Syncing iPhoto Albums (not Events) onto iPhone from iPhoto.

Hi There,
I wonder if you can help me with something. I have started to put iPhoto Albums onto my iPhone. If I sync an Event, it all works fine and I end up with the camera roll and the new Event I just synced onto iPhone.
The problem I have is when I do this with an Album, rather than an Event. I tried this last night and for some really strange reason, when I sync only the new Photo Album to my iPhone, when the sync is finished and I look at the photos section on the iPhone, I end up with my camera roll (as it should), the new Album I have synced (as it should) but then I also get a mirrored Album which is named "Photo Album"
Any idea why it's duplicating the Album I am syncing and naming it Photo Album? It's useless to me having 2 of the same Albums on my iPhone, one being the one I synced and the other being a duplicaton with a different name.
Any ideas at all on this? It could just be a bug that needs fixing, as I said above, it doesn't happen when I sync an Event, only happens when I sync an Album I have created in iPhoto.
Thanks very much for reading this and I look forward to a reply.
Thanks,
Adam

Hi,
I'll try again: Sorry.
When I sync an Event, all seem fine and all i end up with is the Event on my iPhone. (this all seems 100 % correct to me)
When I sync an Album, I end up with another Album on my iphone called "Photo Album" that has the same photo's within it. (Now this I understand as it's the same as iphoto, you get a MASTER FOLDER and then you can create from that)
What my question is:
Why when I sync an Event, I only get the Event and not the second new folder called "photo Album" showing me all the pics from the Event.
Should it not work like the below?:
If I had say 1 Album and 1 Event tranferred to my phone, surely I should be able to see a "photo Album" showing all the pics from BOTH THE ALBUM AND THE EVENT that I have trtansferred (LIKE A MASTER FOLDER)
I hope that makes sense now?

Getting photos back onto iPhone from iPhoto to transfer to another Mac

Hi,
I've transferred some recent photos and videos from my iPhone to iPhoto. However, my wife needs them too on her Mac - and there's loads.
Is there a way where I can get them back onto my iPhone so that iPhoto will pick them up on her Mac? Just using iTunes to sync them doesn't show up any another Mac.
Thx,
Mont

s there a way where I can get them back onto my iPhone so that iPhoto will pick them up on her Mac?
No, unless they are still in your camera roll. If not, you will have to use a thumb drive or some other means to transfer them to your wife's computer.

IPhoto will not import video clips from iPhoto

I plugged in my iPhone to my computer. I opened iPhoto to import the photos from my camera role. It imported the photos just fine up said "The following files could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format." It is all the video files I took with my iPhone. Never had this problem before. I recently switched macs from my desktop to a new iMac. I was having problems with iphoto not liking the video I previously had in iPhoto.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few videos into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

How do I save albums, events in tact from iPhoto to external drive to comply with iCloud limits? Thx

How do I save albums, events in tact from iPhoto to external drive to comply with iClouds limits? (iMac Lion, need to remove 280gb of photos>

Not sure if I understand correctly?
Do you want to move 280 GB of photos from iPhoto on your Mac to an external hard drive?
If that is the case, iCloud has nothing to do with it. You can move your iPhoto library to an external drive to free up space on your internal drive.

If that is not what you're trying to do, please rephrase your question. Thanks.

ITunes will not sync all album artwork to my iPhone

Ever since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5, some of my album artwork will not sync to my iPhone even though it's on my iMac. Songs that I have gotten from places other than iTunes, such as CDs, sync their album artwork to my iPhone without a problem. Songs that I have purchased from iTunes after updating my iPhone sync their album artwork as well. The only songs that will not sync their artwork to my iPhone are the songs that I've purchased from iTunes before updating to iOS 5. Any suggestions?

You have to turn your iPhone on otherwise it wont work.
I Hope I Was Able To Help You Or Solve Your Question.

IPhoto albums order display on iPhone

Using iPhoto 9.5.1 on new Macbook Air with OS UTD, and iPhone 6 using iOS 8
I know how to sort Events album orders in iPhoto View>Sort Events>by date & descending
but in my iPhone, they are all in random order.
I have synced multiple times.
How do I get them to display on my iPhone like they do in iPhoto (i.e. chronologically descending)?
Also, why is my selected Key Photo for each album lost when the albums are on the iPhone?

iPhoto for iOS is no longer supported nor works in iOS 8 and has been dropped from further development by Apple. Go to the iPhoto for iOS forum and look for how to migrate photos from iPhoto to the Photos app on the iPhone.
It's a whole new ballgame now. Here's some info on how the Photos apps now works.
Your photos are still on your phone. With iOS 8 there is no My Photo Stream or Camera Roll any more. The MPS has been replaced with the Recent Activity album.
The CR is replaced by the Collections mode. The closest we can get to the Camera Roll is to turn off the Summarize Photos feature in the Settings/Photos & Camera pane and view the photos in the Collections/Moments window.
The photos will be in chronological order when scrolled up from the bottom of the window.
The Recent Activity album is showing the photos added in the last 30 days going back to 8/20 (today being 9/18). In iPhoto on a Mac the My Photo Stream is showing more like 31 days, 8/19 to today, 8/20. It must be how the two devices calculate the last 30 days.
WARNING: If you use iTunes to sync photos between your iPhone or iPad and your Mac do not activate the iCloud Drive. Doing so will kill the capability of using iTunes to sync with your mobile device and disable Documents & Data syncing for your iCloud account on OS X Mavericks and earlier Macs, as well as iOS 7 and earlier devices.

Transfer Video to iphone from iphoto

what is the easiest way to get video clips onto the iphone from iphoto? keeps on saying cannot play video on iphone. tried putting in itunes and that didnt work either. video is from a flipvideo, goes automatically into iphoto, can easily put into imovie or itunes if that helps, any other suggestions would be great. iphone is a 3GS

It needs to be converted to a format that's playable on the iphone. These are the only supported formats:
Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats.
Once converted, add it to your itunes library & from there you can sync to your phone. Handbrake can do the conversion for you automatically & has presets for the iphone:

HT5129 using apeture and moving photos selected or event to apeture from iphoto

how do I move an event to apeture from iphoto? They will not stay open together for me to drag? or slideshow or a photo, anything that may help?

If you're using iPhoto 11 and Aperture 3 there's no need to move anything. Just open the Library with your preferred app.

See if you can export those same photos to a folder on your Desktop.

My iphoto will not recognize my iPhone 5c

My iphoto will not recognize my iPhone 5c, therefore I can't import any of my pictures.
I read that it could be the cable do I went out and bought another but it is still not working?
Neither itunes nor iphoto open when I plug in my phone, however when I open up itunes manually, it recognizes it. Any suggestions?

Launch iTunes, then connect your iPhone to USB. The iPhone will prompt you, if you trust this computer. Confirm that you trust it.
Then try again to import to Photos.
If "trust" was not the reason, try a different USB port on your computer.

Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

There have been many issues reported with Kodak cameras - serach the forums for them
Actually the best practise is to use a card reader to import your photos, verify that they are imported ocrrectly and wait at least one backup cycle and then use the camera's format command to reformat the card and erase it - this assures no lost photos and always having the card properly formatted

FaceTime over cellular is dependent on your service provider. It should work over wifi, unless of course your ISP is blocking it.
