Download Photo from Photo Stream shared by others

How can I download the photos from Photo Stream shared by my friend to my iPhoto Library?

I could not find the photos in both "Photos" view or "Event" view.
You have to look in the "iCloud" view. It is in the "Shared" section. This section may be hidden. Hover the mouse to the right of the caption "Shared". there is a hidden Show/Hide control.

  • In iOS8 not all my photos automatically downloading (Photo Streaming) to my PC

    Only some of my Photos are downloading (Photo Streaming) from my iPhone6 to my PC?

    You have a couple of options to get them in your photo stream:
    Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot.  This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
    Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll.  This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once.  Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll.  These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream.  (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)
    Or, you can add them to a shared stream and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  The shared stream will appear on your iPad and you can either leave things this way, or save them to the camera roll on your iPad and delete the shared stream.  They won't be in your photo stream but they will at least be on your iPad.

  • Photo stream sharing

    It seems from everything I read that this new option in IOS6 is all about sharing specific pictures into what Apple calls a "stream".  What I was really hoping for was that I could share my photo stream that is on my phone with my wife's icloud account/devices and my son's.  This way as soon as I take a picture with my iphone my wife and son can see the picture. 
    Is this available and I am just not finding how to use it or am I looking for something that doesn't exist?  Hate to say this but I thought this feature would compete with the Samsung photo sharing commercials that I constantly see and am getting really tired of watching/ignoring.

    If you have the settings for iCloud already configured, there's a sub-secton in the iCloud settings for Photo Stream. In that section there's an option to enable your own Photo Stream and/or enable Shared Photo Stream.
    Once you have iCloud configured and enabled Shared Photo Stream you'll be able to select some pictures, choose who to share them with, give the Shared Photo Stream a name and then publish it. You can go back later and add more pictures to that Photo Stream. The Shared Photo Stream does not automatically share your entire Photo Stream.

  • Photo stream sharing in iPhoto 9.3.2

    Maybe I'm just confused ... But isn't Mountain Lion and this iPhoto update supposed to support Photo Stream Sharing? Photo Stream seems to work the same as it always has, i.e. just as a 30 day distribution channel to all of my devices.
    Anybody know how to enable sharing the photo stream from within iPhoto? It doesn't seem particularly intuive assuming e feature is enabled. Is it a setting in Mountain Lion perhaps?

    http://www.apple.com/icloud/coming-soon/
    The iCloud coming soon link under the Shared Photo Streams mentions "Friends using iCloud on an iOS 6 device or a Mac running Mountain Lion get the photos delivered immediately in the Photos app or iPhoto."
    Fingers crossed this is referring to that sharded photo streams will automatically load into Photos...

  • HT5902 Photo stream sharing w/iPhone 4S & iPad mini

    My new iPad mini is not showing the photos from my iPhone4S . I have the cloud settings on for photo stream sharing on both the iPhone  4 and the iPad mini. What am I doing wrong? I did reboot both devices.
    Thank you!

    Photostream only shows photos taken after Photostream is turned on. Also photos are not added to Photostream until the Camera app is exited.

  • No metadata in Photo Stream shared libraries

    After uploading images to a Photo Stream shared library, I noticed they do not inclue the IPTC caption, keywords and other metadata, making the process virtually useless. All images are referenced files in Aperture 3.4.5, under Mac OS 10.8.4, with "write metadata to masters" applied. How can you include metadata in Photo Stream shared libraries?
    Thanks!

    Eric,
    Now I see - you are asking about "Shared Photo Stream" - I was confused by shared "libraries".
    With the "Shared PhotoStream" the only data I am receiving from friends are the EXIF tags - GPS, lens, aperture, etc, none of the IPTC.
    When I want to send annotations, I add a comment by pressing the call out badge.
    My standard IPTC metedata is also absent after choosing the "Export > Version…" command, and opening the file in the Preview app.
    Do you mean, when you are exporting an image from the Photo Straem, or any image? With File > Export > Versions and exporting an image from the library with IPTC as a jpeg, these tags will all show in Previews Inspector.

  • Hi,   My photo stream used to work fine.  But after removing all the photos to separate folders in my computer, my new photos are no longer streaming to my PC.  They appear in the photo stream on my other devices - iPhone5 and iPad Mini.  It's just my PC

    Hi,
    My photo stream used to work fine.  But after removing all the photos to separate folders in my computer, my new photos are no longer streaming to my PC.  They appear in the photo stream on my other devices - iPhone5 and iPad Mini.  It's just my PC that's missing the photos.
    When I open the iCloud control panel, I cannot turn on the photos.  That option is ghosted.  I'm running on Windows 7 with iCloud 3.0.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?  All help is appreciated!  Thanks!

    Hi Kevinmvb,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below may be able to help you with this.  It sounds like you may have moved your photos out of the Uploads folder where they need to reside.

  • Download photo stream from Iphone to Mac

    I have the new Iphone 4s have not been able to use Icloud to download my photos in photo stream to my Imac. I have Iphoto 09 version 8.1.2 so I assume I would need to upgrade my Iphoto on the Mac but is there any way I can import my 400 plus photos in my Iphones photo stream to my Mac. It will not work when I try to sync the two.

    I have 484 pics in camera roll.hooked my Iphone using camera image. Clicked import all and pictures seemed to be downloading but they still don ot appear in Iphoto. I clicked import to "Iphoto" I clicked import all and numerous pictures appear to be downloading then screen comes back with import all button again. I must not be doing something correctly

  • Photo stream sharing? Where do you subscribe to other's photos?

    Found someone else's pics on my iPad. How did this happen?

    I read in the icloud guide about the photo stream. It says to enter someone's email to share photos with them...My daughter is two. Is there another way she could have subscribed?

  • Photo Stream/Sharing Photos....

    I'd like to be able to upload one of my albums in iPhoto, to the iCloud but haven't figured out how to do this, without my iPhone wanting to to upload *all* 4,000 photos to the cloud (I turned Photo Stream on). I don't want all of my photos in the cloud as I hear that once they are in the cloud and you delete, the photo(s) gets deleted from all devices. I simply want to upload one album to my iCloud so that I can access it from another (PC) computer.
    Any guidance appreciated.

    Thanks Larry-how do I set this up so that I can upload/share my iPhoto album (*is* it possible to share *one album* or will it just import/allow me to share all 4,000 photos)-I don't want *all* photos shared-just one album in particular.
    Do I set this up on the iPhone? or just on my Macbook Air? At present, my iPhone is set up this way:
    Photos & Camera: iCloud Photo library-off
    My Photo stream-off
    Upload burst photos-off
    iCloud photo sharing-off
    Summarise photos-on
    I'd appreciate some guidance as to which settings to have on, and which to have off.
    Many thanks!

  • Add to a Photo Stream shared with you

    We have set up a photo stream to share among family members. Since I created the photo stream, and then shared it with others, and did not make it public, when I go to add a photo I can see the names of the photo streams which I can choose from. So why when a family mamber who has accepted the invite and who can see the photo stream, NOT add to it? When they go to add a photo, they get no list of available streams shared with them. Am I missing something obvious here? Can multiple people not add to the same stream???

    only the owner of the shared stream can add photos to it.  Others can set up their own shared streams for you to view.

  • Photo Stream Sharing and Apple IDs?

    In order to share a Photo Stream so that it automatically keeps friends and family updated, the person invited to the stream must have an Apple product as well as an Apple ID related e-mail address.
    Most Apple IDs are the same as Apple e-mail addresses. However, do I need their actual Apple ID primary e-mail, or will Photo Sharing accept any Apple ID associated e-mail?
    According to this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 I should be able to associate multiple e-mail addresses with my Apple ID after I have verified a primary e-mail address, and then theoretically use any of them to invite that person to a photo stream.
    Anybody know if this is the case?
    Unfortunately, you cannot add one of your own aliases or alternate e-mail addresses to a shared stream, so I have no way to test this ...

    My Apple ID and iCloud account email are, for some reason, different -- somehow, iCloud still has a @me.com email address listed as my account email, whereas the rest of Apple services correctly shows the primary email for my Apple ID. 
    Perhaps this is why, but I can't receive any Photo Stream invitations sent to my Apple ID / primary email.  I only see the invites when they are sent to the old @me.com address listed under iCloud, or to the @icloud.com address that was automatically assigned when me.com transitioned to icloud.com.
    Can anyone suggest a way I can fix this situation?  Hopefully I should be able to change the email address associated with my icloud.com account to match my Apple ID primary email, but I can't figure out a way to do this.
