IPhoto Photo Syncing Inconsistencies

I just got my iPhone and I've been playing around with syncing photos from iPhoto. My iPhoto library has about 7000 photos ranging in all sizes. I have found some issues with iPhoto syncing. I'm selecting albums, syncing them and noting the results on the iPhone.
I have several web gallery albums. When I select one of them and sync there are two albums in the iPhone. One is Photo Library and the other is the album. They both have the same photos. I read on these forums that iTunes will send an aggregate album down that has all the photos of all albums downloaded. Makes sense but if there are inconsistencies;
If I sync one web gallery album a corresponding Photo Library is created. Duplicate photos of the web gallery album but if I chose one regular album to sync then the Photo Library is not created. i
If I select two regular albums then I get the Photo Library which is the aggregate of both albums. This makes sense
I'm also see thumbnail issues on the album page. I have wrong photos allocated to an album. The photo existed from a previous album and is not a photo of the current album.
Sometimes an album thumbnail is not showing adjacent the album name after the sync.
I'm a little disappointed in this basic functionality not working.
I'll try rebuilding my iPhoto database.
Anyone else seeing issues like this?

It appears what is happening to me is the thumbnail sometimes not built right after the sync. I have to navigate away from the Photo area and then come back and then the thumbnail is showing up and is a thumbnail of the first photo.

  • IPhoto / Photo Stream Inconsistencies

    I'm having issues with my photo stream and photos I recently downloaded.
    I have an iMac (running OS X v10.9.5). I used my iPhone 5S, a GoPro and a Nikon D40 to download photos from a recent vacation.
    I have attached a screen shot of the Events view from iPhoto. Notice the empty "shells" which would normally contain photos. Those are all from the most recent D40 download. When I click into any of those events, it says there are no photos.
    However, if I go over to my Photo Stream (both on the iMac and on the iPhone), I see the photos from the D40 mixed in with the iPhone photos. So I know they downloaded (I got the confirmation of download at the time).
    I thought I could just grab those particular photos in the Photo Stream and drag them back to the Events on the left - essentially dumping them back on to my iMac. When I do that it asks me if I'd like to import a duplicate file, but on the side-by-side comparison the "existing" photo is blank. So it's like the system knows there is something in those empty events folders, but nothing is showing up.
    I also downloaded iCloud for Windows to my work PC, thinking I could just save them to that machine and then import to the iMac by USB. However, the Photo Stream on the Windows machine only shows 80 photos, all from several weeks ago. Essentially, that Photo Stream is not updating with the most recent photos. I checked my settings, did a restart, and followed the directions from the Apple Support pages online. Still no luck.
    After reading some help threads here, I also checked the Master folder in my iPhoto library. None of the D40 photos are there either.
    My end goal is to ensure I save those photos that appear in my Photo Stream in some form or fashion.
    Any ideas on how I can get them to appear in my Events / Photos in iPhoto?

    What version of iPhoto are you running?
    Do you have your iPhoto iCloud preferences set up to download and import all photos from your mobile devices as shown below?
    If the Automatic Import checkbox isn't checked you'll have to select the D40 photos in the My Photo Stream section, Control (right) - click on one and select Import from the contextual menu.
    Note:  you didn't add the screenshot to your original post.

  • ITunes can no longer find my iPhoto - no iPhone photo sync ability...help!?

    Hello...okay, some data - I am currently running Lion and all the latest software updates, I am also running multiple users on this iMac, I am also sharing the iPhoto library using the "Shared Library" method.  My wifes iPhone (via her own account on the iMac) does access the iPhoto library properly from iTunes and she IS able to choose certain albums to sync (instead of the "All photos,..." option).  I cannot.  Please see the screenshot I took:
    Please note that the "Selected albums,..." option is greyed out and despite the radio button on "All..." being selected, no photos sync, ala, the error message.
    It's as if my iTunes account no longer sees the Shared iPhoto file and refuses to "reconnect" to it...
    iPhoto runs fine and launches from my account without issue...even launches when I connect my iPhone and download photos and videos.  So, like I say, I feel like it's iTunes no longer thinking I have a valid iPhoto running.
    Both my iPad and iPhone give me this message.  Think it has something to do with permissions, but have run a permissions fix both from the Disk Utility and from booting holding down the Command +R method, and then using Utilities, Terminal and Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs.
    I feel like my whole user account is kinda screwed ever since the migration to Lion, but a Lion reinstall did not fix it and I am not quite ready to start from scratch with a new userID...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    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, but may solve your sync problem.

  • Photos sync OK, but when edited in iPhoto,the original photos still appear.

    Photos sync fine to iPhone. However, if I edit (crop) one of these photos in iPhoto, the unedited version still appears on the phone after resyncing. I have tried unchecking the box next to the photo album, then syncing and pulling it completely off the phone. Then I recheck the box and sync the photos back to the phone. The old, unedited versions of the photos still appear on the phone. What to do?? Thanks for your help!!

    I am exporting as a JPG. I think I figured out the problem. In the old iPhoto I could export from the Edit menu. On this new version, I have click on the Photos button and go back to the screen that shows the whole event and export from there.
    It's a pain and much less efficient but it seems to be working.

  • Why are my Photos from iPhone not showing up in iPhoto during sync? (with and without USB)

    Someone actually responded to me in another thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16418849#16418849
    Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
    Do a sync.
    Then check the box.
    And sync again.
    Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James

  • Can anyone help me. Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly.  When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library.  Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."

    Can anyone help me.  I have iPhoto 9.2 and  Mac OS X 10.7.2.
    Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly.  When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library.  Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."
    I have read plenty of the posts on the subject and it seems that deleting the "3ivx" fixed the problem.  I looked at the detaied reports and see where it says "
    Library/Application Support/3ivx" etc..
    On my report it says "/Library/Application Support/iLifeMediaBrowser/*/iLMBiPhoto8Plugin".  Does this help with an answer?

    I am also having this crashing problem. I am running lion on a 2010 mac mini. My iPhoto library is kept on an external drive. I just upgraded to iPhoto 11 and everytime I try to enable photo stream the app crashes. I have tried all the above suggestions, including re-installing iphoto from the Mac App store.

  • Duplication Issues with Photo Sync via iTunes/iPhoto and Photo Stream/iCloud (Detailed Scenario Given)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'd like to share an issue I am having with photo syncing between my iDevices.
    Here is how I USED to sync my Photos between my iDevices (no issues with photo duplication)
    Note: In this scenario, I use iTunes and iPhoto on my Mac. iCloud and Photo stream have NOT been activated in this case.
    1. Take photos via iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. After a month or so, I will connect my iPhone to my Mac.
    3. Import my Photos in iPhoto and arrange  Events and Photos in monthly sections and add some of them in a separate Albums (ex. Written Notes Photos) for easy access.
    4. Once the import is done, iPhoto prompts an option to delete photos in my Camera Roll which I do as I like to start a fresh month with empty Camera Roll in my iPhone.
    5. In order to access the Photos I have imported in iPhoto in my iPhone, I go to iTunes and sync all my photos to my iPhone. This syncs my events, photos, faces, albums as they have been arranged in iPhoto in my Mac. (I cant delete them in my iPhone once they are synced. I have to delete in my iPhoto and sync again to have similar setup in my iPhone which isn't a problem).
    NOW I decided I don't want to manually go through all this process and went on to enable the Photo Stream ON in my iPhone and iPhoto with iCloud.
    THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM ENSUES.
    1. I  Take photos with my iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. This automatically syncs with my Mac due to Photo Stream which a really convenient.
    3. It syncs automatically to Photo Stream, Events, Photos, Faces section in the iPhoto and I put put some of them (notes) in a separate album.
    THE PROBLEM:
    The Photos does not show up in the Album, Events and Photos Folder in my iPhone. They are only shown in Camera Roll. So I thought to sync using iTunes so the new Photos will be arranged in their appropriate folder like it used to with my prior process of syncing. This worked, HOWEVER the photos in my iPhone started showing DUPLICATES! Apparently, one comes from Photo Stream (which, if I delete on my phone also deletes in all my iDevices) and the other duplicate is from the iTunes sync (this sets up my photos as arranged in iPhoto which is what i WANT to happen as Photo Stream does not sync them accordingly).
    SOLUTION I AM IN SEARCH FOR:
    I want to be able to take photos with my iPhone that automatically syncs in iCloud AND iPHOTO AS ARRANGED IN MY MAC (Albums, Events etc) WITHOUT PROBLEM OF PHOTO DUPLICATES.

    Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing  the iPod Photo Cache.
    Regards

  • Updated to iOS6, a week later, photos disappeared and photostream/iPhoto stopped syncing.

    I updated my 4s to iOS 6, and my photos were fine.  A week later, and my photos have disappeared, though the album names are there.  (I don't have access to a PC, so I can't use the iExplorer trick to find the photo files.)
    All of my photos exist on my photostream on my iPad, but the photostream is not syncing on my iPhone.  (Yes, the photostream is turned on on both devices.)
    In addition, many of the photos were backed up with iPhoto, and iTunes says 44 of them shoudl be synced with my phone--but they are not syncing either.
    My OS is not up to date on my Mac (I know, I know, but I deleted the app store and am too lazy to update) so I can't access my photostream on my computer.
    I created a "shared" photostream with every photo from my photostream, and only 40 of 1000 photos (the one taken by my iPad rather than my iPhone)  have appeared on my iphone in this shared photostream.
    Questions:
    1.  How do I access the photo files on my iphone, given I don't have a PC? Or is a shared photostream the best option?
    2.  How do I get my photostream to sync with my iPhone, despite the fact that my phone and iPad settings say it should already be syncing? 
    3.  How do I get iPhoto to sync with my iPhone, despite the fact that my computer setttings say it should already be syncing?

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • I just reformatted my laptop (it's like new now). When I plug in my iPod/iPhone, in the Photos section, I don't have the option of choosing iPhoto to sync albums to my devices. What do I do?

    I just reformatted my laptop (it's like new now). When I plug in my iPod/iPhone, in the Photos section, I don't have the option of choosing iPhoto to sync albums to my devices. What do I do so I iPhoto becomes an option in iTunes?

    I didn't have iPhoto so I had to purchase it from the App store but that didn't help. I think the problem is because my devices still think they are synced to the previous version of my mac, but I don't know how to get them to sync with the new setup.

  • IPhone photo sync interrupted to iPhoto now won't sync pics!

    I was on vacation and syncing my photos from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro while I lay in bed. At some point my MacBook went to sleep (I believe) and the photo syncing from iPhone to iPhoto was interrupted. Now both devices believe the photos were synced but they weren't and now the pictures and videos are taking up much needed room on my phone. What do I do to get these to sync???

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • ITunes doesn't sync my iPhoto photos to my iPhone.

    iTunes doesn't sync my iPhoto photos to my iphone, it says that is missing an file.
    When I sync my iPhone with iTunes appears a messeage saying that is missing a file and it's impossible to sync the iPhoto photos.

    Was trying to fix my iphoto albums when I synced with itunes, I got a message saying that the iphone cannot sync because a required file cannot be found. I have tried restoring to original firmware, I have also tried the trouble shooting advice about ticking off the photos sync, unplugging the phone, then deleting the ipod photo cache and then reconnecting with itunes and checking the photos sync button again, all to no avail. I still can't restore my photos on my iphone4. No help still?

  • IPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library, multiple iPhoto users

    We have a MBAir with OS X 10.8.4.
    We are two users of the same computer with 2 different user profiles. Our user profiles, imessage - facetime accounts, even system languages are different.
    However, we want to use the same iPhoto library, therefore I've created a diskimage and had both users' iphoto addressed to the same iPhoto library which works. Both users can make changes in the iphoto library and the other user will see the last updated version when he logs in.
    ...however, we come up with 2 error messages. Not always, but very frequently.
    1- "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library.
    Please click repair to avoid any potantial problems."
    When I received htis error message, I clicked repair for a couple of times, but the error message comes up again and the repair takes very very long time. So I don't click repair button anymore. I don't know what it repairs.
    2- "Insufficient disk space, iphoto cannot import your photos... "
    This error may appear 1 time and when I click o.k. it just disappears and I can work on iPhoto as I want.
    Sometimes, it keeps nagging 3-5 times and then dissappears after clicking O.K. everytime.
    And sometimes it keeps appearing endlessly, every time after clicking o.k.
    MBA has 512 GB storage where 300 GB is empty, so there is sufficient disk space, that's for sure.
    I can imagine that this problem probably occurs because both accounts have its own PhotoStream linked to iPhoto (from mobile devices) ,and both accounts keep importing the Photo stream photos but I'm sure that there should be a fix to it.
    I'd really appreciate if anyone could help, it's quite frustrating. 

    Where is the disk image located?  How big is the library as reported by the Finder? Although using a disk image is one of the methods suggested for sharing a library between users on the same Mac, it's been a problem for many.   How much free space do you have in the disk image.
    I'm thinking this workaround would work better for you: partiton the HD to give a volume just for the library that both user accounts can access. Set it to have enought room for your library to grow.  But don't let your boot volume go betlow 10-15 GB free space.
    Have that library volume set as shown below and to ignore ownership:
    Are both users have their own iCloud account or are they using the same account?  I would think it would have to be the same account because a library can only sync to one account. Therefore I don't think the PS syncing would be involved.
    Another option would be to use an external HD.  Some are as small as a mouse:  OWC Mercury On-The-Go Pro USB 3.0 & 2.0 / FireWire 800, and 2.5" SATA Portable External Hard Drive & SSD and are powered by the Mac.

  • Iphoto-iphone sync weirdness after upgrading to Mavericks

    I didn't receive any replies on the Mavericks board, so I'll repost this here.  Really puzzled and annoyed.
    recently upgraded my iMac to Mavericks from Snow Leopard (early adopter that I am).  Much has gone more smoothly than I expected.
    However, one thing that is really strange is that after I synced my iphone 5s, I noticed that two of the iphoto albums I've synced include some extraneous photos on the phone (not in the albums on iphoto on the iMac).  I tried deleting the albums from the phone during the next sync, duplicating and renaming them in iphoto, and syncing to the new albums, but the extraneous pictures are still there.
    I'm syncing to my computer and not icloud, for what it's worth.
    Since then, I've noticed that not only are most of the albums messed up, but the time/date stamps on the pictures are all wrong so sorting by date reusults in a fairly chaotic mess.
    Any ideas/suggestions?
    Thanks.
