Photos from Mac still appearing on iPhone, even though "sync photos from iPhoto" is unticked in iTunes?

A colleague has all his Mac photos showing up on his iPhone, even though the "Sync with iPhoto" tickbox is unticked when he syncs it with iTunes. He has PhotoStream turned off. What else is possible to clear the photos off his iPhone please?

Have him try putting the checkmark back in front of "Sync Photos From" on the Photos page of iTunes and change the selection of photos to be synced so that only one or two new photos is selected (and none of the existing ones) and then sync. If that removes the existing ones, then remove the checkmark and sync again.
Sync instructions in the following link if needed: iTunes: Syncing photos

  • ITunes says i have 15.4GB of photos on my iPhone even though my Photo Library is empty

    Exactly what the title says. iTunes says i have 15.4GB of photos on my iPhone even though my Photo Library only has a couple of photos in it that obviously don't take up that much space. I tried unselecting "Sync Photos from..." in iTunes and syncing my iPhone that way, but nothing happened. The two photos remained in the Photo Library, and iTunes continues to say i have 15.4GB of photos. What gives?

    You cannot.
    There a re not duplicates on your iphone.  Just as a song is in your music library and that exact same song can be accessed from a playlist, all photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same pics ( not duplicates) can be viewed from the folders/albums.
    This is how Apple handles photos.

  • HT201274 I am unable to transfer my songs from my ipad to my iPhone even though they are both registered to the same apple Id

    How are you trying to accomplish this? You can't transfer media directly from one iDevice to another. You should be transferring your purchased items to your iTunes library on the computer you sync them with, then syncing them from there.
    You should be able to re-download media from the iTunes store using the same Apple ID used to purchase it to begin with.

  • Just received replacement iPhone and trying to set up.  Can't get photostream photos to show up on new iPhone even though all 1800 pics show up on Mac iPhoto and iPad photostream.  What can I do to view my photos on my phone?

    How can I get my photostream from Mac and iPad to show up on my new iPhone 4 replacement.  Broke my iPhone and received a new one but can't get it set up to see my photostream.  Can anyone help?

    If her data was not backed up or synced to something, it's gone. Sorry.

  • Photos on Ipad not shown in Iphone even though ICloud is configured with same settings

    Hello,
    I have some problem getting my pictures synced with iCloud betwene my iPhone4 and iPad2 even though iCloud user account is added in booth devices and latest Device sw are installed.
    How should you do to get this automaticly synch to work.
    User cenario:
    I take a photo with my Iohno but it will not be shown in my iPad photo stream.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Regards
    Daniel Nelson

    Be sure photo stream is turned on on both devices.  On the device with the camera, you must be connected via wifi and the photo app must be shut down, not sleeping.

  • Music videos don't appear on iPhone even when Sync Music Videos is checked

    Simple enough problem. They appear on my iPod Touch but not on my new iPhone. Ideas?

    Now I am in a perpetual restore loop. It finishes a restore and then asks me if I want to restore (again) or set it up as a new iPhone. I have no iTunes content on the phone. Going backwards here.

  • HT1711 I backed up my iphone5 in the morning and later again on the same day, in the afternoon. I then restored an older backup from the morning. Now all my music files refuse to play even though they still appear on iphone. How can I resolve this?

    Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
    Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
    Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
    NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
    LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

  • Hi, messages still appear in iPhone search even after they are deleted from iPhone.

    Hi, messages still appear in iPhone search even after they are deleted from iPhone.

    Yes and as long as you are signed into iCloud - you can even use that phone to iMessage
    The messages stay on there until you wipe / erase / restore your old phone

  • Just activated iphone 4S and can't get new voicemail greeting to take.  Old greeting still plays from old phone and that phone still receives voicemail nofications even though it is no longer active.  What is going on?

    Just activated iphone 4S and can't get new voicemail greeting to override the old greeting.  Greeting from previous phone still plays even though a new greeting has been saved to the iphone.  Also, the previous phone still receives voicemail nofications even though it is no longer active.  What is going on?

        We want to make sure that voicemail transition is super smooth SonyBony! Please be aware you must power off the previous device in order for the complete switchover to take place. We recommend leaving the previous device off now that you have activated your new device. Here is a link for additional assistance with voicemail on the iPhone 4s. http://vz.to/1kcyBlo

  • I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).

    I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).
    On the Iphone and Apple TV I can connect to Netflix . . . it recognizes me and my account settings . . . and I can veiw all my recent programs and show titles, descriptions, etc..  But when I select one to watch I get a message saying:
    "ERROR A PROBLEM OCCURED WHILE PLAYING THIS ITEM. TRY AGAIN LATER, OR SELECT A DIFFERENT ITEM. GO TO WWW.NETFLIX.COM/SUPPORT FOR MORE INFORMATION. (139)
    Netflix support say there is nothing wrong on their end . . . that it is an Apple issue.  They see the request for the show, the devices are registered . . . but it shows 0 bandwidth to the device.
    My Apple TV did this when I first hooked it up a couple of weeks ago.  Then after a few days started working with Netflix, for no apparent change . . . now doesn't again for the past couple of days (I think that it auto restarted the other night after a virus scan).
    Very frustrating, and driving me nuts!  Has anyone else had and been able to resolve this problem?

    Troubleshooting
    Apple TV2 update one day and netflix is browsing but not launching the actual content (error 139)
    Ipad2 (another ios device) forces me to update netflix if I want to use it and I get the same error 139 on it.
    **** now I have two not ways not working where prior to some update it was fine.
    Nintendo Wii is still working ( mind you running an ancient version of netflix )  Dusted the Wii off and gave it to the kids use.  Now they are happy again...
    PC is also still working ( using some other flash client ) but that's just of interest, we're not going to be watching tv with that.
    My wife's iphone 4s is still working.  Odd.. still ios but for somereason I am not forced to update the version. So basically she could mirror stream up to the apple tv with it.  Nice feature of Ios5.  Later found out it is using 1.4 version of netflix.  The most useful thing out of that is that all 3 of the devices are Ios and it was actually the iphone with the 1.4 version of netflix that still worked!
    I heard from a friend who was on a different ISP he was still working so I took my appletv2 and ipad2 over to my brothers house who is on that same ISP as my friend and both started working.  So the ISP is involved too!
    Brought the appletv2 and ipad2 back to my house hoping it would maybe still work.  No dice   Broken again.
    Searched the appstore for a decent packet analyzer and there isn't really anything.  I was able to sniff the traffic with my PC and also on my juniper ssg5 confirmed that.  Turns out port 80 traffic is actually failing and authorization is not happening.  The other clients do not do this...
    Asked a buddy from work who used to work at the ISP if he could make a call to some one who might actually know what is going on.  He came back pretty quick and said yea they are trying really hard to get the beta patch in from Bluecoat asap. 
    So knowing that it was actually Netflix that changed when it hit 2.0 and in my case the ISP made the adjustment it's pretty safe to say this issue is going to be ongoing unless netflix changes again the way they authorize for licenses.
    So that's the summary of what went right down the troubleshooting path but I'll tell what what didn't
    2 calls to Netflix (useless... waste of time... they are too quick to blame anyone but themselves)
    1 call to apple support (support call was going to cost more than it cost for me to change ISPs)
    2 calls to ISP (through the normal means - regular support number)
    So why is this intermittantly working sometimes?  If you are lucky enough to authorize to an IP address that is not cached they voila you are going to get an authorization / a license to watch the show.  Some people report after defribulating their appletv (reseting, rebooting, dns changes, you name it) they get it working.  Over the past month we all seem to have got it working for some period of time only to lose it a day to two later.
    It's now been several days since the beta patch to the bluecoat and 4 of us who have been communicating on the issue appear to be online all at the same time for those several days and that is a good sign that we might be out of the woods on the issue.
    Hope this turns into something helpful for someone else out there.

  • The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end.

    The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I've tried it multiple times and continue to get the same message: "NOT FOUND The requested item could not be found". I also tried through the Market application on the phone but ended-up with the same result.
    I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end. If this is the case then no one can download the app. I considered that perhaps because it's still in Beta that it was removed due to some other type of software issue. I would really like to use Firefox on my new Droid (2.0); when with this be available?

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • Just because I have an imac pre 2007 why can I not order photo albums???!!  I spent hours building a photo album for my parents only to find out that because my mac is earlier than 2007, even though I have 10.6.8, I can no longer order?! What is that

    I spent hours building a photo album for my parents only to find out that because my mac is earlier than 2007, even though I have 10.6.8, I can no longer order?! What is with that? This makes no sense. I can go online to various "photo shop" place and regardless of the OS and computer I am working from I can order a photo album so why can I no longer do this through iPhoto on my MAC?
    How do I order my album now? If somebody could please explain as I am going home in 1 month and really wanted to surprise my aging parents with this book.

  • HT3529 I have lost all data on my iphone and the back-up is too old. How can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4? I have all the chats on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    Hi,
    I have lost all data on my iphone by mistake. I needed to restore the phone and I didnt realize my back-up was 1yr old, and now the phone is restored and I've got a year old contact list and iMessage chat history. Luckily my iMessage on the Mac is still valid and has all the chat history. My question is how can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4 from my Mac? I have all the chat history on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

    why can't i pick up any wifi networks? wifi capabilities still work on iphones, even without a SIM card-yes or no?

    No one here can know why for certain, and yes.
    If no change after resetting network settings on your iPhone and after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem with the wireless card or something else.
