IPhone not syncing all iPhoto pix even though Gigs of space left on iPhone?

Hello,
I have a 16GB iPhone.
My iPhoto Library is 2.5GB.
I've "albumed" all my photos in iPhoto.
When syncing my iPhone I've only selected a couple of albums (no more than about 2GB's worth).
For some reason, my iPhone won't accept all the pictures I have selected, even though their collective size is far less than the capacity of the phone. Some of the pictures have loaded but when I try and sync again, I get an error message stating, "No photos were copied to the iPhone because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and albums"....even though according to iTunes own "Capacity Bar", I still have 1.75GB of free space left on my iPhone.
Now, here's something else that is weird that I don't understand.
My iPhoto library is 2.5GB.
My iTunes "Capacity Bar" says that the partial amount of photos that I've already synced from iPhoto to my iPhone is 11.62GB?
How can that be? How can the same amount of pictures be 2.5GB on my computer and 11.62GB on my iPhone?
Can anybody explain this to me?
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Justin

I'm having a similar problem, I have 70MB of memory remaining, which I know isn't a lot, but I have less than 1 MB of photos I'm trying to sync, and it refuses to let me have them. I can put a 50 MB app on at this point with no problem, but this 1MB of photos keeps hitting some kind of wall.

IPhone not syncing all pictures

I've been having this problem for awhile now & thought it had something to do with the iPhone 4 because I didn't have this issue when I had the iPhone 3GS. When I try to sync all photos including videos into my iPhone - about 4,900, only about 4,200 would be transferred. Also, not all "Faces" appear on the iPhone. I've been waiting for a fix but it's been almost a year. Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, has anyone found a solution for it? I've done the following:
1. Restored my iPhone to default settings
2. Deleted & reinstalled iTunes app to latest version
3. Deleted & reinstalled iPhoto app to latest version
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

For the calendar issue: on your phone go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...scroll down to the Calendars section and tap Default calendar. What calendars are listed there and what have you selected as your default calendar?
For the photos issue: try going to Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream and turn photo stream to Off. Then reset your phone by holding the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release and wait for it to restart. (You won't lose any data by doing this.) When it has restarted go back and turn photo stream on again, take a new picture, close the camera app, make sure your phone and iPad are connected to wifi and wait 5 minutes or so to see if it syncs to your iPad this time.

ITunes suddenly not showing all my content, even though the folder does

All of the sudden, iTunes stopped showing all of my content. I have over a hundred movies and several TV shows and all of the sudden, some of the newer stuff that I recently ripped or bought from the iTunes store is no longer showing up in iTunes.
It is still in my iTunes folder however and open and accessible if I click it in Finder. This however is not a good solution as I don't know what is missing from the list and how this ridiculous issue happened.
I am furious. I spend a lot of time adding to my iTunes library for my Apple TV and suddenly, and for no reason that I can discern, content is not showing up, no matter what I do.
I recently moved my iTunes library to a 2 TB Time Capsule and took it off my internal drive, but this worked fine. For a while iTunes kept losing the library, but it no longer asks for it. It points to the right place, plays the content it chooses to see from the right place, and ignore others even though it showed them before and still has them in the library.
I am beyond confused. Can anyone help?

Check on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings that you checked "Sync only checked songs and videos" and that you checked "Sync Music" on the Music tab. Also confirm that your computer authorized for the Apple ID used to purchase this music (in Store>Authorize this computer).

IPhone not syncing all of music.

I have a 16gb iPhone 3Gs that I only use as an iPod now. I have recently been buying some new music on it and trying to sync it up and first I noticed my playlists werent syncing up. Now I do have SEVERAL songs that need to be "located" which is not big deal but most of these songs on my playlists were just bought on itunes and they are not syncing either. So then I go to all the music and notice that not even half have synced. I have almost 2000 songs in my library but only about 400 something synced. I know I do not have that much music that needs to be "located" and like I said, a lot of it is new and has been bought from iTunes and it wasnt there either. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Could someone please give me a little bit of insight.

Anyone?? Please help!!

IPhone not syncing all my photos

Hello all,
For the past many years I've kept a very large photo album in my iphoto library that contains graphic design inspiration. As of now it is is nearly 7000 photos and has never had a poblem syncing to my phone. I add to it daily and try to resync my phone every few days.
Earlier this week I went in to browse though the album to find a few files and realized that the full album hadn't been synced over to my phone. I reconnected to itunes and tried to resync with no luck. Then I went into the photo tab and told the phone to stop syncing photos, applied the change, and then told it to sync again. it deleted the photos (as I thought it would). Then I turned syncing back on and selected the correct library/album. Interestingly enough, it synced less photos than before.
Any idea on what is going on? I'm on an iphone 5 and ios7. Thanks!

I am having the same problem. I have never had an issue before, but after updating to iOS 7 on my iPhone 4s (32GB), I am unable to sync all of my photos to my iPhone from Aperture. I have 5448 photos in Aperture. iTunes recognizes this number, but when I try to sync, it says copying xx of 3661 (assuming I've removed all photos from my iPhone, and am retrying to sync).
I have tried reformatting my phone, deleting the iPod Photo Cache folder inside the Aperture library package, but nothing seems to work.
I'm running iOS 7.0.4 on the iPhone 4s (32gb) and iTunes 11.1.3 (8) on a Macbook Pro Retina 13".
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Christian

IPhone not syncing all my music

Windows XP
iTunes 11.1.3.8
iPhone 4s, iOS 7.1
2.3GB available
I have seen some posts on this, obviously many other frustrated folks who, like me, cannot get all their songs onto their phone. in iTunes my iPhone pages says 459 songs, and when I hit sync for a moment the blue bar (representing songs) gets longer, then suddenly shrinks back and no more songs load. Stuck now at 296. Tried the hard reset, as well as clearing all the songs and reloading. Everytime I try something I seem to get even fewer songs loaded (at one point had over 400, then 320, now down to 296!)
help!

I won't add to the trail of tears I have seen over this issue, nor will I pile on to Apple for the truly user-unfriendly interface. Basically what i found is that i had to clear both the phone AND the iTunes library in order to get all my songs back:
1. Copied every some in the MY MUSIC folder to a new folder somewhere other than MY MUSIC
2. went into iTunes Library, selected every song, DELETE from both library and PC
3. Sync. This empties the phone
4. Move my songs back into MY MUSIC folder (I would copy, just in case)
5. Then ADD FOLDER and add the MY MUSIC folder
6. Sync. This brought all her sings back onto the phone
It worked! All 400+ songs now on the phone.

IPhone not syncing all exchange calendar events

I'm having some issues with an iPhone running iOS 5.0.1 sycing with an SBS 2008 / Exchange 2007 server.
Email and contacts sync fine without any issues. Calendar seems to be syncing fine but is missing out some events. I have tried to look at what events are not syncing to see if there is a pattern, but it is very random and nothing that links the events in any way.
I have tried deleting the exchange account from the phone and re-adding it and have also tried adding the account on a completley different phone and it still only syncs the same calendar events, missing out a few events.
I have looked in outlook on the users computer and the events show fine. Also logged in to outlook web access and it shows the events in there without a problem.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what could be causing this?

We've found, too, that the type of calendar item can make a difference..as an example, a changed instance of a recurring appointment can be a problem..it has to do with the way Exchange handles them...their suggestion is if you have an appointment that is say, every Monday all year, at 900am, but sometimes it changes to 930, and sometimes say, to 830, you need to make 52 individual appointments rather that 1 52 instance recurring appointment...not a very attractive option. The other thing that can make a difference if is an appointment has any attachments..first, the attachment can change frequently, leading to possible consistency issues that way, and second, the size of the attachment can make the Exchange client on the iOS device "choke"...also, users need to accept every invitation they see..if they delete 1 invitation, or if a delegate deletes one invitation the item will drop off of the calendar.....also, you want to minimize the number of delegates..thexe things are summarized in a couple of best practices documents Microsoft has published...
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA011276781033.aspx
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899704/
Also, I let users know that they want to minimize the number of instances of mail clients running against exchange Server...the more clients, particularly mobile devices, the more they are looking for trouble.

IPhone not syncing all music

I recently got iTunes Match and don't understand why I can't have it enabled and sync all of the selected music I wanted. All of my music appears to be availible in the cloud as I have the option to download on my phone over WiFi which would take forever. I have tried manually syncing my music and I selected all of my playlists and only ten or less songs are syncing to the phone after sync is "completed." I have tried this with iTunes Match on and off on my phone. I'm frustrated because I got an iPhone so that this process would be easy. Any help would be appreciated.

Called Apple, somehow most of the songs on my iTunes got "unchecked" and only the few "checked" songs that were left were syncing onto my iPhone.

Why are my pictures taken with my iphone not syncing to iphoto

Up untl a few months ago, I was able to sync the pictures and videos I took using my iphone to iphoto on my mac. This is no longer the case. Can anyone please tell me how I can fix this. I even tried to go the image capture settings, but there are no options on the left for me to choose from. Help me, please. Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem, after a long discussion with Apple one of their engineers came up with the bright idea of restoring from the original backup via WiFi rather than connecting to iTunes by USB. This should give you a pretty good idea as to whether the photos are there in your backup file, as for instance it said uploading 22 of 863 photos for me, left it overnight to restore from backup via WiFi, restarted the iPhone in the morning and all of my photos had been restored. I have since backed up all photos to a very helpful Dropbox "Camera Uploads" update.
To restore from iCloud via WiFi, on your device:
Open Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Wait for the device to restart, input Time and Date Settings and Connect to WiFi.
Log in using your Apple ID and select Restore from iCloud Backup. (Ensure it is the iCloud backup with all relevant photos).
Leave device to Restore overnight and restart in the morning!

Iphone not syncing all outlook events

hi,
so my boss has an iphone that isn't syncing some appointments or changes to his outlook calendar. this happens randomly and intermittantly. when another person on the same server adds or invites to an appointment, his Mac will show it but it doesn't show on his phone. another instance was when his assistant changed an appointment on his calendar (via her computer PC) and it again showed up on his Mac but not on his iPhone. mail days to sync setting is set to "No Limit" and the calendar sync setting is set to sync events 6 months back. please help!!!

I'm a "me, too" on this, and it does seem to be an issue with iOS4, the latest update in particular. Everything was fine between my iPhone 3GS, MobileMe, and my iMac running the latest OS. I was thrilled, since I switched from a Palm Centro that gave me fits over syncing the things I needed, since I'm not in an office all day and do some traveling. It was great, but now I have duplicates and missing events. My iMac has the correct information, usually, but the phone is missing some and has lots of duplicates... what gives? Guess we're all pleading for a solution here.

IPhone not syncing all events & some undeletable

Hello,
I'm helping my Dad with a problem he's having with iCal. Since I updated his iPhone 3g to 4.0, his phone & iCal aren't syncing properly. Some events aren't syncing to iCal on his iMac yet they are undeletable on his phone.
After searching these forums, I find that he's not the only one with this problem, however, none of the other threads are resolved so I'm bringing it up again in the hopes that someone has figured this out.
By the way, he's got a simple sync: iMac (running 10.5.8) to iPhone 3g running (4.whatever is current -I just ran the latest updates this afternoon when I was over there), no 3rd party calendars or mobile me with which to contend.
This afternoon I tried all the tricks I could think of or find here; reset sync history, turned off sync calendars in iTunes/then turned them back on, ran iCalDupeDeleter, threw away the cache & preference files as directed in another thread...
Thought I had it at one point when one of the erroneous files was gone after one of the syncs... just as I was about to announce my victory, it reappeared on the phone before my eyes, yet still doesn't sync or appear in iCal on the computer.
Over the weekend I've got to try exporting then reimporting each of his calendars & checking to make sure nothing is listed under "Birthday" in Address Book.
Any ideas?

Iphone not syncing all my selected photos

I have a folder of photos in iphoto that I sync with my iphone. It contains 512 photos. Until recently, all these photos appeared on the iphone. Now only 153 of them are synced, the rest have been removed from the iphone (although they are still in the iphoto folder). Can anyone explain why these photos won't sync?
Thanks
J

plug in your phone and go into "My Computer".
Right Click on the iPhone and you have two options on how to get your pictures
1.Explore/Open your phone and manually drag and drop individual pictures into your desired folder or
2. Get Pictures and select your desired folder, then All your pictures will tranfer over to your folder automaticly.
Besides there is a step by step instruction on [how to transfer or backup iPhone photo to computer|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/Howto_transfer_or_copy_my_photos_from_iPhone_toPC].
Hope it can do you a favor.

Iphone not syncing all the time?

I'd say it's 50/50 on the latest verision of itunes, never used to happen as much on
earlier versions. The only fix is to close iTunes and then connect my 3GS.
I've tried plugging the lead into different usb ports but makes no difference.
Anyone else have this problem and found a solution?

I've tried restarting the PC and the phone. I've restarted the phone multiple times - once by holding the top button down and sliding the red slider to power off, then another time by holding the home and the top button for 10 seconds until the phone restarted itself.
I don't see any options to force a sync restart in iTunes. A lot of optoins are grayed out because it's simply stuck saying "Cancelling sync".
On my phone, if I unplug it I see "Syncing..." in the photos application. There are no photos in my camera roll and I was only adding a few images to the photo library when the phone last tried to sync.

HT204150 I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help

I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.
