I would like to transefer some pictures from the Mac to the Iphone. How do i do this without losing all the pictures on the iphone through Synching?

The options in itunes seem quite limited. For instance, I have culled the pictures on the iphone down to a nice 250 or so pics i dont want to lose. But when I try to add another selected folder through itunes it wants to erase all the pictures on the iphone I have. I could create a folder out of all the pic i have on it now and then select that as well when Synching but that means any new pictures i like in the future won't be saved either if i wish to add more from the compuiter through synching.
How do i add a folder of pictures from itunes without affecting the pictures on the camera roll. This doesnt seem to be an issue when adding music manually to an ipod for instance. Wheres the openness of the system to hand-pick and create your own scenario?
Thanks for the help...
Pic-ed off.

Are they in iPhoto?
Some possibilities:
iPhoto Sharing:
IEnable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and move to the other machine. There, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running on both machines for this to work.
Use iPhoto Library Manager
Export from one Library and copy to the other mchine and import there

HT201269 Hi, I would like to remove the music from my iphone. how do I do this without losing any of it or any other information? Caroline

Hi I would like to delete music from my phone. I never use my phone for music as it takes up too ,much bstorage. It went on by accident when I last updated and now I am worried that I will lose it if I delete it! Carolinemoo

Hi,
As far as I am aware, the Music will not be deleted from your account. It should stay on your account, to download if you want it. Deleting it does not remove it from your iTunes library or Apple ID account.
Hope this helps!

I have just bought a new computer with Windows 7 and I need to transfer all my I tunes records from my Windows Xp computer. How do I do this without losing any of my songs?

I have just bought a Compaq Desktop Computer with Windows 7 but I do not want to set itup until I know how to transfer my 1800 songs from my ITUNES library on this old Windows XP Pro to a new set up on my Compaq. If anybody could please help me in simple language ( I am only a user with very little knowledge and nil jargon) I should be most grateful. Is there anybody out there to solve my dilemma?

Did you purchase all your music from iTunes, or import it from CDs?
If you've purchased all your music from iTunes, it now keeps track of your purchased items. All you would need to do is download iTunes on your new computer and log in with your Apple ID (the account you set up on iTunes). Then on the right hand side (in the bar) near the top there is a section that says "Purchased" *NEW*. There it will show you all your music and give you an option to re-download it on to your new computer. *You will need to authorize the new computer and deactivate the old one if you're not using it anymore*
If you imported your songs (or otherwise obtained), my best suggestion to you is to get a USB stick/thumb drive/external hard drive and copy all your music from your old computer on to the USB stick. (You can do it with a network, but that's assuming you have one set up already in your home).
To do that, you need to go to Music > iTunes > iTunes Library (folder) (this may not be exact as I use a Mac. I'm going from memory here). Right-click the folder and click "Copy". Go to My Computer and click on whatever drive is your external/USB stick (would be like E:\ or something). Double click on that, then right click in the next window and click Paste. This will copy your entire iTunes Library on to the separate hard drive.
Once it is finished (and with 1800 songs it will take a while, so go read a book or something), properly eject the external hard drive and plug it in to your new computer. Open Music > iTunes and do the same process to copy and paste the folder into there.
Once that is finished, open iTunes and all your music should be there. If not, go File > Import Folder and then find your iTunes Music folder and click it, then click Import and it will import them into iTunes for you.
Hope this helps and is clear enough for you. If you have any other questions, please ask and I'll do my best

Are the playlists still on the iPod? If so I can probably cook up a script to read them back into iTunes, or you can check the features of the various tools listed at the end of this user tip to see if you can find one that you want to use.

My Apple ID is only limited to Indonesia iTunes Store. I would like to buy some music from iTunes USA Store. How could I use my Indonesia-based credit card in order for me to buy music from another iTunes store? The iTunes Indonesia store is very limited.

Your image history (if I understand you properly) is stored in your catalog file, and nowhere else, and so it is only on a single drive.
Do you mean you have edited photos on multiple drives? This isn't a problem for Lightroom at all, the software doesn't care, and you can leave things just the way they are. But if it bothers you for some reason, you can move the photos to a single drive if you want. In Lightroom select the desired photos or folders (it's easier to do this using Folders) and drag them to the desired drive.
Alternative if you will be moving lots of folders: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

Hello lynnettefromsk,
The article linked below details all of the locations that you may need to change your Apple ID. This process should not affect the state of anything on the device at the time.

Hello prlipton,
If you want to stop sending reports to Apple and developers when apps crash, then go to System Preferences, click on Security & Privacy and click on Privacy. You will then see on the left side of the window an section for Diagnostics & Usage with the option to turn off sending crash data to app developers. Take a look at the article below for more information.

I downloaded pictures to iphoto yesterday of my sister's Bat mitzvah, all of them are there except 10 of them are just caution signs. How do I fix this without losing the photos?

The warning triangle means, that iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the photos and cannot show them in the browser.
Rebuild the iPhoto library to reconnect the photos. What is your iPhoto version? If it is iPhoto '11 do the following:
Back up your iPhoto library.
Hold down the command and option/ alt keys while double-clicking the iPhoto icon to launch iPhoto.
Keep holding down the keys until you are seeing the FirstAid panel.
Select "rebuild database" from the panel.
Does that bring your photos back?
If not, download iPhoto Library Manager and use the rebuild function.

Re: iPhoto has crashed on a number of occasions, but on 2 occasions also seems to delete several events, including the one I'm editing. When I go to reimport the last event, it shows them as already there. But I can't find them.
