Ipad won't sync all my photos from new mac

I have an original i-pad which used to sync all photos from my old mac - now I have a new mac and only some of the photos will sync with ipad - some photos are old and some are recent so it;s not an age thing. Have updated ipad software and that hasn't solved the problem.

What Dah•veed said.
I've had this problem for weeks now, and only just found that solution last night. There were over 400 photos that wouldn't sync. The only (unavoidable) downside is that your cache has to be rebuilt. If (like us) you have thousands of photos on your device, it can take quite sometime to rebuild. Close to an hour for each of our phones--we don't have exactly the same photos. I'm really not sure how long the second one took becuase we just let it sync and went to bed :-)
There's a kb article below, but it's as per the instructions above.

IPad won't sync all my contacts from address book?

I've sync'd my iPad a few times in an attempt to get all my contact from the Address book, but it will only sync 35 f them and not the 130+ I have in address book.
Any ideas on that one?

I have the weirdest thing going. I create a contact on my iPad, sync with my Airbook, it does not show up in the Airbook but is still in the iPad. Then I sync with my iPhone and guess what, it appears in the iPhone but still not in the Airbook.
Does not matter which ticks I click in iTunes, same thing happens over and over.
I had moved to iCloud 2 weeks ago but it started doing the same thing Mobile-Me used to do and so I turned everything off.
I can't figure this one out, heading over to the Genius bar. Last time I went with a similar problem in the Calendar they told me Lion still had a few issues and that after a certain number of syncs, the entire libraries need to be physically erased and reinstalled.

Ipad won't sync all of photo library.

I have recently bought an iPad 2. I updated it to ios5 and it does not sync my complete iPhoto library. I have ~9000 photos in my library, only about 3000 of which are being transferred to my iPad. There is plenty of space on the iPad 32GB of a 64GB iPad. Does anyone know what could be going wrong?

Similar problem on my iPad2 syncing from by iMac with all the latest updates applied. On returning from vacation, I purchased and updated iPhoto 9.2, and also updated my iPad to IOS5 and my iMac to the latest iTunes. I don't think the iTunes/iPad sync ever completed, befor or after the iPhoto update.
I edited/merged a number of Events with iPhoto 9.2, including importing the camera roll from the iPad that included photos taked on the iPad plus photos taken on a Sony camera that I had also imported to the iPad camera roll. Everything worked OK with iPhoto on the iMac, resulting in new Events that contained both iPad and camera photographs within each event: exactly what I wanted.
However, iTunes Sync of Photos was and still is a train-wreck. I tried multiple times, with multiple iPad and iTunes hangs with various "waiting" messages that never ended. I trashed and recreated the iPod Photo Cache on iTunes but it took some serious work. I actually had to use my iPod to create a new iPod Phot Cache because iTunes would not communicate with the iPad2 to get a rebuild. After the rebuild with the iPod, I then was able to toggle between no photos, single event, all events on the iPad, and things "almost" worked. Currently it looks like all or most of the photos in iTunes (19000+) show up on the iPad2 (only about 14000+ showed in the sync message on iTunes while it was syncing). However, on the iPad if I look at Photos, most of them appear OK, but in the Events view, many of the recent events that I created with iPhoto are empty, even though the photos are there for most or all of them. It looks like the Event to Photos cross-reference is damaged on the iPad. There is no problem at all with the Event to Photos cross-reference on iPhoto.

I am trying to sync a new ipad with a mac but do not want to sync the 15000 photos from my mac to the ipad - how do I prevent this?

That is normal for photos synced from a computer to a phone using iTunes. Synced photos were never placed in the Camera Roll. Additionally since iOS 8 there is no Camera Roll: http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/09/19/goodbye-camera-roll-where-to-find-your -photos-in-ios-8

You should erase all contents and setting before giving your iphone away.

Hello Partii,
It sounds like you may use a POP account for your email. With a POP account, email applications like Mail and Outlook can remove emails from the server, so when another device tries to check the server for new emails, it doesn't see any.
You may need to adjust settings in Outlook so that the emails are not removed from the server when downloaded. I found an article with more information:
When using a POP email account with multiple devices, email messages may only appear on the first device that receives them. This occurs when an email client is configured to automatically remove email from the server once an email client has received it. You can configure your email client (or clients) either to keep a copy of the email on the server, remove it after a certain number of days have passed, or keep it until you move it from your Inbox.
I recommend reviewing the full article for steps on adjusting these settings; you can find the full article here:

When I plug my Ipad2 to my Imac, it does not sync all my photos from my Itunes library. It also splits events and picks what it wants to sync. How do I get all my photos to sync with Ipad2?

When I sync my Ipad2 with my Imac, it does not sync all the photos. It seems to pick & choose what it wants to sync and also splits events. How can I set it to sync all photos so both libraries are the same?

Can't help you with the sync problem but the splitting of events was supposedly fixed with the iPhoto 9.1.3 updater.
This is from the download page:
This update fixes a problem that could cause some events merged in iPhoto to be split back into multiple events on iOS devices after being synced.
So update iPhoto to 9.1.3 and re-sync. If you already have updated to that version then I'm at a loss.

Moving all my photos from my Mac to SmugMug photo storage service.

I have joined the photo storage service SmugMug. My goal is to move every last photo I have on my Mac to SmugMug and then delete my photos from my Mac. Following SmugMug's path for loading photos, I'm taken to a page that shows the first line item hi-lited in blue which says "iPhoto". If I were to scroll down, the next line item says "Events" and the one below it says "Photos".
See example:
Question #1: Which line item do I select, "iPhoto", "Events" or "Photos"?
Question #2: How do I delete all photos permanently from my computer once I've successfully moved them to SmugMug?
Please be specific in your answers. I am old and have little computer experience.
Thank you all for your help.

I'd like to offer the suggestion that you do not erase all your photos from your computer, or..... at least get an external hard drive and park a copy of them there. I would not trust having one backup only; there are things that can go wrong and, personally, I would not trust any online server with my precious and only copy of my photos.
I can't help with the other question since I don't use iPhoto.

IPad won't sync all selected Aperture photos

I upgraded to the most recent version of Aperture (3.0.2) and synced over some photos to the iPad. Some projects and albums synced perfectly, but others only brought over a few photos from a selected set, not all of them.
When I select an Aperture project or album to sync in iTunes, the number of photos in a selected project will list to the right. Some projects list the correct number of photos, while others are listing zero, even though there are many photos in the Aperture project.
Why would iTunes not be recognizing all of the photos from a selected project or album? I ran "Update Previews" and "Reprocess Masters" for these sets, just to make sure that they were properly recognized in Aperture, but it still doesn't see them. One project has 372 photos but iTunes only sees 7 of them.
Thanks,
Stacy

I am using Aperture 3.1 and iTunes 10.1 and the syncing simply does not work. I have a fairly large library that I recently imported from iPhoto. It seems to see some smart albums and not others. It seems to see some albums and not others. I also noticed that when I moved the library from iPhoto into Aperture it did not see the folders I used to organize my photos in iPhoto. It does import the photos and albums but not the folders and they do not appear at first.
So my conclusion is there is some flakiness surrounding Aperture and both the importing and sharing features. Anyway I am now in the process of updating the previews ad suggested by others in this discussion and hope this will render my photos visible to iTunes and my ipad which they aren't now. Perhaps I should have stuck with iPhoto,

My iPad is not syncing all my photos

I just brought home my new ipad mini & synced it. Strangely a large number of my photos (about 2000) did not and will not sync to my iPad.
specs:
MacBook (10.6.8)
iPhoto (9.2.3)
iTunes (11.0.1)
The albums and/or events are there on the iPad, however most of the photos are not (partial albums/events only). The iPad seems to have randomly chosen a handful of photos from each event/album and excluded the rest. The iPad has PLEANTY of room. I have tried unsyncing & re-syncing the album/events. I have tried moving the photos and creating new albums, I have also tried deleting the ipod photo cache & re-syncing, but the photos just won't appear on my ipad. I see no rhyme or reason to which pics are synced, except that all of the partial albums are scanned photos.
PLEASE HELP!
Thank you!

If you are getting a 'cannot be displayed' or 'missing file' error, then try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

I have deleted all my photos from my mac, how can I transfer them from my iphone4 or iPad back to my mac

Can anyone help? I have by mistake deleted all of my photos on my Mac. I want to transfer the library from my iphone 4 or my ipad back to my Mac.

There is no syncing process to move synced photos from an iOS device back to a computer.
If you have only a small amount of photos you can email them to yourself.
There are third party applications available online, some free and some at cost that will pull pictures off your device and back to the computer if your number of photos is great.
In the past I have user PhoneView with great success.

Won't sync all the photos in my iPhoto album...

Hi:
I had my 2G nano set to sync all 75 pics in one iPhoto album (pics of my kids, and that's the only album I had set to sync). As of this morning, only three of the photos - the most recent three - are on my nano.
All the most up-to-date iPod software is installed: iTunes 7.4.1; and iPod 1.1.3. I have iPhoto 6.0.6, with Keyword Manager 1.3.1 (build 1154).
I've reset my nano, but haven't done any of the ohter "r's."
Many thanks in advance,
Bill from CT

Weird. I tried again to sync the photos and I noticed the long, slow process starting all over again. Not too patient anymore with this. So I clicked the button to stop syncing and it skipped something and said "syncing photos". I got excited but was skeptical. After it finished, voila! my photo folders were on my iPhone. So, I guess the answer is with a total sync it doesn't work, but when I tried to cancel a sync it worked. Again...weird.

IPad won't sync ALL of my songs

I Have over 2800 songs on my computer . I was able to sync all of those to my new iPod . But I am not able to sync all of them to my iPad . It will only sync about 800. i have checked all the same categories in iTunes but it won't sync ... Can someone help me?

Delete apps or associated data:
Settings > General > Usage Then wait for "Storage" to refresh. Be patient - on my full 64G iPad it takes some time. At the bottom of the app list press "Show All Apps". Then go through the apps manually one by one to see what you can delete.

Cannot sync ALL my photos from mackbook air to iPhone 4

I cannot sync all of my Photos from iPhoto to my new iPhone 4. It says I have free space though. I have tried: updating itunes, deleting the ipod photo cache and unsyncning then resyncing my photos. Any suggestions?

You can only sync with one computer. You need to backup the contents from the old computer to a hard drive and transfer.
Otherwise, you can use 3rd party software, but the photos are optimizd for the device and will be lower resolution than the originals.
