Getting images into iPhoto photo stream. how?

I've imported an image from my desktop to iPhoto. i try to drag it to photo stream from the last import or events windows but photo stream won't accept it. how do i get it in there?

I ended up doing a manual rebuild. There must have indeed been a file or folder corruption or something. I will rebuild the albums, and it looks like everything will be fine. Thanks.

  • 2 iPhones and issues with photos into iPhoto Photo Stream

    Both my husband and I have new iPhones; we also have an iPad and iMac. I mention this only because I'm hoping to find a solution to a minor problem when our photos get imported to the Photo Stream. Some of our photos have the same file name - because they are coming from 2 different phones. The issue is when the photo stream is updating, we get a message saying there is a file (or files) with the same name - and we have to make a decision about keeping them or renaming them.
    Anyone know of a 'fix' for this....I mean, this will be an ongoing issue because he's at photo image # 523 and I'm at image # 347 (or something along those lines).
    Thanks!

    It sounds like you are both using the same Apple ID.
    You both need to have your own Apple ID for iCloud.

  • Trouble getting images into iPhoto 6

    I'm seeing some similar problems here, but not quite this one. I just upgraded from my old Powerbook to the MacBook Pro. My photos all seem to be in the right place (users/(my name)/pictures/iPhoto Library), but when I try to open iPhoto, I get a message saying "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto."
    So I hit "Upgrade", and I get a progress bar that says "Updating Photo Library." That completes, and the message says, "491 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library folder that are not a part of this photo library. Would you like to import them?"
    I've tried both "No" and "Yes". Either way, in just a couple of seconds I get another dialog saying "33 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library folder that were not imported. Would you like to import them?"
    Again, I've tried both "No" and "Yes". Either way, the dialog goes away, and I see a "Loading photos" message in the iPhoto screen. I have tried just letting this run, but no matter how long it goes, nothing happens, it just keeps saying the same thing with the spinning icon (I've let it run in the background for over a day).
    I've also tried rebuilding the photo library, as described on the support pages, but that didn't help.
    Can anyone help?

    I ended up doing a manual rebuild. There must have indeed been a file or folder corruption or something. I will rebuild the albums, and it looks like everything will be fine. Thanks.

  • How do I get photos in a specific iPhoto Album into my Photo Stream?

    How do I get photos in a specific iPhoto album into My Photo Stream so that I can use my Apple TV to show them in a slideshow on my TV?

    That is not possible - PhotoStream has no organizational capability - no albums or other organization
    With the correct software versions You can import from PS into an iPhoto event on your Mac either automatically (by setting the iPhoto preference to do that) or manually and then you can add the photos ot an iPhoto album and sync to Apple TV
    what version of iPhoto do you have? Is OS X 10.7.5 correct for your OS?

  • HT4910 How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream?

    How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream? It seems it is supposed to do it automatically , but it does not.

    Photos are normally uploaded automatically as long as you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed and have at least 20% battery life remaining.  (It doesn't require a manual iCloud backup first.)
    If yours are working, if you haven't already done so, try turning off photo stream, then turn it back on.
    Sometimes people have issues getting photo stream to work on their home wifi, even if other devices in the home seem to work fine.  To troubleshoot this as a possible cause, some things to try include:
    Power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then rejoin your wifi network.
    See if there is a firmware update available for your router.
    Change the DNS settings in your router to Google's Public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using)
    As a diagnostic step, go to a public wifi hotspot and take a photo, then wait a minute or so to see if it appears in your My Photo Stream album on your phone.  If it does, this confirms that the problem is with your home wifi.

  • How do I add old photos from my MacbookPro into my photo stream to view on my iPhone

    I'd like to add old photos saved onto my MacbookPro into my photo stream so that I can view them on my Iphone.
    I have tried selecting 'share' when looking at the photo in iPhoto - and then selecting to share it to my photo stream but i can't see it in the stream on either of the devices.
    Is there some sort of delay before uploading?
    Please help. Thank you

    That's what I was doing but they just don't seem to show up at all. Even when I drop and drag them from the iPhoto into the stream.
    Is there a limit on how many photos can be in the stream at one time?
    yes definitely. 1000.  THe oldest are deleted. THis may be your problem.

  • TS3989 How do I find out how a photo got into My Photo Stream?

    A photo appeared in My Photo Stream and I don't think it was taken with my iPad. It may have been taken by someone's iPhone and inadvertently got into My Photo Stream?
    I would like to see when (time and date) the photo was taken and with what device but I can't see properties on my iPad, nor when I connect my iPad to my computer.
    Any suggestions for how I can get this information?

        Chelantom, I know that would concern me just the same and we'd be happy to help figure this out. Any pending orders on the account would be listed within your notifications section when logging online to your My Verizon account. Do you see anything relating to your plan change within that section? Log into your my Verizon account here www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/myverizonlp/.

    Hey Juergen119,
    I would recommend syncing your photos from your computer to your iPad by using iTunes:
    iTunes: Syncing photos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    First, if you want to set it up to work via iCloud, I would check and make sure My Photo Stream is set up correctly on your devices:
    To use My Photo Stream you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    For complete iCloud setup instructions, visit How to set up iCloud.
    Then, once it is set up, you can upload your photos to My Photo Stream by following these directions:
    PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

    On your iOS device, you can remove photos from the Photo Stream view by turning off Photo Stream and then optionally turning it back on. You can do this at Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream.
    If you added any Photo Stream photos to other albums or the Camera Roll on your iOS device, you can locate and delete these photos manually.

    You will need to do that by syncing them with a computer and then syncing the computer with the iPad.

    Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4.  Ive got everything turned on to support the icloud function and my itunes shows syncing, but nothing. Any ideas what Im missing?  Thanks A Million!

    You can delete them from your phone by opening the album that contains them, tap Edit, tap the photos you want to delete, the tap Delete.  You can also import camera roll photos to your computer and delete them after importing as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • How do I delete photos in iphoto photo stream

    I cannot access my iPhoto photo stream to delete photos

    What is your iPhoto version?
    Have you perhaps the "Shared" section in the Library sidebar hidden?  Hover with the mouse to the right of the title "shared" to reveal the hidden Show/Hide control and click "Show" to reveal the iCloud in the source list.

  • Controlling image order in photo stream

    I'd like to understand how iPhoto/iCloud controls the order of images in the Photo Stream.  And specifically why does it seem to automatically reorder my images.
    Today I loaded of images into iPhoto from the last two weeks of travel.  The images came from several cameras with different file name sequences and clocks not all in sync.  I created an album with a few hundred and ordered them for continuity but not chronologically.  I then copied all the photos from the album to my Photo Stream, which was empty, and enabled streaming.  After a few minutes of sync, the images appeared on my iPhone, in my desired order.  Perfect.
    Several hours later I noticed that the image order had changed on my iPhone.  I went back to my laptop and found that the image order in iPhoto's Photo Stream had also changed.  (I think something like this happened before with MobileMe and I was able to rearrange images using a browser to access the MobileMe Gallery directly no way to do this with iCloud.)  I'd like to fix the order so that I can give a slideshow.
    I'm using iPhoto '11 version 9.3 on MacOS version 10.7.4.  I'm guessing this has something to do with file names or image chronology but a definitive answer would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    It sounds as though you are using the "set date and time" option instead of the "batch change" option. The set date and time option does indeed add the same amount of time to each photo as you set in the options.
    The batch change option allows you to set the time for the first photo in your selection and then add incremental periods of time according to your choosing to each supplemental photo.
    Note; you must place all the photos in the order you want them and then select them all before applying the batch change option.
