Error enabling photo stream "iphoto was unable to connect to Photo Stream"

Whenever I try to enable Photo Stream, it times out after awhile, and I get the following error: "iPhoto was unable to connect to Photo Stream." (see below [1]). I "tcpdump" shows that the computer is trying to open connections to akamai (unrelated?) but not apple. I am using iPhoto 9.2 build 626.
There is one oddity in this scenario : I have one iCloud account that I am trying to use between three computers. I was able to register iPhoto on my mac book pro, but it is failing on my second.
thanks in advance,

Good catch, nifmus. I'm kicking myself for not checking system.log earlier! I have very similar messages in mine.
By any chance is your Library folder (or part of it) relocated to a separate disk? Or your entire home folder? I have part of my Library folder on a SSD for speed, but my home folder and some of the larger Library subdirectories are on a regular disk because they wouldn't fit on the small SSD. It's all tied together with symbolic links, and without problems... until Photo Stream came along and didn't like it.
I knew that sandboxd was involved somehow, but your post prompted me to focus on it. It's definitely the problem here. I found the following sandbox profile file inside the iPhoto application bundle:
/Applications/iPhoto.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/PhotoStreamAgent.app/Conten ts/Resources/PhotoStreamAgent.sb
Inside this file are a bunch of definitions to control what PhotoStreamAgent is allowed to do. There are a bunch of lines under an allow-file-write* declaration which should allow PhotoStreamAgent to write to the above files listed in your log. Lines such as:
(home-regex #"/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement")
(home-regex #"/Library/Preferences/com\.apple\.iLifeAssetManagement\.crash\.plist(\.[^/]+)? $")
And many others. In my case, I suspect that the problem may be related to the fact that the final absolute path of those files may differ from what you'd get if you just substituted my home directory in for "home-regex" since I have stuff relocated around. Although since I was able to get it working with a blank home directory, also put in place via a symbolic link (so the final path differs), I'm not 100% sure of this.
What I do know right now is that there is a quick "hack" that fixed it for me. I don't like the hack and would strongly recommend against it, because it's likely to break the next time there's a software update for iPhoto. But it works until I can find a permanent solution.
To make it work, I edited the above file and changed the second line from "(deny default)" to "(allow default)". This, of course, defeats the whole purpose of the sandbox by allowing PhotoStreamAgent to do anything it wants, but it also allows stuff that is really supposed to be allowed but fails anyway for us.
If you want to try this, it helps to be familiar with the unix underpinnings of OS X. There's probably a way to do it in the normal graphical user interface, but as a longtime unix guy, I just jumped to the command line and did a "sudo vi (that long filename)". To do it via the gui method, you'll have to navigate to that folder in Finder (quickest way is to hit Cmd-Shift-G and copy/paste the path, or right-click iPhoto and "Show Package Contents", then drill down to the file), edit the file, save a copy (because you don't have permission to modify it), then copy the new version over the old (it will ask for an admin password).
Again, I don't recommend this because it's likely to break in the future and defeats the security that Apple intended with the sandbox, but it's a quick fix. I'll continue to investigate as I have time, trying to find out precisely what's causing the failure with the default sandbox profile.

IPhoto was unable to connect to photo stream

When I try to enable Photo Stream I get the error message that is the title of this post. How do I fix this?

Hi LN,
It's iPhoto 9.2.1
In iCloud System Preference I selected the Photo Stream button but when I go to iPhoto to enable it there it fails with the message "unable to connect to Photo Stream" and when I go back to iCloud System Preference I find that the button has been UNselected.
Yes, it was working happily on all my devices. The problem cropped up after I did a reset on my iPhone. I don't know what that has to do with it, though, because both it and my iPad are happily connected to Photo Stream and pics I take with my phone show up on my iPad.
Thanks!

TS1277 "iPhoto was unable to connect to Photo Stream" error after upgrading to mountain lion

Has anyone gotten this error after upgrading to mountain lion on a computer that already had a user setup on it?
My iphoto was working with photostream and now it will not connect at all.
I ran fix disk permissions and once it showed up in iphoto, photostream was loading and then it disappeared again.
help!

FWIW I fixed mine when I realised I'd probably downloaded iPhoto using an AppleID from the App Store but logged into iCloud with a different AppleID. I deleted iPhoto and it's related files (but not the iPhoto Library) using CleanApp, entered the App Store with my usual AppleID and downloaded iPhoto again. Once the App Store, the downloaded iPhoto and iCloud logins were the same iPhoto Stream worked again.

iPhoto was unable to connect to iCloud photos on my Mac. How do I solve this?

absolutely no idea sicne you provide no information
Best guess is to upgrade to iPhoto '11
Maybe if you provided some information including versions of iPhhoto and of the OS, details of exactly what you are doing, details of whathappens that keeps you from connection

Aperture was unable to connect to Photo Stream

Aperture was unable to connect to Photo Stream. Help!

That didn't work for me. However I found an alternate fix. You just need to move ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement to the trash and then reboot, and it should work.

IPhoto says "unable to connect to Photo Stream"

So I just re-did my OS on my iMac, so everything was started from a clean slate.
I started adding user accounts, and had no problems whatsoever setting up my iCloud and PhotoStream in iPhoto. With that being said, after creating my moms user account, adding her iCloud, iPhoto says "unable to connect to photostream"
Any thoughts or ideas as to why it would say that?
Thanks!

Everything is where it should be After giving up last night for a bit I went to bed and decided to try it again this morning and suprisingly it worked. This was after I left all the Keychain Access items with the AppleID deleted.
Thanks!

IPhoto was unable to connect to iCloud Photos

I have iPhoto 7.5.1 on Mavericks 10.9.2 on an iMac. To try to fix another iPhoto issue (Home Sharing not showing iPhoto albums - a Fetching... permissions issue I thought), I created another admin, logged in as the new admin deleted my admin, saved the folder, and restored my admin user.
Everything was fine, but now I cannot set up any photo streams or shared photo streams in iPhoto. I go to System Settings and enable Photos for my iCloud/Apple ID account and it does a "setup" and the Photos box is checked.
But when I'm in iPhoto -> Preferences -> iCloud and try to set up iCloud sharing, it starts enabling and then stops with this. When it does this, it also unchecks the Photos item in System Settings.
And the same process when I want to share a photo in iCloud, go through the setup again in a separate window with a Use iCloud button, but clicking the button shows the Enabling iCloud Photos... dialog like above but NO error message and no iCloud area appearing under SHARED and the setup window just stays there. And I can repeate that over and over and no error message but no iCloud (although it UNCHECKS the Photos item in System Settings like above)! And then I clicked No Thanks, and all my existing shared streams disappeared.
What can I do to enable iCloud in iPhoto?

A iMac restart fixed this issue (but still cannot view iPhoto photos or albums on Apple TV - Home Sharing Photos Suddenly Not Working)

Iphot is unable to connect to photo stream

I restarted my computer, and redid icloud settings

Aperture unable to connect to photo stream

Aperture 3 and Photostream were working fine for me but now it's not. I think this started happing after Apple replaced the logic board and video card in my 2008 iMac. I'm using Lion and all software is fully up to date. I have photostream enabled in the mac icloud settings and turn it on in the aperture settings. It spins for a while and then says "aperture was unable to connect to photo stream", which also then disables photo stream in the icloud settings. I have uninstalled Aperture and all prefrences files using AppCleaner and reinstalled. I have also done some tricks which others have reported as working, such as logging out of icloud and then logging in as a different user and deleting preference files from ~/Library. I have also tried creating a fresh Aperture library. So far nothing has worked. If I look at the console I get a crash log caused by the PhotoStreamAgent that contains the following:

Well if this just started happening since the iMac was worked on by Apple you should contact Support. You should still be under warranty for the repair so they should take care of it.

EA3500 - Windows was unable to connect... (Win 7 and Win 8.1 have done this off and on)...

I recently purchased a Linksys EA3500 router and am using it as the sole router in my home network. I have primarily had three devices connected to the network computers/tablets - two running Win7 and one running Win8.1.
The first few days were OK but then the Win 8.1 system would not connect to the network (see the error message below). "Windows was unable to connect..." I tried the problem troubleshooter, power cyclilng the comptuer, power cycling the router. Updating the router firmware to the latest (it added a .1 at the end). Uninstalling and reinstalling wireless drivers on the computer. I've reset the router to factory defaults. I've run the router with and without wifi passwords.
This morning I was able to connect the Win 8.1 system to the network. Not sure what changed overnight. However, today I have had two instances of a different computer, one of the Win 7 systems, suffering the same problem. Different hardware. The Win 8.1 system is an Asus T100 tablet/netbook using a Broadcom 802.11abgn Wireless SDIO Adapter. The Win 7 system is a Dell E6540 laptop using a Dell Wireless 1506 802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz adapter manufactured by Atheros Communications, Inc.
Last night, when I was having problems with the Win 8.1 system, I should note that it worked fine with the 5 GHz network. The laptop, however, does not support 5 GHz and now that it's suffering the same problem my only work-around is a cellular hotspot.
I'm suspecting the router at this point. Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas what could be causing it, what I could do to fix it or what I might do to help diagnose the problem(s) ? I'm more than willing to run third-party software to analyze and better understand what is happening on a network level (I would actually like to understand as much as anyone is willing to get me started on).
If I am unable to determine why certain systems almost seem to become "banned" from my network while others are working just fine then I'm going to have to return this device and try something else.
Thanks,
Dave
I recen

Hi @daved31,
You are on the right track. Checking the Wireless MAC Filter is one of the troubleshooting steps. For 2.4 GHz frequency, the suggested channels are 1, 3, 6, 9 and 11. For the 5 GHz, I suggest to use the highest channel. Those channels will give you a better signal, just make sure that no other wireless device is using it to avoid wireless interference.
If only one wireless device is not connecting wirelessly, we should focus on the wireless device itself because we know that the router/access point is working since the other wireless devices are working wirelessly.
I suggest to delete preferred networks on the laptop. Here's the link that may help: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/GetArticle.aspx?docid=85537a14b0214be48217c733bba9ac65_Removing_Wirele...

Error: "The document information panel was unable to load"

Hello,
I have created a custom document content type that uses a specified word template for a sharepoint document library for contracts and offers, and added a few custom columns in the document library as well. The word template launches succesfully when creating a new item in the document library, but the problem arises when I add custom columns to the word template content type. When the document loads in Word, I get the following error: "The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to open. For more information, contact your system administrator." And in details:
"Document Information Panel cannot create a new, blank form.
Document Information Panel cannot open the form. To fix this problem, contact your system administrator.
Form template: http://servername/sitename/proppanel.xsn

Interestingly enough, I have two web applications running on the same server that I have tried to implement this on, and on the other it works flawlessly, meaning that the Document Information Panel launches successfully and I can edit the columns associated with that content type and store the values in a document library. I have also tried to save the DIP template from the working web application and use it as the default DIP template on the other application, but that doesn't work either.
I have also tried to browse through all options and configurations in the application settings in CA and SSP, but to no avail. Any suggestions about what might be causing this problem or how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

I have made the same thing that Kirikou has suggested and I was able to recreate the broken library. The problem is that Kirikou's way has failed on my Share Point staging installation:

Iphoto could not be connected to photo stream

hello
iphoto could not be connected to photo stream

Hello Adams Apple,
Generally the (0xE8000001) error results from USB timing issues. You mentioned that you're running a PowerBook G4. Does it have USB 2.0?
Open the USB section under Hardware in System Profiler. Do any of the USB devices listed in the USB tree indicate 480Mb/Sec? If the PowerBook is equipped with USB 2.0 ports, resetting power management on the PowerBook may reset the USB ports and as a result, resolve the error:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1431
If the PowerBook does not have USB 2.0 ports, it may be time to migrate your iTunes Library to the MacBook:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329
While the article is written for using an iPod to move the library, the information from the "Copy iTunes folder to iPod" step on down would apply to any external storage device. Just substitute your storage method wherever it mentions iPod.

The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service

I have upgraded from WSS 3.0 to SharePoint Foundation 2010. So far everything appears to be OK apart from my search.
When I attempt a search I get the following:
The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service.
I checked the Manage Database Update Status in Central Admin and noticed the following(an upgrade is required):
Also, I checked Manage Services on Server and noticed that the only search related service is 'SharePoint Foundation Help Search'.
If I go into Manage Service Applications and click new there is no option to add a search service.
Finally I tried PSConfig:
PS C:\Users\administrator.ACHESON> PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force

Hi,
SharePoint Foundation the search service should be installed by default. It's not the same as with 2010 Standard or Enterprise where you can create a "Service Application" for it.
Follow this article to configure SharePoint Foundation Search:
http://plexhosted.blogspot.com/2011/11/how-to-configure-sharepoint-foundation.html
Meanwhile, here is a thread which discusses the similar question:
Configuration of SharePoint Foundation 2010 Search

HP Laserjet 2820 - print spooler was unable to connect

Working in Microsoft 2003 and printer is on a wireless network. In over a year - never had a problem until 5 days ago an error message appeared when I attempted printing which stated... print spooler was unable to connect to your printer. This can be caused by your printer being turned off, the cable being unplugges, or being connected to a VPN, which will block your access to your local network.
Also, when I attempted accessing the Print Settings from HP Director, it would not open and gave an error message...An unknown error occurred. Make certain that the device's power cord is plugged in, the power is turned on, and that all cables are properly connected. Check the Troubleshooting tab or product documentation for more information.
Next, I thought I would delete the software and re-install. However - I no longer have the installation disk for the printer.I then tried changing the printer port to a standard port. That did not work.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
