Missing photos in iPad after syncing

Using Photos, with REFERENCED files. Syncing ALL 5500 photos to my iPad. All albums are present in iPad but SOME albums are missing some photos. All in all, my Photos Library on my mac contains 5500 photos, and the list of photos on my iPad contains 4800 (missing 700 photos). No error message. When syncing in iTunes, I see photos going b: 1 of 5500, 2 of 5500... up to 4800 of 5500, then the progress bar jumps to completion instantly and the syncing stops normally.
I did a sync to iPad with zero photo and a resync with Photos (success, as expected) to start afresh. Same error.
I did a sync to a different iPad. Got a slightly different result, but still missing a few hundred photos.
No iCloud syncing involved.
Please?

The problem seems to be "self healing". I did 4 syncs in a row without success last weekend (always missing the same number of photos), but a few days later, one more sync, and now an additional several hundred photos are being transferred. I think I have them all now. Waving a dead chicken over the computer, while dancing, does work.

  • IPhoto '11 Deletes All Albums, Events And Photos From iPad after Sync

    In addition to many of the other issues mentioned on this thread, today I synced my iPad for the first time since upgrading to iPhoto '11. After syncing, all the photos, events and albums except for "Imported Photos" were deleted.
    In iTunes, the iPad is set to sync albums and events from the last 12 months.
    iPhoto '11 has been a horror show for me. I use iPhoto daily and am currently in the process of downgrading via Time Machine.
    I understand that as a professional photographer I should be using Aperture or Lightroom, but I've just always felt comfortable with iPhoto.

    I really wish I hadn't jumped on this the first day. I need to wait a little bit and read the forums. Had I done this, I would've done a complete clone of my photo library prior to this. now I've lost a few months worth of photos, which *****. And there are people in a lot worse situations than I. Lesson learned.

    You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

  • I have deleted all photos off my ipad but it is still showing 5 gig of photos in itunes after syncing

    I have deleted all the photos in my ipad and it is still showing 5 gig of photos in itunes even after syncing.

    I don't see an issue, but if you mean why didn't you get most of your memory back you need to see what else is using storage. Go to Settings/General/Usage. Wait a bit for it to calculate storage allocation, then when it finishes you can see how much storage each app uses.

  • Folder does not appear in keynote on iPad after syncing

    After syncing a keynote file through iTunes, it appears in iTunes on my mac book pro but the folder of imported files does not appear in keynote on my iPad. I have tried creating file names with no spaces and using .key suffix, no joy. any ideas?
    Thanks

    you dont see that folder. It is a holding place for files. you import into the app using the "copy from itunes" command in the main file view of the app. (the little button that looks like an arrow pointing into an empty box will bring it up.)
    Your just copying from that folder you see in itunes. I use it as a location to "back up" my work as well. just "send to itunes" and you have a copy of your current state in the folder.

  • Movies do not run and cover art is missing in iTunes Mac after sync with iPad

    I down load purchased movies from Apple to my iPad.  The movies runs fine and cover art is visible.  Great.  However, after I sync with my Mac Mini, the cover art on my iPad is missing.  The cover art in the iTunes library on my Mac Mini is missing, and the movies won't run on the Mac Mini.  Whe I re-sync, I get a message that says the movie can't sync because it can't be found.

    Is your album cover issue resolved?
    If not, have you perhaps tried to disable iTunes Match on your iPhone (in Settings) and signed out of your Apple ID (on the phone)? This might work.
    The issue seems to be that the iTunes Match server does not update all the tracks with the new album cover art, particularly if you added the covers some time after importing the CD's (remember then that there was no cover art on some of them!)
    Another possible solution is to rename the iTunes database (.itl file) by appending say "old" (without the quotes) and recreate a new one with maybe 1 or 2 albums, wait for the server to match the tracks (you can check on your iPhone after disabling and then re-enabling iTunes Match on the phone), then delete the 1 or 2 albums so that the iTunes music library is empty and wait again; you can check the iPhone again.
    Finally, quit iTunes, delete the latest database and rename the original database with its original name (by removing the "old" appendage).
    Then let iTunes Match reload the server with all the information: this might take a few minutes (hours?) depending on the size of the library.
    In the meantime you can remove all the music on the iPhone by disabling iTunes Match in the phone's settings.

  • Blurry photos on iPad after import

    After importing pictures from iPhoto or a separate folder, many photos take several seconds to come into focus when viewing. This makes it useless to try to view in slideshow format. Is there something I am missing? These are hi-res photos taken with a high end camera. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

  • Will photos, albums and photo stream remain after sync

    I have created photo albums on iOs5 with selected pictures from photos I imported from my SD card while traveling. Will the photos, photo stream and albums remain intact on my iPad when I sync them to my iMac?

    From various sources (doing a google search)
    You are having a photo stream folder in your Album because you have enable Photo Stream in iCloud. By default, after you make a picture it will of course be save in your camera roll folder, then because photo stream is enable in iCloud which is also active on your iPhone, your pictures will be send to the iCloud server, and iCloud have the responsibility to share those pictures with all your iDevices which are sharing the same iCloud account with your iPhone, iCloud will find that your iPhone is sharing that iCloud and so will share those new pictures in the iCloud with your iPhone to including other iDevices which sharing your iCloud account. Thus you will see that those pictures already present in your camera roll are appearing in the Photo stream folder.
    You will not be able to delete those pictures, it will auto delete from the iCloud after a period of time.
    If you do not want to see the photo stream there anymore, then just turn off Photo stream in iCloud and it will go away.
    Photo library is the collection of all photos in iPhoto and an album is what you can create to store some of the photos in a library, like a folder stores files.

  • Is there a way to import photos to iPad without syncing to iTunes?

    I have pictures on my MacBook Pro that my friend would like to have on her iPad. There are A LOT of pictures. I have read the article about syncing photos via iTunes. In that article, it says that "syncing photos with a different computer or user replaces the photos on the device." Deleting current photos on her iPad is not an option. Emailing the photos and then saving them on the Ipad would take too long.
    Is there a way (other than emailing or syncing the iPad via iTunes) to get thoes pictures from my MacBook Pro to her iPad?
    MacBook Pro (Mid 2010) with OS X Mavericks (10.9)
    iPad 2 with iOS 6.1.3

    Yes there is. Use iCloud Photo Stream. You can share up to 1,000 photos in one album, up to 100 albums with up to 100 people per album.
    You must first make sure you have iCloud Photo Sharing switched on in iPhoto.
    1. iPhoto Preferences > iCloud > Photo Sharing (check box ticked)
    2. Create an Album with the photos of your friend (up to 1,000 photos)
    3. Follow instuctions from this Apple Help link to "Create a shared photostream" http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.5/#phtf7fe6394
    4. Your friend will receive an invitation to accept your shared photostream and once accepted all the photos will appear on your friends iPad.
