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.

  • 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

  • How can I transfer a video between iPads? I can see the video in a photo stream but it won't save to the new iPad.

    I shot a video with the camera on an iPad and want to transfer a copy to a new iPad Mini to take advantage of the retina display.  I can see it in a photo stream, but it won't let save it to the new iPad.  The old iPad didn't have enough memory to work on an iMovie, so I need to get the video in the new iPad mini to put it in an iMovie project.

    Okay, I figured out that Windows has "AutoPlay" settings which can automatically download photos and videos from a newly connected device, such as an iPad Mini.  I think I could open it in Windows Explorer too that way but the auto download solved my problem.

  • How can save my videos in My photo stream album?

    My picture are saved in my photo stream however my videos are not saved. Is there any way to save my videos in this site instead using my phone memory?

    Photo stream does not support videos at the present time.  Apple announced that iOS 7, due out this fall, will include iCloud Photo Sharing which will include videos (see http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features/).

  • Cant' play video in i-photo anymore: worked well yesterday

    can't play video in i-photo anymore: worked well yesterday

    First download and install QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later.  Launch iPhoto and try the videos again.  If still no go give this a try:   launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. if it does try the following: try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    Still not playing then apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

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

    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

  • Can't play videos on a newly upgraded iBook

    I have recently upgraded my iBook G3 to 10.4.11. I also added an Airport card and a 512 MB RAM card. I can do pretty much anything on the internet (Safari 4.0.4) but can't play videos. The picture is really jumpy & laggy and the sound continues out of sync with the picture. Am I missing something or is the computer just not advanced enough to keep up?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Streaming video on an iBook G3 is a toughie.
    Some suggestions which I found to help:
    Restart the computer and open only the browser you want to use. Don't have any other applications open when you're attempting to watch streaming video.
    Sometimes Firefox worked better for me than Safari (but I never used 10.4 on my iBook G3).
    Some people have reported luck using VLC:
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
    As a last resort, if possible, download the video and watch it from your hard drive.
    Keep in mind that the last, best iBook G3 (900 MHz) was last produced in October of 2003, so you have a very old iBook attempting to play the latest versions of video, so things are often not very workable.
    Good luck.

  • I cannot see the videos stored in 'videos' on my iphone 4s to transfer them. The videos in my photo stream transfer over when connected to a pc.

    I cannot see the videos in 'videos' when connectedto a pc to transfer them over then delete. I can see the videos & transfer them from the photo stream.

    Correcion - the videos in the photo stream are different videos. I need to move & delete the videos in 'videos'.

  • HT201317 Can anyone tell me why my photo stream is not loading all of my pics onto my new iPhone 5c. phone plug into iMac, all settings on phone are for photo stream on. it only sent 100 out of 1000. thanks for any help !

    Can anyone tell me why my photo stream is not loading all 1,000 pictures onto my new iphone 5c? i backed up my old phone onto the mac and plugged in my new phone then hit backup. it only gave me 100 pictures????? why?
    thanks for any help!

    Because photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for your devices to download them.  Only shared streams keep photos in iCloud indefinitely.  Your other photos are probably older than 30 days and are no longer in iCloud.
    Also, photo stream photos aren't included in your backup, only camera roll photos are.  If you want to include photo stream photos that are not already in your camera roll in your backup, you have to save them to the camera roll before backing up.
