Thumbnails do not contain all my photos

I'm working on making photo books, but the thumbnails of my photos stop at July of 2008, even though I have pictures in iPhoto all the way to the current date.
Does anyone know how to get them to all show up in the thumbnails section that is at the top of the screen when making a book? Thanks for the help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I previously had an iPad 4 but have now got the Air. Everything was backed up to the cloud but my various photo albums do not contain all my photos. It just says downloading but it never happens.

I have just upgraded to the Air but am having trouble with my photos. Everything was backed up to the cloud before I set up the new iPad but many of my photo albums are empty or contain only one or two pictures and it says it is downloading but nothing happens. I upgraded from a 4. I have had all the iPads and have never had this problem before. Can anyone help please?

HT4910 My iCloud contact list does not contain all the contacts that are in my phone. If I delete one from my phone it will delete it instantly from the iCloud contacts. But how do I get all those other contacts on my phone to the iCould on my Windows c

My iCloud contact list does not contain all the contacts listed in my iPhone 5S. If I delete a contact from the phone it instantly deletes it from the iCloud on my PC. But my PC iCloud list is lacking many of the contacts on my phone.

And which account did you enter these contacts in?
On My Mac
or
iCloud?

Is there a way to make PSE 13 NOT open all my photos when I open the program?

Is there a default location when I can change it so that when I open PSE 13 Organizer it does not open all the photos in the Album? I would rather that It just opened the Folders and let me choose which file to open. I have Windows 7 if that makes any difference. thanks...

Is it the same question than in this post ?

TS4425 I can not get all my photos on apple tv.

I have over 300 photos in photo stream which I can see from my ipad, phone and use to be able to see on apple tv. Updated apple tv and now can not see but a small portion of them. Read the article about accepting terms and conditions but I was never asked to accept terms so no improvement

Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device, it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

HT4236 Why will my iPod not sync all the photos I want it to - I get a message saying that it cant display certain images. All my photos are in jpg format and similar size.

Why will my iPod touch not sync all the photos I want it to. I get a message saying it cant display some of my photos. They are all in jpg. format and similar size. Never had any problems before!
Thanks

That sounds exactly like an issue that has plagued McAfee users for around a year.

My IPhoto library will not sync all my photo's and videos to my IPhone 4

My IPhoto library will not sync all my photo's and videos to my IPhone 4. It comes up well short every time. After syncing, I get a message, "example 1171 photo's could not be synced, please see Itunes for help". I have lots of space/gb on my Iphone, so I'm confused. I've done a factory reset and done all the usual stuff, but to no avail. My Iphone is a 32gb IPhone 4, my IMAC is OS10.6.8 and my IPhoto is IPhoto 08. I appologise in advance if i'm posting in the wrong place, so please no nasty trolls. I just need good, honest, kindly advice and a solution to this. I use my IPhone as a further external backup for my photo's
Kindest regards
Paul

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

"the repository does not contain all the required definitions"

Hello,
At customer's site, I experiment a problem with Powerdesigner Viewer version 16.5.3.2 (4343) to view content of the repository created by Powerdesigner 16.5.3.2 (4343).
I got the message "The repository does not contain all the required definitions. It cannot be used with this version of the Viewer.".
Is there someone having an idea of the solution ?
Kr,

TS4036 I have restored a backup into a new iPad but it did not downloaded all my photos. There is a message saying " downloading 515 of 1230" but it never finishes downloading. How can I get all my photod downloadeda.

I have restored a backup into a new iPad but it did not downloaded all my photos. There is a message saying " downloading 515 of 1230" but it never finishes downloading. How can I get all my photod downloadeda.

Sorry this solution is late but I just got off of the phone with Apple support and this worked.
Open iTunes
Connect your iPhone and keep it connected during this entire process.
In the iTunes menu at the very top (File, Edit, View) choose STORE> Sign in and sign into your iTunes account.
Once this is complete look at the upper right corner of iTunes and you will see an iPhone and Store button, cick STORE. Now you will be in the iTunes store where you see the advertisements of the various albums, songs etc. Look on your upper left of the window for your itunes account name and in the black band next to your iTunes account name, you will see a House icon, then Music, Movies, TV Shows etc.
Make sure the HOUSE icon is selected.
Stay on this screen in iTunes and on the lower RIGHT, you will see an area that says- QUICK LINKS. In that area click - Purchased
After you do this you will be transported to another area of iTunes. Here there will be a menu across the top- Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, Books are the choices.
Choose APPS and you will see the apps that you have purchased. You will also see the apps that didn't download to your phone.
Find the apps that didn't download and click the cloud next to their name. Doing this will download the chosen apps to the computer you are on.
Once you have downloaded the apps in question, in the upper right corner click LIBRARY.
Now you should see the button that says iPhone because your phone is still plugged in. Click the iPhone button and then click SYNC on the lower right to sync your iPhone.
The apps you downloaded will now be on your phone.
Sorry for the long instructions but this is what works.

HT1351 When I import cds to itunes the albums do not contain all songs. If there are multiple artists or a duet, each song shows up as an album.

When I import cds to itunes, the albums do not contain all songs. If there is a duet, each duet is listed as a separate album.
As an example," Genius Loves Company" or "Tuskegee" each are listed as many albums---each album has a separate song.
I spoke to Apple Help and they were of some help, but did not answer the question.

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

When I plug my Ipad2 to my Imac, it does not sync all my photos from my Itunes library. It also splits events and picks what it wants to sync. How do I get all my photos to sync with Ipad2?

When I sync my Ipad2 with my Imac, it does not sync all the photos. It seems to pick & choose what it wants to sync and also splits events. How can I set it to sync all photos so both libraries are the same?

Can't help you with the sync problem but the splitting of events was supposedly fixed with the iPhoto 9.1.3 updater.
This is from the download page:
This update fixes a problem that could cause some events merged in iPhoto to be split back into multiple events on iOS devices after being synced.
So update iPhoto to 9.1.3 and re-sync. If you already have updated to that version then I'm at a loss.

IPhoto does not add all new photos to the photostream???

iPhoto is not adding all new photos from one group, recently imported, to the photostream. Why? The photostream has space. The photos were all taken the same day, but only a small number of them from one import show up. Any idea why?

I have already got my refund for the cable! I tried a friends cable and everything works!

IPhoto not displaying all imported photos

Hi!
I am having trouble viewing all of my photos in iPhoto. They are all in my iCloud, and they appear in that photo stream. However, after I have imported *ALL* of my photos from my iPhone, iPhoto is only displaying some of them. It seems like there is an algorithm that is picking only one photo to display from a series of similar photos, (note: I am not talking about burst photos). I do a lot of shooting with my iPhone for my business, and I hate that I'm not able to access all of them in iPhoto. I also want to make sure that I am actually getting them all archived on my computer before I delete them from my phone. I have used the "Rebuild Thumbnail" function that you can access by holding down command and control when starting iPhoto. This seemed to help some, but it certainly did not restore all of the thumbnails.
I'm running a mid-2011 Macbook Air with OSX 10.10.2 and iPhoto 9.6. My iPhone is up to date also with iOS 8.1.3. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for replying Larry. I am importing via direct USB connection and importing through iPhoto app, not just syncing with iTunes. My photo library is located on my Time Capsule. But I had this problem before I relocated the library to the time capsule actually.

Iphone 4 will not sync all my photos after lion update

I just upgraded to Lion, and my iphone 4 will no longer sync all my photos. Nearly 600 are missing. I recieved the below error message -
Some of your photos, including the photo "AANP.JPG", were not copied to the iPhone "My iPhone" because they cannot be displayed on your iPhone.
All my photos were showing before I upgraded to Lion. All the files in question are a .jpg format
Here is what I have tried/checked-
I made sure all my photos were checked when syncing my iphone to itunes
I restored my iphone to orginal settings (it shows that there should be 1900 photos in itunes, but my phone only downloads 1300 of them)
I have made new albums and folders to get the files to show, but oddly enough my phone will not download them.
I do know about the article that says I need to restore the iPhone photo cache...and maybe I am slow, but I have no idea how to find the cache to clear it. I realize there is a tab in itunes that says photos, but how do I clear the cache from here?? The article is very confusing, and I really need more detailed directions.
The article says - If you need to free up space on your hard drive, or are directed to do so by another article, you can locate and remove the iPod Photo Cache folder(s).
link to the article - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
Which is all well and good, but where do I find this cache???
Any help is appreciated!

Update - I found the iphoto cache deleted it. This did not work.... it still cannot find the photos. I then placed all the photos on my desktop and synced my phone to the folder. It found ALL the pictures on my desktop folder. I would still prefer to find a fix, so I can sync my photos to iPhoto....

ITunes not synchronizing all checked photos from iPhoto to iPhone

I've just installed iOS 5.1.1, discovered that not all photos that I checked in iTunes had been synchronized to my iPhone, noted that Other was taking up lots of space, restored the iPhone from a backup, discovered that it still did not subsequently sync all requested photos, selected to sync no photos and delete those on the iPhone, and am in the process of once again syncing the photos that I selected. In short, I have been experiencing the usual frustration with iOS 5, new version notwithstanding.
Now I notice that I selected 25,287 photos, but iTunes is reporting "Copying photo ... of 13,320". Why just 13,320? I elected to erase all the photos on the iPhone, so I would expect that iTunes would have to copy all 25,287!
Has anybody experienced this problem? Maybe Apple would be wise to invest some cash in software quality control. iOS 5 and iPhoto '11 are seriously flawed.

The operative word here is quality control. Quality control of a major number version encompasses regression and stress tests. Regression tests ensure that what used to work still does. Some regression tests can be automated, depending on the design of the program and the sophistication of any testing frameworks. Some have to be adapted to take into account changes in the way something is done in the new version, which, obviously, is another source of error. Some regression tests can only be done manually, with human operators following written scripts and comparing the outcome to screen shots, etc. An important source of regression tests are bug reports. Once the bugs have been resolved tests should be created in order to ensure that they don't reappear. Stress testing, at least when the stress factors can be tested separately, is relatively straight forward. Things get more complicated when the stress consists of various processes running simultaneously.
As you can imagine, quality control, incuding support, depends on available manpower and, generally speaking, the more manpower available the better.
