Can't access pictures on iCloud

This message keeps popping up in my screen every now and then, saying: 'Photo Stream. Photos for the iCloud account "..." cannot be accessed. Review your account information in System Preferences.'
I've checked it already and everything seems to be fine. Actually, Photo Stream has worked for me up until yesterday, when I tried to share some pictures via Photo Stream. May this be the problem? Now I can't even access it through iPhoto.
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

iCloud does'nt store ALL of your photos, only 1000 max and it only has those that have been taken by a mobile device that's signed into your iCloud account and has Photo Stream activated or the those in your library if you have Photo Stream activated and set to automatically upload all new photos imported into your library (3rd checkbox). 
However, there is a 1000 photo limit and they will be purged every 30 days.
I suggest you go into iPhoto's Accounts section and delete your iCloud account and log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane.  Then log back in and go back to iPhoto and add the iCloud account back.

    How can I access my parents iCloud account remotely to assist with photo management and printing?

    I tried that without any luck. I was hoping I could get Apple to reset it for me or delete the account so I could recreate it or at least tell me what is listed as my birth date, the security question answer.

    Are you talking about an iCloud backup? If so, no, an iCloud backup cannot be viewd, it can only be restored to another iOS device.

    Hello there, Confused Apples.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some step-by-step instruction for changing the email for your Apple ID:
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    Sign out of iCloud, the iTunes Store, App Store, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone, and iMessage on each device that uses your current Apple ID for these services.
    Go to My Apple ID.
    Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in. Forgot your password?
    Select Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
    Enter the email address that you want to use as your Apple ID, then select Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
    Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now. Didn't receive the email?
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your new Apple ID email address and password. When you see a message that verification is complete, you can start using your updated Apple ID.
    Remember to update the features and services that you use with Apple ID.
    Learn how to use and manage your Apple ID.

  • I can't access to my icloud on my iphone, why gives me a message Verification Failed?

    i can't access to my icloud on my iphone, why gives me a message Verification Failed? NO itunes either? No App store either? why?

    It sounds rather like you are only connected via your mobile signal - no data and no WiFi. Perhaps you might want to think about trying it again when you have better connections.

    What do you mean by "renamed" the account?
    Have you went to Settings>iCloud and deleted the account from the iPod and then signed back in with the "renamed" account?

  • Ive lost my iphone cant afford a new one is there anyay i can get my pictures of icloud on to my computer

    ive lost my iphone is there anyway i can get my pictures of icloud to my laptop

    That depends.
    Were you using iCloud?
    Did you have Photo Stream enabled?
    If you answered yes to both questions, then you may be able to retrieve some photos from Photo Stream.
    Photo Stream photos are only stored on the server for 30 days so you will only be able to retieve the last 30 days of photos.
    Do you have a PC or Mac?

  • IOS4 issue on 3GS-can't access pictures or use camera!

    I updated my 3GS with the iOS 4 software as soon as it was available. I did all the things Apple adviced me to do prior to the update- such as transfer bought items and backup my iphone.
    After updating the 3GS with iOS 4 everything seemed to be going well, except for 2 things.....I can't start the camera and I can't reach my pictures.......when I click on either- the iphone starts connecting to the picture library, but after 4-5 secs the program shuts down and I'm back in home-mode!
    I've tried to restore from factory settings but the same thing remains (and restore with previous saved security backup)...can't access pictures or use the camera.
    Although if I restore and set up as "new iphone" instead of backing up previous settings and media everything works! Camera works and I can enter picture area (although off course it is empty.....being a new iphone)
    So there seems to have been a problem with the backup prior to the iOS4 update.....
    Funny thing is that when I have the iphone connected to the pc and I look at iTunes....there is 1.65 GB of pictures on my iphone...although I just can't see it.....
    Also in the previous iTunes there used to be a tab for "pictures" just like "movies" "Music" "tv-shows" etc etc......no the "picture" tab is missing.........?!?!
    My wife also has a 3GS and I did the software update on hers.....and there everything works just fine!!
    I have so far come to the conclusion that I could restore to factory settings and start fresh with the option "set up as new iphone", but then I would loose all contacts.....all programs and email settings........which is a pain in the butt.........
    I'd appreciate if someone could help me because the help desk in Norway (Apple resellers) don't have a clew.....
    Anyone?!?
    Thanks in advance

    Someone gave me help in my own thread. They used a Mac program and deleted files, but Im on Windows 7.
    I used iBackupBot 3.0.7
    Just load it up (I had my phone connected). The select a backup and then select 'Browse and export media' button then on the pop up window is a complete list of all my missing media. There is an export button in the top corner.
    I have all my photos and videos back now YAY!
    Thanks all!

  • Have Pages on iPad and MacBook Pro but can't access docs from iCloud on laptop.

    have Pages on iPad and MacBook Pro but can't access docs from iCloud on laptop. laptop keeps telling me to purchase pages for iPad (which I've been using on both the iPad and MacBook for months - App store says i have them both too). Both units have current updated systems and apps. Using same apple ID.  Calendar and contacts work fine between both machines.

    Do you have any secondary accounts set up in mail, contacts and calendars.

  • Just upgraded from snow leopard to maverick.  Can't access pictures from iPhoto now.

    Suggestions?

    No suggestions until you explain what "can't access pictures from iPhoto now"... means, or even looks like.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • How can i download pictures from icloud to my pc

    how can i download pictures from icloud to my pc.pictures r on my phone but i cant download them on my pc

    Photos are downloaded to a computer from an iPhone similar to the way a digital camera works. Using iCloud to transfer photos to a PC requires the iCloud Control Panel. Read this article for more help on both methods:

  • How do i access pictures in icloud on my iphone?

    I traded to an iphone 5s from the 4s.  My pics from the 4s were save to Icloud, is there a way to access the pics from my new Iphone?

    To transfer you camera roll photos, app data, text messages, ringtones, settings, apps and other purchased media from your old phone to your new one, restore the iCloud backup of your 4s to your 5s.  You can also access photo stream photos from the last 30 days by signing into the same iCloud account in Settings>iCloud and turning on my photo steam in Settings>iCloud>Photos.

  • How can I access email if iCloud is blocked?

    The company I work for views iCloud as a potential threat to the company network and have blocked all access to it. Is there another method that I can use to access email when I am at work?

    If your company are ok with you accessing your email, you can either access it via webmail at http://www.icloud.com through a browser, or ask your companies IT department to open up access to only the iCloud IMAP and SMTP email servers.
    The relevant server details are here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    Document storage, calendars, bookmarks, photostream and everything else iCloud provides are all done through different servers so can be blocked seperately to the email servers.
