Syncing photos seems to over write all folders

I am using iTunes 10. When I sync my photos in iTunes from several folders everything looks like it synced ok but when I open my photos app to look at the photos it contains only one of the folders as an album. If I try to sync using another folder with photos it will delete the photos already synced and then the last folder synced is the only one there.

I also discovered something else. When I was trying to delete the photos that are already on the ipad using the delete button Nothing happens. So I was looking at an apple article about transfering photos from the ipad to your PC. The article mentions that an autoplay window should pop up when the device is connected. When I followed the directions to turn this feature on automatically in the control panel under >hardware>autoplay the device (ipad is not listed). I'm wondering if the Ipad is really worth having..... This is the article I am talking about http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. Someone from apple should get involved here.

  • Lightroom 5 displays No Photos in Selected Folder for all folders.

    All of a sudden Lightroom stopped displaying all of the installed photos. The catalog folders display the correct number of photos, but every folder in the catalog displays the same message —  No Photos in Selected Folder. The photos are all in the correct folders on the hard drives — but they don't even show up as not found — just non-existent. When I hover over a folder an image apperars in the Navigator, but nothing show in the Grid or Loupe view.
    I tried a Sync, and the import dialog came up, saying there were no photos to import. If I go to Import and navigate to photos that have not been imported they appear, but if I go to a folder that contains previously imported photos Lightroom says No Photos Found. The photos themselves are not damaged and will open in Photoshop with no problem. The only change made recently is an upgrade to Maverick on my MacBook Pro Retina laptop.
    Any thoughts will be much appreciated.

    I have had this occur twice, the last time today, after I upgraded to Mac OS 10.9. I have no idea why it happens, but it is very scary to see that there are no photos. I have fixed it both times by (a) rebuilding my catalog and (b) quitting and relaunching Lightroom. I don't know if (a) is necessary, or if relaunching is sufficient. I also have had Lightroom twice "lock" the display, where the same set of photos is displayed, regardless of which folder is selected in the left-hand panel. This is just as scary, and sometimes you don't notice, so you are editing a random photo (the photo that should be displayed, not the one that is incorrectly displayed). I'm using lightroom 5.2

  • How do i sync photos from iphone over icloud to macbook pro?

    I am totally confused as to why photos taken on my iphone or ipad do not sync over icloud to my MacBook Pro.
    If I sync manually I end up with everything else such as calendar and contacts duplicated.
    How can I get the photos to sync over icloud?

    Photos taken on one device will sync to all devices via photo stream providing that all the devices are logged into the same iCloud account and photo stream is enabled on each of those devices.

  • Syncing photos and catalogue over two Macs, using Box

    There's me thinking I was dead clever. I use Box for my business filing, so have unlimited storage and can sync to my two Macs. But it turns out that Box can only sync 40,000 files, and, the killer is, it won't sync the catalogue previews file. These are things they plan to sort in their summer update.
    So, there's me thinking I could use Box to run Lightroom on two Macs, in the field and at home, all nicely syncronised. But it's not quite going to work. I'm wondering if I can just copy the previews file back and forth over my home network, and let Box sync the rest.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    thanks

    Sure you can copy the previews baqck and forth. But have you looked at the size of the Preview folder? This isn't a 10-second job, this is a huge copy. But if you want to, go right ahead.
    But, why bother? Lightroom will regenerate its own previews if needed. If you've got everything else synched, having the previews match on both machines seems to me to be irrelevant, LR will generate/update the previews when needed.

  • Read & Write all folders and files

    How do I allow another account user read & write privileges to all my files and folders? I have set the other user as an administrator however each file and folder that i've copied into their documents folder still need to be changed individually (through the Get Info window) in order to save changes or add new files to them. This is very time consuming, so is there an easier way?

    Not exactly what you are looking for but maybe some useful information:

  • Syncing photos on iphone 4 problem - duplicate folders

    I have just updated to ios 5 on my iPhone and now the photos I have synced from my computer are coming up in two folders with exactly the same pictures,
    I named photo library and one named what I have named it on the computer. How do I get rid of one of these folders as everytime I sync they both come up.

    I think this thread here explains whats going on!

  • Syncing apps with another Mac destroys all folders

    So I'm trying to move all my apps, music, and podcasts to a different (faster) Mac that I want to sync with from now on.
    When I go to the apps tab of my iPhone in iTunes, all my springboard pages are laid out exactly as they are on my iPhone -- just the way I want them. But when I turn on "Sync Apps", all the icons change position, all the folders are obliterated, and I see about 40 pages of apps that it wants me to organize.
    How can I have iTunes respect the folders and icon placement of what already exists on my phone?

    I tried that already. But iTunes didn't see any of my apps or music or podcasts.
    So I moved everything into the "Add Automatically to iTunes folder" where everything loaded properly. So all the apps are installed in iTunes. I don't understand why it wants to completely change my layout.

  • When I press "sync now", which computer over-writes the sync data?

    Does one computer "dominate" the sync process? The home computer? Or the computer you're on when you push sync now?
    Is the sync based on whatever machine has the most recent changes? Or does it just merge the data?
    For example, if I clear browser history (or delete a bunch of old bookmarks) will that data repopulate when I sync or will it be deleted from the other machine? Does it matter if the machine is the original install of firefox sync or the added device?
    Thanks.

  • IPod Classic will not sync photos and crashes when scrolling photos

    I have had my  iPod Classic 80GB for 3 years.  Very recently, although it will sync podcasts with no problem, when it gets to syncing the photos, it comes up with the error :   'The iPod " name of iPod" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found.'
    It is asked to sync photos from My Pictures, and all folders - none of this has changed.
    In addition, when I try to scroll down the photos which I do have - no matter how slowly I do this, the screen goes to the Apple logo and stays there for a while
    Does anyone have any ideas, please?

    Try trashing your iPod's Photo cache and then resyncing your iPod.  See this article to help you determine the location of your iPod's Photo cache on your PC.

  • To make sure sync doesn't over-write the phone?

    I've just installed the new Itunes 9 but haven't connected my iphone USB cable yet Because I don't want to have the computer sync over write all my new info that's on the phone.
    How can I make sure this doesn't happen.......??

    You have control over this.
    The iPhone includes a setting under the Summary tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, and iTunes includes a global setting to not automatically sync when any iPod or iPhone is connected. iTunes > Preferences under the Devices tab.
    Installing an iTunes update alone should not over-write or change anything on your iPhone.

  • When I try to sync photos, I followed all the steps, picked one folder.  When I hit "apply" I get this error message: Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad.  This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad. What have I done wrong

    When I try to sync photos or music, I followed all the steps, picked onle folder, not the whole library.  When I hit "apply" I got this message:
    Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad.  This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad" What can I change to just download the photos and not interfere with the apps?
    (By the way, the memory is not even one quarter full)
    Thanks for your help - Pat

    I have the same problem.  I updated my mac to 10.5, which then had me update apps like itunes, etc. then it wanted me to sync my purchased music to my ipad before i updated the ipad...which worked ok. then when i was syncing the photos i got the same message when i hit "apply" asking are you sure you want to delete the 12 apps from the ipad -  clicked "no" and brought me back to the original screen. Got the same message when trying to move them from the hard drive to the ipad.  WHat is going on and how do I correct this? Thanks

  • HT1535 My iPod has a photo folder from my computer on it, but 'sync photos' is checked off on my iTunes.

    When I plug in my iPod Touch 4th  gen to my Windows Vista computer, and go to the "photos" tab of my iPod on iTunes, the box that says "Sync Photos From" is unchecked, and all of the boxes in its catagory- all of the photo folders on my computer- are unchecks as well. However, one of those foders in on my iPod. I've tried checking, and then unchecking the folder's box on iTunes, but it does no good. What is happening/how do I take the photos off? They're taking up 2 GB that i'd really like to have back. Thanks!

  • HT2265 sync photos to apple tv

    im trying to Sync photos via iTunes to my apple tv (1st generation), but i dont have the option  "Sync photos from: ...", the only thing that appears is "share photos...." please help!!

    I am experiencing the exact same problem. I was momentarily able to get the Apple TV to start syncing photos after I moved them all to the public folder in Vista (I thought maybe sharing permissions were a problem), but the problem has no recurred. I can see all the movie and TV content and can sync those files, but it will not sync photos. I have attempted a full reset of the Apple TV to factory condition and started from scratch without resolving the problem.

  • Hi,  iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.   Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos

    Hi,
    iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.
    Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos on my iPhone, iTunes won't sync ANY photos from iPhoto back to my iPhone. I've restarted my phone, computer, etc., force quit all photo-related apps on my iPhone, and tried various combinations of turning iTunes' photo syncing on/off, switching photo sync folders, etc., all to no avail -- I can't get my iPhoto library back on to my iPhone no matter what I do.
    Anyone encounter a similar situation? (I've already sent feedback to Apple.) Thanks in advance.

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.
