Do the iphoto iOS and iphoto imac sync both ways? meaning, for instance, if I make a change on iphoto iOS (e.g. move a pic from one album to another) does it refelct in iphoto iMac when synced?
Or is the sync just one way, i.e. from iMac to iOS device?
Thanks!

Greetings,
Images sync from Mac > to iOS.
If you edit your image on the iOS device you must then share the image to your camera roll and import it to your Mac as if it were a brand new image taken with your camera: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/1.0/#blnkee26bc1f
Hope that helps.

Hi,
Thank you for your kind help.
As a general discussion point, don't you find it clumsy that the sync goes only one way, mac>ios?
I would really like to have my iPhoto libraries synced across my devices: iMac, iPad (x2), iPhone.
Regards.

Yes, I would really like to have this too. You can send in product feedback and requests like this to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/. Perhaps if enough of us ask for fully sync-ing they will get that built sooner.
Hi,
I just sent my product feedback as you suggested. Good advice, thanks.

I've added this request as well. Current version is too clunky adn you end up with your hard work on changes only applied to lower res copy - you should have option for changes to apply to master file on mac.
Agree totally.
That's insane. I just spent an entire week of evenings sorting over 7000 photos on the iPad hoping to at least be able to delete the bad shots and duplicates I had painstakingly chosen and also sync across the other tags and image edits I'd applied only to find out that NOTHING syncs back to the mac and the dozen or so hours I spent was a complete waste of time.

At least your edits you can send back by saving the edited photos to iTunes, but there is no sync at all

It us a simple convenience tool to quickly publish and share edited photos on the web, while you have no access to your mac, but it is not (yet) a replacement for an advanced photo library and editor like iPhoto or Aperture on a mac.
