Sorry, but your problem is not anywhere close to the OP's question, not in the same ballpark. The OP's question isn't a problem for starters.
I have not seen your problem reported here. I've haven't seen anyone report all photos on their computer are optimized for viewing on their iPhone as part of the iTunes sync/transfer process that are not selected to be transferred to their iPhone.
Try deselecting Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. This should remove all photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer. Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos and the folders or albums you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.
If no change after this, you may need to delete the iPod Photo Cache on your Mac followed by another sync. This will require all photos selected to be transferred to your iPhone being re-optimized for viewing on your iPhone with a new iPod Photo Cache for the photos transferred to your iPhone being re-created.

  • IMessage sync problem - too many users

    My partner and her kids currently use the same iTunes a/c. Is there any way of isolating the kids iPod Touch's from mum's iMessage app? iTunes a/c each is the easy option, but then they lose access to all songs and apps etc they have purchased...???

    Add additional email addresses for each child to your Apple ID account here: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/561/wa/directToSignIn ?wosid=1HFr6YOHXeHtC4m5410IyM&localang=en_UK
    Then on their devices, head to Settings -> Messages, scroll down and tap Add Another Email.  Once you have added the additional email, head back to the main Messages settings window and tap your own original Apple ID email.  It should open the email address in a new view with an option to remove it underneath.

  • How do you sync contacts with gmail, not other place on computer? I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from?

    I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from? I spent a LONG time on gmail going through my list of contacts. There were about 400 and I got it down to about 90. When I went to sync my new phone, ALL 400 synced.
    Thank you for any help!

    Sorry for the repeat...new here. OBVIOUSLY.

  • 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.

  • I want ro remove all of the default Firefox bookmarks. There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me. I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    I need to remove the default Firefox bookmarks.
    There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me.
    Also, I am vision impaired and reading through such a long list is very eye-fatigueing to me.
    I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
    The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    For the annoying start-up message:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Siri doesn't work still after the apple rep I spoke to said it would be back up this morning. anyone else have this problem too? and how can I fix it?

    it has been 24 hours and  Siri still doesn't want to take any commands anyone else have this problem too? and how can I fix it? she just keeps saying there is something wrong and to try again later. I didn't buy this phone to be jipped on any features.

    Mine wasnt working either but i saw in another thread that you should try Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. Ignore the warnings, all your settings have to be changed back but you dont lose any media or data, you just have to put your background back and location settings. It fixed Siri for me but dictation still doesnt work. Hopefully it works for you :-]

  • Adobe acrobat reader 9 problem saving forms and copying photos

    I used adobe acrobat reader 6 at
    work and I have a form that I save with new data. I am also able to copy text and photos using version 6.
    When I try to save edited forms and copy files from versiion 9 It wont allow me to do that.
    Is their any way that I can copy text, photos and save forms in Adobe version 9?
    When I try to save forms in version 9 it states that I am unable to save the form. When I try to copy text or photos it will not allow me to copy.

    Are you talking about Reader or Acrobat. These are two different programs and Reader definitely has restrictions. Reader used to be called Acrobat Reader before version 6, but that has been gone a long time. The change was likely because of the confusion between Acrobat and Reader. The problems you indicate are suggestive of Reader, not of Acrobat.

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

    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?

  • C7 and Nokia Ovi Suite photo sync problem

    I can sync all may data and calendar etc but photos will not sync or copy to my computer.  Updated the phone software and d/l latest version of NOS software to no avail.
    Chin Chin homie homie okacheebeesadoo

    I'm replying quite late on this thread. It's quite possible that you would have already gotten your answer by now. But even then I suppose some comments won't do any harm.
    The feature of custom labels for Contact details is really a feature directly dependent on the capability of the Nokia Phone model you are using. E.g.. My old Nokia N73 had this feature, however, my Nokia E7-00 does not.
    Although I miss this feature of custom contact labels, I believe that this feature does not conform to the global contact schemas standards. And perhaps that's why it may have been discontinued even in the supporting software like PC Suite or the Ovi Suite Applications.
    Hope this helps!

  • OSX Photos sync problem with IOS Photos

    iCloud has 1521 photos, which are correctly shown on my iPhone and iPad including all photos taken recently.
    Problem is iMac, Yosemite, showing 1558 photos - how can it have more??
    Especially as nothing has synced down to the iMac since April 4.
    PLUS it says it is uploading 3721!!!! I don't have so many and never have!
    I have made sure there are no duplicates.
    Is there any way to redo the database or whatever is causing the problem on the iMac?
    Have rebooted, unticked Photos in Settings/iCloud and rejoined.
    That made it worse - even more to upload (allegedly).

    I just had a similar problem with my iPhone 4. Are you using wi-fi syncing or USB? I found that using a USB connection helped. I connected the phone, turned off "sync music," then synced. Turn "sync music" back on and sync again.
    Hope that helps.

  • After 5.1 update photo sync problems

    After I updated my iPhone 4S, iPad1 and iPad2 to IOS 5.1 I'm having problems syncing my photos.  I also just bought a new iPad3 that came with IOS 5.1 installed and it has the same problems using iTunes to sync on my Windows 7 (64) PC.  The problems are:  not all photos sync into each album, many photos show up in the wrong album and several thumbnails don't match the photo displayed when I tap on it.  Their are two common denominators: my PC running the latest iTunes (version 10.6.0.40) and all my devices running IOS 5.1.  I've reported the iPad3 problem to Apple (case number 299629840) and the support tech and I have tried deleting the iPod photo cache, reloading the IOS software, etc. with no luck.  The purpose of this post is to see if others are having the same problems with other devices on 5.1.

    I am having a similar issue.
    - iOS 5.1 on a 4S.
    - Itunes 10.6.1
    - Iphoto 9.2.3
    With the 4S connected via wifi I select "Sync photos with" "selected albums..." I check one album only with four photos in it. Hit sync and the I watch the photos transfer in the top bar of itunes as it syncs. The orange status bar at the bottom goes up to show the photo data is on the 4S. I open the photo app on the 4S and the photos do not show up at all. No new album, no photos. The data appears to be there, but the 4S is not showing them.
    I've tried deleted the ipod photo cache a few times and restoring. No change.

  • Photo Sync problem - Cannot read or write to disk?

    Initial sync of my iPad. Photos seemed to download from iPhoto. Space indicated that entire photo library had been copied to iPad. when I go to look for the pictures on the iPad, the screen message is that no photos exist. Back on the iMac, a notice said that the: "The iPad XXX iPad cannot be synced. The disk cannot be read to or written from."
    Th sync of my music library had no such problems. What am I doing wrong....all is fine except the photos sync.
    Thanks!

    This issue is discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1207
    A common resolution is that one or more of the images being synced is corrupt / unreadable.
    Remove the cached photos so that a fresh copy can be made: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • Duplication Issues with Photo Sync via iTunes/iPhoto and Photo Stream/iCloud (Detailed Scenario Given)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'd like to share an issue I am having with photo syncing between my iDevices.
    Here is how I USED to sync my Photos between my iDevices (no issues with photo duplication)
    Note: In this scenario, I use iTunes and iPhoto on my Mac. iCloud and Photo stream have NOT been activated in this case.
    1. Take photos via iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. After a month or so, I will connect my iPhone to my Mac.
    3. Import my Photos in iPhoto and arrange  Events and Photos in monthly sections and add some of them in a separate Albums (ex. Written Notes Photos) for easy access.
    4. Once the import is done, iPhoto prompts an option to delete photos in my Camera Roll which I do as I like to start a fresh month with empty Camera Roll in my iPhone.
    5. In order to access the Photos I have imported in iPhoto in my iPhone, I go to iTunes and sync all my photos to my iPhone. This syncs my events, photos, faces, albums as they have been arranged in iPhoto in my Mac. (I cant delete them in my iPhone once they are synced. I have to delete in my iPhoto and sync again to have similar setup in my iPhone which isn't a problem).
    NOW I decided I don't want to manually go through all this process and went on to enable the Photo Stream ON in my iPhone and iPhoto with iCloud.
    THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM ENSUES.
    1. I  Take photos with my iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. This automatically syncs with my Mac due to Photo Stream which a really convenient.
    3. It syncs automatically to Photo Stream, Events, Photos, Faces section in the iPhoto and I put put some of them (notes) in a separate album.
    THE PROBLEM:
    The Photos does not show up in the Album, Events and Photos Folder in my iPhone. They are only shown in Camera Roll. So I thought to sync using iTunes so the new Photos will be arranged in their appropriate folder like it used to with my prior process of syncing. This worked, HOWEVER the photos in my iPhone started showing DUPLICATES! Apparently, one comes from Photo Stream (which, if I delete on my phone also deletes in all my iDevices) and the other duplicate is from the iTunes sync (this sets up my photos as arranged in iPhoto which is what i WANT to happen as Photo Stream does not sync them accordingly).
    SOLUTION I AM IN SEARCH FOR:
    I want to be able to take photos with my iPhone that automatically syncs in iCloud AND iPHOTO AS ARRANGED IN MY MAC (Albums, Events etc) WITHOUT PROBLEM OF PHOTO DUPLICATES.

    Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing  the iPod Photo Cache.

  • Photo sync problems

    I have tried syncing photos from my computer (Win7 OS) from the native My Pictures files and from Picasa. I have tried doing all folders and individual folders. The sync starts with it telling me that it is optimizing the photos and the volume bar shows that it is importing a large group of photos. As soon as the optimization ends and the import begins, it imports one photo, the volume bar drops out and I wind up with only one photo out of 1165. I have tried everything to get it to work but this happens every time. Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.

    I finally figured out the problem and it has nothing to do with the iPad. I went into each individual picture folder properties on my PC and unchecked the box that says "Read only" and then clicked "Apply". I then synced the pictures using the select individual folders option and every photo synced to the iPad...FINALLY!
