IPhoto 09 8.1.1 update: no longer able to sync photos with AppleTV
I have Itunes 9.0.2 (25) and just updated iPhoto 8.1.1 (419) and when I try to synch with my AppleTv 3.0.1 I get an error -50 trying to sync the photos. If I unselect photo sync it will work sync just fine. Also I am now unable to select individual events or photos. That option is now grayed out in ITunes. Did this new update change the iPhoto library format so it is not recognized by iTunes?
I have tried reinstalling both iTunes and iPhoto no help. I also rebuilt the iPhoto library
Help!
I found the problem. This is a new bug introduced in 8.1 of iPhoto.
According to iPhotoManager:
Another recently introduced problem, which appears to only happen with iPhoto 8.1, has to do with music that you've assigned to a custom slideshow. If you have created a slideshow in iPhoto, and using the "Settings" button, have assigned a song from your iTunes library to be played with that slideshow, then if that song has an ampersand (&) character anywhere in the path to the music file (this can include the name of the artist, the album, or the song itself), iPhoto does not write it out correctly to the XML file and you get an error. If you do have a music file assigned to a slideshow, you will either need to assign a different song, or remove any ampersands in the path to the song and re-select the same song in iPhoto to update it to the new location. (make sure to click "Apply" in the settings window to make your change "stick").
This was my problem. I had a song from Simon & Garfunkel in a slideshow and the Path to the song had the & that was malformed.
I removed the slideshow and I am now working.
Apple please fix this bug. I wasted over 5 hours until I went and purchased iPhoto Library Manager and it immediately pointed out the problem.

ITunes 11 No Longer Able to Sync Contacts with Google?
Hello,
I sincerely apologize if I am posting a redundant topic here; however, I was unable to find any other posted solutions.
After upgrading to iTunes 11, I noticed that there is no longer an option to sync the contacts on my iPhone to my Google Contacts.
Is this a feature that has been removed? Or is there something that I am missing with the new interface?
Any assistance that you can provide is greatly appreciated, thank you!I am so beyond fed up with this and with Apple. THANK GOD I just switched to a Galaxy S3. The whole reason I did it is because iOS 6 crossed the line, especially with the removal of the native Google apps, only to replace Maps with the biggest joke of a maps app I have ever seen in my life. Within 5 minutes of turning on my new Android phone, literally every single feature, down to the most minor detail, was better than iPhone. Every iPhone user that has checked out my new phone says the same thing. I cannot find ONE thing that is better on the iPhone. Not ONE thing.
Before activating my new awesome phone, I wanted to sync my busted old piece of junk iPhone with Google contacts so I can seamlessly transfer them to the new phone, and lo & behold, I encounter even more of Apple's BS with regard to Google.
Apple, I can promise you this... by taking this stance against Google & making things SO much harder for your users, you are driving them away from Apple in DROVES, and straight into Googles open arms. Prepare to circle the drain. Switching to Android is the best decision I've made all year. I LOVE MY NEW PHONE! -
Hard drive was replaced - no longer able to sync iphone with iTunes
Could use some help. My hard drive crashed & needed to be replaced. I did not back up my hard drive so ...
I am recreating everything again. My iTunes will not sync with my iPhone and when I try it tells me that it will basically wipe my iPhone clean of all contacts, songs, etc.
Any recommendations ?
Thanks -Launch iTunes. From the menu bar top of your screen click Store / Authorize This Computer

No longer able to sync Iphone with computer?
I recently bought a new Macbook Pro, and now itunes doesn't allow me to sync the music I have on my phone onto m computer. When I try to sync, iTunes wants to transfer things from computer to phone, instad of phone to computer. I never had this problem with older versions of iTunes on my old Macbook.
This is correct. As has been the case from the very first iphone, it will sync with one and only one computer at a time. Syncing to another computer will erase the current content form the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. -
I am no longer able to upload photos from iphoto to Facebook. The "publish" button is now "grayed out." Any suggestions?
The window doesn't automatically pop up now. When you plug the card reader in, you should see a 4th option on the lower bar of the photos app. I think it says camera. Tap on that then you can see and inport your photos.
If you are still having issues, try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. It won't hurt any data but can clear gliches. -
Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?
A brief search. Or even glancing at the "more like this" list to the right will show that this is a known problem and there is no current solution. Workaround includ saving to the desktop and importing from there or opening in Quick Look and adding to iPhoto from there

Impossible to sync photos with iPhoto
It is no longer possible to sync photos using iPhoto. With Aperture everything works well.
iPhone 3GS with iOS4 not JB, iTunes 9.2, MAC OSX 10.6.4I found the problem. This is a new bug introduced in 8.1 of iPhoto.

No longer able to delete photos
To make it easier to access the iPhoto library from multiple users on our computer, I moved the iPhoto Library to /Users/Shared/Pictures and set up permissions so that only the owner has write permission and other users are read-only (we had to do this to sync photos to multiple iPods; sharing via network doesn't allow this). However, despite the library and all subdirectories and files being owned by the user with write permission (and read permission, and execute permission for directories), that user is no longer able to delete photos in iPhoto. Whenever that user tried to delete a photo, iPhoto just beeps.
This seems strange. Why should the library directory location matter? All that should matter is file permissions, and that user has "rw" for ordinary files and "rwx" for directories. So, what's causing this trouble?As Terence mentioned the Shared folder just doesn't work anymore. Here's Apple's document on sharing a library between multiple users: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users. The disk image method does work and you can set it up in everyone's account preferences to automatically mount then they log in. It would act just like an external HD. You would have to make sure to size it to accommodate growth in the library for some time to come.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard. -
ITunes 11: No longer able to sync via USB
I updated to the latest version of ITunes. I am now no longer able to sync either my iPod Nano nor iPod Touch via USB. When trying to copy music from the computer to either devices, the progress is extremely slow for the 1st song and then stopps while tryng to sync the 2nd song.
When I downgrade to version 10.x I have no issues syncing again.Additional info:
I am able to sync my iPad 2, just not the older generation iPod nano and iPod Touch -
When I am trying to update my iPad 2 via syncing it with my PC, I get the following error message: "iPad software update server could not be contacted." Any ideas?
Try rebooting your router and or cable modem. Unplug it/them for about 30 seconds and then plug back in. See if it works then. Reboot your iPad as well.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
II'm no longer able to copy photos from email to iPa stream. The Save menu does not come up Shen I press on the image like it did before.
Hi beerexpert,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPad. If you are having unusual menu or option behaviour, you may want to try restarting/resetting your device, as outlined below:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
You may also want to double-check that you have available space, as noted here:
See how much storage you've used on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Can anyone advise how to dowload iTunes 11.1 onto a MacBook which already has 10.6.3? I get the message that 10.6.3 is the latest version when I try updating directly through the iTunes icon/app. When I go online and find and download 11.1 it does not come on my laptop. I need 11.1 to sync photos with my iPad.
Click here, buy the DVD, back up your data, install it, and run Software Update twice.

I have an iBook G4 running on OS X 10.4.11 and I just got a new ipod and can't figure out how to get it updated to be able to sync my ipod PLEASE HELP
You could go hunting for a fair price on a refurbished or restored Intel-based Mac or MacBook, as most early models of CoreDuo and Core2Duo can run Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and some much more recent.
The Apple Store's Special Deals section that is online has some fairly recent examples of hardware with an OS, original accessories as noted, power cord, and complementary one year coverage. Eligibility for extended AppleCare plans are noted & may be available for various items in the store. Subject to availability. Refurbished. Like new. The price difference can be about the same as the additional two year AppleCare plan may cost, so get that too.
Third party repaired restored or available through other channels vary in quality, quantity, condition, and may be lacking in some or most original accessories; they should include basic hardware as originally equipped and have the boot-install software disc set as intended for that build model & year specification, included.
Auction sites rarely have that much of a kit together, w/ missing discs, scruffy, extra fees, etc. On the other hand, companies that restore and repair Macs for a living and are authorized Apple service centers may have something, if you aren't in the market for something holiday new or really quick. Older models if reasonably refurbished can still shine years later.
Hopefully this helps somewhat.
Good luck & happy computing!
