LR Mobile update-Can't adjust old (pre-synced) photos

Hi,
I have LR 5.6 on my desktop and have just updated to LR Mobile 1.2.0 on my iPad (iOS 8 update). I am now unable to edit any of the photos that were previously synced prior to the updates being installed. The photos are there, but the adjustment strips are greyed out. New collections synced post update are working OK. I have reset the LR sync settings under my iMac system library files, but it makes no difference. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

Could you try to remove the sync.lrdata file and restart Lr Desktop. This would restart/refresh the sync (metadata only).
Removing the Sync.lrdata might fix whatever the issue is. Or, at least, might trigger it to occur again. So remove the Sync.lrdata, start Lr desktop, and then wait until it either syncs or gets stuck again and create at this point a Lr Desktop diagnostic log which can hopefully provide some clues.
You can find the sync.lrdata file here:
On Mac it's at /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/Adobe/Lightroom/Sync Data/Sync.lrdata
On Win it would be at C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Lightroom\Caches\Sync Data\Sync.lrdata
Please send me a LR Desktop diagnostig log - best as a private message with a downloadable dropbox link.
You can trigger the log via LR Desktop preferences -> Lightroom Mobile and when you hold down the alt key you will notice a generate diagnostic log button

Can I adjust size of the photos on front page of the photo album template?

When I am working on a Photo Album page, how can I make the "front page" photos larger? I am talking about the photos arranged in rows, not the photos that show in the slide show carousel. Is it a set size in the Photo Album template or is it a consequence of how large a photo I set into the page?
Also, how is "large" defined? Is it about inches, or is it about resolution?

I found the large too large and the small too large.
How large do you want them Lorna?
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, where did you go to check to see that the large was indeed too large and the small too large? What method of adjusting the size are you using?
If you want them really large, why don't you just
plonk the real photo on the page sized as large as
you wish, and you can always link it to its own page
with an even larger version!!
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, actually I misstated in my first post. Actually I would not like the photos in the Photo page to be too large, because then no one will be motivated to click onto the See Slideshow button.
My mind is getting so crammed with input and other people's websites that I now cannot even recall with certainty which pictures I wanted larger. 8-( Oh, this is giving me a cramped-in-the-chest feeling. I had best take a break now and finally eat a legitimate meal.

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.

Backwards sync??? Taking pre-synced photos off iPhone

Long story short, I have a few hundred pics from my PC synced to my iPhone, formatted my HDD, didn't back up photos. D'oh! Does anybody know ANY WAY of taking the photos that were previousely synced from the PC (i.e. NOT shot from the iPhone's camera) and putting them back on the PC? My backup CD for photos is like a year old.
I know Apple's products aren't designed to do simple things like this, which is why iPhone is the only Apple product I have, but I know there are also usually ways to get around it. I remember a friend found a way to get his music off of his iPod because he lost everything on his PC. This is the same deal, only replace iPdo with iPhone and music with photos. Thanks guys

The following may be what you've already tried, but just in case it's not -- or even if it is, there may be a step or option missed: The quote below is from http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4236
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.
To delete Camera Roll photos and videos from your device
There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
Import the Camera Roll to your computer and choose to delete items after import.
Delete photos and videos from your device manually:
Open the Photos application and open the Camera Roll.
Tap the Action button.
Tap each photo to select it.
Tap the Delete button.
Note: For photos and videos you want to save, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll

ITunes erased my contacts/calendar, how can I revert to pre-sync?

Hello all,
My Powerbook's hard drive recently took a dump on me, which was upsetting enough as I had many useful papers on there, but fortunately I did backups of my pics/music library. I sent my computer off to Apple for repair--under Applecare fortunately--and spent the last few days setting up the OS to the way I had it pre-crash.
Anyways, one bright spot (I thought) was the fact the I still had a good/current copy of my contacts and calendar on my iPod. So I plugged my iPod into my freshly configured Powerbook, enabled syncing of Addressbook/Calendar in iTunes and proceeded to update my iPod... BIG MISTAKE. Instead of asking me how I wanted to sync my computer and iPod--for example, did I want to keep contacts and cal events on my iPod and apply them to my mac? YES! Etc Etc. iTunes simply replaced my iPod's contact and calendar files with my Powerbook's blank versions, great. So now I've lost my contacts and calendar in addition to many undergrad papers. I used to think that Palm's Hotsync software was the worst in terms of options and usability, but after this I believe that Apple could learn a lot from Palm.
I've tried Norton Util 8 to do an unerase on my ipod to check for the old version of my contacts file--no go.
I've tried DiskWarrior, nothing.
I've tried (and am currently still trying) Data Rescue II, so far nothing.
Things are looking real good about now, starting to get little upset here.
Any ideas?
-Evan

Well after a Thorough Search, Data Rescue II eventually found an older version of my iSync file on my iPod, which I was able to restore and import into my Address Book. Good thing I only really needed one file (although my calendar would be nice too) because the DRII demo only allows you to recover one file that is <5MB.
I still can't believe that there are no real priority options when syncing your iPod...

App on ipad keeps crashing during update, can't delete it or sync ipad

It's a game off of Big Fish Games, called The Red Riding Hood Sisters: Dark Parables. I was able to load it properly and play it for a bit. When it asked me to update it, I did, but it barely started before it said it couldn't be updated. It's still shaded though, and every time I click on it, it says it's unable to download. It doesn't give any reason. Because of this, I can't sync anything on my ipad. It's constantly on step three of transferring my purchases in itunes, and I can't edit any apps that I downloaded after this started happening.
Note that I have the first genertion ipad, so there is a chance that it's just too old and I have to give it up. I don't actually expect Apple to pay any attention to anyone who doesn't buy their new things...

I have the new iPad so I can't shut it off with the Sleep/Wake button which it doesn't have.
Ah ... yes ..... it does have a power button. Every iPad has the same sleep/power button in the same place on the iPad. I'm happy that you found a solution .... but maybe you should download this for reference.

How can I put old albums into Photo Stream?

It used to be so easy to synch photos to my various devices: iPod touch, iPhone, iPad from my computer using iTunes. I could select the albums I wanted on each device, and there they were! But, iTunes now tells me that it no longer synchs photos. When I go to iPhoto and try to put old photos in the Photo Stream, it takes forever, and the photos in an album are all scrambled. It's like starting over. There has got to be an easier way -- what is it?

Web Galleries published in iPhoto are in the order that the web gallery albums are in iPhoto - if you drag a web gallery into a different position and sync the web gallery matches the order
I do not know how iWeb handles the order -- try web galleries and see how they work for you

How can I adjust resolution of my photo's in iPhoto?

Hello,
I can't find where to resize my photo's in iphoto. I want to make my 6MB photo's smaller to post them on the internet.
Pls help, thanks!!
Anoek

File -> Export.
In the Export dialogue you have two options that will effect file size. One: Jpeg Quality, which allows you to choose the level of compression you want applied to the file. Size is about the dimensions of the photo - obviously, smaller dimensions, smaller file.
Complete the export to the desktop and export from there.

Can someone help in deleting synced photos from iPhone4?

I have some pictures on my iphone4 that were synced from computer A. That computer is no longer available...Is there a way to delete them by using a different computer to un-sync them. They cannot be deleted directly from the phone either.

dbs2071 wrote:
The old computer is gone and not available. So I guess I will lose all of my pics if I want to delete a few correct?
Yes.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Did you faile to do this?
Not good at all.
You can e-mail the pics to yourself. They will never be of the original quality as they are reduced in quality when synced to iphone.

Can't find file to sync photos - why not?!?

I recently re-organised my photos on my PC & changed the file location for the photos to sync to my iPod. I reconnected the iPod & it went through to organise the photos in a new photo cache as I would expect...but then when it went to actually move the pictures onto the iPod, I get told 'can't find file' and so it does not sync
I can see the pics in the cache, the location of the photos on iTunes is right, but they don't seem to talk to each other & so nothing happens
anyone seen this before or have any suggestions??
thanks
Ian

ok one more question
The file syncing issue now seems to be resolved & the ipod connects to the PC without too much argument now
the only outstanding issue is that I have seom videos within my pictures. Previously these existed within the Pictures folder, but I could still play them
However now this doesn't happen & in the Pictures folder I just get the first frame of the video, without being able to play them. I don't know why suddenly it won't play them
They are all in mp4 format. as most are home videos I wanted to keep them in the Pictures folder rather than move them into the official Videos section
thanks

Cannot sync photos to Lightroom mobile

I have recently installed lightroom on my laptop and on the first time of use, have successfully created several albums that I shared to LR Mobile on my iPad. However since that first time I cannot make any photos sync to LR Mobile. I have removed the previously synced photos and still nothing comes across? HELP...

I rebooted my iPhone and my MacBookPro. I then syncd just one event; about 300 photos. It worked!
So, I then selected All Photos, and it appears to be working, as I can see "copying photo 744 etc. of 5,116"....and it's moving along. Previously, I did not get this counter, just a busy bar, like it was working but seemed frozen.
Thanks.

I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight (iMac5,1) to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old system parts. I have zapped PRAM. The blue indicator in system audio panel will appear for a second as I slide the bar for internal mic but then it disappears. Is there a fix?

The sound seems very faint but can here static on playback.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

Does it go through properly this time?

I am unable to update my album art since I commenced using match (and after upgrading to Yosemite). How can I 'unembed' old cover art and replace?

I am unable to update my album art on my iMac since I started using Match (and after upgrading to Yosemite 10.10.3). A message advises that it's not possible to removed old artwork if it's embedded. How can I 'unembed' old cover art and replace?

Normally artwork recovered with iTunes is stored as a separate artwork file and iTunes refers to that file to display artwork when you click on a track. However, if you then copy the file to another player the artwork file is left behind and the track will not display the artwork on the other player. To get around this it is possible to embed the artwork in the music file itself so it always travels with the file. Artwork can be embedded by you or files from third party sources may arrive with embedded artwork. iTunes apparently now won't replace artwork for such files. You can accomplish this by completely deleting artwork for a file or set of files in Get Info, then getting iTunes to fetch artwork which will then be set as a reference file rather than being embedded.
I use an old iTunes so unless you are using an ancient iTunes it won't help for me to give you great details. To erase artwork I simply get info on a series of files and check the box next to the artwork box without adding any artwork and close. To do it for single file I Get Info, go to the artwork display tab and click delete. Here's a Windows reference for a newer iTunes (but the "old Get Info" reference is for early iTunes 12 and no longer works with newer):I cannot delete embedded album artwork in iTunes 12

I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.
