IPad Photo App is full of duplicates

My iPad 2 photo app is full of duplicates and is not syncing with iPhoto on my Macbook Pro.
The old OS6 Photo app worked perfectly (and was also much nicer to look at and had more functionality - eg Places view - but I digress)
With this new photo app, If I delete a photo on Macbook Pro and sync, the photo stays on the iPad.
Any ideas?

How did you rebuild your library? By launching iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library?
You can use Duplicate Annihilator to cull out the duplicates from your library. I'd make a backup of the iPhoto Library folder just in case the results are worse than what you started with. Better safe than sorry.
Do you Twango?

IPad Photos app letterboxes 16:9 content

Is there an app that will let me view a 16:9 photo (e.g., 1920x1080 pixels) full screen on my HDTV? The iPad Photos app, when mirroring onto the TV, letterboxes such photos on top and bottom to fit into its screen, and then on the sides as well to fit the TV screen, so I end up with a photo on my TV with black all around. I want the photo to display the full width and height of my TV, since it's already the right shape.
Interestingly, the Photos app will show a 1080p video full screen (i.e., it doesn't simply mirror the iPad screen). I have not yet found an app that will do this for photos.

I discovered that the Photos app does display photos full screen, but only in slide show mode. Unfortunately in that mode you can't manually choose when to change slides. As soon as you swip the screen to advance the slide, it reverts back to plain mirroring.
I checked out several apps that play slide shows, and are designed to specifically display pictures out the HDMI port.

Is it possible to load a PDF into the ipad Photos app?

I deal with documents that then have to be sent to a specific site that only accepts .doc, .docx, pdf.
I can't e-mail them, because the site must access iPad so that the documents are correctly received and accounted for.
That site can only access the iPad's Photos, nowhere else.
Is it possible to load one of these three formats into the ipad Photos app?

Thanks Diavonex, but that doesn't work (see my question).
I can easily produces JPGs and load them into Photos, but the site in question can't access them ( it only accepts .doc, .docx, PDF).

Is there a simple iPad photo app for WIRED tether?

There are a few app such as CamCharger or Nikon WMAU that makse an interesting but cumbersome attempt at a wireless app for tether shooting. But for me I find that wireless is far too unreliable and slow. The time where it would be most useful, i.e., when shooting freehand outdoors, it is pretty much useless. In a studio, having a cord attached to the camera is not a big problem, however. This would allow much faster download of images.
There is one really simple solution that almost gets the job done: Use the iPad photo adapter which allows you to connect the camera to the iPad using the standard USB cable. When the iPad sense that a camera is connected, it automatically opens the iPad Photo app which then shows you thumbnails of everything that gets recorded on your camera SD card. Great, cheap and easy.
The problem is that if you want to actually view that image at normal size you have to select it and click on Import, then go into the Last Import album and view it there.
Does anyone know of a simple little app that automatically downloads and displays the jpeg from the card on the iPad? The basic Photo app is almost there but not quite.
Thanks for any help.
Bo

I did try that, thanks. I found one, FreezeFrame, that does work (with some bugs), but it allows only up to 55 minute intervals. I was hoping to find one with 24 hours maximum interval. I thought maybe I missed something, since it's a little tedious to check each app for the system requirements. Kudos to all the app developers out there for keeping their apps up to date, btw.

IPad Photo App that can be used to display photos

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a iPad Photo Application that will allow me to show pictures of my products to a customer instead of using a big bulky workbook. The products would be listed in different categories. Has anyone seen something like this?
Thanks!

Are you brand new to the iPad? The Photos App that comes on the iPad will do that for you. That is exactly what it is - a photo viewing app.
However, you will have to import photos from your computer to your iPad when you sync via iTunes. If you are a new Mac user, you can import photos onto your Mac in iPhoto. You can create albums or events in order to organize the photos before you sync to your computer. The iPad Photos app will not allow you to organize directly on the iPad so that's why you need to organize and categorize the photos before you sync. You can copy the photos to your computer from a flash drive, external hard drive or from your camera with a USB connection that virtually all point and shoot cameras come with when you buy them.
If you are a PC user, there are applications that will do the same thing as iPhoto ... Picasa? I don't know much about PC software but you can do a search and see what's out there.
There are any number of apps in the app store for use with photos, so you can go there and do a search as well and see if there is an app that let's you organize right on the iPad.
I apologize if I am talking down to you and you are aware of this. I merely interpreted your question as a beginner's query. Maybe I am missing your point ...?

Windows Application that syncs to iPad Photos app?

We gave my mother an iPad for Christmas. One of the things I know she wants to do with it is share her photos with people. The problem is, she's on Windows so no iPhoto to give her a means to organize all those pictures.
Because of this, they are in countless folders and sub-folders. iTunes doesn't seem to offer a very good means as selectively syncing those photos where I imagine it's support for an app like iPhoto is much better for obvious reasons.
I guess what I'm wondering is whether or not there is an app for Windows that would serve the same basic function as iPhoto and be compatible with an iPad? Now, that may mean it's something iTunes can work with directly the way it would iPhoto or it might mean there's a corresponding app on the iPad that the program syncs photos to.
I'm open to ideas here. The only thing I doubt she'd want to do is upload all her photos to the internet. For one, there are a great many of them and two she always has concerns about privacy.
Any recommendations you all can make, whether it's apps to try or just simply methods for making this whole system work better, please share them.
Two things I would add is she's using XP and she does have the iPad Camera Kit.

Strange behaviour of iPad Photos app/My Photo Stream with iOS 8.1 and Yosemite

My requirement is surely simple and commonplace, yet is proving impossible to achieve thanks to Apple's weird design of the Photos app and the way My Photo Stream works. I'm very technically savvy, but I'm quite prepared to admit I'm being stupid if someone can explain what I'm doing wrong! I have an iPad Air running iOS 8.1 and a MacBook Pro Retina with OS X 10.10 (Yosemite). I've enabled iCloud Drive on both. iPhoto on the Mac is at v9.6.
I have a selection of 109 photos from a recent holiday in a folder on my MacBook, which I would like in a folder on my iPad as a nice way to show them to friends. iTunes may work but seems so incredibly clunky and old-fashioned I hoped I could do it over the network or via the cloud. I would use (and often have used) Dropbox, which is reliable and logical but rather tedious as you have to save each photo one by one.
So, with a little research and playing around, I found that I could get them to the iPad using iPhoto on the Mac, with My Photo Stream enabled. However, it doesn't seem to work. The photos were all created yesterday so had yesterday's date (I'd removed EXIF data that contained various earlier dates).
I've just done the following test:
I deleted all photos from the iPad (using the Photos app)
On the Mac, I deleted all photos from iPhoto
In iPhoto Preferences on the Mac, I turned on “My photo stream”, with the two sub-options also enabled
I imported the 109 photos into iPhoto
On the iPad, in My Photo Stream, I saw the photos gradually appear over the next few minutes
A minute or two later, when no more seemed to coming, I found that 103 of the original 109 were in My Photo Stream. So, strangely, 6 photos were missing
Even stranger, in the “Photos” tab, under “Yesterday” 37 of them could be seen. If I understand this correctly (which I may not), that means 37 of them had been copied from the My Photo Stream to the iPad itself. Am I right? Why only 37?
On the iPad, I added a new Album called Summer 2014
I selected all 103 photos from My Photo Stream to add to the album
In the Summer 2014 album, I briefly see “103 Photos” at the bottom of the album, but this quickly changes to 66 as photos that briefly appeared now disappear, leaving only 66 left in the album
Checking in Photos/Collections/Yesterday, I find there are now 66 photos (rather than 37 as there were earlier) - the same ones that are showing in my Summer 2014 album.
If I attempt to manually add any of the missing photos to the album, nothing happens - the album refuses to allow any more than the 66 it has.
In iPhoto on the Mac, if I click on the SHARED/iCloud entry on the left, I see all 109 photos, which I think means iPhoto has correctly shared them all, so I suspect the problem is with the iPad.
Yesterday, when I was playing with this, the album allowed 68 photos. I tried deleting one and adding one of the missing photos, but it wouldn't allow this either, so I don't think it's objecting to the number of photos so much as disliking particular ones.
I've got 7.7GB free space on the iPad so I don't think it's a space issue.
Can anyone help? If it's a bug in iOS, iCloud or OS X, how can I report it, given that I'm out of my 3 months support for both my machines?
Thank you!

Well done lumacj! This is a good workaround. Forgive me if I offer a simplified version here (this works if original photos are in Photo stream):
1. In "My photo stream", tap on select at top of screen
2. Tap on each photo you want to send via WhatsApp (circle with "√" shows for each photo)
3. Tap on square box with arrow at bottom of screen (Share) - NOT "Add To"
4. Tap on "Save image(s)"
5. Check that selected photos now appear on "Camera Roll"
6. From WhatsApp, send photos as you would have normally

IPad Photo App Photo Album

On the iPhone the Photo app has a Camera Roll album and a Photo Library album. Basically the Photo Library album contains the images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac and the Camera Roll contains iPhone local images. That is what one might expect.
However, the iPad 2 does not have a Photo Library. It has the Camera Roll album similar to the iPhone and a Photo album. In contrast to the iPhone Photo Library, the iPad 2 Photo album contains the images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac PLUS the images from the iPad 2 Camera Roll album.
Anyone know why?
Does anyone else see the same thing on their iPad 2?
Anyone know how to get a Photo Library on the iPad 2 that contains only images from the iPhoto iTunes sync on the Mac?
Thanks.
Mike

The Photos album on my iPad 2 IOS 5 contains links to Camera Roll images as well as those photos sync'd with iTunes (i.e., it shows ALL images).
ITunes on my MBA has 3 albums: Last Import, Last 12 months, & Photo Library. These same albums are on my iPhone; however, my iPad 2 IOS 5 does not have the "Photo Library" album.
The "Photo Library" shows just the iTunes images from iPhoto. I see this album on the iPhone 4 IOS 5, but do not have it on the iPad 2 IOS 5. Thus the iPad 2 does not give me an album that contains just the iTunes iPhoto images.
As an aside, the iPhone 4 IOS 5 does not have the "Photos" album only the "Photo Library" - a much more useful arrangement for me.
Could you please post a screenshot of the album list on an iPad 2 IOS 5 that shows tha albums? None of the iPad 2's I have looked at have the "Photo Library" album.
Thanks
Mike

IPad Photo App with the ability to write on the image with stylus?

Is there a photo app for 4th generation iPad that allows me to take a picture and then write on the image with a stylus? I'm in the sign business and that would be ideal for on site assessments (write dimensions and notes)

Creating notes using stylus on the application is not possible on Adobe Reader Touch.
But, you can add a sticky note on the document. To add a sticky note, launch app bar, select Comments button and then select Sticky Note option and click on the point where you want you add the sticky note.

Ipad: photo app crashes while "make new stream" for icloud

HI,
I have a problem using the photo app on my ipad (with the most actual ios software IOS7.1). I would like to generate a new shared photostream. When I touch "make new stream" the app crashes and needs to be closed with "doubleklick" on the home button and close it. Otherwise it does not work again.
I already made a soft-reset, a complete reset of the ipad. I also de- and reactivated the Icloud setting.
With the same software version on my iphone it works without any problem.
Can somebody help me?
Kind regards and thank you very much!
Clear

Pleae - does anyone have any input?

Albums in Aperture 3 not showing upon IPhone/IPad "Photos" App

Hello;
Some of the Albums I have on file in Aperture 3 are not showing up on my IPhone nor IPad in the "Photos" App.
Am I missing a setting?
Thanks Mark

What happens if you select the Photos icon in the Library tab of the Inspector?

Photos Out of Sequence in Sub-Folders in iPad Photos App

I use my iPad when working with ballplayers. Specifically, I use the Photos app with sub-folders for each set of photos. I have tens of thousands of photos in a hundred or so folders. It's very important that the photo albums be in numerical order (the photos are all named numerically).
This used to work just fine, but now I am finding that, in more and more cases, photos are out of sequence.
I upgraded my iPad specifically for this function, and it's making me look unprofessional and is forcing me to have to explain around the glitches.
Is there any way to control how the Photos app sorts photos and ensure that photos are sorted by the file name and number?
This bug is on the verge of turning a valuable tool into little more than a toy.
P.S. The issue may be related to folders that have a larger number (e.g. 100-200+) of photos in each folder.

Everyone please report this to Apple; you can do so here: https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Right now, there's no dropdown selection for iOS 8, but I selected "iOS 7.1.2" and wrote this in the comments after describing the issue: "I am using iOS 8, but there's not dropdown selection for iOS 8 on the following question, so I picked iOS 7.1.2.." Also, for me, the Submit button wasn't there, but it is located to the right of where it says, "Please read Apple’s Unsolicited Idea Submission Policybefore you send us your feedback."
Hopefully the more people that report this, the more quickly they will fix this.

IPad photo app crashes when zooming into pictures

I have about 15 GB of photos on this iPad- and the photo app crashes any time I try to pinch to zoom into a picture. anyone else having this problem? what's the deal? works sometimes but crashes 2 out of three times.

Did you get any fruitful answers from an Apple Genius? Sure wouldn't mind saving myself a trip. Thanks.
Nutshell:
I've had two iPads thus far where I cannot use the Photos app because anytime I scroll it crashes.
I had my first iPad replaced since it couldn't play any video without the entire machine locking up and requiring a forced restart. (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11320267&#11320267 ) The Photos app on my first iPad would also crash anytime I attempted to scroll through my photos.
Now, the Photos app on my second, replacement iPad is behaving the same way, it always crashes when I scroll.
Observations:
• I didn't put any of the same photos back on my replacement iPad, I started with an empty Photos app which ever since only contains images that I've saved to the Photos app from other apps on the iPad, e.g. screenshots, saving images from Safari, Mail, etc.
• I did test drive the Photos app after having saved only a handful of images ( ≈ 30 imgs) and was happy to see that it DID NOT crash. Unfortunately it wasn't long after, having had saved a handful or so more images to the photo library that the app again began to crash anytime I would begin scrolling down through images.

Cannot edit photos in standard IPad photo app

I have a 1st generation IPad. I recently lost the capability to edit photos through the iPad photo standard supplied app. I was able to edit photos back in May but it no longer works since I installed the iOS 5.1.1. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks Tom. I took a look at iPhoto but unfortunately it says it is for Ipad2 and up. So that app will not help. I took a look at snapseed and that looks like it will also work. I will also check in at an Apple Stor also. Does any one else have any other suggestions?

Ipad Photo App

Almost everything i try to view my photos i can look at them for a few seconds but then the ipad restarts itself.. is this a default that a lot of people have or should i try get it fixed by apple?

HI,
Try force quitting the Photos app.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the application quits.
