How to sync an iphone created photo album with aperture

hello,
how can I do to sync a iPhone created Photo Album with Aperture?.
First of all, I created a new Photo Album on my iPhone (IOS 5.x), then I want it to sync with Apple Aperture 3, but Aperture created no new Album in the Project Folder. What can I do?
Best Regards
Sigi

If the album was placed on the phone by syncing photos from a computer to the phone, the way to remove it is to sync again but this time remove the checkmark in front of "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes (if you want to remove all previously synced photos) or change the selection of photos in iTunes to be synce. Each time you sync photos using iTunes it sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/photo selection in iTunes.

I recently changed my apple id and both my iphone 3Gs and Ipad 2 when synced went straight back to my old id name for my app store how do I change it to the new one and keep it that way?

Try going into your account details on iTunes, change your info there, then sync your devices.

HT201401 my iPhone 5 randomly switched itself when somebody was calling me and now won't turn on. it had 90% battery, I've tried factory reset, connecting to iTunes and nothing works. the phone is approx 18 months old so surprise surprise out of warranty.

My 5S just started doing this on Thursday: every fraction of a second or so it oscillates between connecting and disconnecting with the charger (USB or wall, doesn't matter). Since it's still under the limited warrantee, I took it to the local Mac dealer (I live in a small town w/out an Apple store) and they shipped it off. I'm waiting now for the replacement--telephonless, too!
What concerns me is that many people seem to be having this issue.
You were right to be suspicious of the Apple store employees. Once they replicated the behavior that you experienced, they should have immediatly offered to exchange your phone. Anything else, in my opinion, is unacceptable. As long as your phone is still doing it, I'd go back, ask for the manager and tell them to exchange your phone.

Cant sync music from iphone 5... When sync button is clicked starting sync appears and dissapears and nothing happens i cannot find a solution for this... Someone help me please

I Cant sync please help me... Im using iphone 5 ios 7.1... when sync button is clicked starting sync comes and nothing happens and no music on my phone... Im trying to sync my playlist in itunes... I have itunes 11.1.3.8 64-bit Windows 8

My apologies...the version is 11.1.4.62 not as stated aboive in my problem description. I'm trying again and it just finished syncing fine and my iPhone 5 is still connected to iTuns physcially with USB lightening cable and is displaying the iPhone icon top right. I clicked on it and iTunes is now "hung' or locked up. Shows to be an active running application but can't get back to it so willl have to kill with task manager. There is some kind of problem going on with the latest version of iTunes and Wndows 7 and 8.1 or something. My iPhone 5 now has a new feature that it is now asking me if I "Trust" this computer. iTunes just came "unhung" after several minutes while I was typing this. Now I am going to start the backup to this computer HP Winsows 8.1 and iTune 11.1.4.62 and see what happens. Says it is Backing up Jerrys iPhone but the Barber Pole progress bar is not turning an iTunes is hung again and I cant get back to it from this page I am typing on. Maybe it will eventually release as it did a moment ago.

How do I upload / sync movie from iPhoto to iPhone in Photos folder

I shot a short clip from my digital camera and want to share it with family through Whatsapp on my iPhone 3GS.
I downloaded the movie (.AVI extension) to iPhoto on my Macbook Pro, saved a copy on the Desktop; and using Quicktime's export feature, was able to transfer a .m4v version of the video on the 'Videos' folder of iOS. However, since Whatsapp picks up content only from the 'Photos' app, I was looking for a mechanism through which the video (preferably .AVI format) can be transfered to the 'Photos' app.
Additionally, I created a separate album on iPhoto containing just this clip. Next I tried to sync this album to my iPhone with the 'include videos' checkbox ticked, but it does not copy the video to Photos on iPhone (tried doing the same with some photos and it is working just fine).
Request if someone can provide an easy solution for this.
Regards,
Prashrash.
P.S.: Since I am a newbie, apologize in advance for any forum rules that I might have broken. Happy to be corrected / informed on the same.
BTW, have done a basic search on the articles existing in the forums to try and find an answer before posting my question. Mostly have seen many nays on older / archived posts, and hence am posting afresh once again in the hope that with the newer versions of iPhoto / iTunes, something has hopefully changed that will make my task easy! <fingers crossed>

Hello prashrash
Because when you sync a video that you have converted, it will want to go in the Videos app. A way to get around that is to email the video to yourself if the video size is small enough to send through email. Once you have received it you should be able to save it to your Camera Roll and then be able to access like you normally would.
Save a photo or video you received in Mail.

How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

Only part of my music library appears when syncing my iPhone 4

My iPhone 4 was restored by iTunes and now it will not allow me to properly and/or completely sync my phone with my iTunes. How do I solve this problem? Any help would be great as I only can play approx. 20 songs of my 2100 + library.

maybe you set it to sync custom or to sync a playlist
each ios device connected to itunes get their own sync settings
i sync iphone, ipod and ipad each sync different stuff so likely the same holds true for your old iphone and your new one

Creating photo folder

is it possible to create a new album in the photo section of the ipad from the ipad or can it only be done on the computer the ipad is syncing to?

This article says that the camera roll is backed up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079. But personally I would copy them onto my computer and back them up properly, as an iPad backup is just one big file and you can't extract individual items from it (whether there are utilities that can extract from it I don't know) - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Old IPhone USB cord not recognized when syncing

I am hoping to use my old original IPhone as an IPod. However, I cannot get it to sync because the USB cord is not recognized on the computer. I have tried it many times and on different computers. It will not sync or download photos. Can anyone help with the problem of the USB. I do not know why USB will not work. I purchased a new USB from Belkin at the Apple Store and have my original USB cord as well. I do not have any idea which of these devices could be faulty if it is the IPhone or the USB cord. Please help. Thanks.

Thanks, issue is hopfully just the cable. I have recently learned that re-furbed and pre-owned are different. And that pre-owned warranty dates do not start over with date of purchase. I recently upgraded and ordered a 16G 3GS that I found out is pre-owned. Which means my warranty date is a month off. Dont feel very comfortable with having a device that was previously owned and not re vamped. I was told that they just polish them up and put them back into box, and then re-sell. I would have spent an extra fifty dollars to get a new one if I knew that is the way it worked. I was uninformed. Could issue be with bad device? Do they go through verification to ensure that there is no issue with them?
Thanks for all you do.

If a stolen iPhone was in airplane mode will a find my iPhone passcode lock apply itself when the hone is switched off of airplane mode?

My girlfriend's iPhone was stolen whilst on holiday in London. The phone was in airplane mode and didn't appear on Find My IPhone, which was installed and enabled (all set tis correct other than airplane mode). I sent a remote passcode lock to the phone.
The next day the iPhone appeared on the map, obviously having been switched on and had airplane mode switched off. My question is, will the remote lock apply immediately the phone comes back online?
I assume their only opting at that point is to do a factory restore which would wipe all the data anyway, right?
Also, can't Apple track the IMEI number regardless of a restore and a new SIM? Or the network operator that the phone was originally connected to?

This notion that is being floated around that Apple's hands are tied due to privacy and legal concerns doesn't impress me much at all. My iPad was stolen about a month ago. I have the receipt, the serial number (from my box), and the MAC address (from my home router's log). Armed with that information it's technologically feasible to track, deauthorize, and eventually recover my device. But for reasons I have been unable to ascertain Apple refuses to provide anything like this for their customers. And as their devices become increasingly smaller, more desirable, and more expensive theft of them will also increase.
But to my point about legalities and privacy concerns: whether they are true or not, it certainly doesn't stop Barnes and Noble from blacklisting their Nooks when they are reported stolen. At least, that's what I found after buying a Nook color off craigslist. When I tried to register it online it refused. When I called in to customer support they informed me that it was a stolen device. If I wanted to remove the blacklist, they explained, simply provide the last 4 digits of the credit card, the name on the receipt, and the total dollar amount of the store along with store number where the device was purchased. If I lacked any of that information, I could simply contact the store and retreive it from their records. Since I was not the original owner, however, my option was to turn the device over to the police and hope they returned it to the rightful owner.
When I explained this scenario to Apple Care he insisted the limitation was due to privacy concerns. That defies logic, however, when one considers that it's the original owner (and only through the poilce and Apple's legal department) who must report the device stolen. And, like B&N, it's the customer who is able to provide personal information to blacklist (as well as unblacklist) a device according to his or her own volition.
I've been thinking a bit about this for some time...plenty of time to think on the couch sans iPad anway...and I've been wondering why in the world does Apple not allow users to deauthorize and blacklist iDevices through iTunes itself. At that point Apple has no involvement in the process and even the barest of legalities are irrelevant. My assumption is that Jobs has thought long and hard about these issues, including my described resolution, so it begs the question as to why Apple refuses to do anything about stolen devices. I hope one day I can ask him because that is a question I would like answered more than anything: what is the rationale for the hands-offs approach to this? I can't fathom one myself but I have to guess there is one. Apple hasn't come across to me as a callous company so I'm reluctant to attribute it to that.

Iphone deleted all phone numbers when synced with Exchange, Please Help!!

We recently received new Iphones for the Administrative staff and thought that like other Smartphones we've used in the past that syncing with Exchange would be a breeze. After doing a bit of research everything pointed towards it being a very simple process, this is the process I followed:
Open up Itunes with Iphone connected
Click your iPhone in the "Devices" section on the left
Click the "Info" tab
In the Contacts section, check "Sync contacts with" and select "Outlook"
Click "All Contacts"
Click the "Sync" button in iTunes lower-right corner
Click "Merge", so that your contacts on your iPhone are preserved
This seemed to work but there is one major problem, all of the contacts on the Iphone and the ones imported into Outlook no longer have any phone numbers associated to them. The contacts were all synced into Outlook/Exchange no problem with their respective emails but with no phone numbers at all. Unfortunately the computer which had the backup of this Iphone was recently decommissioned so I have no backup of the phone in its previous state.
Is there any way to recover the old phone numbers/contacts on the phone without having a backup of it in its previous state? I have tried the "Import Sim Contacts" button in the settings on the phone but it doesn't seem to actually do anything. There are over 100 contacts on this particular phone, some of which the phone numbers will be very difficult to retrieve again.
I have to say that I'm not very impressed that the most popular smartphone out there can't even sync with the largest email platform in the enterprise world properly. If anybody can help me retrieve those numbers some how I would be extremely appreciative.

Does the Iphone actually support 2-way sync with Outlook properly or will it erase all of the numbers on the phone every time?
If you are syncing directly with Outlook, there are options in iTunes to determine which set of contacts takes priority when duplicates are found. Personally I do not use this. I have my device set up to sync directly with the exchange server so all changes are made directly on the server.
Personally I would recommend against using Outlook as the intermediary. You will get much more consistent and reliable results if the iPhone syncs directly with the exchange server and no worries if the end user has not synced the device in days/weeks/months.

IPhone 3GS crashes Windows XP when syncing.

When I connect my iPhone to iTunes v.9.0.2 (and the previous version) my computer has a fatal error and crashes. Does anyone have any recommendations of obtaining an older version of iTunes? FYI, I would just reformat but I do not have the reboot discs and my computer is so old Acer does not produce them anymore.

Hi Sarah,
Is the PC showing a blue screen after connecting the iPhone? If it does the information in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502 may help.
Try updating any Logitech QuickCam/Webcams, Lexmark scanners, or built-in media card readers that are attached or built into your PC.

my iphone cannot open itself. they told that their is a problem on my power IC. where can i go to repair and replace the parts and how much it will coast? please help me. im in the philippines

If the device is still under warranty, take it back to Apple or whomever provides support in your country.
If it's not under warranty, take it wherever you like. Apple does not sell parts nor do they repair devices. They will offer an out of warranty replacement which is a complete, refurbished iPhone for the Out of Warranty replacement cost.
