Ghost album on iCloud/Photos app

Hi guys!
Well, I can't solve this "bug".
A few days ago, I created a album on my Photos app in Yosemite (10.10.3). OK.
This album was sync with iCloud. OK.
I decided delete this album on Photos. And he was gone of Photos, apparently. But in iCloud, NOT. Days passed, and I saw this album on a app in my iOS. So I searched on my Photos and the album showed up. But only on search result, not in album list (physically). In my MBA (Photos app), same thing happened.
Please, I need assistance. I tried many solution, but without success.
I want and need DELETE this album.
I have iCloud Photo Library activated in both devices.
I hope I have been clear with my problem.
Thanks!
PS: Sorry by my english. I'm brazilian.

If you have the same problem be sure to also fill a bug report. The more reports Apple gets about this problem the better are the chances they solve this problem.
Yeah, a lot of users have a same problem, I guess.
I'll send this error on bug report page. This bug started for me on betas of Yosemite. Before, I don't saw it happens.
I hope Apple fix this on the next updates.
You could fix it in some other way?

How to create Album in iCloud Photos on Mac?

Anyone know how to create an album in iCloud photos on the Mac? It has a section for "My Albums" but I have no clue how to create one. I want to put all photos into named albums instead of just moments. I see how to do it on iPhone but it doesn't sync to the iCloud on Mac to look the same. Let me know what I am missing or not seeing here. Thanks

You cannot yet create albums in the iCloud Photos.app, only in the Photos.app on your mobile iOS 8 devices, or in the Photos.app for Mac that has yet to be released.

Can I organise photos into albums within iCloud Photo Library?

i Understand that edits / deletes etc in iCloud Photo Libary will be reflected on all my iOS devices but can I organise my photos into albums using iCloud photo library?
basically I want to take photos on my iPhone, review them on my iPad, delete the ones I don't want and keep the good ones in a relevant album (e.g. "Summer holiday 2014"). Then I want to be able to see identical albums on both my iPad and iPhone. From what I've seen so far, when I create an album and save a photo to it then that album is only local to that device?
please help.

Are you saying it showed 800 photos before turning off iCloud photo library or that the 800 photos disappeared after you enabled iCloud photo library for the first time, the distinction is quite important.

Creating Albums in the Photo App

How do I create albums in the photo app on my iPad if I don't have a Mac or pc to sync to?

With iOS 5+ you should get an Edit button at the top of the Albums screen in the Photos app which lets you create new albums, and you can then copy your photos into those new albums - the photos are only copied or pointed to by those new albums, so if you delete the original photo on your iPad then it is also deleted from all albums that you've copied it into.

Hi LoboCatholic,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are desscribing. I am not certain that this will address your specific issue, but if you are having photo organization issues in iOS 8 on your new iPhone 6, you may find the following article helpful:

Albums in iCloud photo library

Can I create albums in iCloud Photo Library that are visib across all my devices?
ALso, can I add photo albums from my PC(not taken on iOS device) to my library?

When I drag albums into the correct order in Photos for Mac, they show up in reverse order on the iOS devices. Thus there seems to be a bug in either iOS 8.3, OS 10.10.3 or iCloud Photo Library.
The browser version of iCloud Photo Library (icloud.com) is currently updating. I am waiting to see which way my albums are sorted there.
There is no promise at all, or documented anywhere, how sorting of library items will sync across the devices. This has been haphazard when syncing iPhoto Libraries - synced faces not sorted, synced events not sorted, etc. So it is at least a step in the right direction, in Photos that the albums are sorted at all.

Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll and its using alot of space.how do i delete them?

Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll. One is called Photo Library, and the other is called iphone. It's using alot of space and I don't know how to delete them. Please HELP!!

those are photos that have been synced to your phone from your computer. plug in your phone to your computer, open itunes, select 'photos' tab from the top, and uncheck 'sync photos'
this will erase the photos from your phone that are not in the camera roll

Syncing selective Albums through iCloud Photo Library?

Hello, I would like to know whether there is a way to sync selective Albums through iCloud Photo Library? For example, I want album A and B to show on my iPhone but want to see all albums on my Mac. Is this possible?

I don't think so... looking to do this myself...

HT6378 How to copy iPhoto albums to iCloud Photo Library?

I have several years of photos in my iPhoto library. How do I copy these into iCloud Photo Library, retaining all my albums? I don't want to just copy all the photos without keeping my organization.

After having upgraded all devices to latest version, I wonder how do you get now the Mac iPhoto library into iCloud Photo library? iCloud Photo Library setting has been enabled on all devices.
iPhoto on your Mac is not supposed to work with iCloud Photo Library. The new "Photos" app for the mac will be able to do it. The release of this app has been announced for "Early next year".
For now, only your mobile devices can upload to iCloud Photo Library. So you have to upload your photos to the mobile devices to get them into iCloud Photo Library Beta.
That is not easy, because you cannot upload from your iPhoto library to your iOS 8 devices using iTunes with iCloud Photo Library Beta enabled on the device. It will disable syncing photos with iTunes. As long as you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta, mail the Photos to your devices or upload using Photo Stream.

Share an album using iCloud Photo Library

Hello.
I'm currently using the iCloud Photo Library and it's great.
But, I want to share an album (or just a few photos). But iCloud Photo Library does still not allow to share an album.
So, I want to use a Shared PhotoStream Album. And it seems that the iPhone is uploading my files (photos and videos) to the Shared PhotoStream.
Tell me if it is right... In fact, why the phone is re-uploading the videos/photos if there are already uploaded to my iCloud Library ?
Best regards,
Alexis

If I want to share some pictures and videos, I have to specify which photos, album and person... Yes, of course. But when I want to validate the creation of the album, I'll have to wait a long time, in particular if my Wifi is slow. In fact, if the video is already uploaded in the iCloud Photo Library, Apple should simply copy/paste it in the Share Album...

How to get existing albums to iCloud photo library

My boss is a home builder and he needs albums of homes across his devices and I'm looking for a solution for getting the albums of photos across the devices. Any thoughts? The photos are currently synced from iTunes and when I turn on iCloud Photo Library, it says its going to delete those photos. Whats the best way to get them in the mix?

Given that it is a beta product - which i certainly understand - it still doesn't seem to work as it has been described.
I have updated to iOs 8.1 on my iPhone 5 and iPad 4; I have approximately 1000 photos which are in albums on the devices, and which I have backed up to my computer. Here is what happens when I turn on iCloud photo library:
I get the warning about removing photos from the device and downloading optimized versions back to the device.
The upload begins, but only selects 50 or 60 photos, and NOT just limited to those which remain in my camera roll.
Only that upload lands on icloud.com. The other 900 or so just seem to drop into space, and can only be found on my computer.
Only those 50 or 60 are downloaded back to the device.
I swear with great vigor and volume, and restore my computer back up to the device.
I have the sense that there is some obvious step I'm missing, because this just does NOT seem to way this service is supposed to work, and I would think even a beta would work as described. But I've tried this multiple times on both devices, with the same result. I had great hopes that iPL would work as it seemed to be described and get me out of backing up to my computer, to Google Plus, and to Onedrive. Apparently not, at least not yet.
Would be deeply grateful for any advice.

How do I change the cover photo of an album in the Photos App?

Hi,
in iPhoto you can change the cover art of an album or journal (but apparently not of a shared photo stream?!).
But how do I change the cover photo of a shared photo stream I created in the iOS 6 Photos app? It seems to be the first photo in that stream but I want to use another photo as the cover / key photo of that shared stream. Is it possible at all?
Thanks,
Stefan.

Which iPhoto are you referring to? iPhoto on your mobile device or iPhoto on your Mac? If on your Mac you'll need to change the date of the photos in the Event via the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option:
This will change the date of all selected photos in the Event and thus change the date range of the Event.
Or you can use the Photos ➙ Adjust Date & Time menu option and change just one or two photos which can also change the date range of the Event.

Why are Albums missing from the Albums "tab" in Photos app?

I just upgraded to the new version of OS X with the new Photos app. All of my photos transferred over to the new app correctly, but not all of my Albums are showing up in the new Albums "tab" in the Photos app.
For instance, my "Honeymoon" album does not show up on the Albums "tab," but when I search for in the Photos app it will appear.
How do I get all of my Albums to show up on this tab?
Additionally, does anyone know how to change the "timestamp" on photos?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Terence,
I appreciate the reply, but that did not solve my issue. Several of my albums are still "missing" from the list, even though I can find them when I search:

Photo albums in iCloud/Photo Stream?

Hello everybody,
is it possible to create photo albums in iCloud?
I would like to have albums of my last trip's photos uploaded into iCloud, so that I can access them from my iPhone/iPad without using up the devices' limited storage space. Uploading photos into the Photo Stream just results into "one big album", without any structure....
I love the comfort of iPhoto and iCloud and cannot believe Apple is not offering this basic cloud feature.
Thank you for your help!
Makusuto

have you looked at a shared PhotoStream for thos photos? that way you can share different sets of photos - much like albums

I have several Albums in my Photo app. Is there a way to download all contents in one album only to my computer?

I have several Albums in my Photo section in my iphone.
I want to be able to transfer a specific album only when syncing to my computer. So that all the pictures are already organized in one album when I transfer it.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!

Please, please, please... I wonder if the solution of deleting the Podcast App and using the Music App again would work. My favorite sports radio station splits up their podcasts by DJ (logical), but I want to listen to all podcasts from one day from all DJs. No longer automatic :(
Apple developers, if you read this please add this feature - you had it in Music App.
