IPad Photo Sync never ends....

Hi there,
I tried syncing a folder containing several thousand photos a while ago and then cancelled the sync without letting it finish.
Since then I cannot sync any photos onto my iPad, even folders containing only a few photos. The itunes sync just runs and runs... The only way I can complete a sync is if I deselect photos completely.
I've tried rebooting the iPad but to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Andrew

I had the EXACT same issue with my almost-new IPAD. Spent several hours on the phone with the apple technician and even tried to restore the IPAD to factory settings. Eventually did this - disconnected the IPAD from the computer, deleted the IPOD PHOTO CACHE folder from the "pictures" folder (I am syncing to an Apple Mac) and re-tried the sync to just one folder with photos and now everything works - no infinite loop while syncing.

IPhone Sync Never Ends

When I sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes on my Window's computer, the sync ends on Step 7 and says "Waiting for items to copy." However, it never ends. I cancel the sync, and all the new content is there, but it never ends. The animation at the top shows that its working, but again, never ends. Can anyone help me figure out what is going on?

I have the same Problem, but with iMac (lion) and iPad (iOS 5) and in German .

IPad photos sync forces iPad restart

I have 9,900 photos in iPhoto.
If I add some & resync from iTunes it optimizes then syncs - seems OK.
when I start photos on the iPad it says Please wait. Updating library...
This lasts a minute or two then the screen goes black.
If I leave it alone then in a minute or two it beeps and forces an iPad restart with the apple symbol along with the non spinning version of the busy symbol.
After the reboot - if I select photos this starts all over again.
If in iTunes I turn off photo syncing and delete all the photos from the iPad, then turn syncing back on again and resync the iPad everything works fine - but this loop takes FOREVER!
Rebuiding iPhoto database now...

I found and told Apple that I have constant entries into my area Users/Kay/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/Kay Fisher's iPad/*
For instance I had 33 entries created the day I send the data to Apple that looked like:

Sync never ends

I have a new 32mb Touch. I originally synced it while on vacation with PC #1, and it worked perfectly. Now I am home, and I have attempted to sync it with PC #2.
I tried several times to sync to PC #2, and each time it would successfully transfer all (or most) of my media, but the sync process would never end.
I am using iTunes 7.6.1.9, and my Touch is version 1.1.3 with Software Upgrade.
I even went so far as to do a total restore of the Touch, but this doesn't seem to fix the problem.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Computer crashes during iPad Photo Sync.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to help my grandpa get set up on his new iPad (he's a tech-savvy grandpa, I know) but for some reason his computer crashes when trying to sync his photos with his iPad.
He's using Windows Vista, and I'm a Mac person myself so I'm not very knowledgable about Windows. I was able to get everything to properly sync to his iPad with no problems -- except photos. Music, movies, apps, all work no problem, but one of the primary reasons he wanted an iPad is to be able to carry around and show his pictures. He has about 5,000 organized and stored on his computer. When I had iTunes attempt to sync the whole folder, it would start optimizing the first 100 pictures or so when bam - blue screen of death. I'm not talking about iTunes freezing or crashing here, the whole computer crashes. It comes back up upon reboot but every single time I try to sync those pictures, it crashes. I've tried syncing individual folders with fewer pictures, but every single time it crashes.
I've done some researching online and found this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
He does have a Logitech QuickCam webcam attached to his computer. I updated the drivers with no success.
I've also tried unplugging all USB devices except the iPad, but nothing seems to work.
Anyone have any advice?
Thanks very much.

Hi.
I have a feeling this has nothing to do with how much space the iPad has left.
I am having a complete headache with synching photos and it has something to do with your updates. The original OS that came with my iPad was fine and I had many thousands of photos on the iPad (security software has been the same throughout).
With the latest update to 4.3 (and the previous one), the same photos do not synch and KILL my windows 7 laptop (hard crash to a black screen).
It is clearly something to do with the process of compressing/processing the photos. It seems as if within iTunes some other application is called to convert photos and this is done on multiple treads (I am not a computer expert so am only summising this). Somehow, windows 7 seems to be complaining that all the CPUs are at 100% all the time (I have a relatively new laptop that doesn't complain when 100% CPU is being used by any other application EXCEPT iTunes synching with the iPad).
I cannot even transfer a small directory of photos - the same photos that were able to be transferred with the original iPad software; this clearly indicates an issue with the iPad or iTunes (or likely both) updates.

Facebook & Flickr Sync NEVER ENDS

So aside from multiple dislikes of iPhoto '11, my biggest grip is that when I add pictures to an album on facebook or Flickr iPhoto never finishes. It just keeps spinning like it's syncing, and I'm talking about adding 9 photos not dozens or hundreds. I've left it and gone to work, left it over night, still going. Even worse, my pictures aren't online!
I never had any issues with iPhoto '09, but '11 has been nothing but a headache...

It works but not before losing some info. Actually, iPhone does not recocgnize the FB's photos anymore as its. I mean, when you go to the original event from which you shared your photos, originally in the "More info" tab you should see that this photo is being shared in FB and you are able to see all the comments, "I like", etc... Now, after erasing the FB account and adding it again, iPhoto download those photos as FB's and doesn't link the internal photo with the FB's ones anymore. In fact, in Facebook tab of iPhoto you will see that the photo has been downloaded from FB. Well, it is better than nothing, but not as good as it should.
Hope you understood something of what I said.

IPad Photo Sync

I copied pictures from a friends computer to my IPad using his ITunes. The pictures show up fine on my IPad. When I connect my IPad to my home computer I am not able to transfer the pictures from the IPad to my home computer. Suggestions?

If you want to transfer computer-synced photos back to a computer then there are third-party apps that you use e.g. Simple Transfer (which also has a free 'lite' version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can use your wifi network to transfer to/from your computer.

Retaining ipad photo sync settings

Hi All,
I have thousands of photos sorted into folders on a windows share. Within itunes I selected the iPad and the photos tab. I then selected the specific folders on the windows photos share and performed a sync. It took forever but worked. However when i next went to sync the iPad it had lost all the selected photos settings and had returned to the default. I then re-selected the photos re-synced and again it took forever as it deleted all photos on the iPad and strated again. This keeps happening evry time I try and sync :-(
Does anyone know if I am doing something wrong? I want to keep the settings and each time I add a new photo album just select that for syncing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
emma

My iPad backup will never end!!

I have spent over an one hour and fourty minutes on the phone will Apple about my idevice issues. My iPad will not stop backing up and is stuck on step two of the sync process!

See if you can cancel the backup in the progress screen at the top of the iTunes window. Click on the X in the window and stop the backup. If you can cancel the backup, quit iTunes, restart your computer and restart your iPad and try again. If it still doesn't work, you can try deleting your backup in iTunes and the try again.

'Do not disconnect' - syncs never end with my Nano all of a sudden

My iPod Nano (v1.3.1) syncs happily to my Mac Mini (iTunes v7.1.1) but after the sync completes, the Nano's screen still says "Do not disconnect".
"Enable disk use" is NOT checked, nor is "manually manage music".
This is a pain, since I sync my Nano every morning to get a bunch of latest podcasts, and the Mac Mini hasn't normally got a display attached to it. (Watching the Mac Mini means turning the TV on!)
I've tried the three Rs, with no effect. I think this only happened after the iTunes v7.1.1 update. Is this happening to anyone else, or just me?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I am having the same problem and it happened after the update. The only way to safely disconnect my nano from my macbook is to drag the ipod icon to the recycle bin.

IPad wont sync photos

can't get ipad to sync photos, will do the first photo in a folder but the rest are not moved/copied. error comes up saying that the **.jpg format can not be displayed or supported on my ipad. took it to the apple store, they tried the re upload of ipad software, and itunes software to both the ipad and my laptop. even replace the ipad with a newer one, (mine was a wopping 3 days old) its a 64 gig 3G wifi, they said its prob. my laptop, i find this hard to belive, as the same laptop worked with my touch 32 gig less than a couple of weeks ago (lost it and replace it finally with the ipad) any ideas?

Hi - I'm having the exact same issue. Spent over 4 hours with Apple tech support on the phone, at the end the tech told me "oh, my supervisor just handed me a note that Apple knows this is an issue and is working on it. I guess I can't help you" and that was the end of the call.
My iPad is three weeks old, it sync'd photos no problem out of the box, then I let it upgrade the os to 4.2 in iTunes and then the photo sync error immediately started to appear, during the sync I get "1 of 1 copied" when in fact there are 200 photos to sync. So, Apple, what's going on? How do we fix this? I've done the following:
- un-install and re-install iTunes on laptop
- restore iPad to factory and start over
- delete iPod Photo Cache folder
- change security on same folder to remove "Read only"
Nothing works. HELP!!
Thanks, Barb

Ipad 3th gen photo sync problem take too much space / wrong color

I am so happy after i got my 3th gen ipad i start sync 7k+ photo off my computer here problem i got and play phone tag with techsupport until now i still have this problems i wonder if anyone counter those and got tip to solve it.
1. photo size in computer and ipad not match.
my computer show 5 photo take 6mg
i try a lot photo show in computer 386mg show in itune capacity 14.5gb i check in ipad do some + n - it take around 6.6gb
i resize photo to so small it come out same problem
2. photo color show not correct.
most of my photo sync to my ipad show in green or purple color.
I find out that any photo not in sRGB and do not have iccc color problem will have this problem i can be fix by convert it to sRGB and add iccc profile but it should not be this way ..
the problem just with photo app that come with ipad, i test with adobe photo express it does the same problem color go all jack up.
as now big big problem is can't seem to get photo sync correctly without 1 problem or other .. with 32Gb hdd i can't even get all photo that show 15gb in pc
system
win 7 home 64bit with latest itune 64bit
ipad 3th gen 32gb with at&t 4glte

I'm running iOS 5.1 on my iPhone4 and my new iPad3. But I never saw this color effect on my iPhone3G or iPod2G as well. I did sync some slideshows as well, but that is done on a Mac, not a Windows PC.
What are the settings on your camera when you shoot the photos? Is the sRGB profile embedded by the camera? Any RAW formated pictures involved?
