Duplicates in Shared Photostream in iOS Photos, Mac OS X iPhoto, AppleTV, but not iCloud Web

Just started using the shared Photostream feature today, and we noticed that the first shared Photostream we tried duplicated all the photos that were shared if viewed from iPhoto or AppleTV. The web site for the shared Photostream does have exactly the right pictures with no duplicates.
All versions of the software mentioned are the latest.
Background: I did have to turn on Photostream for iPhoto for the user, and the user had never used iPhoto Photostream before. We might have tried sharing once, then cancelled to get a better list of email addresses before sending out the invitation, but we didn't hit OK, only Cancel.

You know you're not talking to Apple here, right? Only other users, just like you.
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback is the route to Apple.

  • Photo albums appear in iPhoto & iTunes, but NOT iPhone

    Shot a bunch of pics with the iPhone. Imported into iPhoto - those libraries synced with iTunes & now I have five albums that appear in iTunes.
    Selected "Sync photo from iTunes" & checked the "all photos and albums" radio button. Sync progress completes without errors.
    No albums appear on my iPhone.
    Just says "camera roll".
    Why won't the albums sync?

    Try the selected albums options, or the selected events options, and check all the boxes.
    Note that while pics taken on the phone go into the Camera Roll, pics synced from the computer go in the Photo Library.
    Do you have 'albums' or do you have 'events'? By default, iPhoto imports pics as events; albums are manually created in iPhoto. If you have synced 'all photos and albums' checked in iTunes and you have no albums, the photos should still show up in the Photo Library.
    After you sync, what shows up in your Photo Library (with the generic sunflower icon)?
    EDIT: Ok, you tried that. In the Photos app, do you have a Photo Library?
    Also, what version of the iPhone OS and what version of iTunes are you running?
    You might see something like this:

  • My "places" in photos is working on my phone but not transferred to my iPad in Photo Stream even though the photos transfer. It used to work, so did I do something?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

  • HT201317 why are some of my photos in albums on my phone but not in photo stream

    Why are photos taken with iphone in "album" but not on photostream? All setting are on.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what are the pixel dimensions of the photos in question?
    did you import one library into another at any time?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • One of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv.

    I own about 30 movies on my apple tv and one of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv. How do I fix this issue and get it to show up on my apple tv?

    Two things to check
    1st
    Settings
    Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    AccountsHow many accounts are there?
    2nd
    From Home screen press Mail app
    Press the top left button (next to Inbox)
    You'll see all the Inboxes for the accounts present
    You'll know either way whether one or more accounts has been setup.
    SIDE NOTE: Not too sure about MobileMe though, might be integrated with iCloud, not sure.

  • I purchased an album from the itunes store on my ipad2 thinking i could retrieve it from my windows pc. I have turned on home sharing and can see my pc library from the ipad but not vice-versa. Is there any way to transfer the album from my ipad library?

    I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?

    Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

  • I sent photos out of my IPhoto library, but they do not appear in my "Sent" folder on my GMail although that mail account was in the "From" field?

    I sent photos out of my IPhoto library, but they do not appear in my "Sent" folder on my GMail although that mail account was in the "From" field?

    If you're using iPhoto as your email client a sent version is not created.  You need to BCC yourself in order to get a copy.
    The better solution is to use Mail as your email client in conjunction with Gmail.  This will give you a sent copy, better access to your contacts and, if so desired, photo templates to use via Mail's stationary feature.

  • IMovie seems to have developed a glitch. When i try to import photos they show in the timeline but not in the movie.

    iMovie seems to have developed a glitch. When i try to import photos they show in the timeline but not in the movie.
    Any ideas?

    You are probably looking in the wrong place - all photos in Photo view and in event too unless you have a corrupted library
    most common cause of your not finding them is bad sort - view menu ==> sort events
    Nest most common cause is a bad data/time on the camera - this can be corrected using a smart album to find the photos from that camera and then using using the adjust time/date command to fix the bad ones
    YOu can alwasy find the event a Photo is in by selecting it and selecting show event

  • TS2972 i can't find my SAG/AFTRA screener that i downloaded.  It is on my computer.  My photos are streamed to the AppleTv, but the TV says "you haven't purchased any movies"  it's considered a rental.

    i can't find my SAG/AFTRA screener that i downloaded.  It is on my computer.  My photos are streamed to the AppleTv, but the TV says "you haven't purchased any movies"  it's considered a rental.

    I am now having the same problem - I cannot find the SAG/AFTRA screener that I just redeemed - however, it is showing up as a rental on my itunes (on my PC).  But it is not showing up yet on my Apple TV.    It also has NOT yet finished downloading - so does that mean once the screener is done downloading entirely, then it will appear on my Apple TV?  

  • I cannot get time machine (with airport) to back up my mac. It worked previously but not now. It is working on my macbook. the message i get is "Time Machine couldn't back up to '(airport network name)'"

    I cannot get time machine (with airport) to back up my mac. It worked previously but not now. It is working on my macbook. the message i get is "Time Machine couldn't back up to '(airport network name)'" Any help is appreciated.

    OS is important.. What OS is on Mac and what is on the working macbook?
    Was the Airport setup from the Macbook? That might be why it works from there..
    Does the AE show up in Mac airport utility?
    Can you mount the disk in finder and copy files to it/from it??
    Did you try a TM reset after mounting in Finder.. so you know it is available?
    What about a network reboot.. does it work post a restart for a few minutes/hours/days???

  • Shared photostream - only my photos show up on PC

    I have a shared photostream set up with some family members. Everything works great on our Apple devices but on my PC, the shared folder only shows photos that have been shared by me. Is it possible to show all of the shared photos on my PC?

  • Photo stream is showing up in iphoto recent but not web and I am not able to join the shared photo stream.  all of my software is updated.  can someone tell me how to get photo stream in the web source list? thanks!

    Can someone help me get Photo Stream to appear under Web in the iPhoto Source List? I have updated all my software.  iPhoto 11, Mac OS X 10.7.5  All of my preferences are checked.  I am able to see the shared Photo Stream on my iPad, but not my Mac.  The Mac iPhoto photos from the shared photo stream are appearing in the Photo Stream (under Recent), but I thought they would appear as a shared Photo Stream in its own file/album (like on the iPad and iPhone)  - labeled with the shared Photo Stream's title.  Is this supposed to happen on the Mac?  Thanks!

    So you are saying for it to do what i want: shared photo stream to appear in web then i need to upgrade.
    Yes
    Does that mean i purchase the new software an it's not just an update?
    Yes
    Your profile indicates your running 10.7.5.  For shared Photo Streams you need to be running 10.8.2 or later: The following is from  iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    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
    So you'll need to upgrade to Mt. Lion.
    iPhoto requirements are free updates for iPhoto '11

  • Have latest updates for mac and iPhoto.  several of "events" now show as grey squares with a plan tree, no thumbnails when scrolling over as before.  Photos show when clicking on icon but not visible as a group.  What gives?

    Have the latest updates on my iMac and iphoto.  Recently several "Event" folders have turned to grey with a palm tree in the corner.  Before there was a "key" photo to help identify the event.  The event title is still at the bottom of the square but no key photo.  When i click on the icon, the photos that it contained show up, but when closed again disappear.  How do I correct this annoyance?
    Also:  One event that contains about 12 photos has a problem---some of the photos when clicked will enlarge and show individually on the screen and print out, while others when clicken on show a black background with an exclamation mark and will not print.  Thoughts?

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database
