Videos not appearing in my Apple TV library after activating iCloud photo library

Hi
Ive activated iCloud photo library on all my devices (other than mac).  All seems to be syncing and playing correctly on my iPhone, iPad and iCloud.com however, when I view on my Apple TV none of the videos show in the list.  Ive updated the software to the latest version.
Am I doing something wrong perhaps?!
thanks for any help on the matter!
Nick

I'm not a 100% sure.
I had som many duplicates after my import to Photo (from iPhoto), and while some were zombie files, and others because I had screwed a little with my iPhoto package. But when I imported I did have several albums shared, and they were all duplicated.
I unshared all my albums, and I'm currently working on cleaning up my library before sharing again (so I have a good base to start from).
Here is what I think might be happening (or at least hope, otherwise it's a big bug): When you share an album... as far as iCloud is concerned, they are probably treated as separate items in the cloud. Which means Photos is creating a copy. I have the feeling that if you delete the original in your library, the copy you have shared will remain.
But the thing that probably shouldn't happen, is that Years/Collections/Moments is displaying both the master version you had originally, and the version that is shared.
Remember... these are only my thoughts, since I'm not at the point of testing this yet.

  • ICloud Photos Disappeared after enabling iCloud Photo Library

    Hi,
    I have quite a complicated problem.
    About two weeks ago I bought a new iPhone 5S (now running iOS 8), to replace my ageing iPhone 5.
    All my photos were backed up on the iPhone 5, and then restored onto my 5S.
    Recently, when I enabled iCloud photo library (Beta) on my 5S, all of my photos from a period of time (January to October this year) became grey thumbnails on my iPhone. When I looked at an individual photo, a message: 'loading' was where the photo should have been.
    The loss of all of these photos is seriously troubling for me, and anyone who can give me a solution to this problem will receive huge respect from me.

    Hi goblue123,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that some of your older photos appear to have been removed from your iPhone after turning on iCloud Photo Library beta. Please read over the attached article for why this may have happened. If the photos are still on your computer, you can sync them back to your iPhone. 
    iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    What if some of my photos are missing after I turn on iCloud Photo Library?
    iCloud Photo Library won't upload lower resolution photos and videos synced to your device from iTunes. You can use these steps to move the photos from your computer to your iOS device.

  • London pictures disappear after enable iCloud Photo Library. It is any kind of problem with UK? =)

    I have about 1000 pictures in my iPhone. (About 900 from Brazil, took with my Brazilian SimCard).
    Last year, I went to  London and took about 50 pictures there. In that time, my iPhone was a 4S, with iOS7. (With a UK Number from a UK SimCard, don't know if this is relevant).
    2 Months after, I went to US and purchased a 5s. Took about 50 pictures too, (With a US number, from a US card).
    Today, I did the update to iOS 8.1, but when I enabled the iCloud Photo Library, all pictures from London just disappear.
    Before iOS 8, we had something like that in iOS 7 ( I guess it was iCloud sync), and every time I do enable this thing, all pictures from London disappear. I have to restore my backup and let the feature off to have my pictures.
    Anyone have any hint about why this is happen, or how to solve this thing?

    Well by luck I figured out.
    Restored the backup that I had with all pictures.
    Went to the photo Library and selected the photos that disappear.
    By some reason, don't know why, a "save" option appeared to me. I clicked in save (don't know from where to where), and when I turned on the  Library sync again. Tandam!! The photos didn't disappeared.
    Anyone know how to explain this?

  • Icloud photo library on windows pc not syncing

    I have an iPhone 6 and activated iCloud Photo Library.  I downloaded and installed iCloud for Windows on two different PCs.   Neither of those PCs have all of the photos in their iCloud Photo Library that are on my phone.   There are 316 pictures on the phone, while one PC has 110 photos and the other has 151 photos.  The most recent photos on the PCs are from March 28th, which is about 3 weeks ago.   Obviously the syncing is "stuck" but I haven't been able to unstick it. I have tried turning off iCloud Photo Library in the iCloud control panel on the PC and then turning it back on.   that doesn't help.

  • ICloud Photo Library (beta) - how does it work?

    8.0.2 has an option to enable iCloud Photo Library (beta), I am trying to understand how it works before I turn it on...
    The description says it will auto-upload the entire iPhoto Library to iCloud so other devices that can access these photos by using the same Apple ID. It also has sub-option to keep original photo or keep optimized photo on the device. So questions:
    1. This feature seems to do what Photo Stream does, will new taken photos be auto-sent to iCloud and Photo Stream?
    2. Does iCloud Photo Library count iCloud storage?
    3. Those albums synced with iTunes, will they be uploaded to iCloud Photo Library, and no longer sync with iTunes? Will they be deleted from devices? Will the iTunes Photo Sync selections be disabled?
    4. Here "iPhoto Library" refers to the photo library on devices only, or it includes the Photo Library on computer? My Mac iPhoto/Aperture also signs in the same Apple ID, will those photos on my Mac be auto-uploaded to iCloud?
    5. Presently I sync selected photos to devices via iTunes, if iTunes Sync is disabled after enabled iCloud Photo Library, how can I send selected photos to devices?
    Thanks

    2-factor authentication sounds good but what if in the cloud sends your photos to someone else's account?
    yeah I know sounds like someone with no idea about how these things work, well please read on.

    Using iPad Mini / iPhone 4S
    I have just recently enabled the iCloud Photo Library (Beta). I also use MS Onedrive and i have it setup to automatically backup all my photos and      videos from both my iOS devices.
    Today i opened Onedrive for no particular reason and clicked on the Photos tab, this shows the progress of photos being backed up, only this time i      scrolled down to find that there was hundreds of photos from different families mixed in with mine dating back to 2002! Naturally the first thing i am      thinking is who is looking at my photos/files. What is going on!!!!
    Let me just assure anyone reading this, that the owner of these photographs would not appreciate anyone else having them, these are Kindergarten,      public school and family photos of complete strangers. and all my photos are mixed in between them.
    Is anyone else having this issue

  • ICloud Photo Library basics

    TL;DR - how do you populate iCloud Photo Library with pictures if it forces you to delete them before you even get started??
    I have an iPhone and iPad (both on 8.1) and Macbook Pro (10.10 Yosemite). Both iOS devices sync with iTunes for the last 12 months of pictures - just to keep it from overwhelming the capacity.
    Today I thought I would try out the new iCloud Photo Library. So, I bought into the 500GB limit for iCloud (thinking it will eventually be my pictures and videos), and went to set it up.
    First, I went to Settings on my phone and turned it on. It immediately wanted to delete all my pictures, saying it could not be sync'ed with iTunes if I am going to use iCloud Photo Library. So, I went back to my computer, ensured I had all the pictures on my computer already, turned off sync'ing in iTunes for pictures, and deleted all the pictures from the phone (I left Photo Stream on, since it works independently. I confirmed that all albums were empty (all albums were deleted except for All Photos, Recently Deleted, Tagged on Facebook, and Instagram).
    After turning iCloud Photo Library back on, I took a picture. I then logged on to beta.icloud.com and there it is. I went through the same process for my iPad and it worked, too. So far so good - basic functionality is working.
    BUT - I have 23,000 pictures (about 50GB for the originals) in iPhoto and 100GB of home movies in iMovie. If I'm not sync'ing with iTunes, the only pictures in the iCloud Photo Library are the ones that I take from this point forward. That seems pretty worthless, although I understand it's in beta and the Mac software should completely transform this process - in 3-5 months?
    So, I tried turning on Sync'ing with iTunes and selected just one file; then turn it off and select "keep photos on iPhone". Still, the Settings on the phone said it had to delete the photos because "it can't be sync'ed with iTunes" - even though it wasn't being synced. Same experience on iPad (i tried it on both devices in case there was just a glitch).
    Next, I tried to put the images on the phone manually, without iTunes. Having never done that, it took me quite awhile to figure out that you need third party utilities. Even in my Fusion VM, the drive letter from the phone is read only. So, I bought a $3 photo transfer program. Using that, I moved a single picture over to the phone. When I went to the iCloud beta site, and to the iPad, the picture was not there. I rebooted the devices, still not there. I took pictures on the devices, they appeared everywhere. But that one picture that was moved manually never appears.
    If anyone has any ideas how to get all my content over to one of the iOS devices to be sync'able, and not trigger the delete function, please let me know.
    Thanks!

  • ICloud Photo Library with automatic photo upload services such as Dropbox and Google

    After enabling iCloud Photo Library in iOS 8, do automatic photo upload services such as Dropbox and Google+ still upload photos in full resolution?
    Or do they upload the low resolution file?

    About iCloud Photos Library Beta, it is yet more a preview than a beta
    Do not rely on it to store full res Photos/Videos even if you have a 200GB iCloud Store
    Major Bugs (according to help description of fonctionality):
    -only IOS8 Photos manually edited are uploaded full res from IOS ! If you do not edit you get low res photos in iCloud Library
    -uploaded 1080p videos from IOS are converted to 720p 5mb/s as in existing Photo Sharing and not originals.
    -No upload button in web iCloud photo Client on MAC for many (all?) users
    Also very slow and very often stuck doing nothing.
    I am afraid we would have to wait for next year... or later
    What is unbelievable is that there are no information at all by Apple about what should word on the beta, and known problems, nor any release date, that is definitely not a beta, just powerpoint preview. I am very angry after all the fuss they have done around "new" iCloud and my 200GB monthly payment that I cannot use.

  • Mac storage full during upload to iCloud Photo Library

    MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013)
    1.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB
    OS X 10.10.3
    I'm uploading my Photos Library to the iCloud Photo Library because I don't have enough space left in my Mac (around 7 GB left).
    When I started uploading, it went down to 3 GB, and now stopped uploading because Photos is telling me that "Your Mac Storage is full. This Mac is no longer updating because there is not enough space to store optimized versions of your photos and videos."
    I don't understand why it's taking up space when it's supposed to minimize space taken by my library.
    I have upgraded my iCloud Storage to 200GB, so there should be no problem with that (iPhoto Library is only ~120GB)
    Would appreciate any help!

    Hey benjfromlewes. Thanks for helping out!
    Something pretty neat seems to happening when Photos creates its library from iPhotos because my machine didn't have anything like enough storage to achieve this (I had about 15 Gig free, and my iPhotos library was about 100 Gig). I suspect that it Photos probably shares the images files with iPhoto in some way, but I don't know. Anyway – removing the iPhoto library did still fee up lots of space for me.
    I was thinking about deleting the old iPhoto Library, but then (like what you think) it seems that Photos and iPhoto are sharing files, even though they're separate. Because I only had 7 GB left when I updated to Photos and that created ~100 GB library, so it's impossible that I have an invisible extension.
    I can't wait to delete it though, but I think I'll wait until after uploading everything to the cloud--just to be extra sure.
    I'm don't know why Photos increases its storage requirement during the upload phase. Perhaps it has to keep all the original images locally until they are all uploaded, rather than removing the high quality images as it goes along. I've decided to keep the high resolution images locally anyway now: they're useful for printing and such.
    It's working again now, I deleted some movies and restarted. This increased my space to 5.5 GB. I've been monitoring it since and noticed that Photos brought it down to 4 GB, going up and down slightly from there. But it hasn't stopped since. Hoping it'll continue on like this and not require any more space.

  • ICloud Photo Library question IOS 8.0.2

    Hi,
    I have updated IOS to 8.0.2. Now I have an option to turn iCloud Photo Library ON. Correct me if I am wrong, this allows me that every photo or video is automatically uploaded on iCloud... Right? What I want to know is, if this uploading is done only when connected on WiFi, or also when on cellular connection?
    Thanks for help!
    BTW: Does anyone know where are these photos or videos stored on iCloud? How to get to them on iCloud? These new Photos features with iCloud and syncing are so messy...

    Thank you AxeMan1020! This information helps me, as well.
    I am writing to see if perhaps photo streams and shared photos might solve which photo solution (My Photo Stream Vs iPhoto Library) to use when where and why, assisting nikoo_80 - and myself...

    Just a few warnings, iCloud Photo Library is still in beta so I suggest before turning it on you backup your photos.
    Also, once it is enabled, you will no longer be able to sync photos via iTunes and any photos currently on the device that were synced via iTunes will be removed.
    By using Photo Streams and shared / auto upload (My Photo Stream) that was also in iOS7, I notice that all of the photos I took, when enabling automatic upload to all my devices, every photo I took was uploaded to iCloud and distributed to iPads and Mac computers, restricted to WiFi only.
    When I delete a specific photo, that photo would remain on another device. Removing the share / auto-upload (disabling My Photo Stream) on the phone was able to remove the photos shared from the iPhone onto other devices via iCloud.
    Interesting note from AxeMac1020 as using the Beta iPhoto Library disables the ability to retrieve using iTunes or iPhoto after being enabled AND it goes back 30 days only, I like that however how do we preserve photos? Back-up using iPhoto, then enable Library Beta? If this will delete photos once enabled, do we use "Image Capture" or "iPhoto" for import and protection against them being deleted? Seems like a benchmark as majority of photos will be deleted (although I removed all photos completely prior to activating iPhone 6.
    I had an issue with the synchronization of photos into iTunes (iOS7) whereas the photos would synch though the storage amount would double as I was selecting events and albums (iTunes sync) while maintaining the same on the iPhone (5), iOS7 related somehow, most likely user error on my part. The point is, with 64GB on that phone, it used 80% of the storage by copying the photos thrice, somehow.
    logging into iPhoto, iTunes, I was able to sort, move and remove photos though this is previous to the iCloud Drive & iCloud Photo Library. Does iCloud Photo Library require iCloud Drive and if these are sync'd like iOS7, are these managed on each device, distributed similarly as My Photo Stream? can they be managed on iCloud.com? managed via camera roll / albums/ etcetera ? Are these iCloud Drive managed? Centralized and managed on device that took the photo?
    Interesting twist as I hadn't noticed this feature until now! Thank you both !
    I am not able to turn iCloud Drive ON yet as my OS X Mavericks require Yosemite OR!!!! Perhaps we have an update!!! I'll check now.
    Great resources in this thread! Thanks !

  • All photos gone after I activeted Icloud Photo Library

    Once I activated iCloud Photo Library all my photos that used to be in the photos shared folder simply disappeared from my iPhone and do not appear in iCloud. I missed all those pictures? It is possible that iCloud is still carrying all since I had over 1000 photos?

    I have this same issue. Very frustrating. Made a similar post an no answers yet.

  • ICloud photos library for Photos app Yosemite sync issues

    Strangely, after enabling iCloud photos library on Photos app. It does sync all the lowres image into Photos app but the downloading of hires is always stuck.
    Even if I leave it to sync overnight and it just stay the same until the next morning.
    Anyone has facing the same issues?
    Thanks.

    After two weeks I'm on my 6th attempt (6th from-scratch library) just trying to get the download and sync features to work. As of this morning the sync appears to be working but the fact that after 12 hours of "downloading" my library of 53,000 images is only 9 gigabytes, I'd say, yes, my high-resolution images are not coming down either. I have definitely set to download originals to my Mac.

  • How do I upload photos from PC onto the icloud photo library?

    Hi. I have IOS 8.1 on my Apple devices (iphone and ipad). iCloud Photo Library is enabled on my devices and PC (iCloud.com).
    The photos taken on these devices has uploaded to ICloud Photo Library into my cloud storage.
    I want to also upload my photos taken by various cameras and stored on my PC (old photos).into the cloud for these t be available in the Library.  I use Windows 7
    How do I do this?

    I have this problem too. Photo stream works fine on iPhone+iPad, but the photos are never loaded to my PC (Win 8.1). My shared folders works fine on iOS and PC, but not My photo stram.
    In the beginning, a couple of years ago, it work, but not now (2014).
    All iOS are updated, and PC-iCloud software/panel is Active, and Photo stream is activated.
    What to do??
    Reset all streams on PC? I tried, no result.
    I can understand that it takes time to reload all Pictures from iCload to my PC, but I wait Days, weeks...

  • ICloud Photo Library questions... how beta-ish?

    1 so much for High Res ... however, every time I attempt to download a photo from the new Photos app on iCloud.com to my PC, it's downloaded in low resolution. Like a 3264x2448 (original size when uploaded from iOS) becomes a 2048x1536 when downloaded to the PC.
    2 how come that iCloud Photo library isn't available in iCloud Photos (Windows app)?
    3 why is Photostream still available ?!? ... the funniest being that activating iCloud Photo Library on iOS activates photostream at the same time ... In that case, the Photo Stream album remains hidden, but probably still activated and eating up space. That's ridiculous. I know, just turn it off.
    4 how optimized is "optimized" ... on my iPhone, when I choose to store optimized local versions of photos and videos with iCloud Photo Library activated, there's absolutely no change: all photos, even after hours, remain locally stored in full res and uncompressed.

    just to correct something wrong that I said: if iCloud Photo Library and PhotoStream are activated, PhotoStream won't actually eat any space and it will behave like it did in iOS 8.0 - 8.0.2, seamlessly integrated in Photos. Now if iCloud Photo Library is off and PhotoStream is still on, a new album will be created, containing low res versions of both uploaded and downloaded files (like in iOS 7), using local storage again.
    Anyway ... expecting iCloud Photo Library to get out of beta ASAP and PhotoStream to go ... for good.

  • Icloud photo library doesn't syncr from my iPhone

    Hello to everyone,
    I Have activated iCloud Photo Library on my iPhone and on my iPod. My iPod sync, but my iPhone 6 Plus has stopped doing it for a long time. I have extra space available on my iCloud account. I've tried to disable and to re-nable the function on my iPhone. I've tried to logout and to logon in my iCloud account, but nothing change, the syncro seems frozen, remain stuck in uploading photos to the cloud, and do not download/show anything. I have uploaded in the iCloud Photo app on the www.icloud.com site more photos that i can immediately see on my iPod (touch 8gb 6th generation), but nothing on my iPhone. I restored my iPhone but nothing again. I know that it's a beta, but I would like to know if I can resolve this big issue for me in somehow.
    Anybody here has had the same problem?
    Many thanks in advance fo any suggestion/solution.

    Trent 1982 solution works!
    I tried just about everything that I could think of as well as some of the solutions described above.  What worked was syncing my iPad with iTunes and transferring a few photos over to the iPad.  Then I turned on iCloud Photo Library and it asked to delete the photos I transferred and then iCloud Photo Library started syncing!
    This problem has been bugging me for weeks and I am glad that it is fixed now!
