  • Don't turn on Photo Stream on a Macbook

    I just got the 4S and turned on Photo Stream in iPhoto on my macbook. 
    It unexpectedly closed, and then gave me the window to say what happened, and then when I click reopen, it unexpectedly closes again. 
    I'm stuck in that loop.
    Anyone know how to back door into iPhoto to uncheck Photo Stream?

    Well, I tried the 3ivx download and I have the current version.  I reinstalled iLife 11 and reinstalled OSX Lion.  And it still is doing it.
    I think clicking photo stream corrupted my iPhoto library. 
    How disappointing is that?
    Now I have to figure out how to get my photo’s out of the library.

  • How get all photos from photo streams without iPhoto

    Hi to make A long story short, I lost a Hard Drive with iPhoto on it... Including all my baby's pics ... However I can still see them in the photo streams on my idevices.. First off without that Mac how can just grab all the photos off photo stream without iPhoto?
    Secondly, if I can install iPhoto on another machine or drive will that help or hurt me? Will all the photos show up under my Apple ID and can I just copy them or am I running any risk of deleting the streams?
    Is my only option to copy photos from photo stream a few at a time? And does that not repush them back up to the stream and erase older photos?
    Thank you for any help!!
    Yes I know I am a complete idiot for not backing up or using online backup service... 

    If you create a new library on another Mac, set its Photo Stream preferences to
    and log into your iCloud account on that Mac and enable Photo Stream,  the Photo Stream photos will automatically be imported into the new library. It can take a while depending on how many photos are in the stream.
    When you're done log out of your iCloud account and copy the library to a flash drive or DVD (if small enought) till you get your new drive.

  • How do I stop my iphone from turning on photo stream AFTER I turned it off?

    I have this problem that happens constantly and I cannot figure out a premenant solution for it. I have the Iphone 4. Since the IOS 7 upgrade, the photo stream option will not stay turned off. It seems to turn it on by itself. It will be on after a reboot or for no reason. I AM TIRED OF having going to settings to turn it off. I am thinking prehaps taking a picture triggers it to turn the photo stream on?

    I'm having the same problem and I need help because i do not want pictures to go to all my devices! Have yu learned how to stop this?

  • How to delete pictures in photo stream in iPhoto

    I have a whole bunch of pictures that I do not want to keep in photo stream in iPhoto on my macbook. 
    When I select the files I want to delete, it only gives me a quick "white" blank and does not respond.  Dragging the photos to the trash can does not work, either. 
    iPhoto has been my worst nightmare ever since I got my macbook.  It is just way too difficult to organize or keep track of my photos.  I need to visit this forum every time I need to do the simplest commands like deleting a file or transfering a file. 
    Please help.

    Where are you selecting the photos you want to remove from the Photo Stream?
    This should work:  See: How to delete photos from Photo Stream
    On a Mac using iPhoto 9.2.2 or later, or Aperture 3.2.3 or later:
    Select a photo or group of photos from the Photo Stream (or My Photo Stream) view in iPhoto or Aperture.
    Press the Delete key.
    Click Delete.

  • Every time i restart iPhoto , i have to turn on photo stream again, somebody know why?

    every time i restart iPhoto , i have to turn on photo stream again, somebody know why?

    I have exactly the same problem with  iPhoto. On my iPad I just enabled Photo Stream once and it automatically is enabled each time I turn it on again. But on my MacBook Pro and my older tower Mac (both running Lion) I have to enable Photo Stream every time I reboot the computer. Frustrating.

    How do I turn off photo stream on one computer without deleting the photos out of the rest of the devices?

    Go to control panel, search for 'iCloud", double-click iCloud to open the iCloud control panel for Windows, then uncheck photo stream.  If you want to keep any photo stream photos on your PC, be sure to copy them to a separate folder (outside of the photo stream folder) before unchecking photo stream.

  • HT4906 How can I subscribe to a shared Photo Stream in iPhoto

    I'm trying to use iPhoto to subscribe to a shared Photo Stream from my sister-in-law.  Whenever I click on the invitation, it says I need to sign in to iCloud -- which I have multiple times now -- and be running iPhoto 9.4 (which is actually 9.4.2).  So, I've satisfied all the necessary steps, but it's not bringing up iPhoto on my computer.  I have Photo Stream on iPhoto configured to allow subscribing to shared Photo Streams.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Figured it out with a helpful hint from someone elses post.
    I have two iCloud accounts.  My System Preferences had iCloud configured with the wrong Apple ID. 
    The email that gets sent when someone shares a Photo Stream might mention something about the System Preferences -> iCloud needing to be configured if you want to see the shared stream in iPhoto on a Mac.
