Sync iPhoto with SkyDrive or some cloud service

How keep sync iPhoto library with SkyDrive (first option) or some good cloud service?

Couple of points you need to clear up:
I have some doubts that SkyDrive is based on disks formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - and that's what you need for iPhoto. Some folks have used DropBox but they report speed issues. Crashplan has had variable results.
Consider the situation in which you require to restore your Library. An iPhoto library can grow to hundreds of gigabytes over a couple of years. If you go to restore that can take days to download. We do see posts on this issue on the forum from time to time. In a nutshell large amounts of data take a very long time to upload and download.
FWIW my back up procedure uses a mix of Online and local storage.
My Library lives on my iMac. It’s Backed up to two external hard disks every day. These disks are permanently attached to the iMac. These back ups run automatically. One is done by Time Machine, one is a bootable back up done by SuperDuper
It’s also backed up to a portable hard disk when ever new photos are added. This hard disk lives in my car. For security, this disk is password protected.
I have a second off-site back up at a relative’s house across town. That’s updated every 3 or 4 months.
My Photos are backed up online. There are many options: Flickr, Picasa, SmugMug etc. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you may need to pay.
Every couple of months I test the back ups to make sure they are working correctly. It’s very easy to mis-configure a back up application, and the only way to protect against that is to do a trial restore.

Sony X85C - Bravia Sync Issue with Samsung Homecinema and WD Live Box

Hello I purchased the 2015 4k Sony TV X85c line, its the 55" with Model Nr: KD55X8507C (silver bezel). The latest Android TV version from mid July is installed and the TV is working fine - except for the interaction with my 2 other components:- a Western Digital Live streaming player box- a Samsung Homecinema HT-D6750W I knew i could run into problems when mixing up brands, but the issue now is really bugging me: The Samsung homecinema is connected via the HDMI 4 ARC to the Sony TV. The Westen Digital is connected to the homecinema. All devices are HDMI CEC compatible, thus on the Sony I can see the other devices and even control them with the Sony remote - which "concept wise" is really neat, but something is failing. It seems that the Sony trys constantly to switch between audio system (Samsung) and its own TV speakers when choosing how to deliver the sound. This somehow interfers with the menu dialogs of the Sony. As soon as I connect the Samsung Homecinema and go into the display menu to change image settings / modes it the menu will crash after some seconds (it just fades away). This does not happen when the homecinema is not connected, but then of course im missing the sound of my homecinema. So there seems to be a certain interference and I assume it could be because of the constant audio switching between TV and audio system. I already tried to deactivate all HDMI-CEC features on the devices, but for the Sony TV's bravia sync its impossible to deactivate fully (the menu is just greyed and "on"). I'm getting some new and state of the art HDMI cables later this day, maybe this will bring a positive effect. Anyone experiences something similiar with the X85C range of products? Is there a way to handle it? ThanksAndre / xenom0rph

I "solved" the problem: Bravia Sync does not seem to be compatible with HDMI CEC / Anynet of the Samsung homecinema. I deactivated all HDMI CEC features on the samsung player and the WD TV Live box, and then the deactivation of bravia sync was possible on the TV. After that the issue with the menu crashes was gone. Now i try to get digital audio with optical to the samsung player. So i connected optical out from the Sony TV to the optical in of the player. There are different settings to be made in the sonys audio menu now which I'm still not sure what to do. It has different compression modes for the audio (auto 1, auto 2, pcm). PCM seems to work for most digital audio content, but i fear DTS is not supported by the Sony. I tried the XBMC Kodi Android App on the Sony TV and got digital audio on some movies, but not all of em....not sure if its an app or TV problem. Oh well..for the moment i stay with the WD live streaming box which supports all audio formats and is connected via HDMI to the player, but its just a very slow cpu in there, so it would be cool to use the more powerful TV as streaming player.

Syncing iphoto with iPhone 4s - photos suddenly rearranged!!!!

My iPhoto ALBUMS key pictures are being rearranged when I sync with my iphone 4s... This only began occurring after I updated to IOS 6 last week...
In iPhoto ALBUMS, the key photo is the first photo in each album... When I sync my iphone 4s with my Mac Air, the ALBUM key photo becomes the last photo in the ALBUMS... Is there any way to fix this???

In iPhoto try manually selecting each photo and Import.

Sync iPhoto with Itunes and Iphone

I've just purchased a new MacBook Pro and moved my iphoto library over to my new laptop. When I sync my OS 3 iphone with my MacBook Pro everything syncs except for iPhoto. I get the following message: "Itunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone "myphone" because your iPhoto Library could not be found. Open iPhoto to create or update your iPhoto Library."
When I open iPhoto all my pictures are there. My iPhoto Library is in my Picture folder. Am I missing something? One thing I've noticed is I don't seem to have my iPhoto files all together in one Folder. Is this the problem.

An Administrator did not tell you to post here. Another user did. Post again in the iPhone forums this time here:

confine your post to the issue with the iPhone and syncing with applications. Forget about issue with Skype.

When you can't sync iphoto with your iphone

When itunes gives you an error while trying to sync your pix from iphoto just go into the iphoto library and delate the folder named "iPod Photo Cache".
When you rename an album in iphoto, since the cache file doesnt change, you end up having a mismatch which messes up itunes' mind, therefore just delate that folder (it will automatically recreate with new titles once you sync your iphone again) and everything is going to be alright!

Okay, I solved my problem. Not obvious or easy, but here's what I did. (I'm cutting and pasting the instructions I found that I followed, along with additional clarification from me below):
I went to my iPhoto library in the Finder. There's a file named AlbumData.xml. If you double click it, it should open in Safari. When I opened mine, at the top it said that it was displaying everything up to line so-and-so where there was an error. Good! Now I'm on to something. Next, I used the Find function in Safari to search for "AlbumName". The last "AlbumName" it found was just before the end of the file, so I went back to the next to last "AlbumName" and made note of the album name immediately after it. Then, I opened iPhoto, found the corresponding album in iPhoto to the next to last album name in the AlbumData.xml. Then I changed the name of the album immediately after it (which should have been the last album name in the AlbumData.xml file, but was not displayed because there was an error). Closed iPhoto, opened iTunes, everything works!
Additional clarification: You'll note that when you open the xml file in Safari (drag and drop - and I had two files, oddly, I used the one without a number 2) it says at the top "BELOW IS A RENDERING OF THE PAGE UP TO THE FIRST ERROR". Scanning into the final lines I noticed that a slideshow was what the instructions seemed to be about - a "12 months" sort of deal. I deleted that slideshow from my iPhoto, and voila, all restored when I synced my iPhone with iTunes.
The point is, whatever is at the end of the safari presentation of the xml file is what you should focus on....

Syncing iPhoto with Chrono Sync

Hi there,
I current have a MacBook Pro at home and an iMac 24" at work. To ensure that I have the same mailboxes on both machines (that's the local mailboxes not the ones on the server) I use Chrono Sync on each machine and an external hard drive to make sure that what I have in the office is the same as at home.
Now, my question is, can I do the same thing with the iPhoto gallery? This way I have the same photos on both machines?
It may be a simple yes or no answer, but any issues you may think of would be good

Sometmes the terminology here is confusing. So bear with me.
I wanted to Sync it completely, so that Libraries A and B are identical.
That means, if you add pics to Library A and add different pics to Library B that - after a sync - Library A and Library B will both include all the pics.
+You can't do this with Chronosync+ Period. Or any Syncing app. Period.
So far, I have done the first 'sync' by doing a bi-directional sync from Library A (my MacBook Library) to a folder on the external hard drive called 'iPhoto'.
That's not "bi directional". The traffic is only one way. Nor is it syncing. You simply copied your Library to this new location.
When I launched iPhoto again on the MacBook, whilst holding down alt, I selected the new folder on the external hard drive and it opened up the library without a problem.
Of course. You've simply moved your library from one Mac to an external HD, then you've plugged the HD into another Mac and opened the Library. So far you've not tried to move photos +from Library to Library+.
but have realised that my work Mac is iLife'08 where the MacBook is iLife'09 ('09 must have come with the newer MacBook). So that means I can't open them on my work Mac anyway until I upgrade.
Correct. No early version of iPhoto can open a later version's Library.
do you not think that if I did a Sync from the iPhoto folder on the external drive with the iPhoto library on my work Mac that it would sync the files across?
I really don't understand the sentence. Exactly what do you mean by "Sync from the iPhoto folder on the external drive with the iPhoto library on my work Mac"
Clarify the word "Sync".
Yes you can copy the Library on the External to your work Mac. It will overwrite the Library already on your work Mac. Photos currently on your Work Mac that are not in the Library on the HD will be erased.

"re-syncing" iphoto with mobileme gallery

Some friends of ours recently uploaded pictures to our mobile me gallery. How do I bring those new photos into an already established iphoto event?

When I select an event and publish it to MobileMe, the MobileMe gallery does not seem to stay linked to my original event. If I add photos to the event they do not sync up to the gallery, and if a user contributes photos it does not go back to my event
We may have a terminology problems here - events do not connect in any way to MobileMe and you can not directly add photos to events - importing photos into iPhoto will create a new event - it is not possible to import photos into an existing event
When you create a MobileMe gallery it appears as a web gallery in the source pane to the left and anything you add to that gallery in iPhoto will be synced to MobileMe based on how you have your syncing preferences set
I do not have any uploaded photos so have not used that feature but I believe that you just look in the web gallery in the source pane of iPhoto and drag the photos you want to the iPhoto library window or select them and create a new event form selection

Cannot Sync iphoto with my apple tv

Under the photo tab I checked the box to sync photos from iPhoto but none of the albums appear in the box, and I cannot select the option for "selected albums. I took all the movie clips out of my iPhoto library and rebuilt the library but still no luck.

Are you able to see your iphoto library from other iapps (ie imovie or iDVD)
Are your permissions set correctly for your iphoto library
Where is your iphoto library.

Can I sync iphoto with icloud?

This must be a very common question but I don't want to use google to store photos. I would like to have them synced everywhere - from my iphoto library on my mac to iCloud, from my iod device to both icloud and iphoto on my mac.....
Is this possible and is there a way of removing duplicate photos??
I'd be very grateful for any advice.
Thank you.
Simon (from the UK)

Hello Simon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The option to store your photos in iCloud is called iCloud Photo Library, currently in beta. If you'd like to learn more about iCloud Photo Library beta, please take a look at the information in the link below.

Syncing iPhoto Albums With My Video iPod

Using OS X.3.9 and iPhoto 6.x:
When I sync iPhoto with my new iPod (video), will I be able to browse the photos on the iPod by the same Album names used in iPhoto? Will the iPod list my Albums?
For example, can I present a slideshow of a certain Album on my iPod, then a totally different Album on the same iPod, etc.?
Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Connect your iPod and wait for it to be recognized in iTunes.
Click iTunes > Preferences
Click the iPod button
Click the photo tab beneath it
You can select to sync your photos from iPhoto
I believe you can also tell it to sync only selected albums, which will enable you to see your photos according to these albums when you browse them on your iPod.
Hope this is helpful
