Theoretically the only limit to the number of photos that you can sync is the amount of storage capacity that you have left on the iPad for the photos. However, there have been a few users reporting that - for whatever reasons - their new iPads will not sync all of their photos - especially very large photo collections like what you have.


You should be able to sync all of your photos but what I would try is to just sync a portion of the photos at a time. I don't know how you have your photos arranged in your folder that you will sync from, but my advice would be start with a few albums at a time and see how it goes. Keep adding more albums with each subsequent sync.

jajajja! Thanks for the calculation!!! I know it´s a big collection. Obviously i don´t expect it happens (anyone to see them all, neither myself). They are bussines photos. I need them...actually, i need all the folders...but how to say to itunes to transfer some of the photos from each folder? With iphoto or Aperture, you can, just tagging them, but not in windows. (And this ipad will by synchronized in windows). Creating an exclusive folder would duplicate the images at the computer and would be a mess when add new ones...It´s much simple to transfer all of them as i have it in the pc. Don´t you think?

You made me laugh with your calculation...it was a great way to realize how may they are!
