Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine.

Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine.  Can you tell me why Photo Stream will not stay enabled.  When I reboot, it will disable not to mention that it will not get any pushed photos.  Is there a 64 bit version?

Hello tw_mama,
I was looking into the issue you are experiencing and found an article that may shed some light on the subject. It's called iCloud: Account troubleshooting found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3988
This section in particluar:
I get an "Unsupported Apple ID" error when I try to sign in to iCloud from my iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
Depending on how you created your Apple ID, you may not be able to create an iCloud account with your current Apple ID. If your Apple ID works in the iTunes Store, App Store, Game Center, FaceTime, or with other Apple Services, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. Also, if you created your Apple ID while you applied for a job at jobs.apple.com, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. If you cannot use your Apple ID with any Apple Services, it might not be compatible with iCloud. Contact iCloud Support for assistance.
All the best,
Sterling

  • Problem with iCloud Photo Streaming to 3 OS6 devices?

    I have 3 OS6 devices with 3 different iCloud accounts, 2 iPhones and an iPod touch. Photo Stream will work between iPhone 1 and ipod touch and vise versa, but neither will connect by invite to the 2nd iPhone. The 2nd iPhone won't connect either to the other 2 devices?
    All settings are the same, The only possibilty I can think of is that the 2nd iPhone's iCloud account has become corrupted? Any suggestions?

  • Is anyone having trouble with iCloud email?

    I am using iCloud for all of my mail.  I use it on iCloud.com and also with iMail.  I use it for my iPhone, iMac and MacBook Pro.  For the past three days I have been having a terrible time receiving email from my personal friends.  I can get email from commercial entities like DirectTV, Facebook, ASPCA, etc. but nothing when my friends try to email me.  I have spent several hours on the phone with Apple advanced tech support but it's still not working and I am supposed to call them back today.  After changing many settings, the tech told me it might be a corrupt email address and we would completely remove my email address from my computer and type it in fresh which we did.  I then was able to send myself a test email and I did receive that.  I am still able to send and receive to myself.  I then went to my neighbor and did the same thing on his computer with my email address, removed it completely and then put it in anew.  Then I sent myself an email from his computer but it didn't work.  I haven't received the email.  I have asked several people to email me today.  I did not receive any of their emails but am still receiving emails from other entities.  A friend of mine said they are having trouble with iCloud but when I asked the tech, he said he wasn't aware of it.  So, I have no idea if it's something on my computer or if there is a problem with iCloud.  Can anyone help me out?  It's so discouraging.  Thanks much.
    By the way, this problem exists on all my products -- iPhone, MacBook Pro as well as my iMac

    I'm having the same problem, except I'm not receiving ANY email (not even from businesses etc).  This has been going on for a week now.  I had not upgraded my OS, so that cannot be the cause.  It was just suddenly not receiving emails.  I can send, but cannot receive.  I can log in to icloud.com but when I select MAIL, it will not load, and says application not availble.  Today, I opened Mail Preferences and added a email account using my same email address ([email protected]) and it worked fine, gathered all my missing emails.  But it was using the name iCloud instead of my name, and created a new mailbox for all the mail.  I want to use my mailbox I've used for years...so I deleted it.  It was just a test, but don't really know what was accomplished because my original email still does not receive mail. 
    Last week I had sent a msg to Apple Support about the problem, and got a reply...so I think they know there is a problem.  Perhaps they just don't know what the solution is so will not acknowledge the issue yet. 
    I'm still waiting for a solution, too.  Extremely inconvenient, most of us rely heavily on email.

  • I am having trouble with iCloud

    I am having trouble with ICloud adding songs to my computer.  The only playlist that they show up in is "recently added".  They will not show up in the library or any other playlists even if I try to move them.  I am on a PC with Win7 Pro.

    I have an iPhone and just goy I pad but no computer I'm trying to synch them together but having trouble with iCloud and I can't seem to subscribe for iTunes match from either devise

    You first have to subscribe to iTunes Match through iTunes on your computer and have your music library in iTunes uploaded/matched before you can enable it on your iOS devices (see http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/).  Without a computer you won't be able to use iTunes Match.

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • Why is iphoto having trouble with rotating photos all of a sudden?

    i've been using iphoto for a few years. suddenly it un-rotated all of my auto-rotated photos (which screwed up all of my face tags) and now when i upload new photos, if they auto-rotate during the upload they appear in the preview of a whole event, but if i double-click to see a vertical photo, or try to do a slideshow, i get the triangle with an exclamation point in it, indicating that something's wrong with the file. is anyone else having this trouble? or have any idea what to do?
    thanks...

    I've never used the Flickr feature so don't know if that as any bearing on the problem.  if you're satisfied with the newly "fixed" library you can delete the copy of the original library that you made. 
    However, since you're having problems with rotated photos you might try this and see if the new library has the rotated photos displayed correctly:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    If the rotated photos display correctly in this new library then the problem lies with the orther libraries being damages somehow.  You may want to stay with the new library even though the projects, i.e. books, etc. and keywords are lost. 
    If you have a lot of keywords in your current library and want to move them to the new library you can by doing this:
    1 - open the old library and select one photo.
    2 - type Command+K to brinb up the keyword pane.
    3  - click on all of the keywords that are not blue so that all of the keywords are blue.
    4 - export that photo to the Desktop via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option. Select Kind=JPEG and check the two check boxes regarding keywords, locations, etc.
    5 - open the new library with iPhoto and import the exported photo from the Desktop.  That will bring in all of the keywords so that you don't have to recereate them one by one in the new library.

  • I am having trouble with a photo book when I preview

    I am having trouble submitting a photo book because the images are showing up funny when I preview.  Can you help me to fix this problem?  I spent weeks making this as a gift.  Am so disappointed.

  • HT4858 Is anyone else having problems with shared photo stream URLs not updating after photos are added or deleted from a shared photo stream?

    I have made quite a few shared photo streams and love the idea of sharing easily with a variety of friends and family. The problem in having is that any modifications made to the shared photostream (adding/deleting pictures) are not updated in the URL I have sent to my family and friends. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream on your Mac.
    Happy Holidays

  • First day with Icloud photo stream; so many duplicate photos?

    Noob here! Just got my Ipad, Iphone and Mac on Icloud. I had to transfer many pics from windows (after much frustration trying to get my icloud working in windows I just copied them to a memory stick) and in the process have many duplicate photos in photo stream and probably a whole lot of other places. Is there any way I can scan for duplicates?
    Thanks for reading this 

    You can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager 
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
    Duplicate Annihilator
    iPhoto Applescript to Remove Duplicates - free
    I agree with Larry on  iPhoto Library Manager.

  • Help with iCloud/photo stream

    I am running with OS X 10.7.4 on my Mac Book.  I downloaded the newest version of iPhoto.  Can I use iCloud to enable photo streaming with my iPhone?  It is not connecting?

    Yes you can.  On your Mac go to System Preferences > iCloud.  Then sign into your iCloud account and turn on Photo Stream.  Then go to iPhoto > Preferences > Photo Stream to make sure it is enabled.
    On your iPhone go to Settings > iCloud and do the same.  Your iPhone will need to be connected to WiFi in order to start uploading your pictures to iCloud but after that is accomplished you should see them start popping up on your computer soon.

  • Sync iPhoto album with iCloud photo stream

    I have a couple of albums - used basically as categories.
    I want to be able to sync the albums with iCloud. I know you could just add the photos to an iCloud photostream, but it takes a couple extra minutes each time when you do that.
    So basically, I want my albums to be copied as iCloud albums, and then just updated automatically when I add a new photo to that album.

    Not possible.  Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • Trouble with sharing photo streams.

    Hello,
    A while ago my friend and I have created this shared photo stream album so we can stay in touch while I travel. Everything was working just fine but suddenly I noticed that the pictures I was sending weren't going through for some reason. So I tried sharing another one again.. But she is not receiving any of my emails and when she does, after pressing "Join this shared photo stream" it says that my photo stream isn't shared anymore. So now I can't share or anyone can share photo streams with me! I don't know why this is happening. I did some research and I couldn't find a topic for this problem. PLEASE HELP ME !!!! I AM DESPERATE!
                   Thanks in advanced.
