Why can't I sync iPhoto albums to iPhone 4

When I sync my iphone4 with my MacBook iPhoto the albums are not synced.  They are checked .

Sync with iPhoto is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes along with the albums you want transferred to your iPhone?
Any error message provided?

  • HT4910 Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Hi Drumsing,
    As long as you have your iCloud account set up and signed in on both devices, and the Notes checke in iCloud on both devices, there is no reason they should not sync.
    Try resetting both devices - Hold down the Hole and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears. Do that for both, then try Notes again.
    P.S., after you write a note, you need to close the App on the device you wrote the note on before you open the app on the other device to see it.....
    Hope this helps,

  • Why can't I sync tunes from iTunes iPhone 4s?

    Why can't I sync tunes from iTunes on my Sony Vaio to my iPhone 4s?  My computer recognizes my phone but iTunes doesn't.  Does it just need updating, if so then how do I do that?  I haven't been able to sync tunes onto my iPhone 4s yet (I got it at christmas 2013)

    Hello, EloiseGO100. 
    Since your device is not recognized in iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

    If the issue persists, try all of the remaining steps.

  • Can't sync iPhoto albums to iPhone

    Here's one I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere:
    iTunes can sync my Schedules / Calendars / Bookmarks fine. But it has a problem with photos.
    I can sync photos from my "Pictures" folder - but not from iPhoto. iTunes doesn't see any iPhoto albums at all, so there's no way to select or sync them. The list is blank, even though I have plenty of photo albums in iPhoto, just waitin' to be synced. (sunc?)
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    How can I get iTunes to see my iPhoto albums?

    I have this problem as well, but I have my iPhoto set up in a funny way. I used ACLs to share the photo library between my account and my wife's account (why Apple doesn't make this easier, I don't know, as lots of families share photos). If I am syncing successfully on my account and then switch to my wife's account, none of the photo albums show up in iTunes for syncing. If I quit iTunes, launch iPhoto, quit, and relaunch iTunes it works fine. But then I have to do the same thing once I switch back to my account.

  • Syncing iPhoto albums to iPhone 4-is there a limit to number of photos in album

    I was able to sync a small album with 69 photos from iPhoto to the iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.5 without a problem. First I synced it as "Last Import" with no edits whatsoever, fresh from downloading from the camera, and then I synced as an album with a number of edits. No problem. When I try to sync an album with about 1100 photos in, only about a quarter of the photos are synced. This not a problem with my first generation 8GB iPod Touch running iOS 3.1.3. What gives?

    Same problem!  I have 530 pics in one Album - but when I sync my to my iPhone 4 - only 56 of the pics are transferred.  I have done a full Restore on the iPhone and Rebuilt the database on iPhoto.  This appears to be happening only since Lion 10.7.1.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    AK

  • Why can't I sync music to my iPhone that I didn't buy off of iTunes?

    I've been having this problem since the release of iOS 7. iTunes will not let me sync songs to my iPhone 4s that I had bought from other sites, or have the CD to. It only syncs (through USB) the songs that I had previously bought off of iTunes. to me, this seems like a scam to get more money out of me, because I read up on iTunes Match, which I'd have to subscribe to, and it says in the description that it allows you to sync songs bought from other places. I'm considering selling my phone, and my iPod touch, for androids or windows phones because of this nonsense. If I have the songs in my possession, I should be able to put them on any device I want, without paying for a subscription to the service.

    I have no idea what you're doing then.
    I believe I have two songs from the iTunes store, both free. Everything else is either from my own CDs or is digital music from other sources, including retailers such as Amazon. I have no problem getting that music onto my iPod. Nor do I use iTunes Match.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "through USB".
    The process is:
    Import the music from CD into your iTunes Library.
    Add digital music (from non-Apple sources) to your Library
    Sync iPod/iPhone with iTunes.
    Job done
    So what are you doing? Can we assume that you have the music in your iTunes Library? If so, what do you do now?

  • Why can't I sync ringtones on my iphone with itunes? Using iOS7 and iTunes11.

    I can't seem to find a way to sync my ringtones on to my iPhone. I'm syncing all ringtones.  I've tried syncing selected ringtones with all selected.  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, unplugged and replugged into my computer (Windows 7). No luck.  I've Googled the issue and all I've found are items from 2011 or older.  Help. An iPhone without custom ringtones is a terrible thing.  lol.

    P.S. I'm wonder if it is a problem with iTunes or with my phone?

  • Anybody having problem syncing iphoto albums with iphone 4s?

    in itunes its showing the photos are on my phone but they arent. when i restart itunes it goes back to the amount on my phone. also ever since i aded the album to be synced my phone hasnt been able to sync to my computer. my system is up to date. my iphone hasnt been plugged into any other computer. my old iphone 4. sadface.

    Turn Off the icloud synch on all devices
    Determine which device will be the inital source of contacts and add all the desired contacts to it. When you are done, turn iCloud synch back on for that device
    Remove contyacts fort the other devices, then
    Turn iCloud back on for contacts on all devices
    It may take a little while for the synch to complete

  • Why can't I sync music to my iPhone 4?

    So I've had my iPhone for about 3 years now. Since about 2 years ago I haven't been able to download music from my iTunes to my iPhone at all. When I drag the song over my iPhone's name it becomes transparent and doesn't let me add my songs. I have enough memory to hold songs, I have about 4.6 GBs left on my phone. I can't figure this out.

    Do you import them into iTunes or just copy the music in a folder ?

  • Why can't I sync my calender from iPhone to Gmail ?

    It had worked a long time but this week. I don't change any setting in my iPhone. I tried to enable/disable the canlender of Exchange/iCloud/Gmail, it steal doesn't work. Please help me ! Thanks !

    I'm having the same issue and the books I'm wanting to sync are checked. It worked on previous audiobooks that I had. In fact, I just finished the two that I had loaded and want to load two more. I only keep two books (4 files) on the device to conserve space. I'm using an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3. there is 3GB free on the iPhone and I don't get any errors when syncing. My music is syncing fine and the books that unchecked were removed from my phone.
    I just tried to resync with one of the books that had previously been on my phone. It will not reload on there either. Here's a screen shot of iTunes and below that is the screen shot from my phone after syncing. Thanks for any help.

  • I set my iPhoto to save photos to a non-default location.  Now I can't find my iPhoto albums in iTunes, even when looking in my non-default location in the "Sync Photos from" menu.  How do I fix this?

    When you launch iPhoto with the option key depressed you'll get this window:
    Click to view full size
    All libraries on your hard drive (and on external drives) will be listed and the currently used library will be listed as (default).

  • Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)

    Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)?

    If it's already in iTunes, you can reconver the video to an even more friendly iTunes format using iTunes' built in converter.  Highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the menu bar.
    When the video(s) has/have finished converting, configure them to sync to your iPod.

    I spent hours building a photo album for my parents only to find out that because my mac is earlier than 2007, even though I have 10.6.8, I can no longer order?! What is with that? This makes no sense. I can go online to various "photo shop" place and regardless of the OS and computer I am working from I can order a photo album so why can I no longer do this through iPhoto on my MAC?
    How do I order my album now? If somebody could please explain as I am going home in 1 month and really wanted to surprise my aging parents with this book.
