Mixed up photos in albums on iPhone

I sync a few select albums from my Mac to my iPhone. I noticed just this week that in one album, while the number of photos was correct, some of the photos came from another album! I unchecked the photo albums, synced, then rechecked them, and the correct photos were in the album again.
I'm just wondering what happened!

How things are displayed on the Phone is a matter for the Phone software. I'd ask that on the iPhone forum.

    How to import photo from album in Iphone into computer?

    You can't. You can import from the Camera Roll only.
    Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. These photos should remain on your computer and be included with your computer's backup.
    There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
    Here is one such utility.

  • My iPad is mixing up photos between albums

    Hey there
    iPad2, iPhoto 11, 10.6.7
    I'm syncing a bunch of smart albums from iPhoto to my iPad. The smart albums are based on events, with photos that are 5 star rankings.
    Anyway, in iPhoto, they all work great. But when I load the albums on the iPad, they're about 90% right. 10% of all albums have photos mixed in from other albums. It's frustrating as **** - I want to show people my photos, but I can't because they're not in any order!
    Help!
    -- james

    I got it - go to where your iPhoto library file is (typically
    ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library
    Right click on the iPhoto Library, click Show Package Contents
    DELETE the iPod Photo Cache
    Next time you sync your device it will take a very long time (recreating the photo cache) but the photos should be correct

  • Can photos in albums from iPhone be organized into the same album on Mac?

    I have set up IFTTT to save photos I am tagged in from Facebook and add them to an album "Facebook tags" on my iPhone. When I sync my iPhone to my Mac, I would like for these photos to also be placed in an album on my Mac called "Facebook tags". Is this possible? Right now, when I sync my iPhone, the photos just get included with other photos that are from my camera roll.

    You can solve this problem by making use of BOTH the "artist" field and the "album artist" field in iTunes.  In 95% of cases, they will be identical.  But when there are issues like you described -- the occasional guest artist, etc. -- then let the "artist" field handle that.  And let the "album artist" be the name of the main artist on the album.  Make sure all the songs in the album have the same "album artist", even if some of the songs have different "artists."  Your album will now contain all the songs.  I also utilize this feature when I am uploading a classical CD.  I use the artist field for the conductor, symphony orchestra, pianist, etc., who is actually performing on the album.  But I use the album artist for the actual composer of the music -- Beethoven, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, etc.  This works well, too.

  • How do i remove photo albums from Iphone that appear when syncing which I cannot prevent

    Iphone 4.  just synced with laptop and to my horror now have every photo from laptop in albums on my phone which i cannot remove.  Have gone back into sync mode and it wont let me access the albums on phone to delete.  Such ridiculous situation not to be able to delete by choice on phone.  Sync only repeats the process.  Not a happy iphone user.  Can anyone help and suggest a simple way to remove the albums.  Also what to do when syncing to avoid happening again. When syncing,  I dont seem to be able to access my iphone or chose what sync processes i want as the sync only happens as one process including the photos.  Is this a fault??  Cannot believe Apple would make this such a difficult process.  Help appreciated.

    Thanks but it wont let me choose and once the albums on iphone it wont let me remove..... any more thoughts??

  • I'm giving away my old iPhone 4.   I've deleted all my photos taken with the iPhone.  However, I can't delete the photo album which was taken with my Canon Camera and downloaded to my iPhone from my PC.  How can I remove this album?

    I am giving away my old iPhone 4 with IOS.7 installed. 
    I have deleted all my photos taken with this iPhone, however, I cannot delete
    a photo album I had downloaded from my computer to my iPhone 4.  I've tried via iTunes and
    I've tried to delete them in the same manner as I've deleted photos taken with the iPhone but
    not this album.   HELP  ?
    Thank you.

    You should erase all contents and setting before giving your iphone away.

  • How to delete a photo album from iPhone using a new hard drive & a later version of iTunes

    I'm using the same computer but with a new hard drive and a later version of iTunes. I previously loaded a photo folder from my PC to my iPhone, but I inadvertently did it twice, giving each folder a different name -- "Photo Library," and "Widget Photo Folder." Of course, I also have the "Camera Roll" folder on my iPhone. I now want to delete either the "Photo Library" or the "Widget Photo Folder" from my iPhone. On iTunes in the Photo tab, I don't have the option of deselecting the folder in my PC that I previously synced. Apparently, iTunes recognizes that the privious sync was not done with the new hard drive? How, then, do I remove one of the photo folders from the iPhone?

    You CANNOT delete photo album.  ALL pics synced to iphone are oin photo library.  Those exact same photos, NOT duplicates, can be accessed from the individual albums.
    This is how Apple handles photos.
    Just as a song is in a playlist and in the library ( there is only one song, simply two ways to access it), photos are in the library and the same photos can be accessed from the album.

  • I have an iPhone 4 with legacy photos in a DCIM file from iPhone 3.  When I try to import to my PC only the photos taken on the iPhone 4 are available/appear.  How do I get the DCIM album to download?

    I have an iPhone 4 with legacy photos from an iPhone 3 now stored as a DCIM file on the i/Phone 4.  When I try to download the photos to my PC only the photos taken with the iPhone 4 are recognized and downloaded.  I can still see all the photos on the DCIM file but my PC doesn't recognize them.  How do I download these old photos?

    I've tried both ways.  My Computer locates the device but doesn't see the old photos, only listing the new photos.
    I no longer have the iphone3; I just transferred the photos from the 3 to the 4. 
    Was there a format change or file type change or did the transfer process create something different?  I can still see and access the old photos if I go to that album on the phone.  But that's the only place where I can see them or access them.

  • Can not delete photos or albums sync from computer to iphone 4s

  • Sync issue - I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc.

    I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc. The photos taken do show up in My Photo Stream folder on my iphone and ipad. I have googled and noticed that this is quite a widespread problem.
    I must stress that I have never had a problem with photos from my iPhone not syncing with my pc before. This is the first time I have encountered this problem, so this has nothing to do with my Wi-Fi or my pc because nothing has changed in that respect. My pc's operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    6 days ago I took steps to try and kick start syncing again by uninstalling the iCloud panel on my pc.
    1. Uninstalled the iCloud panel.
    2. I saved all the photos that were in my My Photo Stream on my pc to another folder.
    3. Deleted the My Photo Stream folder.
    4. Rebooted.
    5. Downloaded  iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows from support Apple site and installed on my pc.
    6. Logged in to iCloud, set up syncing.
    7. Rebooted.
    I noticed that there is now a folder on my pc called iCloud Photos with subfolders which one is My Photo Stream as well as my share iPhone folders.
    The photos are still not syncing.
    I have only 34 photos in My Photo Stream on my pc.
    I have deliberately taken random photos over the last few days since the actions of uninstalling and re installing the iCloud panel.
    Out of a dozen which I took yesterday, only one has showed up in My Photo Stream on my pc. Only 6 photos out of  fifty photos which I have taken since uninstalling/reinstalling the iCloud panel have appeared in My Photo Stream on my pc.
    My iPhone shows that I have 980 photos in My Photo Stream so it shows that something is not quite right with syncing to the pc.
    Hopefully someone has an answer or a fix?
    Thanks for reading.

    Hi Amish,
    I should have mentioned that I have signed out of the iCloud Control Panel several times and no syncing occurs.
    Thanks for your response anyway. I appreciate your feedback.
