How to get photos into photo stream?

How do you get photos from your iPhone camera roll into photo stream?

OK, after a bit of Googling I managed to get my photos from the iPhone to my PC without iTunes or a desktop app. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-pictures/i-cannot -download-pictures-from-my-iphone-to-my-pc/94f5c656-c1d9-48e6-9b6f-796ae048b75e
When I plug my iPhone into the PC as well as iTunes coming up the Windows AutoPlay popup appears. If I choose Open device to view files in Windows Explorer, I can then see the folder containing the photos and copy them to my PC. This worked fine for me, although from Google others have had problems.
I suppose I could now put these back into the Photo Stream on my iPhone via iCloud by putting them into the Photo Stream/Uploads folder on the PC.

  • From a PC, how do I store a photo into Photo Stream so that I can access it on iPad?

    From a PC, how do I store a photo into Photo Stream so that I can access it on iPad? Like, a Word document can be dropped into iCloud from my PC and it will appear when I open iCloud from my iPad.

    From your Windows desktop
    From your Windows desktop, drag any photo to the Photo Stream Uploads folder you chose in the iCloud Control Panel.
    Note:   Photos in Photo Stream appear in the order they were originally taken, not in the order they were added to Photo Stream. If you manually add photos, they appear throughout Photo Stream in the appropriate date order.
    For a list of file types that can be added to Photo Stream, go to the Apple Support article Photo Stream FAQ and see “What photo formats does Photo Stream support.”

  • Lost my iPod and don't know how to get back my photos

    I lost my iPod touch 5th generation and don't know how to get back my photos.  It is running iOS 8.1.
    Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Get them back from where?
    They will only be where you put them.
    If you used photo stream, then look for them there.
    If you imported them to your computer, then they will be there.
    If you did not put them anywhere but your iPhone, then they are gone.
    Sorry

  • Could you tell me simply how to get to the photo shop so I can work on the pictures?

    Please tell me simply how to get to the photo shop. I'm not interested in learning all about photo shop, I just want to edit my pictures.

    Do you own a registered copy of Photoshop, or a trial version that is still valid, or are you looking to obtain Photoshop?  If you want to acquire Photoshop, there are a variety of flavors to choose from.  Go to the page linked below to find them and links to acquire the software.

    No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
    But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
    Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
    By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
    That would depend on what you are trying to do.

  • Import photos into photo booth

    Hello,
    I just upgraded to Leopard by doing an erase and install (wanted a fresh start). I manually backed up all the photos in my Photo Booth folder and the recents.plist file also.
    Now I was to add those photos back into Photo Booth in Leopard. I know you used to be able to edit the Recents.plist file, but the new Photo Booth does not seem to make this file. Anyone have an idea of how I can import my backed up photos into Photo Booth?

    Ah, just figured it out. The Recents.plist file is now located in /Users/~/Library/Application Support/Photo Booth/
    For some reason when I did a spotlight search for Recents.plist, that folder didn't come up so I assumed Photo Booth was no longer using Recents.plist to hold the list of photos.
    Thanks!

  • How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

    How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?
    I have filmed an air show with a very good camera JVC pro
    And when I pick up the clips in Adobe Premiere Elements 12, it works too, but only without sound.
    I think I tried everything for 4 days now.
    Sound in my computer works perfectly
    I go to where the video files are located and try to run them in VLC or in Nero Kwik so it works fine with both audio and video.
    I have checked the sound card.
    Yes, I have tried everything so now I'm so tired of this lousy so I'm ready to throw this program at the dump.
    It's not normal if you will keep on producing audio for over 4 days at Adobe
    The old Elements 9 worked fine. Offer some of would consider developing it again. I do not know how I should do.
    My name is Thore Hult
    live in Karlshamn in Sweden

    Thore Hult
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 working on? Have you updated it from 12 to 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    For your immediate problem.
    What is the model/settings for the JVC camera that recorded you video. I want to get at the properties of your source video including the file extension.
    Since you are getting video, but no audio, please download and install the free codec utility named GSpot to see what is shows
    for your Audio Name and Status.
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    The other properties of the file there would also be of interest.
    When you import your source file into the project, do you see any "conforming" activity going in a progress bar at the bottom right corner of the workspace?
    If so, do you wait for it to complete before you move forward in the project?
    Can you get sound in any of your Premiere Elements projects with this current JVC file or other?
    Can we assume that your troubleshooting has included checking
    a. Volume control within the project
    b. Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO
    Let us start here and then we can decide what next if necessary.
    Thanks.

  • Anyone know how to get subtitles into Quicktime movies?

    With Quicktime now supporting subtitles. Does anyone know how import subtitles into Quicktime movies?
    After following the instructions from Apple's support pages for timed text, I tried pasting in timed text. This displays text below the video in an ugly black bar, but isn't recognised as subtitles by Quicktime. Ideally, I'd like to convert srt files into a compliant format, but without knowing the correct format, it's a little difficult.

    There haven't been any really clear instructions on how to get subtitles into QuickTime movies yet. Apple has posted a QuickTime component that will convert an SCC file into QuickTime and you'll find that here.
    http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/ClosedCaptionImporter/index.html
    Also, a discussions user has posted instructions on how to CC a QuickTime movie in this thread.

  • How to get text into a timeline

    I do not understand how to get text into a timeline in Premiere Pro.  I can work in titles more or less, change fonts and sizes, but I do not get how to insert the text into the timeline.  Am I even starting at the right place, going into "titles" first?

    Once you have made your title, drag it from the project panel to V2 on your timeline above your other footage.

  • I cannot get any photos into Photo Stream

    I have a MacBook Pro late 2011 updated to Mountain lion, an iPad 2 and the latest Apple TV.  I have followed the instructions on all devices to the letter and followed the help instructions in the Apple Support Section, but I cannot get a single photo to appear in Photo Stream. I managed to get an album name to appear in iPhoto Photo Steam shared with my apple ID, but there are no photos. I have dragged and dropped, selected single photos and chose the Share icon, then Photo Stream in iPhoto and chose both My photo stream and the one I managed to name, but it just keeps showing photo count as 0. 
    Photo Stream is activated correctly in the Mac iCloud settings and also in the Settings on my iPad, but not one single photo has made it to my Photo Stream fromf iPad or Mac!  I am signed into my ID on Apple TV but Photo Stream has 0 photos.
    I have been doing this over and over for a couple of hours.  Everything has been followed correctly, but it just wont add a single photo no matter if I do manul or autmatic.
    Any ideas from the community? 
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion last night, and everything seemed to go OK.  iPhoto is 9.4.1
    Many thanks

    Try this basic troubleshooting fix: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If that doesn't help  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then your current library is the culprit.
    Post back with the results and we can go from there.

  • How to get a photo into photo browser

    how do you get a photo into the photo browser box

    I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
    Here is the work around:
    Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library.

  • HT204655 How do I get my albums from i photo into photo

    Converted my i photo pics to photo but albums didn't convert over.  How do I get my I photo albums into photo? Also what happened to events?

    Problem solved thanks to visit to Apple store.  By the time I went into the Apple Store I thought I knew what happened, but couldn't re import. When I imported my photos to photos I had two files to choose from and evidently picked the wrong one.  Going into finder I could see both files, but they were'nt highlighted so I couldn't import the other file.  The guy at the Apple Store suggested to hit the option and photo on the dock at the same time to see if I could not bring up the other file.  If that didn't work he said to go to finder and hold control while clicking on picture.  The last method is what ended up working and then I was able to import the other file. Bingo, the side bar now shows events from I Photo and the Albums.
