So I upgraded to Catalina today, and then tried to sync my iPhone (knowing to expect differences with the upgrade due to the departure of iTunes). However, when connected, it just continues to sync, and there is no status bar to show the progress, so I'm left guessing where it's at, what it's doing. etc. It has been syncing now for over an hour, and still no signs of coming to an end any time soon. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing all this information. I looked at the /~Library/Preferences/ directory and found that I have 56 com.apple.*.plist files. So do you think it is safe to delete them all? Most of them look like they are config type files. I am having a hard time pulling the trigger on the delete button.
there's only one solution to this, Bring back iTunes... :)
I am so tired of that.
Be patient for what? For something that is literally the same exact process but now after an update is literally, and I do mean literally 20x slower?
Come on, you know that sounds ridiculous.
Same here :-(
The worst thing is that, at least for me, I am not sure if it is due to ios 13.3 or Catalina...or both.
this is not getting ridiculous anymore, but this is ridiculous. We have been for months without a solution.... ! This s not delivering what they should deliver.
This is absolutely ridiculous! Apple has created the worst and slowest syncing experience ever. Please fix this!!!!!
Just upgraded iPhone 11 pro to latest firmware and Mac to Catilina 10.15.3... cannot sync pictures from Mac to iPhone anymore... even worst than before. This is just crazy :-(
Same here... just says syncing. Left it attached for 14 hours overnight just to be sure.
Agreed. I will not be updating iTunes in Windows in case they break that one.
Well that’s the definition of Sync. Compare and only update what changed. It wasn’t called Replace.
truly unbelievable.
So after doing the 10.15.4 update today EVERYTHING WORKS AGAIN. So far. Even nested albums within folders in Photos seems to work.
It only took 4 release revisions to fix this.
Hi, I had the same problem. So, I tried to close all Apps on my iPhone and Mac (Photos) and it worked.
Latest update(s) resolves everything. This forum topic can be closed now.
unfortunately not for me. Still thousands of pictures not synced. Many duplicates and I have no idea why... On 18.000 pictures only 10.000 synced.
