Syncing - loss of photos and movies / ipad only shows movies under 'events'

Two issues
1 - I have recently upgraded ipad to 5.1. Syncing with pc on windows 7. Sync has omitted 65 photos and 60 movies, with no apparent logic e.g. 50 photos have been omitted from the middle of a folder on pc with 1010 photos. The other 15 are random omissions over several folders, where the other photos in the folders have been taken with the same camera on the same day as others that have successfully synced to the ipad. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know the solution? I can sync again and see what happens, but I would rather understand why the photos have been omitted.
2 - Also, none of the movies show in 'photos' or 'albums' on the ipad, although they do show under 'events' (nnnIMPRT), and play in a 'slideshow' of 'events'. I am unclear on what defines an 'event' in Apple's ipad world, but it is not a good basis for a slideshow. Does anyone else have this problem with movies not showing in 'photos' or 'albums'? Or does anyone understand what the purpose of the 'event' option is?

since both last 12 months and events or photos are simply different views of the same photos in your library they are there - the most common issue is incorrect dates so you are looking in the wrong event - you can find the event by selecting the photo in the last 12 months view and and right clicking and using the show event command - you can correct the dates by selecting the photo and using the photos menu ==> adjust time/date command

  • Movies only show up under Songs LIst

    On my iPod Classic 80GB, movies (purchased and manually added) only show up under the songs list. I cannot change the info (movie, tv show) in iTunes because that is not an option for files in the songs list. I have been able to re-add a couple of the manually added movies and they show up in the right place, but the purchased movies I cannot do this with. This only became a problem today and has not been a problem in the past. They show up under the songs list only and not in the movies even though the info shows them as mp4. Any help is appreciated.

    I would say that is a good indication that the movies are not actually synced. Check your sync settings in iTunes and also make sure that there is actually enough disk space available on the ATV for the movies that have yet to sync.

    Please see the bold.  If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
    If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.

    Is it possible to sync two different iphones and an ipad on only one computer??
    My husband has an iphone 4 & ipad. I have an iphone 4S. We both use the same  itunes account. We are having trouble w/ all of our contacts/calendars & info getting all mixed up. We want to both use the same itunes account & apple id so that we dont have to separatley repurchase everything. Can anyone help us w/ this issue? Are we obligated to buy another computer so that we each have one--or is there some way around it? Thanks!!

  • How do I sync my iCloud photos and music to my iPad?

    How do I sync my iCloud photos and music to my iPad?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Bendy One.
    For photos, settings > iCloud > photos > on.
    For music, you can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

  • I bought a movie long ago, and it will only show up on my ipod, not my computer.

    This movie doesn't show up under movies or tv shows on my itunes software. Also, I can't even play the movie on my ipod because there is an "error" whenever I try to click on it. Please Help!

    Try transfering the move to your computer:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    If it transfers, see if it plays on the computer.
    Try resetting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - If it still does not play try contacting iTunes:

  • I receive daily emails from the NY Times, which I read from my Ipad. Some of the emails will show all of the stories available, and some will only show a few lines in the body and the rest of the email is blank. Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

    I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".  Could you please help?

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

    Which magnifier tool are you referring to? If you double-tap with 3 fingers it should disable zoom. Then you can go into Setttings>Accessibility>Zoom and turn it off.

  • HT1657 I live in switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language. Is there a way to change the language to the original language when renting?

    I live in Switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language...is there a way to change the language of the movie I rent from Itunes back to original language?

    Hi Zanaro,
    It is an Apple isuue same as when you want to buy or download from the iTunes store.
    I bought and registered (also credit card from Australia) mi iPhone 4s
    Now when I came to Switzerland I should have NOT used my Australian details but registered everything here in Switzerland with Swiss credit card and probably a swiss email account.
    My problem is opposite to yours, I can only download movies in English!!!!
    What Apple could have done at least is give an option on undertittles so at least some movies are understud. It is no problem for myself but when I have friends over that do not understand the language we have problems.
    I have had talks in Apple stores in Zuerich also in smaller Apple outlets, they all know about it as it is a common not problem but nuicance with Apples.
    I hope I could shed some light to your problems but I think we can only hope that Apple will change theyr attidude to this **** situation.

    I have successfully sync'd my macbook and new ipad via itunes, but how do I sync the calendar, please ? I do not have icloud yet.

    You can select the calendar to sync in the Info Tab in the iTunes window on the right, when your iPad is connected to the Mac , while iTunes is running and after you select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading.
