How to sync photos to your iPod Touch
Easy to Do
This tutorial is going to show you how to set up a picture folder for your iPod Touch/iPhone ready to sync with iTunes.
- First, create a folder in a specified location such as a folder in 'My Pictures' named something like 'iPod Photos'.
- If you want sub-folders e.g 'Zoo Trip', open up iPod Photos and create a new folder named 'Zoo Trip'.
- Next drag all the pictures you want into that folder, nothing needs to be done such as rotating, re-size and such, iTunes will renderize it for you.
>Although if you spend time cropping the pictures into a 320x480 image they turn out as a great portrait image on your iPod. - Connect your iPod to iTunes and select Photos on your device main page.
- Browse for the folder you created called 'iPod Photos'. Press OK.
- Click Selected folders or leave it as all photos. Your sub-folders should appear, if so, you are doing great so far.
- Once done, click apply or sync done to the bottom right. Let it load the images onto the iPod, after all this, you should now have sub-folders in your iPod photos.

does not work, u just have all photos in one big folder, but no sub folders
@ haha - Um, no offense but what generation were you born in? Go find some IT skills then come back, this DOES work.
Will doing this erase all of my app store purchases?
My iPod Touch is a pain. I can't sync any apps and when I sync or try to add photos it deletes the ones I already have. Oh and when I try to download apps from the iPod it says I need to update my software. My software is up to date. I've erased it and started over. I've used the 'revert' app. Nothing changes. I want to pitch it. Darn time waster. Any advice? thanks, sis
Read a post from Tapp and solved the photo issue. One down. Thanks Tapp!
Thanks, but how I get folders within folders?
like
IPod Photos
->zoo trip
->day 1
->day 2
Ah, you can't yet sorry. I have needed to do that too such as cars > Audi etc
When I try to sync my photo folder it shows that the folder is empty. I can open it on my computer and it is full, but when I open the folder in itune library it is empty. I tried adding folder to library and it still shows empty.
I was able to upload a photo once doing this, but I'm trying it now and the photos aren't showing up on my iPod.
Thanks-a-bunch!! This helped me tremedously.
