Iphone and appletv sync photos using itunes from a Network Drive; times out

I have a brand new Imac and a synology network drive. The network drive contains all my photos.
When I sync my various idevices (appletv, iphone, ipad) using itunes and specify a folder on the network drive. after a few hours or next day, when I plug a device to sync with itunes, i get a msg saying the folder can't be found.
It appears that the network connection times out.
How can I stop this from happenning ?

  • How to sync Photo using iTunes

    Hi All,
    I would like to know is there any way/method to enable the "Selected folders" option in iTunes under Photos section?
    I was trying to sync come wallpaper that into my phone, but after syncing, i will get another folder call "Photo Library".
    Q: How can i remove "Photo Library" on the iPhone? and How to selected photos using iTunes and upon syncing i don't want to see"Photo Library" folder in my iPhone?
    Please share the knowlege whoever facing similiar issue.
    Thanks.

    Following are instructions: iTunes: Syncing photos
    Note that in order to see the Photos tab you first must connect the phone and select it.
    If you still don't see it, it is possible that it is off the edge of your screen to the right and you many need to use a scroll bar at the bottom.

  • Just got a new iphone and am syncing it with itunes, but it will not transfer my new music or voice memos.  Help?

    I just got a new iphone 3GS and was trying to sync it with my itunes information from my old phone.  However, I keep getting multiple error messages and after the sync is complete, I find that everything has transferred except my purchased itunes music and voice memos (I record my class lectures).  I am not sure what I can do to fix this.  Any ideas?

    The error messages are:
    -"Attempting to copy to the disk 'My Iphone' failed.  An unknown error occured (-69)."
    -"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in itunes library."
    -"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced.  An unknown error occured (13010)."

  • IPhone and iPad sync session in iTunes won't begin

    The most recent time I have attempted to sync my iPhone 4S and my iPad2 in iTunes on my Mac, the following happens.  iTunes recognizes the device, the little "turning arrow" appears and the sync window shows "Waiting to begin sync".  This persists for 15-20 seconds and then I get the message that sync was not completed because sync session did not begin. This is true for both Wi-Fi and USB attempts.   I have not had trouble previously with either device on my Mac.  What's the deal?

  • HT1386 i am new to iphone and would like to use songs from my media player as ringtones is theire a simple way to do this?i was using an android phone and all you had to do was play a song you likedand push a save as ringtone button.

  • Audio and video sync problem using itunes player

    When I play a movie using itunes it starts out okay but after a few minutes the audio and the video are no longer in sync. Anyone have a solution for this problem

    I have the same problem.
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA785GPMT-UD2H
    Chipset:
    North Bridge: AMD 785G
    South Bridge: AMD SB710
    Video: Integrated ATI Radeon HD 4200
    HDMI Audio through the HDMI out port to one of the TV HDMI in port.
    Tried on Windows 7 Pro 32bit and Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit.
    Tried with the integrated ALC889A audio device enabled and disabled (It seems that the video card drives the HDMI audio device, because it still appears in Windows even if I disable the Audio device in BIOS).
    Latest iTunes and drivers installed.
    Apple, any suggestions? I'm not having a great customer experience after buying a pair of HD movies in iTunes.

  • Sharing iTunes from a network drive--what's the best way?

    I want to put my iTunes library on a disk drive attached to an Airport Extreme Base Station so that any computer in the house can access it. The catch is I don't want to require any particular computer to be running for any other computer to be able to access music. I can do this by pointing each computer to the iTunes library on the network drive, but I understand that this can result in database corruption if more than one computer is accessing it at the same time. Is that correct, and is there another way to accomplish this? Thanks.

    If I am correct that model can be connected to the laptop via USB. I would suggest to connect it via USB to the MacBook, create a catalog on the external drive and import the catalog from your local hard drive into the catalog on your external drive. I would also make the catalog on the external drive the master catalog, the catalog where you import all your travel catalogs. Having said this, don't forget to back the external drive up regularly. Lightroom does not like external drives connected via ethernet cables.

    Hello babichanjacob
    Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

    Please advise how to resolve error message - cannot be synced because it cannot be read from or written to.

    Hello Janet,
    I would recommend this article named 'Disk cannot be read from or written to' when syncing iPod or 'Firmware update failure' error when updating or restoring iPod found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1207
    Outdated operating system software
    Make sure you have the latest updates for your operating system, which may include improvements for device connections. For example, many USB and FireWire improvements have been included in Windows Service Packs.Check for Mac OS X downloads. Check for Windows updates.
    Computer needs updates
    Make sure you have the latest updates available for your specific computer model (or components for home-built PCs). These are usually available for download on the support website for the maker of the PC (or component). Many USB updates are listed as "Intel chipset" or just "chipset" updates on PC manufacturer's support and download websites.
    Software interference
    Some software can interfere with iTunes, making it unable to write files to your iPod. Think about what software you have installed, and try disabling any add-ons that might be interfering with iTunes. Check your suspected software's documentation or contact the software maker if you need assistance with disabling the application. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software frequently causes this issue. See these steps for identifying and troubleshooting third-party security software.
    Damaged files
    If one of your music files or photos is damaged, iTunes may display one of these errors when transferring that file to the iPod. If you identify a file that is causing the error, try deleting that file and reimporting it from a backup file or from the original source. You may be able to repair files by repairing the disk (see the solutions in the next section).
    Unregistered .dll files (Windows)
    Malware or other software may cause an issue with the digital signing of Windows XP drivers. First try restoringthe iPod using the latest version of iTunes.. If you are unable to restore it or the symptom reappears, follow the steps in this document.
    Damaged disk structure
    These errors can also appear if the format of your computer's hard drive or your iPod disk is damaged.
    To repair your computer's hard disk—Mac OS X users, read this article for instructions. Windows users, search the Help system in Windows for chkdsk to get more information on checking and repairing the disk structure.
    To repair an iPod disk—Restore the iPod or iPod shuffle using the latest version of iTunes.
    Warning: Be sure to back up your data before restoring an iPod. The restore process cannot be undone. All of your songs and files will be deleted.
    Corrupt iPod photo Cache
    If you're getting the error when transferring photos to an iPod photo, try deleting the iPod photo Cache and then starting the photo sync again.
    Lost connection
    Make sure that the connections from your computer to the iPod are snug and do not wiggle or come loose during transfers. For example, if you use the wrong size dock for your iPod, it can put strain on the connectors and cause a bad connection. See these articles for more information:
    Learn about iPod Universal Dock
    iPod Dock: Specifications
    Conflict with third-party hardware
    Third-party USB or FireWire devices may also interfere with iTunes' ability to communicate with your iPod. Remove all USB and FireWire devices except the keyboard and mouse before reconnecting your iPod to the computer.
    Bad hardware
    Hardware failure or non-compliant hardware can cause these errors. This could be an issue with iPod hardware or with the cable or dock you're using, but more often it's an issue with the USB or FireWire card or interface in your computer. Some USB and FireWire interfaces just don't work very well. If you isolate the issue to the USB or FireWire interface in your computer, you may want to try a different port, get the computer serviced, or replace the card or interface with a better one.
    If you isolate the issue to an Apple-supplied cable or dock, or the iPod itself, you can get it serviced here.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Using Lightroom on a Network Drive...a workaround for Mac.

    I may have figured a workaround, sort of, to use images from a network drive in Lightroom.
    I am using a Mac and work in a marketing office. We have an image library of several thousand photos. I did a test with a few images to try and it worked.
    Take the images that you want and bring them into Lightroom. Export the catalog of images to your computer. Take that folder and save it to your networked drive. Then from the other computer you are trying to use to access the catalog, go into the networked drive and pull ONLY the catalog file out of the exported folder. Save that to your desktop. Open Lightroom and select the newly copied catalog from your desktop as your catalog to run from. It will open and say that the images are not found, and under the folder drop down on the left the folders will be listed in red. Right click on the red folder name and select the link missing file option. From there, it will allow you to navigate to your networked drive and into the Lightroom catalog folder you exported initially with the image folder there. Link to that and bam, you should be golden. I am still testing this but I am looking for input and such on if this is a viable way to work around the non-networking capablities of Lightroom. Let me know! Thanks!

    Hello Adam,
    I am already using this method to give a view to my photo library to my wife. I sync the lib from time to time. So, It is also working here.

  • I used my friend itune to transfer songs to my iphone 4 but when i am using itunes from my laptop i am not able to tranfer songs to iphone.. but from my friends laptop is working.. why and what need to do ?

    I used my friend itune to transfer songs to my iphone 4 but when i am using itunes from my laptop i am not able to tranfer songs to iphone.. .. why and what need to do ?

    I would suggest that join your iphone with iTunes and do not sync. Than in your info window of iTunes uncheck auto sync of songs and videos. Check Mark for manual selection of songs. Also uncheck sync of songs window. After this sync your iphone and manually copy your songs from your iphone through itune by opening music under your iphone icon in the left status bar and copy to your laptop music folder. I think it would help out.  I did same for myself. Try out. TC
