but this folder is 2.01 GB.. much more than the 1.7 GB of my pictures..
the folder has various folder inside.. F00 to F50 and a photo database files..
inside these F00-F50 there are some .ithmb files and i ve no idea of wat they are..
my 1.7 GB pictures folder is actually takin 3.79 GB now..
do i need to have this folder in order to keep my photos syncronized with my ipod or is there a way to remove it..??
Any help will be appreciated.. thank u.

  • Ipod touch will not sync with itunes using windows 7 makes everything freeze

  • Cannot get iPod to sync with iTunes using Windows 8 Laptop!

    I have been trying to get my iPod classic to sync up with iTunes using my Windows 8 Laptop all night!  I tried restoring the iPod, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, disconnecting my iPod to restart my laptop then plugging back in.  I also ran iTunes Diagnostics and it says my iPod isn't connected yet it shows on the sidebar.  I also have automatic sync set up.  When I hit sync, it initializes then stops.  What am I doing wrong?  Is there some trick I am missing.  Also, my iPod won't charge unless it is syncing.  What's up with that?
    Any help or advice would really be appreciated! 
    Thank you in advance.

    For the charging issue, some newer computers with USB 3.0 ports (especially laptops) seem to have a "feature" that saves energy by turning off full power to the port when the connected storage device is no longer mounted by the system.  An iPod is a storage device.  When iTunes syncs the iPod, iTunes mounts the iPod's dlsk.  So it gets full power on the port, and the battery charges.  When iTunes is done syncing, iTunes automatically unmounts the iPod's disk.  The system shuts off full power to the port, and the battery no longer charges.
    To work around this problem, go to the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes.  There is a setting their for Enable disk use.  Check that box and Apply.  This setting keeps the iPod's disk mounted continuously, when the iPod is connected.  Therefore, the port should continue to receive full power, and the battery charges.  That's fine for now, but later on, you can go into the computer's Control Panel preferences to see if there is a setting that disables this "energy saver" feature, and keeps the USB ports at full power all the time, whether the storage device is mounted or not.  If that is possible, you can turn OFF Enable disk use for the iPod.
    NOTE:  WIth disk use enabled, you need to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it safely from USB.  The Eject button is next to the iPod's name in iTunes (to the right).
    Now, for your main question about setting up automatic syncing...  First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  When connected, the iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.
    Select the iPod in the sidebar.  To the right, its Summary screen is shown.  Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary.  Click on Music there, next to Summary.  This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  This setting enables automatic syncing.  If you want your entire iTunes music library on your iPod (and it fits), choose the option to sync Entire music library.  Then click Apply.  Going forward, any change you make to your iTunes music library syncs to the iPod automatically (at the next opportunity).

  • TS2529 Itunes won't sync with Ipod in Windows 7 64bit

    I have Windows 7 64bit Pro.  I have an Apple Ipod Touch 3G.  I have the latest 10.6 iTunes software 32bit version.  (64 bit version too unstable.)  I plug my Ipod Touch into computer, I hear the "beep" that my computer recognizes it's plugged in, but iTunes doesn't recognize it nor will it sync with it.  I can't force it to sync in the iTunes menu under "File" either.

  • ITunes 7.1 does not sync with ipod in windows vista

    I have windows vista ultimate. I downloaded itunes 7 and I was able to transfer the songs from itunes to my ipod. But when I downloaded the updated version of itunes (that is version 7.1) the computer as well as itunes recognises my ipod but it would not transfer the new songs I imported on itunes into my ipod.
    I unistalled itunes and reinstalled it but still facing the same problem, I also reset my ipod but songs would just not transfer from itunes to my ipod. Can anyone advice me on what to do or is it a problem with itunes 7.1 that apple is working on fixing ?

    I found the answer.....the problem was with the ipod....just had to restore the ipod and all was fine after that

  • ITunes not syncing with iPod in Windows 7 64 bit

    I installed the 64 bit version of iTunes 10.5 on my 64 bit version of windows 7 on my hp dv6 laptop. No matter what I do everytime I connect the ipod to the laptop, itunes always tells me I need to uninstall itunes and install the 64 bit version even though that is the version that is installed.

    I'm guessing no body knows the answer to this problem.

  • ITunes won't sync with ipod clickwheel (windows xp)

    Yes, this is yet another problem happening right after updating to the new itunes. Everything seems to be working just fine on iTunes and the 'pod, but when it syncs, nothing happens. it just says the normal ipod updating message for about 5 seconds, then does says ipod updated. The problem is that I keep checking my ipod afterwards, and it hasn't actually updated anything. what a liar!

    This Apple knowledge-base article may help address that issue.

  • HT4236 if i sync with ipad using pc will i lose my photos in the ipad phot library?

    if i sync with ipad using pc will i lose my photos in the ipad phot library?

    You won't lose photos that you've taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit or saved from emails/websites - those photos aren't affected by syncing.
    If they are photos that were originally synced from a computer and this isn't the same computer, then you should be prompted as to whether you want them replacing - but there is a risk that they will be removed.

    skyreburn26 may be correct; however, it may be more than just formatting it so windows can see it.

    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    Note: This article is for Windows users. If you have a Mac, we have a separate article for you if your iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or on the Mac desktop.
    Can't see your iPod in iTunes or Windows Explorer? Remember these five basic suggestions when you run into a problem with your iPod. If one of the following doesn’t help, read on for solutions to specific problems.
    Tip: Check Device Manager first (right-click on My Computer, choose Manage, and then select Device Manager). If no devices appear in the Windows Device Manager, go here.
    Before starting, make sure your iPod is fully charged and then toggle the Hold switch on and off.
    Reset your iPod.
    Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall , Restore
    Reset your iPod.
    Retry with a different USB port.
    Restart your computer and make sure you have the latest software updates installed.
    Remove iTunes software and then reinstall iPod and iTunes software from latest versions on the web.
    Restore your iPod. See “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” in the user's guide.
    Still can't see your iPod?
    Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or Windows Explorer. The most likely causes are listed below—you'll find information for both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) iPod connections. Check each one starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but not in iTunes or iPod Updater
    If your iPod shows up in My Computer, but iTunes and iPod Updater don't recognize it, there may be a software conflict, or iPod Service didn't load. You may see an "iPod Service Error" alert or a "Please Reinstall iTunes" message.
    If you see either of these messages, try the solutions in this article to resolve the issue.
    Laptop or portable connecting via USB?
    See iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB for more information.
    Your computer doesn't meet iPod system requirements
    Make sure that your computer meets the system requirements to use iPod for Windows.
    Your iPod displays an exclamation point folder or sad iPod icon, or doesn't appear in iTunes or My Computer
    If your iPod displays a folder with an exclamation point icon or a sad (unhappy) iPod icon on its screen, or if your iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or My Computer, follow these instructions to resolve the issue.
    Your iPod isn't formatted for Windows
    iPod for Windows Software only recognizes iPod for Windows. You cannot use iPod for Macintosh with a Windows PC. To see which platform your iPod is formatted for, follow these instructions.
    Your iPod isn't connected to a high-power USB port
    If you're connecting an iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle to your Windows computer, make sure that you're connecting it to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer (not a low-power one such as the USB port on your keyboard or bus-powered USB hub).
    Typically, USB 2.0 high-power ports are located directly on your computer. Try connecting your iPod to another USB port on the computer (or to a self-powered USB 2.0 hub that's connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer) if the computer still doesn't recognize your iPod. Alternatively, if your computer has a FireWire connection, try using that instead.
    If you're connecting an iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle to a Windows laptop computer through USB, connect the laptop to a power outlet before connecting your iPod.
    You're not using a WHQL-certified IEEE 1394 card
    If you have a FireWire (IEEE 1394) card installed in your computer and are using it to connect your iPod, make sure that the card is Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL) certified. If it isn't, your iPod may not be recognized, or you may not be able to send music to the iPod.
    If you're not sure about your card's WHQL certification, check the inbox material that came with your FireWire card or contact the card's manufacturer. You can view a list of WHQL-certified cards on the Windows Hardware Compatibility List website. To view this:
    Go to the Windows Hardware Compatibility List website.
    Enter All Products in the "Search for" field.
    From the Product Categories pop-up menu, choose 1394 Controller.
    Click the Search Now button.
    Note: Windows XP information is not listed on the initial search screen, but is listed when you click on an individual card.
    You can also check the list of recommended FireWire and USB cards that have been tested by Apple with iPod and Windows XP. (Apple sells FireWire cards that are compatible with iPod at the Apple Store.)
    To rule out an issue with your FireWire card, try connecting a different FireWire device to the card to see if your computer recognizes it.
    Your connections aren't secure
    Make sure that there is nothing in or blocking your computer's USB (or FireWire) port, and that the cable connections to your iPod and computer are secure.
    Your iPod cable is faulty
    Make sure that you are using the cable that came with your iPod. Some third-party cables may not work properly with iPod.
    Make sure that nothing is in or blocking your computer's USB or FireWire port.
    Check the connections to make sure that the cable is completely plugged in.
    Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    If swapping out your old cable for another resolves the issue, then your original cable should be replaced.
    Your iPod isn't charged or getting power
    Your iPod must have enough of a charge for your computer to recognize it. Connect your iPod to its power adapter or to a high-power port on your computer to charge your iPod if the battery is depleted. If you have an iPod nano, click here for more information. If your iPod is connected through FireWire but isn't getting power from the FireWire bus, your computer may not recognize it.
    Your computer's port may be faulty
    If another FireWire or USB port is available on your computer, try connecting your iPod to it. If you are using FireWire and have a USB cable to connect to the iPod, try using USB instead. If you are using USB and have a FireWire port and cable to connect to the iPod, try using FireWire instead.
    If your computer recognizes your iPod after trying a different port, the original port could be faulty.
    Note: iPod will not automatically wake up if you connect it to a 4-pin FireWire port. You must press the Select button (the wheel's center button) on the iPod to wake it from sleep.
    There's a conflict in the FireWire chain
    Your computer may not recognize your iPod if there's a device conflict in the FireWire chain. To see if this is the case:
    Disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire ports.
    Connect your iPod to your computer's FireWire port.
    If your computer recognizes your iPod, you should troubleshoot for FireWire device conflicts.
    Your computer needs to be restarted
    Sometimes simply restarting your computer can resolve issues.
    Your FireWire card isn't recognized by Windows
    Make sure that Windows recognizes your FireWire card. Follow these steps to find out if Windows sees your card.
    Third-party software may be causing conflicts
    Some third-party software (such as security software) may prevent your computer from recognizing your iPod. Try adjusting the settings of such software, or temporarily disabling it, to see if that resolves the issue.
    Your iPod hard disk's format is damaged or was altered
    If you reformatted the hard disk on your iPod, or if something has damaged or altered the disk's format, iTunes or My Computer may not recognize iPod. To resolve this issue, you may need to restore iPod.
    Warning: The restore process will delete all of your songs and files on the iPod. This process cannot be undone. Always make a backup of your important data before restoring your iPod.
    iPod Software needs to be installed (or reinstalled)
    Make sure that you install the iPod for Windows Software from the iPod for Windows CD that came with your iPod. The iPod Watcher should appear in the system tray. If you don't see it, you will need to reinstall the iPod for Windows Software.
    There may be an issue with your computer
    If another computer is available, verify that the same issues happen with the other computer. If the other computer recognizes your iPod, you may want to troubleshoot for issues with your original computer.
    Your iPod needs service
    If after following these steps your computer still doesn't recognize iPod, see the iPod Service website to arrange for service.

  • Can't open RAW photos on elements 10 using windows XP. is there a solution?

    i'm using a Nikon D3300 and can't open RAW photos on elements 10 using windows XP. none of the plugins i've tried worked.
    please help.  i really don't want to have to buy a new version of elements or a new computer.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately the Nikon D3300 requires camera raw 8.4 which is not compatible with PSE 10.
    Even worse, the DNG Converter 8.4 will not run on a XP or Vista comtuter.
    I don't know if the software that came with the D3300 will run on the XP system but if it does, your only option would be to use it to convert the NEF files to TIF files and then PSE 10 will be able to use the TIF files.
    I think that you really need to think about upgrading your system sooner than later.

  • Can't connect to Store or Sync with ipod. All music lost on iPod

    Multiple severe problems. Is there any live support anywhere,even if there's a fee? Can't connect to iTunes store on Windows XP, tried to move music to new computer, changed to manual setting to do that, but now, there's no music on the new computer or the iPod and I can't get the music on the library of the old computer to sync with iPod and can't create a backup disc, as I get an unknown error. My 10-year old daughter is in tears. Thanks for any help. Would like to get the music back on the iPod and on the new computer. I authorized it.

    There's phone support for iPods and they might be able to help you with iTunes or at least point you in the right direction.

  • HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing.  Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
    There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
    More things you can do:
    With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
    I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not.  You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing.  As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos.  I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special.  Any way - search around to find answers.
