Photos will not sync on wifi after update

Hi all,
Updated my iPhone 6 to 8.3 the other day and also updated my late 2012 MBP (running Yosemite) to replace iPhoto with the new photos app.
Before these updates, all of my photos would sync to iPhoto when i connected the phone to our wifi and opened iPhoto. Since the update, it just will not work any more. Does anyone ha

Hey niall.harper,
I see that you are using the new Photos app on your computer running Yosemite and have some questions about syncing photos. It sounds like iPhoto was previously syncing to your Photo Stream in iCloud and that was pulling in your photos when you opened iPhoto from a Wi-Fi connection. You can have the same functionality in the new Photos app, you just may need to turn on My Photo Stream:

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

    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

  • TS4036 My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud.

    My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud. When I go to iCloud.com my photostream is not there.

    A response I put together from another post. Also going into iTunes and choosing to sync phone to iCloud then back "this computer" sometimes works.
    First thing.. Stop where you are. Don't try to sync, update, hard reset, iCloud... Just stop.
    Check on your phone under 'SETTINGS' 'GENERAL' USAGE'. It should show some value for PHOTOSTREAM. Also, connect to iTunes and you will notice at the bottom of your phones summary page that there is a large amount of 'OTHER' data.
    I used third party software called iExplorer (formerly iPhone explorer). In this program you select 'MEDIA FOLDER', then 'DCIM'. In the various apple folders (IE: 101APPLE) you should be able to preview your photos and copy them to your desktop.
    From there sync them back to your device through iTunes or whatever method you use.
    There is a simpler solution I'm sure, which may involve using iExplorer to delete some .plist files then restart the phone and let it rebuild. I'm going to try it myself AFTER I've finished copying all the photos to my MAC
    Hope this helps.

  • My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    I had the same thing happen to me.  It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
    The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library".  This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty.  Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
    It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing.  Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices.  If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
    I spent an hour with an Apple Genius.  he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system.  His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system.  I suspect that this won't solve it.
    The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
    I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

  • Photos will not sync across devices in iOS 8.1

    I have iOS 8.1.1 on both my iPad and my iPhone 5. After installing the new iOS and selecting 'iCloud Photo Library (Beta)' on both devices, the 'my photo stream' folder has disappeared and photos will not sync across devices. Everything was fine prior to installing the new iOS. Can anyone help me to fix this? Thank you!

    Hi sueb21,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta there are some differences from what you may be use to. Please read over the attached article for information on how your pictures are now organized and for how you can turn it off if you choose to do so.
    iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    What happened to the My Photo Stream and Camera Roll albums?
    The Camera Roll and My Photo Stream album are replaced with an All Photos album, which gives you the same compact scroll view, now with all your photos and videos organized by the date they were added. Learn more about finding photos in iOS 8.
    After you enable iCloud Photo Library, all your original photos and videos are organized in one library. My Photo Stream will upload recent photos to share with your other devices, but iCloud Photo Library stores your originals. See how to upload originals below.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • Address Book Contact Photos will not sync over to iPhone 2G

    So here is the deal. I just bought a new 21.5" iMac w/ Snow Leopard. I had a iMac G5 with Leopard previously and rather than using migration assistant, i just copied over the applicable folders and files (per my research) so that my contacts would be present on the new computer. Everything seems fine except the contact photos will not sync over to my iPhone. Has anyone run across this? Help is greatly appreciated!
    Cheers

    any body?

  • Photos will not sync on iTunes 11

    Plugging in the latest iPad with the latest iTunes, select the folder of new photos I want on my iPad and hey presto, nothing.
    ITunes does freeze quit a bit and says that it has performed the sync, but nothing on the iPad.  ITunes 10 did this with no problems, since the update to 11 I can't sync photos using a 32 bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
    The other annoying thing is that it gets into iTunes screen and there is no icon to get into the iPad.  The userbility of iTunes 11 is awfull and not Mac typical at all.  What moron allowed this rubbish to be released?  iTunes 11 is as buggy as **** with userbility issues.

    You may find the following steps make iTunes 11 more bearable
    1) Ctrl + B to turn on the top menu
    2) View > Show Sidebar to turn on left panel showing Library, Devices, Playlists etc
    3) View > Show Status Bar to see song info at the bottom in grey bar
    4) Click on arrow in Search Box and untick Search Entire Library -  this will increase performance and revert Search to the way it worked in iTunes 10
    Photos do not sync to PC via itunes instead your Photo Application, Elements or whatever should fire up and import them. Do you need to check your import seetings in whatever app you use?

  • Touch will not sync with nook after 5.0.1

    Touch will not sync  nook, but ipad will sync.

    Hi,
       I set up another windows computer I had which run XP and got it to sync there. I cant get WIFI syncing working though.
    After that I went back to my Netbook which had the problem and now it works!!!
    This one runs Win 7 Starter and is the one I normally do not use.
    WIFI sync does not work on the WIN 7 one either, but never has.
    We have aMAC in the house and another iPad and no troubles WIFI syncing with that one.
    So this problem is solved.
    Not sure why it started to work again on the netbook but may be after a couple of reboots etc
    I also flushed he previous syncs.
    Seems like it worked after syncing with a different machine.
    Any way all seems well for now
    Thanks to all for help above,
    Richard

  • Photos will not sync to iPhoto

    Photos that I take with my iPhone appear fine on the phone, but will not sync (unreadable file) or are corrupt (blackout or whiteout stripes or funky neon colors). I read another post that asked about other items plugged into the USB port, but all I have is a wireless Apple mouse that uses a DLINK bluetooth adapter in the USB port next to the one my iPhone is using. This is the second consecutive set of photos I cannot download, so it is not the photos themselves, but something else.

    Ziggy,
    Just so you know, iPhone's email shrinks the images to 640 x 480 for sending. The only way to get a full quality image off your camera is by syncing so you need to get that problem resolved. Do you have your iPhone connected by a USB hub or are there any other USB devices connected to your computer? It's been reported that these can garble photos. Make sure your iPhone is plugged directly to the computer USB port and nothing else is connected. Also sometimes scanner software can be trying to access a USB port even when not plugged in.

  • Photos will not sync to iphone5

    Just got my new iphone5 today. When I first sync'd it my photos transfered fine but now no matter what I do it will not sync photos, it always comes up with the error 'not enough memory'. Everything else syncs fine to my phone, even a 2GB game. I even tried deleteing everything and resetting my phone and even when it was completely blank and reset it would not sync photos.
