Itunes crashes while syncing photos to 3gs

I'm running a new pc with win7, itunes 10 and an iphone 3gs with os 4.1. All apps and video sync fine. the problem is when I have the iphone open in the devices column, and i click on the photo tab, the option to sync selected folders is greyed out. I then click on the my pictures tab and go to choose folder, itunes crashes completly.
I have tried the delete the ipod photo cache folder route, but that hasn't made a difference. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

I am having exactly the same problem with my iPad, would be great if we could get some support!
Have tried deleteing/renaming the iPad Photo Cache folder, no love. Reinstalled iTunes, restored the ipad, and still nothing.
Please help!

  • ITunes crashes while syncing iPod 5th Gen.

    I have begun encountering massive errors when attempting to sync my 5th Gen. iPod to iTunes 7.5 on my HP laptop. Almost immediately after the iPod is detected, a Vista window pops up, stating that an error has occurred and iTunes must close. Several times after this has happened, my computer has automatically restarted itself, several times going to a blue screen where it appears that major disk analysis takes place. I was once able to stop syncing and keep iTunes open with my iPod attached; I restored it to see if that could help the issue, but nothing has changed. I have reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime, and I have tried one of the 7.4 versions of iTunes as well. Nothing is helping. Any ideas or suggestions would be immensely appreciated.

    I have a Dell Dimension. I have just upgraded from XP to Vista with a clean install. 5th Gen Ipod no longer works with iTunes 7.5 esp when syncing photos - it takes 5 minutes per photo and crashes after 5 photos.
    Having Googled this it seems there are many similar issues

  • ITunes Crashes while syncing Larger Videos

    Everytime I try to sync a large movie..... anything over about 200MB either into the video library from directly itunes or into the app Azul through file sharing iTunes crashes about a 1/3 or 1/2 way through the sync..... Most frusterating. Also if I have a large movie file it crashes while backing during a sync....
    Any thoughts?
    Its an iPod 4th Gen running IOS 4.2.1 with a Windows XP service pack 3 PC and iTunes 10.1.1.4.

    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Itunes crashes while syncing music

    Goodmorning everyone,
    I have a problem with my Iphone 3g 16gb 4.2.1 OS, because it refuses to sync music with my Itunes (10.4).
    Ever since I downloaded Itunes 10.4 my Itunes crashes during the music synchronisation process. Everything else it synchronises perfectly, even my restored apps and my contacts and emails. However as soon as i try to sync music or podcasts I get a windows 7 error saying:
    "Itunes is not working anymore, it needs to be shut down" in dutch then. With no error codes or what so ever, no explanation where it goes wrong or something that causes the error.
    I tried:
    * Deleting all itunes or apple related software and reinstalling itunes 10.4 from the download site of apple.
    * Trying to select only a few music files to synchronise which I know are still on this laptop
    What am I doing wrong and is there anyone that can help me? Because now i am stuck with a iphone without music
    Thanks on forehand,
    Regards,
    Boudewijn

    I'm having the same problem--iTunes crashes when it tries to sync music and podcasts to my iPhone 4. I've only had this problem since I installed Itunes 10.4.1.0. I'm hoping they'll come out with a 10.4.1.1 that fixes it...
    I'm a little surprised that they don't have an option to submit crash diagnostic data. I'd be happy to share it with you guys, Apple!

  • ITunes crashes when syncing photos since iPhone upgraded to iOS 5

    Recently ran the iOS 5 upgrade on my 32GB iPhone 3GS, everything works fine on the phone (despite losing an app I'd paid £6.99 for - grrr!) but iTunes syncing isn't working properly.
    I can sync books, podcasts, music, ringtones all fine, but when it comes to photos, it just crashes as it tries to sync the first one. I tried restoring the phone, but now I just have no photos on it at all, and it still won't sync.
    I get the same issue on 4 different PCs, different versions of iTunes, different cables, so it has to be a problem with the phone? So annoying as I'd really like to have photos on the device, as as Apple make you use iTunes to sync them (why you can't just drag and drop them on there is a mystery to me) I'd quite like them to fix the problem they appear to have caused with their update.
    And yes, I can sync the photos fine to an iPod Classic, 3 different Nanos and an iPad 2.

    I had identical issue and just found the answer here -

  • ITunes crash while syncing

    I restored to factory defaults an 80 gig ipod and ran scandisk. All seems fine with the ipod. When I try to sync it to reload the music from the latest ver of iTunes it crashes at about the same point every time. This is the error message I get. I sure would love to know how to fix this.

  • ITunes has stopped working while sync photos

    I have been having problems since I updated iTunes to 10.4, it keeps crashing (itunes has stopped working) while sync photos. After uninstalling and re-installing the problem still stayed. I therefore tried sync photos a batch at a time (15 photos at a time) IT WORKED but I still cannot sync my videos. I think that the problem is that this new version of itunes cannot cope with big files and therefore it crashes. I HOPE THAT APPLE WILL SORT OUT THIS PROBLEM

    downgrade to itunes 10.3 as 10.4 broke this feature. if not, just unclick the include videos box and your sync should complete. here's hoping apple fixes this in itunes 10.5.

  • ITunes crashes upon syncing music to iPhone 3GS iOS4

    I recently bought an iPhone 3GS and upgraded it to 4.1. Whenever I try and sync my music, iTunes will crash - I get the "iTunes has encountered an unexpected error and has to close" message, with the Windows report screen popping up and all that. This is only when I sync my music - applications and contacts sync fine (I do not sync videos/photos/voicemails so I have those all unchecked). I only sync one selected playlist (not my whole library).
    I am using iTunes 10, running on Windows XP. I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times (including downgrading to 9.2 at one point) but I continue to get the same result - iTunes crashes upon syncing music. I just did a fresh restore, and this has not fixed the problem.
    I have tried splitting up my 550 song playlist that I normally sync to my iPhone, but when I did this (it was only about 250 songs) iTunes crashed again towards the end. It has been crashing whether or not I have the "Convert to 128 kbps AAC" checked or not. It crashes somewhere in the middle of "Copying X out of X."
    Note As of typing this, I successfully synced a separate 58-song playlist WITH "Convert to 128 kbps AAC checked." However, I then tried to sync a different 61-song playlist WITHOUT that checked and iTunes proceeded to crash. After this, I tried syncing the 58-song playlist again WITHOUT the Convert checked and it synced perfectly without crashing.
    Recap:
    Playlist #1 (550 songs) - Crashes WITH OR WITHOUT convert checked
    Playlist #2 (58 songs) - Syncs perfectly with or without convert checked
    Playlist #3 (61 songs) - Crashes without "Convert..." checked (have not tested with "Convert..." checked, it's late and I have to head to bed soon and I want to get this post up).
    Considering this information, would it be reasonable for me to assume that it's some of the songs in my library that are making iTunes crash? If so, how the heck am I supposed to figure which songs are causing this? I really hope I do not have to sit here as iTunes syncs and watch our for every song it crashes on...
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I've scoured these boards but I haven't found anyone with the same situation as me, and thus no answers.
    So frustrated. Even my old iPhone 2G on OS 3.0 syncs my music perfectly!!

    I am back to attempting to sync my music. iTunes continues to crash on certain songs, however I have also noticed another problem - each time I attempt to sync my main playlist (after deleting the song it crashed on last time), it will say Copying X out of like, 96 or some number that is nowhere near the real count of songs on the playlist.

  • Itunes crashes when syncing Ipad with mp4 movies in photo folder for keynotes

    I'm trying to upload a small MP4 video onto my Ipad to use in Keynotes. I place the video in the photo folder and select sync, then tunes crashes.
    I had created the video in Corel Video Studio pro 3 and created MP4 file. Copied to the IPAD and had it all working. I then made changes to the video and reconverted and now Itunes crashes when syncing.
    Itunes 10.4.1.10 Ipad 4.3.5
    Please help urgent

    I had the same problem, and it turns out that the problem is having the same file into different folders. For example I had an MP4 in iTunes, and the same file in the photos folder that was being updated to the iPad. So I just removed one file and it syncs perfectly.

  • Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty

    Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty.  The same photo folders in Windows Photo Gallery are full of photos. How do I fix this?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • ITunes crashes while trying to sync videos during optimizing

    Hello, Folks,
    iTunes crashes while trying to sync during the optimizing phase if there are any videos in the folder.
    If I remove the videos from the folder, the sync succeeds.
    The videos were imported from the iPhone using the Windows 7 import dialog.

    Can you not sync your iPod with iTunes? That should get the movie onto your computer. Now sync your iPad and transfer the movie?

    This is how Apple handles photos.
    Just as a song is in your music library and you can access that exact same song from a playlist,  your photos are in the Photo Library and those exact same photos can be accessed from the labum you synced.
    It is working exactly as designed.
