Sync photos between my iTunes and iphone. I am trying to sync photos between my desktop iTunes (version 12.12.9.4) and iphone12. The photo folders are "grayed out" on iTunes, preventing their selection. I used to be able to select photo folders but now can not.

Syncing photos from PC to iPad When syncing my iPad with my PC to iTunes, iTunes stops after only some photos are copied. Strangely, only certain pictures are missing from various folders. The message ‘syncing...’ remains at the bottom of my albums (in each one) Long after iTunes stops syncing.....and after leaving everything connected for about 1 hour...nothing changes and the message stays there. How can I get the remaining photos synced?

Big Sur not syncing folders from Photos app to iPhone iPhone OS 14.4.2 and MacBook OS 11.2.3 have the most up to date OS. On my iPhone iCloud photos are OFF and photo streaming is OFF. I have tried syncing just a few folders; same problem (see below) I have tried syncing my entire library of 16K photos and I get the same result (see below) This is after I reset all settings on my iPhone as a possible fix. No matter what I do, my iPhone will only display the “Recents” folder of 1296 images. That’s after the OS indicated my import and sync of 16K photos was successful but there were 22 errors of which iTunes can tell me. iTunes? Nothing in iTunes describes sync errors. I’m syncing using a Finder window. This is very frustrating. All I want is to control folders of photos on my iPhone. Help!!!

If you want to synchronise photos that are on your PC, turn off the iCloud Photos. I'm not an iCloud user, but I assume that photos and music is all one iCloud feature, so if you want iCloud on for music, you will have to synchronise photos from the cloud, as indicated by the instruction on-screen:
