Too many photos for iTunes to allow photo syncing

I have over 43,000 photos in my iPhoto and I bought a new iPhone 6 Plus so I am trying to sync specific events and albums back to the iPhone.  The issue is that with 43,000 photos, iTunes just has a grey loading spiral going round and round in circles so it will not let me choose the normal menu which allows you to sync automatically or manually sync photos.  It has been doing this for a day.  I thought it might eventually pull itself together but, alas, not.
I have the latest version of iTunes, iPhoto, iOS and Yosemite.
Help?
Is there a way to fix this or another app which allows me to sync the albums, event etc?

This worked perfectly, Terence, thanks so much for the suggestion!

    How many photos are too many photos for iPhoto? When do I need to updgrade to Aperture?

    Hi Terrence,  this is what happens, all too often when I click on something, sometimes it takes me 5 more clicks on the mouse while moving the cursor around to get rid of it. The one below popped up as I clicked on my junk mail.
    The next one popped up when I was trying to get on to a site. This happens all the time. Don't know why it is happening. It happens on iPhoto, Aperture, everywhere I go, FaceBook...everywhere and at any time. So frustrating. I don't know if this is normal, but this was happening just before my last mac died a year ago.

    My ipod touch 4g keeps telling me that I have too many photos and videos and will not let me download apps.  I have deleted all the photos and videos and some of my old apps but it keeps telling me the same message.  I have tried to sync it with the pc and I have turned it on and off and I have reset it but nothing has worked.  Please help!  Thank you

  • Keyword Search showing too many photos

    I have over 22,000 photos and over 300 keywords for them.  Sadly I cannot search by keyword since the keyword list only shows the last 146 keywords on the screen (a known bug that, in my case, only shows keywords beginning with p-z) and there is no way to scroll to any keywords before it.  I have therefor taken to entering the keywords manual in the "all" field, which worked fine in iPhoto 08, but reveals way too many photos in iPhoto 11.  From what I can tell, if there is one photo with that keyword in any given event, it will show me every photo in that event.  So, for example, if I want to see "Jane" and there is one photo of Jane in the Hawaii" event, it will show me every photo in the "Hawaii" event.
    I have occassioanlly stumbled upon workarounds for this, I think entering a space after the keyword or something, but can't recall any concrete solution that seems to work now.  Can anyone help me with this extremely frustrating problem?  (And I know about Smart Albums.  That won't solve this one.)

    Did you ever solve this problem. I have it too and it's driving me crazy.

  • There are way too many photos on my internal hard drive. I have older libraries, and newer libraires in iPhoto and Aperture 2.  What is the best way to find and reduce the number of duplicate photos/libraries  before upgrading to Aperture 3?

    Good idea.
    Back up first.
    I would probably wait for the merge function of the latest version before merging. Be sure to verify every merge.
    Merge Libraries, then from within Aperture move images to referenced on external hard drives.

    No.
    Have a current backup.
    Hold the option command keys and launch iPhoto to launch the First aid.
    Start with repairing permissions first and proceed from there.

    ckeng,
    Normally the IN clause has restriction of 10000 values in general sql/plsql we will go with inline queries i think model your rpd to generate inner queries
    select * from emp where dept_id in (Select distinct dept_id from dept);
    or have a condition/filter on sub report and make one more inner report with sub-filter but definitely it will cause performance issues.
    thanks,

  • Too many lines for CO-PA assessment postings in KSB1

    Hi Experts,
    I created an assessment cycle in KEU1, with one segment, using an PA transfer structure (several cost elements to several value fields), and I´m using one single secondary cost element (category 42) to credit the cost centers.
    When I execute the assessment via KEU5, the credits in the cost centers for the cost element category 42 generates too many lines (for example, I had 3 postings to 3 primary cost elements and in KSB1 I have 9 lines of "credits" - operation KSPA.):
    Primary Cost Elements:
    4110201004  ==> 3.000,00
    4110209009  ==> 2.000,00
    4110209013  ==> 1.000,00
    Secondary cost element (after settlement through KEU5):
    6519999999 ==> 134,36-
                                198,92-
                                190,49-
                                291,54-
                                548,27-
                                311,88-
                                2.659,89-
                                1.268,02-
                                396,63-
    Do you know how can I summarize this postings to have only 3 (ore one) line for the secondary cost element? I cannot identify what was the criteria used by SAP to generate 9 lines.
    Kind Regards
    Mayumi

    the number of line item crediting the cost centre, shall be the same of the line item required in the COPA posting. So the more receiver you have in COPA , the more line item are created.

  • "Bad Data, too many results for shortname"

    Every 10 minutes since October 13 the wikid error log has recorded the following error message:
    *"Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username"*, always naming the same user, who is not actually doing anything.
    Coinciding with that message at the same time every 10 minutes, the system log records 13 or 14 of the following:
    *"Python\[15645\]: ••• -\[NSAutoreleasePool release]: This pool has already been released, do not drain it (double release)."*
    15645 is a process owned by _teamserver, which would appear to confirm the connection between the python and wikid error messages.
    Last clue: The messages (I have determined in hindsight) started while I was setting up the server to do vacation messages. The user named in the "Bad data" messages was the user who wanted to (and did) set up a vacation message at that time. They worked, too.
    Anyone have any ideas about what is going on and how to fix it? BTW, google does not find even one page where this "Bad data" error message is mentioned.

    Thanks for your response. To answer your questions:
    +Are you using AD for your directory?+ No. OD master only.
    +Are there users with duplicate shortnames in your directory system?+ No, and to double check, I searched with WGM and only the one came up.
    +As a bit of background, the wiki server keeps an private index of user and group information so we can track user preferences, and the "Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username" error is triggered when we do a lookup in that index for a particular user and we (unexpectedly) hit duplicate entries. Are you seeing an issue with using the software, or just an annoying log message?+ It's hard to say (for me) what might be related. The directory or wiki related issues with the server include:
    • A memory issue with slapd that eventually causes it to crash. (preceded by lots of "bdbdbcache: db_open(+various: sn, displayname, givenname, mail, maybe others+) failed: Cannot allocate memory (12)" and "logging region out of memory" and "index_param failed" errors.
    • The wiki is slow, despite very light use.
    • Wake from sleep (network clients with authentication required) can be very slow. Several minutes even.
    Any suggestions you may have would be appreciated.

  • Acme GiFEncoder: java.io.IOException: too many colors for a GIF

    I have been using the Acme GifEncoder to save images as gifs. I have been using this quite successfully until today. For some reason it now gives an error when I try to use this in some circumstances. The exception is:
    java.io.IOException: too many colors for a GIF
    I am not sure why it will work in some situations and not others. If anyone can give any insight on this problem then I would appreciate it.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reference to the quantizer. I will try it out and see if it works.
    That is going to lead me on to have a bit of a rant about GifEncoders. I realise that gifs are limited to 256 colours. It is ridiculous that a GifEncoder would not limit the number of colours for you. If you have an image in another format such as jpg that does not have a limit the number of colours, the encoder is not able to convert it into gifs unless it has the number of colours reduced. As far as can tell this should be an essential function of the encoder, unless anyone can tell me differently.
    Also if anyone can advise me on the Acme JpegEncoder I would appreciate it. It does not seem to work in any shape or form. I am not trying to do anything in particular with it now, so I have no code to show. I did try to use it before and it did not seem to work, so if anyone knows how to get it to work that would be great.
    Once again, thanks for your help.

  • Multisim 2001 "too many parameters for subcircuit" error

    When simulating circuits in Multisim 2001 with op amps from User library am getting Netlist Error message "Unable to correctly determine the nodes for the current circuit due to the following reasons:
            Too many parameters for subcircuit type lf156_op_amps_1 (instance: xxu3)"
    or a similar message for whatever op amp am using.  Have tried creating components for several different op amps and always get same error message.  Carefully checked the Pin Mapping Table and the symbol pins are correctly matched with order of pins in model.  The only way have been able to get a simulation to run with op amp components in the User Library is if copy an op amp directly from Multisim library to User library and make no changes whatsoever.  But if do something seemingly minor such as bring up the Symbol editor and add a text note underneath the symbol then get the "too many parameters for subcircuit" error.
    Am also getting a Consistency Self Check error stating "Error: The circuit it empty.  Simulation requires at least one ground."  Do have ground in circuit; presumably this error is related to Netlist error above.
    Operating system is Windows XP Professional.

    Well, this is an interesting situation in Multisim 2001. I tried doing this with another component and had the same results. I just renamed the part with no other changes and re-saved it to my database and sure enough I got this error. I have no idea what is causing this other than just a bug in the software. Us 2001 users will just have to live with this unless someone does happen to find a solution.
    I don't seem to have any problems when creating new components and using or editing existing symbols with new model information. This does suck. What if just wanted to edit one paramenter instead of using a completely different model? I really hope someone can find a workaround or solution to this. I am glad you broughtm this to our attention.

  • Access 2010 table has too many fields for web database - how to split into two web-compatible tables?

    Hello, 
    I'm in the process of converting an Access 2010 database into a web database and I'm having some trouble. I have a table which has 236 fields, which is more than the 220 field limit for web-compatible tables. I have tried to split this table into two tables
    with a one-to-one relationship, but web tables can only use lookups as relationships. I've tried to connect the tables with a lookup and then synthesize a one-to-one relationship by using data macros but I'm not having much luck.
    I realize that 236 fields is a lot, but it must be set up this way because each field represents a tasks and is a yes/no box to verify that the task has been completed - and the records are different employees for whom which the tasks need to be completed.
    Could someone please help me figure out a way to make this table web compatible?
    Thank you,

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.

    Hi Odie,
    Not too familiar with XQuery rewrite, but i suspect by providing this hint, Oracle cannot optimize the query whatsoever.... tried this hint in my actual query and basically hangs.... I will attempt at opening an SR with Oracle...
    the other option i'm looking at is checking the date ranges outside of xquery, and using a mix of xmltable, xmlexists and the SQL XML functions to reconstruct my xml.

    Hello Ben,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your iTunes is indicating that you have more pictures than you really do. You can use the steps under "If your device gets stuck during startup" in the following article. It doesn't mention the issue you are describing, but other users reporting the same thing have reported success using these steps.
