Duplicate iPhoto events in iPhone/iPad sync

Vielen Dank!!! Hat das Problem für mich auch gelöst!

Thanks a lot, Jmrocos! This really worked for my iPhone 4!

I confirmed several faces in iPhoto, shut iPhoto, connected my phone and then no more duplicated events!

Don't know why but it really worked!

Temp Solution: Exit itunes. In iPhoto, sort photos by Title instead. Don't sort by date. Then re-open iTunes, plug-in iOS device, goto photos tab.

@jmorcos, francofornia, Diyan,

But does the solution "stick"? Some things to try:

1. Without even opening iPhoto after the first successful sync in iTunes, sync the iOS device again. Is the events list still OK?
2. Before syncing the iOS again after the first successful sync, open iPhoto and make a change unrelated to faces, e.g., assign a photo to a location, or import a photo. Then close iPhoto and sync the iOS device. Does iTunes still display the events list correctly?

Regards,

Richard

Bizarre or what! However, it does seem to work (both iPad 1 and iPhone 3GS). Tomorrow is another day though, so let's see how it is then!

...and lo and behold, importing a photo and adding it to one of the split events causes the problem to reappear! So for the time being I shall just confirm a face after each photo upload and hope Apple get a fix out soon!

Cheers

Mike

I can confirm the solution of confirming a Face in iPhoto then quitting iPhoto and opening iTunes does restore the Events list to normal. Waiting for the patch.

What should I do then if all my photos with people in them are already all tagged in faces?

I would recomend taking a photo with your idevice's camera, then importing it to iphoto, and association it with a face, or mark it as a new face called something like "Uncatagorized".

Hope that helps 🙂

Apple just released iPhoto 9.1.3 which specifically addresses this issue. Check your Software Update NOW!

The new software update works! It's FINALLY fixed!

And, I want to thank everyone on this thread, too. It was very comforting to know others were facing the challenge, trying new ideas and solutions and sharing them. And, no doubt, the discussion brought the issue to Apple's attention as well. It makes you feel like you're not alone out here in techno-land. I really appreciate everyone's involvement and will head to the threads when other issues surface. Thank you!
