  • My storage is mostly full of a category labeled "other." I'm out of memory to the extent that it won't even allow me to update apps. I have moved all photos over to my computer and my music streams through the cloud. Any advice on how to fix this problem?

  • TS2972 i can't find my SAG/AFTRA screener that i downloaded.  It is on my computer.  My photos are streamed to the AppleTv, but the TV says "you haven't purchased any movies"  it's considered a rental.

    i can't find my SAG/AFTRA screener that i downloaded.  It is on my computer.  My photos are streamed to the AppleTv, but the TV says "you haven't purchased any movies"  it's considered a rental.

    I am now having the same problem - I cannot find the SAG/AFTRA screener that I just redeemed - however, it is showing up as a rental on my itunes (on my PC).  But it is not showing up yet on my Apple TV.    It also has NOT yet finished downloading - so does that mean once the screener is done downloading entirely, then it will appear on my Apple TV?

    Hey Juergen119,
    I would recommend syncing your photos from your computer to your iPad by using iTunes:
    iTunes: Syncing photos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    First, if you want to set it up to work via iCloud, I would check and make sure My Photo Stream is set up correctly on your devices:
    To use My Photo Stream you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    For complete iCloud setup instructions, visit How to set up iCloud.
    Then, once it is set up, you can upload your photos to My Photo Stream by following these directions:
    PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

    Hi..
    Thanks for the reply..
    My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
    My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
    Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
    I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
    So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
    I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
    but it doesn't help me..

  • How can I recover photos that were deleted from Iphone.  Photos were streamed to icloud

  • Why i can`t see my all my photos the streaming in my new i-phone? i have 815 and i just can see 175

    Hello. do you know why i can`t see my all my photos the streaming in my new i-phone? i have 815 and i just can see 175

    Photo stream photos are only kept in photo stream for 30 days, although up to 1000 will remain on your device until you delete them.  When you connect a new device to your photo stream it will only receive photos added in the last 30 days as the earlier photos are no longer there.  Chances are, the missing photos were more than 30 days old.
    If the missing photos are on another device, you could create a shared photo stream including the missing photos and invite yourself, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99.  You would see then be able to access the photos on your new phone.  Another option is to import them to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then sync them to your new phone using iTunes.

  • I have more than one photo backup on my computer now itunes has downloaded three of each photo. How do I remove duplicates

    I have more than one photo backup on my computer now itunes has downloaded three of each photo. How do I remove duplicates?

    Wich version of iPhoto do you have? You need iPhoto '09 or '11 to order prints.
    Make an album of all photos you want to order in the same order.
    Then select all photos at once, when you use Share > order prints.
    You should see a panel like this, where you can mark the quantities. The screenshot is from iPhoto 9.6:

    hello how can i transfer photo for my old computer to the new one

    If your computers are connected to the same network, you can turn on Sharing to allow you to see the contents of one from the other and do transfers. If there is no network, you can use "target disk mode" explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13842
    Otherwise, you will need to use external storage such as a USB flash drive.

  • How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud?

    How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud? Thank you.

    Look, there are a million threads on this already. 
    The facts are:
    1) you can't delete individuals photos from Photostream. Simple as that.
    2) if you want to delete all the photos, then switch PS off on all your devices (including iPhoto), go to iCloud.com, click on your name, go to advanced settings and reset PS.  They will be gone from all your devices and iCloud.
    3) switch PS back on in all the same devices.
    Let's hope this is sorted out in the near future.

  • How do you share photos on the same computer between users???

    Hello,
    I would like to know how to share photos on the same computer between users...
    My wife and I have different user accounts on our iMac and I can't figure out how to share photos.
    I tried everything as told by Apple but it seems you can only share photos on your iMac with a network. If that is what I understand...
    I just want to have all the photos on my user account and when my wife is on her user account I want her to be able to view the photos.
    Again, we are only using one iMac.
    Thank you for your help in advance...

    For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
    (You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

  • How do I sync one photo from phone to computer?  Seems like this was easy on my Apple 1, but I can't figure it out with 3G.  I can only sync new photos-and get all of them.

    How do I sync one photo from my iPhone 3G to computer.  My only option is to sync all new photos.  Do I need iPhoto?

    Yes, you do need iPhoto, or at least for the following: Plug it into the computer with the USB plug you get with it, and iTunes will automatically open. It doesn't matter if you keep it open or not, because you'll import them to iPhoto. When you open iPhoto, it will automatically go to your iPhone's inventory of photos. Choose a photo that you wish to import (or click import all), type in the titile, and click import. A pop-up message will come up that asks if yu want to keep originals. Click yes, and viola. Your photos are on your computer! Hope this helps.
