I had a/b 7000 photos sync'd to my iPhone 3GS (16GB) from my PC...Today, all my photos are lost
I would really appreciate it if someone could give me a head's up on what to do when you iP cannot successfully sync photos... the following is my dilemma:
I had a/b 7000 photos sync'd to my iPhone 3GS (16GB, w/ 4+GB available) from my PC...Today, all my photos are lost & every time I re-sync, iTunes gets to the end of the optimization & then stops working! This incomplete sync happens if sync is for 1-photo or all!!!
Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deselect Sync Photos followed by a sync.
This will remove all photos from your iPhone that were transferred from your computer.
Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos under the Photos tab making your selection below regarding the photos you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.
If no change after this, try deleting the iPod Photo Cache from your computer.

If someone steals my iPhone and deletes all pictures, that will sync to my Mac. So then all my photos are lost! How do I safeguard against this?
If your phone (plus syncing) is the only place you keep your pictures you are asking for trouble, theft or not. Back up onto an external hard disk which is only mounted when you need it, then nothing external can erase them. Then make use of Apple's facilities for protecting your phone:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support
iCloud: Use Lost Mode
iCloud: Find My iPhone overview

I had to restore iPhoto - photos were lost - now many thumbnails show up as same photo. When opened the correct photo is there. It seems to show up as most recent edited photo. Using iPhoto 11. Any advice?
I've just had the same problem, after a repair ALL thumbnail previews were the same image replicated...
This webpage spells out how to repair thumbnails.

When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID. -
I have iphoto 08 version 7.1.5. I copied photos from recent - last import into albums. I then deleted the photos and emptied the trash. Today all the albums are empty and the photos are nowhere in the library. Have I lost them all?
OK, here are a set of screenshots with my step by step - maybe you will be able to spot where I've gone awry:
I find a photo in the Library that I will delete from an album:
I go down to my Albums and find the picture in one of them:
I hover over the pic so the little down arrow appears in the bottom right-hand corner. I click on it, then click on the Trash Can in the window that drops down:
Gone from the Album:
Gone from the Library:
In the Trash:
Whaddup with that?

Copying/transferring will not work. You need to install the software using installation files.

Hi i just got a new 11' MBA but can't sync iCal with my iPhone 3GS. Advice pls?
Disconnect your devices then reboot your computer.
Before connecting your devices again reboot your devices. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem. -
My Aperture library is suddenly empty. I think it happened because I was attempting to import a video with Prism. I did not actually figure out how to complete that and gave up. The next time I opened my computer the library of over 7000 photos was completely empty. My memory quantity has not changed however,
could this mean that the photos are still in there somewhere? My imac is over 5 years old and I just don't know where to go for help.Just to eliminate some possibilities, since you said that memory has not changed (and I'm assuming that you mean there is no more free space on your hard drive than you had before), have you looked to see if you have a filter activated?
Does your search field read "Unrated or better" or "Show All"? I'd check that first: -
Iphone 3GS 16gb itunes shuts down when attemping to sync photos
itunes ver 10.1.0.56; iphone 3gs os 4.1; after phone is connected to itunes and is recognized i can sync all other tabs except the photos tab; I can click on the photo tab and when I select the folder pictures the dialog box comes up and says itunes has stopped working; itunes even stops working if I uncheck the Sync photos from box.
Where are the photos stored on your PC? Are they in a folder on the desktop, in the My Pictures folder or in some other photo editing software?
One thing you can try is updating iTunes and deleting the iPod Photo Cache. -

IF you don't have a backup of your phone either thru icloud or iTunes, where do you expect to restore your pictures from?
No backup no recovery your pics are gone. -
Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc. Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos. Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start
I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows. Sync is unselected. It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work. It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases). If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

Syncing videos taken with iPhone 3GS to iPhoto and back to iPhone again!
Sorry,
I know this has been asked and answered many times over on this forum I still don't understand why these won't sync back?
Videos taken with iPhone 3GS. They will play on iPhone. Now synced back to iMac. Videos will play on iPhoto. They will not sync back to iPhone. Yes, the option under the iPhone in iTunes (Photos>Sync Photos From [iPhoto]>All photos and albums>Include Videos is checked.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help!Thanks,
I will give that a try. But why in the world did they put that option in the iPhone Sync menu in iTunes under the Photos tab if it does nothing at all?? -
Trouble sync'ing iCal with iPhone 3GS
Why don't some of my iCal appointments sync with my iPhone 3GS since mobile me ended? I did the "switch to iCloud" and now there are new appointments that I have put on my desktop that no longer sync over. I set up the iPhone (settings/calendar/on) to sync and applied the new settings on iTunes. This happened in the past when I tried to use the Cloud to sync appts and called applecare and the tech had me undo everything. Any ideas?
On the right hand side of the Info tab, there's a scrollbar you can use to scroll down to set syncing options for calendars, bookmarks, notes and mail accounts.
