Missing "photo" tab in iTunes.

Hi guys,
I've just about tried everything on the web and I can't believe i can't find any answers!
I have no means of syncing photos from my PC to my iPhone using iTunes because the "Photos" tab does not appear. It has nothing to do with my screen resolution, or my iPhone not being connected properly... its just not there.
There are 8 tabs (from left to right) , namely "Summary", "Info", "Applications", "Ringtones", "Music", "Films", TV Programmes" and lastly "Podcasts".
I tried removing iTunes and reinstalling it but that doesn't work. Anyone with previous experience that has successfully repaired this issue?
I'm using Windows XP by the way.
HELP!!!!!

Thanks for the info, you're right, it must be the size of the expanded window for itunes. If you can't see the black border around the tabs on the far left and far right side, you can't be sure that all tabs are shown.

You don't see it on the left-hand side of iTunes - you need to connect and select the iPad on the left-hand side, and then one of the tabs on the right-hand side that you use to select which content to sync to the iPad should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
You will need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent sync remains on the iPad, not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from it.

Where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar

I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue. It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
This is incorrect.
The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.

How to show the photos tab in iTunes? Problem since ios 7 update.

Where is the photo tab on iTunes? My iPad is listed on the left side in iTunes, but there is no photos tab.
The left hand pane window in iTunes is maximized, but I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

Any sugegstions are greatly appreciated.
Note the same thing happens when I connect an iPod.

Don't worry, there is no duplication. Photo Library is just a summary all the photos from different folders that you have synced over. Right now you have synced only one folder to the library and therefore your Synced folder (14photos) is equal to Photos Library(14).
Say you have synced 3 folders, A(15), B(8), C(12), on you iPod you will have Albums 'photo Library (35), A(15), B(8), C(12). So you have an option to display slideshow of all photos by using Photo Library or just photos within particular folder by going into A or B or C. Hope above explains.

Missing Photos Tab

Any suggestions for how to fix the fact that my iphone does not show a photos tab in itunes?
As a matter of fact, it looks like itunes is just cut off within its frame. The summary tab vertically ends midway through the check for update button.
I am on a macbook and am running the latest mac os 10.6.1, itunes 9.02 and iphone software 3.1.2. iphone is 16GB 3gs model.
I had this same problem in itunes 9.01. Already tried deleting itunes and re-installing it. still no photos tab.
iphoto does open up and display the photos on my phone but that is the only action I get.

I had this problem on my Dell with Vista. After spending 5 1/2 hours, talking with Apple reps, googling for answers, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, and installing other photo programs, I came up with a simple idea that actually fixed the problem. It should have been my first fix rather than one that came to me 5 1/2 hours later. Always looking for a difficult answer when many times it is simple.
For those who are having this problem, go to "Controls" on your PC, find where to adjust screen resolution and slide the resolution bar gradually increasing resolution and amount of info that will appear on your computer screen. Before accepting, take a look at your iTunes page. The photo tab should appear in the extreme right hand corner. If not, keep adjusting until it does.

You need to plug your phone to your pc and then in itunes hit the photo tab and then sync the picture you want from your PC.
You can't do that process via the phone itunes.

Where is the photo tab in itunes 11

updated to new itunes 11 but the photo tab (which is usually on the top with summary, videos etc) is missing. how do i transfer photos form windows back to iphone?

I am having problems with this too. I have tried changing my screen resolution, and I can't find a way to resize the window. Grabbing the bottom, right corner of the screen didn't work either. I have read about 5 forums on this and can't seem to figure it out. Seems like a common problem. How else have you all suceeded in finding this tab?

Where is the photo tab on itunes? My device is not listed on the left side of my screen and there is no photos tab on the right of my screen. I want to delete photo albums that were synced through itunes to my ipad 3.

I synced several photo albums to my iPad 3 from my computer through iTunes. Now, I would like to remove them and have discovered that they cannot be removed except through using iTunes. Instructions that I've read say that once the device is connected to and selected from the list in iTunes, select the Photo Tab and then the folder that contains the photos etc. I never get that far because I do not have a Photo Tab to select in iTunes. How do I find this illusive tab so that I can delete these albums that are merely duplications of other pictures and are just occupying space. I need to get rid of them. Can anyone help me find the photo tab. I cannot move past that step until I do. Also, my device is not listed on the left side as stated in the instructions. It's in the bar on the upper right area of my screen and is automatically selected when connected. I am using the current version 11.1 for iTunes and IOS 7 on my iPad 3, if that helps.

I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

HT201317 I guess photo stream made the photo tab in ITunes 11 unecessary; correct? I spent more than an hour looking for it.

is that correct? I spent an hour looking for it and thought maybe it was a glitch in the new app or ios.

However, I'm not sure what the itunes photos add, if one is using photostream.
The iTunes photos tab lets you download any photos that were on the iPhone before Photo Stream was introduced or do a total download of your iPhone's photos if you haven't done so previously. It's also for us "control freaks".

Where is the photo tab in Itunes 12.0.1.26 ? (Windows 7, iphone 5s)

Hello. I'm searching for a way to get my photos _from_ my iphone 5s in iTunes. I don't see the photo tab on my iphone. Where can I find it ?
Here is what I see in my itunes:

Your screenshot shows the option for iTunes to use a folder to put photos from the computer to your iPhone.
With the phone connected to your computer, you should see an external drive listed in Windows Explorer. Look in there for photos taken on the phone that you wish to transfer to the computer.

I have no photos tab on itunes how do I get photos

Hello to the helpful people out there
I have an itunes account and there is no photos tab how do I get it back or is it an upgrade? thanks

If you are on iTunes 11 on your Mac then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar, which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos
