Sync with iPhoto 11: Events in iTunes not same as in iPhoto 11

I have an event to which I have been merging photos off and on since Sept. 2010.  Up to the last time I synced the iPad, that event displayed as a single event in the iTunes list from which I select the photos that I want to sync between iPhoto and the iPad.  Now, however, that event appears split in iTunes, even though it is still a single event in iPhotos.  Since I have specified to sync all photos, I am now seeing about fifty event with the same name as the single event on the iPad, even though it is a single event in iPhotos.
I have rebuilt my iPhoto library, but that does not seem to help.
Has anybody experienced this problem and solved it?  If not, does anybody have suggestions?
Richard

@Gregory,
Yes, I have restored iPhoto 9.1.1 from Time Machine.  I also ended up restoring the last version of iPhoto Library on which iPhoto 9.1.1 was used.  It's important that you don't use the older version of iPhoto in conjunction with a version of iPhoto Library that has been touched by iPhoto 9.1.2.  Of course, you will then have to redo any work that you did in iPhoto 9.1.2.  And when you next sync an iOS device, iTunes will notice that you are syncing with a different library and ask permission to delete the photos on the device and replace them by the photos you have selected.  That, in turn, will involve optimizing the photos for the device.  11,000 photos will take a long time, but not as long as my 18,000+ photos.
By the way, restoring an iPhoto Library of 18,000+ photos creates problems of its own.  The library is approx. 154 GB large, and I didn't have enough room on my hard disk for the then-current version and the version to be restored, so I had to delete the former and empty the Trash in order to create enough space.
Regards,
Richard

  • My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data

    My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data
    Can anyone help me

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod 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 iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    All media content will be erased during the first sync, 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 ipod 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

  • When I watch tv shows in Front Row that I've bought off iTunes the audio gradually falls out of sync with the video. It does not happen with other files that I have converted into mp4s. Any ideas for fixing this? It's a huge bummer...

    I too have the same problem.  The audio drop out of sync in about 5 sec in not uncommon for the audio to be 30+ sec behind video.  Apple needs to fix this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   its a joke,  my iphone is all messed up after the last update as well.  at one time not to long ago apple products and software were top rated, not so much any more, more and more problems are showing up and apple is unwilling or unalbe to fix the many issues.  Apple needs to fix the audio sync problem, it not the computer hardware or other software it ITUNES!!!!,  there is no workaround other then hitting pause and hitting pause and hitting pause to temp fix the problem.

  • Iphone says it is already synced with another library, but it's not

    My iphone says it is already synced with another library, but it's not.

    I have the exact situation and it is frustrating me. All I want is my original iTunes Library back!
    I have not synced to another computer what so ever. Does anyone know how to set my iTunes library to my original? I don't want to erase everything and start from new.
    Please let me know!

  • Itunes synced with another computer after updating iTunes

    iphone 4.
    ios6
    8Gb
    I was previously running ios5 onthe above phone but downloaded the new version of itunes (accidently - if it's not broke dont fix it) when I connected my new iPod shuffle.
    Since then I have been unable to add or remove music from my phone with the required button to do so missing. In an effort to resolve I installed ios6 (groan - why?) but still have the same problem.
    The message I get when I select the tick box to manually manage music is that this library is already synced with another computer. It's NOT! I've just updated the software apple provide to make my user experience that much more pleasant - Oh the irony.
    Any takers to help out please?

    Hi there,
    Thanks for that, explains a little. I have changed my operating system to Windows 8 and I am now accessing my library from my back up drive when it was previously accessed on my main drive.
    I imagine itunes is seeing another hard drive as in your reply above. If this is the case how can it be resolved? copy my entire library into the itunes music folde as is the default setting?

  • ICal mysteriously no longer syncs with my iPhone 3gs via iTunes sync

    My iCal mysteriously no longer syncs with my iPhone 3gs via iTunes sync. It worked great until about a month ago. I've made over 300 Calendar changes to my iPhone 3gs' Calendar, but not a single item has synced back to my iCal on my iMac, when I sync my iTunes (which I do almost daily). In addition, I've created some items on my iCal, as a test, and none of them sync onto my iPhone 3gs.
    What gives? Ideas? Suggestions?
    Thanks for your help!

    Well, I was able to manually sync my iPhone to my iCal one time, but haven't been able to get it to sync Calendar info since then. It was moderately successful, so I could export an iCal backup file. However, I ended up with about 200 MORE duplicate items on my iPhone, and what's weird is that many of these duplicates do NOT have any "edit" functionality! So I a, stuck with them being on the day they are at right now. Grrrrrr

  • If I update my iPhone to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded?

    If I update my iPhone4s to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded to that iOS?

    As there is no way to sync an iPad to an iPhone, your question is a bit confusing. You can sync both devices to iTunes or iCloud. That doesn't change.

  • HT4113 My Ipad has never been synced with a computer or via itunes on a computer only set up by my apple id, when it asked to connect to itunes i turned it off, when turning it on again it asked me for a passcode. I never set up a pascode, now I am locked

    I have just bought a new IPAD. It has never been synced with a computer or via itunes on a computer, I tried to set it up using my APPLE ID and mobile number, it prompted me to connect to ITUNES. Unsure of what to do next, I closed it and took it to work. When I opened it one hour later it prompted me for the passcode. I never set up a passcode. I tried various combinations (my husband iphone, birthdates, kids passcodes etc) to see if somehow it had linked itself to their passcode. I called the shop I bought it from and was advised it would cost me 70 dollars to have it reset. I feel completely devastated that I haven't even been able to use the IPAD and I am already stuck. Can anyone offer some solid advice?

    Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

    MobileMe used SyncServices, part of the System, to sync contacts. iCloud uses a different protocol and evidently Quickbooks can't work with this.

  • HT1386 I want to give me old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music.

    I want to give my old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone 3 onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music. How can I do this?

    To effectively transfer ownership of the iPhone requires that it be "restored" as a new device.
    ...  The PC she synced with is dead
    The iPhone is not a backup device. Your computer backs up the iPhone, not the other way around. What you use to back up your computer is up to you - Macs use Time Machine. I assume PCs use something similar.
    If her PC backup is dead you will have difficulty extracting content from the iPhone since it is not designed to work that way.
    All her Apple purchases can easily be transferred to another iPhone. However, her contacts will be gone, as will any music or other contact obtained from sources other than Apple.
    There are a number of third party utilities that claim to be able to extract content from an iPhone. See wjosten's procedure here:
