Hi Maureeng54,
I understand you are unable to manually sync photos to your iOS devices via iTunes. Let's have you start with deleting the iPod Photo Cache and then attempt the sync again. Take a look at the article below for the location on this file. Doing this will not delete any photos from the location where they are stored.

You may also want to look into the iCloud Photo Library option as it will allow you to sync your photos over-the-air automatically. Take a look at the article below for more information.
