Can't find Photo Stream on computer!!

I have the Verizon iPhone 4 and sync it to a HP desktop that runs Windows Vista.  I wanted to view my pics for the first time on Photo Stream on my computer.  I was unable to find them.  I read through the help sections and learned I needed to do the following:
Start Menu - DONE
Control Panel - DONE
Network - DONE
iCloud icon - UNABLE to click on it because it is NOT THERE.
HELP!!!  How do I access my pics?  How do I view all 600+ pics I have stored?

Do you have photo stream turned on, on your iPhone?  (Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream)
The next step after that would be to install iCloud control panel:

Once you run that and sign in, you will see a photo stream option.

  • Can't find photo stream on iPhoto

    When I first had my iphone in September 2012, my photos were downloaded directly to my macbook through icloud.  Now, I can't seem to see the photos I took on my phone on my computer.  Does anyone know why it would stop working?  Do I need to update iphoto?

    Here's what you need to use iCloud and Photo Stream:
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
    The above is from this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    If your MacBook meets these requirements then try the following:
    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • HT201317 help - can't find photo stream in my icloud account..

    I am new to all this... I could see mail, contact, calendar, iwork at my icloud account on the web but where do I find the photo stream to view my photos online?

    I'm not new to iCloud myself, but I too would like the opportunity to manage my photos online, and also perform rudimentary editing such as rotation, cropping and other activities, as I cannot perform these with the Windows Photo Gallery once the photos are downloaded to my computer (I get the error message: "This photo can't be saved because of a problem with the file's properties." And, I often get photos with incorrect rotation because of how I or others hold my chosen iDevice and would sure like to edit these before they're locked on my computer. I share them to Facebook often, and admittedly can definitely use THEIR rotation tool, but I would like the flexibility of doing it to the photos in Photo Stream, too.

  • Can't Find Photo Streams in iPhoto 9.6 (Yosemite)

    Just upgraded to Yosemite.
    When I click the iCloud item under "Shared", I see all of my last 1000 photos in "My Photo Stream".  What's missing are the 30 or so photo streams I've either joined or created over the past year.
    I see them on my photo / iPad, so I know they are there.  Is there a bug / issue where iPhoto can't see these right now? Or is there some magic setting somewhere that I'm missing?
    Adam

    Go to iPhoto's iCloud preference pane and uncheck the My Photo Stream and Photo Sharing checkboxes.  Close iPhoto, relaunch, go back to that preference pane and recheck those two boxes:

    I can't find my pictures on icloud where are they?? i have photo stream on but I can't find icloud on my computer to make sure it is on! It isn't listed under the network and internet like the "help" option said!

    Do the following:

    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

    lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?
    thanks

    Where did you put them?
    These are not part of the sync process at all, as the manual tells you.  You should be importing them to your comptuer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • Can't find photo's when trying to sync ipad to itunes

    can't find photo's when sycing ipad to itunes

    I also am having problems.  I have the newest ipad (4 and mini both) and also all software is up to date.  My itunes is 11.0.5 which is the most up to date version.  First off my ipad has over 7 GB of photos on it which is taking up too much space.  I want to delete my Photo Library which is apparently all photos off my laptop that got synced to my ipad.  The ipad itself will not allow a delete option in this Photo Library.  Additionally the new version of itunes does NOT have a Photo tab or option to click or otherwise which photos to sync.  It's as if photos through itunes was removed in their new software version.  Anyway...... I can not delete or remove from my ipads the photos that came from my main computer.... the only photos able to be deleted are those that I actually took from my ipad.  This is also true for my husbands iPhone 5....   Please help   Thank you

  • Can't activate Photo Stream on PC

    So I have an iPhone 4, running iOS 5. I have downloaded iCloud control panel and I can't activate Photo Stream. This is what I get:  http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/3097/icloude.png
    How can I fix this?

    I have posted a fix that works for two issues:
    You can't sign onto iCloud Control Panel;  just hangs with a spinning progress wheel forever..
    You CAN sign onto iCloud Control Panel, but things like photostream are greyed out
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3811063?tstart=30
    If you have iCloud control panel open, close it. Make sure its not even minimized on your system tray.
    Copy this path to your clipboard: %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences
    Goto 'start -> run' (or click 'windows+r' hotkey)
    Paste the path in the run box and hit enter
    From the folder that is opened, rename 'MobileMeAccounts.plist' out of the way (or you can delete it if want..)
    Restart iCloud control panel and try logging on again. MobileMeAccounts.plist is regenerated the next time you sign out from control panel.
    Apparently MobileMeAccounts.plist is getting screwed up in a couple different ways and prevents this from working correctly.  After you log on control panel again, photostream will not be greyed out.  You will have to reselect your custom path you want to store your pictures unless you just wanted to stick with the default path control panel is set to.

    Today, I can't use Photo Stream to copy my new photo in PC. I capture a new photo in my iPad but it doesn't up to Photo Stream. I don't know why? Help me. Thanks

  • Can I move photos from one computer to another using Vault?

    Can I move photos from one computer to another using Vault?  I use an external hard drive as a vault for my Imac and I want to import photos to my Macbook pro.  I have aperture 3 on both units.  Can I just plug the ext. drive into the laptop and import from the vault?

    You can't import from the vault but you can restore that vault onto the MBP. This will restore the complete library that is contained in the vault.

  • Can I disable photo stream from select devices that are connected to my iTunes account?

    Hello,  I was wondering is there any way to do this because I have three iPads connected onto my account, one is in another country and one my parents own, but for my personal one, I would like to disable this feature so my pictures don't get uploaded. My parents like to see the photos being taken by family in another country and I would like those two devices connected only. 

    You can turn off photo stream on one device without effecting the others.  If you want to keep the photo stream photos on the device you are going to turn it off on, you will need to same them to your camera roll before doing so.  To do this open the my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Photos and turn off My Photo Stream.  This will delete the photo stream photos from this device, but not the others (and you already saved copies of these photos to your camera roll so they will still be on your device).
    The other two iPads that are signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled will still be sharing the same photo stream but you will no longer see it, and your photos will no longer be added to the stream.  They can still share photos with you by adding them to a shared stream and inviting you as a subscriber (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).
