How do I put a photo on to my iPod Touch from iPhoto

On my Mac Mini, running SL OSX 10.6.8, is iPhoto '09 v. 8.1.2. and iTunes v. 11.0.2. I've got an old iPod Touch 16GB running v. 2.2.1.

I want to move a photo from iPhoto onto my iPod Touch, which used to be simple. However, now when I open iTunes, the photo option is no longer there, so how do I move a photo on to my iPod now?

So I need to go back to an older version of iTunes?

Mac Mini 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Logitech mouse, Apple wired keyboard, acer monitor

iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

Note you can only sync photos to the iPod from the one syncing computer you can have.

That last line should read, Do I need to go back to an older iTunes version?

I think I'll just email myself the photo instead. So much easier to do than to bother doing the other things.

Now, I just need to figure out if I can even move music to my iPod Touch from my iTunes.

The option does not exist and trying Crtl+S did nothing either.

Yes, I thought it was strange. I even rebooted my system and it still wasn't there. So, just going to email it to myself, then it'll be accessible anywhere I need it.

When you plug in the iPod open up Iphoto on your Mac and then in the left hand column under devices you should see your iPod. Click on this then you will see all the photos on your iPod. Click on the photos you want to transfer and Voila there you go.

Besides,there are some articles about iPod Photo Transfer, which can help you transfer pictures from iPhone.

For Mac:How to transfer photo/picture from iPod to Mac

For PC: How to transfer or copy photos from iPod to PC

No need for any other progs Hope this helps
