Sync photos and music from iPhone to iMac.

When syncing an iPhone 5 (ios7) to an iMac (Mavericks) only the photos in the camera roll sync to iPhoto and not those photos that are in albums. Also, the only music that syncs to the mac is the music purchased from iTunes and not music added from iTunes on another machine.
How do you get all music and photos to sync to the new machine?
Many thanks.

It will automatically do it when you plug it in, weather you have aperture or iphoto. when i plug my iPhone 4 in it will open aperture for example. If it doesn't do it automatically, go ahead and do it manually from device, iPhone section in iTunes. its like a file layout and on the top it will say photo, apps, music. etc. click photos and sync to iPhoto or aperture.

  • I want to buy a new 27in iMac and I want to transfer all my photo and music from my old iMac to the new one.  Is this possible?

    I am going to purchse a new 27in iMac. I have a 21 inch single core intel chip iMac purchased in 2006.  I want to transfer my music from iTunes (3600 songs) and my photos from iPhoto (28000).  Can this be done without using an external hard drive? I backed up all my songs from iTunes but I have yet to understand how they show up on the hard drive. Before you all criticize me, I am a 72 year old lady who is limited in my ability to understand technical data but have been able to use a computer for some time now.

  • Sync Apps and Music from iPhone to new MacBook

    My MacBook Pro has a new hard drive, and I would like to sync my iPhone.  How do I get my music and apps from my iPhone to iTunes?

    Transfer your iTunes library from your computer's backup along with all other important data that should be included with your computer's backup.
    If you don't have a backup, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.

  • Need to get photos and music from iphone to new macbook pro

    I gave my old macbook pro to my daughter and bought a new one. However, i need to find out how to get my music, photos, etc from my iphone onto my new computer. When I try to sync i get the message my iphone contents will be erased and replaced with computer's content. Help!

    Photos can be offloaded to any computer. If a computer does not have iTunes installed, it treats the iPhone as a camera and gives an option to save the photos.
    Anyway, photo's aren't synced are they. They are always stored on the iPhone and never a part of a backup.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How can I transfer my photos and music from my iphone 4 to my new iphone6

    How can I transfer my photos and music from my IPhone 4 to my IPhone 6 ?

    if the music was downloaded via iTunes you will be able to access it from iCloud when you set up the new device. other music that was synced to the iPhone would need to be synced to the new iPhone from the computer that you used to sync the iPhone 4.
    photos can be transferred via the following method.
    plug iPhone 4 into iTunes on computer. select back up to computer.
    Plug in the iPhone 6 and press restore. when setting up the iPhone press restore from iTunes. plug into computer and a complete copy of the iPhone 4 will be put onto the iPhone 6. except for the music...(you will have to download your apps again from App Store but you can find them all under the purchased tab on App Store. you won't have to pay for the apps again)
    please note this will delete the current memory on iPhone 6

  • How to get my photos and music from my iphone to my hp laptop without having windowed on my laptop

    i just got anew hp laptop.  it does not have windows.  I want to be able to link my iphone with my laptop but don't know how.  want to be able to get my photos and music from my phone to my laptop and be able to load music on to my ipod. Is this possible to do

    I think there is still no APP or a way to copy music or videos from Iphone to PC. Pictures can be copied when you access the storage of the iphone from PC. Not sure if you are using other laptop before with itunes where you organize everything about your iphone. If you have, copy the Itunes folder from My Music folder and paste it on the new laptop you have, (you need to install Itunes first on your new laptop before doing this)

  • Retrive my photos and music from ipod

    my windows xp computer completely crashed and all my music especially my photos are on my ipod.now i have an i mac and
    i want to put the photos and music in to the imac how will i do that i tried using a program called keith's photo reader but the photos come up as a big blur and the rest of my photos arent there there are only a couple.
    anyone have any ideas on how to get all of my *photos and music* safely !!!

    Fortunately, you are going from Windows to Mac.  Macs can use the Windows disk format, so your iMac can read data off of your Windows-formatted iPod.  The reverse would not be true, because a Windows PC cannot read data off of a Mac-formatted iPod.
    However, iTunes syncing is generally in one direction only, from the computer's iTunes library to the iPod.  You cannot use iTunes to sync song files from iPod to computer.  But there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer song files from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.  (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
    Once the songs files are on your iMac's drive, you can add them to your new iTunes library.
    NOTE:  Ideally, you should transfer your complete iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer.  If that is possible (you still have access to your old computer with its iTunes library intact), and want to try that (instead of using your iPod as the data source), you can post back.
    Photos are different.  When iTunes syncs photos to the iPod, they are optimized for the iPod's small screen and stored in a single database file (to save storage space in iPod).  Therefore, the images are at lower resolution on the iPod, and there is no way to extract individual photos from the database using software on your iMac.  The only exception is IF you had a setting enabled in iTunes when you synced the photos to the iPod.  That setting is on the iPod's Photos screen in iTunes (where you set up syncing for photos) for Include full resolution photos when syncing.  If that option was checked, you can enable disk use for the iPod and look in the Photos folder using Finder to retrieve the photos. 
    NOTE:  There may be third-party software that can extract individual photos from the iPod's database file.  But they will still be the lower res versions of the original photos.

  • HT4623 How do I copy photo and music from MacBook Pro to Mini Ipad?

    I have a MacBook Pro that has my collection of Photos and Music. I recently bought a Mini Ipad and wanted to copy/transfer some of my Photos and Music from the MacBook to the Mini Ipad. Have tried but cannot perform drag and drop since the Ipad is not showing up in the Finder app.
    Looked into the Lightning to 300 cable (for my Iphone touch or Ipod) but the adapter has a female connector for the 300 and don't know how I can attach my Iphone or Ipod to transfer data with the other end of the cable is USB or AC .
    Thanks

    The iPad won't appear in Finder, you should be able to sync content by connecting it to your computer's iTunes -do you have iTunes installed on your Mac, and your music library in it ? You can add music to iTunes via File > Add To Library
    With iTunes 11 on your Mac you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S. Then select the iPad on that left-hand sidebar and use the Music tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select and sync your music to the iPad's Music app.

    Similary to sync photos use the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes. There is some info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • How do I access photos and music from desktop to laptop

    I have a desktop Mac Pro desktop and will be purchasing a new Macbook Pro for traveling.  I use Final Cut Pro and will need to access IPhoto and  ITunes currently stored on the hard drive of my Mac Pro desktop.  
    One idea I had was loading the music and photo programs on a portable hard drive that I can carry with me.
    1.May I move those programs off my hard drive?  I know some programs ie FCP, will only load on my internal hard drive.
    2. Are there any other ways to access those programs from my desktop?
    Thanks

  • Importing photos and videos from iphone to PC

    So, is there a way to import just certain pictures and videos? I just need one video uploaded to my PC to transfer to a USB for class, and I dont want to import the thousands of photos I have just to get to that one video. Incredibly frustrating! and I noticed the DCIM folder doesn't have the videos in them ever since the ios 7 update, that was one way I could just drag a photo or video on my laptop without importing all my photos. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Hello KristineS79,
    This can be done by disabling Photo syncing in iTunes, then resyncing the phone.
    To delete synced photos and videos from your device
    In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner (or in the left pane if you have the Sidebar enabled). (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
    Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
    Click Apply.
