How do you select what pictures are in your photo stream?

I don't understand how pictures are included in the photo stream. Have an iphone 4 that I want to set up so all the pictures/videos are available on my mac book??

If you Mac meets the system requirements outlined here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html, sign into your iCloud account and turn on photo stream.  You can't use photo stream for videos; you'll have to import them as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

    Click here and search the article for '2 out of 3' without the quotes; in the case of forgotten answers, this generally involves either a message being sent to your rescue email address or contacting the iTunes Store staff directly.

    how do you know what computers are authorzed to use an I tune account?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There is no way to view a list of authorised computers. You can only tell a computer is authorised from that computer itself, from the store menu in iTunes.

  • How do you determine what shows are in free video on demand?

    How do you determine what to include in the free on-demand shows?  The Mentalist was always there before but is no longer.  This is especially important for shows like the Mentalist and The Good Wife which come on Sunday nights after sports events.  Even if I set my DVR to record 60 minutes over it doesn't always catch the entire episode.  Would also like to see Person of Interest  there.   And last but not least, you should have a way for people to access netflix or other services from your service.  

    If you go to BROWSE then the FREE folder you will find that everything in there is free viewing. If you go elsewhere and try to watch a paid show, you will get a prompt asking you to purchase. It also shows the amount of the movie before purchase.

  • TS3989 all my pictures are in the photo stream on my phone but not in my photo stream on my computer

    i have to get a new iphone because my speakers are blown and i was double checking to make sure all my stuff was backed up on my icloud and i noticed that all my pictures show up in the photostream album on my phone but the last 20 pictures are nowhere to be found in the photostream folder on my computer.

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

  • How can you select which pictures to upload from camera? plus facebook ?

    Is there any way to select which pictures from your digital camera you would like to upload on to iphoto? Or is the only way to upload all of the pictures on your camera? I have 214 pictures on my camera and 210 of them are already in iphoto...i only want to upload the new 4!
    Another question..
    I am trying to upload my pictures on to Facebook, and they are significantly smaller than the pictures I uploaded via my PC. How can I get them to upload at normal size?
    THANKS!

    Re: the FaceBook problem
    This sounds like you're uploading the Thumbnails that iPhoto uses to display the pics in the iPhoto Window not the pics themselves. Have you been uploading from the Data folder in the iPhoto Library Folder?
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size.
    3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How do you select some pictures  as opposed to an entire in Photo Album

    I am Trying out Light room and so far notfinding it not very friendly. when I open a Folder of pictures. even though Ichoose certain one to create a Photo Album to put on a Website it wants to put everything in not just what I select.

    You select an image by clicking on it - either in the Grid View or in the filmstrip at the bottom.
    You can select more than one image by clicking on the first image and then Ctrl / Cmd + click on the additional images (i.e. hold down Ctrl / Cmd and click on the additional while Ctrl / Cmd is still pressed).
    Alternatively you can click on the first image and then Shift + click on the last one to select the first, the last and everything in between.
    If multiple images are selected, only one of them is active. It has a lighter shade of grey. 
    See the image in tyhis thread that explains it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5180996#5180996

  • The Science Behind Mixing: HOW do you decide what speakers are right?

    Hey guys,
    Hoping you could shed light on how a sound engineer chooses the levels when mixing a song?
    I know this is a total loaded question...but at least this can give you some direction on what I'm looking for in the answer:
    My buddy and I are playing the music from M-Audio BX5a speakers.
    With somethings, they sound great on there...
    but then we go listen to them in the car, and the mix is wayyy off....
    Often times the off part is the bass. It's hard to determine with the BX5a's if the Bass is at a good level, or if it's going to totally overwhelm all the instrumentals. (we're doing orchestral hip-hop by the way)
    Any advice? Do we just need new speakers?
    Thanks!
    --Sean

    Lots of good, sound advice here...
    I think the biggest thing you can do, which may yield the quickest satisfactory results, will be, as has already been mentioned, to A/B your mixes with a CD that is similar in style/content.
    Then, as you listen to your mixes in multiple environments, make sure you A/B in those listening environment as well. You'll learn nothing if you don't constantly make comparisons on ALL the systems you are listening on.
    Beyond that, treating your mix room is a crucial thing to do. The company Auralex offers a free service, where you download a sweepable sine wave that sweeps 20Hz to 20kHz. Using the most neutral microphone in your arsenal, you record that sweep by placing your mic between your speakers. You send this file back to them, and they can tell you where the worst deficiencies are in your room.
    Granted, this is a general observation, and obviously they will make suggestions to room treatments, in hopes you will buy their products. But at the very least, it will tell you what to be aware of when mixing.
    http://www.auralex.com/
    I have 3 sets of monitors from which to constantly be checking my mixes. Dynaudio BM6's, Yamaha NS-10's, and Avatone's. I am very familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of each... I know what frequencies should (or shouldn't) be popping out on each, etc...
    I have been mixing for over 20 years. I'll let you know when I master it

  • How do you find what files are open?

    I have a disk utility that needs to unmount my secondary drive but it is unable to stating there are open files. I know there is a UNIX command that shows what files are open but I can't find the command. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!!
    The command you are after is lsof. Read the manual to find out about the options (there are an awful lot, but most of them you won't need).

  • How do you change the location of where your photos are stored?

    How do you go about changing the location of where your iPhoto files are housed?  I'm running out of space on one drive and want to move them all over to a drive that can house all of the current (and future) photos?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
