IPad quit synching photos...
I've been very happily syncing photos from Aperture thru iTunes to my iPad. But just recently, when the sync starts copying photos I get the message "The iPad '...' cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found."
I've tried numerous things without success...
- Restored the iPad
- Deleted all photos from the iPad & then re-selected them for syncing
- Repaired permissions w/in Aperture
- Rebuilt the database w/in Aperture
I've tried syncing one small album (that I really have no interest in) and it did sync ok. I've tried syncing old iPhoto albums instead of Aperture and they sync ok. But I cannot get the desired albums/events/faces in Aperture to sync (I've tried syncing just individual albums/events/faces, thinking there was a problem in one of them, but haven't found one I want to work yet).
Recently updated to iTunes 10.1.2 -- don't think I've sync'ed changes in photo albums since that update.
Running Aperture 3.1.1.
Suggestions? Any idea what "the required file" might be? Thanks!
Deleting the iPad Photo Cache folder did the trick, as per...

You have to place the photos into sub folders and then place those folders into a main folder from which you want to sync - using iTunes. This article explains how to do it - step by step.
Syncing Photos Using iTunes -
Dear Community members,
I am unable to synch photo albums from iPad 3 to iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
In addition to Camera roll and iPod cache default albums, I have 6 other albums made from pix derived from the camera roll. Eg - Family pix in a folder, Office pix in another, Plant pixs in another, House architecture pix in another.......all also exist in the camera roll.
I have trawled the net for the last 8 hrs in vain!
I have ios5 on Ipad 3 and the latest Itunes on Windows PC.
As a precaution, I have used the windows "add pictures from...." to keep a copy in a separate folder in the windows desktop, but again it has all the pics mixed up together and not sorted as per the various albums in the ipad!
How to replicate the albums in the windows PC???
Regards
Sohal NSSync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

While it isn't as easy to just use a Mac iDevice as media storage as Android and Windows, you can add documents and such like Word, PDF and others manually in iTunes to have them sync as well.

how can I delete previously itunes synched photos from my ipad 3 now that I use the cloud instead of synching via mac/itunes?
You will need to connect your iPad to your computer, and on the Photos tab de-select those folders that you no longer want on the iPad - they can't be deleted directly on the iPad. If you no longer want any synced photos on your iPad then you can select and sync just an empty folder.

I successfully synched photos from my mac book iphoto to my new iphone 5 (icloud did not do the job). Now these photos appear on my phone in three places--iphoto app, last import, and photo library. Does that mean that they take up three times the memory? Will that affect iCloud? Sorry for the end-user questions!!
HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated. -
Messages from iPad not Synching with MacBook Pro when Powered Off
I have the new MacBook Pro (2 GHz, i7, purchased Feb 2014), 15" Retina running OSX 10.9.4. I also had an iPad3 (Retina) but just upgraded to the new iPad Air 2 weeks ago. I do not have an iPhone, but that's next. I have used the same iCloud account for all devices.
The issue:
Messages (or message conversations) that I have when using my iPad Air are not synching with the MacBook under certain conditions.
1) If my MacBook is on, there is no issue. Messages between devices (whether being composed on the iPad or MacBook) synch instantly between devices.
2) If my MacBook is sleeping, most (but I do not think all) messages sent from my iPad will synch with the MacBook when it wakes up from sleep.
3) If my MacBook was powered off and I had message conversations using my iPad while the MacBook was off, these messages do not synch with my MacBook after I turn it back on. BUT, this depends:
a) if I power on the MacBook shortly after (5-10 min) I had the message conversation on the iPad, sometimes these messages on the iPad will synch with my MacBook after I power it on.
b) If my MacBook was powered off for several hours after I had a message conversation on my iPad, and then I power on the MacBook, these conversations are not synching on the MacBook at all.
i.e Assume MacBook is powered off. I have a message conversation on my iPad at 4:30 PM. If I power on my MacBook at 4:35 PM, the message from my iPad synchs with the MacBook. However, if I power on my MacBook say at 10 PM or the next day, then the message conversation I had on the iPad DOES NOT synch with my MacBook.
Confused? So am I. To complicate matters, I did not have these issues while I had my old iPad 3. I only starting noticing it when I bought the new iPad Air two weeks ago. I do not know if this is related.
Another issue: SOME message conversations on my MacBook and iPad air now appear to get out of chronological order. In fact, on my iPad air, I received a message at 10 AM (message A) and then had several other messages with this person throughout the day on my iPad (at 11 AM, and then 2 PM). Later that evening around 10 PM, the original message (message A) was received again as a new message on my iPad (i.e. received a new message notification). Now, message A appears out of order (it shows the timestamp of 10 AM, but it displays after the messages that came at 11 AM and 2 PM). Since my MacBook was on, these messages synched with my MacBook, but were (and remain) in the proper chronological order.
Other iCloud apps (calendar, mail, FaceTime notifications, notes, keychain, Photo-stream etc. seem to be synching fine between devices). One last observation, when I bought the iPad air and restored it from the backup I made from the old iPad 3, everything restored fine from the backup except for Calendar. For whatever reason, some old calendar entries did not restore on the new iPad.
I have run a myriad of tests (sending messages to myself from both my new and old iPad (even created a new apple ID from the old iPad)) with my MacBook sleeping or powered off for varying amounts of time in order to provide the information above. I also reinstalled the operating system on my MacBook but this did not resolve the issue.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be extremely grateful. I have been in contact by phone with Apple support and have them baffled as well, but they are doing their best to help.
Thanks,
HankSTL

Synching Photos to iPhone 4 w/iTunes 10.2.1.1 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine
iTunes does not synch photos if they are not on the primary disk drive. I have all my photos on a separate hard drive on my Dell to free up space on my primary drive, but iTunes would always hang up when it came to the synching photos step when I tried to put photos on my iPhone. The synching bar kept indicating that it was doing something, and the status message was "moving photos." But two hours later I finally quit synch and found that everything synched as it should except not a single photo transferred. Moving copies of the photos I wanted on my iPhone to my primary drive's "My Pictures" directory solved this, but now I have unwanted duplicates on my system. Does anyone have a similar problem that they've solved in a more elegant way?
Hi, there alot of us suffering from this phernomonon but there is a forum topic about is already.

My ipad quit backing up because it cannot find the file. I have tried a restore and hard reset and adding itunes to another computer and putting it on there but it still will cannot add the ipad to the new computer and back up. I have an iPad (not iPad 2) and 5.01 OS. It appears that my iPad is not fully fuctional since I updated to the new OS which is when my ipad stopped backing up. I lost data too and some apps don't work anymore.
Have you previously synced photos to the iPad, as that occasionally causes the 'missing file' error. If so then try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try backing up - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314.
In terms of apps not working, if it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
I haven't connected my iPhone 4S to my Mac 10.7.3 to synch for about 1.5 months and I'm now trying to synch and it seems to be synching everything but my photos. I've closed iTunes and iPhoto and reopened them and synched again and it will not synch photos even when I press Synch on the Photos tab. Any suggestions?
Thanks.Having other post photos to a shared PhotoStream is currently only available on IOS 7 and the PC - I woudll expect a Mac iPhoto release that supprotes it soon (just a guess)
What software versions do I need to be able view and share videos, and contribute to other people's shared streams?
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 7.0 or later
PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later
AppleTV (second generation) with Apple TV Software Update 6.0 or later
If the owner of the shared stream has turned on the Public Website option and shares the link with you, you will be able to view videos and see photos and video added by all contributors from any up-to-date browser.

Inconsistent results using the "places" view on the iPad with geotagged photos
I am getting inconsistent results with geotagged photos on the iPad (both 1 and 2) OS 5.01. It seems that sometime photos will show up in the correct location on the places view others will not ( they will not show up at all). In fact I can have a geotagged photo in one folder, synch with iTunes and it will not show up in the places view and then move that same picture to a different folder (which becomes an album on the iPad) re-synch and it will now show up at the correct location in the places view. All photos show up in the album view. Everything is the latest version iTunes, iPad etc. I can also have many photos geotagged exactly to the same location (exact same coordinates) some will show up, others will not.
I have used different methods to geotag my photos. At first I was using Photoshop Elements 8 until they stopped supporting geotagging photos. Now I am using a third party application GeoSetter (excellent free application). The GPS data is clearly in the Exif data but the results are not consistent.
Any ideas?I believe I have solved this problem myself and thought others might benefit from what I found. It turns out to be what I believe as a glitch in iTunes. iTunes creates a cache of all the photos that you synch with your iPad, iPhone etc. Apparently it does not update that cache when you change the photo. At least not the Geotagging data. The file modify date was changing but that wasn't enough to cause iTunes to update the cache of the photos. I deleted the cache of all the photos and re-synched and presto now all my photos where showing up at the correct location in the iPad "places" view.
I might add that I called Apple tech support and was routed to a higher tier support person and was very disappointed with his response. He basically told me that the "place" view in the iPad and iPhone was designed to be only used with an Apple computer and Apple software and was surprised the places view was working at all with pictures synched with a Windows based machine. He also said he was unable to help me since he couldn't provide support for non-Apple products. Although I understand this to a point I think he was too quick to make this decision. The solution after all was a simple one and one I think he should have known. I would think this cache problem would happen whether I was using Apple products as well. I view this as a bug in iTunes. Apple needs to compare the modified date of the file and update the cache if it has changed. -
HT1766 access synched photos on my computer
can i access synched photos on my computer? Where are they located?
According to the heading, you came here from a page about backing up and restoring, but you asked a question about syncing. Which did you mean?
If you are asking about iTunes photo syncing, that is one-way from the computer to the iPhone/iPad. You would access the photos wherever they resided on your computer before the sync.
If you are asking about photos inside iTunes backup files of your iPhone, they are not intended to be accessed outside the context of restoring your iPhone.
If you are talking about photos taken on your iPhone that you want to access on the computer, you would transfer them from the iPhone to the computer with a suitable photo transfer program. On a Mac, that would be Image Capture (to get them into a folder) or iPhoto (to get them into your iPhoto library).
