How can i share my iphotos on macbook via icloud so i can see them on all my other devices?

Hello there, if anyone can help..
I have a macbook (older white one) and just brought an ipad mini and want to view all my pictures stored in my iphoto account on my macbook on my new ipad mini. I have looked at forums and instructions and there is no option to stiech the photos on within my macbook so cant seem to do it.
I am currently operating on Mac OS x version 10.6.8 which tells me is the latest version when i try to do a software update.
Can anyone help me to do this please?

Would this be a different OS as currently on snow leopard I think
Yes, Snow Leopard is Mac OS X 10.6.8. You need OS X 10.7.4 Lion or later to use iCloud.
OS X 10.9 Mavericks is the latest version and is free. Your Mac is new enough to run it, so I'd recommend updating to Mavericks. Check for compatibility with any important existing applications you use first.
what one will be compatible with sharing iPhoto's on iCloud?
As I mentioned above, you need Mac OS X 10.7.4 or later to use iCloud. Mavericks is recommended.
Also will this update wipe my macbook of its current data or just stay the same with only the operating system changing?
It'll just update the operating system, but you should ALWAYS BACK UP before updating the operating system - just in case...

    Connect the iPad to your MBP and open iTunes.  In the photos section of your iPad in iTunes you can choose selected albums, Events or the entire iPhoto library to sync to your iPad.

    There is a huge difference between sending email and sending messages.
    Yes, I believe you when you say you can only send messages to other Apple products.  The iPad is not a telephone, and therefore, it cannot text message.  It can only iMessage, which means it can send and receive messages to/from other Apple products if they are on WiFi or an iMessage capable cellular network.
    Email, however, is a whole different category.  I don't really think you can only exchange email with other Apple products only.  Make sure you have correctly identified the symptoms.

  • HT5557 I have ibooks on my ipad that were downloaded under an old itunes account that is no longer active.  How can I download these ibooks on other devices?

    ibooks were downloaded onto my husband's ipad under a different itunes account (a @me account that is no longer active or accessible).  he subsequently used our family itunes account.  The ibooks he originally bought that are on his ipad I cannot access and I would like to be able to download these onto my ipad to read.
    How can I access these books on my ipad?

    Your best bet may be to try and connect that ipad to your itunes and go to file-devices-transfer purchases, and then see if you can add them to your device.  I doubt this will work however as they have DRM that will tell you they dont belong to the account you're using.
    It is likely you'll need to try and use the account they were purchased with to redownload them.

  • How can I connect my MBP to other devices?

    Hello,
    I have a Yamaha DVD Receiver ("Natural Sound", RDX-E700) and would like to connect it to my MBP so I can hear the my music from iTunes through the loudspeakers connected to the DVD Receiver. Every time I try it doesn't work, even if I switch to AUX mode or whatever... I have a cable which allows me to do so on the big TV and DVD player (also Yamaha), but not on my little Yamaha.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks

    Contact the manufacturer to make sure you meet all of the system requirements.

  • How Do I Share My Iphoto Library with another USer

    I have iPhoto5 on iMacG5. I share the computer with my wife and she has a seperate log in as a seperate user. My question is how to I share my iPhoto Library and albums with her on her user page?
    iMacG5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The article states "Make sure you have read and write permissions for the folder and then apply this setting to all enclosed items."
    That's exactly what I'm doing. I'm giving EVERYBODY full read and write permission by "Ignoring Ownership" on an entire drive. Incidentally, this can also be done on a partition.
    An example would be you would be able to edit a photo that you have downloaded i your user but not the other user.<<<</div>
    My wife and I have been doing that on a regular basis for several years and have never had an issue.
    Read the last paragraph.<<<</div>
    You misunderstood the wording. I'm NOT using the "Shared" folder. I've created something comparable to a really really big floppy!

  • The iWork Public Beta allowed me to share Keynote presentations with anyone via the web. How can I share a Keynote presentation online via iCloud? Must the presentation be downloaded to view?

    The iWork Public Beta allowed me to share Keynote presentations with anyone via the web. Now Apple tells me the Public Beta is being replaced by iCloud. How can I share a Keynote presentation online via iCloud? Must the presentation be downloaded to view?

    iCloud is not designed for sharing data with other people: you will need a third-party alternative such as DropBox or Sugarsync.

  • My MacBook Air is in a support profile for one of my Apple IDs while all my other devices are in a support profile for a different one of my Apple IDs; how can I combine under one?

    My MacBook Air is in a support profile for one of my Apple IDs while all my other devices are in a support profile for a different one of my Apple IDs; how can I combine under one?

    Actually, this can be done without merging Apple IDs, as I found just by trying this out: I went into the support profile for the Apple ID that had only my Mac listed. I then chose to disassociate the Mac from that Apple ID. I signed out and signed in using my other Apple ID (the one with all my other Apple devices). I chose to add/register a new device, entered my Mac's serial number, and now it is associated with all my other Apple devices under a single Apple ID. No merger of Apple IDs required.

  • HT201077 As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others. Only I can see them. How come others sharing this photo stream are not getting the new photos?

    As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others and I don't see the updated photos on my other devices. Only I can see them from the device that i've posted from. How come others sharing this photostream are no longer getting the new photos? My iphone (the device i'm adding from) shows 20 pictures in this shared photostream and yet 4 other people that I share this photostream album with and my ipad only show 12 photos. For the past week I keep adding photos thinking people will see them but it just won't update the new ones. Any ideas how to fix this?

    You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.

  • HT4059 How can I move a book from one device to another

    How can I move an iBook from one device to another

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:
