  • ITunes 7.1 and photos not syncing anymore

    I am hoping for a little help from the knowledgeable forum members. I updated to the latest version of iTunes and now my iPod/iTunes will not sync with my photo library in Elements 3.0. It worked fine until now and it is giving me an “unknown error (-50)” whatever that means. I have tried running the “repair” option on installation and I have tried reinstalling iTunes without any luck. Elements 3.0 is running fine. Any ideas…

    i'm with CoJeff on this one.
    typically it's the firewall with NIS 2005 (or standalone Norton Personal Firewall) that causes grief with iTunes. (we've had these issues dating back to the iTunes 4.8 days with NIS 2005), but every now and then i see reports of that worm protection feature causing grief in similar ways.
    the amount of reports of problems with NIS 2006 and 2007 are literally a couple of orders of magnitude less than with NIS 2005. so it may be worth just upgrading to one of the more recent versions.
    ... if you'd prefer to stick with your 2005, though, let us know and we can try running through a few of techniques we've used to deal with this.

  • Iphone 4s on iOS 7 - contacts do not sync anymore

    contacts in my iPhone 4s do not sync anymore. other apps (ical, photos, reminders, mail) are ok. as of now I need to sync contacts manually. I also have two MacBooks and an iPad and they are all in sync among themselves, but the iPhone itself is out of reach. Is there a way to reset Contacts only for iPhone and get it back to normal?

    Hey puntodifuga,
    There are a few things that you can do to get your contacts to sync over if you are using iCloud. Lets start with that and go over the article below to start that process so you can be synced up.

  • Ive changed my hard drive on my pc tower does that mean my iphone 5 is not synced anymore so if i want to add a new pictures folder will it erase my other pictures?

    Each time you sync photos from a computer to an iPhone using iTunes, the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone are set to match the current settings/selections on the photos page of iTunes. If you moved your previously synced photos to the new computer and if you select them to be synced to the phone along with any new photos you want synced then they will all go to the phone. If you don't include them in the selection to be synced, they will be deleted from the phone. Note that you can rearrange the old photos into different photos on the computer if desired, sync just some of them if desired, etc. Each time you sync, the phone is set to match the current settings for photos.

  • Some Photos Not Syncing to iPad 1, but issue is not the photos.

    Some Photos Not Syncing:  When syncing iPad1 64gb IOS 5.0.1 w/HP desktop, some but not all jpgs sync from a folder.  (There is ample free space on the iPad.)  The issue is not the photo files as I have verified that the jpg's are all compatible both through Adobe CS5 and by successfully getting the photos to sync to the iPad by making a copy of them and placing this duplicitous copy in a 2nd temporary folder, which then sync's all the jpg's to the iPad just fine.  Still, it makes no sense why they won't all sync from the main photo folder. 
    [Folder structure is:  Sync My Photos Folder; Subfolder 1 syncs all; Subfolder 2 syncs some; Subfolder 3 syncs all.  But if I add a new Temp Subfolder 2a and copy non-syncing photos in it, then I am able to sync all teh photos.]
    This is a very inconvenient situation, and it wastes space on my desktop harddrive as I have to have all the photos in the main folder--not the temp folder--to which they ar assinged.  Has anyone else encountered this, and is there an explanation or solution for this issue?
    Thanks.

  • Iphone 4s will not sync anymore

    will not sync anymore, stopped suddenly

    A number of people have reported bluetooth and wifi problems with the newer iOS. While I have not experienced it, I can only say to check in the "More Like This" section in the right side of this thread. The ones with the green check mean they have been answered. Something there may assist you.
    User troubleshooting includes restart, reset (which you have already done), restore from a backup, and restore as a new device. A restore can result in the loss of data, which is normally put back if you use the backup. Restore as new device deletes everything and the phone is as new. This is the last resort prior to a visit to the Apple store to have the hardware diagnosed. If you are unsure about backups and restores, you can look at this support document prior to doing any of that. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Photos not syncing after update to photo app

    photos not uploading to photo app after update, I have over 10,000 photos that are trying to upload and the last import says 2013 instead of last week.   I have a MacBook pro and my icloud sharing is on and I purchased more space so that is not the problem

    i can sync movies, music, podcasts and tv shows just fine, but whenever i try to sync photos, then i am getting the exclamation mark and nothing - not even the movies and tv shows that worked before - get synched anymore.
    This seems contradictory, I'm not clear whether music, movies etc work for you or not.
    In regard to the photos, make sure iphoto sharing is enabled and not blocked by your firewall, you could try creating a new photo library in the same location but with a different name to your existing library to avoid overwriting it, to see if it's a photo library issue or something else.

  • Iphone and Ical on mac do not sync anymore. All my events are in the iphone calendar! How do I backup iphone calendar, and how do I fix the syncronizing problem?

    After getting iCloud the iCal on my mac does not sync with my iPhone calendar. All of my calendar notes are in my iPhone (while the mac's Ical remains empty) so I need to backup the iphone version. How?
    Itunes says that "your calendars are being syncronized with iphone using icloud" - but the mac's ical does not show any of the new events I have added on my iphone.
    I would like to install the new update on my iphone, but I am afraid to do it without knowing that I will be able to restore my iphone calendar. I have made calendar events for many years to come, I and will not risk losing them!
    I have been looking for tips online, but the solutions usually suggest that I backup the ical on the mac and start fresh using this version. In other words overwrite iphone calendar with the ical from the mac. Which is not an option. What can I do?

    Moments in Photos are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos sorted by date taken.
    When the iPhoto Library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created in the sidebar titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
    There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
    When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N.  Name it as desired.  It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
    When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
    The downside to the simulation is that the Albums/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can also be sorted manually, either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
    Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • Photos Not Syncing; Photos Missing From Albums, No Error Message, Running iTunes for Windows & iOS 7.1.2

    I am having an issue with syncing my photos on my iOS devices running iOS 7.1.2, the two being an iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G.
    When I sync photos, I keep on having photos turn up missing from entire albums. I have tried everything I can to resolve this issue from the support article titled <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3697">iTunes: Unable to sync photos</a>, and nothing has successfully worked in any kind of permanent form. I have even gone so far as to sync albums individually with a limit of around 400-500 total photos per sync, (give or take), and tried using what very little options I have on the photos tab for my devices in iTunes to essentially trick the devices to sync the missing photos. Despite this, iTunes still fails to sync newly added photos from the source location.
    I have even made the attempt of re-installing iOS 7 on both devices, and restoring from backup. Again with no avail.
    My best guess for my iPhone is that as it is a 16 GB, not all of 15.6 GB of photos will sync to the device, (go figure), but that doesn't explain why recent photos aren't added OR why my iPad 2 of 64 GB has missing photos.
    As of this post, I have an estimated 38,940 files, spread across 1,703 folders, (a large amount of folders being in some of the folders; from my knowledge never being more than two folders in). They are all in one dedicated folder on a hard drive I've dedicated to iTunes and music related files, (for the sake of AVOIDING this kind of nonsense, I might add).
    As for the system OS and iTunes, I am running Windows 7 64 bit, and I am using iTunes 11.2.2.3, but will have updated to iTunes 11.3 by the time anyone responds.

    I have the exact same problem.
    Same kind of photos/videos taken with the same camera randomly sync.
    Did 11.3 fix this issue?
    Sincerely

  • ICloud Photo not syncing + High CPU process (Win 8.1 pro)

    This is a new persistent issue with my iCloud and I can't figure out how to fix it permanently because I was able to fix it few days ago, but issues return back a day later! So here's the full story...
    I just received a new (AWESOME!!) Surface Pro 3 i5 256 GB tablet with Windows 8.1 professional. I installed iCloud on it as well as iTunes and Quicktime (the basics isn't it?). When setting up my iCloud account first, everything sync up correctly but after a few days (3-4 days), I notice than my Surface tablet are becoming pretty hot and making some fan noise (common Surface issue) when I didn't use it really. So I checked for a high-CPU process and I noticed than "iCloud Photo Stream Downloader" are stuck at 30-35% CPU for an hours ago. Moreover at this point I realized than my photos are not syncing for a few days. I fix the high-CPU process by rebooting, but my photo are still not syncing at all and after a few minutes after reboot, the "downloader" process stuck back to 30-35% and still not syncing!
    So I first try some of the workaround found on the internet like sign out iCloud app, then kill all iCloud related process and delete folder %appdata%/Apple/Mediastream and reboot and sign in... same thing... after a few minutes, high-CPU usage + not syncing! I try to "repair" iCloud installation... same thing (high CPU + not syncing)... I uninstalled iCloud + reinstalled... same thing!
    I finally fix the situation by uninstalling ALL Apple related software (iTunes, iCloud, Quicktime, Apple Soft Upd, Apple Mobile Sup, Apple App Sup, Bonjour, etc) and thereafter deleting all "Apple_xxxx" folders in %appdata% and also remove all registry keys from the Windows Registry related to Apple. Reboot then reinstall iTunes first and then run "Apple Soft Upd" to install automatically iCloud + Quicktime... then reboot, sign in and then the photo finally sync this time and no high-CPU process!
    But a days later... High CPU + Fan noise on the tablet... so checked and the god **** "iCloud Photo Downloader" are again stuck at 30-35% and no more photo sync (I saw the old photos, but not the last day's photo are not sync).
    Anybody experience this situation and know how to fix it PERMANENTLY? I checked at my Apple iCloud LOGS and the only thing I saw that can be suspicious is the last line of the log who's :
    [2472 @ Tue Nov 11 19:45:09 2014] [YSLog ApplePhotoStreamsDownloader.exe] defaults key ShouldLog in domain ApplePhotoStreamsDownloader.exe is (null)
    Please help!!

    In fact I discovered later I have this issue on all my Windows computers... both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, both MACs (BootCamp) or true PC computers. Except only the Surface Pro 3 tablet seem to have the HIGH-CPU process issue, but all my other Windows PCs stopped syncing too after a few weeks or so.
    I just build a BRAND NEW HP Pro Desktop computer running Windows 8.1 Professional and a few days later iCloud Photo stopped syncing too... this is the straw that broke the camel's back! This PC is brand new and no other software are installed except iCloud, iTunes, QuickTime and Microsoft Office 2013 (Office 365). PC is brand new (1 week old) and iCloud Photos sync is already broken!
    I also have a few Windows 7 PCs at home (HTPCs on TVs) where iCloud Control Panel is installed and after looking at them, they stopped syncing too for a while (many months ago) but I didn't noticed it yet because I don't check photos often on them.
    For now I just give up and disabled the iCloud Photo Sync completely on all my Windows PCs. It only sync between my two iPads, my two iPhones and my two Macs computer (MBPr + iMac 27") and that's it... that's sad, but I'm tired loosing my time with that crappy software!
    PLEASE APPLE!! MAKE ICLOUD FOR WINDOWS BETTER!!

  • BlackBerry Desktop Software not syncing anymore after OS 10.7.2 update

    And once again,
    My two favorite IT toys are not communicating anymore, wasting my time...
    My upgraded Mac (10.7.2) doesn't seem to be talking the same language as my BB anymore, since it does not sync...
    Help is, of course, welcome

    Same for me. I think it's icloud related problem. No one can help us???

  • New Photos not sync'ing to iTunes

    I think this happened before... I noticed that the Photos on Mac is changed. Though I don't really like the interface, I am trying to get used to it... however, once again, the photos are not sync'ing properly to iTunes... I need help... For example: there are more number of photos on my laptop after importing from my phone... Then I grouped them into different Events. However, I am not seeing these being sync back into my phone via the iTunes.
    I happened before, and for some reasons, it get fixed by itself. DO you acknowledge these is a problem?

    HI,
    Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
    and really have the sidebar so because it will help you get the pictures organized
    Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
    On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
    if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
    once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
    there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
    Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
    For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit. 
    when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

  • Photos not syncing in order

    The photos I want loaded to my ipod are not syncing in the same order they are in the file on my computer. I have tried renaming them in the order I want them and as far as I can tell they aren't loading based on file size, or the date they were created either. Can anyone tell me how to get my pictures to load to my Ipod in the same order I have them in on my computer?

    I have just read the article.
    "If you are using iPhoto for Mac OS X, your photos automatically sort on your device in the same order they are sorted in iPhoto or Aperture. Changes made to the sorting of your pictures in your iPhoto or Aperture albums and events will be reflected on the device after syncing."
    Well I am using OS X on my MacBook and the photos from iPhoto do not sync on my iPad in the correct event order.
    Where do we go from here?
