Deleted iPhoto photos in photostream

When I upload photos into iphoto it creates an event (I have hundreds as am using a time delay sports camera).
I then delete the unwanted photos from the event in iphoto BUT photostream uploads ALL photos. Even when I go into WEB Photostream on imac and delete all the photos other devices photostream downloads.
How can I get photostream to synch only events of non-deleted photos?
Much help appreciated.
Thanks

In the iPhoto preferences turn off the auto upload to PS. Manually drag the photos you want in PS to it

Don't know how to delete my photos in photostream from all devices

Hi! I've just discovered that my brother and I share the same iCloud account, therefor he will se all my photos on photostream. I inactivated it on my phone quickly, but now I realized that the pictures just are deleted from my device. I really really need to get the photos deleted from all devices as fast as i can, I'd appreciate a quick answer. Thank you!

Deleting iphoto photos from iPad

When backing up my ipad to my macbook before updating to IOS 7 somehow I managed to sync all the photos from my mac which were in Iphoto to my ipad - all 10 GB of photos. Now I don't have enough space to update to IOS7 or indeed download any more apps.
How do I undo this operation? I tried resyncing my ipad to the mac book but I'm not getting any option to do with photos. If I delete the photos individually from the ipad will they still be on iphotos when I sync again to the macbook?
All suggestions welcome and thank you in advance.

You haven't told us anything about your iPad's environment: Which model? Whici iOS version?
But perhaps the most important question is how much free space you have? Look at Settings > General > Usage and note the available space. It needs to be absolutely no less than 10% of the iPad's total storage space.
If space is tight, you might try deleting other things first.
Whether space is tight or not, you might try deleting fewer photos at a time. The feeling I get is you're trying to do one massive delete. Try some smaller ones first.

How can I recover deleted iPhoto photos

Hello,
Just a few weeks ago, I noticed my hard drive was nearly to capacity on my imac, so thanks to the boards here, I moved my entire iPhoto library to an external hard drive. The move was successful, however, recently I was organizing photos in iPhoto (now on external hard drive) and I inadvertently deleted photos from a recent vacation. The next day I emptied my iPhoto trash can. Is there any way I can recover these photos? I have Time Machine but I believe it doesn't work on the external hard drive, does it? Please help!

According to this link (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4927), "Time Machine canʼt do a full iPhoto Library backup when iPhoto is open. To ensure that Time Machine does a complete backup of your library, periodically quit iPhoto before backing up."

Delete single photos in photostream

How do I delete one og more pictures from photostream?
I've already found out that I can delete my entire photostream "library".
But it should be possible to mark and delete 1 or more photos.
Does anybody know how to do that?
If it's not possible: APPLE pls. fix it
Thanks

All of these posts are correct, and offer good insight into both the working & the limitations of photostream
The ways to avoid 'bad' photos ending up in the stream will all work, but they are quite an ineffecient way to do things.
You really have 2 options now
1) Just put up with bad, blurry photos in your stream & move on with life
2) Turn photo stream OFF most of the time, & turn it on only when you really want to show off some photos.
Until Apple allows the ability to indivudually delete photos from the stream, there's nothing else you can do.
Also, was just thinking. If you turn Photosteam off & delete its contents, THEN turn it back on again, will it fill the stream up with the last 30 days of photos currently on your camera roll? Or will it only add photos to the stream when you start taking new photos on your iphone camera?

Deleted iPhoto Photos showing in the new Photos app

I didn't see a new spot to ask this so I figured I would post it in the iPhoto section. When my wife and I import to iPhoto we usually delete a bunch of random screenshots,etc. iPhoto doesn't have them but looking back for some reason the new photos app is showing more photos then iPhoto has. Anyone else seeing this behavior?

I have to disagree Terence. It creates a complete copy of the iPhoto database. I verified this by deleting the iPhotos database and photos worked fine. It also added 188GB to my crash plan backup and time capsule backup. I have seen other beta testers say it doesn't but it does in my case. It also did this with no interaction on my part.
It doesn't. It uses Unix Hard Links the actual photos, so while both Libraries report 188 gigs or whatever, they are reporting the same 188 gigs. Or put another way, when you deleted the iPhoto Library, did your disk space go up by 188 gigs? Time Machine and CrashPlan don't deal with these links - BTW, an online service like Crashplan for an iPhoto/Aperture/Photos library has a high risk of data corruption.
I can't figure out why the new photos app is showing more photos then my iPhoto had. It seems to be showing a large chunk of things I previously deleted in iphoto but nothing was in the trash
Your iPhoto Library was corrupted and wasn't cleaning up after deletions properly.
I am not against the new photos app. I want to use it so I hope the Apple Fans don't jump down my throat.
The app either does what you want or doesn't. If it doesn't use another one. For me, it's nowhere near my needs and I have no problem making that decision.

Deleted iPhoto photos showing in Aperture - can anyone help?

Having imported my iPhoto images (1000s of them) into Aperture using the option of keeping current location (i.e. iPhoto), i busily started to delete photos (particulalry RAW files) from iPhoto. Unfortunately, these photos are still showing in Aperture - albeit with a yellow warning triangle?
Questions:
1. Why are these appearing? Anyway I can make them disappear?
2. How can I put all my images into Aperture now and make iPhoto redundant so that it does not happen again? I have tried to import but Aperture says i need > 150GB of space in order to do the import (which I don't have).
Thanks!

What you are seeing in Aperture are the previews Aperture created of the imported images. The reason they have the yellow triangle is because the master is gone from where Aperture expects it to be.
As I understand your situation the images you are deleting are ones you don't want anymore in either iPhoto or Aperture, correct? (I hope so because if you deleted them and emptied the system trash they are gone from both programs for good).
So what you want to do is get rid of the preview images of the images you deleted. Not an easy task, most users want to get the masters back. You can try selecting all the images that are missing there masters and delete the previews but I'm not really sure this will get rid of them totally from Aperture.
The correct way to have done this would have been to do the deleting from inside Aperture. This way all remnants of the images would be removed from the Aperture library.

HT204022 how to delete old photos from photostream on ipad

I have tried to delete my old phots from my photostream but cannot, I went to icloud.com but cannot get to the advanced settings option to turn it off, also when I go to photostream album and tap edit I do not get the delte option - I have the latest version of software - anyone know how to do this.

I have kinda same problem, can't delete some pictures from photo stream directly from my iPad.
tap edit and can select photo but "Delete" button seems not acceptable.
i can see the delete icon but it's not working....
If i connect to my PC, it preview only 2 photos but iTune shows me number of picture is 48 photos,.
So these 2 photos are able to delete, but other 46 photos are not able to delete.
When open Photo stream, there are three icons on the top middle     Photos - Photo stream - Albums
when i tap "photo", there are only 2 photos (which is deletable)
when i tap "Photo stream", there are no photo display. (display; New photo will be automatically uploarded and sent to all of your iClioud devices when connected to Wi-fi)
when i tap Albums, there are 2 files "Camera roll" (2 photos) and "photo stream" (46 photos).
In Camera roll photo can delete.
But ... Photo stream in Album, ... tap edit then can select pictures but there is no icon for delete.
And same as Lafayete, I went to icloud.com but cannot get to the advanced settings option to turn it off, also when I go to photostream album and tap edit I do not get the delte option
I need heeeelp   :-(

Additional copies of deleted iPhoto Photo Books

Can I somehow get an additional copy of a Photo Book that I composed and had printed and mailed within the last month? I didn't make a copy for myself. My hard drive just went down a couple of days ago and I lost these most recent photos (my iDisk was full and I had not gotten around to adding space. My bad.) Through the iPhoto print shop (Kodak??) is there somehow for this Photo Book to be retrieved and reprinted, or ideally, can I retrieve the photo files from them???

Do I have to upload the whole book every time I want to order an additional copy?
Depends
t would be nice to know that the file stays in an archive so that it can be re-ordered without having to travel with our imac to the store each time.
http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/ordering_options/
Can Apple reprocess a previous order?
Apple stores the image files of book, card, and calendar orders for 40 days, and print orders for 20 days, from the date of purchase. We will be unable to reprocess an order on your behalf once the files have been removed from our servers. To ask Apple to reprint a previous order, please email us using the form below.
Note: Reprocessed orders will ship to the same address and be charged to the same credit card listed on the original order.
Hope that helps

How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud?

How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud? Thank you.

Look, there are a million threads on this already.
The facts are:
1) you can't delete individuals photos from Photostream. Simple as that.
2) if you want to delete all the photos, then switch PS off on all your devices (including iPhoto), go to iCloud.com, click on your name, go to advanced settings and reset PS. They will be gone from all your devices and iCloud.
3) switch PS back on in all the same devices.
Let's hope this is sorted out in the near future.

If i delete a photo in my iphoto library that I added to a photo stream, does it delete it from the photo stream?

If i delete a photo in my iphoto library that I added to a photo stream, does it delete it from the photo stream?

i can't tell if my question is the same, or slightly different, but this thread seems closest to my question so i will ask it here so as to not duplicate:
on my iphone 6 i have icloud photos beta on. in iphoto on my computer, i have photostream on, but auto import off. so, the only thing i have for photo stream photos is "icloud" under the shared heading.
when i delete a photo from the icloud section in photo, it does not delete it from the photos beta app in beta.icloud.com. if i had auto import turned on, i would think this would be normal functioning with respect to the actual events that get imported, but since i have it turned off and am working with photostream itself i would have thought it would delete from the photos app on the website when i delete it from the stream in iphoto.
similarly, deleting a photo from the photos app on the icloud website does not delete it from the iphoto photostream if i had already opened iphoto and thus the album had already been updated (though if i delete the photo from the beta website before opening iphoto, it won't show up in iphoto since it was deleted from photostream before iphoto updated from photostream).
so, as it stands - my iphoto only sort of syncs with photostream. is everyone experiencing this? i'll be honest - i still don't get the new icloud drive and photos, so maybe the issue i am having is exactly what the photos app for osx is intended to correct when it comes out next year. or am i just wrong in how i think the syncing is supposed to function?

I can't delete photos from photostream

I'm totally freaking out because I have some really BAD photos on my photostream. I don't even know how they got there. I deleted them from my computer soon after uploading them and I deleted them from my camera, but when I try to delete them from my photostream by selecting a photo and then hitting "delete" I just get an error beep. No message, no disappearring photo, nothing. What is wrong? I don't have any other photostream enabled devices.

Kari,
what is your MacOS X version and iPhoto version?
If you cannot delete photos from the iLifeAssetManagement folder, then you have a permissions problem. You should be able to do that. Try to fix the permissions for that part of your User Library.
Navigate again to the iLifeAssetManagement folder as described above. Then select the Folder and press ⌘I (clover leaf, capital letter I) for "Get Info". You shoud see an ifo panel like this:
Disclose the "Sharing & Permissions" brick by pressing the disclosure triangle. Press the padlock in the lower right corner and enter your administrator password. Make sure your user account .....(Me) has Rad &Write permissions, change the permissions if necessary. Then click the padlock and select to apply to enclosed items.
Then try again, if you now can delete photos from the Stream.
Regards
Léonie

Does deleting a photo from my iPhone also delete it from my iPhoto Library?

I need to make room on my iPhone and so need to delete some pictures from it. However, I have not yet manually downloaded all the pictures from my iPhone onto my iPhoto library but hope that they are their via Photostream. Will deleting a photo from my phone also delete it from iPhoto?

iPhoto is self contained by default and once a photo is in an event making changes outside of iphoto has no effect
MyPhotoStream is a cloud based sharing (which can be set in the iPhoto preferences to automatically import from MPS into iPhoto) and changes from any device affect all other devices view of MPS - it does not affect photos that y=have been moved form M{PS to local storage - like importing to iPhoto does

Deleting photo from photostream = gone from my PC?

1. If I delete a photo from my Photostream album on my iPhone or iPad, will it delete it from the Photostream directory on my PC?
2. If I delete or move a photo from the Photostream directory on my PC, will it delete it feom all my iOS devices?
3. What happens to photos in the Photostream on my iOS devices after 30 days? Does it dissappear from my iOS devices?
If "yes", then will it dissappear from the Photostream directory on my PC too after 30 days?
Thanks.
Any document that describes these sync behaviors?

Now you've taught me something!! I just tested and you are correct.
#2 I tested and the answer is still NO.
#3 I've got pics in my photostream album on my iPhone that are more than a year old.
My original understanding of how this worked was from the first link I sent you:
Master photo library. On your Mac or PC.
Keeping a complete set of your photos on your Mac is as simple as turning on Photo Stream in iPhoto or Aperture. Every new photo you take appears in a Photo Stream album just as it does on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. But since your Mac has more storage than your iOS device, it automatically imports every picture from your Photo Stream into your photo library so you can edit, delete, and share the ones you want. Want to get the photos you’ve taken on your point-and-shoot or DSLR camera into your Photo Stream to view on all your other devices? The photos you import to your library from a camera or SD card are automatically uploaded to your Photo Stream. If you have a PC, you can auto-import and upload pictures, too. Just turn on Photo Stream, grab a camera, and start shooting.
