Photostream not syncing on windows 8 64 bit

I have tried everything I can think of to get the photostream synced. Signed in, signed out, signed back in, no good.  Uninstalled, reinstalled, no good. Deleted cache files, no good. My photostream folder will show 5 pictures most of the time, and the most I got it up to was 39. Please Helppppppppp!! Apple products are supposed to be seemless.

As of version 2.1 of iCloud Control Panel, it IS supposed to support Windows 8. It says so in this Apple Support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
That being said, there's obviously some issues with getting it to run on Windows 8. Since I made this post I eventually did get it working, but I tried SO MANY different troubleshooting steps trying to fix it, that I have no idea what it was that actually solved the problem.

  • Photostream Not Syncing With Windows 8.1

    Photostream hasn't synced with my Windows 8.1 pc since March 21st. I have working wi-fi, Photostream and My Cloud are both checked within iCloud options yet I'm not getting pictures on my pc.

    Not working for me either, for quite a few months (currently using iCloud 4.0.2).  I've tried all the documented remedies - reinstalling apple software / stopping iCloud processes / disabling photostream sync then re-enabling / etc., etc.  Sometimes after doing one of these, a few recent photos will appear in my photostream folder here on Windows 8.1, but then no further syncing happens.  It just appears to be completely broken, at least for me.

  • Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync

    Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync any suggestions?

    Try a low-tech solution.  Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
    Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle.  Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles!   (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).

  • I pods will not synce with windows 8.1?

    i pod nano will not synce using windows 8

    i dont get any message,  its just gets stuck while downloading, and will not finish.
    Many thanks.
    Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
    If you still can't get a working installer from the standard download page, try the following direct download links for 11.1.5.5:
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-02-25)
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-02-25)

    i have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing   wht to do???

    Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
    I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
    Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?

  • Photostream Not Syncing Win7? Fixed!

    If your windows based computer is no longer syncing with Photostream, its time to stop wasting time looking for a solution and look elsewhere like DropBox, etc..  Its become quite obvious over the last few months APPLE NO LONGER SUPPORTS or CARES about win users. Since last fall my updated Photostream fails to stay synced to any of my win7 pc's after trying about every solution posted. Some may work briefly, but they quickly die out........
    If this is some kind of marketing ploy to push me into buying a MAC, news flash, its having the opposite effect!!!!!!!!!! Even my Iphone loyalty is dying and the droids are looking better all the time. Have you had issues texting lately?????
    Taking about 300 pics/week, Photostream was the most productive and time saving cloud app I have. Not to mention the other cloud sync features (calendar) I have been using since MobileMe. After months of trying different solutions, I just gave up. Kinda like what Apple has done with Win users like me????? Switched to Dropbox for storing and syncing photos a few months back and so far, so good. Still like my old Photostream better when it used to work, but that's in the past now just as Apples quality image is.
    SHAME ON YOU APPLE!

  • Ipod 120G will not sync running Windows 7 64bit

    Since getting new Dell Inspiron i55 running Wiondows 7 64bit, my ipod will not sync. It stated but termianted without doing any transfer. Tried running iTunes in 32bit mode. Diagnostics
    Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Home Premium Edition (Build 7600)
    Dell Inc. Inspiron 580
    iTunes 10.2.0.34
    PodService 10.2.0.34 (x64) is currently running.
    iTunesHelper 10.2.0.34 is currently running.
    Apple Mobile Device service 3.3.0.0 is currently running.
    ** Device Sync Tests **
    No iPod, iPhone or iPad found
    despite clear interaction between pc and ipod.

    Your Inspiron 580 looks to have an Intel 5-series chipset (an H57 in your case). They can be a bit cranky on iPod/iPhone/iPad connections if they've got older BIOSes and chipsets.
    Try heading to your drivers and downloads page at Dell and making sure your BIOS and chipset drivers are up to date. (Now's probably a good time to update other componentry too if you're behind.)

    If you're behind, and you update, do you get better syncing performance from the Inspiron?

    Hi,
    You did not mention whether you tried creating a test admin user, that might be worth trying.
    You could trying uninstalling iTunes completely and then download fresh copy and use the 'right-click' then 'run as admin' approach to installing itunes.
    How to completely uninstall iTunes... http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305409
    You could try connecting the phone using forced recovery as described here... http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305797
    You do meet the requirements...
    Windows system requirements
    * PC with USB 2.0 port
    * Windows Vista Home Premium, Business, Enterprise, or Ultimate Edition; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
    * iTunes 7.5 or later
    Let me know if anything mentioned worked... Good Luck!

  • HT3798 Ipod Classic will not sync with windows 8 and newest itunes

    I have ipod classic, 160gb, with new computer with Windows 8 and latest version of Itunes - came from xp and previous version of itunes - and never had a syncing problem. 
    All my songs are in new itunes on new computer, however ipod will not sync.  Have received -50, and duplicate file name - I restored and it will go so far and then freeze.  Or  I get -53.  Have tried lots of suggestions discovered on pages like these... but none have worked.  I do see there is a problem with classic and new itunes - does anyone have any solutions??
    Thanks.....

    Well I finally figured out the problem, not thanks to anyone from Apple for that matter. You would asume this problem has happened before and is still happening. The problem was I couldn't copy certain songs anymore from iTunes to my iPod Classic. When trying to copy certain songs I got an error.
    If you have this problem it means your song file is corrupted. You can simply check this by trying to copy it from your hard drive to an external hard drive. Here you will also get an error message.
    This means you need to replace all the corrupted files by a back up on your hard drive or download it again. I did this and now everything works fine.
    Hope this will solve a lot of problems.

  • Centro & Treo 650 will not sync with Windows 7

    The 6.2 software will not work with windows 7. I have a new computer and can not get the phones to hot sync with my new computer. The Bluetooth does not recognize either of the phones. None of the other Bluetooth devices nor my car recognizes the phones. I do not have a data package with the phones so doing anything over the internet is out of the question. How do I get all the information that is on my two phones onto my computer?

    Try a low-tech solution.  Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
    Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle.  Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles!   (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).
