Smart albums not syncing to my iPad?

(This may be the wrong forum. Happy to learn of a better one, if so!)
Setting up Photos on my Mac Mini went very smoothly, as did getting things into the iCloud photo library, and then out again on my iPad Air 2. But the smart albums I make heavy use of apparently didn't sync. Is there anything I should be doing to fix that?

Hi - thanks for replying.
As mentioned in my original post, they all display correctly when viewing iCloud.com via the browser. They are also syncing to and from there if I change things on either the laptop or the iphone. Syncing between those works perfectly well.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

  • Aperture Smart Album not Syncing with iPhone

    I have my photos checked to sync from Aperture to my iPhone. The Projects that I have selected sync fine, but I have a smart album checked and the smart album does not sync. What can I do to get the smart album to sync?

  • HT201317 why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Smrt album not syncing all photos to iPhone

    I made a smart album today, and then chose to sync that smart album to my iPhone from iTunes.  However, iTunes syncs only 5 photos.  Aperture tells me there are 86 photos. 
    I figured the problem was that only 5 photos had previews generated.  However, I have used the Update Preview function on 6 photos, as well as the Generate Preview function on 6 photos.  However, iTunes still says there are only 5 photos in the smart album.  (I chose 6 photos because in the best case for my test, I would get 6 new previews, while in the worst case I would get 1 new preview.  In any case, I would get some new previews.)
    When I use iPhoto to "Show Aperture Library", I see only 5 photos as well.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this smart album to sync?  Am I on the right track with the previews?
    thanks,
    nathan

    Huskte,
    Yes, other albums sync, although I have only 1 other album selected.  The rest of the Aperture -> iPhone integration is done by iTunes's "All projects within the past x days" selection.  Come to think of it, I'm not sure if they are all there...  I will have to check that out.
    Good suggestion, however, I'm pretty darn sure it doesn't have to do with the iPod Photo cache.  I tested the Aperture sharing capability by looking at this smart album through iPhoto, and it (like iTunes) says only 5 photos are in the smart album.  It's something to check when I get back to the mac, though.

  • HT203180 I have bought several tv seasons from the itunes store. Recently some episodes will not sync with my ipad. The error message is that the file "could not be read or written". Previous episodes of the same series synced successfully.

    I have bought several tv seasons from the itunes store. Recently some episodes will not sync with my ipad. The error message is that the file "could not be read or written". Previous episodes of the same series synced successfully. Also while watching the same episode on my laptop (Mac Book Pro) it freezes.

    I had this same message appear today when i was putting new music on my ipod touch 4th gen. The only difference is that I wasnt using an external drive. I was using the one on my computer. This is the first time i have had this problem

  • I am adding new photos to my PC windows 7 desktop but they are not syncing to my ipad.  how can i get these photos to sync

    I am adding new photos to  my PC windows 7 desktop but they are not syncing to my ipad when I sync the Ipad.  How can I get these photos into my Ipad?

    you and I know that your answer works because that is how I sync my ipad.  I don't have a mac, just a PC with itunes. Now this guy might not even have itunes and is using Windows Media Player or something like that.
    Or maybe he just do not want his problem fixed.  I read these forums and too many of the questions are just way beyond basic computer knowledge, but it seems to happen that they can never resolve a very simple problem.  It makes me wonder if people just post bogus stuff.
    I would like to see registration to the forums attached to the product serial number of the forum you are posting to.  I bet you that the posts would drop dramatically.

    You will need to restore the iPad using Recovery Mode. Since you are using a computer that you have never synced with in the past, you will have to erase the device and will lose all content. You will be able to download your purchased content as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought the content with in the first place - as long as the content is still available and the downloading of past purchases is available in your country.
    Recovery Mode explained here ...

    Hi marcmartineau,
    I'm not sure why this is happening, but I think I'm seeing the same thing. Many times when I get an email on the iPad or iPhone with a picture attached, I don't see the picture but instead just a placeholder icon.
    I have found a work around though to at least see the picture. If I forward it and include the attachment, I see the picture in the outgoing email. I can even save the image from the sending email if I really don't want to send it. If i do send it to myself, chances are I will see the picture in the email when I receive it even though it's just a resend of the original.
    weird.

  • I purchased a book from itunes and see it in my purcahsed library, but it did not sync to my ipad, is there something i need to do

    I purchased a book from Itunes and see it in my purcahsed library.  However, it did not sync to my ipad.  is there something i can do to move it to my ibooks on my ipad?

    If you purchased it on your computer's iTunes then have did you select it to sync to your iPad (via the iPad's Books tab on your computer's iTunes) ?. On your iPad you can also turn Settings > Store > Books 'on' so that iBooks purchases made on your computer or other iOS device are automatically downloaded to it. You can also re-download the book for free directly on your iPad : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • Aperture 3.0.3 will not sync images with iPad via iTunes correctly

    I've read the forums looking for a solution to why my Aperture 3 library will not sync with my iPad when it is connected in iTunes. I have tried creating another Aperture library (which I then fill with a few images) and iTunes is able to see and import images onto my iPad. But when I switch back to my real Aperture library, iTunes can show the folders and projects but the number of photos in the folders and projects is not showing at all (i.e. 0). The sync process just hangs and does not continue from that point.
    I've also tried another suggestion about repairing permissions, removing the .aplibrary extention and using a new "dummy" library and then switching back to the original library. Nothing seems to work. It just seems buggy and slow i.e. spinning beach ball. Otherwise (beyond syncing to the iPad) Aperture runs fine, exports, e-mails, adjustments all works fine and quickly.
    I have a fast 1TB hard drive WD Caviar Black with 32 MB cache and only 350 Gigs used as the system hard drive. The Aperture library is located on the system disk and the referenced files are on a FW800 external drive.
    Anyone having these same issues? I can't seem to figure it out.
    I guess the only workaround at this point is to just export the photos I want to sync to my iPad into another folder or into iPhoto and import them that way. But it's rather annoying to have a "professional" application which doesn't seem to work as advertised (if Aperture is indeed the culprit).

    Here is what I have found out. iTunes will only sync to the last Aperture 3 library opened, and will only update when you close Aperture 3 and then reopen iTunes. Thats the building shared previews thing I guess.
    I am using iPhoto to sync photos to my iPad and iPhone, not Aperture 3. I export from Aperture 3 as original size JPG then bring in the exported photos into iPhoto. That way I can have multiple Aperture 3 Libraries and not have to worry about iTunes finding the wrong stuff. I know it takes out some of the automagic stuff but at least it works. But remember to close both iPhoto and iTunes before you try to sync, then reopen iTunes. I don't resize any of the photos for the device I let iTunes do that for me.
    Hope this helps

  • Certain events in iPhoto will not sync to my iPad. No Error messages comes up and the photos themselves are ok. its like my ipad doesn't see them. Cause i can get some photos on there just not all.

    certain events in iPhoto will not sync to my iPad. No Error messages comes up and the photos themselves are ok. its like my ipad doesn't see them. Cause i can get some photos on there just not all. Photos are from the same camera and should all be in the same format.

    What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
