Apple ID for sharing through photo stream

How to tell which email of my friends emails is the Apple ID?
I'm trying to use share photo stream butI don't know which email to choose for the invitation as some people have several emails, awhatever email you choose is blue to it's not like iMessage that you can tell from the bubble color.
Thanks in advance.

Well Mr, if you feel very strongly about yours, you can feedback Apple here www.apple.com/feedback. If you see it integrated later, means enough people wanted that same convenience.
If you think that what I'm asking is hard to do, we will still be using dial-up networks

  • HT201077 I shared a photo stream of 174 pictures but only 20 are showing up in the folder that was sent out. Any solutions?

    Help much appreciated!

    Upload to the shared Photo Streams can take a long time. Sometimes hours. Did the photos appear by now in the stream?
    Is the iCloud status o.k. ( iCloud Support webpage)?
    Did you share from your mac or from a mobile device? And where are you checking the stream? On your Mac? If you are uploading from a mobile device - is the battery fully charged? Uploading to the Photo Stream is the first that will be suspended, if the device needs charging.
    have ypu exceeded any limits? Daily hourly upload rates? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858

  • HT201317 updating apple tv gives error in photo stream

    After updating my Apple TV2 to 5.1 Photo Stream no longer works on Apple TV.
    It demands "accept new terms om conditions... for iCloud", but nowhere it is possible to fins the accept page.
    I have iPhone 4 with iOS 5..1.1  and PC(Vista) with iTunes updated recently. When axessing Setup in iPhone for iCloud, no accept YES/NO for new terms occurs.
    What to do?? Where is the bug?
    Sweden, language Swedish. Visa account Swedish.

    Thank for you the quick reply...
    Yes, I have setup to default to the USA...
    And I have also setup Apple TV to connect to the US Itunes store.
    I have not changed anything, but it seemed to correct itself just a minute ago.
    Weird.
    I changed nothing, then it starting working by itself.
    Bug?

  • Received a notice that could not use photo stream unless I updated my software.  Went to apple preferences/icloud to disable photo stream.  Not allowed to do so.  What do I do to disable so I won't continue to receive annoying messages from apple/icl

    I think you can solve your problems by removing your AppleID email address from BOTH the Messages setting on your iPhone and the iMessages settings on your Mac.
    On iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > iMessage > Dissabled
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > touch the "(i)" < touch "Remove This Email"
    On Mac:
    Open "Messages" application
    Click "Messages menu > Preferences
    Click "Accounts"
    Select your AppleID account
    Under the "You can be reached for messages at" settings, uncheck your AppleID email address and your phone number
    Then uncheck the "Enable this account" setting
    And lastly, ask all of your friends with iPhones to delete all iMessage conversations (blue bubbles) in their entirety.
    To test, send a friend a new text using their phone number (not their email address) and watch the color of the bubble.  If it's green then you are using SMS.

  • 1000 photos download overnight through Photo stream?

    I woke up to my iPhone 5s having downloaded 1000 photos from photo stream with no apparent reason for a change in my photo stream to cause that many old photos to upload. I logged into my Mac mini and booted iPhoto and the same 1000 photos, all were duplicates, began downloading as well. Anyone have an idea why I had this massive download out of nowhere?

    Hi Robh5791,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    My Photo Stream saves the last 1000 photos taken and pushes them to all of your devices on the same Apple ID that have My Photo Stream turned on.
    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?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    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.
    I hope this helps,

  • Can't play video shared on Photo Stream

    Hi, I'm having trouble playing a short (27-second) video shared on Photo Stream/iCloud. It shows up on my iPhone (OS7), but when I try to play it, it just spins and spins. I've downloaded the latest OS and version of iPhoto for my MacBook Air as well, and the video doesn't even show up there. I can only see photos from the shared Photo Stream, but not the video.
    Thanks for your help!

    Same issue here.
    Share videos to photo stream an it doesn't play on any other device. It just sites there forever spinning around and around (left overnight).
    Tested on iPad 2 and iPhone 5s with iOS 7.0 and 7.0.1 respectively.

  • HT204053 i have 2 apple ids and one is from years ago when icloud wasnt a thought but now somehow it became my primary apple id and i cant photo stream with the apple id i use. Even if im signed into my old one the photo stream doesnt automatically go to

    i have 2 apple ids and one is from years ago when icloud wasnt a thought but now somehow it became my primary apple id and i cant photo stream with the apple id i use. Even if im signed into my old one the photo stream doesnt automatically go to my mac. Im not exactly technology savy but id love to figure this out.

    I have also noticed the same "problem".  I do not fully understand the impact of using the same ID on multiple computers and devices if I want to keep them all in sync.

  • Can someone explain me the difference between iCloud Photo Sharing, My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Library?

    This is very confusing. Can someone explain the difference between these 3 options in Photos app.

  • HT4858 How do I limit a photo from being shared on photo stream (using as screen saver on Apple TV, but don't want family photos shared in presentation)

    I am attempting to use my Apple TV and Ipad for a public presentation and want to show business pictures on the screen saver, but I don't want personal family pictures shown. Is there a way to limit these photos or set up an album for the screen saver on the presentation?

    Put the photos that you wish to use for your presentation or screensaver into a photo stream shared album and then choose that album as your screensaver in your screensaver settings.

  • HT201077 Can't play videos shared over photo stream from my brother. Please help!

    I used to be able to play videos which were streamed by my brother and now I cannot view them, they just are continually loading. How can this issue be solved?

    Hello Puddinchops,
    It sounds like you are not able to view shared videos from your brothers Shared Photo Stream. I recommend starting by closing all the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    Then reset your network settings and test the issue again:
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings
    From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Shared iCloud Photo Streams - "read only" ?

    I am looking for a setting in iPhoto or iCloud so that the people that I have invited only have the right to view my shared album but not to add or delete photos.
    This kind of setting is possible with the shared calendars and it would be in my opinion useful for the shared photo stream as well. Is there a setting that I missed? Am I the only one looking for this feature?

    You set that option in each shared photo stream individually, when you create the Shared Photo Stream.
    You cannot change it for existing streams - only delete the stream and recreate it without the option "Subscribers can post".  The screenshot is for Shared Photo Streams in iPhoto on the Mac, but the corresponding Shared Albums created on iOS devices have a similar option, when you create them.

  • What are the command keys for sharing my photos to others in my house

    I am the primary user of our Mac and have all of our photos on my desktop. My wife and kids also have accounts, but want access to the photos on my iPhoto. I called Apple support some time ago and they gave me a series of keystrokes/ instructions so that photos share across the 3 other users in my house...can't remember it.
    Any thoughts?

    If you want the other user(s) to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.

  • Contacts are not available when sharing a photo stream

    I've updated my iPhone to iOS 6 and have noticed when I'm trying to share a photo stream, the bulk of my contacts are greyed out and not selectable. More notably, a lot of my contacts that have iOS 6 are greyed out. What's the criteria for it being eligible to share a photo stream?

    No.  I just tried and was able to address to non-iCloud users.  Not sure why yours is grayed out.  Try addressing it by just typing in the email address rather than tapping the plus sign to go into contacts.

  • IPhoto Description Data sharing via Photo Stream

    I have a lot of photos in iPhoto on one MACbook with descrition and location info manually added. When I share these photos via Photo Stream to another MACbook, all the description and location data is not passed across. How can I share the photos via Photo Stream with the attached descrition and location data?

    You can't.  If you want the titles you've added to the photos to be displayed instead of the acutual filie name you'll need to do the following;
    1 - export to the Desktop via File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu with the option File Name: Title.
    2 - import the renamed photos back into iPhoto and use them in the Photo Stream.
    Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • How do I get photos from my iPhone to my computer through Photo Stream that are older than 30 days?

    I set up iCloud on my Windows computer a few months after I got my iPhone.  I set up iCloud and Photo Streaming on my iPhone when I got it, so when I eventually set up iCloud on my computer it would only download the last 30 days of photos to my computer. Is there any way to get the older pictures on my phone to my computer though the iCloud?

    Photos are only stored in iCloud for 30 days. If they are still in the camera roll on your phone, you can extract them as you would photos from any digital camera. If you deleted them from the camera roll and they have rolled off of iCloud Photo Stream, I'm afraid they are gone.
