Syncing photos from iPad to macbook and vice versa

I recently synced my ipad with my new macbook air. I successfuly imported all my photos from my iPad to iPhoto on my laptop.  However, now everytime I connect my ipad and laptop iPhoto opens and asks me to import all the photos all over again, despite the fact that they are still all there.
I haven't synced my photos with another computer before. I want to be able to add a photo onto my ipad and have it on my laptop and vice versa.
This doesn't have to be done wirelessly, I am happy to only have it happen when I plug them togerther, but I want the same photos on both my laptop and iPad.
I havent really messed around with anything as I am afraid of wiping my photos. I understand that I may have to do this via a third party or something, any help would be great.
Thanks.

Connect the iPad to your Mac then launch iTunes.
Select the iPad under Devices then select Photos from the menu.
Deselect:   Sync Photos from
You probably have iPhoto selected from the pop up menu.
Deselecting Sync Photos from should prevent the prompt to sync every time you connect the iPad.

  • Syncing contacts from iPhone to Outlook and vice versa

    I have the new iPhone and I have set up an account in Outlook and have it sync from my MSN Hotmail account. Everything syncs and looks good with the exception of my contacts. I need to know how to put a contact into my phone and have it sync into my Outlook and vice versa. Currently if I put a contract in my phone it does not go to Outlook and if I put a contact in Outlook it does not go to my iPhone.
    Do I have to add a new contact to the MSN hotmail account and then it will sync to my Outlook and then my iPhone? How do I get the contacts to go from my iPhone to my Outlook and then to my Hotmail?
    Same issue with Calendars.
    Thanks!

    The iPhone supports syncing contacts and calendar events with Outlook 2003 or 2007, which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Syncing contacts and calendar events direct with Outlook 2003 or 2007 via the iTunes sync process syncs direct with the Outlook address book and calendar - with what is available locally on your computer in the Outlook address book and calendar.

  • Syncing Labels from Lightroom to Bridge and vice versa.

    The labels in Lightroom over-ride those in Bridge and vice versa.  I have matched the descriptions of the coloured Labels between Lightroom 2.0 and Bridge, yet when I assign eg. a Green Label in Lighroom and then open Bridge, the Label appears White.  If I select those White Labels in Bridge and make them Green, then return to Lightroom and Sync the folder, those formerly Green Labels are converted to White.
    Same thing happens with the Reject Flag in Lightroom.  It appears as a White Label in Bridge, which I can understand and wouldn't be a problem, were it not for other Coloured Labels in Lightroom displaying as White in Bridge.
    Any one have an explanation for this and more importantly a solution.  Thanks.

    I think you have to assign the exact same name to what the colors represent in both Bridge preferences and in Lightroom preferences.
    I don't even remember what the default names Adobe assigns to each of them. I changed the words to the right of the Label colors to read "Red", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", etc.
    When in Lightroom I have to "Save Metadata to File" and then when I browse to that folder in Bridge I see the correct Label color.

  • Syncing Apps from Iphone to Itunes and vice versa, quick question.

    Hello, so I had a small question to ask about transferring apps from both the iphone to itunes.
    Basically, I downloaded an app from the app store ON my iphone.
    I've made a lot of progress and have a lot of data in this app.
    The(Sync app) box was never checked on my itunes, so I transferred my purchases from my iphone to my itunes, and now i've downloaded a few more apps (over 20mb) ON itunes that I want to put on my iphone.
    Thing is, when I click "sync apps" it gives me a warning saying something along the lines of "Apps in itunes will replace all in iphone, including data"
    Now, i've already transferred my purchases, so all the apps from my phone are on itunes, but if I sync, will I lose the DATA in my apps on my iphone? Or will the data remain in those apps?
    Basically, will syncing my apps replace my settings/data/progress of the apps I have on my iphone?

    There is no data in the apps themselves. Your app data is stored in the backup file iTunes creates. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    From Page 179 of http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iphone_userguide.pdf, "You can reinstall an app and restore its data as long as you backed up iPhone with iTunes on your computer. (If you try to delete an app that hasn’t been backed up to your computer, an alert appears.) To retrieve the app data, you must restore iPhone from a backup containing the data."
    So, make a backup before you click the "Sync apps button. Then, you may have to restore your phone from that backup to reload the data.

  • I have a problem with transfering photos from iPad to MacBook Air, how do I go about doing that?

    Photos from iPad to MacBook Air, I am currently trying to use my USB cord to transfer photos, but how?

    You can only import photos in the camera roll, not synced photos. So I assume that you want to transfer the photos that you shot with the iPad camera. You can use iPhoto or Image Capture on the MBA.
    Just connect the iPad to the Mac with the cable and launch either of those two apps. Your iPad should appear under the devices heading in the left sidebar of the app. Click on the iPad name just like you do when you sync with iTunes and the camera roll photos should appear in the window on the right.
    you can read more here.

  • Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer

    Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer... I want to have them on my computer.
    Why isn't there a way to do this? I don't get it. Sharing photos is such an important thing I don't understand why Apple makes it so hard to do this.
    OK here is my senario:
    Recently went on a trip Hong Kong with someone... we both had iphones and took hundreds of awesome photos. Now we want to share them with eachother. Too many photos for email and I don't wish to upload to flicker/facebook/etc...
    This is what I did thinking it should work...
    1) synced photos on her iphone with her computer
    2) synced photos on MY iphone with her computer
    3) put ALL the hong kong photos in one album
    4) connected my ipad to her computer... attempted to copy photos from iphoto to ipad -- NOPE, can't be done (***?!?!)
    5) so I synced the photos (and only the photos) in the hong kong album using itunes to my ipad -- this worked -- all photos now on my ipad
    6) drove home (5 hours away) and connected ipad to my computer and attempted to import with iphoto -- NOPE, can't be done (***!?!?) Won't even show the photos.
    7) itunes wants to replace all the photos on my ipad with the photos from my computer (***?!?!)
    How are you suppose to do this?! How are you suppose to be able to share lots of photos with people?

    Photos are not copied off the iPad via iTunes.
    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • IPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?

    iPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?
    iPhoto runs and keeps trying to read the iPad photos cycling thru a lot of times eventually crashing.

    There may be a corrupted video or image file on your iPad.
    Try to download from the iPad using Image Capture instead and save the photos to a folder. If that succeeds, you can check the files for corruption before importing them to iPhoto.

  • How to change view in iPhone from vertical to horizon and vice versa?

    How to change view in iPhone from vertical to horizon and vice versa?

    Not all applications will go from Portrait to Landscape. Changing just requires you to turn the device. However, if you have the orientation lock activated, then it will not change to landscape. To check, look in the status bar and see if you can see a small lock shaped icon near the battery icon. If you do, then orientation lock is activated. To turn it off, swipe upwards from the bottom of the iPhone screen to bring up Control Center. The orientation lock is the last icon on the top row to the right. Tap on it to turn it off. White is on, black is off.

  • How do i transfer photos from ipad to MacBook Pro about 100

    After update to yosemite i have about 150 photos that are on my ipad and not on MacBook Pro.  Is there a way to sync the photos from ipad to computer

    I did sync thro iTunes so will have to import them where i can find them...yuck
    The synced photos should be in an album in the "Albums" tab of your iPod.
    As long as you did not transfer  the synced photos to your computer do on no account activate "iCloud Photo Library Beta" on your iPad. That will wipe all synced photos from the iPad.
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
    Email them from the device to yourself.
    Copy them from the emails to your computer.

  • Syncing photos from iPad to iMac

    I have tried several times to sync my photos from iPad to my computer and I get to a point when the import just stops and it is stuck on the picture and it doesn't finish syncing. Every time I tried to sync, it seems that it creates a duplicate of the photos on my computer that were transfered. Very frustrating. I'm not able to sync all my photos from my iPad.
    Any ideas how I could do this?

  • Replication of Custom Fields from CRM to ISU and Vice versa

    Hi Experts,
    We are working on adding Z fields on BP level. For this how does the replication of the values takes place from CRM to ISU or vice versa. What are the middleware enhancement we need to do in CRM side or in the ISU side. We would add the fields on web UI crm side by AET but at ISU side how we need to do that and how would the field values replicate in both the system.
    A approach for adding BP custom fields in CRM and its interaction with ISU and vice versa would be appriciated.
    Thanks,
    Mayur

    Excuse, you may enter more in detail?
    I have created a custom field on BP using the AET would now like to replicate this custom field in BP also in ISU.
    I can do all this using the EEWB, but I would avoid it, since, in ISU we already have custom fields on BP, I just can not link them with CRM.
