IPhone 6, syncing photos

Just got an iPhone 6 & want to transfer the photos from my old iPhone across to the new one. They've been downloaded into iPhoto & was going to use iTunes to upload them. The option isn't available. In iTunes all I get is a grey rotating circle, not even iPhoto library to choose which albums to use. Any ideas please?

Sorting Photos in my iPhone Albums.
I'm a commercial photographer. I just upgraded to iPhone 6+ and synched my photo portfolio album thru iTunes. Yup, it scrambled ALL the photos in the album. Makes me nuts. The iPhone tries to sort in some unexplainable formula … by subject? …. by date? The Apple tech couldn't answer this. No offense. Sooooooo
Here's the solution. Build the album on your MAC in a folder. Name the folder 'iPhone Portfolio' [whatever you like]. Now name the photos all the same thing 'JoeSchmo' and add a numerical sequence beginning with 001 then .jpg  Should look like this …. JoeSchmo001.jpg Then JoeSchmo002.jpg
You can automate the renaming of your photos in Photomechanic or in a similar file management. I have 156 photos in my portfolio album. [It helps to reduce the photo size. Mine are 7mb. They open instantly].
Now synch your iPhone thru iTunes, select the album and tap Apply. It works. Sorted exactly as I designed. Knowing my portfolio and it's order is really important to me when showing a potential client. 'Can you shoot food?' Sure. Here you go. 'Can you shoot pro sports?' Sure. And so on.

  • IPhone 4 Sync Photos Tab

    When I try to sync photos to my iphone 4 it does not sync all of them. On the Sync Photo Tab it says 2511 photos but when I sync it only uploads 80 photos.

    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

    Hi
    I have maxed my memory with photos and videos so really need to transfer to laptop but when i sync and select kodak it crashes and when i choose windows media it un syncs...any ideas please?
    thank you

    Photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are not synced, they are imported.
    You need to contact Kodak regarding a problem with their app when trying to import photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.

  • My iphone 5 stopped syncing photos to FB. I've tried all the set up directions but none work.

    Iphone stopped syncing photos with Face Book. I've tried all the set up directions but none work, or don't follow what is said they will follow (no directions pop up when I select syned from iphone in pictures)

    Thanks! I called Apple, and we did a software update. While the phone now will light up and work for about 30 seconds before going dark again, the representative said I would probably get a replacement phone if I took it in. You are right - probably a hardware failure!

  • HT4236 Problem when I sync photos to my iPhone from my pc..

    Hello.
    I have a problem when I sync photos from my pc to my iPhone. I do exactly like it says here ("To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device"), but when I sync, my photos appear two times in two different folders in my Device..
    When I did it two years ago (I think) it was ok. But since then, every time my photos appear two times and I can't understand why..
    Please help

    Photos synced to your phone are not duplicated. iPhone organizes synced photos the same way iPhoto on a Mac does. All photos synced to your phone are stored in your Photos Library. The various albums/folders merely contain pointers to the actual photos, which are stored in your Photos Library, they are not duplicates, & no , you can't delete the Photo Library.
    Its always been like this.

  • TS3697 I am receiving an error message(iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previously synced to your iPhone") I am trying to download pics from my computer to my iPhone. Any ideas? Peter

    When I went to download some pics (originally taken with my iphone 4S) from my computer back to my iPhone I got the following error message: "iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previosly synced to your iPhone?"
    Coincidentally, my wife just purchased an iPhone 4S and syncs to iTunes on the same computer.
    Any ideas?
    Peter

    The "best" way to handle it, if you want to keep everything separate, is to create separate user accounts on the computer. make sure you log into your account on the computer before you attempt to sync your phone and log out when you're done using the computer.
    Though it's possible to sync both of them to the same iTunes library, and even share an account for the iTunes store, you're inviting confusion and possible data loss (as you've discovered already). Best to just use separate user accounts on the computer. That also gives you the benefit of not polluting the other persons browser favorites, contacts, etc.

  • Can't view synced photos on iPhone 5S

    The girlfriend recently upgraded her iPhone 4S to the iPhone 5S.
    The 4S was running ios7 and all photos in events and albums synced from iPhoto could be viewed.
    Since she backed up her new 5S from her 4S back up she can only view a fraction of the photos that were visible on the 4S.
    When you go into Settings- General - Usage it says they are all on her phone. Its taking up many Gigabytes of data but when u go into the photo app there are little to no photos in any albums or events.
    I have photo stream off and icould turned off in reagrds to anything photo related. Since they are all on my laptop and not on the cloud i didnt not think that has anything to do with the issue at hand.
    Nothing on the camera roll has been affected just strictly photos synced from iphoto from my laptop.
    Can anyone shine some light on the irritating siutuation???
    or is anyone having any problems like this??????

    You might try syncing again. Each time you sync Photos via iTunes, the photos on the phone are supposed to be set identical to the current photos in the iTunes settings. I would sync as follows: for the first sync, after you have connected the phone and opened iTunes, go to the Photos tab in iTunes and remove the check mark beside "Synch Photos from" and then do the sync. That should remove all of the previously synced photos from the phone. After verifying that has happened you could then change the iTunes settings to select the desired photos and sync again and see if they sync correctly.

  • Problem with some synced photos to my iphone rotating incorrectly

    I recently synced a folder of photos in My Pictures to my iPhone 4 via iTunes.  68 picture...21 were taken in a portrait rotation, the rest were landscape.  I had no tropuble with the landscape photos.  But, after the sync, 5 of the 21 portrait photos had the wrong rotation.  From my basic troubleshoot...they are not all rotated incorrectly in the same direction and I confirmed that they all have a similar resolution as at least one of the correctly oriented portrait photos from the same sync.  Editing and saving the picture directly on the iPhone is not an option because I am only given the option to save an edited photo to the Camera Roll album.  It is extremely frustrating.  Why does this process ignore the native orientation of only some of the synced photos?  I'd be less confused if it mess up all of the portrait photos.  I would very much appreciate any advice to fix this seemingly arbitrary malfunction.  Thank you.

    I'm having a problem where when I import my iPhone photos into Picasa, photos are rotated incorrectly (even when viewed in Finder). Landscape photos are upside down, portrait photos aren't rotated to portrait orientation. I suspect this has someting to do with the iPhone saving photos without rotating them based on iPhone orientation and instead adding EXIF data to indicate the orientation based on something I read online, but I don't really know. When viewing info for a portrait photo in Preview, it indicates Y resolution is less than X resolution (which is what it should be for landscape photos only), and on the TIFF tab says Orientation 1 (Normal).
    So my question is, why is it not being rotated properly in the iPhone for use on other devices? How can I fix this?
    It should be noted that important photos with iPhoto or Image Capture makes it display properly in Preview and Finder with updated Orientation information, but still not in Firefox (so... good for some software on your Mac but even still not if you intend to send the picture to anyone... MAJOR BUG ).
    BTW using iPhone 4s with latest version of iOS 5.1.1, Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
    PS VIdeo orientation is perfect.

  • I have installed Itunes 10.5 on my PC and I have turned photostream on on my Ipad2 and Iphone.  The photos sync fine but they are not showing up on my PC.   What's the problem?

    I have installed Itunes 10.5 on my PC and I have turned photostream on on my Ipad2 and Iphone.  The photos sync fine but they are not showing up on my PC.   What's the problem?  I can see my photos on my ipad and Iphone.   I want to be able to see them on my PC when I take pictures from my Iphone and Ipad.  How do I see Photostream on my PC?

    You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.

  • Automaticly sync photos from iphone to shared folder on windows server 2012 r2

    Hey,
    I'm making photo's of cars for a company and we got a server running locally. I make photo's with my iPhone and i used to use dropbox for auto syncing pictures with the dropbox cloud and access from my pc.
    Since dropbox is too slow and we got a server running with big amounts of storage i want my iPhone to sync with my server instead of my dropbox. i already got a shared folder and a network drive for this.
    Thanks in advance.
    Marc

    The slow is more than likely your cell and or network service provider however this one may help.

  • ITunes has stopped working error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS.  Why?!

    For some reason, I keep getting the "iTunes has stopped working" error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS.  I am using Windows 7 on my 64-bit computer.  iTunes will begin to optimize the photos in the folder I have directed it to (I am trying to load almost 3000 photos and videos), and it will go through optimizing all of them singularly, then get to the step where it says "optimizing" again, but does so in bigger groups.  It will get to about 2000, and then the error message "iTunes has stopped working" will pop up, and say that "Windows must close the program and will search for a solution, and if it finds one, it will notify me".  Why can't I sync these photos, and what can I do?  Thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it!

    Same problem here! Moreover, for some reason, the pictures in my iPhone 3GS somehow have been divided into 2 folders, Photos and Medialibrary. And when I open iPhone as a folder through the explorer I can see only the Photos folder, but cannot see the Medialibrary folder which stores the photos taken before updating/upgrading the iPhone and getting separated folders!!! What the hack with all of this?!!! When I connect iPhone to PC it automatically opens iTunes and starts syncronizing it, but at the process of OPTIMIZING the photos (and according to the number of photos it shows, I see that it tries to syncronize that invisible Medialibrary folder) the process suddenly stops and error message pops out Tried the sync test, tried the button DEBUG in that pop out message, but NOTHING HELPS!!! Also, when I open the Medialibrary in my iPhone, the screen get sblack all through scrolling it down, only the video clips are shown there... >.<
    So, could you, apple developers, please, explain WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS ABOUT?!!!!!! FIX IT! I am getting ****** of to spend hours at the computer and reading those lame advises which do not help at all! I have my own things to do except reading your support websites. And I payed for the product ready to use, but not a halfproduct which problems should further be solved somehow by users..
