iTunes sync photos - photos library not showing up as an option

Very odd. I have been syncing my Photos library to my iPhone for the longest time with no issues. all 11,000 photos show up on my iphone. Recently I disabled "automatically sync when this iphone is connected" and then reenabled it later. However, sync photos was no longer enabled, so i enabled it. This resulted in all 11,000 previously-synced photos on my iphone erased.


How do i get them back???? SYNC PHOTOS IS NOT GIVING ME MY LIBRARY AS AN OPTION


Thanks.

I would check and make sure your device or devices are not set to the iCloud Photo Library.

iCloud photos library is easy to setup and use.

Here is an article for it.
