Organizing photos using iTunes

When I add a new folder of pics or files to sync they do not properly sync in the order of the file name. Many times they are just out of order. I have tried
countless ways to fix this and yet can't figure a solution. When I need my pics to go in order from # to # it will rearrange them in the order of the date they were taken or added to the gallery, even if you delete the album and start over, the **** thing still wants to do it it's own way? Can anyone help w/out having to reshoot these files just so they are in order? Make's no sense.

How to sync Photo using iTunes

Hi All,
I would like to know is there any way/method to enable the "Selected folders" option in iTunes under Photos section?
I was trying to sync come wallpaper that into my phone, but after syncing, i will get another folder call "Photo Library".
Q: How can i remove "Photo Library" on the iPhone? and How to selected photos using iTunes and upon syncing i don't want to see"Photo Library" folder in my iPhone?
Please share the knowlege whoever facing similiar issue.
Thanks.

Following are instructions: iTunes: Syncing photos
Note that in order to see the Photos tab you first must connect the phone and select it.
If you still don't see it, it is possible that it is off the edge of your screen to the right and you many need to use a scroll bar at the bottom.

How do I automatically sync iPhone camera photos using iTunes?

Hey, gang! I'm confused about the "Sync Photos from iPhoto" option in iTunes. I clearly do not want to transfer *all* photos (years of accumulated digicam pictures), yet when I choose "Selected albums", iTunes gives me the following warning:
"This iPhone contains photos synced with another photo library or folder. Photos and albums on “Name of iPhone” will be replaced with photos and albums from this computer. Photos taken with “Name of iPhone” will not be affected.
Well, this is bizarre--what other library or folder could my phone have been synched with? Plus, no matter what I was using, I certainly don't want to lose those photos on the iPhone!
Of course, what I really want to know is:
"How do I use iTunes to automatically transfer the photos I've taken with the iPhone to my MacBook Pro?"
P.S. I know how to transfer photos using iPhoto, but that's laborious and I really want to transfer/back up my photos as part of my iTunes ritual.

Plus, it clearly indicates that there are photos on my iPhone that could well be deleted as a result of synching!
The only photos on your iPhone that could be deleted when syncing with iTunes are photos that were transferred from your computer to your iPhone, which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. These photos should remain on your computer so will not be lost.
Do I really have to go through 800+ photos in my Camera Roll and laboriously determine if they have matches in my iPhoto library?
Photos in the Camera Roll are not included or touched during the iTunes sync process.
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are stored in the Photo Library.
The other odd thing is that there is a third album on my iPhone. It contains the very same photos as in Photo Library, but is called something else and the photos are in a different order. I am unable to delete it the way one can with a regular photo album that one has added. What's up with that?
When transferring a photo album or folder or multiple abums/folders from your computer, all photos transferred from your computer are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library. The photos in the album or albums below that were transferred from your computer include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view the photos in an album only be selecting the album, or all photos in all albums transferred from your computer by selecting Photo Library. The same occurs when transferring only one album or folder or multiple albums or folders from your computer.
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process can't be deleted direct from your iPhone. Photos transferred from your computer are deleted from the iPhone the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, which is not handled by iTunes. When there are photos/videos in the Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to a computer.

Iphone and appletv sync photos using itunes from a Network Drive; times out

I have a brand new Imac and a synology network drive. The network drive contains all my photos.
When I sync my various idevices (appletv, iphone, ipad) using itunes and specify a folder on the network drive. after a few hours or next day, when I plug a device to sync with itunes, i get a msg saying the folder can't be found.
It appears that the network connection times out.

Please advise how to resolve error message - cannot be synced because it cannot be read from or written to.

Hello Janet,
I would recommend this article named 'Disk cannot be read from or written to' when syncing iPod or 'Firmware update failure' error when updating or restoring iPod found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1207
Outdated operating system software
Make sure you have the latest updates for your operating system, which may include improvements for device connections. For example, many USB and FireWire improvements have been included in Windows Service Packs.Check for Mac OS X downloads. Check for Windows updates.
Computer needs updates
Make sure you have the latest updates available for your specific computer model (or components for home-built PCs). These are usually available for download on the support website for the maker of the PC (or component). Many USB updates are listed as "Intel chipset" or just "chipset" updates on PC manufacturer's support and download websites.
Software interference
Some software can interfere with iTunes, making it unable to write files to your iPod. Think about what software you have installed, and try disabling any add-ons that might be interfering with iTunes. Check your suspected software's documentation or contact the software maker if you need assistance with disabling the application. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software frequently causes this issue. See these steps for identifying and troubleshooting third-party security software.
Damaged files
If one of your music files or photos is damaged, iTunes may display one of these errors when transferring that file to the iPod. If you identify a file that is causing the error, try deleting that file and reimporting it from a backup file or from the original source. You may be able to repair files by repairing the disk (see the solutions in the next section).
Unregistered .dll files (Windows)
Malware or other software may cause an issue with the digital signing of Windows XP drivers. First try restoringthe iPod using the latest version of iTunes.. If you are unable to restore it or the symptom reappears, follow the steps in this document.
Damaged disk structure
These errors can also appear if the format of your computer's hard drive or your iPod disk is damaged.
To repair your computer's hard disk—Mac OS X users, read this article for instructions. Windows users, search the Help system in Windows for chkdsk to get more information on checking and repairing the disk structure.
To repair an iPod disk—Restore the iPod or iPod shuffle using the latest version of iTunes.
Warning: Be sure to back up your data before restoring an iPod. The restore process cannot be undone. All of your songs and files will be deleted.
Corrupt iPod photo Cache
If you're getting the error when transferring photos to an iPod photo, try deleting the iPod photo Cache and then starting the photo sync again.
Lost connection
Make sure that the connections from your computer to the iPod are snug and do not wiggle or come loose during transfers. For example, if you use the wrong size dock for your iPod, it can put strain on the connectors and cause a bad connection. See these articles for more information:
Learn about iPod Universal Dock
iPod Dock: Specifications
Conflict with third-party hardware
Third-party USB or FireWire devices may also interfere with iTunes' ability to communicate with your iPod. Remove all USB and FireWire devices except the keyboard and mouse before reconnecting your iPod to the computer.
Bad hardware
Hardware failure or non-compliant hardware can cause these errors. This could be an issue with iPod hardware or with the cable or dock you're using, but more often it's an issue with the USB or FireWire card or interface in your computer. Some USB and FireWire interfaces just don't work very well. If you isolate the issue to the USB or FireWire interface in your computer, you may want to try a different port, get the computer serviced, or replace the card or interface with a better one.
If you isolate the issue to an Apple-supplied cable or dock, or the iPod itself, you can get it serviced here.
Take care,
Sterling

Sync Camera roll photos using iTunes?

So I did my first sync after the initial set up. In iTunes, I chose to only sync photos from a couple of folders. Once the sync was complete, I was surprised that the photos from my camera roll was not copied to my mac. I went to the photo tab and wanted to choose to sync the camera roll photos, but there is no option for doing that.
The only work around I did, was to launch iphoto and import the photos from my iphone 3G. How do I set it up in itunes so that the photos from the camera roll will be sync'd automatically each time??

When the iPhone includes photos that were captured by the iPhone, it is also detected and treated as a digital camera when connected, so such photos are not included with the iTunes sync process.
If you use iPhoto for storing photos, you can use iPhoto for the import. If not, you can also use the Image Capture application located in your Applications folder to import these photos to the designated location on your hard drive.
How do I set it up in itunes so that the photos from the camera roll will be sync'd automatically each time??
You can't, but you can have iPhoto launch automatically when your iPhone is connected which will occur only when your iPhone includes photos that were captured by your iPhone. The import process by iPhoto or Image Capture is not automatic, but you can have either one launch automatically.

Managing photos using iTunes

From what I can tell I can only choose which photo's to put in my iPod by having a central 'root' folder that contains further folders with photos in them.
I may then select to have only some of those folders sync'd or have all folders sync'd.
Is that correct?
Is there a better way of doing it?
Also it is a pain to have this extra root folder specificaly for the sync process as I have to copy folders/photo's from other places into the root folder in order for iTunes to find them.
Is there a way round this?
Just wondering if I have missed the point or if that is just how it works!
Thanks

Anyone?

Why photos already uploaded to Ipad are erased when I sync other photos using Itunes ?

Why previous photos uploaded to Ipad (retina) are erased when I sync it through Itunes to upload additional photos ?

To keep the photos previously loaded when you previously synced you have to continue to select them when syncing additional photos. If you don't they will be deleted.

How do I remove photos using iTunes?

I've read several threads saying that the method for removing photos that were taken with a camera (not an iPhone) is through iTunes.
I tried two different methods and neither worked.
The first method was to go to the Photos page and unclick the Sync Photos From and then hit the Sync button at the bottom right. The photos were not deleted.
The second method was to click the Sync Photos From box, select iPhoto and then make sure none of the Album or Event boxes are checked. Then I hit Sync again. This also did not work.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
Thanks,
Cliff

I also have this problem with my 4S.
I have 2GB of photos on my iphone that I need to remove to free up space but have been trying for weeks with no success.
Have tried the various methods with iTunes of unticking the various folders, or deselecting the whole lot, but no photos have been deleted. I don't get any message asking me if I want to remove them.
I tried synching the other way just with a couple of photos and found it will happily sync photos from my pc to my iphone but will not remove them when unselected in iTunes.
Does anyone know what is causing the issue?

Purchase the software.

You have already found a way.
Someone put some work into developing a program so if the photos are important, purchase the software.

Hi I'm not very computer literate so pls be gentle! I bought an iPad air two days ago and synch my photos using iTunes just fine.
Today for some reason I noticed all these white thumbnails on my laptop in the photos section. Stupidly I deleted all 600 of them and all my photis on the iPad immediately vanished. Later I restored the photos from the recycling bin to my photos
However now I try to re synch them there is no option to synch from ' my pictures' just each little folder ( whereas before I had a drop down box and could select which folders I wanted) however when I synch iphone it does offer the option
Anyway even if I synch each folder it will kep replacing the last one so I can only ever have one folder of photos on the iPad if u see?
How can I transfer my photos please?
And how can I get the option back of the drop down box and tick as many folders as I want?
Many thanks
