Photo Stream is not "synced" correctly with iPhoto

I have approximately 900  photos in IPhoto but only show 300  photos in Photo Stream. how do I "sync" this? Ultimately, what I am looking to do is have my entire library, all libraries visible to AppleTV. Please assist. Thx

I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
If you prefer to have only the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices, and delete the older photos:
If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (on a device using iOS 6, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream). Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
Repeat these steps for each device.

  • My iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 8.1 laptop or my Windows 7 PC.

    I have been going through the forums for the last few weeks and nothing has helped.  Both computers are x64 bit.
    Problems I am experiencing
    A. Windows 7 PC has not synced photo stream since September 25
    B. Windows 8.1 laptop has not synced since a little before that.
    C. I can't upload any photos (.jpegs) to the photo stream.  An error pops up saying that they cann't be uploaded as they are not in a format supported by iCloud, even though they are jpegs.
    D. Photos are syncing ti my ipad 3 perfectly fine, so clearly there is a problem with my computers but I am totally stumped.
    I have un-installed, deleted all icloud photo stream folders, restarted and then re-installed the iCloud control panel on both computers, and it has created new folders and re-synced maybe 30 photos before it stopped again.
    I have uninstalled every single Apple program on my Windows 8.1 laptop and reinstalled iTunes, iCloud and Quicktime and that didn't help.
    I have toggled the Photo Stream on/off button in setting on my iphone, and that seemed to kick start the sync on my Windows 7 PC this morning, so far I've got 70 photos on my Windows 7 PC and that's where it has stopped but its a really random selection, and doesn't include the photos I took yesterday or today.
    Two of my colleagues at work where my Windows 7 PC is located - their photo streams are working fine, both using ios7 and icloud control panel, however their computers are x32 bit.
    I have also simply logged out and signed in again multiple times, however that doesn't do anything.
    I have unticked the "read-Only" permissions on my photo icloud stream folder, but that didn't help either.
    I have followed the troubleshooting from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989 - however that also did not help.
    I have tried changing the folder path for iCloud photo stream, however that did not help either.
    I tried the steps from someone who said they spoke to an Apple rep (steps copied from forum and I put them in italic) on this forum: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5381738
    Anyway, the Apple rep had me sign out of iCloud CC on my PC.
    Then on each iOS devices Settings/iCloud/Delete Account.
    Confirmed all the warnings.
    Then re-entered my iCloud id and password on the iOS device.
    Things restarted and the iOS Photo Streams got loaded with the number of photos that
    iCloud has.
    Signed in on iCloud on the PC. It synced the same way.
    Tried taking pictures on the iPhone and iPad. They synced everywhere.
    So I'm back in business.
    I just deleted everything on my iOS devices when I exited iCloud.
    My interest is the PC syncing when I take a photo on my iPhone.
    ME: Okay so these steps again refreshed the photostream on my iPhone 5.  I can see that the photos I took yesterday and today have been uploaded to the photo stream as I can see them there on my device.  I have also now signed back into iCloud on my Windows 7 PC and it is slowly syncing again, but just recognising the same photos it downloaded previously as per Step 3 which I did just earlier this morning.
    I have also just tried uploading photos via the upload folder from my windows 7 PC, and they uploaded perfectly.
    This is really, really frustrating.  I've tried everything I can find on these forums but nothing has helped fix the issue 100%.
    Can anyone offer something else I can try to reslove this issue?

    Hi all.  I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • ITunes still not syncing correctly with iPhoto 9.4.3

    Since upgrading to version 9.4.x, iTunes hasn't been syncing correctly with iPhoto. There were duplicated events/albums, missing photos, photos not appearing in the same order on iOS devices as they do in iPhoto, etc.
    With each version upgrade since 9.4, this seems to have been improving bit by bit. I have just upgraded to 9.4.3, and now photos appear in the same order as they do in iPhoto. The only problem left for me, is that there are still photos missing in iTunes. Which photos that are missing seems to be completely random.
    I have tried rebuilding the library, which made matters a lot worse. Using 3rd party software like iPhoto library manager to rebuild the library didn't help either (iTunes syncing became a total mess, even more photos were missing afterwards).
    I hope by version 9.4.4, iTunes will read all info correctly from iPhoto again, as it did in version 9.3.2. Anyone else still experience problems?

    Sorry about that. Well, I've tried deleting the AlbumData.xml file as suggested also, but iPhoto itself generates a new file every time it's opened, so that's really a dead end. Rebuilding the library and through iPhoto Library Manager are the steps that required most work, and both did not work either, unfortunately.
    I do believe that I'm not the only experiencing iTunes syncing problem, as there have been many posts here before when 9.4 came out. Like I wrote, it has been better with each upgrade, so there's definitely something in the coding with 9.4.x that messes things up. I had no trouble whatsoever with version 9.3.2 and prior to that.

    Please share a comprehensive list of things you've already tried so we won't your time - and ours - making suggestions you already know won't work.
    Library size is not part of this issue. 12k photos is not a large library these days, I have one four times that size with no syncing issues.

  • IPhoto events not syncing correctly with iPhone

    Hello,
    Basically, my iPhoto events are not syncing correctly with my iPhone. Some events will sync, whereas others won't, though no error messages are ever displayed.
    I have all my photos, 961 photos in 34 events, organised in iPhoto, however iTunes doesn't seem to recognise all of these events, only reporting 881 photos. I've got iTunes set up to "Sync photos from iPhoto - All events" and this works for most events, but not all.
    On my iPhone, I can tell which events are missing, but no matter how many times I restart my Mac or sync my iPhone, it refuses to sync the few missing albums. There is over 4Gb of available space left on the iPhone, so this shouldn't be an issue.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Peter.

    Any ideas, please? I hope I explained my issue clearly enough.
    Thank you,
    Peter.

  • HT201317 why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    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.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Photo stream is not syncing

    I udated my phone to iOS6, now the photo's in my photo stream will not sync that are taken from my other devices.  Grrr...  anyone else have this problem?

    Same problem.  Also it says "40 out of 1800", but there weren't that many there to begin with.  Seems like the older ones have downloaded, but nothing else.  The message is continous since the update.

  • IPhone Calendar not syncing correctly with iCal since Lion-install

    Since installing Lion, the calendar on my iPhone is not syncing correctly:
    Events created on my iPhone don't show on my Mac
    Events edited on my iPhone don't change on my Mac
    Events that I created in iCal on my Mac, for test-purposes, and then deleted immediately, show up on the iPhone when syncing.
    Syncing through iTunes (not MobileMe).
    Using WeekCal on my iPone, but it seems that the same is the case with the "original" calendar-app.
    No similar experience prior to Lion-install.
    iPhone is iOS 4.3.4 -up to date
    Any ideas? Does anybody know how to reset the sync, for instance?

    Hi, my name is Lucas, i'm an Apple Certified Technitian.
    Last couple of weeks i've installed OSX Lion in a few Macs.
    But one of them drove me crazy!
    I have a Late 2007 White Macbook and i installed OSX Lion last week. I also have an iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) that i also updated to IOS 4.3.5 ... no problems syncing between them
    Then i did the same with a 13'' Unibody MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4 (not unlocked)... no problems neither
    Yesterday i installed Lion on a Mid2010 15" MacBook Pro and updated another iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) to IOS 4.3.5 and when i tried to sync the iphone with iTunes 10.4 nothing happened.
    I mean, nothing.. the iTunes started syncing and when it gets to sync the calendars it stayied there forever.
    I left it for hours and nothing.
    As i said i'm an ACT so i tried everything.
    1- Remove Calendars from iPhone and syncing again
    1- Repair Permittions
    2- Reinstall iTunes
    3- Reset iTunes and iCal Preferences and Caches
    4- Backup iCal - erase ical content and generate a new iCal database
    5- Reset Syncing Prefs and logs
    6- Use DiskWarrior from an external OSX
    7- Reset PRAM
    Nothing worked.
    I thought it could be some conflict with Microsoft Outlook and/or Exchange server since this Mac is the only one of the three macs i installed that uses Outlook Sync and Exchange server and it's the only one that gave me trouble.
    But disableing it didn't worked neither.
    THE SOLUTION
    I Already solved this thing out. But i still don't understand the logic of all this... anyway, what y did is this:
    1- turn off microsoft outlook sync with iCal (from outlook preferences)
    2- Backed up iCals (Just in case)
    3- Create a new Calendar Category (by default you have Work and Home... i created one called Test)
    4- i Created a new task at that calendar
    5- In iTunes uncheck the "Sync iCal" box and sync the iPhone
    6- Check th "Sync iCal" box, then check the "sync the selected calendars" box
    7- Check the "Test" calendar and sync the iPhone.
    This worked so i started creating task in this Test Calendar both in iphone and mac, just to test it, Worked fine.
    Then i selected all the other calendars (Home - Work - etc) and i turned on the outlook sync
    Then i synced the iPhone and Voilà everything is working again.
    Now i can create task in outlook calendar and when y sync the iphone it appears on it.
    I don't know what the problem is... but this looks like the solution
    HOpe it works for you!

  • Itunes not syncing correctly with my ipod

    So i was downloading this new album to my ipod and when i synced it, i made sure to see if it was fine on my ipod
    there were these 3 songs that belonged in the album but were isolated in their own album.
    It either only showed the album name or just the artists name
    i tried to fix it but now i lost an album from the album category and its left as Unknown Album but on my itunes the songs are all where they are supposed to be and is fine.
    This has happened to me with other albums but after 2 hours you obviously have to give up
    Is there something wrong with my itunes or is it my ipod thats not syncing correctly?
    And also i wanted to know if i can write a review on the whole itunes program because honestly, it is so difficult and all i'm trying to do is download music.

    I looked through some older threads on this subject and, while bunches of people seem to have had this problem, I did not find a solution thta works for me. Also, for what it's worth, the last time the "number of plays" and "date last played" updated was 12/5/13. The only significant thing I can remember that happened on my computer around that time was some Windows updates on 12/11/13. I have no idea if that can affect iTunes or not. Looking at some of the other threads, some people had this problem on Apple computers, so I guess Windows updates could not have affected them.

  • IPad does not sync correctly with iTunes

    Hey, I have a problem and would appreciate some help.
    I have all my music library on itunes on my macbook (including some albums that I have created as compilations by collating multiple albums and for which I have edited the album cover photo ie selected a photo of my own). Some of the songs have been entered in my library by cds that I had and the rest by being purchased directly from itunes.
    When I sync my itunes library with my ipods all is well and the albums, artists, playlists etc sync exactly the same (that is covers, tracks, order etc remain as shown on my library).
    When I sync with my iphone 5S or my ipad air then I get strange... Some albums show correclty, others have a different cover photo - not the one that I have selected and edited on itunes -  some have the tracks doubled or even the entire albums doubled, etc...
    Although I have tried to solve this on my own, i have not managed yet...
    BTW both my devices (iphone and ipad) sync automatically with icloud and so I only connect them to my macbook in order to sync the music. Maybe this is the problem?? Is there any way to have icloud NOT sync music with the devices?
    On my macbook I have tried the ioption 'manage music manually' and then selecting the albums on my own but i get the same strange results.
    Any ideas?
    I even tried to erase all the music from my ipad/iphone (by selecting 'manage music manually' and then not selecting any of the albums or tracks in my library) but the music, at least part of it remains there... basically only the songs or albums purchased from itunes showing the icloud download icon next to them.
    Any sugestions on how to solve this issue?
    THX for your help,
    Dimitris

    Scrap that, it seems to have self remedied

  • My photo stream will not sync with window 7 computer

    So frustrating!

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane on your Mac:
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • Ipod does not sync correctly with ITunes

    Hello, and thanks in adavce for responding.
    A couple days ago I connected my Ipod to a different PC with an older version of Itunes. I did not asociate the library nor synchronized the Ipod with it. When I connected my Ipod in my main PC where I keep my library, it seems as if it does not sync all my files correctly. For example, I have some TV shows in my library but they don't seem to transfer into my Ipod, when they used to before. I have the same problem with the photos. I have re-set my Ipod to factory settings a copule of times with different results. The first time, the photo's would not appear, and the second time, the TV shows did not. Furthermore, my ITunes library does not show photos anymore, but they do appear in the Ipod. It seems as if the Ipod is confused with ITunes, but I honestly don't know what to do. Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    formatting the ipod resolved the problem for me, and also on a friends ipod with the same problem (160GB version)

  • Photo Stream is not syncing all of my photos on my Iphone 4.  I've checked all of my settings and they are all turned on, ready to go.  Can anyone tell me why it would randomly miss a few photos please?

    HELP!!  I have been to several tech support sites and have checked all of the settings for my Iphone 4, which appear to be on the correct "on" position HOWEVER when syncing with Icloud/Itunes via my Windows PC (windows 7) the Photo Stream comes up short 4 or 5 photos.  There are only 116 photos installed (plus 4 videos).  Would someone kindly tell me what's wrong and what I need to do to correct his?  PLEASE? This is driving me crazy & of course the photos that it aren't syncing are the important ones! THANK YOU!!!

    WOW! That font is difficult to read. But, see if this support document helps you http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989. Photos stream is based on date and photos more than 30 days old are removed. Photostream is designed as a temporary storage to allow you to download the photos to the computer.

    What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what exactly is happening? What have you tried to resolve this? How long have you waited for them to downad? have you looked at http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/photo-stream/ and verified tha tyour set up is correct and looked through the FAQs and troubleshooting tips?

  • Photo stream does not sync mac OSX mavericks

    I have macbook air running mavericks 10.9.2 and when I setup photostream it only synced back for about 2 months, want it to collect all prior photostream photos from my iphone/ipad.  It has stayed just the 2 months data for a few days now so convinced it will never update.  any way to force the update?  May be a bug.  Thoughts?
    Also, it seems that the photostream may have been locking up my wifi connection.  After disabling photostream it is working again but with some hangups, but not as percistant as it was before.  Thoughts?

    Trouble With Syncing Mac Photo Stream to iPhone
    iMac & iPhone photos don't sync

  • Photo Stream is not synced on all my devices.

    Hi. I was doing some cleaning of my photo stream by deleting some photos, so I noticed that not all pictures are on all my devices. On my Mac, after the cleanup, my photo stream has 786 photos and on my iPhone the photo stream has 633, on the iPad there are only 360 photos and on the AppleTV about 600. The latest photos do appear on all devices, the older ones are the ones that do not appear on all of the devices. Any idea how I could force sync the photos so that they do appear on all my devices? Thanks!
