HT201317 The photo stream flower icon is not showing up on my icloud account?! Why?

The photo stream flower icon is not showing up on my icloud account.  The only icons are Mail, contacts, calendar and iwrok.  What can I do??

Basically Apple actually took away the Gallery capability we used to have with me.com when they replaced it with Photo Stream. So there is no way to see on the web, nor send a URL to friends to share the pictures like you used to be able to do with Gallery. To do that, you will need to push those photos to an external service such as Snapfish or Flickr or a social media site.

  • I have enabled iCloud on my iPhone. In case i delete the photos from my phone would they still be on my iCloud account or will it sync and delete it on iCloud as well?

    Hello lonestar17,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you are curious about how iCloud stores your photos.  Photo Stream stores your photos temporarily so that you can have time to sync them to your computer, but the photos will expire after 30 days:
    Does using My Photo Stream substitute for using iCloud Backup or iTunes to back up the photos in my Camera Roll ?
    No. Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days. To save or back up these photos, you must copy them from My Photo Stream to your Camera Roll on your iOS device. You can then back up your Camera Roll using iCloud or iTunes.
    How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
    How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .

  • HT201317 the photo stream on my iphone has 1000 pics - yet it only 106 have pushed to my pc. what am i doing wrong?

    I have 1000 photos in my photo stream on my ipad2 and I downloaded the control panel to my pc. I set up photo stream for auto download (push) and only 106 have pushed.  I tried restarting the pc, signing out and back in of control panel, resetting my internet explorer and connect/reconnect network.  Still, no new photos pushed.  How can I possibly get all the photos off my ipad2?  I have run out of icloud storage and it won't backup . . .  Thank You for any assistance.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • HT201317 The photo stream on my PC laptop

    The photo stream folder on my laptop has stopped, or in only intermittently updating.  It also appears that older photos seem to have been deleted.  I checked the folder size and it's 1GB.  Is that the limit or is there some other problem?  Help!

    Photostream is not synching, but streaming service. It allows you to stream pictures to other devices including your pc. Once picture is streamed, your personal arrangements do not affect any device, but that one, and there is no follow ups sync.

  • HT201317 "This photo stream is no longer shared"...but it IS.  why is this happening/

    "This photo stream is no longer shared."  ...but it IS shared.  Why is this happening?

    We're you able to get a solution to this?

  • I create a shared Photo Stream on my iPhone, but my iPad (on same iCloud account) can't see it.

    Any way to "host" a stream from two devices?

    Then it should only be deleted from your phone.
    If anything should go wrong, the owner can re-invite you as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmb700ea29).

  • TS4036 How do I get photo albums to upload to new phone, only the photo stream is crossing over?

    I have an iphone that has over 3000 photos on it. I bought a new iphone and want to get the pictures from all my albulms on the old phone to this new phone. All my pictures were wiped out of my computer and cannot restore to new iphone. I am relying on icloud and itunes but have not been able to get them to upload all albums, just the photo stream. I do not want to lose all my pictures.

    If you want to transfer all your data and settings from your old phone to your new one, follow this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.  If you only want to transfer photos, photos from the camera roll can be imported to your computer using usb: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  You can save your photo stream photos to your camera roll so they can also be imported this way by opening your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you need to transfer photos in the photo library album, you'll have to use an app like PhotoSync.  This will transfer photos from any album on your phone to your computer over wifi.  With that many photos, it's probably the easiest way to go for all your photos.

  • How to delete the photo stream filder

    How can I delete or remove the photo stream folder ?????

    After uninstalling iCloud each time I launch iTunes Apple asks if I want to install iCloud now or later with no choice to Do Not Install And Remember This Answer.
    As a follow up to this thread, check out

    Although, as of today, Apple has not reponded with a fix.

  • My phone is not showing me that I have voicemails, I have to check it everyday to see if I have voicemail & the icon is not showing up

    I have a lg revere cell phone & I'm having problems not getting my voicemails. The voicemail icon is not showing up & would like to know why it's not showing up on my screen. Please need help getting the voicemail icon to come on everytime I get a voicemail

    Good morning craneclan2 and thisisbananas.
    I'm sorry the Voice Mail indicator isn't working for you.  I can only imagine how inconvenient it can be not to know you may have an important or urgent message.  Do you both use the default Voice Mail feature, or a different Voice Mail app?  (Or Visual Voice Mail?)  If the default app, we can try removing the voice mail feature, and then re-adding it.  If another app, you can remove it manually, and then try default VZW voice mail.  You can also try placing phone(s) in Safe Mode to see if a 3rd party app could be causing the indicator not to appear. 
    Razr Maxx- Safe Mode
    Revolution- Safe Mode
    If the Message Waiting Notification still does not work, please follow me and send me a Direct Message, and I will be happy to personally assist you.
    Thank you,

  • HT201317 iphone not my photos are appearing in the photo stream and it's all enabled what problem?

    iphone not my photos are appearing in the photo stream and it's all enabled what problem?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.

  • Is there a way to delete photos from Photo Stream on my macbook pro? (Not from my folders,etc.) I need to empty the photo stream. Something in my photo stream has corrupted my phone and my apple specialist suggested I do this.

    Is there a way to delete the photos in Photo Stream on my mackbook pro notebook?
    My phone became corrupted today and, after continuing to have problems with 2 new phones, the apple specialists determined that the only possible explanation was the presence of a corrupted photo or video in photo stream; and that the only way to use my phone without it shutting down was to deactivate the photo stream on it.  It worked, but I would like to be able to have the option of using photostream again. The apple folks suggested that I delete all photos from photo stream on my computer; and then, when it is "empty", reactivate it on my phone? Is anyone familiar with this problem?

    If it says Not Enough Storage Space on iCloud then you can get more Storage space for iCloud if you want to backup more Data on iCloud Storage. You will find the Pricing for Additional Storage Space and how to Buy Storage Space for iCloud from your Device in the Link below.

  • How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

  • The message icon is not showing in the drop screen of my photos it used to show before and now it's not there how can I get it back?

    The message icon is not showing in the drop screen of my photos where it says do you want to email, message, assign, use as waller paper etc. it used to show before and now it's not there how can I get it back?

    Did this back along to mine. Plug it into itunes on your pc (or Mac) and click on the ipod icon on the left hand side. When the device options come up on the main screen, click on restore. Follow the steps and it should restore to factory settings. If you had icloud activated on the ipod all previous purchases should be in the cloud and ready to download onto the ipod afte rit has been restored to factory settings, otherwise you'll have to download them all again. Hope it helped.

  • In my itunes tab is images / photo disappeared. . can not get it back, so now I can not get pictures on my iphone??? I do not want to use the photo stream. there are others who have experienced this tab disappears

    Make the iTunes window wider.
    It is on the far right.

  • When I create a photo stream in ios6, everyone who is logged in to my iCloud account can see and edit my stream (on their iPhones only). Not just the email addressees that I sent the photo stream link to. Is that how photo stream security is meant to work

    When I create a photo stream in ios6, everyone who is logged in to my iCloud account can see and edit my stream (on their iPhones only). Not just the email addressees that I sent the photo stream link to. Is that how photo stream security is meant to work? Is so it means my whole family can see any photo stream I set up. Hence no security? Can't share the pics with the wife then :(

    The whole idea to an icloud account is that one user uses it and has all their devices synced together.  Different users need different Apple IDs to create their own icloud accounts.  Note that everyone can still use the same ID for an iTunes account (to share purchases).
