My iphoto wont sync iphone photos

My iphoto used to automatically open and give me the option to sync photos from my iphone but now not only does it not open automatically, but it doesn't even recognize my phone or give me an option to sync. Please help!

What version of iPhoto?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Iphoto wont save imported photos from iphone

Iphoto will import iphone photos, but as soon as iphoto is closed the photos are not saved to iphoto. Therefore I cannot download my photos off my iphone to iphoto. How do I get iphoto to keep the pics I import from my iphone?

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database
And OS X 10.6.8 is an OS - it is not a version of iPhoto - you version of iPhoto is something like 9.x.x or 8.x.x

IPhoto not syncing to photos app on iPhone

I'm trying to see my shared photo folders from iPhoto on my iPhone 6 using the photos app but under sharing, the iPhoto shared photos don't show up under Shared. I've made sure I'm using the same account on all devices and Mac and enabled sharing. What gives?

Ok, in iPhoto I created a photo stream called My Cruise which I shared with those on the cruise. They can see those photos.
In the Photo app on my iPad, using the Photo App, I can see the photos. On my iPhone, however, they're not showing up. This is on my phone. When I look on my iPad, I can see all my shared albums.
I even turned off Sharing and turned it back on and nothing shows up. I'm using wifi if that even matters.

HELP! iTunes won't show iPhoto when syncing iPhone 6

PLEASE HELP!! I know this has been covered to some degree in other threads, but I haven't been able to solve this. My iTunes will not sync my iPhoto Library wih my iPhone 6.
Basically, I bought a new iPhone 6, which was restored from backup. I was never an avid user of iPhoto in the past and because most of my photos come from a different camera and most of my pictures have been compiled through time, I never really saw the point in filling up my measly 16gb iPhone 4s with a bunch of pictures. So I never really synced my photos in the past.
Now that I have a 128GB iPhone 6 I figured I could start sycing my pics and share them or whatever. I'd like to able to sync to my iPhoto Library via iTunes to my iPhone.
So this is what happens. I can see my photos fine on iPhoto. When I connect my iPhone, only iPhoto launches and it 'll download any recent pics.
When I launch iTunes, it'll detect my phone - BUT when I go to the Photos tab, when trying to sync to my iPhoto Library, the ONLY option I am given is to sync to "PICTURES" folder which contains my 'desktop pictures' folder with only 40 some pics... BUT IT ALSO HAS MY IPHOTO LIBRARY WHICH ITUNES WILL NOT PICKUP ON???
Am I missing something?? thanks everybody in advance for helping me.

When I go through Media... It shows me iPhoto and Photo Booth icon but prompts me to open iPhoto to see the photos... even though as you can see from the window in the background iPhoto is open....
And thanks very much for taking the time to help btw...

Problems syncing iPhone photos

Hi, I recently bought a new iMac (January 2014). My iPhone 4S was syncing photos with my old iMac fine. But now with the new iMac, my iPhone photos are unable to sync. Anyone experienced similar problems? Any idea on how to resolve?
Thanks!

Sorry the photos taken from my iPhone are going into iPhoto's, but when I want to upload my albums in iPhoto into my iPhone, it is not working. There's no error message or anything, it just cannot be done.

Syncing iphone photos with Lightroom3mac

Or is there a better forum to ask this question?

For managing audio and video contents of the iPod and iPhone you can find some lighter and faster alternatives to iTunes.

Syncing iPhone photos with Dropbox

Hello All,
I just switched from 6 years of Android to iPhone this week and am in the process of getting everything just as I like it. Two things i'm strugling with are:
Syncing with Dropbox: I had on my android an app called DropSync which synced all my photos and anything I chose to a specific folder in dropbox and vice-versa. Is there a way or an app that does the same thing where I can sync the albums I made on my iphone with dropbox folders over the cellular network automatically. Please advise.
Syncing Google contacts: Any tips on solid apps to sync my google contact to my phonebook without creating duplicates - or maybe an app that detects duplicates and merges them on my iphone address book.
Thank you all in advance!

IPhoto not syncing certain photos to iPad/Apple TV/iPod Touch

I have an Event which contains a mix of photos and movies imported from my Canon camera (as I have done successfully in the past). The strange thing is that many of the photos of this particular Event do not sync to my iPad, Apple TV, or iPod Touch. (I'm not syncing the movies.) This has always worked in the past.
I tried rebulding the iPhoto Library, but it seems to get stuck at 55%. The one work around that I found could work is to drag one of the photos that don't sync out of the Event in iPhoto onto my desktop. Then, I re-import it. That photo then shows up on my devices when I sync them. However, I would think I don't have to do this. Any thoughts?
The only difference that I think might be affecting the sync is that I previously uploaded the photos from my Canon camera to my iPad via the iPad Camera Connection Kit as an easy way to quickly upload my photos to Facebook while I was away. When I got home, I then imported them into iPhoto from the Camera --not the iPad -- as I have done in the past. However, as mentioned above, when I go to sync the photos to my devices, many of them don't show up.
Tony

Note that I am not getting any error messages when I sync such as the photo being too big or the wrong format. I'm using the same format/camera/etc as I have always done and even recent photos that I have imported work fine. The only difference is using the iPad Camera Connection Kit.

Iphoto wont sync with iphone "missing file"

I updated to ilife 11 then my iphone would not sync with iphoto. I tried to restore my iphone still will not sync and says it is missing a file.
I created a file on my desktop and put pics so I could have some pics on my phone until i resolve this issue. If anyone could help I would be ever so grateful!

1. Go to where your iPhoto Library is stored.
2. R-click and show package contents.
3. Delete iPod Photo Cache.
4. Try syncing again.
I had the same issue and this resolved it!

IPhone wont sync all photos after updating to 4.2

Hi,
I just recently tried to update to 4.2 and before I did this I backed up my phone, like I always do. I then downloaded and installed the firmware. When it started back up, there was no music and it said I had to rebuild my photo library before opening photos app. I did and when it was finished it only showed 800 pictures out of my original 1500+. I then searched for my backup I created before but the only one there was the backup it just created.... I don't know how to get my pictures back now. please help

Are you saying you had 1500+ pictures in your camera roll? If not, then the pictures should be in the folder on the computer you sync with. All you have to do is resync the phone. If they were pictures in the camera roll, you see why it is important to import the pictures to the computer as soon as you can to ensure you have them. The backup for the iPhone is not that much of a guarantee. I wouldn't know why the phone would have backed up a second time after updating the software, but if it did, it overrights the last backup, unless it was a restore backup.

Iphoto wont sync mov files

iOS 6
iPhone 5
Hi everyone, I recently took some videos using my iPhone and then sync them with iPhoto. They show up in the events in iPhoto but wont show up on the iPhone.
Any help would be appreciated.

hi there,
verify if you have a checkmark next to "Include Videos" on the Photos section of the Overview page for your iPhone in iTunes.

Error -50 - Syncing iPhone photos with aperture

Hi,
The facts:
OS - 10.7 Lion
iTunes - 10.4
iOS - 4.3.5
So when I updated to Lion and iTunes 10.4 my photos from Aperture will no longer sync with my phone. I get the error (-50), which to my understanding is a time out error. Now when I sync with iPhoto it works, no error.
Any help with getting my iPhone to sync with Aperture would be appreciated.
Rob

Found this link that works the first time you sync, but give me the same error the next time I sync.
