Photo capacity problems

I've recently bought a classic 120 gb and am having problems copying a large collection of photos to it.
The photos total 19gb so with 64gb of free space on the ipod I thought I wouldn't have a problem.
The copying failed due to insufficient space. itunes reported 32gb of photos plus 30gb of "other" files which turned out to be in a folder marked "thumbs".
So 19 gb of files needed over 63 gb of space. Is there a work-round for this, say a way to prevent that thumbs folder being populated?

Problem fixed.
Apparently when I installed leopard, and did a clean install when I subsequently installed the ilife software from my original tiger disks, this caused some issues regarding core components being scrambled in Leopard.
Apple suggested a reinstallation of leopard, (retaining existing data and user accounts etc).
Once this was done, everyting worked perfectly.
Im very impressed with the ability to install the operating system in various ways, either retaining account information, upgrade, or clean install.
Something Microsoft could learn a leason with.

  • Photo sync problem with Windows Vista?

    I did some searching and was wondering if there is a solution to the photo sync problem with Windows Vista. I have gone the route of changing some of my photos to bitmap files but this is was way too much work just to view on ipod. I like to email Apple but could not find a link to do so. As far as I know I have all updates but still the iPod does not sync photos. Is there an update to this that I am missing or am I stuck changing all my photos to .bmp files?
    Thanks,
    Dean.

    I checked out the article and not much help, thanks anyway.
    Would it make a difference if I purchased Adobe Photo Album or would I still be stuck with changing and saving files to .bmp extensions? I have Adobe Photoshop album starter but still have to change file extensions.
    If someone has a solution to this problem I would really be greatfull. I did contact Dell as this is a brand new computer and that was a wash. They did give me a number for Apple but of course I bought the iPod off of ebay and has no warranty on it so unless I pay a fee I'm not calling. It just blows my mind that Microsoft and Apple can't or won't come up with a fix. But I guess when Microsoft wants you to buy the Zune or Apple wants you to buy the overpriced Macintosh why would they waste time on having there products compatible with each other.
    Thanks.

  • ICloud photo stream problem

    Hi all - I really need your help. 
    My iPhoto '11 was working just fine until I upgraded it to 9.4.3.  I also just installed the recent system upgrade.  Now I am having multiple problems. It seems to stem from Photo Stream.  Activity Monitor shows that Photo Stream is using up gobs of CPU which is strange since it is supposed to not be working...
    In iPhoto, under the preferences, it shows that Photo Stream is not enabled.  If I check the box to turn it on, it just unchecks itself just as quickly.  But in the system preferences, it shows that Photo Stream is set up just fine.  Photo Stream is certainly not working.  And it seem to be totally screwing up iPhoto.  I have tried multiple iPhoto fix options (option alt fixes, restoring a backup library, uninstalling then reinstalling iPhoto) with no improvement.
    I'm not sure if the problem is coming from iPhoto or iCloud Photo Stream problems.  I am running OSX 10.8.4 on a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7.
    Can anyone tell me what to do?  Thank you so much!

    Well Old Toad, I am stumped.
    I double checked and logged out of iCloud in both user accounts and made sure that PS was not enabled on either library.  Then I restarted the computer.  I went back to my main user account (second account set up = non administrator account) and to my main iPhoto library, logged into iCloud, tried turing on PS = did not work.
    If I do the exact same thing as above for a restore of a backup of my library = does not work.
    If I do the exact same thing above but log in with my first account (not my main one but it is the admin account on the computer) and access the test library I created = PS works just fine with no problem.
    It seems the problem with PS is limited to my primanry account (non-admin).  Do you think the admin privaledges difference between the two accounts could be the problem...?
    As always, I am thankful for your time and advice.

  • Element v.11 & 9 Photo mail problem with MS Outlook

    Looking for a fix:  Elements v.11 has a photo mail problem with Microsoft Outlook mail, even when Outlook is designated the defaul e-mail program in Windows internet.
    Is there a fix??  Thanks.

    I just posted the same problem and so I'll join this thread, hoping to see an answer to your question.  By the way, this PSE11 feature worked fine for me with Outlook 2007, but stopped working when I upgraded to Outlook 365.

  • IPad photo syncinc problem from Aperture

    Hi,
    I have a weird photo sync problem (Itunes 10.0.1, Aperture 3.0.3). Sometimes when I add a project to Aperture and an album under that project, I can't sync that to my ipad as Itunes doesn't see any pictures in the album.
    My Aperture library is huge so I'm not syncinc all of it, just selected photos. When I open iTunes, plug iPad in and go to iPad photos page, the project and the album appear in the list but if I check either one of those, the number on the right showing the number of photos in the album/project, is zero and nothing gets synced.
    Sometimes I've been able to fix this by restarting aperture and itunes. I've tried reprocessing previews (previews are 2560x2560) but it doesn't seem to help anymore.
    I've sort of localised the problem to Aperture. When I quit aperture, an information window "updating information for sharing previews" and a progress bar apperars. If this takes only a couple of seconds, then iTunes doesn't seem to detect any changes I've made. Sometimes it takes from 30 seconds to a minute and usually after that everything works.
    I tried to google this and others seem to have had similar problems but I didn't find a solution. Is there one?

  • I can't import my photos from my digital camera (Sony) this problem is recent. I have imported photos without  problem a problem before.

    I can't import my photos from my digital camera (Sony) to my iPad, this problem is recent. I have imported photos without  problem a problem before. Is this problem due to the IOS 6 update? How can I fix it?

    I have the same problem and apple needs to fix this - but in the mean time you can manually select the vertical photos then "import - import selected" and you can get your verticals. We need a better fix. THIS IS A BUG!

  • Photoshop/Elements to Revel Photo Migration Problem!

    What happened to my Photoshop/element photos? They were supposedly migrated, but I don't see them! I have no albums in my Revel account.I had a paid subscriiption and it was cancelled back in or around February, and told that the photos would be moved over to REVEL...Can anyone help me to get them back?

    First, thanks Pattie for following up with me. I am going to check my backed up hard drives to see if my photoshop materials are on them. It will take me a few days, as I have only small amounts of time to research it at this time. maybe a break will come in a day or two for a determination.

    Michael-
    Is it possible you logged into Photoshop.com with a different email, or is it possible that you did not set up your Elements to sync with Photosho.com? These are the two main reasons users can not find their files.
    The Photoshop.com account created in 2009 with the email you use to log in to this forum has no files in it, and therefore, nothing migrated to the Revel account with the same login. You do have a Revel account with the same login, but it is also empty since nothing migrated.

  • How do I fix over capacity problem caused by Itunes 10 on 80GB classic?

    I had just recently automatically updated my Ipod classic 80GB to Itunes 10.4.1.10, not by choice I might add, but automatically. Anyway, I then tried to sync my ipod to make sure everything was good, shouldn't have been a problem, if anything add a few items onto my ipod. Prior to this sync, I had a little over 40GB worth of music on my ipod, don't think I had many videos, but didn't really have any to put on just yet. Under summary screen, other wouldn't be but a few MBs and I would have just a couple GBs under 40 free. Now it shows other, which I had assumed to be contacts, photos and the like at over 40GBs and 14GBs of that puts it over capacity. That "other" data is a ghost, I'm certain that I don't have that much data on there, nor do I have it in my itunes library waiting to be put on there. This only occurred because of the updated software, and Apple doesn't seem to want to support me in fixing what they appear to have broken. If anyone has a fix for this, or has any idea as to a promised patch for their software bug, please help me out or give me a heads up. Thx in advance.

    If you had Firefox save your Yahoo password, first try deleting that here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Security > "Saved Passwords"
    The "signed out" message seems to be related to how Yahoo authenticates you. Some users have reported that disabling automatic proxy detection solves the problem, and it also resolves an issue of getting logged out every few minutes, if you have ever experienced that.
    To make the change:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "Network" mini-tab, click the "Settings" button, then choose "No Proxy" and OK your way back out.
    If your work connection requires you to use a proxy server, try the "Use system settings" option instead.
    Does that help?

  • Photo sync problems os 5

    Just upgraded to os 5 on my 3rd gen iPod Touch.
    Photo albums appear in list (on Ipod), but have no photos to view.   Complete lib is very incomplete.   Line graph on iTunes show correct capacity used, but LOTS of pictures are not transfering to iPod.
    I restored once and had same problem.   I am attempting to re-sync right now.
    Any thoughts?

    I believe I found a fix for this problem.  I have a 3rd gen 64GB iPod Touch and this worked for me.
    Download the latest version of iPhoto.  (I think it's 9.2.)
    Launch iPhoto.  (It will ask to upgrade your iPhoto Library.
    Allow it to upgrade your iPhoto Library.
    Exit iPhoto.
    Launch iTunes.
    Do a "traditional" sync with your cable or docking station.
    Your photos should now sync.  (At least, it worked for me.)
    Green Lantern
    p.s.  I also turned off all photo streaming on my iPod Touch and in iCloud in Sytem Preferences on my MacPro.

  • Ipad 3th gen photo sync problem take too much space / wrong color

    I am so happy after i got my 3th gen ipad i start sync 7k+ photo off my computer here problem i got and play phone tag with techsupport until now i still have this problems i wonder if anyone counter those and got tip to solve it.

    i resize photo to so small it come out same problem
    2. photo color show not correct.
    most of my photo sync to my ipad show in green or purple color.
    I find out that any photo not in sRGB and do not have iccc color problem will have this problem i can be fix by convert it to sRGB and add iccc profile but it should not be this way ..
    the problem just with photo app that come with ipad, i test with adobe photo express it does the same problem color go all jack up.
    as now big big problem is can't seem to get photo sync correctly without 1 problem or other .. with 32Gb hdd i can't even get all photo that show 15gb in pc
    system

    ipad 3th gen 32gb with at&t 4glte

    I'm running iOS 5.1 on my iPhone4 and my new iPad3. But I never saw this color effect on my iPhone3G or iPod2G as well. I did sync some slideshows as well, but that is done on a Mac, not a Windows PC.
    What are the settings on your camera when you shoot the photos? Is the sRGB profile embedded by the camera? Any RAW formated pictures involved?
