re establish these links with out having to create an entire new iPhoto library from the originals (I have a lot of albums and have done a lot of editing etc and don't and want to have to do it all again).
    I look forward to you help and advice
    Mark

    Thanks for the advice but it didn't seem to work
    I've decided to try ditching iPhoto and orgainising, syncing my photo's to all devices from Aperture
    I have so far imported over 1200 photo's (relocating and renaming the master files as well) and find that when syncing through iTunes only 209 photo's are listed. The Projects/Albums are there but some indicate that there are 0 photo's in them when I know other wise (at least according to whats happing in Aperture)
    I'm starting to suspect it may be a computer problem
    Any thoughts?
    Regards
    Mark
    PS: Just after posting this I restarted my computer, went into iTunes and my Apple TV started to sync. It was now syncing 854 photo's not 209 as before.

  • ITunes doesn't sync my iPhoto photos to my iPhone.

    iTunes doesn't sync my iPhoto photos to my iphone, it says that is missing an file.
    When I sync my iPhone with iTunes appears a messeage saying that is missing a file and it's impossible to sync the iPhoto photos.

    Was trying to fix my iphoto albums when I synced with itunes, I got a message saying that the iphone cannot sync because a required file cannot be found. I have tried restoring to original firmware, I have also tried the trouble shooting advice about ticking off the photos sync, unplugging the phone, then deleting the ipod photo cache and then reconnecting with itunes and checking the photos sync button again, all to no avail. I still can't restore my photos on my iphone4. No help still?

  • HT4847 my daughter and i logged onto same icloud and now i can see messages sent to her and vice versa.. how can i fix this?

    my daughter and i logged onto same icloud and now i can see her messages and vice versa.. how can i fix this?

    This isn't being caused by your iCloud account.  It's caused by using use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so both phones are using a different ID for iMessage).  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

  • On iphoto, my import was interrupted and now I can't exit or re-import my photos because it says that I need to wait for the previous import to finish. How can I fix that?

    As I was Importing, it kept freezing, so I unplugged my phone and now I can't exit or do anything on iPhoto because I have to wait for my non existent download to finish.

  • I downloaded the ios7 onto my Ipad2 and now I can't get online!

    I am at a loss!  I am not technically knowledgable at all.  I downloaded the ios7 onto my Ipad and now its telling me the ipad isnt connected to the server. Then I looked somewhere within the ipad itself and saw a whole list of things that said it crashed!  I'm lost...can anyone help ...immediately?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iPad device settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If still no joy...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...

  • The old version of iPhoto would not import my photos from my iPhone and now there are over 11,000 of them, how do I erase these unwanted photos?

    I had the older version of iPhoto and it was allowing me to start the import from my iPhone but would unexpetcadly quit leaving all of the photos uniported and added duplicates of each one every time I opened iPhoto so that now there are over 11,000 of them. I have the newest version now and I was hoping there would be a way to erase them but I still cannot figure it out. Does anyone know how to erase the 11,000+ unwanted photos from the program?
    Thank you
    Heather

    So, are you gettting a message at start up? If so try:
    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 a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • I accidentally transferred all my files onto my desktop and now it won't let me do anything.

    WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE.
    I accidently transferred all my files onto the desktop (I missed the folder it was supposed to go into) and now my iMac is frozen after about a minute of starting up.
    It freezes too quickly for me to be able to transfer all the files back.
    So now there are 5961 items on my desktop.
    What can I do!?

    #1 reason to keep a backup.  Human error!   
    Try booting in safe mode with the shift key.
    Wait for all the icons to appear and go to the Finder menu -> New Finder window.
    Navigate to your desktop folder in the Finder window, and Use View menu -> View by icon, and arrange by type.
    Move any applications back into your Applications folder.
    Create an untitled folder on your desktop.   Drag the rest of the items in the desktop folder to the untitles folder by doing a select all, and command-click the untitled folder, and then drag those items into the untitled folder.
    Then you should be able to reboot normally and cleanup the untitled folder.

  • HT1391 I deleted my ringtone from iTunes because I couldn't sync it to my iphone or play it in itunes through the iphone, and now I can't get it back.  I have the purchase receipt...but how do I get it back????? If I can't, can I get refund?

    This is ONE of the MANY reasons, I have held off on getting and iPhone.  Because the ONLY option in getting the music onto it, is by using itunes, instead of just being able to drag and drop.  This is annoying as F***.
    I paid for and downloaded a ringtone from the iTunes store.  It was working fine. Then I hoooked up my iphone to my bf's laptop, competely forgetting that it had already been synced to MINE, which is broken and toasted.  For some reason, it deleted everything off my phone, I spent 3 hours trying to figure out how the **** to get music back onto my iphone using itunes.  It's NOT a user friendly program, and being a computer savvy as I am.....I HATE USING IT. But unfortunately, I don't have a choice. So, I was able to get the two ringtones that I created with my free ringtone maker app BACK into my phone.  But go figure, the one that I actually paid for, I can't get back on.  It was in my itunes, and on my iphone...but had the exclmation mark beside it.  I have already gone to the support page and followed the instructions for retrieving it.  I have manually deleted it from my computer SINCE this discovery, by deleting it from itunes.  So....to make sure yall are understanding this...I tried tracking it down by searching my computer....and I couldn't find it, although it was still listened on BOTH my itunes on my laptop AND in my iphone.  I trued to manually delete it from the iphone....wouldn't work. So i manually deleted it from itunes.
    My question is this....
    HOW ON GODS GREEN EARTH DO I GET IT BACK!!!!????
    It's only $1.29 canadian, but man, this program is ******* me off to no end.
    It's stupid that Apple has completely restricted us.  -sighs gritting her teeth- I just want my ring tone back.  That's it.  I can't even figure out how to redownload it....or if I can even do that.
    Please someone help me.  I'm soooo frustrated.
    Thanks
    CER

    Never mind I fixed it. Just in case anyone else has this problem, after you reinstall iTunes you have to delete all your old music, and if you have iTunes match all the songs you have saved on itunes match will display and you just have to download them to your Macbook.

  • IPhoto downloaded photos into an event and now they don't show up. They were deleted off the camera under the assumption they were in my library now I don't have anything.  Does anyone have any useful advice?

    I downloaded photos from my camera to iPhoto 11.  They were accepted as a new event.  I deleted off the camera disk.  Now, after going back into the events folder, the photos are not there. Does anyone have some useful advice? I've lost about 200+ photos...

    You can recover the shots from the Card with an app like MediaRecover
    As for the Library:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
