ITunes User Icon Photo

Does anyone know how to set the user icon photo in iTunes?  It has my name next to it on the new Yosemite iTunes - but the icon is empty, as if it's waiting for me to set the photo.
It also happens when I'm logged in on the Apple Store online.
Thanks!

In Mavericks, that's where they are here :

  • Account user icon photo question

    I just upgraded to Mavericks recently and although I lost use of several older apps I still think it's an very improved & excellent OS.
    To create my user ID icon photo I used the camera in the MacBook Pro to snap a good image I like for my "universal" ID. Here's the problem:  I am unable to use that same image on my new Mac Mini because the user ID icon in the MacBook is impossible to find or even copy so that I can move it to my Mac Mini for that account user ID image. Is there a solution to this silly dilemma (other than trying to take an identical photo)? Thanks.

    Hello Debbie,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPad was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • What does this mean? iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone because you do not have write access to the folder "iChat Icons"

    Can anyone help me please? My iphone originally was linked to my PC. I downloaded over 3,000 pictures from my PC to my iphone. Since then my PC broke and now I have a macbook pro and the macbook doesn't recognize all the pictures from my pc. I get the following message.
    -iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone "Daniel's iPhone" because you do not have write access to the folder "iChat Icons".

    Hi,
    I picked up on this Post as I was searching for "iChat" in non iChat places.
    A Mac will contain a Folder for "iChat Icons"
    It is kept in Hard Drive/System/Library/Application Support/iChat icons
    There are about 9 sub folders here including Planets, Guitars, Feng Shui and so on.
    They are normally accessed in iChat to be your Own Buddy pic.
    They way you have phrased your posts suggests you have a folder on your phone called "iChat icons" which may have been created by the PC.
    For people who know more about iTunes than I do to help will need to know where this Folder is exactly.

  • Cannot see itunes library in Photos slideshow

    When creating a slideshow with PHOTOS, I compiled and edited the pictures. When trying to include music from my iTunes library, I get the following message: "Open iTunes to populate this list". No way of seeing my iTunes library within Photos, hence no slideshow with music from my library.
    I've tried trashing the iTunes XML file, but no result.
    iMac (late 2013), OS X Yosemite 10.10.3, latest iTunes
    Thanks.

    I just created a test slideshow and then clicked on the music icon on right side and my iTunes library shows up

  • ITunes syncs duplicate photos (Identical RAW and JPEG)

    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2398472
    I just don't want iTunes to sync photo duplicates. I had brought this up before and this is still an issue for me. I'd love to know if there is an advanced Mac user that can help solve this issue. By preference, I have my camera save JPEG and RAW simultaneously, which means each photo gets placed on my iPods twice. Photos take up 21.6 GB, could be almost half (some videos in the photo folders). I've submitted a feature request / suggestion, but I would like to resolve this sooner than later.
    I searched around, hoping to find some method on OS X of denying an application access to certain file types; haven't seen anything yet. Why is this not an issue for others? Am I really that much of an oddball for wanting both JPEG and RAW?

    Thanks--the stacking approach seems to mostly work OK; not sure why I didn't think of it. IA problem though is that setting the slider for the time between shots to zero doesn't actually group shots having the same capture time--it seems to group nothing! Kind of pointless. You thus have to set the minimum time to 1s, which can put too many photos in a stack if you've been blazing away. I think I'd consider this a bug.

  • Itunes cannot sync photos

    Trying to sync photos to new 80GB Classic. I get the following error message "itunes cannot sync photos to the ipod "ipod name" because the folder "my pictures" cannot be found."
    I coincidentally got a a new computer a week ago and I get the same error message on both the new computer and the old computer.
    I've seen several posts about photo syncing problems but I have not yet seen the resolution...maybe I missed it? Any help?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

  • Why does my user icon keep changing?

    Hi all,
    It's not the end of the world but annoying just the same - I set my user icon to one of the standard Lion icons when I first set up my new MacBook Air and later changed it via System Preferences to a different photo that I've stored on my hard drive. Or at least, I thought I changed it.
    Lion keeps changing the user icon back to the default one that I set when I first set up my MB Air.
    Has anyone else run into this issue? And does anyone know of a solution for this?
    I can obviously live with this if I have to, but it sure it annoying!
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    I messed about with this for an hour today - trying all the ways that were suggested in these and other forums to no avail. it kept switching back to my original photo or nothing at all the moment I saved. FINALLY - I figured it out. I duplicated and cropped a picture within iPhoto and named it with my own face. Then I DRAGGED it instead of CHOOSING it to the contact card - and voila! Finally it stuck!
    Such a trivial little thing but I was so tired of the "trial" photo I had posted when I first bought my computer. Good luck!

  • How do I get the iTunes 9 icon in iTunes 10

    I run an iMac OS X 10.6.8 with iTunes 10, but I don't like the iTunes 10 Icon as much as the iTunes 9 Icon, How do I change it?

    You can do a limited amount with:

    Icons are no longer stored in a files resource fork. They are stored separately in .icns files and linked or "attached" to files.
    Some icons are system level. They are stored in a system file which is not available to the end-user and link with relevant file types (eg Application and System folder icons). You cannot change these.
    Other non system files (folders, files, applications) can have their icons changed by the end user. Icons are stored in self-contained files with the .icns extension. You can search for these .icns files and then open one in Iconographer."

  • ITunes - Problem recognising photos from Aperture 3

    I'm having issues with iTunes recognising my photos from Aperture 3.
    For example, in my default Aperture library, in one of my projects it has about 2000 photos but when i went to the iTunes photo tab for my devices (iPhones, AppleTV or iPad) and select that particular project, it indicates that there are only 229 photos.
    I've tried to fix this issue by creating a new library and copying photos from my default to the new library and same issue is still there. I've tried to fix it by deleting all the ipod photo cache within Aperture 3 package content.
    Nothing worked. This problem only started about 3 months ago. Before, iTunes would recognise all 2000 photos within the project and sync to my devices all the photos. Now iTunes only sync across 229 photos.
    For each device, whether it is my AppleTV, my iPhone or iPad it all says 229 photos.
    My AppleTV has about 40 GB spare and my iPad has more then 15 GB spare and iTunes still reports 229 Photos for that project.
    Could someone please help me!?
    Thanks in advance

    Aperture creates preview images that contain all the adjustments you've made to the master image. These previews are what is shared with other apps such as iLife or if you drag and drop an image out of Aperture to another app or the Finder.
    The size of the previews is controlled in Aperture Preferences. Open Aperture Preferences and click on the Previews icon at the top. In the bottom of this dialog there is a popup menu titled "Photo Preview". This is the setting that controls the size of the image Aperture shares with iPhoto. Change this setting to the size you want.
    But wait, you're not done yet. Changing this setting does nothing until a new preview is created in Aperture. If you right click an image in Aperture there is a menu item near the bottom named "Update Preview". But what you really need is "Generate Preview". Right click the image and then hold down the option key and you'll see "Update Preview" change to "Generate Preview". Choose "Generate Preview" and a new preview will be created using the new size setting you made in Preferences. You need to do this for each and every image you wish to share at the larger size. You can select multiple images before selecting the "Generate Preview" command to speed things up.
    Now when you share an image from Aperture to iPhoto the new larger file will be used. The advantage of smaller previews is your Aperture library will also be smaller but the trade off is what you get in other apps that are using your images.

  • Why has itunes user interface been ruined?

    Why has the itunes user interface been ruined?  It used to be easy to use.  Basic functions dont work any more.  Editing a Play List requires extra steps.  I cant restore the useful side navigation bar where I could easily add a song to one or more play list...
    Incredibly frustrating.

    When I plug the iPhone in the sync options comes up once, but once you leave you cant get it back.  There is phone icon in the top icon nave bar - but clicking on it does nothing.  What is the point of the icon if it does nothing?
    How do you get back to the sync options screen where you can select the music you want without having to disconnect and plug it back in again?
    It used to be easy...  More frustration...

  • Can apple tv sync with 2 Macs same iTunes user ???

    So I have a macbook pro with my main music library,photos,movies etc as well as an iMac with the same itunes user but a different music,movie etc content.
    I want to view(store on app tv)movies from the iMac because the laptop does not have room for the movies on it's internal HD. Can this be done? In other words can appletv sync with 2 computers?

    yes.
    or will it be to slow?
    that depends on various factors. signal strength and possible _*wireless interference*_ for example.
    however, TV comes with an ethernet port so if wireless doesn't work for you, you can hardwire TV to your computer or router.

  • ITunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone because your iPhoto Library is not yet available.

    I've turned my iPhone 4 into a iPod, meaning I only use it to hold music for my workouts. Ever since I've upgraded to Yosmite I can't sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes anymore. I can back it up, but I can't sync. Each time it tells me "iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone because your iPhoto Library is not yet available"  I don't want to sync any photos, just music.
    I've tried to repair my iPhoto Library, restarted my Mac, restarted my iPhone 4 but I still get his error message.
    In iTunes when I select my iPhone 4 > Photos, I just get a spinning wheel.
    Any thoughts??

    I can't follow the first link since I just get a spinning wheel for photos.

  • ITunes Radio icon disappears

    My iTunes radio icon disappears on iPhone5 ios7. It was there for several days, I used iTunes radio, now the icon is missing. I did a hard reboot and the icon reappears. Also, sometimes when the radio icon appears I select Radio and get the message, must be connected to data plan or wifi. I have both...lol...iTunes Radio seems to have many issues Apple needs to work on this app!

    Hello CoStarz,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the iTunes radio is not recognizing your wifi or cellular data connection.
    I think I would start by resetting your network settings, then use it for a while to see how it is working.
    Reset iPhone settings. Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose an option:
    Reset Network Settings:  When you reset network settings, previously used networks and VPN settings that weren’t installed by a configuration profile are removed. (To remove VPN settings installed by a configuration profile, go to Settings > General > Profile, then select the profile and tap Remove. This also removes other settings or accounts provided by the profile.) Wi-Fi is turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings remain turned on.

  • How do I use an Iphoto as my user icon??
