How do I share photo streams between iCloud accounts?

We have two iPhones and iPads with separate icloud accounts.
We want to share one Photo Stream but not the other.
We share a Mac but don't activate Photo Stream on iPhoto.
How do we share the (one) Photo Stream via the iPhone/iPad?
Thank you.

That's what Photostream is used for. 
Thanks for the responses.
What do you mean by this comment?
It's the current photos that I'm after - I thought thats what Photo Stream did.
Therefore I presume that means that only Albums or inidvidual photos can be shared?
Many thanks

    i have one imac. my wife and i each have our own user accounts and itunes library.  How do we share selected music between user accounts?

    To give other users read-only access to your library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.

  • How do I transfer photos from one icloud account to another?

    I recently switched back to iPhone when the iPhone 6 Plus came out.  I had the iPhone 4s before I got an android so it's been a while since having an iCloud account. I could not think of my password when logging into my iCloud account when starting up my new phone so I created a new iCloud account.  I FINALLY figured out my old password and was able to log in my old 4s phone and see my old photos and thought "WOW I need to save these somewhere." I cannot figure out how to get them off on my old iCloud account... I logged into my old iCloud account on my desktop and did not see those photos though.  I have photos on the old iCloud that cannot be replaced, such as photos of family members who have passed away since, PLEASE HELP.
    Is there a way to transfer photos over to my new iCloud account from my old one?
    Thank you

    If the contents that accumulated on the new phone while the spell of Alzheimer went away is not indispensable, perhaps the quickest way would be to reset and wipe the phone then reregister it to the original iCloud account so you would get all your old content/apps/etc. back.

  • HT4906 how can I delete photos from my icloud account

    I would like to free up space on my icloud account.  can I do that by deleting pictures?  How can I delete the pictures?

    This is the iPhoto for Mac forum. None of the services that use iPhoto in iCloud use up any of your space, so I suggest you try here:

  • How can we share e-books between 2 accounts?

    My husband and I both have Kobo accounts, Adobe DE accounts and 2 separate e-book readers (both Aluretek Libre's).
    How can we share books?
    cm

    One of you will have to buy the book first (and put on reader, I assume).  According to what Kobo Customer Care told me, with Adobe Digital Editions open that person then goes on the site the book was bought from, signs in, goes on purchase history and clicks on the book.  Hit Download epub or pdf, choose Open for Windows or Save for Mac, Adobe will show the book.  make sure you are in library view, plug the reader in and authorize the device.  Drag and drop the book into the reader icon that shows up under the Bookshelf items.  It should copy the file.  When done, eject using the safely remove mass storage device option.  After unplugging, it will process the new content.  I haven't done it yet, I just received the instructions.

  • How can i share ical with other iCloud accounts

    I have an iCloud account and use ical, my husband opened another iCloud account and i would like to share my ical with him on his iPhone

    Hey beachwhale,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you want to share a calendar from iCloud with another user. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a good one,

  • How do I share photos to non-icloud users via photo.app?

    There seems to be no "public website" option on photo.app
    Also, it's not documented here at all: iCloud: Create a shared album. This is pretty frustrating... I accepted the pitch to upgrade icloud storage so I could easily/seamlessly share & now it looks like they've yanked the feature that allows this. After spending 30 minutes trying to figure this out I'm left wondering how Apple managed to make such a simple task (see flickr, imgur, etc.) so complicated.

    You cannot send texts from an iPad.

  • How do I share my photographs between User Accounts

    I want to share my iphoto photographs between users on the iMAC. Is this as suimple as moving the iphoto folder to the public folder?
    iMAC   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Davinho
    No it's not that simple. iPhoto is a single user app, not designed for multiple users working simultaneously.
    What do you mean by sharing? If you want the others to have the ability to VIEW photos, there's a way. In the main account got to iPhoto -> Preferences -> Sharing and enable Share this Library. Leave iPhoto running and go to the other account using Fast User Switching. In that account, enable 'Look for Shared Libraries' in the iPhoto Preferences, an the main library will turn up in the left hand pane of iPhoto. Remember iPhoto must be running in the main account for this to work.
    If you want the others to be able to add, edit, keyword etc., then that's a different way. In this case, move the iPhoto Library Folder to the Users/Shared folder. This way both accounts can see it. Then you'll need to configure the permissions to allow everyone read/write access. (you can do this using BatchMod from http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/)
    Then hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto, Choose 'Locate' and navigate to the new location for the library. Repeat for both accounts. This will give read/write access tot he library for both accounts.
    However, as I said above, iPhoto is not designed for multiple users accessing the db simultaneously. Doing this increases the likelihood of db corruption greatly, so backing up is the order of the day.
    Personally, especially if you're still finding your way on the Mac, I recommend the first way. It's safer. When your confidence is up, you can easily move on to the second way.

  • How do I share iTunes music between different accounts on one Mac?

    Good morning !
    There are various users sharing our Mini. Can I set the Mini up so that we all can share the same music library ?

    It works for "initial sharing" but the described solution includes some drawbacks;
    - songs added under one account don't show "automatically" for other users
    - if added there is a copy of the song-file (* 2.mp3)
    - no "bulk" import withoud re-adding already present songs
    Any workarounds for these problems known? 'caus I'm getting tired to keep the 3 iTune Libs of my girls in synch

  • HT201317 how do i share photos in icloud

    How do I share photos to another icloud user via icloud?

    You can't view your photos at icloud.com.
    Photo Stream merely "pushes" your photos to your other devices (computer, Apple TV, ect). It pushes them for 30 days and has a 1,000 photo limit.

  • HT4007 how can i share photos between users on the same mac?

    Dear All,
    My wife and I use the same MacbookPro, but our own different login Accounts on the Mac, how can we share photos bewtwen these 2 accounts.
    Say, I've downloaded some pics from my camera and would like to transfer to her login account.
    Can I do it on the desktop level or can I use iPhoto to do this? I'd like to know how to do bothways, without having to duplicate the files(ie saving 2 copies of the same file on the computer)
    Isn' there a 'New' feature on iPhoto / Aperture saying that it uses the same 'Unified' library or something ?
    Can this feature help? but how to activate?
    Pls help.
    Thanks

    Macs have a folder called "Public" for this purpose.  See this from Finder's help:
    Share files with others using a drop box
    To give a copy of a file to another user, you can copy the file to the person’s Drop Box.
    HidePut a file in the Drop Box of another user on your Mac
    Open the user’s Public folder (in their home folder in the Users folder on your hard disk).
    Hold down the Option key and drag the file to the Drop Box in the user’s Public folder.
    Click the desktop to make sure you’re in the Finder, and then choose Go > Computer.
    Double-click the icon for your computer’s internal disk (usually named Macintosh HD) to open its folder.
    Open the Users folder, and then open the folder for the person to whom you’re giving a file.
    Open the user’s Public folder, and then drag the file to the Drop Box. To keep a copy of the file for your own use, hold down the Option key while you drag.
    Even though you can put items in another user’s Drop Box, you can’t open any Drop Box except your own.

  • How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same macbook

    How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same Macbook? i.e. I want all to be able to access family photos when logged into their respective accounts. Same goes for the iTunes library. Hope this is possible...
    Thanks!

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

  • Can't share photos using shared Photo Stream with iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    BACKSTORY: My friend took pictures of my family. I want to see the pictures he took. We live about 2.5 hours apart by car. Gas prices are too high for me to just drive down with an external hard drive to get the pictures and I might as well throw my money out the window if I were to ship him a hard drive and he ship it back. SO. I ask him if he would share photos with me and he quickly agreed. He added me to a Photo Stream  he has. ok cool. I recieve the invitation email just fine but this is the error I get when I click on the link:
    ERROR MESSAGE:
    Photo Stream
    Follow these steps to join a shared photo stream
    1.Make sure you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 6 or a Mac running OS X 10.8.2 withiPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later installed.
    2. Sign in to iCloud on your devices.
    3. Open the invitation email on an updated device and tap the Join this Photo Stream button. 
    WHAT I NEED:
    How can I view shared photo streams using iCloud Windows control panel 2.1.2.0? How can I work around this error message? I don't own any of these products that apple wants me to own in order to view these photos! I don't have the cash to go out and purchase them. What can I do to get "my" photos? Do I have to be signed into my friends apple id to see the shared photos?
    What I've tried:
    I already have the icloud control panel installed and updated to the latest version.
    I'm signed into iCloud on the control panel. (no apple id password issues)
    I have photo stream checked.
    I have my photo stream checked
    I have shared photo stream checked.
    I have tried copying and pasting the link into the address bars of Safari for Windows, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer,  and Firefox respectively and pressing enter to load. all present the same error message.
    I visited iCloud.com to see if there was anywhere to access the shared photo stream there... No option exisits
    Checked my photo stream folder in windows explorer. it's completely empty. I haven't put any of my own photos there so nothings missing per se... I just can't see my friends shared photos.
    MY SET UP:
    Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
    4gb of RAM
    iCloud control panel version 2.1.2.0
    I don't own any version of Outlook, (if that matters. I doubt that it matters at all in this case.)
    I don't have any iOS Devices or a mac capable of 10.8. My MacBook is stuck at 10.6.8. It's a late mid 2008 just before the aluminum unibody computers came out. If I had only waited another month... sigh. Murphy's Law is alive and well.
    any sugestions, especially correct answers, are welcome. please help me figure this out. Thanks in advance.

    Hello desert_dweller5,
    It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account.  The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
    Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
    Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article: 
    Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
    Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
    To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:
