Some of my pictures will not sync from iPhoto

I have an original iPad and an iMac (Early 2009) running Lion.  All of my pictures won't sync from iPhoto to the iPad.  I used to get an error message when I was running Leopard, before upgrading to IOS 5 on the iPad.  I no longer get the error message, but some events just won't transfer.  I seem to remember something about optimizing pictures??
Does anyone have any ideas?
Ralph

Thanks!  I thought I had done that, but I was deleteing the wrong cache.  It was important that I deleted the cache in the iPhoto directory, which I couldn't figure out how to access.  I needed to use the "Show Package Contents" option on the dropdown menu of the "iPhoto Library" folder.
All is fixed and I have all my pictures on my iPad.

  • Some photos will not sync from iPhoto to iPad

    I could REALLY use some help. For starters, here is what I am working with:
    iPad3, 64 Gigs, 32 gigs free, up to date iOS
    Mac Pro with OSX 10.8.3 and iPhoto 9.4.2
    The main problem is that some photos can not be synced to my iPad. I have done this for years using iTunes. When I am in iTunes, I can see the albums where the photos are supposed to be. But often, the number of photos in the folder is listed as zero. Other times, the number is less than the number that is actually in the folder on my Mac. Syncing or Applying does not find and move the seemingly invisible pictures.The photos on my Mac are in JPEG format, and can be seen and emailed and edited, etc. on my Mac. I just cant get my iPad to see them and sync them. To say the least, this is problematic, I use my iPad show my craftwork photos to clients, and I can't get some newer photos put on the beautiful handheld iPad.More (potential) pieces of the puzzle:
    the issues seem more frequent with new photos. Old albums seem stable and transferable
    I have done some things like clearing ALL photos off my iPad, restarting it, then moving the albums back on to the iPad using iTunes. Didn't help
    iPhoto on my Mac does sometimes exhibit some crankiness. It tends to crash if I choose Info on any photo. Sometimes it loses photos I have imported. Sometimes it duplicates some photos in a folder.
    I have tried restarting my Mac, have done disk diagnostics, have zapped PRAM, repaired permissions.... all sorts of things like that
    A few weeks ago, I backed up my iPhoto library to another drive, then run a couple of the options in the Rebuild iPhoto Library menu. None of that helped.
    I think there may have been a few other anomolies in the last few months, but the ones above are the things I can remember
    Any help would be super kind of you. I am a Mac user since the very original 128k 1984 Mac. And I have figured out a lot of minor problems in all those years. This one seems so mysterious and intractable. And is really putting a kink in my use of the iPad.
    Thanks in advance, Peter

    didn't try the reboot but when I took my first picture wit the iphone camera then all photos showed up in 'photos' album along with 'camera roll'

  • Some new purchased songs will not sync to IPhone.  Any ideas on resolving this?

    Some newly purchased songs will not sync to Iphone.  Any ideas to resolve this issue?

    Similar issue:
    I purchased several complete albums from the iTunes store on my laptop. Everything syncs fine with my iPhone except for two tracks from two seperate albums. I get the same error for both tracks: "iTunes could not copy ..... to the iPhone because the file could not be converted."
    From what I can tell both tracks are the same format as the other tracks on those albums - m4a (purchased AAC audio file) and wouldn't need converting (except that I have "convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC" checked... but the other tracks convert just fine). Files play just fine on the laptop.
    I checked that everything was purchased with the same user accounts. Not sure what to try next... any ideas?
    In case it of any use here are the tracks:
    Being Single Again (track 2 from Louis C.K.'s album Hilarious)
    Letters to Magazines (track 15 from Paul F. Tompkins' album Impersonal)
    Maybe the tracks are just so funny that the iPhone is cracking up too much to transfer them over.

  • After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version"

    After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version".  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry,
    Yes, the error message is exactly like that  ("Database error: failured to persist version")
    No photos will import at all.  I use USB to import from iPhone 5s or iPad 2. 
    About the difference?  iPhoto and Photos .  Are there two softwares?
    I also will like to merge and/or synchronize all my photos I had saved to iCloud backups, Macbook Pro,  iPhone 5s and iPad hard drives using iPhoto.  It's call iPhoto library.  At one point I turned off streaming. 
    Thanks again Larry HN.

  • Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

    Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.
    It may be my own fault due to learning Aperture and playing around with the locations of the Master Files.
    The thing I don't understand is that when in iPhoto all thumbnails of all photo's are able to be enlarged / edited etc. When a thumbnail is clicked on there is no gray triangle with an exclamation mark indicating that the link to the original photo can't be found. I would have thought this was ok for syncing to take place.
    When trying to sync through iTunes to my iPad for example (after some photo's have been synced) a window comes up saying "Some of your photos, including the photo “_MG_3820.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “Mark Harlen’s iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad".
    I thought this may be due to lack of memory space but my Apple TV (which has the same issue but not the same warning window) has over over 100 free GB's so that can't be it.
    When I did a test and re imported one photo that wasn't being synced to my other devices, that photo consequently was then synced so maybe it has something to do with the path through iPhoto to the original files.
    Is there any way I can re establish these links with out having to create an entire new iPhoto library from the originals (I have a lot of albums and have done a lot of editing etc and don't and want to have to do it all again).
    I look forward to you help and advice
    Mark

    Thanks for the advice but it didn't seem to work
    I've decided to try ditching iPhoto and orgainising, syncing my photo's to all devices from Aperture
    I have so far imported over 1200 photo's (relocating and renaming the master files as well) and find that when syncing through iTunes only 209 photo's are listed. The Projects/Albums are there but some indicate that there are 0 photo's in them when I know other wise (at least according to whats happing in Aperture)
    I'm starting to suspect it may be a computer problem
    Any thoughts?
    Regards
    Mark
    PS: Just after posting this I restarted my computer, went into iTunes and my Apple TV started to sync. It was now syncing 854 photo's not 209 as before.

  • Iphone 4 will not sync with iphoto

    Iphone four will not sync with iphoto, error message appears. any suggestions?

    Currently downloading upgrades from the "Software Updates" so hopefully that will help,
    Which updates are these?  For iPhoto or for you phone's operating system?
    If you plan on upgrading iPhoto it will require a purchase of the iLife 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com
    or
    upgrading your MBP to Mavericks and downloading the latest version, 9.5, from the App Store for free.

  • Mp3 will not sync from iTunes desktop to iphone

    Hi All,
    I have some mp3 files (voice recordings purchased from Darren Hardy) that I imported into my iTunes Library just fine on my Mac OSX desktop.
    However, those files simply will not sync up with my iPhone like the other 1900-odd songs in my library do just fine.
    I'm not a total dope, but this one's got me baffled.  I've tried reboots, resyncs, changing the files from music to audiobooks, nothing obvious seems to work.
    And BTW, there's no indication in the Get Info box that there is any DRM on them.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Chris.

  • Calendar will not sync from iphone to ical since 10.5.2 update

    My iphone has worked perfectly since I bought it last summer & I have been raving about it!
    I updated to 10.5.2 and now I am having a syncing problem.
    If I put an appointment in the iphone it will not sync to ical, but it does sync from ical to the iphone.
    This is all new since 10.5.2.
    Are there some simple steps to follow to resolve this issue?

    1. got the back up done. After I answer your couple of quesitons, i will do the reset.
    2. I am responding to you using my .mac account, which, as you know, is IMAP.
    3. In addition, I do have a POP ( Yahoo) account that I use a great deal. I use the Mac Mail application to grab the Yahoo e mails for me, as I thought that would be the easiest set up. ( Just launch Mail and every e mail is available for viewing). I suspect you are going to advise me to take the steps to turn my POP Yahoo into an IMAP Yahoo???.
    4. So I think I may have answered you question about accessing this account with an email client, right? I am using Mail.
    5. Thanks for the thought on the incoming e mail server. Good to know.
    6. My Mac account settings for removing messages from the server when downloaded by the email client ( Mail?) are: (1) for the Yahoo - I looked under Accounts/Advanced. And, if that is the right place, hopefully, I have set it to remove copy from server after retrieving a message after 1 month. ( just being careful). (2) I do not see choices for my .mac IMAP account, except under Trash, and for that I have also chosen 1 month before permanently removing.
    How'd I do?? I want to answer your questions as specifically and succinctly as possible. Your assistance is much appreciated.

  • Movie The Words will not sync from iTunes 11.0.1 to Apple TV gen1

    Hello,
    I have followed the threads on the subject and got an SD copy of The Words (which I purchased in HD).
    Originally, there were two other problems.
    1) the download was being corrupted at the end, not finishing properly (HD). Although it would play in iTunes on the mac, a check of the Info showed several fields simply missing, such as AppleID. It did sync to Apple TV gen1 but then told us 'not authorized' when trying to play it. I finally got a good copy after clearing the Downloads folder and re-downloading several times.
    2) AppleIDs from iTunes and iCloud did not match, so I was at first unable to get the show iCloud in iTunes option on the Store preferences, with no warning. I fixed that too and got an SD copy of The Words into iTunes.
    I removed the original movie file from the Apple TV. it was gone from the movie list.
    However, I now have an SD copy of the movie in my iTunes, but it WILL NOT sync to the AppleTV. When i select it for sync, and apply, Sync runs very briefly, indicating no problems, but nothing gets done. The movie does not appear in the Apple TV menu, and it is clearly not being transferred over.
    Anyone got any suggestions?
    thanks

    Morning athos441,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The black unit is the 2nd or 3rd gen Apple TV.
    The 1st gen Apple TV (silver) is the one that you can move things over to the internal HD on the Apple TV.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:

    Hi CCam51,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand you purchased a new iPod and want to sync your music from your Windows computer to it. It sounds like the sync settings may not be correct if your music is not syncing over. Please use the following article as a reference to help you get your music synced to the iPod.

  • On iCloud, the calendar will sync from computer and iPhone to everything, but will not sync FROM iPad

    When I enter data on my computer or iPhone, the calendars all sync nicely; however, if I enter an event on my iPad, it will not sync, eventhough it syncs the information from the other devices.  Any advice?

    Once you set your Exchange Calendar as the default here:
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > scroll down to Default Calendar > Select your Exchange calendar
    All new events should be created in your Exchange calendar unless manually changed.

  • When syncing iTunes with Apple TV (1st gen) some songs and movies will not sync..

    I get the message that these songs and movies are not authorized to play on this computer. The computer is authorized and the songs and movies will play on the computer but will not sync to Apple TV
    Any advice is aproeciated.

    Thanks for the reply WC
    Yes they do.
    They origialnally played just fine. I moved my entire iTunes library to a new computer and now only 62 songs, out of over 2000, and two of four movies won't sync. All songs and movies are in same folders and same format.
    I already selected "keep iTunes media folder organized" and "copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library"
    using iTunes 10.7 and OSX 10.8.2
