  • How to sync photos from MacBook Pro to iPad 3?

    How to sync photos from MacBook Pro to iPad 3 without it automatically deleting previously synced photos, or replacing them with new ones?

    How can I create albums in the Photos app on the iPad
    Photos that were taken with the iPad (or any photos in the camera roll) can be deleted right on the iPad. Tap the trash can icon in the top right corner if you are viewing the pho,to in full screen, or if you are viewing as thumbnails - tap the arrow in the upper right corner - tap the photos that you want to delete and then tap - Delete.
    Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced -  and then re-syncing.

  • Unable to sync photos from iPhoto to Apple TV

    I am using iphoto5.0.4 and am unable to sync photos. I select the photo album and click on the "apply" button which greys out for a while and then reverts. When I click on "my photos" in Apple TV I get the message that "There are no photos on your Apple TV." The ATV is able to stream photos from my Powerbook G4 just fine. When I go to "Screen Saver" on the ATV it is only able to access Apple Photos. I upgraded the ATV software without effect. What am I doing wrong?

    On the tv you should have selected 'settings/computers/connect to itunes library', I think you likely selected 'settings/computers/connect to shared library'. You may have to select your current shared library and unlink it before you can set it up properly but I'm not too sure as I've not had to do it myself.

  • Unable to sync photos from iPhoto

    Got an 8GB iPod Touch yesterday. I can sync everything except my photos from iPhoto. When I go to the Photo tab in iTunes, I place a tick in the check-box that says "Sync photos from:" and then I select iPhoto from the Combo-box. There are 2 radio buttons but only "All photos and albums" is available... "Selected Albums" is greyed out. The box below the radio buttons is also grey and has no entries.
    If I try to sync "All photos and albums" I get an error message on my computer that reads: "The iPod [iPod name] cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-50)."
    Software updates have all been applied, I have restored my iPod, have verified and fixed file permissions, etc. I have rebuilt the iPhoto library (Command-Option). Both iTunes and iPhoto have been working fine, with no other problems. I am using iLife '08 so I am using iPhoto '08 (version 7.1 (347)).
    Has anyone any experience with the problem? I'm thinking that my next step is to reinstall iPhoto/iTunes but I would much rather not have to do that... any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Bill
    P.S. I can sync photos from my desktop, just not from iPhoto '08.
    P.P.S. My 5th gen video iPod can sync photos from my iPhoto library!

    Hi Damon,
    Thanks for the update and the suggestion of trying a new user account... I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Well, you will not be too surprised to hear that with a new user account the photos synced no problem.
    That leaves me with an iPhoto library rebuild on my hands. The Apple provided rebuild didn't resolve my issue when I tried it last week. So I will need to do a manual rebuild... something which I have done once before but vowed never to do again as I lost hundreds of hours of work organising and tagging my photos... something which I have invested considerable time in recovering and don't want to lose them again.
    With Leopard around the corner, I will be performing a clean install of the new OS on a fresh HDD within the month, so I am going to recreate my iPhoto library that way... rather than invest time now only to see it wasted later.
    Thanks once again for the pointers to those Apple docs... most useful.
    Kind regards,
    William

  • Is there a way to sync photos from macbook air to iPhone wirelessly.

    I want my images from macbook to synch with iPad, iPhone automatically once I put it on my laptop. Is this possible. I don't want to have to connect my iPad or iPhone to my macbook air once i have pictures to upload.
    thanks.

    Yes. See iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    There are also 3rd party apps such as: http://www.photosync-app.com

  • Unable to sync photos from pc to iphone4

    downloaded photos in iphone to pc and saved in a folder.  tried to sync additionla photos from another folder, selecting the folder & using the itunes and it says syncing and it shows the number of photos syncing.  the photos tab on the bottom shows the # photos in the phone, and does not show the new addition.  i even deleted all of the photos on the phone and tried to upload (from the folder withthe original photos from the iphone) just those photos thinking of some incompatitibilty with the file extension (jpeg) on the other folder.   using windows 7, updates on iphone 4s are up to date.  anyone?

    Read carefully:
    You can only sync ONE folder to the phone.  Whatever is NOT in that folder will be removed from the phone.  You CAN create sub folders to logically divide up your pix into albums.
    For example:
    If you sync your phone to the folder iPhonePicAlbums, you will get all of Friends, Home & Family, and IDpix
    You will NOT get PS Express, even if those pix were previously on the phone.  If you want the pix from the folder PS Express to be transferred to the phone, make it a sub folder under iPhonePicAlbums.

  • Unable to synch photos from MacBook to new iPad 2, Unable to synch photos from MacBook to new iPad 2

    When synching my new iPad 2 with my MacBook for the first time my photos did not synch. Stated unable to finf file can anyone assist

    First, with iTunes not running, launch iSync from your applications folder & under preferences, reset sync history. Then, delete the ipod photo cache, as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
    Re-boot your computer, launch iTunes, connect your phone & see if your photos will sync now.

  • IPad will not sync photos from MacBook Pro master

    All syncing operations work except "Photos".  While analizing photo's program crashes & reverts to "problem report to Apple" window

    Thanks Eric.  Yes, when the iPad is connected, I have checked the appropriate boxes in the iTunes Photos Tab for the device to try to sync some or all albums, events, etc. from iPhoto and have tried checking the boxes for various subfolders to try to sync from the "Pictures" folder. 
    I am able to see all of the folder iPhoto and Pictures folder options from iTunes. When I click on the various folders, the capacity bar will increase and decrease depending on what I select or deselect.

  • Unable to sync photos from iphone 3g

    My iphone has over 500 pictures on it, but only about 250 are showing in iphoto. Thinking this might be an iphoto problem, I tried to sync with bridge and lightroom, but the photos are not showing for those, either. How do I force the photos to show up on my computer so I can get them off the phone?

    Try the Image Capture application that ships with every Mac. If that doesn't work either consider downloading the PhotoToMac app. It transfers your photos to your Mac over WiFi.

  • My iPhoto library has frozen on STOP button (L.H.S.)-also unable to trsfs photos from iPad to iPhoto on laptop - I need help

    While making a movie this afternoon I needed more info, so thought I would print out the page. Then realized it was all the photos in movie that was being printed so I hit the red stop button on iPhoto library - this is when iPhoto screen froze on me - I need help ?????

    There is no red stop button on iPhoto, so I'm not sure what you're saying here. Perhaps you mean the stop button on the printing software? Also, iPhoto doesn't make movies? Do you mean slideshow? Or were you exporting a slideshow? Sorry but this is just not clear. What version of iPhoto? of the OS?

  • 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.

  • Unable to sync Ical from Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11.

    I am unable to sync Ical from my Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11. (and yes, the Iphone shows up as recognised in the sidebar and will sync Ical from Macbook to Iphone.) All ideas welcome.

    If Damon's suggestion of resetting sync history doesn't fix the problem you most likely have a bad contact record in iCal. When they sync encounters the bad record it doesn't know what to do with it so it stops. To fix it you must find the bad record, open it, make a small change, and save it. An easy way to find the bad record is to create a new group and set the iPhone to sync to this group. Put a few records into the group at a time, then sync. At some point the sync will fail or hang. You have then narrowed the problem to a few records.

  • Using iTunes to sync photos from selected albums grayed out

    After I connect my iPhone 4 (running iOS 6) to my iMac, launch iTunes, select the iPhone device, then select Photos, I am unable to choose Sync Photos from iPhoto "Selected albums, Events, and Faces, and automatically include Events."  The radio button is grayed out on my primary iMac.  It is not grayed out when I connect the iPhone to my MacBook Air or to another Mac which means it is a problem specific to this one computer (running OSX 10.8.2 and the latest iPhoto and iTunes). I have looked all through the discussions and cannot find a solution to this problem. As suggested in the discussions, I've tried deleting the plists, creating a new account on the iMac and trying it there (it is grayed out there as well), re-installing iPhoto and iTunes, all to no avail. Advice welcome.  Thanks.

  • Unable to delete photos from my ipad2 .

    I am unable to delete photos from my ipad2. I am able to select the photos to delete but when I press the red delete button nothing happens. Is anyone else having this experience? Is there a known problem. Is there a solution?

    You don't say what type of photos - were they taken with the iPad or synced from your computer ?
    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing (if you were able to delete them directly on the iPad, then the next time you synced photos they would be put back onto the iPad, unless you remembered to also remove them from your computer).
