IPhoto for iMac and iPhoto for iPad "Integration".

Hi
I think I may have answered my own question already but as the answer is exactly what I was hoping it wouldn't be I think I'd better get it checked.
I'm on an iMac running Mavericks and the latest version iPhoto (9.5 - 902.7), I spent some time adding descriptions to a lot of the photographs and also adding quite a few keywords. I recently acquired an iPad and have installed the latest version of iPhoto for the iPad. My assumption was that if I synced my iMac iPhoto library to my iPad iPhoto library the photo descriptions and keywords (tags in the iPad version) would be replicated on the iPad.
I was staggered to find that after syncing a load of photos over to the iPad that there were no descriptions or tags/keywords transferred.
Can someone who knows about these things confirm that this is how things are supposed to work? If this is what is supposed to happen it seems to me that there is a gaping hole in the synchronisation function.
Thanks,
Quentin.

There is no syncing between iPhoto for Mac and iPhoto for iOS. The only thing they share is a name.
Gaping hole seems an understatement.

Oh, and the latest version of iPhoto is 9.5.1.

    Can I include external drives to be backed up using Time Machine?  Not only do I want to back up my IMac, but I have several extenal drives for one iPhoto, one iTunes and one for other files & documents.  How do I know if they are included in the backup process?

    Yes, if they are not exclude then TM backs them up.

  • I have updates for iMovie and iPhoto but when i try to update them i'm told To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." even though i bought it and it is on my iMac!

    I have updates for iMovie and iPhoto but when I try to update them through App Store I'm told that "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." even though I bought it and it is on my iMac! Any suggestions on what I need to do?

    Hi...
    Delete both apps using this utility >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    That will delete the apps and all associated files.
    Then re download the apps. That will download the most recent version updates included.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • Can i sync my mac pro with my mac book?  i mainly want to do this for iTunes and iPhoto?  I also have an iPhone and an iPad.

    Do you have a local network setup either wired or wireless? If so, then have both computers connected to the network. Enable File Sharing on both computers in Sharing preferences. Select the startup drive on each computer. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and check the box labeled, Shared Folder.
    You can now keep both computers in sync by using a third-party backup/sync utility that will work with a network setup such as:
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    Silver Keeper
    Retrospect
    Super Flexible File Synchronizer
    Synchronize Pro! X
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • I have multiple devices (imacs, lap tops and ipads) all connected to a NAS server.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife, and each have our own apple ID, and Itunes accounts, but all share the same media on NAS drives?

    I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives?  So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?

    You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs.  (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.)  This will prevent you from ending up with merged data.  You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

  • Does there exist in Belgium voiceover training for imac and ipad for the visually impaired?

    Does there exist in Belgium voiceover training for imac and ipad for the visually impaired?

    I think that everything that he wants to do is very doable. It would be quite a project for someone to take on for him. If it is a popular hymnbook it may well be a welcome blessing/gift of love for many others as well if made available. As I would envision the project it would require either the sacrifice of a copy of the hymnal or the availability of a loose leaf version of the hymnal, so that the individual pages could be taken apart and scanned. The scanned pages could then be assembled into a pdf document that is easily readable on many apps available for the iPad. Better still would be to research if the publishers of the hymnal have not already created an electronic version of the book in pdf format. If the publisher has not already crossed this bridge, then their permission would legally need to be secured before starting such a project of copying their compilation of hymns. Even though they may not own the rights to an old hymn which is now in the public domain, they hold the rights to the layout and composition of the printed pages of their hymnal.
    The Accessibilty settings in the iPad itself is capable of enlarging text for the visually impaired, as well as providing white text on a black background.

  • Have latest updates for mac and iPhoto.  several of "events" now show as grey squares with a plan tree, no thumbnails when scrolling over as before.  Photos show when clicking on icon but not visible as a group.  What gives?

    Have the latest updates on my iMac and iphoto.  Recently several "Event" folders have turned to grey with a palm tree in the corner.  Before there was a "key" photo to help identify the event.  The event title is still at the bottom of the square but no key photo.  When i click on the icon, the photos that it contained show up, but when closed again disappear.  How do I correct this annoyance?
    Also:  One event that contains about 12 photos has a problem---some of the photos when clicked will enlarge and show individually on the screen and print out, while others when clicken on show a black background with an exclamation mark and will not print.  Thoughts?

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?

    Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?
    If so do you know how to do it?

    It depends on what you want to do.
    You could, for example, have one AppleID for iCloud backup [and therefore message syncing, notes syncing, etc] and a second one for iTunes [music, iBooks, etc].
    But if you are looking for a way to flip everything between different appleIDs, then no.

    No problem - if you're worried about that iMac walking away, I'd purchase a Kensington lock for it: I have one for my Apple Thunderbolt Display and my MacBook. No guarantee that a dedicated thief couldn't use a pair of bolt cutters but they give me some peace of mind.

  • HT5037 I installed the iphoto library upgrader and iphoto still will not open

    I installed the iphoto library upgrader and iphoto still will not open. can anyone solve this?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards
    TD
