Upgraded my ipad to ios 6. The photos are displayed on the ipad by date taken. They are sorted via date modified. I do not like this. How can i get my photos sync on the ipad just the way I see them in iphoto on my MAC

I upgraded by ipad to IOS 6.0.

Now when I tried to sync my photos from itunes, the order of the photos is all messed up.

In IOS 5.0, my photos on ipad were sorted by date taken. With IOS 6.0, my photos on ipad are sorted by date modified. Is there some way that I can force it to go with date taken? I hate this new order.

The photos in iphoto show up the way I want to see them (date taken). How can I get this order on ipad and iphone?

iPad 2, iOS 6.0.1, Iphoto

@Terence. Your view is different than that of several Apple senior advisors who are focused on the the problem being related to iPhoto. Their reasoning probably stems from the fact that twice the issue occurred immediatley after an iPhoto update and if we create a new library everything works perfectly. The first instance was solved partially by resolving the ampersand issues i.e. photos appeared but they were no longer properly sorted rendering the program essentially useless. The current update prevents photos appearing on any device or even being recognized by iTunes.


Your advice is always appreciated but vague dismissals of the problem are not.

The problems reported here occurred right after updating to iOS according to the users as TD mentioned.


It's a compatibility problem between iPhoto and iOS6 that the only workaround would be to possibly batch change the date of the photos in iPhoto 😟. Therefore we'll have to wait for it to be fixed with either an iPhoto update or an iOS update, which ever Apple feels is the proper item to to be changed.


If they update iPhoto first (which is probably what they'll do) it'll be called an iPhoto problem.
