ITunes can't see Aperture album photos to sync with iPhone??

I had to export my Aperture library to downgrade from version 3.2 to 3.1.3 due to all the bugs in 3.2.  Since that time, though there are photos in my albums that I can see, edit, etc these pics are not showing up on the Photos screen of the Sync prefs when my iPhone 4 is plugged in.  The albums themselves all show up when I select to sync with Aperture but it shows "0" photos in every album despite the fact that all the albums have photos in them.  I have repaired permissions on Aperture library, on the computer, upgraded to iTunes 10.5, restarted the computer.  I'm guessing there was a preference file that might have linked the old Aperture library (no longer in the "Pictures" folder) to iTunes photo syncing with iPhone.  New Aperture Library has same name and location as the old one but iTunes just isn't seeing these photos.  Any suggestions on fixing?

I made a duplicate copy of a picture and did some editing of it.  I added sepia tone, etc.  When I go to Shutterfly to upload the edited picture, I can't find it.  I see the original, but not the edited duplicate.  I shut down the computer last night and let it update and checked it again this morning, but still can't find the edited picture.  I know it is "in there" somewhere, because when I open Aperture 3, I can see the edited pic.  Any thoughts?  Thank you.

  • ITunes can't see Aperture Library

    Last week I bought a new MacBook Pro and have just about got all my user data copied over and every thing configured the way I want it to be. But I'm having a small problem with iTunes seeing my Aperture library.
    When I try to set up photo sharing to my Apple TV or to sync to my iPhone I get this error message:
    I don't understand how to fix this since I have told Aperture to "always" share previews with iLife and iWork apps. Is there an option I'm missing? Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • ITunes can't find Aperture Library for iPad sync

    I just upgraded from iPhoto '11 to Aperture 3. When trying to sync my iPad, and telling iTunes to now sync photos from Aperture, I get the following message:
    "Your Aperture Library could not be found. Open the preferences window in Aperture and enable the preference to share previews with other applications."
    All well and good, but when I go to the preference pane in Aperture, I do not see the referenced option. Under the "Previews" tab (Aperture > Preferences > Previews) I see the options for "Share previews with iLife and iWork" (Always/When quitting Aperture/Never)--is that the preference indication they mean? None of those options results in iTunes being able to see my Aperture library.
    Oddly, Aperture can see and import photos on my iPad that are not already in my Library, but claims it cannot send photos in the other direction because the library can't be seen. Frustrating

    This is a repost from another thread dealing with what I think is the same issue. It is what ended up working for me:
    I have gone through a lot of steps and they all seem to have inched me closer to resolving this issue. My original post may have been cluttered so I'll list the steps I took here. The final step, though very time consuming seems to have corrected most of the problems, though I think I now need to get Aperture to generate new previews for all of my images at a size that the iPad likes (1920x1920).
    1. Set Aperture's preference to Always share with iLife applications
    2. Set Aperture's preference to generate previews at 1920x1920 or better
    3. Repair Permissions via the Aperture Library First Aid function described here (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805). You may want to do one of the more serious Library repairs just to get things organized with the file structure system but "Repair Permissions" seems to have been all I need to do.
    4. Go to the top of your image hierarchy and reprocess all of the images with the newest Aperture RAW convertor by control-clicking on Photos and selecting "Reprocess Masters"(if you shoot RAW... and you should shoot RAW). It gives you several options, I chose to preserve all of my edits which will add additional time to the process but is worth it so you don't have to re-edit everything. I selected "All Photos" and "Reprocess Existing Images"
    If you have a large library (1TB or more) you are now two days or so into this process.
    5. Back up your Vault to save these changes
    6. Generate new previews since you changed the size in which Aperture saved the JPEGs it uses to export to Aperture. I believe this is done from the top of the image hierarchy as well by holding down the option key when you right-click on the whole library. But, I am not at this stage yet so I can't be sure about that.

  • Can't see my full photo history on my iPhone

    About a year ago I switched carriers and decided I just wanted a fresh start on my new phone, so instead of recovering from a backup, I just logged my id in and started using the new device. I noticed that my old photos didn't automatically download, but I could still see them associated with knit Apple id through the photo stream on my Apple tv so I wasn't worried.
    I've taken a couple peeks here and there but I don't see a way to restore those old photos onto my current phone.  They're still out there though. Is there any way to sync with my icloud photo stream with my current phone? I know I can sync them back from my pc, but the OCD part of me wants them back integrated in the chronology of my stream.
    Thanks in advance!

    Yes I did that, as I stated above - by hitting F3 and looking at the different desktop spaces.  I'm wondering if it is just hidden below some border of the screen ?  How would I determine that?

  • Photos album names not syncing with iPhone

    I'm having trouble with the new Photos application.  I've renamed several of my album names on the app, but in iTunes the changes are not being recognized and thus not syncing to my iPhone either.
    Separately, several albums have "x" number of photos in them, but when I sync that album to my phone less than "x" photos actually flow into the album.  It's frustrating.
    I have rebooted everything (phone, computer, etc.) and I'm running the latest version of all software, so those basic fixes will not work here.  Any ideas?!?  Thanks in advance for your help...

    Photos app not syncing with iTunes

  • ITunes album metadata not syncing with iPhone

    iTunes 11.1.2
    iPhone 5s running iOS 7.0.3
    I purchased an album from the iTunes store, which is actually 3 albums in 1.
    Once downloaded, I set about changing the metadata so that the albums appear as 3 seperate albums under the one artist. All good - until I sync with my iPhone, when (on the iPhone) the metadata reverts to the original iTunes Store metadata and back to 1 album with all the tracks from the 3 albums out of chronological order ie. track 1, 1, 1, track 2, 2, 2 etc...! Grrrr
    Have deleted ALL unecessary metadata fields on all tracks, just leaving the genre, the artist name, each album name and turned off any 'compilation' options. No joy and still shows as 1 album on my iPhone.
    Any solutions???
    Thanks in advance...

  • ITunes can't see Aperture Library - iMovie can't see most videos in Aperture Library

    Issues:
    Nearly all of my videos in the Aperture/iPhoto library do not show up when I select iPhoto library option in iMovie and iMovie is unable to locate them in any other way. 
    iTunes does not recognize my Aperture library, and I get the following message:
    "Your Aperture Library could not be found. Open the preferences window in Aperture and enable the preference to share previews with other applications."
    After reading through forums and multiple Genius Bar appointments here is most of what I have done:
    Created multiple new Aperture libraries, selected them in Aperture, rebooted, switched back and forth - Note:  iTunes DID recognize the new blank libraries
    Booted Aperture with the Command + Option keys and run all three options to repair permssions and even rebuilt the database
    Booted Aperture with the Option key and selectedthe library I was using all along (this worked for someone in a forum)
    Opened iPhoto (not Aperture) and selected an option to share photos
    Run "Verify Disk Permissions" many times under Disk Utility
    Run "Repair Disk Permissions" many times under Disk Utility
    Reinstalled OSX
    Reinstalled Aperture
    Reinstalled iTunes
    Run a virus and malware scan (no issues)
    Verified that Aperture was set to share previews and had a Genius go through all of my options to ensure they were correct in iTunes, Aperture, and iPhoto
    Have ran "Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs" from the Command + Option + R recovery partition multiple times.  Each time it just hangs for hours, the latest attempt ran for over 24 hours before I finally stopped it.
    Oh yes, and I found and deleted the file com.apple.iApps.plist
    None of these things fixed either of my issues.  According the the Genius at my last appointment, now I have to call Apple Care and pay to get support.  I must have misunderstood what the Genius Bar was about when I bought my Mac and why I purchased the One to One training.  Before I call Apple Care, I was hoping someone might have run across this and can help me.
    I asked the Genius if I now need to just create a new Aperture Library and move all of my content to it (that was the last resort for someone in a forum); however, he was concerned that even if this might work that I probably have deeper permission and/or other issues that need to be addressed and that doing so would not fix the root cause.
    Thanks for taking the time to read through this issue.

    It was suggested that I post this in the Aperture forum, so I did.  I didn't know that you couldn't delete or edit your own posts on this site.  I apologize for the duplicate post and this can be deleted if an admin is so inclined.

  • In order to create space on my MBA I just bumped iTunes media to G drive linked through Time Capsule.  Now pointed iTunes at new iTunes libary on G drive and, even though all music files are there, iTunes can only 'see' 10 albums. Any help appreciated.

    Bit more detail...
    Mac Book Air has been struggling for space for a while so I bough at time capsule a) for back up and b) to host my itunes folder remotely.  This didnt' work.  I took it into the Genius bar and the genius there told me that time capsule is not designed for anything other than back up.  Instead I have to connect a G drive through the time capsule's wireless router to my MBA. 
    I followed his instructions - moved my files from the Time Capsule and MBA directly onto the G Drive - which took a heartening 2 hrs so something must have been happening - and the held down 'Alt' when starting iTunes and selected the new itunes folder as the location of my itunes libarary which I wanted iTunes to 'point at'.  When I opened iTunes only 10 albums are visible now.
    In ITunes advanced preferences it says it is pointing at the correct folder.  The files are all cleary there when I open the G Drive folder to take a look.  But I cannot get iTunes to find them.
    Any suggestions? 
    Secondary challenge - in spite of deleting the original itunes folder on my MBA I still get messages pop up telling me my start up disk is out of space and I need to clear some - I expected to stop getting this message now I had done this exercise above.  I have emptied Trash.  Again - any pointers appreciated.  I am new to this world of 'intuitive' macbooks.
    Cheers

    After admittedly only a quick read the one thing you don't say is how you are trying to make this move.  Most people with moving library issues do it the wrong way.  Plenty of web sites tell you how to do it the wrong way.
    If the iTunes application is started before the drive with the library is fully mounted and awake iTunes will revert back to the internal drive.

  • ITunes can't see my address book to sync

    I have a MacBook running OSX 10.4.9 and iTunes 7.2. On either my 1st gen or video ipod, when trying to turn on contact syncing I get the message:
    No contacts available
    Contact syncing cannot be enabled because there are no contact available. Do you want to open the address book and create contacts now?
    There are options to cancel or open address book only. When I open my address book there are all of my contacts and nothing appears to be corrupt. I have tried to even backup my contacts and empty the address book to sync an empty address book, but it give the same message. My only thought is that I started to have random problems when I tried using file vault encryption and had to turn it off. Maybe some file path problem crept in. Any ideas?
    Chris

    Mine is doing the exact same thing, and nobody on any of these threads has had any luck fixing it yet, so far as I can tell. iSync is worthless since it simply won't see the ipod and basically is not used at all now as .mac is done through its own preference window. What did work for me, and was quite easily done, was to just open your ipod through the finder and delete the vcard data in the contacts folder. Export your contacts from address book as a vcard to that contacts folder on your ipod, and it all works fine.
    Still won't sync...but at least this only takes a minute to do. I'd like to actually fix it though.

  • IPhoto - can't choose iPhoto as a folder to copy photos when syncing with iPhone 6

    I just updated my iTunes because I just got the new iPhone 6. When I connected my phone I was asked to create a name for a folder to copy photos from. I didn't know what I was doing to I named it pictures. I don't know how to just choose iPhoto for the place to choose photos from for syncing. What did I do and how can I fix it? Anyone??

    Hello Kat2007,
    If I understand correctly you are needing to sync your iPhoto images from your Mac to your iPhone. You should be able to select iPhoto from the drop down menu at the top of the photos tab in iTunes when you have your device connected:

    You have to use iCloud for the Notes. Books can be synced via iTunes.

  • Transfer iTunes to new Mac from Time Machine, then sync with iPhone

    Hi everyone,
    I just sold my old Macbook (everything was backed up with Time Machine) and bought a new Macbook Pro. Now I want to copy the iTunes library back. The problem is, even if I copy all the music, video, apps, iTunes U... from Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/... to the new Macbook, iTunes still thinks (rightfully) that it is a new machine. So if I plug my iPhone to it and try to sync, it will ask to *remove all my apps*, music, contacts... and resync again. That would probably *remove every user data* I have in those apps.
    Do you have any solution?

    By any chance do you still have the old computer? If you do then copy /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder on the old computer to an external drive then transfer it to the new computer.
    If you don't have the old computer then you have a little bit of a problem. Did you use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to transfer your files from the TM backup? Is the username (account short name) on the new computer the same as on the old computer? I'm guessing "no" because you are getting the permissions errors.

  • TS4002 iCloud for email is not on my Mac. How can I get email and iCal to sync with iphone and ipad.

    iCloud for email is not on my Mac. It should be under Internet and wireless in System Preferences but it is not. Basically I am trying to get iCloud running successfully on my Mac for email and Calendar so that it will sync with my iPad and iPhone. I was an MobilMe customer and I've been having trouble with this conversion to iCloud. Thanks.

    I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works.  Is anyone else having problems like this?  All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

  • Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

    After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

    I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7.  The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8).  For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work.  However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things!  Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.
