Why did photostream only sync 50 out of 170 photos to my new iphone?

I purchased a new iphone 4s and turned on photostream. Only 50 of my photos synced to the new device. I've tried plugging my phone in to charge and syncing icloud when connected to wifi and...nothing. I have multiple pictures of my newborn son that I want to keep with me, but they won't sync to my phone.
Any suggestions?
Thnx.

Where are the photos being synced from?
Remember that photo stream only stores photos from a device (with camera, like iphone) after photo stream has been turned on - it won't take on old photos. If the photos are currently on your computer (where copies should be), copy the photos you want to the photo stream album (on a mac, use iphoto). Photo stream only keeps photos for 30 days (a max of 1000 photos).
Additional advice:
You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. This is covered in the manual.
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

Why can I only sync my iPhone on one computer???

I was just wondering why I can only sync music onto my iPhone from one computer?? and not multiple like you can with the iPods?? I'm getting really frustrated because i have music on my home computer and 2 other laptops!

I am unsure on how I interpret the rule wrong, but here is a copy of the actual rule which I made a link to in my previous post.
Found under, http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/au/terms.html#SERVICE, 10. Purchase or Rental of iTunes Content, Usage Rule (iii).
"(iii) Your license of Products as authorised hereunder permits you to use the Products on five iTunes-authorised devices at any time, except in the case of Movie Rentals, as described below."
Also under, http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/au/terms.html#APPS, 9. USE OF PRODUCTS AND THE SERVICE, Usage rule (iii).
"(iii) You shall be able to store Products on five iTunes-authorized devices at any time."
When I read this, I understand it that the word Products refers to content on iTunes. But it could possibly interpreted differently.

Why can I only sync 2 audible accounts to my iPod

why can I only sync 2 audible accounts to my iPod

Why would you need to sync any more than just 1? What exactly is happening? Need a bit more detail in order to assist you.
However, it sounds like it may be more of an Audible issue, in which case you should contact Audible's support.

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Actually it does with Ethernet too: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2412?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
What happens when the Mac goes to sleep (not just into idle mode or display sleep)?
On all Macs:
The microprocessor goes into a low-power mode
Video output is turned off, and a connected display may turn off or enter its own idle state
Apple-supplied hard disks spin down; third-party hard disks may spin down
On portable Macs:
The Ethernet port turns off, if applicable (see note below)
Expansion card slots turn off
The built-in modem, if present, turns off (see note below)
An AirPort card, if present, turns off (see note below)
The USB ports only responds to the power key on an external keyboard (see below)
The optical media drive, if present, spins down
Audio input and output turns off
Keyboard illumination, if a feature of your portable computer, turns off
But see the note about selecting, "Wake For Network Access" in Energy Saver preferences.
Note: Portable computers have no network connectivity when in sleep mode, but can wake if the Energy Saver option "Wake for network access" is enabled. If you wish to use file sharing or don't want to interrupt your Internet connection, you should not manually put the computer to sleep, and you should drag the "Computer sleep" slider to Never.

Why did I only receive 1 minute of a 5 minute song?

Why did I only dowload 1 minute of a 5 minute song?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Since iOS 6.0 only about 800 out of 1900 photos are transferred to my iPhone

Since iOS 6.0 only about 800 out of 1900 photos are transferred to my iPhone 3GS.
I used to have a similar problem with earlier versions of iO, but the following remedies cured it:
1) In the Photo folder on my Mac cleared and deleted the cache so that when you next syned it would re-make the contents of the folder
2) Turn off much of the content of my iPhone so that it was at least 25% empty.
Now nothings works and I get the following error message on my iPhone:
"iTunes Sync
136 items could not be syned. See iTunes for more information."
No idea where to look on iTunes!
Can anyone help with this problem?
I have an iPad 2 using the same iOS and my photos load fine, but of course not in the right order!

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

It appears to be streaming photos from the last 10 or so days but no more? I have enough storage on my new ipad??

Photo Stream does not count towards your iCloud storage plan.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 Photos in the Photo Stream album. Only photos taken within the last thirty days and since Photo Stream was activated will be synced.

I have an iPhone and occasionally use it for photos, but my main camera is NOT an iPhone. To be forced to go outside Apple for a product when Apple had perfectly good products available is ludicrous. But it is what it is, apparently.

If you live in the US launch the iTunes store, then tap Purchases, then the "not on this phone" tab. If you don't live in the US you will have to buy them again, unless the iTunes Store support staff takes pity on you when you email them with a request for help.
BTW, how many songs can you download between daily syncs?

If your Bluetooth is working, you may be able to tether your phone to another device, and backup that way. Either via iCloud or one of many Apps that send yourself a VCF file containing your contacts.
You may have to update to a later IOS via USB and iTunes, not sure if IOS 6 has Bluetooth Tethering.
I would have thought you could also switch off cloud sync'ing for your contacts, this should ask a question if you want to keep the contacts on your phone. An iTunes Backup and then Restore to your new iPhone should restore the local contacts. Then sync these back to the iCloud.
Hope this helps.

Playlist only syncs 3 out of 10 songs

Hi,
I have created a new playlist and while I see 10 songs in the playlist on my laptop when I get it to syn with my ipod I can only get 3 out of the 10 songs to appear on my ipod. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help!

ok guys i have the same problem here! The subject line say 3 out 10 but in my case its hundreds of songs from multiple playlist that total up 22K songs on IPOD. I will write a few notes i have on this and see if anyone can help.
NOTE-My Itunes and IPOD playlist have previously always been sync'd exactly the same. I do not know exactly when the UN-SYNC began but i believe it was after ITUNES 10 upgrade.
NOTE-I have tried so many troubleshooting techniques but i can not find the culprit. At first i thought it was corrupt mp3 files but that was not it.
NOTE-There does not seem to be any rhyme nor reason for the issue regardless of bit rates, file size, encodings, etc..! I usually find work arounds with ITUNES/IPOD quirks, but this one has me stumped and Im so **** frustrated!!
Things tried - Restored an old library (Itunes 9) prior to ITUNES 10 upgrade. Result= NO change.
Things tried - Exported library, then wiped off old library, created NEW library and imported library. Result= NO change
Things tried - I was getting desperate so i decided to start a new library and recreate my library from scratch, in hopes of individually importing playlist. Anyone that has ever done this knows how much of a pain this can be especially with 56K songs not too mention all the wma to mp3 conversion times. Result= Well regardless of all the hope i had this would resolve the issue once and for all this was useless! It turns out for some reason Itunes 10 decided to rename the mp3 files it had converted from wma files differently than it had back in ITUNE 8 when i created the library years ago. Those of you that know how important file naming/paths is, understand this would have made my years of playlist worthless unless I went to each song and redirected the path.. NOT happening. Therefore I was so ****** I decide to scrap this test.(Guess this another separate issue i will look into)
Things tried - i have the same problem on two separate IPOD's, my 160Gig and my older 80Gig.
NOTE-After finding some of the songs that were not being sync'd i started to troubleshoot those, but the weird part is for some reason either by coincidence or something the particular song im investigating all the sudden sync's on IPOD and i did nothing to it. FYI - I had hit IPOD sync several times through the investigation so who knows if that had some sort of effect!!
Summary: I’ve given this due diligence and confident it is related to itunes10 upgrade. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I replied to an existing subject but might open a new one with better issue description
: Itunes won’t sync ALL playlist songs to IPOD

Why can I only sync when my Apple TV is showing on the TV

Does anyone else have this problem?
I can only sync my PC to the Apple TV when either my Apple TV is actually showing on the TV screen or the TV is OFF.
I am connected via WiFi and Sync speed is good when it is working but why do I have to wait for the TV to be free. I have kids so it has to be either very late or I have to kick them off (no chance)???

Your tv sounds as though it isn't entirely disconnecting the HDMI to the tv when switched to another source and causing it some problems. Whilst I can't suggest a fix, this isn't usual behaviour.
