My iPhone showing more pics than are really on the phone

I only have about 300 pics on my phone, but the storage shows 4GB used on the phone, and when i view via iTunes, it shows i have over 1300?  I have deleted all the photos in the "deleted" folder, as well as iMessages.  I have restarted my phone, hard reset, just about everything I know to do, and it still is the same.  I have seen the same issue other places, but no real solutions.

Before you unplug the phone you have to sync it with iTunes.

  • ITunes thinks iPhone has more music than it really does, and won't sync

    I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 7.1, and am running iTunes 11.1.5 on Mavericks.
    I was using iTunes Match on the iPhone, but I don't want to do so any more because I have acquired a lot of music that I can't upload to iTunes Match. (This is because my wife has her own iTunes Match account, and Apple won't allow two different iTunes Match accounts to be used simultaneously on the same computer, even under different user accounts. So because my wife uses her iTunes Match account under her user account on the same computer, I cannot activate my own iTunes Match account and upload my additional music.)
    So I turned off iTunes Match on the phone. I then went into Settings - General - Usage - Music and deleted all the music on the phone.
    The phone now shows as having no music on it at all, both in Settings and in the Music app itself.
    I hooked the phone up to iTunes in order to sync a new load of music onto it. Under "Summary", the usage bar shows no music on the phone at all, and a total of 10.99 GB free. This is exactly as expected.
    I have ticked "Sync only checked songs and video". In my iTunes library, only ten songs are checked. So I am attempting to put only ten songs onto the phone (for now).
    I go over to the "Music" tab of the phone. I check "Sync Music". Suddenly a huge blue bar appears at the bottom, and it now says I'm over capacity by 975.8 MB. And yet at the top of the screen, next to "Sync Music", it also says "10 songs". So it knows I only want to put 10 songs on the phone, and yet it thinks that this is too much for the 10.99 GB free space on the phone.
    Heading over to the "On This iPhone" tab of the phone, I see that all of the music that I previously deleted from the phone is showing up here, even though it's no longer on the phone. If I double-click on any of the items, they don't play, and an exclamation mark symbol appears next to them, indicating that the tracks aren't actually present. If I right-click on any of the items, the only options I have are to play them, get info, check the rating, or show in iTunes Store. There's no delete option.
    It looks like, as long as I don't try to sync the iPhone, iTunes recognises that there's no music on it, and it's got over 10 GB of free space. But as soon as I try to sync it, iTunes thinks that the old, deleted music is still on it, and that I therefore have no space to put anything more on. So it refuses to sync any music to the phone, even though there's plenty of space for it.
    I have tried ejecting the phone, restarting it, and remounting it. I have also tried signing out of my account on the phone and signing back in. It makes no difference. I don't know what else to do.
    So I can't sync the iPhone. What's going wrong, and what can I do to make it work?

    Same problem here. Mine is a iPhone 5s......

  • Why does my iTunes show more photos than I really do on my device?

    I only have 493 photos on my device but my iTunes shows that I have 644 and a lot of memory is used because of that? Any reason why this happens and how I might be able to delete the extra photos?

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

  • Photo library shows more photos than it really has

    My photo library has 41 photos, however when checking "Usage" it shows I have 10.4Gb. Why?
    The complete Photo & Camera shows:
    1. Photo Library = 10.4 Gb
    2. My Photo Stream = 20.1 Mb
    3. Shared Photo Stream = 821 Mb
    when checking via iTunes, it shows I have 3801 photos, where are they? I know they are not the in recently deleted album.
    Any ideas?

    Hi rfirmeza,
    It may help to force close all open apps and restart your iPhone.
    Force an app to close in iOS

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1430
    If you're still seeing a discrepancy in the number of photos on your device and storage space used, the next step would be to reinstall iOS on your device by placing it in Recovery Mode, then choosing Update in iTunes.
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on

  • CODE RED: Online album showing more pics than what I upload??????

    Overview: I just (very) recently upgraded to PSE7, from 5. I used Vista's transfer file mechanism to get info from one PC to another. Upon doing this, I lost all version sets and everything came in as single photos.
    Now that I've been 'working it' for a couple days, I now have new version sets of newly edited work. When I try to move an image into a new catalogue, the entire set and/or stack moves with it whereas in 5, I only got the one image I selected... weird.
    Today I created an online album for private viewing and it seems the above is taking place with it too. I went back and separated everything by undoing versions sets and unstacking stacks,,, but I still get a couple of unwanted images in this OL album - WTH is that all about???
    I really need to get this online album thing figured out ASAP.
    Thanks for the incoming help.

    Overview: I just (very) recently upgraded to PSE7, from 5. I used Vista's transfer file mechanism to get info from one PC to another. Upon doing this, I lost all version sets and everything came in as single photos.
    To move your PSE catalog from one catalog to another, you can't simply move the files.  See this tech note for how to move your catalog (and upgrade from PSE 5 to 7):
    http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_kb402894_en-us
    The note is written for PSE 6 but applies equally to PSE 7. There are special notes about upgrading to a new version and from XP to Vista.
    If you care about recovering your tags, dates/times, version sets, and stacks, it might be worth your while to do this conversion (but you'll lose any recent version sets and stacks you've made).
    When I try to move an image into a new catalogue, the entire set and/or stack moves with it whereas in 5, I only got the one image I selected
    Can you explain what you mean by "move an image into a new catalog"?  What are the precise commands you're giving to do that?

  • Why does my exported swf show more content than actually on frame?

    Why does my exported .swf show more content than actually on frame?
    My problem is relatively simple, though, I had some trouble finding a solution to it:
    When I play my exported animation using flash player in Google Chrome, if the window is bigger than the resolution flash document/frame, it shows content not meant to show up on the frame -- like parts of a huge background that aren't supposed to show up yet.
    In other words, how do I constraint the .swf to the white background/document resolution?

    Anyone? I'd appreciate it if someone replied soon -- I am done with my project once this issue is resolved, and I am excited to publish it.
    Please respond if you have any useful knowledge on the matter!
    Thanks!

    In the Event mode use the View ➙ Sort ➙ By Date ➙ Decending menu option.  Then the latest imports will be near the top of the Event window (depending on when the photos were taken of course). 
    Or Control-Click on one of the thumbnails in the Last Import album and select Show Event from the contextual menu:

  • Spreadsheet contains more formulas than are supported?

    I have just purchased Numbers for my i-phone from the itunes store and imported (or attempted to import) my first spreadsheet. Its a simple sheet that deals with my household accounts. The import fails - reporting that the "spreadsheet contains more formulas than are supported". What does this mean? Given that this is a very simple and uncomplicated sheet and yet it seems too complex to be handled suggests an error of some sort. Surely it must be capable of importing this???

    This is a limitation of Numbers.  You could change the original spreadsheet before importing into Numbers.

  • HT5622 Hello! I change my ID Apple and now when I try to make an update, Iphone show me my old ID and ask the password. Why is that? Why the phone don't see my new ID Apple?

    Hello! I change my ID Apple and now when I try to make an update, Iphone show me my old ID and ask the password. Why is that? Why the phone don't see my new ID Apple? I can not make any update because the old Apple ID don't work any more. I check and I have my new user all over in my phone. Help me please!

    All apps are tied to the Apple ID that downloaded them.
    They can not be transferred to a new Apple ID.
    You will have to use the Apple ID and password used to download them.
    If you do not wish to do so, erase them and download them under the new ID. This will wipe any data in the app and you will have to pay for them again.

    Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!

  • How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

    How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
    Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
    Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
    There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

    Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
    The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
    However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one
