Photo Folders - Cannot Reorder

I used to be able to reorder my photo folders in iTunes. I recently attempted to reorder some folders in iTunes 9 with no luck. Does anyone know if this feature has been removed? Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.

That's quite the feature downgrade from previous iTunes editions!
Not everyone uses iPhoto to archive their photo albums,
it was nice and easy to put the albums into an individual order with iTunes in the past ...
Apple, please consider adding this feature back with the next iTunes update ...

Error message: 'Cannot reorder photos'.

Normally I do not have a problem reordering photos in LR4.
However with my last import from a folder in Pictures on my Imac's hard drive I am being shown the following error message,
'Cannot reorder photos. The currently selected scource does not support custom order.'
My Imac works on OS X version 10. 6.8, with a 500GB hard drive of which 186GB is free.
Please advise

I believe that you can re-order photos in collections (but not smart collections), or if you have a single folder selected.
If you have multiple folders selected, or a smart collection selected, or a keyword selected, or "All Photographs" selected (and probably a couple of other items selected), you cannot re-order photos.

Cannot sync all my photo folders into the iPhone 4

To be honest I am not certain this qualifies as either an IPhone issue or an iTunes issue, so I thought I'd start here...
This is my problem: I am trying to sync some photo folders into my iphone 4 (running on iOS 7.1.1) using iTunes for Windows (11.2.0.115), a collection of wallpapers I made for my iphone. I made a total of 1390 files which currently take only a little over 144 MB. Before the sync I checked on the iphone 'USAGE' to see the space available in it, and it reported I had 1.29 GB of space available (Confirmed by iTunes when I connected to my computer to start the sync).
When the sync procedure got to the point of importing the photos, it reported it was only importing 895 photos out of the 1390, leaving 495 photos out of the import.
All of the photos are JPEG files, and I verified none of them are corrupted. Also, I am not getting any error message indicating that the sync was stopped, or any message indicating that I had run out of space.
When the sync was finished, iTunes reported my iPhone still had 1.12 GB space available.
Can somebody please explain to me WHY is the sync procedure not importing all the photos I wish to import into the iPhone?
Any info any of you could send my way would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Your a bit stuck if you didn't back up your old computer.
But your apps can be re-downloaded later using your itunes account; you won't have to pay again.
You can download all your photos via wifi using an app like "wifi photo transfer".
There is no way anyone here can help you extract the music off your iPhone; iPhones were built to hold music to listen to, not to be able to get back off.
On the plus side again you can redownload all purchased music via itunes for free.
My advice would be to back up your computer this time.
And also to use icloud to back up your new iPhone.
If you have your old iPhone when you set up the new one it shouldn't take more then half a day to re-download everything and be close to the same.
Good luck.

How do i put 'photo library' and photo folders onto my pc?

A while ago I had over 6000 photos in camera, mostly screen shots. So i imported them and sorted them out into photos taken by the camera and screen shots, put them into different folders then put them onto my phone. So i have Camera Roll & Photo Stream, Photo Library (all my foldered photos combined) Folder 1 and Folder 2. Folder 1,2 and photo library cannot be deleted.
I want to delete some pictures and videos from the folders but i can't. My computer got wiped and all those photos are gone. How do i put those pictures back onto my computer? Importing only works for camera roll and when i go into tab photos and press sync, i think it deletes them because the GB decreases dramatically. How do i put them onto my computer and delete the ones i want?

Apple does. heh software is called Time Machine. But you have to turn it on. To give reasonable protection, you need a separate disk to store the Time Machine data, otherwise, a disk failure takes out the back up data as well.
Personally, I am a bit paranoid about back up and use a three tier strategy. I use a Mac Pro with four internal drives. One is dedicated to be a Time Machine target. That backs up changed files automatically, but it is still in the same machine. I also have a Drobo FS for network storage. I back up user data to that weekly. And then I use USB drives for monthly off-site storage.

Help! Photo Downloader Cannot Find Card Reader

Photo Downloader cannot find the card reader, just indicating <none detected> within the Source Selection. Refreshing the list does not help. OSX mounts the volume and other applications have no issue finding the volume.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Details:
MBP 17 (early 2011)
OSX 10.6.8
PSE9
Lexar Pro ExpressCard CF Reader
Thanks a bunch!

Mac OSX can R/W to FAT32 and NTFS volumes, no problem.
Image Capture does not detect the memory card in ExpressCard reader. I think this is because Image Capture supports only USB and Firewire ports and not ExpressCard.
I can manually copy the images from the ExpressCard reader using File>Get Photos>From Files and Folders with no issues but with this multi-step method it is quite a nuisance when Photo Downloader should do this in one step.
From what I understand about using Photo Downloader is it will automatically create new subfolders in the destination folder with the new subfolder names based on the shoot date of the image, it will automatically copy the image files from the memory card to these new subfolders and it will automatically import the images into PSE Organizer. This seems to be hugh advantage for using Photo Downloader.
BTW, Canon ImageBrowser MemoryCard Reader Utility has no issues with the ExpressCard reader. I just want the ability to use Photo Downloader without having the extra step of using the Canon application.
I can connect the camera via the USB port and Photo Downloader detects the camera images without issue. But it is a pain to have the DSLR plugged into the laptop in addition to the slow transfer speed.
I think the issue is with Photo Downloader not supporting the Mac ExpressCard slot. I hope I'm wrong about this.
And I wonder why Photo Downloader does not have a manual browse method in addition the the automatic method to select the source location?
Thanks for the suggestions.

Photos folders synchronization

Hello all,
I have an iPhone 4, and a Windows 7 PC plus iTunes. Usually, I make a lot of photos. Both for work and for fun.
About 2 months ago, in order to create some folders for the photos, I copied all the photos from the iPhone to my computer, using Windows Explorer. On the computer I placed the photos in folders, I deleted the photos from the iPhone, and syncronized the phone with the computer, via iTunes. This way, the photos folders were also created on the iPhone. Everything is fine up to this point.
Since I do not need duplicates of my photos, I deleted them, and the folders, from the computer, knowing that they are in the iPhone. Today, after 2 months, and 190 new photos, I want to keep the old folders in my iPhone and to create new folders with the new photos. Suprise - using Windows Explorer, I cannot see the photos which are in folders in the iPhone. More than that, the iTunes only gives me the option to synchronize the computer with the iPhone, but only by creating in the iPhone what is in the computer, and not viceversa. Since I deleted the old photos and folders from the computer, I fear that, by syncronizing, they will also be deleted from the iPhone.
I am thinking to send myself the photos from the folders, by e-mail, but it will take me some 30-40 mails to do that, so I was looking for a simpler way.
Do you have some suggestions? In those folders, I have some videos as well.

"Since I deleted the old photos and folders from the computer, I fear that, by syncronizing, they will also be deleted from the iPhone."
Correct, they will be deleted from your phone. The photo sync is one way: Computer to phone. You'll need third-party software to extract these photos from your phone, as Apple makes no provision to do so. Bear in mind, these photos were reduced in resolution for display on your phone, there is no way to recover their full resolution.

Syncing Photo Folders; iTunes adds 2,000 photos also?

Hello all,
I click Sync Photos on iPad and iPhone sync. I select (create) a folder and add sub folders in it, with photos in the sub folders. I select that main folder as the folder to sync photos with for iPad and iPhone.
I sync my devices, and where I should have 200 or 300 photos, I have 2,338 photos.....
Now, I navigated around these Discussions and it seems that others have this problem. It seems to be a bug. No one seems to have a work around. With iPad, the extra photos are poured into the Photos/Photos section. Oddly, I cannot even find these photos on my iMac HD, so I have no idea where they came from. Tons and tons of photos that are not in the synced folders I ticked.
Apple, please fix this bug... 2,338 photos is ALOT....
lh

Goodness, I feel bad... I found a folder that had been accidentally dropped into a sub folder in my iPad photo folders.
I learned that all photos in the main 'photo folder structure' will be included in the main 'Photos' section in your iPhone and iPad and iPod Touch. So if you have photos you do not want on your devices, (like 2000 photos), just not 'unchecking the folders' will keep them off of your device. You 'must' take the photos folders 'out' of the folder structure you have synced to. That will keep them out and keep some room on your device.
2,338, lol... Thats alot of photos.
My apologies for thinking it was a bug. Truly, I think that 'unticked folder's (folders selected only) is a bug, but I had found out what was going on with my system. If you select a main folder to sync with, and you have sub folders, and you tick 'sync selected folders only', then the 'excess and unchecked' folders SHOULD NOT go into the device... right?

Deleting photo folders

I'm an absolute beginner to iDVD 5 and cannot find a means of deleting photo folders from the Customize>Media sector of iDVD 5 - the <delete> key is inoperative on highlighted folders. There is an option under <Preferences>, <Movies> to <Remove> movies - and only movies - but not under <Slideshow>. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Jeff:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you trying to delete the slideshow from iDVD or the iPhoto Album folder that you see in the Media section of iDVD when you select photos, like the Easter folder here? If that's it then you can't. That's an album that's you created in iPhoto for the purpose of assembling a select group of photos for use by iPhoto or iDVD or iMovie.

New photo folders.......

For some reason i have two new photo folders on my iphone4s. One is titled MY PICTURES and the other PHOTO LIBRARY. I cant delete eithere the folders or the images inside them. i have browsed the communities for items in this matter. can some one help me delete this stuff. i just dont have a need for the images or the folder and im a tech idiot. thank you

Photo Library is always on everyones iphone and cannot be deleted. It is where ALL photos synced to the iphone are stored. My Photos is likely a folder from your computer that you selected to sync.
If you want to remove it then open itunes, connect iphone, deselect the folder and sync.

Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profil

Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)
OK. This is a new outlook setup on a laptop. The mail account is on a MS Exchange Server 2010. The user can log on to their laptop no problem with their AD login and password. To setup the outlook profile we have checked the name OK. When we click finish
and try to start outlook we get the above error message. It is driving me pots as I have tried also of things. I have tried to connect without catching the files. The error message then says that the Exchange Server is down, yet we checked the name OK and
I can log on to the MS Exchange server and see the setup.
What else is it that I need to look at as I have tried everything. I will add that they one service I see not running is the Exchange RPC service. If I try to start it, it fails saying Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services
or programs.
What can I do?

The major cause of this problem is a corrupted Navigation Pane settings file – profilename.xml, where “profilename” is the name of your Outlook profile. A good sign that the
file is corrupted is when the size of the file is shown 0 KB. No one knows the precise reason why this takes place, but all versions of Outlook from 2003 to 2013 may get affected.
Other causes may be when you run Outlook in the compatibility mode, or if you are using a profile generated in an older Outlook version, or if the Outlook data file (.pst or .ost)
was removed or damaged as the result of faulty uninstallation or reinstallation of MS Outlook.
Follow the steps given below to resolve this problem
1. Recover Navigation Pane configuration file
2. Repair your Outlook PST file using Inbox Repair tool
3. Create a new Outlook profil and import data from the old PST file
4. Turn off Compatibility Mode
5. Start Outlook in Safe Mode

Syncing iCloud with contacts and calendar in MS Outlook 2007, will get message that "the set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened."

I install the iCloud Control Panel and information is uploaded from my Outlook Contact folder to iCloud. ICloud folders are created and syncing process between my iPhone, iCloud, and Outlook works for a while (day or 2). Then, when I open Outlook after a day of 2, I get the above message that "The set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened." The only resolve that I have found is to uninstall the iCloud Control Panel, the reboot my Windows computer, then reinstall the iCloud Control Panel and resync contacts and calendar to icloud. This is getting to be very cumbersome to use this feature. What is the cause of the problem that it keeps on disconnecting to iCloud?

I have also fixed it by uninstalling and then reinstalling iCloud, but as you have experienced, the problem recurs without reason. Apple would/could not help as they say that the problem is with Microsoft's Outlook and that I should talk to them. Microsoft's techies won't help without me paying some £200 as I have a Professional - a student's - version of Office 2007. This is scandalous. It is obvious, from the many who have reported the same problem n this forum, that Microsoft should look into this urgently and create a fix

Photo Folders in IOS 7.1

I have an iPad (2nd gen.) running IOS7.1 (latest update). I want to have separate photo folders in IOS7. I was able to do this on my iPod (3rd gen.) running IOS 5.1. I want to do the same thing on the iPad. I tried to drag and drop the folders onto the iPad but this won't work. I'm using a Win 7 laptop as my computer.

The folders need to be in a single containing folder and sync the container to achieve what yoyu are asking.
