Add viewer to shared album

Withe the new Photo app, i've made a shared album (family) , now how can I add one or more persons to view the album (some more family members).

Launch Photos, open the shared PhotoStream, click on the little face to hard the right side on top and type in the additional email addresses in the subscribers area

Easiest way to access shared album with Lion only

one of my friends is still using Lion only and she's want to make a photobook on her Mac with the pictures from a shared album (not photo stream) that I created. She also has an iPhone and iPad that have iOS6 (she's willing to update to iOS7 if that helps) and thus can view the shared album.
under this situation, what's the easiest way for her to get the pictures over to her Mac? There are over 100 photos so email is something she wants to avoid. Apps that are not very expensive (<$10) is ok if they can do the job quickly. and high resolution preferred (doesn't have to be the full resolution)
and she's using aperture to create the photobook, not that i think it's too relevant to the question
thanks much in advance.

You might be thinking of Crossover. Not sure if Windows Media Player works under it, but their website has info on requested and working apps.
Best of luck.

Shared albums missing

I am unable to see albums that have been shared with me. I've verified my email address with the sharer, what else do I need to check that may be the cause?

Is the other user trying to invite you to collaborate in a group library or is he sharing a link to an album he wants you to view? It is possible that the user is not sharing in the correct way. See this link for details. It is important that the user sets an album to be shared, then views the shared album and copies the link. If they copy the link that they see from their account, it will not work for you.

FAQ: How do I share my photos in Revel? http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1295026

How can I add photo albums on my Mac to my iCloud shared album?

I recently upgraded from iPhoto to the new Photos app on my Mac. I then decided to try iCloud Photo Sharing. I have 10,000 photos on my Mac and I keep them organized by albums. I cannot figure out how to add entire selected existing photo albums in my Photos app which reside on my Mac to icloud Photo Sharing rather than adding photos one at a time. It would take me forever to go through my 10,000 photos to choose which ones I want to share. I just want to share certain albums. Please help! MacBook Pro Late 2011 Mac OS 10.10.3

Open the album and select all of the photos. click on the Share button and select the Shared Photo Album you want to add them to (or create a new shared album).

When I updated to iOS 8.3 I lost all shared photo albums on my iPad Air. Other devises which I shared to still have access to photo albums but my iPad does not, therefore I can no longer add or delete to shared albums. I can create new shared albums.

Hello JimS19,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:

When using a shared photostream album can we have other subscribers add pictures to the album?

I would like to have my subscribers on shared albums have access to add photos to the album....can we or will we be able to do this?

I opened iPhoto thereby recreating the iPhoto library and somehow iPhoto fixed System Preferences and now Desktop Pictures works again.

Cannot subscribe to an invitation to view shared album

Hi falberta,
Have you been able to solve this? I have the same issue.
Thank you.

Can't add photos to a shared album in Photos

I created a shared album in Photos with 59 photos. Only 15 were uploaded to the album and when I try to add the others, nothing happens. I highlight them, click "add" and.... nothing.

If it's a new Library then File -> Import would be the way to get things into it.

Shared albums can no longer add photos

Hi,
I have a couple of shared photo albums (iCloud) that I use to share photos with my parents and maybe once or twice a month I add new photos to them. But for some reason I can no longer add photos? I can drag my new photos to these albums and everything appears normal, but nothing ever happens. Just earlier I added the photos I wanted to share to a new album and it worked fine. So is there any kind of a limit or shelf life to a shared album or what could be causing the ones I normally use not to be updated any longer?
Thanks,
rc

ok i have read this but:
1. album 1 has 1119 photos and album 2 has 560
2. both albums are shared with only 1 person
3. i have not uploaded photos to these albums in over a month
4. i have not received any notifications about overuse
so does this make sense? thanks for the help...

When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs?

When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs? When I view the music stored on my iMac, I get a choice to view by Songs, Artists, Albums, Composers, etc. But I don't get any choice with the music on my iPhone.
Its really hard to manage the music on my iPhone. I want to quickly remove albums and add new ones.
Is there a solution that I haven't seen?

Create a playlist, add/delete albums and sync this playlist.
You don't need to manually manage the iPhone music to do this.

HT201077 As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others. Only I can see them. How come others sharing this photo stream are not getting the new photos?

As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others and I don't see the updated photos on my other devices. Only I can see them from the device that i've posted from. How come others sharing this photostream are no longer getting the new photos? My iphone (the device i'm adding from) shows 20 pictures in this shared photostream and yet 4 other people that I share this photostream album with and my ipad only show 12 photos. For the past week I keep adding photos thinking people will see them but it just won't update the new ones. Any ideas how to fix this?

You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.

Shared albums not shown in Photos for Mac

I upgraded my iPhoto library to Photos yesterday and the main photo content migrated fine. I have two OS X devices - a MacBook Pro and a Mac Mini.
On my MacBook Pro, if I enable the sidebar in Photos, I see:
Photos
Shared
Activity
<Other shared albums - both my own and from another iCloud user>
Albums<Various Albums>
On my Mac Mini, I only see:
Photos
Albums<Various Albums>
So Photos on the Mac Mini is not picking up on existing shared albums. If I go to View | Shared it prompts me to "Start Sharing" (as if I haven't done this before). If I click Start Sharing and then create a test album the sharing dialog just vanishes after I select and email address to share with.
Anybody else seeing this? Any ideas?

Ok. I followed another suggestion and tried restarting the computer. It seemed to bring up the libraries. At first, I saw no pictures from the shared photos as they reported zero photos when they came up. However, leaving it open for a while seemed to bring back more and more of the libraries, and that was only after restarting the computer a 2nd time. I did get almost all my shared photos back, but each time it seems to stop and not bring all the photos back. I'll try restarting another time as it seems to be the big thing here.
The syncing activity in Yosemite seems to have some internal limit, where it stops attempting to grab photos from the stream and/or share, and then Photos only tries looking again after a computer restart, not a restart of the application.

Shared albums in folders not showing.

This is a HUGE disappointment, but I've been migrating a lot of photos to iPhoto and organizing things accordingly. When I view the iphoto library as a shared library, the albums within the folders don't show up, but instead the photos in the folder are just seen as one large album.
Is there a workaround or solution to this?

Same issue here. On my main computer I've got my photo library orgainzed with albums in folders. When viewing my shared library on my MacBook I see the each folder of albums merged into a single album with the folder's name.
There's obviously hacky ways around this like taking the albums out of the folder and prefixing them [folder_name] - [album_name]. But that's not a solution.
Post a solution if you find one elsewhere. I'll do the same.

Cover Flow view with shared library?

I use iTunes for Windows on my laptop and share my library from my iMac...is there a way to utilize cover flow view with a shared libary?

Since just moving all my music to a NAS I was here researching the same issue. I can see the other three (only when music is specifically selected) but not Cover Flow. I believe it has been disabled. I played around with grid view with 428 albums and iTunes for Windows loads the art fresh evertime you start it and, on the smallest art size in grid view, it took a bit of time to load all the art.
If Cover Flow needs to cache up all the art work in advance then I could see how it would easily take my setup between 45 seconds to a minute to cache them all up.
Perhaps that would feel too clunky for Apple especially if one were to aggressively swipe through a set that wasn't completely cached.

Photostream shares photos from shared albums to my computer, but "My Photostream" on my computer is empty. How can I get my photos to upload to my computer?

I have an iPhone 6 now, but I had an iPhone 5s previously. My Photostream stopped uploading pictures to my computer in November, 2013. If I create a shared album on my phone, it uploads to my PC, but "My Photostream" does not update. I've reset settings on the phone, turned sharing on and off, restarted my phone, updated operating systems, paid for more storage on iCloud.

Greetings monienon,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have your My Photo Stream activated on your iPhone but nothing is showing in My Photo Stream in iPhoto. In this situation, I would recommend working through the suggested troubleshooting steps for this situation located in the attached article.
Get help using My Photo Stream - Apple Support
I don't see any photos in the My Photo Stream view of iPhoto or Aperture.
Make sure your Mac has an active Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. If you can't connect to the Internet, updates to My Photo Stream won't appear in iPhoto or Aperture. You can use these steps to troubleshoot your Internet connection on your Mac.
From your Mac, choose System Preferences > iCloud.
Make sure that the Photo Stream checkbox is selected and you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
Open iPhoto or Aperture, then choose Preferences > iCloud (or Photo Stream).
If you're using iPhoto 9.4 or later or Aperture 3.4 or later, make sure that My Photo Stream is selected. If you want all new photos that you upload to your iPhoto or Aperture library to upload to My Photo Stream, select Automatic Upload.
If you're using iPhoto 9.2.2 through 9.3.2, or Aperture 3.2.3 through 3.3.2, select Enable Photo Stream and Automatic Import.
Cheers,
Joe
