ITunes too old to sync photos to iPhone 3G?

When I first got my iPhone (late December) I set up a folder of photos in iPhoto that would sync with my iPhone... and did a successful sync.
Since updating my iPhone to 2.1, and 2.11, I can no longer sync photos to my iPhone via that folder. I get an error message when I choose to sync that says that in order to sync photos to my iPhone I must have iLife 9 on my computer. I believe that is the version mentioned - I am not at home at the moment with the laptop that I sync with. What I believe I'm seeing, is that my version of iPhoto is too old to sync with the updated iPhone. All choices to sync with are grayed out. The only option is to sync the whole library... I don't want to sync my entire library.
I've not seen this particular problem on this forum. If I've missed a solution - would someone post the link here? I don't want to install a newer iLife on this old laptop. I have other newer MacBook pro computers - but I use them for work projects and would rather not clutter them up with all my photos.
Any help?
Thanks

I do find it interesting that I was able to do that initial sync of my photo album...
I wondered about that, myself... But, even without iPhoto, you can sync with a folder on the Mac. Older versions of iPhoto stored their pictures more transparently (in folders in the Pictures folder), so if you selected a folder in iTunes it would work.
You could try copying the pics into a folder elsewhere on the Titanium G4's HDD and selecting that folder to sync. In iTunes, with the iPhone connected and selected in the devices tab, click the Photos tab and set the top pop-up menu to a folder. You can use one level of subfolders for 'albums' that will show up as such on the iPhone.
Or, as you state, you could just move the pics to a newer machine.

Is iPhoto 7.1.5 too old to import photos from iPhone 5c/iOS 7.0.4?

What I have::
iPhoto 7.1.5
iPhone 5C / iOS 7.0.4
MacOSX 10.6.8
Report::
My iPhoto says 'Unreadable Files' when it attempts to import photos from my iPhone.
Question::
Do I need to upgrade my iPhoto 7.1.5, thus my MacOSX10.6.8, to import photos from my iPhone5c into iPhoto?
If so, what upgrades need to be made/purchased?

Hello ALWright17
Try using Image Capture to see if they will import using that program. If it does then you drag and drop on top of iPhoto. If they do not then there may be an issue with the photos. Alternatively you can email the pictures to yourself and then save them to your computer. Check out the articles below for importing and troubleshooting photos that

TS3697 I am receiving an error message(iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previously synced to your iPhone") I am trying to download pics from my computer to my iPhone. Any ideas? Peter

When I went to download some pics (originally taken with my iphone 4S) from my computer back to my iPhone I got the following error message: "iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previosly synced to your iPhone?"
Coincidentally, my wife just purchased an iPhone 4S and syncs to iTunes on the same computer.
Any ideas?
Peter

The "best" way to handle it, if you want to keep everything separate, is to create separate user accounts on the computer. make sure you log into your account on the computer before you attempt to sync your phone and log out when you're done using the computer.
Though it's possible to sync both of them to the same iTunes library, and even share an account for the iTunes store, you're inviting confusion and possible data loss (as you've discovered already). Best to just use separate user accounts on the computer. That also gives you the benefit of not polluting the other persons browser favorites, contacts, etc.

ITunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone

I keep getting the following message when syncing my phone: iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone. I just recently updated my iPhone 5s to the latest iOS version and iTunes is the latest version as well. Has anyone else had the same problem?

Problem seems to be resolved. Photos are now syncing.

To sync any photos that are not part of photo stream, you will need to sync the photos to your computer via iTunes first and then to the other device.
WC, will this work from photostream on my computer too? I just turned photo stream on on my computer. Thank you. Liz

HT1296 how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

I have the same issue. I've already read the iPhone user guide which didn't help.
The user guide explains how to turn on Photo Sync in iTunes but no specifics of where the imported photos will be. I tried syncing a few times and I cannot find the photos on my PC.iTunes transferred all my PC photos *to* the phone, but not the other way around.
I'd imagine they should be in the folder that is specified in iTunes.
Any help would be appreciated!

How do I sync photos from Iphone to Ipad?

How can I sync photos from Iphone 4S to Ipad 4th generation?

The only way is to sync to iTunes on a computer and then sync from iTunes to the other device, using USB.
If you're thinking of using photo stream, that won't work now, since only photos taken AFTER each device was logged into photo stream will sync between them. All older photos must be synced via a computer.
The exception to this is if you use dropbox or some other service to act as the middleman.

Hi there, I have installed iTune on my new Toshiba laptop which runs on Win 8. I can update itune on Toshiba laptop, sync but the iphone Apps still showing app to be updated. Restarted both Itune

Hi there, I have installed iTune on my new Toshiba laptop which runs on Win 8. I can update itune on Toshiba laptop, sync but the iphone Apps still showing app to be updated. Restarted both Itune and iphone....reset phone backup....to no avail.....HELP!

I have removed now all bloatware from laptop, CCleaner run and some more stuff: installed Libre Office, Free Avast, Mozilla Firefox - Spotify was preinstalled. And now this is even better - really simple and fast.
I also removed Ethernet completely, as I don't want to be locked at one place. It's not cool to use laptop on divan sofa. So tired after hour of sitting in uncool position. Wifi speed loss is almost 50%. 95 Mbps I get from 100 Mbps at Ethernet and on Wifi in laptop I get at max 50 Mbps. It's only for end this year this way, then I will slow down my connection anyway as for one person and laptop/smartphone it's way too much of speed for 40 €. With 27€ I can get the same 10M/10M and it will be more than enough. Now I have 100M/10M.
I'm also considering about 50M/10M option for 32.90 €, but I will see what I do. I download now test file 10GB and it loads 30-40 Mbps and sometimes even as fast as 50 Mbps. It depends on server also, but ebven on Google, which works on Ethernet at 95 Mbps, it is on Wifi nothing more than 51 Mbps.
It's also 10GB of 1,100 Offlined tracks, I tested it now. So on trips 32GB card should be enough for my phone. I'm going to one soon :)

How to delete synced photos on iPhone 4? Please tell me! Thanks!

I have tried to delete the synced photos on iphone but it can be deleted! How??

You can remove all of the synced photos from the phone by connecting it to iTunes on your computer and syncing again but before you sync remove the checkmark beside "Sync Photos from" on the Photos tab of iTunes. If you only want to remove some of the photos there are more details in the "To delete synced photos and videos" section of http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4236

HT4236 if i sync photos from iphone to my mac fir the first time what happens

if i sync photos from iphone to my mac fir the first time what happens

The transfer of photos from an iPhone to a Mac is an import. It is very similar to what happens when you move photos from any camera to the Mac (if you have ever done that). Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
The iTunes sync can move photos the other direction (Mac to iPhone). That "sync" works the same way each time you do it -- it sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current iTunes photo page settings. Instructions for that: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad?

How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad? I don't want to delete 3 separate times for each item. I just carefully chose 30-35 apps to get rid of via iTunes, hoping it would sync to my devices, only to find I have to repeat the process on my iPad, take notes, then repeat it on my iPhone. It wasn't always so tedious was it?
Here's the "Help" I got from Apple. They even quoted my question back to me then proceeded to answer with something very different and completely missing the point.
I understand that you would like to delete the Apps. I know how eager you are to get the required information and I will be happy to assist you.
You can remove individual songs, audiobooks, and videos from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. Removing an item from your device doesn't delete it from your iTunes library.
To remove items from a device other than an iPod shuffle, first make sure that iTunes is set up to manually manage items.
1. Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
2. When the iPod, iPhone, or iPad icon appears in iTunes, select it.
3. Unless your device is an iPod shuffle, click the Summary tab and make sure "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music" is selected.
4. If the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices) is closed, click the triangle so that you can see the device's contents.
5. Select the item you want to delete and press the Delete key.
This was not helpful in any way and I am still unable to delete apps on my devices in a global, iTunes based way. Each device still requires its own independent process.

Match was off. I made all of the changes and then went through the "Turn on iTunes Match" option. I now have deleted some tracks, edited the Metadata in CDDA, and then added it back. This worked fine, but it is not a good solution.
I just tried making some edits and use the "Update iTunes Match" and that seemed to work. It looks like the real answer is that Match must be up and operational, then you can make changes and run the Update to incorporate the changes. However, if Match has a problem then Signing Out and back in to your store account and going through the process of Turning On Match (were you get the questions, "Add this Computer to Match" will overwrite any changes.
Since this relies on the stability of iTunes, I won't be making a lot of changes between updates.

I am trying to update my iTunes so I can sync my new iphone 5s and it doesn't recognize the phone, apple support said I need to update my iTunes when I try and do that I get an error message that says " the ITunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try back later.
My internet works fine and I have tried back dozens of times with same result.

Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
Thanks!
