I don't have problems syncing photos. What do the images that didn't sync for you have in common?

Well the pictures that do sync and dont sync all appear to b the same to me except they are different sizes obviously .. It seems to pick and choose which pictures it wants to sync to the phone

I have windows and I am having the same problem. Only some photos show up. I looked at the online manual and it says in order to sync the computer photos on the iphone you need:


On a Mac:
iPhoto 4.0.3 or later
On a PC: Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or later or Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later

I don't have the photoshop applications, which I don't believe are available for free. I am thinking about buying one of these applications.

Any new info?

i wouldnt go and buy that because u can get a trial version or something like that .. but i believe i fixed my problem

for the pictures that wont sync onto the phone, i took and opened them with paint and then resaved them as a jpeg to make the file size smaller and all of them synced to the phone after that so i would try that before anything else .. it fixed my problem.

Thanks,

Is "paint" a mac thing. The files I have are all jpeg already. But the one file that did transfer was the smallest of all, so maybe it is a size thing.

No paint is on windows .. Jus right click on the picture and go to open with and then select paint .. Once u have the picture in paint go to save as and then make sure its a jpeg and then save and sync and it should show up

I had that same problem on my pc and support said it is a known issue. The work around is to load all pics from a different drive (volume). Worked for me.

Thanks !

That did it. I put the photos on an external media drive and the iphone picked them up easy.

It appears to be a vista-iphone bug.

Thanks,
