My photostream is not the same on all my devices. Is there a solution for having access to my photos on all my devices beside using a third party storage like dropbox to keep my photos from selfdestructing in 30 days?

Why can't I have all my photos saved in my photostream across devices?  It seems like on my iPad that my photostream is only the pictures from the last 30 days, sometimes I need to text out pictures from my iPad that are older than 30 days or have to use older photos for presentations etc. (I'm a teacher).  I have taken to uploading all my photos on dropbox so that I have access to all of them  on all my devices but is there a way of still doing this with iCloud without having to save your photos in some third party storage? This is awful.  I appreciate the return of the camera roll but a lot of times I don't have my phone with me in the classroom and need to be able to do all the things that I do on my phone on my iPad.  Also do not have enough storage to store the photos on my iPad.

Try looking at the iCloud Photo Library.

  • Content of photostream not the same on all devices?

    I have a iMac, iPad and an iPhone. All photos are added to iCloud with Photostream, but the content of the photostream on iCloud is not the same on all devices. I thought that the content would be synchronised. 487 photos on iPad, 529 Photos on iPhone and 596 Photos on iMac. Just now I have all devices turned on, connected to the same wifi, but no synchronising is taking place. How is this soposed to work?

    This usually happens because, while you can keep 1000 photo stream photos on your devices regardless of age, they only remain in iCloud for 30 days.  Photo stream photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server so depending on when you enabled my photo stream, you devices would have a different number of photos.  You can always add any missing photos to a shared stream on the device that has them in order to stream them to your other devices.

  • Why doesn't the rotate gesture on my trackpad behave as it used to for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?

    Why doesn't the rotate gesture on my trackpad behave as it used to for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?
    I changed the about:config to make the rotate gesture move between tabs, and it worked great for well over a year. Now it behaves erratically as described here:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=877598
    It used to be very controllable to move one tab over, now it is erratic and moves quickly and to unexpected tabs regardless of how slow I do the rotate gesture. This is the main reason I use Firefox over Chrome and I would like to continue to do so unless there is no fix to this.

    Just set the browser.gesture.twist.threshold to something around 15-25.

    Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea-  one place(stored date) for all application ??????

    Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

    Lightroom Mobile is not a cloud storage service. You shouldn't treat it as a way of backing up your files. You are merely storing Smart Previews of your files in the cloud space, high-quality JPEGs of your files regardless of their original format on your desktop. The point is that they are there so you can continue editing them in a Lightroom-like environment even while away from your desktop/laptop computer. The files in Lightroom Mobile can only be used in Lightroom Mobile.
    This is very different from what is offered by the Creative Cloud storage, which can be used to synchronize your files between any device (that can support the individual files).
    The vast difference in how each service works and its intended use is why they are separate.

  • When I try to buy ibooks from my ipad, the virtual keyboard is not the same as my computer, and so as my password consists of numbers, letters and symbols my ipad keeps showing that my password is incorrect! Is there any way around this problem please?

    When I try to buy ibooks from my ipad, the virtual keyboard is not the same as my computer keyboard, and since my password consists of letters, numbers and symbols, the ipad keeps displaying "incorrect password". Is there any way around this please anybody?

    Are you using the virtual keyboard to input your password and you cannot see/find the characters you need on that keyboard?
    Or are you trying to use a bluetooth keyboard and pressing the printed key does not produce the right character?

  • When syncing my iTunes to my iPad from the laptop, I get a list of missing songs; they are in the library, but not in the music folder on my HD. In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library - but two are missing from the folder.

    When syncing my iTunes to my iPad from the laptop, I get a list of missing songs; they are in the library, but not in the music folder on my HD. In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library, and all synced to the iPad - but the music from two of them are missing from the music folder. Questions are (a) where might they have gone? and (b) is there a way of "reverse loading" them back to my hard drive from the iPad? Thanks in advance!

    Hi dones49,
    It sounds like your issue here is that iTunes can not find the files for some of the songs you have brought into it. This happens occasionally even if the songs have not been moved from the location that iTunes places them on import or purchase. When you try to use the song, iTunes prompts you to find the file, as you have seen.
    To find the file, use the information in this article to navigate through the iTunes media folders -
    Locate and organize your iTunes files
    If you are still unable to locate the files, you may need to download them from the iTunes store again, or rip them from your CDs. See this article for assistance with downloading your past purchases -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Windows Firewall issue, Inbound rule opend all, still not the same as turning off

    This is Windows Firewall issue on Windows 8.1 Pro. 
    Backup Exec server cannot expand a computer node in selection list. I drill down to Microsoft Windows Network/Domain/Computers, then when I tried to expand a Windows 8.1 Pro computer node, it hangs out. 
    I narrowed this problem to Windows firewall related issue on Windows 8.1 Pro computer. 
    When I turn off Windows Firewall on Domain profile, Backup Exec Selection expands the computer node of the Windows 8.1 Pro computer. So, I created an inbound rule opening all to BAckup Exec server as following, but it's still not the same as turning off
    Windows firewall specifically on Windows 8.1 Pro computer;
    Any Local IP address, Any Remote IP address, Any port, Any protocol, All Interface, All Programs and Services, All profiles(Domain, Private, Public)
    And there are no rules blocking any which may override the above rule. 
    Ethernet on Windows 8.1 Pro computer shows profile is linked with Domain, but just to make it work, I selected all profiles.
    Even though I opened all available in inbound rule, it's still not the same as turning off windows firewall. Why am I missing? 

    It looks as something related to RPC(UDP 135), but even when inbound rule is all open, why it matters? RPC seems working fine only when firewall is turned off on domain profile. 
    Protocol 17 is UDP
    Port: 135

  • Safari (3.0.4) on Mac OS 10.4.11 has started quitting when viewing news and weather sites - not all sites, not the same sites every time.

    Safari (3.0.4) on Mac OS 10.4.11 has started quitting when viewing news and weather sites - not all sites, not the same sites every day. Help?

    Hi Gary...
    I see you are running v10.4.11 and you have updated Safari but make certain all the system software is up to date by clicking your Apple menu / Software Update.
    If everything is up to date, try resetting Safari from the menu bar.
    Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
    Restart your Mac. Launch Safari. Try several of the sites you mentioned.
    has started quitting
    If resetting didn't help, post a crash report.
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
    Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.

  • Can not make FF my default browser...When asked I get "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of FF". When this is done, it's the same thing all over again...

    Can not make FF my default browser...When asked to make, I get "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of FF". After restart, it's the same thing all over again. I have explorer & chrome installed on my PC.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == A few monts ago.

    It is probably because you are not properly closing Firefox. Restarting your system would make sure that Firefox had terminated, but you do not have to do that.
    To properly close Firefox on Windows systems, use
    :File > Exit or "Firefox:" button > Exit
    When you get the message "Firefox is already running" it is too late, and you must force termination of Firefox through the Windows Task Manager before restarting Firefox. Windows 7 has a keyboard shortcut to save you a step "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then on "Processes" tab, select "firefox.exe" and use the "End Process" button. More thorough would be to right-click on the "firefox.exec" and choose "End Process Tree".
    You would find firefox.exe in a Mozilla folder in your program files, but y0u would not want to delete it there, you would need to use the Control Panel which you have already identified and do it from there -- but generally you would not need to do that, and there is nothing in what you have posted to indicate that you should. But if you did do that, then don't let the install start Firefox for you as you would want to use you existing desktop icon or method of starting Firefox, and should decline having Firefox install start Firefox for you. When the install starts then invoke Firefox in your normal manner. This should eliminate problems of creating a new profile rather than using your old profile.
