When you can't sync iphoto with your iphone

When itunes gives you an error while trying to sync your pix from iphoto just go into the iphoto library and delate the folder named "iPod Photo Cache".
When you rename an album in iphoto, since the cache file doesnt change, you end up having a mismatch which messes up itunes' mind, therefore just delate that folder (it will automatically recreate with new titles once you sync your iphone again) and everything is going to be alright!

Okay, I solved my problem. Not obvious or easy, but here's what I did. (I'm cutting and pasting the instructions I found that I followed, along with additional clarification from me below):
I went to my iPhoto library in the Finder. There's a file named AlbumData.xml. If you double click it, it should open in Safari. When I opened mine, at the top it said that it was displaying everything up to line so-and-so where there was an error. Good! Now I'm on to something. Next, I used the Find function in Safari to search for "AlbumName". The last "AlbumName" it found was just before the end of the file, so I went back to the next to last "AlbumName" and made note of the album name immediately after it. Then, I opened iPhoto, found the corresponding album in iPhoto to the next to last album name in the AlbumData.xml. Then I changed the name of the album immediately after it (which should have been the last album name in the AlbumData.xml file, but was not displayed because there was an error). Closed iPhoto, opened iTunes, everything works!
Additional clarification: You'll note that when you open the xml file in Safari (drag and drop - and I had two files, oddly, I used the one without a number 2) it says at the top "BELOW IS A RENDERING OF THE PAGE UP TO THE FIRST ERROR". Scanning into the final lines I noticed that a slideshow was what the instructions seemed to be about - a "12 months" sort of deal. I deleted that slideshow from my iPhoto, and voila, all restored when I synced my iPhone with iTunes.
The point is, whatever is at the end of the safari presentation of the xml file is what you should focus on....

    Upgrade to the newest version of iTunes first to see if that helps.

  • Is it possible to change the wait time for when you enter an incorrect password on your iphone/ipad?

    I reaaally hate how anti-procrastination apps like ColdTurkey don't work for apple products, because what's the point of restricting internet usage on the computer when you can just access it from your apple device? There's no point in using the parental controls or setting passwords for obvious reasons, either.
    So I had an idea: from what I know, after guessing the password incorrectly 6 times, the device is locked for 1 min, 7 times, 5 min etc. So I was thinking, is it possible to change the settings, for example, to lock the phone for 60min after 3 wrong password attempts? This would be incredibly helpful!!
    (if you know a way but don't want to post it here, please email me instead!)

    Thanks a lot Rob. That works.

  • Do you still need EJB when you can do it all with JSF/JSC?

    I think EJBs make J2EE unnecessarily complex for 80% of small to mid or even some large scale applications. When you can separate the logic and view using JSF and Servlets, and still do transactions (using JSC DataProviders), why do you still need EJBs? I have heard nightmares with EJBs deployment and how its complex to move them over from test to production servers.
    Are EJBs getting obsolete and not worth learning? Afterall, in the Microsoft world, there is nothing like EJB and all they got is ASP.NET (similar to JSF) -- along with its associated data classes and .NEt framework. I am sure they also promote separating logic from presentation.
    I think JSF is the best thing Java world has got to compete with Microsoft on developer productivity for small to medium size applications.

    J2EE EJB's are far from being a holy grial capable of solving any situation. They are complex, difficult to learn and code, but we need to be fair and tell the whole story.
    EJB's are part of the J2EE technology and offer infrastructure needed in complex applications. I.E., you mention
    "When you can separate the logic and view using JSF and Servlets, and still do transactions (using JSC DataProviders)"
    but these are only database level transactions. The J2EE app servers can handle global (and distributed) transactions involving different operations over different databases and transactions ruled by non-database software. Just imagine the complexity of handling a "rollback" of this kind. Put that in .NET pipe and try to smoke it.
    J2EE EJB Entity Beans were the black sheep of the family. They were oriented to easily handle fine operations (i.e. update a specific record of information) but on the other hand present a poor performance in operations over large sets of data. You can do some optimizations but..... Now the story is a bit different with JavaEE 5 and the Java Persistence API -inspired on Hibernate-.
    The bottom line is (as you mention in your post): J2EE/JavaEE are not needed by most of small or mid sized apps. However, I would strongly encourage you to have a look at the JavaEE 5 technology. The fact that portions of the JavaEE technology do not have a counterpart in .NET does not mean that they are not worth to (at least) have a look at them.

  • Sync single song via iTunes with my iPhone 5 & can't sync music with my iPhone

    Hey there,
    I have two questions about iTunes and my iPhone 5.
    1) I have my full music library connected with iTunes and most songs are not bought via iTunes. Now I have alle artists listet up with their albums.
         Can I now sync only one single song from an album with my iPhone 5? If I want to sync music with my iPhone I can only choose between Playlists, Artists,       Albums and Genres but not single songs. Is there a possibility to sync single songs from a full album?
    2) The other problem is when I want to sync music (and only music!) iTunes starts syncing with my iPhone 5 and nothing happens. After a while a get an error         that the synchronisation is stopped because it couldn't start syncing. Why? What can I do?
    I use a windows 8 laptop with the newst version of iTunes and iPhone 5!

    Which iTunes version is installed on your computer?
    What happens when syncing? Any error message provided?

  • Letter to Lenovo. This is what happens when you can't live up to your own advertising!!!

    THIS IS A LETTER A WROTE TO LENOVO.
    HOW MUCH B.S. IS THIS HUGH!?
    READ AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK...
    THIS IS MY SECOND ATTEMPT TO REACH SOMEONE THAT IS LITERATE!!!!!!!!!!
    AN APOLOGY IS NOT GONNA PUT $825 BACK IN MY POCKET!
    IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN I WOULD HAVE HAD THIS MANY PROBLEMS WITH MY MACHINE, I WOULD NOT HAVE DECIDED ON LENOVO IN THE FIRST PLACE!
    I BASED MY DECISION UPON MANY HAVING MANY SUCCESSES WITH IBM/LENOVO MACHINES IN THE PAST!
    DEAR LENOVO!
    TO WHOM IT MAY -REALLY- CONCERN...
    I have long since been a fan of IBM computers and thus, when the label changed, I trusted Lenovo with the same respect. I am a junior college student at West Virginia University and wanted only the best machine which was both powerful and reliable... the T61 seemed to be my answer. In advertisements I viewed the computer being plunged underwater (and then turned on, no less), smashed into walls at death-defying speeds, and dropped from hundreds of feet . In my case a small amount of sprite, LESS THAN 50CC!!
    The laptop can survive a couple drops right? Being on a very small and tight student budget I tried to make the best of it and decided to be safe, left it alone for the day, and afterwords it worked perfectly for 5 months.  One day the laptop was in sleep mode, I turned it off manually by holding the power button, it turned off. After this, it never turned back on!
    I tried everything-  (static discharge, removal of components, new ac adapter, dust removal, hardware exchange)- it just croaked!
    Eventually, I sent the laptop in to be repaired (for what I was told would be FREE OF CHARGE) in your Texas repair facility only to be told that the laptop was NOT UNDER WARRANTY?! due to the water damage and that the laptop that I PAID $825 for was GOING TO COST ME OVER $900 TO FIX!
    THERE WAS ONLY A MINIMAL AMOUNT OF LIQUID SPILLED ON THIS COMPUTER, I DO NOT BELIEVE IT WAS THE LIQUID THAT DESTROYED THE LAPTOP! 
    THERE HAVE BEEN KNOWN POWER SUPPLY ISSUES WITH THE MODEL T61, SO MUCH SO THAT IT COULD BE CALLED A DEFECT. THIS LAPTOP IS NOT WATER DAMAGED, IT IS DEFECTIVE!
    THIS LAPTOP IS ALREADY OUTDATED by many standards on the market today AND IS NO LONGER EVEN SOLD OR ADVERTISED ON YOUR COMPANY WEBSITE!
    Could it be TOO MUCH to ask for just a simple motherboard swap? I'm sure they've got to be sitting lifeless and stockpiled somewhere...
    As advertised, this laptop DID NOT live up to it's name, I am completely dissatisfied, and now I'm out the $825 I paid for the machine.
    If there are any powers-that-be remaining in this world today, please let them come over you! I NEED A LAPTOP FOR SCHOOL!
    Thank you for your time and CONSIDERATION!

    you can't believe all the marketing ads that you see on tv... this is more of a marketing ethics.
    Thing with your sugar in the lemonade, is that corrodes the electrical components slowly, especially if there is only small amount being spilled.
    Regarding those commercials i think these are just some over-exaggerated marketing campaign, just like car commercials, some of which shows that toddler can drive it.

  • Can't sync contacts with my iphone using icloud?

    I have tried to sync my contacts on my iPhone and iMac and will only go one way.  From the iMac to the iPhone through iCloud.  When adding new contact to the phone it won't appear on the iMac contacts.  I have 696 contacts on the iMac and and 750 on the iPhone.  Any ideas?

    Ok.   If you want the 696 contacts currently in iCloud to be the master list and have them replace the contacts on your phone, do the following:
    On your phone, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts off and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.
    Download the app My Contacts Backup to your phone.  Open the app, tap the gear icon on the lower right, and in the window that opens, scroll to the bottom and tap Remove All Contacts.  (If you want to back them up first, you can use the app the back up the contacts on your phone as a vCard attachement to an email that you send to youself, which can later be used to restore them if necessary.)  Confirm that all contacts are now deleted from your phone.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts on again.  Confirm that the 696 contact from iCloud are now on your phone.
    Add a test contact on your phone and confirm that it appears on icloud.com and your Mac now.  If so, you should be all set.

  • TS4062 Can't sync wirelessly with new iPhone

    I've done all seven steps here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4062?viewlocale=en_US. I have an iPod, iPad, and iPhone 4. All were syncing wirelessly. I upgraded the iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5. The new iPhone won't sync wirelessly. The iPad and iPod still sync fine. On the iPhone, the "Sync Now" button is greyed out. I have iOS 6.0.2, iTunes 11.0.1, and Mac OS X 10.7.5.
    Why does this have to be such a pain?

    Ever since the new version of itunes came out, I can't sync my ipod with it. I have Windows 7 and an ipod nano.
    Doublechecking ... do you have the new 10.6.1.7 version (released yesterday, NZ Time)?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • Itunes can not sync apps with the iphone [name], because it can not determine which apps are installed on the iphone.

    After installing the latest Version of iTunes (10.5.1.42) on my Windows XPs PC it's not possible to sync my iPhone 3GS (not iOS 5!) any more - I get the error message above. It's possible to download music, apps, podcasts - but not possible to sync with my iPhone..
    Any Ideas?

    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.  Have the first two been tried?
    How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
    What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue?

  • Can I sync iphoto with icloud?

    This must be a very common question but I don't want to use google to store photos. I would like to have them synced everywhere - from my iphoto library on my mac to iCloud, from my iod device to both icloud and iphoto on my mac.....
    Is this possible and is there a way of removing duplicate photos??
    I'd be very grateful for any advice.
    Thank you.
