ITunes will quit while syncing photos

Hi.
For some reason when i try syncing my ipod touch to my itunes,
everything usually works out fine, but when i try syncing a pictures folder which contains maybe about a thousand photos, halfway through syncing itunes will simply quit and i will have to relaunch it.
It does not quit at a specific file, which i had previously suspected but simply quits for no reason after syncing for a short period of time.
Restarting the mac does not help.
Thanks.

Deadly_B . . . Apple eng is aware of a bug I reported to them back in Aug which is similar to the problem you encountered. The problem I reported occurs when you use add folder and specify a UNC location for the directory and then try and sync its contents, in my case mp3 files, to the ipod. In my case, the itunes sync process just skips all the songs specified with the UNC and reports no errors after syncing tghe rest of the other songs specified with drive letter mapping.
itune's 2nd level support said mime was the only report of the UNC bug and as they follow the squeaky wheel approach to correcting bugs they didn't envision the bug being fixed anytime soon.
So, give itunes 2nd level support a call and complain about this common problem. Then should fix the bug if enough folks call and complain about it.
To work around the bug you might try removing the photo's from itunes, map a permanant drive letter to the network location of the photo's, then use the "add folder" function specifying the newly mapped drive letter and the network location of the files.

  • 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?

    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.

  • I can not import photos from PC to my Ipad, it says iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    I can not import photos from my PC to the iPad, it says  iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    YES Terence!  Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option. 
    I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs.  I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly.  I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working. 
    Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?!  I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires. 
    Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.

  • Ipod and itunes(especially itunes)will freeze while syncing

    i pod and itunes will freeze while syncing, all apps are there, but no music?Itunes says ipod has latest updates, I reinstalled  Itunes, powered off/ sleep  a couple times still not syncing any help? Thanks

    Which application are you watching the videos..... QuickTime, VLC, etc.?  Which version?  If QT are you using v10 or v 10.7.x?  The latter is located inside your Utilities folder.  If using VLC, you should  be using the latest version. 
    Type of video files = .mov, .mp4, .mkv, etc.?

  • ITunes will no longer sync photos to "my" iPod

    I get this message when I try to sync photos (Aperture3). The options are grayed out. iPod touch 2.2.1 version/ OSX 10.6.8 iMac24 duo core. iPod is almost empty(14gb avail) Anyone having this problem? Any solution?

    Assuming they are in a [compatible file format|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2335] I would try [deleting the ipod photo cache|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314]. In Windows go to Pictures>iPod Photo Cache.
    Hope this solves your problem.

  • Itunes will no longer sync photos from my pc "my pictures" folder to my iphone 4

    Itunes previously synced my selected photos with no problem. It now optimises a proportion of the photos, then just stops working and shuts down. Any ideas, anyone?

  • IPAD2 since yesterday seems to have stopped allowing transfers of photos from anything other than another Apple product and comes up with the message2 itunes will no longer sync photos....which are not transferred from a Mac? Looks as if there is a prob

    IPAD2 since yesterday seems to have stopped transfers of photos from non Mac equipment. I use dell with ITunes cloud facility.
    Any ideas or are we to await Mac correcting the software?

    Okay, can someone please give a useful answer? Thanks! I have been experiencing exactly the same problem for some time now, and it is very annoying. Furthermore, I would like to point out to Chris CA that there is absolutely nothing ambiguous about the original post.
    So here is the deal. I used to be able to burn CDs with iTunes that played back fine on both my car and home stereo. After some update, and I am very sorry but I really do not remember which one, as I am just a user and not a programmer and just want something that works, which in the end Apple used to be all about, and therefore do not keep track of all the updates, CDs won't play back on my car stereo. Nothing else changed, still the same brand of CDs (even the same stack!), still the same car stereo, and still the same 2007 MBP. So by simple deduction I conclude it must be a software update. And I do not care what the exact cause is, I just want a fix!
    I'd like to apologize for my tone in the above, but it is just a very annoying problem, even more so because it seems nothing is being done about it. Thanks for your answer in advance!

  • 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 will no longer sync my music to my brand new iPad.

    Itunes will no longer sync to my brand new iPad.  Synched with old one just fine.  Goes through process and finishes but still no music and no error.  Tried selecting specific artists or songs and same. Have lastest software on both. Running Windows 7 Ultimate.  Tried reinstalling iTunes, nothing is working.  I had previously used iTunes Match but that was locking up my computer so I've since turned it off on the iPad so that I could have all of my music, not just the 300 or so that Match decided to add.  I'm really frustrated with these latest software updates, what the heck is going on over there?

    when you open the sync option go to pictures and make sure all of them are checked

  • Suddenly my iTunes will no longer sync video taken on the iPhone. Why?

    Suddenly my iTunes will no longer sync video taken on the iPhone. Why?

    I have this question too.  I made my own video on my iPhone 4S.  I want to put it on my iPad.  I synced it to my iPhoto, and trying now to move it to iPad.  The computer WILL NOT do this.  Why not? I occasionally get messages it's not in a correct format, but for God's sake, I filmed it on the phone, in whatever format Apple uses.  ***?
