IPhoto albums order display on iPhone

Using iPhoto 9.5.1 on new Macbook Air with OS UTD, and iPhone 6 using iOS 8
I know how to sort Events album orders in iPhoto View>Sort Events>by date & descending
but in my iPhone, they are all in random order.
I have synced multiple times.
How do I get them to display on my iPhone like they do in iPhoto (i.e. chronologically descending)?
Also, why is my selected Key Photo for each album lost when the albums are on the iPhone?

iPhoto  for iOS is no longer supported nor works in iOS 8 and has been dropped from further development by Apple.  Go to the iPhoto for iOS forum and look for how to migrate  photos from iPhoto to the Photos app on the iPhone.
It's a whole new ballgame now.  Here's some info on how the Photos apps now works.
Your photos are still on your phone.  With iOS 8 there is no My Photo Stream or Camera Roll any more.  The MPS has been replaced with the Recent Activity album.
The CR is replaced by the Collections mode.  The closest we can get to the Camera Roll is to turn off the Summarize Photos feature in the Settings/Photos & Camera pane and view the photos in the Collections/Moments window.
The photos will be in chronological order when scrolled up from the bottom of the window.
The Recent Activity album is showing the photos added in the last 30 days going back to 8/20 (today being 9/18).  In iPhoto on a Mac the My Photo Stream is showing more like 31 days, 8/19 to today, 8/20. It must be how the two devices calculate the last 30 days.
WARNING:  If you use iTunes to sync photos between your iPhone or iPad and your Mac do not activate the iCloud Drive. Doing so will kill the capability of using iTunes to sync with your mobile device and disable Documents & Data syncing for your iCloud account on OS X Mavericks and earlier Macs, as well as iOS 7 and earlier devices.

  • I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the up

    I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the upload process.  A prompt comes up saying "iphoto quit unexepectedly".  It always quits at the same spot, page 17.  I've tried many times.  It worked last year when I made the same type of photo album.  Anyone have any ideas?  I have a MAC OS X 10.6.8
    thanks!

    What version of iPhoto?

  • Can't get new photos added to existing iPhoto albums to sync with iPhone

    I tried talking about this in the iTunes area, but there was no response:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20660036#20660036
    I thought I'd drop by the iPhone discussion area next.
    The problem in a nutshell is that I can't get new photos added to iPhoto albums to sync with my iPhone 5. I can even unselect the albums, sync, see the albums deleted on the iPhone, select the albums again, sync, see the albums recreated - but the recreated albums don't include the photos I added yesterday.
    I don't know if this is an iTunes 11 bug, an iPhoto bug or an iPhone bug.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Yes, but which album will be empty?
    Anyway, as soon as I saw how creating albums locally on the iPhone actually worked I said to myself, "This is not reasonable" and as much as I dislike iPhoto decided to keep doing it there until that feature is improved.
    It seems like an obvious thing to improve. Then the albums can sync between the iPhone, iPhoto and other iOS devices more like "it just works" (which it doesn't do now).

  • Syncing iPhoto Albums (not Events) onto iPhone from iPhoto.

    Hi There,
    I wonder if you can help me with something. I have started to put iPhoto Albums onto my iPhone. If I sync an Event, it all works fine and I end up with the camera roll and the new Event I just synced onto iPhone.
    The problem I have is when I do this with an Album, rather than an Event. I tried this last night and for some really strange reason, when I sync only the new Photo Album to my iPhone, when the sync is finished and I look at the photos section on the iPhone, I end up with my camera roll (as it should), the new Album I have synced (as it should) but then I also get a mirrored Album which is named "Photo Album"
    Any idea why it's duplicating the Album I am syncing and naming it Photo Album? It's useless to me having 2 of the same Albums on my iPhone, one being the one I synced and the other being a duplicaton with a different name.
    Any ideas at all on this? It could just be a bug that needs fixing, as I said above, it doesn't happen when I sync an Event, only happens when I sync an Album I have created in iPhoto.
    Thanks very much for reading this and I look forward to a reply.
    Thanks,
    Adam

    Hi,
    I'll try again: Sorry.
    When I sync an Event, all seem fine and all i end up with is the Event on my iPhone. (this all seems 100 % correct to me)
    When I sync an Album, I end up with another Album on my iphone called "Photo Album" that has the same photo's within it. (Now this I understand as it's the same as iphoto, you get a MASTER FOLDER and then you can create from that)
    What my question is:
    Why when I sync an Event, I only get the Event and not the second new folder called "photo Album" showing me all the pics from the Event.
    Should it not work like the below?:
    If I had say 1 Album and 1 Event tranferred to my phone, surely I should be able to see a "photo Album" showing all the pics from BOTH THE ALBUM AND THE EVENT that I have trtansferred (LIKE A MASTER FOLDER)
    I hope that makes sense now?

  • How to transfer iPhoto album from Mac to iPhone?

    Hi all,
    I hadn't done this in a while and now that I have Mountain Lion (10.8.3) I can't find the solution as before.
    Really simple:
         I built a modest photo album in iPhoto and now I want to upload it to my iPhone.  Before, you were able to select 'sync' and it would do it, but that's not an option, or at least I don't see it.  How can I upload a completed album to my iPhone?
    Better yet, how can you upload a video from iPhoto on the Mac to the iPhone?  You can't 'share' it with PhotoStream because it won't accept video.
    Thanks much,
    SHM

    Open iTunes with the iPhone connected.  Go the Photos section for your iPhone and check the Sync Photos from checkbox and clik on Selected Albums radio button.
    Then select the album you want to sync to your iPhone.

  • Iphoto folders to display on iphone

    I have been really hating the way that the iphone organizes the pictures based on last imported and last 12 months rather than my perfectly organized folders or events. Is there anyway that iphoto can organize the photos based on events or picture folder names? Or is there anyway to delete last imported and last 12 months and enter my own categories? If anyone knows how this works please tell me.. thanks

    here is how I did it
    I created a folder for all the pictures I wanted on my iPhone and created subfolders in it to organize them
    When I sync I sync from that folder not from iPhoto
    Hope it helps

  • IPhoto albums disordered on new iPad, but correct on iPhone

    I have a MacBook Pro, intel, Snow Leopard v10.6.8, and an iPad mod MD328FD soft v5.1.1.  I'm using iPhoto '09  v8.1.2  on which I have many folders. Each Folder contains several Albums, with selected pictures from different Events.
         When I Sync my old iPhone from my iPhoto, by means of the iTunes app (v10.6.3) on my Mac, each Album is keeping the correct picture order and all Albums are kept in the correct order (as within the iPhoto Folder). My iPhone 3G S mod MC134FD v 3.1.3 (old faithful 32GB).
         Problem:     Syncing my iPad from same iPhoto, Album order is comlpletely different while picture order within each Album is correct!

  • Why won't latest iTunes sync well with latest iPhoto albums?

    After doing extensive updates of iOS, iTunes and iPhoto today, iTunes now can't see all the photos in some iPhoto albums when syncing my iPhone 4S.
    Anybody having a similar problem?  Solutions? 

    Often, this problem can be fixed if you locate and remove the iPod Photo Cache folder(s). A new one will be recreated the next time you sync Photos with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. Deleting this folder will not remove the original images from your library.

  • IPhoto & iPhone Album order is different

    I can't seem to find any answers to this, I have around 100 albums in iPhoto on my Mac, they are all synced to my iPhone, but on the phone they are just being displayed in a seeming random order.
    I have removed all the photos from the phone and started again, but they go back in the same order.
    In iPhoto the albums are actually in alphabetical order, have I've clicked the sort albums option, but this did nothing?
    Any ideas?

    Which iPhoto version?
    The order of selected iPhoto albums in the Albums window under the Photos tab for my iPhone sync preferences is reflected on my iPhone.
    I'm using the selected albums, events, and faces option so maybe this makes a difference but it shouldn't.

  • I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
    Is this iPhoto on your Mac?  Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11?  If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
    Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

  • Just purchased a new iMac and transferred all info from my old iMac. Now when using iPhoto slideshow is displays the pictures in reverse order.

    Just purchased a new iMac and after transferring all info from my old iMac.  Now when using iPhoto slideshow it  displays the pictures in reverse order.

    There's a bug in iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks that affects slideshows played directly from an album.  The slideshow will not play correctly if the photos have been sorted manually.  Any other type of sort, date, rating, keyword or title, will play correctly.
    If you need that manual sort of pictures for your slideshow create the slideshow in iPhoto's slideshow mode.

  • Pics from iPhoto Albums not all showing in iPhone tab in iTunes

    I am trying to sync several of my iPhoto albums with my iPhone. With most of my albums when I click on the photo tab in iTunes, it shows WAY less pictures than are in the real album. Does anyone know what could be causing this or how to fix it? I really want all pics from the albums I choose to move to phone.

    Apparently sometimes, for various reasons (replacement of a track in the Store with another copy, slight changes in the release identification, etc.) the link between the track and your Purchase History can break, which will result in the track not appearing as eligible for iTunes Plus upgrade even though it exists as Plus in the Store.
    Contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department using the form at the bottom of the Purchase Issues FAQ web page (there is no category specifically for this issue, so I'd suggest just picking one under the Purchases - problem area) and explain the problem to them. It may take a couple of email exchanges to get past the "form" email responses, but eventually they should work out a solution for you. You may need to provide the track name, artist and order number so they can confirm the original purchase.
    Regards.

  • Different order of iPhoto albums at iTunes

    Hi there,
    after upgrading to iOS6 and iTunes now there is the problem that the order I sorted my albums in iPhoto on my MBP is not available at iTunes. There is only an arbitrarily order of the albums thus now on iPhone and iPad I have not the order that I want :-(
    ...particularly annoying with almost 70 albums with in 5.000 photos
    Any Idea to solve this problem or is it "just" a bug?
    Many thanks

    Hi again,
    a few mintes ago I did the iPhoto update to 9.4.1, but the bug's still there

  • IPhone 4S v iPhoto Albums issue.

    Good evening!
    I would be very grateful if some kind soul out there would help me solve an issue I am having with iPhoto and my 4S.  It is totally doing my head in and yesterday, while visiting the Apple Store to address this problem, I was told I couldn't be helped! This is surely not unsolveable...so, HELP please!
    Okay, as clearly and concisely as I can.
    In iPhoto I have my albums arranged as I like them.  For example A B C D E ...etc... Basically, when I want to look at my photos on my iPhone, I like the most recent Album at the top of the list and that is how they are set up in iPhoto.
    However, when I sync my iPhone, all the Albums become rearranged on my phone into the date order they were created in.  Thus, the most recent Album will be at the bottom of the list.
    Totally different to how they are set up in iPhoto and also the PHOTOS section of iTunes(Which echoes the order in iPhoto)...
    I once spent loads of time rearranging them into order on the iPhone and all was good when I synced the phone.  However, when I created a NEW Album and synced, everything was rearranged back into 'date created' order.
    This is so frustrating.
    The kind folk at the Apple Store said it may be a Settings issue but I have had no luck in finding where that issue is and how to change it.
    I hope this all makes sense, if you need more clarifaction, please ask.
    Many thanks.

    I have seen this issue and others have reported it hers as well. I think the sync process just organizes albums according to some method not related to how you might arrange the albums in iphoto on your Mac. I dont think there is any thing you can do about it. Perhaps I am wrong though and someone else will come up with a solution. in the meantime you can leave feedback for Apple here:
