Newb question for uploading photos to Ipod 5g

I have about 10 gb of photos that i have transferred to my ipod. I used iTunes to do this. The problem that I'm having is that whenever I want to add new photos, perhaps even just 5-10, it looks like it has to recopy all 10 gb to the iPod. Do I have to go through this process each and every time I want to add just couple of photos? Each sync takes about 20 minutes...there's gotta be an easier way.

In my experience, only newly added photos are copied to the iPod. There's an "iPod Photo Cache" folder stored in My Documents/Pictures (or similar on a Mac) that keeps a copy of photos on the iPod so that iTunes don't have to re-sample and re-copy pics each time you sync. If you delete that folder, then it'll re-sample and re-copy each pic again.

  • Resizing question for importing photos to ipod

    hi
    i was wondering if the ipod resizes images when i import them.
    i used to resize them manually (in photoshop) for 720x480 before i imported onto the ipod through itunes.
    now i have several hundred i want to load and they are 2272 x 1704 pixels and several megs apiece. so instead of batch resizing them in photoshop, i was wondering if itunes/ipod will resize and optimize the file size or does itunes/ipod resize the image for "display only" and keep the original file size the same. i would like to have the images optimized for disk space so i can put more photos and music on it
    thanks

    iTunes does optimise photos before they are transferred to the iPod (you can see a message in the window at the top of iTunes as it does it). It does not change the dimensions of the photos to fit the iPod screen, but it does reduce the resolution and file size. It also creates a very small version that you can see when there are multiple images on the iPod screen
    If you select the option to include the originals in iTunes it will then store the original file, a version optimised for the iPod screen and the tiny little thumbnails as well.

  • Why does it take so long for uploaded photos to appear in the photos folder?

    It takes too long for uploaded photos to appear in the photos folders.  I do not like the "new" photos.  I much prefer iPhoto.  Can I make iPhoto my default or am I stuck with this stupid Photos???  Editing is lousy, too.

      Can I make iPhoto my default or am I stuck with this stupid Photos?
    You can continue using iPhoto depending on what version your have?  Currently the only version that runs with 10.10.3 is iPhoto 9.6.1.  What version do you have?  Also do you have a backup copy of your iPhoto library made just prior to upgrading to 10.10.3?

  • Help with uploading photos to iPod from multiple computers

    I uploaded photos from my computer at home quite easily. Then I plugged my iPod into my computer at work, went to the Photos tab in iTunes, and asked it to sync photos from My Photos on my computer. It proceeded to delete all the photos I had uploaded from home. How can I prevent it from deleting photos previously on the iPod?
    Thanks.

    You can't load photos from multiple computers. There's no manual mode for photos, just different ways to sync. Syncing on a different computer will erase what's there. You can read a bit more here: iTunes and iPod: Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about Photo Sync

  • What is resolution for uploading photos to Walgreens?

    Hi:
        I just bought my first Mac computer and am trying to do the proper upload to Walgreens.  I successfully installed the automated uploader.  My question is from a PC, when I upload photos I have the option of choosing to upload in both a medium and high resolution mode.  With my iMac, when I do an upload, the Walgreens' software does not give my a choice of high or medium resolution.
        Do any of you know what the default upload to Walgreens is or how I choose the option?
    Thanks very much!

    Hi!
    Walgreens will take whatever uploads you send and will resize accordingly. I use walgreens a lot and I don't bother to resize my pics.
    However, if you do have super-high-res JPG's and you want to save upload time, you should account for 300dpi and export your photos accordingly.
    For example, if you only want 4x6's you want to export your selected photos to a folder, and choose a limit of 1800 pixels (6 x 300 = 1800) or if you want 8 x 10 you can go for (10 x 300 = 3000 pixels)
    Resizing locally will save you upload time since DSL/Cable upload much slower than they download. And don't worry, 300dpi here isn't the same as on inkjets. The pictures are still way clearer and more robust (conventional photo paper) than, say, "1200 dpi" types of printers.

  • Newb Question for burning DVD/CDs

    I have an external DVD writer on my iMac.
    I got the thing last month and an completely new to Apple (sorta)
    Now how do I make a data CD and DVD?
    On Winblows XP all I need to do is select the files, right click and click on SEND FILES TO CD for making data CDs.
    However for DVD I need 3rd party software.
    Will iDVD do the trick?
    Thanks for the looking at this simple newb question.

    Now how do I make a data CD and
    DVD?Drag the files to the icon of the
    blank CD/DVD that appears in the
    Finder.However for DVD I need 3rd party
    software.You might want to try Patc
    hBurn.Will iDVD do the
    trick?No, iDVD is only for making video
    DVDs and it requires a G4 processor.
    Thanks for the tip Duane.
    I was just reading abotu burning CD on another site. It mentions about what you said, drag the files to the CD.
    However I am reading in my profiler that burning is NOT supported by OS X on this CD/DVD writer.
    Will Patchburn or any other software overcome this?
    Thanks

  • Uploaded photos but ipod now won't communicate with any computer

    Well I’m stumped and so are the pros that have given back my ipod and said good luck getting the data extracted. So maybe someone out in cyber space can figure this one out.
    Have recently come back from a month trip in Africa and have been using my ipod (30gig Video) to upload my photos to the ipod as storage. I successfully imported 24 rolls totalling up 14gig of RAW(CR2), Jpgs and mpgs from my Canon 20D and Canon Ixus 50. I imported them using the apple camera connector and still to this day can upload with no difficulty. The problem is, when I came back home my computer won’t recognise the ipod I’ve tried 5 other macs and they too don’t initialize with the ipod. The ipod will sit there with ‘do not disconnect’ yet no communication is happening.
    The repair agents that I took it to have said that it has basically lost its identity and doesn’t know whether it’s a mac or PC ipod. Strange considering it was working working with my mac the day I left and wasn’t connected to anything apart from my two cameras while away.
    I’m really keen to know if this has happened to anyone else and how on earth I can get the very important data off before it is replaced by apple under warranty. The repair agents said after doing a scan disk that they could retrieve a few jpgs at a large cost which I said no to as I want the RAW files more.
    I would love to hear from anyone out there that could provide any answers to my questions.
    Specs:
    30gig Video
    Canon 20D (Raw Only)
    Canon Ixus 50 (jpgs & mpgs)
    Apple camera connector

    Mac G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Not to rain on your parade, but the rice thing generally takes around a week to dry an iPod out. To be sure I would turn it off do not attempt to charge. Seal the iPod in a bag of rice, for a week, (yes 7 days), remember to change the rice every day or so, then turn it on and see if all works. And like Ralph Landry 1 stated you may have already damaged it, but hopes this helps, good luck.

  • Can't upload photos from ipod touch to computer

  • Drag and drop photo files into photo lab website for uploading photos, worked in old version but not in new version.

    drag and drop ability not available in new version. I am trying to upload a large number of photo file to an online photo site for processing and the drag and drop does not work it did on the old version.

    Nothing to be fixed. Just a little learning for you.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Photoshop elements mac, newbie questions for webshop

    Hello all,
    My name is Jelle and i have photoshop elements for mac, which i mostly use to create banners, headers and backgrounds for my website www.dagelijkseluxe.nl.
    Though this is my question, i think there are a lot of people like me, bumping in the same problems. Maybe it's an idea to have a webshop webinar someday (or i missed it) for some basic functions mostly used for websites. Like easy banner creation, background adjustments for sites and products, best product presentation, etc.
    Even though i mostly use the guided editing, i sometimes venture off and try to use the full editor. Now, this must be too easy for most of you powerusers, but the background of the webshop is still a bit to dark to my liking. However i feel i have reached all i can do with the different sliders presented in the guided tour.
    Is there an easy way to "mistify" the background or any photo for that matter?
    I also save the files as PNG as per recommendation from the sitebuilder. what's the difference with interlaced and non interlaced saving.
    Thank you in advance for your time!
    Kind regards,
    Jelle Dingemans

    You could use:
    Filter >> Blur >> Gaussian Blur
    That should mystify or blur your image.
    Interlaced is a better method for displaying mainly large images on monitors - but you get a slightly larger file. Small images tend to load very quickly so non-interlaced will keep the file size down.

  • Where is a right place for uploaded photos: in/out of a container?

    I have an impression that the type of directory shalln't be context related since a web application can be deployed in the form of .war file without expansion at least from the Tomcat 4.
    A problem of this setting is that a web server (on the top of the container) appends the scheme ("http:") and the server name in the front of the phyical path to yield a invalid path.
    So what is the right way to have a photo upload directory?
    Thanks for your input.
    v.

    Hi,
    I think there are three ways for a File Upload Functionality.
    1. Uploading the files to the Web Server's Path (which obviously has the problem that you have quoted)
    2. Uploading the files to temporary directory and then writing them to the database in teh form of Binary content. This has the overhead of the file being stored in the DB.
    3. Uploading the files to a predefined directory. It could be any directory in the Application Server where you want to store it. it could be something like D:\Uploads. Now you need to write a Servlet which picks up the File from the Directory and then displays it with the respective Content Type.
    I think the third Method is more flexible but it has its disadvantage. The predeined directory should be loacted in the same machine where the Application Server is located.
    Hope this gives an idea how to do it.
    If you still have doubts, let me know.

  • No sound for uploaded movie into ipod

    Can anyone help me out with this problem? I've changed the format to .mpeg4. There is motion but no sound. It's the same with the mtv I've uploaded.

    faithty,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You'll need to provide more information for us to figure out how to solve this problem.
    When you play the movie in iTunes rather than on your iPod, do you hear sound? If not, the problem probably is with the video files rather than with your iPod.
    How did you change the format?
    Can you download one of the iPod-formated movie trailers from here and see whether the audio is OK?
