Photo stream on iPad

Even with photo stream on photos are not showing up on my iPad. I'm running on OS 5.1

Did you check to see how many photos are currently in Photo Stream on www.icloud.com? It's possible that the 30 day restriction has caused all but 127 photos to be removed from Photo Stream. My understanding is that the additional photos will remain in the Photo Stream album on your device (such as the 295 photos on your phone), however until your turn off Photo Stream as you did on your iPad. At that point only the currently available photos would be streamed back to your iPad when Photo Stream is turned back on.

Deleted Photos from iPhone still show up in Photo Stream on iPad: iOS 6

Okay, I've done a lot of searching and can't find any solution for this. I'm on iOS 6 on all devices, so none of the iOS 5.x article / discussions apply.
I have my iPhone 5, my wife has an iPhone 4, we have an iMac, and an iPad 2. Here's the situation. We use iCloud and Photo Stream is enabled on all four devices, and all share a single Apple ID.
I have many photos (let's say 100) I've taken on my iPhone 5 over the last several months, and with Photo Stream enabled, they were automatically copied to all of my other devices. Great. Now, I'd like to delete let's say 20 of those photos. On my iPhone 5, I go to "My Photo Stream" and mark all 20 of them and delete them. I get the pop-up confirmation that they will be deleted from the Photo Stream on all my devices. Great, exactly what I want.
The photos delete from my iPhone 5, my wife's iPhone 4, and my iMac. However, they still appear on my iPad under Photos, Photo Stream, and under Events (September 2012 Photo Stream, October 2012 Photo Stream, November 2012 Photo Stream events). I can not delete them from my iPad.
I have tried:
1. Selecting each photo, there is no option to delete
2. Selecting edit, and then selecting a photo, the delete button is disabled
3. Disabling Photo Stream on my iPad, and rebooting. All photos in "My Photo Stream" on iPad are deleted, but not the photos that were sourced by other devices, they still appear under Photos, Photo Stream, and the monthly Photo Stream events
So... How do I delete these photos from my iPad?
Cheers,
Gouda

Okay, finally figured out what was going on. Positng the solution here in case it might help someone else with a similar problem.
Here's what was happening:
1. iPhone5/iPhone4/iPad/iMac all had iCloud + Photo Stream so Photos were shared
2. iMac was setup with iPhoto to automatically import and save Photo Stream photos
3. iPad was setup to wirelessly sync all albums from iPhoto
So, when photos were shared using Photo Stream to iMac, it would backup to an album in iPhoto, and sync to the iPad. Deleting the original photo on the iPhone would delete the photo from the Photo Stream on all devices, but it had already been added to a permanent album in iPhoto (e.g., "September 2012 Photo Stream"). This album was then automatically synced to the iPad. So, deleteing the photo from Photo Stream would clear it from the iPhones, but not the iPad.
To delete the photos:
1. Delete the photo from "My Photo Stream" in the source device (the device used to take the picture), this will delete it from the active Photo Stream on all devices
2. On the iMac, go into the automatically created monthly Photo Stream events, and delete the photos from there
3. In iTunes, initiate a Sync with the iPad, which will update the syncronized albums/events there, removing the photos on the iPad as well
Hope that's able to help someone in the future...
Cheers,

No. For Photo Stream you'll need iPhoto 9.4 or later. This Apple document gives the minimum system requirements for iCloud and Photo Stream: iCloud: System requirements

Hello there, missjanellez.
The following link from the online iCloud Help menu provides some practical information in regards to shared stream functionality:
Manage Subscribers to your shared streams.
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7bfa
On an iOS 7 device
In the Photos app, tap Shared at the bottom of the screen, then tap Streams at the top of the screen.
Tap the shared stream whose subscribers you want to manage, then tap People.The Activity stream doesn’t have subscribers.
Do any of the following:
To invite more people, tap Invite People, enter email addresses or tap the Add button to select from your contacts, then tap Add.
To remove a subscriber, tap the subscriber, then tap Remove Subscriber.
To choose whether subscribers can add photos and videos, tap Subscribers Can Post.
If the subscriber list doesn’t include Invite People, you don’t own the shared stream.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro

My Photo Stream on iPad and Apple TV

I have 84 photos in My Photo Stream on my iMac and was previously able to get all of them in my screensaver on Apple TV. After a recent upgrade I can only get 3 pictures on Apple TV. On my iPad there are 18 pictures. How can all of the pictures be synced to all of my devices?

Hi Felicia G,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below will explain how Photo Stream works.
Another way to organize photos is to make sure they are automatically added to your computer and use Home Sharing to see them on your Apple TV.
iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
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.
What happens to my photos if I turn off My Photo Stream?
If you sign out of iCloud or turn off My Photo Stream on an iOS device, all the images in My Photo Stream are removed from that device. The images in My Photo Stream on your other devices are not affected. Images added to My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days from the date you added them to My Photo Stream. If you sign in to iCloud with the same Apple ID and turn on My Photo Stream on another device, those photos will automatically download to this device. Before turning off My Photo Stream, it's a good idea to save any photos that you'd like to keep to your Camera Roll. Learn more about saving your photos to your Camera Roll.
How do I view My Photo Stream?
Apple TV: After signing in with your iCloud account, you can view your photos by choosing iCloud Photos or Photo Stream from the main menu (or selecting Internet > Photo Stream in Apple TV Software Update 5.0).
iTunes 11 for Mac: Play items in your iTunes library using Apple TV (2nd generation or later)
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12153?viewlocale=en_US
With Apple TV (2nd generation or later), you can stream content to your home theater system from your iTunes library, and the iTunes libraries of all the computers in your Home Sharing network. You can also stream digital photos stored on your computer.
Stream photos from your computer to Apple TV
Once Home Sharing is set up on your computer and on Apple TV, you can use iTunes to stream photos to your home theater system.
In iTunes, choose File > Home Sharing > Choose Photos to Share with Apple TV.
In the window that appears, select Share Photos From, and choose a source from the pop-up menu.
Choose “All photos, albums, events, and faces” or “Selected albums, events, and faces.”If you chose “Selected albums, events, and faces,” select the albums, events, and faces you want to stream.
Click Apply.
Hope this information helps ....

Deleting photo stream from iPad but not other devices

I created a photo stream last year to share pictures with my relatives. It shows up on my iMac, my wife's MBP and my iPad as well as the relatives computers and phones. Now another relative has created a stream for this year and it currently appears on all of those devices.
I would like to delete the old photo stream from just my iPad to free up some much needed space while leaving it on the other devices. I also want to keep receiving pictures in the new photo stream which appears to mean I cannot turn off iCloud. When I click edit and click on the X at the corner of the old photos stream, it says it is going to delete it from all devices.
How can I just delete the old one from just my iPad?

This is not possible as far as I know. The best option would be to save the photos from that photo stream to a computer using iPhoto or Aperture and then disband the photo stream (giving the other shared members plenty of notice so they can nab those photos to local storage as well).

Iphone 4 pictures moved to ipad via icloud Cannot delete picture in Photo Stream on Ipad

I have an iphone 4 which connects to icloud, I take pictures with the iphone, the icloud syncs the picture to my ipad in the Photo Stream tab on the ipad. I cannot delete picutres on the ipad photo stream tab. or my iphone (using photos) I don't know why the pictures I cannot delete. What can I do ?

You have to delete the photos using a Mac or PC at the iCloud.com website. It is a two step process.
1. Go to iCloud.com. Click on your Name (upper right), then Advanced, then Reset Photo Stream.
2. Go to your iPad/Settings/iCloud. Turn off PhotoStream. This will delete the photos on your iPad.
It is all or none. You can't selectively delete phots from your PhotoStream.

Shared photo streams on ipad 2

Hi everyone,
We've got to ipad 2's at home, one of them lets me use shared photo streams, and the other doesn't, rendering the service utterly useless. I have turned on photo streams on my device but I can't receive or make a stream.
Please Help!

There is also an option to turn on shared photo streams under settings-> iCloud -> photo streams.
Under settings -> photos & camera you will not see shared photo streams until turned on under iCloud.
This also surprised me when it was enabled on my iPad 2 but not my 3rd gen iPad.

Shared photo stream / Config iPad 1 and iPhone 4

I invite my sister to a photo stream. She has a iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1 and a iPhone 4 running iOS 6. With the first invite everything was well. She could see the stream on the iPhone. One week later I sent her a new stream. No notification on the iPhone. Since this time, I couldn't sent her invites. Is it possible that the iPad 1 block this? What could she do?

Found a solution.
Delete iCloud Account on iPad. Reinstall it. Then the shared Photostream runs on the iPhone. So simple.

No Shared Photo Streams on iPad 3 4G

Hi,
My iPad 3 64 GB 4G (LTE) does not have Shared Photo Streams.
My iPhone does, my iPad 2 does, and my wife's iPad 3 non 4G does.
Why ?
Sean

Hi Sean,
I think. Have a similar issue. I don't have a shared photostreams button at all in the settings that I can toggle on my iPad 2 16gb wifi. My iPhone does, my iPad 2 64gb 3G does and so does my wife's. it is strange. Is this what you had?
Cheers
Tim

Photo stream 2 ipads

I have an iPad 1 and an iPad 4, both registered to same Apple ID. The iPad 1 has 608 photos showing up in photo stream but they don't show up at all on iPad 4. Both have photo stream enabled, both are registered to me.
What am I missing? I went onto the icloud.com site but, unlike mobileme, there doesn't appear to be any way to view them.
Please help, and thanks in advance.

You can either:
Save the photo stream photos on your iPad 1 to the Camera Roll (which you do in iOS 5, as I recall, by opening the photo stream album, tap the arrow button, tap the photos you want to save, then tap Save), then import them to your computer (as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), put them in a folder on your computer, then sync them to your iPad 4 by connected it to iTunes, checking the folder containing the photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, then tapping Apply at the bottom and syncing; or
Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices.
