Not all photos in photostream

Hi, for some reason one or two photos every so often do not appear in my iphoto photo stream folder on my mac book pro and ipad from my iphone 5
Usually all is well but I just wondered if there is something I may have set up wrong and is there a way to "force" one to transfer if it has been missed ?
Many thanks
Tony

Not all photos on photostream sync to iPad

IPhoto says I have 197 photos in my photo stream. I recently had to delete my iCloud account on my iPad 2 because the notes were not syncing. When I added my iCloud account back only a few photos from the photostream synced back up. What can I do to have all photos on photostream sync back to my iPad?

iCloud only keeps photo stream photos from the last 30 days. Your backup would include your camera roll photos but they can only be accessed by restoring the backup to your device.

Not all photos in photostream are pushing

Hi, I thought I had everything set up properly. I have had pics build up in my photostream. As of right now, there are over 600. I am not sure I downloaded them all, but they are not appearing in the photostream folder in my computer. How do I get them to send them to my computer? Alternatively, how do I manually do it? My cloud storage is full--I guess bc of the photos, so I need to get them all downloaded and clear them out. And on that note, how do I clear them out? What I think happened is everytime I moved them from photostream folder I didn't clear them out of the photostream. Thanks!

Yes. Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for your devices to download them. When you enable it on a new device, it can only access photos that were added in the last 30 days.

Not all Photos in photostream are downloaded !!

I bought iPadAir yesterday and I activate the photostream where I have over 700 photos there. But only latest 9 photos are downloaded in my ipad when I took new pics with my iPhone still can see them in my ipad. Does the age of the photo make diff. Here?
Thanks

I can see all of the thumbnails in my library but when i click on photo it becomes an ! not all photos do this but wondering if there is a fix

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

IPhoto to Aperture 3 import - not all photos get imported...

Hello - My library is not huge, only about 8000 photos. Just bought Aperture 3 and imported my iPhoto library into A3. Seemed to go without issues. Today, as I re-organize a few folders, projects, etc., I realize that not all the photos were imported. About 700, to be exact. Every named Event in iPhoto imported over into A3, but not all photos within each Event (now Project). Any thoughts on what could have happened and how this could be avoided?
I could import each Event individually, but then I would loose all my keywords. Any work around you can think of? Thanks!

Try rebuild your iPhoto Library:

Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
I would import each event individually, but I would like my keywords preserved
Using the iPhoto Media Browser (File -> Import -> Show iPhoto Browser) will get your keywords too.

Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them. Report back with the results.

Not all photos in Event got synced

I found that not all photos in my events were synced into my iPhone recently, but it used to be ok.
I have already selected to sync "Selected albums......include ALL event" options in iTunes.
The event folder itself was synced but not all photo in the event get synced to iPhone, just some of them. Anyone got an idea on what happen ??
Thanks.
3Gs, 3.1.2
iTunes latest
MacOSX 10.6.2 on MacPro

Well...first a quick question, any reason why you have not updated to 10.6.2? Your profile indicates you haven't installed the combo update, which has a number of bug fixes. You might want to first repair permissions, then install the update, which can be obtained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL958. Once done, repair permissions again & check for any updates to iphoto, if that's what you're using.
Then, lets see if we can fix this mess. I'd suggest first removing ALL photos from your phone by un-checking the various albums or folders you have selected in itunes and hitting the APPLY button. Once you've confirmed that there are no photos on your phone, delete the photo cache on your computer, again, as described earlier. Then launch isync from your applications folder & under preferences select reset sync history. Once complete, reboot your computer, launch itunes, connect your phone, select what photo albums you want and hit apply.
Are any of these photos in a music slide show? If so, try disabling or removing the music BEFORE you try and sync them back.

Why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time. Some of them are afterwards available on fotostream others not

Hi,
why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time?
Some of these photos are afterwards available on fotostream others not.
Thx

If they are in photos view then they are in an event unless you have a corrupted library
How are you"merging" the photos?
most common issue is either bad sort (view menu ==> sort events) or bad camera dates
select one and show event to see the event

Not all of my Photostream photos show up in the iPhoto Library

I have my iPhone WiFi-enabled so that photos are usually uploaded automatically to my iMac before I sync. They show up in Photostream but not all the photos show up in the iPhoto Library. When I go to edit one in Photostream, it takes me to a copy in the Library, but that's the only way I can locate it in the library - the missing photos don't show up in either Events or Photos.
I'm concerned that I'm losing some shots as Photostream rotates thru the most recent 1000 pics.
I'm on recent Mac OS and iOS, and have had Photostream enabled for almost a year...

Check the sort options in the Events mode. Sort by Date - descending so the newest events will be at the top of the window. There's be a single event for each month titled like htis: Mar 2014 Photo Stream. All new photos added to the Photo Stream from your mobile devices in March will be imported into that event.
You can try the following to "jump start" the Photo Stream:
Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively.

How can I move some files (but not all) in the photostream folder on my PC to another folder on the PC?

I have photostream set up on my PC and all photos in both mine and shared photostreams are successfully being synced to my PC automatically. However, my goal is to navigate to the photostreams on my PC and be able to move them and edit the photos with other software I have. I'd like to move more one at a time as I have 100's. This would help me better sort them as well as free up some much needed space on my iCloud account as I don't need all these photos available at all times, but also don't want to lose them. Is there a way that I can do this? I really appreciate any help I can get.

Your my photo stream folder should operate the same way other folders do. First go to the iCloud control panel for Windows and click Options next to Photo Stream. Here, note you photo steam location (listed at the bottom). Navigate to the photo stream folder at that location, then open the my photo stream folder inside. Right-click on the my photo stream folder, select copy, navigate to a location of your choice, then right-click and select paste. Click on the copied folder, press your F2 key and rename it something like Photo Stream Backup. Then you should be all set.

ICloud Photo Library, some not all photos

Is there a way to set up to store some photos, or photo albums in iCloud but not all? Seems like it's all or none.

Yeah - I'm sticking with Photostream, and iPhoto right now. Once the new photo app is available across the board, and there is more literature on it, I will look into using the cloud, but I'm happy to keep it on my Mac. With the automatic import of Photostream photos, it really doesn't require a lot of work to keep photos on the Mac, and with a regular backup to TimeMachine, I'm comfortable that it is all backed up and safe....

TS3989 Not all photos transferring to computer via My Photo Stream

I have relied on My Photo Stream to get photos from my phone to my computer but recently they have not all been transferring. A couple pictures from yesterday transferred but others from last week did not. Why is this?

I am getting events for photostream months, but these don't include everything either.
Here's a basic scenario of what's happening. Let's say I have 5 photos (not videos) that I took on my iPhone. All of them get downloaded in the photostream category on iPhoto on my iMac. However, when I sync my iPhone, only 3 out of the 5 photos end up going into events. If I force import them to iPhoto, it asks if I want to replace the dupes, because they are in my photo stream.
I can't figure out what criteria is used to determine this- it really makes no sense to me.

2 Recovered folders appears and not all photos syncing

Using iPhoto 9.4.1 on my MacBook Air running Mountain Lion V10.8.2. Syncing with iPhone 4S 32GB on iOS6. Syncing with latest iTunes version.
When I choose to sync ALL photos with my iPhone in iTunes it tells me there are 18894 photos to sync. There are actually 18,923 photos in my iPhoto library. And then when it syncs to my iPhone only about half of those go on there.
When I choose to select SOME albums to sync, two folders are listed titled "Recovered Folder" only one of them has one item in it. These folders do not exist in my iPhoto library and never have. No idea where they have come from.
Also when I choose to select SOME albums to sync, another folder called LastNMonths also appears.
In the end all I want is all my photos on my iPhone. Same amount thats in my iPhoto album.
I have deleted the iPod Photo Cache. I have removed all photos. I have restored the iPhone many times.

IPhoto doesn't show all photos in photostream

Apple supposedly saves the last 1000 photos I take for 30 days. What if I only take 100 photos. Will all 100 photos stay in my Photostream indefinitely? OR, will they be deleted after 30 days?
On my iPhone I can see all photos I've taken in the last year in my Photostream, but in iPhoto only the last month or two show up and I can't find the rest. I'm confused.

Photos in the Photo Stream section of iPhoto are not imported into the library. Instead they reside in this folder on the hard drive:
After 30 days they will be removed from the Photo Stream and the hard drive. You need to select the photos in the Photo Stream window and drag then onto the Photos or Events icon in iPhoto to import them into the library so they are permanent.
