Photos app only downloads pictures in "moments" view

I have "upgraded" to the Photos app on all my devices (ipad, macbook air and iphone).  After a few issues (pictures were not uploading from the macbook air) it all seems to work except on the ipad.  There I only see gray rectangles where I should see pictures unless I open them in "moments" view.  (ie in "collections" or "years") nothing downloads to the device. On the iphone, which uses the same settings (ie "optimise ipad storage"); all was downloaded.  I have 11 GB free on the ipad.
any idea how to get all the reduced size images to download to the ipad?
thanks.

I was able to get my Journals working again by syncing all photos included in those Journals back from my Mac to the iPad. However, this has resulted in my iPad being loaded with extraneous photos (not included in the iPhoto Journal) wasting space on my iPad. I've posted a separate thread looking for a soution to that issue.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.

  • When I enter my photos app(only on my iPad Air), it says my iCloud storage can't update because it's full. In the settings it says I have 1,5 GB storage left. How do I solve this problem?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Could you please clarify what it is that is full, your iPad or your iCloud storage.

  • Is there an app to download so you can view videos requiring quick time?

    Is there an app to download so you can view video requiring quick time? I'm a new apple user and have read that adobe flash is not an option. Hoping there is something out there to download

    Anything that plays in QuickTime can be "shared" to iTunes and synced to videos.

  • Does Photos app limit download of photos with CCK to 16Gb on all iPads?

    Hello y'all,
    New member here. Long time MacBookPro user and now about to get an iPad2 3G for traveling. I'm a photographer, shooting RAW, and in the next year and a half I'll make a few trips (on a shoestring) without carrying the Macbook, only taking the iPad with me. At a certain point I'll spend two or three months in areas where internet acces lacks completely or is bad (so no cloud storage). Of course I am considering the Hyperdrive, and / or a lot of extra SD cards for back-up storage.
    At this moment I'm trying to decide between a 32 and a 64Gb iPad, and for this I have a question I couldn't get answered yet. So I hope you really knowleageble folks here can help me out!
    When reading on the net, I found a couple of remarks stating that the Photos app limits the storage of picture download through the CCK to 16Gb on any iPad including the 64Gb one. Now, if that is true, it won't make sense for me to get the 64Gb and the 32Gb will have to do. But if it's not true, and I can store more than 16Gb of RAWs using the CCK, then it makes a lot of sense for me to get the 64Gb.
    FYI: I'll use the iPad for e-mail, surfing and photo storage. No videos, little music, very few apps, no serious PP, etc.
    And yes, I'm aware all the pics uploaded through the CCK will come in one single folder, so it will be very impractical to upload a lot and then cull. But I do have the discipline to cull very heavily and on a daily basis, which leads me to believe one big folder for a LOT of pics could be workable for me still.
    So, my question to you all here is: does anybody know if the Photos app puts a limit of 16Gb to the storage of RAWs uploaded with the CCK, even in a 64Gb iPad?
    Or will the iPad just not be able to deal with a folder containing say 40Gb of RAWs? A matter of RAM maybe?
    THANKS a lot for answering!
    Best regards,
    Jeanette

    The 16 gig limitation was reported last year when the iPad 1 was first introduced. I have not seen a report of this being resolved yet and followup requests on this forum were not confirming a fix.
    You may be able to work around the limitation to a degree by using a 3rd party app like SortShots or some other app to manage your photo syncing and reserving the CCK-available 16 gig for uploading raw photo files from your camera. I have NOT tested this workaround so it's only a theory until proven.
    For folders, I thought the CCK divided the uploads by date, but I haven't used the CCK for 6 months, so I may be wrong. Others will correct me if I am mistaken on this. (or anything else)
    As far as 32 or 64gig, since this is an option, you may want to go big since memory can not be added later.
    One more note, I think the cck's USB adaptor will allow you to use a flash drive for photo file storage that can be read by the iPad if the flash drive is configured with a DCIM folder. Not sure what the limitations are using this option. (feedback from others?) I don't think the iPad can write to the DCIM folder, but read-only.
    Hope this helps some....

  • IPhone 5 "places" map in photos app only showing very first photo taken.

    I got my iPhone 5 three days ago and have taken 20 something or so photos on the camera.  Location services is enabled for the camera and photos, yet the only photo showing up on the "places" map of the photo app is the very first photo I took, right after buying the phone.  I have no clue why none of the other photos are showing up in the places map & would appreciate any help making them all show up on the map. 

    mcytron [and Dhalberg]...
    Thank you, for posting this problem and the resolution.
    I have just returned from a two month 14,500km Kimberly's and Red Centre trip, and found to my absolute disappointment that all of my iPhone 5 photos had a horrid blueish tinge.
    a) by chance, I found when fiddling with iPhoto Edit that on the photos with this tinge, that the Revert to Original button was highlighted.
    Click on that button, and the photo colour profile was magically restored.
    b) OK, but how do I proceed now; select every photo, and select Edit, Revert to Original for every one?  I have 600 plus photos to fix.
    I began looking for a method of doing a Batch Change, which I have used in the past to adjust the time [and date] of photos imported from my wife Olympus SZ-14, and bingo, found the Photos, Revert to Original button in the top menu bar drop down.
    It worked a treat. I was able to select all the effected photos [in fact did a Ctlr a on the entire collection], and all 600 plus were restore in a few minutes, withthe click of one button.
    Phew...

  • T3i will only take picture when using view finder

    Hi I'm new to the forum & relatively new to DSLR cameras. I have the t3i and love it but recently I tried to take some pictures using the view screen. It attempts to take a picture, but never actually does. If I am using the view finder it takes pictures just fine.
    I asked a photographer friend to look at to see if I had accidently switched some setting. But he couldn't find anything off and suggested try a forum. So here I am

    if he formatted my phone and installed a new software, does that mean I can not track him any more?
    That is correct; if the iPhone is erased, you cannot track it thereafter.
    Can the serial No. help in this regards?
    No. An iPhone cannot be tracked solely by its serial number. The serial number will only be of help to the police in identifying you as the owner of the iPhone should they be fortunate enough to recover it.

  • Why is my app only downloading half-way

    I bought an app on the mac app store and it only downloads half-way before it says "error check your internet connection and retry" my internet connection is fine i believe i have bought several apps before that have downloaded fine. Can someone please help? Has anyone else had this problem?

    Is it a large download? Ask your ISP, perhaps they throttle doownloads.

  • Smart Albums don't display in Photos App, only when edit Contacts Photo

    I created a Smart Photo Album on my Macbook Pro and synced it to my iPhone4. When I open the Photos App, the smart album isn't listed but when I edit a Contact's photo by clicking on the Choose Photo button, the Smart Album is listed along with all the other albums.
    But when I just go to the Photos App on it's own, the Smart Album is still not there.
    Anyone have a similar problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That sounds like an iPhoto or iPhone issue and not an iWeb one. Post your question in the Installing and using iPhoto '09 or iPhone forum.

  • New photo app not downloading from iCloud

    For some reason mid way through the month my photos in my photo stream stopped syncing to my Mac Book Pro since i installed the new photo app.  Anyone else have this problem?  Thanks!

    Lots of issues about this one!  I have uploaded 227 a whole week.  Partly due to local broadband speeds and I suspect  pressure on servers in USA.  It sees the whole world is uploading at once - perhaps because Apple launched photos!
    The advice I got from Apple was just to wait a couple of weeks for things to settle down.
    Keep turning off the upload each day if it affects broadband speeds.
    To address your specific question I thought mine had also stuck as nothing appeared to happen for days - then a few were uploaded.

  • In using Yahoo email, pictures sent to me cannot be viewed using the slide show feature. I can only download pictures to view them.

    The program indicates that images are loading, but they don't. The screen where slides should appear is black.
    I had a similar problem with Facebook, and resolved it within my tools box.
    However, I can't solve the Yahoo problem.

    Oh no... NOT THE 99-PAGER!!! Anything but THAT!!!

  • IOS 8 - Photos app bug - "stuttering" effect on Year view

    Hi Folks,
    On the iPhone6 Plus 128GB with iOS8.1.3 (with 15000 photos inside several years go), I notice that when using the Photos native app in the “Year view” (yearly mosaic view), if I scroll up or down slightly fast, the scrolling that you get has a little “stuttering” or “jerking” effect, so the UI is not perfectly smooth in this view inside Photos native app.
    Have you noticed it in your own iPhone's with iOS8.1.3. and also having a huge size photo callery as I have (>10000 photos spread in several years)? (I think that is it very important, because if you have not a huge photo gallery, probably you will not see the “stuttering” or “jerking” effect that I am describing).
    I think this is a bug which impacts iOS User eXperience, which needs to be fixed.
    Thanks by your feedback!

    Hi Guys!
    Any experience to share with us, please?
    Thanks!
