IPhoto/Apple TV sync problem

Since upgrading to iTunes 9.1 and 8.1.2 my iPhoto pics no longer sync with Apple TV. I've disconnected the library and set up new connection. No luck. I'm looking for suggestions and help.

Download and install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update, which was just released today. It may be the answer to your problems:

Be sure that neither iTunes nor iPhoto is running when you install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update. After installing the update, then restart iTunes and iPhoto. By default, "All photos" is selected. Change this (it's no longer grayed out) to "Selected albums..." and you should be OK.

    "&" is not the obvious bug/answer. Not sure what went wrong as I cannot select albums and events for sync. Situation is worse for iPad and Apple TV when error 1140 message popped up even before backup get completed.

  • Apple TV sync problem

    When I start iTunes, Apple TV immediately starts to sync, but this causes my PC to go so slow as to make it unusable for anything else. Is there any way I can start iTunes without it syncing with Apple TV (apart from switching off Apple TV, which as my wife is watching it in the other room is a problem!!!)

    Are they different sizes? There was a 40GB and 160GB version.
    If one is showing half the content of the other, is this when you turn iTunes off?  If so it's because by default AppleTV will show a list of both synced content and content available to stream automatically from itunes when it's running  (unless you choose the iTunes AppleTV device option to 'show only synced items').
    Are you syncing automatically or using a custom sync?
    Also if syncing automatically content may differ a lot depending on what's been watched on each device especially if one device is used for watching more smaller items and the other for longer bigger items.

  • Apple TV, Syncing problems with pictures

    Hi all. Getting really annoyed with APPLE TV/iTunes 9. I sync all my pictures and music, with 11,000 pictures this takes hours. Once done all OK. If I shut down iTunes and reopen it my sync settings change for pictures, the setting changes to 'No Events' therefore my Apple TV now is erasing all my 11,000 pics, the second I open iTunes. Music still there and OK, pics all gone.
    Why does the sync settings keep changing on there own? Please help, mega frustrated!

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    There is currently a problem with selecting 'include all events' from the itunes drop down menu. For the time being select all the events manually from the list below the option you have been using.
    You can check all events at once by holding down the CMD key while checking any event.

  • Apple TV - Sync problems

    I have called Apple support about this, but they did not have an answer.
    Apple Tv is configured to connect to my mac which runs Itunes all the time. Has been working fine but recently purchased two movies off Apple Tv. Movies download to Apple Tv but will not sync them back to master Itunes library. Purchases are not recorded in the purchase history on apple tv nor Itunes. The ONLY way to back them up is to request the movie to be placed in downloads on Itunes.
    This change happened sometime between Dec 08 and Jan 09. Before that time, all Apple Tv purchases would store on master Itunes since I stream all movies.
    I performed all the recommended steps, including a factory reset which did not fix the problem. My theory is that when the ITunes store made changes to the DRM, something got messed up.
    I recommend that all movie purchased be made in Itunes so you can have a backup of the movie until this problem is resolved.

    I had this problem once and solved it, but I don't know if your situation is the same. I had gotten rid of my Movies folder in the iTunes Library and replace it with an alias. The alias Movies worked great EXCEPT for syncing back to iTunes from the Apple TV. So I renamed that alias something else and made sure I had a real folder in my iTunes Library named Movies. After that, all worked perfect. Check that you have a Movies folder.

  • Apple TV - Syncing Problems After purchasing TV season on ATV

    There appear to be numerous issues with ATV and syncing. However, I've yet to find anyone requesting assistance with my particular problems:
    1. I purchased a season of television episodes with my iTunes acct. on ATV. Now my MacBook fails to sync. It's stuck on the moving striped bar indicating that syncing is just initiating. A couple of times, it's stopped and an error message appears advising me that my computer is not authorized to play the television shows that are being synced back to my iTunes. This is ridiculous as I only use one iTunes account. When I "re-authorize" my computer as the message instructs, of course I am advised that my computer has already been authorized. But the episodes still fail to sync.
    2. A week before I purchased the TV episodes giving me trouble, I purchased an HD movie on ATV. That movie synced without issue back to my iTunes. But today, in the midst of attempting to deal with the sync issues on ATV, I decided to backup all of my iTunes (on my computer) on my external HD. Everything backed up with the exception of my movie. The error message I got simply said there was an error and it could not be transferred to the HD.
    I am having more and more issues with iTunes and ATV. I hope Apple gets these under control. For years, I've been a happy Apple customer, turning many other people on to Apple products. But lately I've become increasingly concerned with Apple, at least regarding their online media purchasing/rental system and its compatibility with Apple hardware.
    Thanks, in advance, for any assistance.

    Sorry Capoho for calling you the "other person" just didn't remember you screen name but am thankful for your input. I sure hope it is only an itunes problem.
    *Winston*, I tried setting up another account and brought up itunes and had to agree to terms, blah blah blah, and atv didn't come up, however, the homesharing showed up, which it doesn't on the adminstrators account (my original account) anymore, which is another issue. However, I can say this, since I have "repaired permissions" atv is acting like it did when I downloaded itunes 9.0. If I tell it to sync everthing that I wanted to it will only sync in sections. For instance, I had it sync, a couple of movies, 3 playlist and music videos, 1 tv program, and around 2000 pictures and having that download first. Yesterday, it downloaded all the pictures and then quick syncing. Last night it downloaded the tv program and the music videos and then quick syncing. It usually would download one movie and then quit syncing???? Network problem?, atv problem?, itunes Problem?
    What does that mean if in the other account atv wouldn't show up?
    Thanks

  • Apple TV  sync problems when using external drive in iTunes

    I have my iTunes library on an external drive in order to save HD space. Unfortunately the external driver some times get disconnected and I need to mount it again.
    Since iTunes can not find the songs when the drive get disconnected, all songs are marked with an exclamation mark . So far no problem as the song will play immediatelly when i click on it.
    The problem is now with the Apple TV. It seems that as soon as a song get an exclamation mark it get removed (!!!) from the Apple TV playlists. I would expect that the song is still available in Apple TV although in iTunes is marked with an exclamation mark, as this is only a temporary non availability.
    The consequence is that one song in Apple TV may or may not be available for playing in dependency of the availability of the original song and its external drive in iTunes.
    may be "its a feature", but a very annoying one..
    Alex

    I believe you created this problem at the very beginning by not letting iTune to manage your iTune folder. When this occurs iTune can only play songs when your external HD is connected.
    You mentioned you want to save HD space. The better solution will be to put the most played songs in your HD and let iTune manage the folder and backup all the other songs to your external HD. Best way to find out is to check out the most played from your list and backup the least played to your external HD. Better yet, backup all songs.

  • Sync Problem with iPod Touch and Apple TV relating to iPhoto

    I have recently recovered from a crash and has to restore everything from my time machine.
    I have an iPod touch that syncs with my itunes and therefore with my iPhoto.
    Same thing with my Apple TV syncing via itunes with my iPhoto.
    After the restore. I have this message:" itunes cannot sync photos to the Apple TV because of a problem on your computer. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
    Previously I got the same message when syncing iPod touch with iPhoto. Then I opened iPhoto package content and remove the iPod Photo cache. that solves my iPod touch sync problem.
    How can I sync with Apple TV again?

    I believe you need to reset the Sync services data. Assuming your data on the Mac is correct (or correctable), try this:
    1. If it is easy enough to do, clean up iCal. There are AppleScripts and other tools on the Internet to do this.
    2. Save a copy of you calendar. Just in case. (File, Back up iCal...)
    3. Exit iCal.
    4. Start iSync.
    5. Preferences, Reset Sync History. (If it is greyed out, wait a few minutes.)
    6. Quit iSync.
    7. Start iTunes and plug in your iPod.
    8. Select your iPod and go to the Info tab.
    9. Make sure you have the correct Calendars selected. At the bottom, under Advanced, under Replace information on this iPod, select Calendars.
    10. Sync.
    That should do it.
    Normally, the fiddling with iSync should clear things up, so you can try just that, and syncing, but since your have a messed up situation, I'd go through all these steps once.

  • Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.

    Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.  iTunes is thinking my old iphone 4 is the same phone as my iphone 5C.  When I plugged in my iphone 5C it auto synced my 5C to iTunes and it wiped my 5C and restored it to the same content as is on my iPhone 4.  This is a big problem since my 5 year old has been using the iPhone 4.  It's all Mickey Mouse and Backyardigans.  (Total photo/app/contacts loss)
    I was able to update the 5C and restore from a 3 month old backup that is actually the content from the 5C but now when I plug in my 5C it wants to "setup as new phone" or "restore from backup"  What's going on?  I'm afraid to choose either option.
    How can I get iTunes to see these devices as 2 and not one?
    Can I use my Apple ID on both phones still or is this the problem?

    They were both displaying the same name in iTunes.  I changed the name of the iPhone 4 before the 5C was plugged in but it still went ahead with syncing it to the 4's data.

  • How can I sync my IPOD Nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've already tried the sync button on iTunes and it says it is synced. I've also tried the 5 steps recommended by Apple to fix sync problems with no luck.

    How can I sync my ipod nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've tried the sync botton on iTunes and the 5 steps recommended by Apple to correct sync problems with no luck.

    How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process? 
    You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings.  Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
    Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?

  • Hi, I have problems in ordering book from iPhoto. It says "problems in getting contact with Apple Online Store" I have changed password on my Apple ID - could that be the problem ??

    Hi, I have problems in ordering book from iPhoto. It says "problems in getting contact with Apple Online Store" I have changed password on my Apple ID - could that be the problem ??

    Some additional efforts you can try:
    Go to the System/Sharing preference pane and make sure Remote Apple Events is checked.
    If it is, uncheck it and then recheck and try ordering again.

  • Sync Problem when installing two Apple TV's in the same house

    When I installed a second Apple TV, many of my ITUNES purchases, movies and songs, would not sync and I received the alert sign in Intunes AppleTV Icon to indicate the sync problem.
    To fix, simply go to store authorize computer EVEN IF THE COMPUTER IS ALREADY AUTHORIZED and, like magic, problem is instantly fixed.

    I have two ATV G2 and one ATV G1 at home with the same iTunes library. I have played two different movies in the ATVs. One interesting thing you get is that you can start one movie and pause it and then you can continue playing it in the other ATV. The iTunes controls where you pause or stop the movie.
    Agree that bandwidth is the limit here and probably the server throughput. But, so far I haven't experienced any problem.

    I have the 64G iPad non GSM model.

    Although not a final solution, I've been able to bypass that problem by first syncing only two or three faces, and then going back to sync the full iPhoto library.
    Hope this may help you!

  • When is Apple going to fix the iTunes 11 syncing problem!!!!

    After troubleshooting the iTune 11 upgrade seems to cause syncing problems for everyone. I've tried everything and my ipod will no longer sync. Help! When is Apple going to apply a fix for this?????

    My sync problem has been going on since I updated to IOS 8. I have had two telephone help calls and one Genius Bar visit. I am no further forward.
    MY iPhone and iPad will randomly fill to capacity with OTHER files requiring a complete reboot. I have disabled iCloud drive and tried reorganising and deleting files from my iTunes library. All of my devices worked almost perfectly prior to this upgrade. I now dread syncing either of my devices to see what latest iTunes problem is now present.
    I Have one simple question which no one at Apple has answered. When iTunes finds a file it doesn't like or will not sync why does it not flag it up with the reason for the problem. iTunes has done this for many years with incompatible files and missing album art work. If iTunes could only tell us why it is continually waiting for sync to start or give us a reason for our iOS device suddenly filling to capacity with OTHER files at least we would be able to do our own diagnosis and repairs. Apple need to sort out this issue soon. I'm losing patience and faith in Apple products. So no iPhone 6 upgrade for me till this gets properly sorted.
