Need help syncing photos to ipad through iTunes

I have tried to troubleshoot an issue I seem to have with syncing photos to my ipad through iTunes. I have done it many times before successfully. Now all the usual tabs seem to be missing and there is no reference to photos anywhere I can see on iTunes. This article seems to be about my issue iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support However, I don't seem to have the buttons/tabs they refer to. I am running iTunes 12 which seems to be the latest version. Is this article still relevant?

Hello rayver,
There is a slight difference between how you sync in iTunes 11 vs iTunes 12. Take a look at the article below to look for your iPad in iTunes and then select the Photos tab to then sync your photos over.

Syncing photos to iPad from iTunes

I got my iMac in November 2009. My iMac OS is the latest series 9. My iPad2 was purchased in July 2011. I figured out first sync of photos from an iPhoto album in December 2011. That took a while. It should have been easier. Last night I decided to add some photos to the iPhoto album and sync to add some more photos to my iPad. But iTunes does not seem to recognize the additions to the album. In fact, iTunes has not picked up any events or new photos after 1/12/12. And there were plenty of new photos uploaded from the camera to iPhoto on the iMac. iPhoto says I have some 4250 pics. iTunes only recognizes 4050. I tried deleting the iPod Photo Cache to no avail. I also noticed that when I show the iPhoto Library package contents there is a folder called "Originals". Its last mod date was 1/12/12 (coincidence?) but there are uploaded folders by date within Originals that are dated after 1/12/12. It just shouldn't be this hard to sync photos...it just shouldn't. iPhoto, iTunes and OS are all updated. The only change I can think of is starting to use a new Lumix ZS8 camera.

First launch iPhoto with the Option+Command keys held down and rebuild your library with just the option to "Examine and repair iPhoto Library file permissions" checked.
If that doesn't solve the problem create a new album with the same photos, delete the old album and try to sync the new album with iTunes. See if that will jumpstart the syncing process.

Sync Photos from iPad to iTunes

Hello.
I use my iPad for travel and I have the Camera Connection Kit. I download the pictures directly from my camera to the iPad.
I sync my iPad with iTunes but I dont see the pictures going from the iPad to the PC.
There is any way to automate the movement of the pictures from the iPad to the PC so I don't lost the pictures if any thing happen to my iPad?
Thank you.

It's a shame Apple seem to mislead customers who buy the camera connect kit. The product page states:
When you sync iPad to your PC or Mac, the photos and videos on your iPad are added to your computer's photo library.
This appears not to be true. It seems that you have to manually import your photots to your PC and then delete individually ones you do not want to remain on your iPad.

How Do I Sync Photos With iPad Using iTunes?

Since updating to OS X 10.10.3, iTunes 12.1.2.27, and Photos, I cannot sync any photos to any devices. Previously, I would connect a device, choose photo albums in iTunes, and sync. Now, I connect a device and no matter what I choose in the photos tab on iTunes, the number of pictures is 0. Also, it shows iPhoto as the source. How do I correct this so I can get my pictures on my devices again?
Note: I am not going to store my photos in iCloud.
Thank you in advance.
Ted

Pics taken with ipad are not part of the sync process at all.
You import them as you would from any digital camera.

Need help syncing new ipod touch to Itunes.

I recently bought a brand new Ipod touch 5th gen. I have the latest update for itunes, I want to start syncing music to my Ipod. My computer will not bring any info for this ipod touch into itunes. I had a 4th gen and I know that I seen on the right hand corner, under the search store, there should be a little icon with your Ipod below. No where is my Ipod been found. Every time I plug the USB cord into the computer, I don't see anything come on the screen. All I see is the battery charging on my Ipod. I'm getting frustrated with this Ipod not allowing me to get any music. What am I doing wrong? I also don't see any summary pane for me to reset to factory settings and start all over. how can someone help me on this? I tried turning on and off both the Ipod and computer, nothing, still the same and no Ipod is to be found on itunes. PLEASE HELP!!

Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
If necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Need help syncing photos.

Ok first off let me say I have a new iPod Nano 2GB.
Ok this isn't ordinary so please don't post the link to that photo help thing. This is different.
Ok so this is what shows up when I try syncing my photos: "The iPod cannot be updated because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library."
Even though it says that I have 8MB left. And the folder I want to add isn't even one MB. What's wrong? Please help!

If you have a 2GB ipod and you're getting a message that you have 8GB os space left, your iPod may be seen as a hard drive. To resolve that issue you can change the drive letter of the iPod. The following link will show you how to do this.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
=========
Also, how much music do you have in your iTunes library? If you are trying to put a photo on while having the iPod set to automatically update your music also, you may not have enough room for both the photo and the music. If this is the case, highlight your iPod under devices and change the settings under options to manually manage music and videos. Make sure you click on apply after making the change.

Need help syncing my iphone 5 with itunes

thing please help and sorry for my bad spelling here is a pic of the problem
below

@Kev48us
I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. I can understand your concern as a iTunes and iPhone user.
I do notice that you stated that you restored your computer a few months ago. The files from iTunes are typically stored on your computer in a specific place. If the computer was restored it may have erased these files. Were you able to review your computer to see if these files still exist. For a Windows 7 user these iTunes files can be found under:
• \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
Keep me posted. I would like to know if any of the information is currently on your computer. If not you will be able to erase and sync.

Need help viewing photos on iPad , why is there a small timer in the bottom right corner

why is there a small timer at the bottom right hand corner of photos that locks up and the photo won't get clear?

Yes when trying to view photos, on some the timer goes all the way around and you get the clear picture, but on others the timer stalls and you never get the picture to come in clear. I have about 2500 pictures on the pad, don't know if that's too many for it?

Where is the photos button in the new version of iTunes? Need to sync photos from teh computer but photos buton doesn't exit or is hidden.

Where is the photo button in the new version of iTunes? I need to sync photos from the computer?

On iTunes 11 you can re-enable the sidebar via View > Show Sidebar. 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 you 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

I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using Windows 7

I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

Your computer is probably set up to access your Yahoo mail using POP3. POP3 does not synchronize with the server. For full synchronization, you will need to use IMAP instead. See the Yahoo mail help pages for instructions on how to configure your mail client.
