Photos from Aperture not syncing via iTunes?

Hi:
I use Aperture to catalog and edit all my photos, and I post some stuff to Flickr.  I decided I wanted all my Flickr content on my iPad and iPhone, so I went to the Flickr project in my library, selected all the photos in a given set, and created an Aperture album from them.  Quick side note which may or may not make a difference - not all my photos in Flickr were posted through Aperture (some came from other sources, etc.).  When I open these albums in Aperture, I see jpegs of all the photos I snagged from Flickr - so far, so good.
Now - I fire up iTunes and tell it I want to sync selected albums.  I pick all the albums of photos from Flickr.  I sync - and for a couple of the albums I get a few shots (3 from one album, 2 from another, etc.) - but I can NEVER get all the photos synced to my devices.
I've tried regenerating all the previews in Aperture, and I've also tried deleting the iPod Photo Cache file in the Aperture applib package.  No joy.
Curiously, I have absolutely no problems syncing with some old photos I have left in iPhoto.  I'm half tempted to export my Aperture albums to iPhoto then sync with that - but that's too much of a manual workaround, and this should just work from Aperture --> iTunes.
This is driving me nuts - any help/advice would be appreciated!

Same problem here...
But how did you set the 'Previews to Share with other applications' ? I still get this message that I have to set the Previews to share with other apps. This is an option in Aperture but I can't find it...

  • Possible to sync photos from Aperture to iPod via iTunes?

    When I used iPhoto, I set iTunes to sync photos from the iTunes Library with my iPod. Now that I use Aperture, there is no equivalent option to have iTunes look at the original photos in Aperture and copy them to the iPod so I can view them.
    I can copy a Vault from Aperture to the iPod, but that's like copying any other data file -- it is stored, but photos cannot be viewed.

    Well, that was an interesting idea, Colin, but it didn't work. I opened iTunes, and then dragged the Aperture repository into it. It seemed to acknowledge it (when I dragged it onto iTunes, the "dragging" icon wasn't x'ed out), but it didn't add anything to the library.
    If you try to do an "Add to Library" from iTunes, and then navigate to the Aperture repository, the repository folder is grayed out. It can't be selected. Same for a backup Vault created from Aperture.
    Thanks for the suggestion, though. It's always worth experimenting. (Assuming everything is backed up. )

  • Changing Sync photos from: Aperture to iPhoto on iTunes

    I marked my previous question as solved by mistake.
    I still have a problem in iTunes to sync my photos to my iPhone 6. It shows only available "Copy photos from: Aperture".
    I would like to switch this back iPhoto and cannot find the way.
    Thank you.

  • Problems syncing photos from iphoto to ipod via itunes

    I have been having some difficulty getting my itunes to sync iphoto contents to my ipod. This worked fine for ages, but has just stopped working. I can sync photos from a standalone folder. Following a discussion on the ipod forum (for full details see: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1872524&start=0&tstart=0 ) we have established it is something in the iphoto library that is causing the problem. A new library works fine, but switch back and itunes does not recognise it. I am hoping that someone here can help me identify what could be causing the problem.
    Any thoughts welcome.
    Duff
    ps I have also posted this in the iphoto forum, see here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1876616

    Resetting your iPod puts the iPod's software in factor default. It doesn't erase anything. Restoring the iPod erases your iPod's content and puts a fresh copy of the OS on it. Restoring is a more extreme way to solve a problem. Use restore if a reset doesn't work. If a restore doesn't work, then its not likely that a reset would help. Sorry for the late reply, I was busy with classes. Cheers mate.

  • Reminders and Notes sync via iTunes (cable, not iCloud).

    Hello, Everyone.
    Has Apple fixed the problem with Notes and Reminders yet ? When I last researched the subject both applications (1) could only be synchronized via iCloud and (2) even that wasn't working well for most users.
    Is there an update or a way to sync Notes and Reminders via iTunes without the use of the Internet (iCloud, Gmail or any other Internet-based service) ?
    Thank you in advance for your help and input.
    <Edited by Host>

    This doesn't help you, but I just recently started having the same problem, I just upgraded my 3G to 4.0 in iTunes so I don't know if that has anything to do with it but nothing on my phones calendar will sync to iCal. Events in iCal sync to the computer just fine thought. I hope someone can help me figure this out!

  • HT1386 My new iPhone 6 will not sync via iTunes..

    There is no errors... it simply will not update my new iPhone 6.

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • ITunes U content from iPad not syncing to iTunes

    I have a couple of iTunes U courses on my iPad (downloaded using my iPad) which I couldn't transfer to my iTunes library during normal sync. The iTunes ID I used for downloading is the same  iTunes ID that is authorized on my Mac mini iTunes.
    Why doesn't iTunes transfer these purchases back to the iTunes library?

    Same thing...I have iTunes U courses on my iPhone, but they are not syncing over to my iTunes library.

  • Synching photos from a select folder via iTunes on my Windows 7 PC

    I copied many individual photos from different folders into a special folder on my desktop.  I synched up, clicked on "selected albums...", clicked on this special desktop folder, and then "Apply."  Only about 20 of 170 photos made it into my iPad however.  How can I transfer all the photos to my iPad?

    This worked, thanks!  But now I have a new problem.  I carefully ordered the photos (by re-naming them, and then sorting them alphabetically by name in ascending order) so they would appear in the order that I liked, but the photos on the iPad are in a completely different order.  How do I fix that?  How does the iPad sequence photos?  Do I have to re-order the photos in the folder so they appear in the same order in the iPad?  If so, how?  Thanks

  • I got my ipad 2 yesterday.  I am trying to transfer photos as albums to ipad via itunes. I put the photos in a file with sub-files as I was told. The all tranfer but into one album. Is there a way to do what I am trying?

    I am trying to tranfer photos from pc to ipad via itunes. I put the photos in a file and sub-files in order to tranfer them as albums: an main album with albums within. All the photos tranfered but into only one album. Is there a way to do this? Is there an app that would help. Also, I tranfered two albums into iphoto. I edited a photo in one album which created a new album of edits. I have removed the photos form the album but I am not able to delete the album themselves. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
    When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
    Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

  • Cannot sync photos from Aperture using iTunes

    Yesterday I took 16 photos using a Canon 5D Mark III and uploaded them into Aperture and created a new project to hold them. The I wanted to transfer them into my iPhone so I went to iTunes, connected the iPhone via USB cable and in the left hand side bar under Photos I clicked "Sync Photos", selected "Chose photos from Aperture" and "Events from the last 3 months" and in the events list that appears below, the new project appears checked.The I clicked on Sync and left the iPhone and the MBP connected overnight and it stayed in Step 7 of 7 Importing Photos....
    Any ideas on why I have not been able to import that project from Aperture into the iPhone using iTunes?

    Make sure everything is installed and up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Updating iPod's Software
    Also, try syncing from a different folder with photos. See if that one works.
    Finally, see if this works/applies/gets you anywhere...
    iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes

  • Photos in Aperture could not sync with iTunes

    I am using aperture 2 to manage all of my photo which is a great idea so far. I put my original into my external hard drive instead of into Aperture library. I am sure that all my photos refer to the right places because I can fine it when I click the function "show in my finder".
    However, in iTune, when I try to sync my photo from aperture from the way of selected folder, the folder doesn't have any photo inside.
    Thank you very much for your answer in advance.

    iTunes uses your previews to sync images.
    In Aperture, Choose Aperture >> Preferences then Click the Previews tab and make sure Share Previews with iLife and iWork is checked. You can also control the size of the previews in the Preferences.
    If you haven't set it up to automatically generate previews in Preferences, you will have to generate them manually: select all the photos in the Album you plan to sync, and choose Images>> Update Previews.

  • My iPad Mini will not let me delete photos I have synced via iTunes. I need to delete these photos to make space on my iPad. If you know how to delete them please tell me. Much Appreciated x

    When ever I go into my Photos on my iPad and select the ones I want to delete there is no Trashcan icon so I am unable to delete the photos. Please contact me if you know how to delete photos synced via iTunes x

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • Aperture not syncing with iPhone, iLife, iTunes, etc

    The problem: Aperture isn't syncing.  I thought this was an iPhone problem, but apparently, it's a system wide thing.  Let me explain:
    I'm running Aperture 3.2, but I've had this problem for a while now - probably since upgrading to Lion.
    In Aperture, I have a smart album that contains any photo I've rated five stars.  Currently, there are 180 photos in it.  In iTunes, I've selected to sync certain things from Aperture to my iPhone.  If I click on that 5 Star smart album, it only shows that there are 21 photos.  Huh?  So, as a test, I opened iPhoto (which I never use).  In the File menu, I clicked "Show Aperture Library" and I selected my 5 Star smart album.  Sure enough, iPhoto only sees 21 photos in there.  But if I click over to Aperture, I see that smart album contains 180 images.
    What's going on here?
    I should also note that a search of the forums here at Apple support show lots of people have been having similar problems, but most only notice they're missing photos when they sync their iPhone.  Clearly, the problem is deeper than that.  Aperture sees 180 photos in my 5 Star smart album.  iTunes, iPhoto and my iPhone are only able to sync 21 of them?
    And how weird is this?  In Aperture, I have a smart album of shots that were taken with my iPhone and rated 3 stars or higher.  There are 115 shots in that smart album.  iTunes and iPhoto only see 38.
    Somewhere, for whatever reason, Aperture is telling the rest of the system that it has far fewer images than it does.  How do I figure out where the problem is and how do I fix it?

    Thanks to Jalpuna
    Your workaround worked for me to until I started to use Aperture to adjust photos in several projects in Aperture. After that, Photos were missing again on my iOS devices etc., and I couldn't imagine the process on making new previews for all my 25.000 photos once again. My old MBP is just too slow.
    I had to see if I could find a workaround to work with only the adjusted photos which looked as the ones missing after syncing to the iOS devices (or at least just the project in which the adjusted photos are).
    This example works for me for the time being:
    Usually a project (let's call it "XYZ") with newly imported photos have the same number of photos in Aperture and in the event with the same name XYZ on an iOS device.
    If not all photos sync between Aperture and iOS (usually after adjusting photos in Aperture), I use this process, which I found out to use after adjusting several photos:
    When I adjust a photo I let Aperture automatically make the adjustments in a new version and let the versions stay in a stack.
    I make sure to change the rating for all the other photos in the stack to x (9) (i.e. except the version I want on my iOS devices - yes only one and the same versions goes to all the iOS devices, I sync via iTunes).
    After rating be sure to use the pick function on the version you want on your device (the version rated higher than x (9) - which means that the wanted version "goes to the top of the stack".
    Now view "unrated or better" (which means your x (9) rated photos won't show)
    The process from here seems to work also if by any other reason photos won't show up on the iOS device.
    Choose a project, all the photos in a project or just the photos missing in iOS, and delete the previews
    Then generate thumbnails - this could take some time and for sure it takes time. At least if you need to do it with thousands of photos.
    Close Aperture when all the new thumbnails and previews are generated.
    Open iTunes and sync your iOS device. I think it works best (fastest) with the cable, but I think it should work via WiFi-sync too.
    It is **** of a workaround, but it is the only way I can get all the right photos on my iOS devices after adjusting photos in Aperture.
    The next coming up must be how to manage to sync back to Aperture the photos adjusted in iPhoto on the iOs devices:-)
    Note: Any adjustments made to a version seems not to be deleted when deleting previews, but is kept and put back on a new generated preview.

    I'd try updating to version 11.1.5.5:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you're already at version 11.1.5.5 (or the update didn't help with the recognition trouble), try the procedure in Cerbu's post:
    Re: sync problem
    ... or try section 5 from the following document:
    TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    ... but if you still have the same recognition troubles, try a complete uninstall/reinstall of both iTunes and all related software components, as per the instructions from the following troubleshooting document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
