Photos not synched correctly on iOS

Hi and thanks for reading.
Sometimes it happens that some photos are not synched on my iOS devices through iPhoto and iTunes.
For example, I have the option to sync my last 3 months events. Everything is synched but there is one event of which I have 20 photos, all shown on iTunes iPhone synch options, but after synch I have that event with only 10 photos on the iPhone.
This is not the first time it happens.
Any help?

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 the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.
Regards

  • ICal (4.0.4 (1395.7)) on Mountain Lion 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro 13" not synching correctly to iPhone 3GS

    iCal has stopped synching calendars correctly with my iPhone 3GS. I am syncing via iTunes, not via the cloud; I have the latest patches for Mountain Lion; I cannot upgrade the machine's OS, because I need Rosetta. The iPhone is running the latest version of iOS Apple has pushed, but this began a couple of patches ago - I was holding off on the latest because of Reasons, and upgraded hoping the upgrade would fix it. It didn't. I also have the latest version of iTunes for Mountain Lion.
    Symptoms:
    No appointments made on the phone, in any calendar, make it into iCal. (I have five calendars that used to sync; all stopped at once.)
    Old appointments made in iCal before this started happening still sync correctly from iCal to the phone.
    New appointments made in iCal sometimes make it onto the phone, and sometimes do not. I haven't been able to detect a pattern.
    When new appointments made iCal do make it onto the phone, they are correct, except that there is always a second ghost appointment also created, only on the phone, called "New Entry." It will have the same time and date information as the actual appointment, and be listed as the correct calendar, but will contain none of the associated appointment data.
    I have tried:
    Upgrading phone to latest iOS version
    Desyncing all calendars from phone, then resynching them.
    Telling iTunes to overwrite all calendar data on sync. (I know this actually happened, because appointments I'd made on the phone which had not synched disappeared after overwrite was initiated.)
    Resetting phone to factory and reapplying everything from scratch. (This was the most recent action, two weeks ago, was a huge pain.)
    None of these resulted in any change in observed behaviour.
    What is new in the last few days is that until now, all iCal appointments had been making it to the phone, so as long as I made the appointments in iCal first, I could at least know of them while in the field. Alas, that is no longer the case.
    Any ideas?

    Sorry, it says "New Event," not "New Entry." My bad.

  • One song does not synch correctly

    I purchased a song from iTunes on my Mac. I added it to two different playlists and synched those playlists to my iPhone 4. When I play the song on my iPhone, it does not start at the beginning of the song (the first 10 or 15 seconds seem to be missing). The song plays correctly on my Mac.
    I tried deleting the song from my playlists, syncing, copying the song again to the playlists, and re-synching. The song still does not play correctly on my phone.
    Does anyone have ideas for how to resolve this?

    Hello Michael,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with the song purchased from the iTunes Store.  I recommend following the following article, specfically the section titled "Authorize using the correct account name," for the issue you described

  • Playlists and Photos not synching after iOs 7 upgrade

    I upgraded to iOS 7 on my 4S successfully and also updated to the latest itunes version. However, I cannot synch my iphoto events nor playlists correctly. the songs show up but not the playlists. Certain photo events did not show at all. iPhoe tries to keep sunching after being disconnected. Reboot did not solve the problem. Should I do a "hard reset" or are there other options? Anybody experiencing the same?
    Thanks.

    I have a similar problem.
    In the past the only way to fix issues with music, song indexing  or playlists has been to take it off the sync in iTunes, let the phone delete it all, then re-add it and wait several hours for the sync to complete. Annoying, but it usually works.
    In my case it's an overnight job (30+GB of music converted to 192AAC on the fly).

  • Photos on ipod nano not synching correctly

    I just received an ipod nano 8g for christmas..i finally learned how to put the music on but am having trouble with the photos..i have a windows vista and have created a folder for the photos i want for my ipod..then i synch them just like they tell me to do..there are 28 photos in the folder and im only getting 8 to go onto the ipod and those are all messed up..hard to explain..lines of all different colors through the photos..i get a message that says not all photos can be synched to my ipod..but i dont understand why...what am i doing wrong...ive tried several times and different folders on my computer and same problem..not all the photos go on and the ones that do have lines all through them...im getting pretty frustrated and any help would be greatly appreciated...im new to all this technology stuff..thanx again

    I think most of us are having problems with this which is annoying. If you check out the other e-mail threads you may possibly solve something for your own ipod that might work. I suspect it is looking likely though that it's not Vista compatible due to the amount of problems being experienced..very disappointing. Good luck

  • Photos not synced correctly to iphone... Unorganized and out of order

    After syncing my Iphone 4s with my macbook pro, all of my "Event" photos are out of order. If I open a specific event there will be photos that do not belong there and have no relation to that event... Same with the "faces" feature... I will specifically look for all pictures with "Mary's" face and majority of the pictures are other people with "Mary" not even in those pictures...
    I have looked at my macbook and all of the photos seem to be correct on that and in the right locations... Not sure how to fix this problem or what to do :-/
    This is a feature that I use constantly and would appreciate if someone could help guide me to correcting it....

    Hi Tasha48323,
    If you are having issues with unusual or incorrect data after a recent sync with iTunes, you may want to turn off the sync options for Photos, click Apply (this should clear that data off the iPhone), then turn Photo syncing back on and Apply again (which should resync all the data back). You may find the Resolution section of the following article helpful (the article primarily concerns a slightly different issue, but the steps are the same):

  • Photos not appearing correctly on 2nd mac

    I maintain an iPhoto library in a shared folder on an iMac and my wife accesses it from a Macbook. We do not use iPhoto concurrently. Both macs are connected (wired) to an Airport Extreme. iPhoto behaves well on the iMac (where the library resides but when we try to access it from the Macbook the events appear correctly and the thumbnails as well. When we click on an individual photo it appears for one second and then the screen goes blank. This is not consistent - pictures from a Canon S3IS are OK. Pictures from a Nikon D3000 usually cause cause the problem. I suspect it is related to the higher resolution of the pictures, Any ideas? Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions Lancaster,
    iPhoto has a built in sharing ability that allows you to share photos iPhoto 7.0 Help (iLife '08): Sharing your photos between computers on a network
    Accessing the iPhoto Library package over a network connection using File Sharing is not something I would recommend. The shear amount of the data you are trying to push actively across the network combined with the fact that iPhoto was not designed to read a streaming iPhoto Library may be the cause of your issue.
    Consider the following instead:
    - Copy the Library to your other computer locally
    - Use the built in sharing feature in iPhoto
    - Use MobileMe to share images (I like this option less because it does not necessarily share a full quality image file. )
    Hope that helps

  • Photos not loading correctly, distorted colors, lines, etc.

    So, my wife's Macbook is having a problem... it will not load pictures correctly in iPhoto or from the Finder. to give you an idea of what the pictures look like, see here:
    http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1949/149/17/633596272/n63359627222288712218.jpg
    Every time you remove the drive/ camera it will change how messed up it is, and sometimes the pictures come through fine... it's not the camera, as we have tried her old and new camera, and it loads fine on another computer, just not on hers.
    She's got a macbook loaded with the latest version of the OS with all the updates... she is running an old (5.5 I think) version of iphoto, which could be a problem, but it's hard to say because they load wrong even if you do not open iphoto... the only way I can get the pictures to load correctly on her computer is by opening them from the image capture application... they open fine inside the program, but once you download the images to the computer, they look messed up again, like in the linked photo...
    It definitely seems like a software related issue, maybe an incompatible codec associated with iphoto, or something else...
    I've tried trashing the iphoto prefs, and I don't know how long ago this started and AFAIK, there hasn't been any software installed that should create a conflict...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Will

    I just moved quicktime components to the trash to where quicktime will not load or work at all,
    What won’t “load or work at all”? Quicktime Player?
    I don't think that all of the imaging on the computer goes through quicktime somehow, that is a bit ridiculous and far fetched to think that...
    “ridiculous and far fetched”, like confusing QuickTime Player with the Quicktime technology? But what the heck, why don’t you explain to me how it all works then?

  • Copy and paste buffers not working correctly in iOS 8.1m

    Both iPads2's in my family arsenal are exhibiting what I believe to be a bug in the iOS8.1 (perhaps corrected by 8.1.1?), in the cut/copy & paste buffer stack.
    When invoking the operation to copy and paste data from one application to another, the paste action consistently selects the previous (e.g., stack level 2 rather than 1 or Top) data as what is to be pasted.
    In other words, if you have used the copy and paste routine twice, the second pasting will supply one with the paste data from the first operation, rather than the desired data from the second copy and paste operation.
    Copy and paste appears to work correctly from within a single application, but consistently fails when copying data from one application to another.
    Does anyone know of a work-around for this bug? Is it a bug that others have identified? Is there a new selection filter menu option for copy and paste operations, and what method is used to invoke the menu?
    I hope this is addressed soon, as I use Cut/Copy & Paste operations extensively (I've already had Carpal Tunnel Release surgery once and don't relish a repeat performance, no matter how successful the first was in correcting the damage).
    Any clues as to what's going on here?
    thanks in advance,
    labernache

    All you can do is simply see if iOS 8.1.1 helps you with this. With some people it has, and others it has not. I would also recommend doing a clean install of your system, too.
    Follow this procedure for a Troubleshooting Methodology ... basically reset to factory default condition -BUT- be sure to do the following methodically and also to follow the part with Apple Support!
    First you want to make sure you have several backups of your data and done with a couple of "different" sources. Be sure to understand what data is backed up and what is NOT on iCloud Backup and iTunes Backup. Use a variety of methods for backup ... you might check into Dropbox, in addition to your Apple options.
    Then turn off your desktop anti-virus software when using iTunes for this reset to factory default. After you do that reset, then leave your iPad in its factory default state and see how it operates then. If you encounter any problems in that factory default state, then take it to Apple Support, and let them know that you have just reset it to that state with iTunes and have not put any of your data back on and it is operating in this fashion (whatever the problem is) in that pristine state. Make sure you keep that trouble ticket number, because if it has to be escalated through Apple Support, you're going to find all communications tied in with that number. If the lower level help isn't able to help you, then escalate it to a higher level to examine the problem. Keep at it with that trouble ticket number until Apple Support arrives at a solution to that problem. Be methodical and keep at it.
    On the other hand, if everything is okay with the factory default condition, then restore your backup. Some people have discovered that the problem resides in the apps or something in the restored backup. If that's the case, then it's going to be trying and difficult to find out which developer's app is causing you the problem. And ... it's true ... that a developer not following Apple's instructions and guidelines for his app can CAUSE YOU TROUBLE. This kind of thing does happen from developers, especially when a new system upgrade comes out, because some developers ignore what Apple tells them about changes coming, and what they do BREAKS SOMETHING.
    This is a troubleshooting methodology that you are going through. See it through to the end.

  • Photos not importing correctly to iPhoto library

    I just realized that any photos I have been importing to the iPhoto library from somewhere on my hard drive rather than from an external device/camera have NOT actually been imported into the library, rather are still linked to the original file. This means that iPhoto can't always find the correct pathway to the correct file -- and it has backfired on me big time in that I ordered a $50 book and one of the images was wrong. Right thumbnail, but wrong actual photo, because the link had been lost. Beyond the aggravation that my book is now messed up and I apparently can't do anything about it since it's been more than 90 minutes, I want to fix this so that my iPhoto library is accurate and it doesn't happen again. I have been going to File - Import to Library, but it doesn't. It just links to the original file, which then can't be found once I reopen the program after quitting. Any advice? This only started happening since upgrading to '09, by the way.

    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
    If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

  • Some albums not organized correctly on iOS devices?

    I just activated Match yesterday.  For the most part, it works great!  I'm running into an issue where, in iTunes on multiple computers, if I go to a specific artist, all their albums are there in order.  Then, if I go to the same artist on any of my ios devices, only 2 of their albums will be there & the third one is missing.  the really strange part, is that if I do a search for that album on the ios device, it pops right up.  So, it is somewhere on there, just not being categorized with the correct artist, but only when looking for it on an ios device.  Any ideas?

    It could be a metadata mis-match. Look in settings > music and see if the option for "group by album artist" is selected. Then make sure all the albums do have the correct Album Artist specified.

  • Edited photos not saving correctly

    Sorry about the name. I am new to this program and I tried to join for an hour without success then my hubby took over!!! Now to my serious headache causing problem. After editing photos I saved them to my folder exactly as Adobe Help suggests, in Jpeg format. I can see them in my folder but the icon is blank and Properties suggest they are File format and not Jpeg. What am I doing wrong and how can I correct it...please?

      Can you try an experiment.
    1. Open Full Edit by clicking the edit button on the welcome screen.
    2. On the menu click File à Open
    3. Then open one of your images that has not been edited previously
    4. Make a quick edit e.g. on the menu click Enhance à Auto Levels
    5. Then on the menu click File à Save As
    6. In the save as dialog click the dropdown for Format
    7. Choose jpeg from the list and save.
    Let us know if that is working OK.

  • Group contacts did not work correctly since IOS 6

    Hi Guys,
    since update from IOS 5.1.1 to IOS 6.0 it isn't possible to show groups in Contact seperatly.
    Neither on my IPHONE 4 and now on my IPHONE 5.
    In IOS 5.x.x it was possible to list seperate groups.
    I tried this with my ICLOUD Account and also with my GMAIL Account.
    I need to have different group lists for my work - e.g "Private", "Work", ...
    In IOS 5.x.x it was possible to list the contact folder, than  click on "groups" and there it was possible to select the group i wanted.
    Than I've only seen the contacts from the selected group.
    Now since update to IOS 6 it doesen't work like this. There is only the opportunity to mark or unmark a contact group to list it seperately.
    Can You explain how this is going to work on IOS6 ??
    Or do You know an application to group contacts seperatly.
    I set up my GMAIL Account as "Exchange Account" to see the contact groups.
    It's nessecary that it syncronises correctly with my GMAIL Account, because I also use an IPAD.
    I've over 250 contacts, so it has to work correctly.
    I can't understand, why apple removed this feature in IOS 6.
    I hope you know what I mean.
    Very nice greetings
    Roland

    Do you really have them all? I created a group I wanted and synced the phone. Now my phone contacts has 2 groups, all contacts and phone contacts. However, when I scroll to the bottom of the contacts list, both show the same 164 contacts, not all the 470 contacts in my address book. I have just the contacts I wanted, but it is confusing by having the "all contacts" list on the phone. They are really just the same lists.

  • HDR photos not combined correctly

    As you may know, when you take a photo with HDR enabled, the iPhone takes 3 photos in rapid succession. It takes one that's in normal exposure, one that's underexposed and one that's overexposed. The iPhone combines these 3 photos with its own algorithm to produce an HDR photo.
    Now, when I take an HDR photo with my iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1, most of the time, there aren't any problems. However, the HDR photos sometimes aren't combined correctly, especially when taking photos of grids, straight lines, etc.
    (The size of the photos below were reduced. Annotation was added and GPS information was removed. No other changes were made.)
    Do you have this issue as well or do you think it's a software issue which will be fixed in iOS 6? Thanks in advance.

    Sorry. Can't see any of the attachments.
