HT201077 Accepting a photo stream invite

Has anyone received an invitation, clicked to accept and not have the shared photo stream available?

Sometimes it takes a while, especially if there were a lot of Photos.

Re-enable shared photo stream invitations

Hi,
I hope someone can help me.
I was testing shared photo streams and i inadvertantly clicked a link on the bottom of the email when someone sends you a shared photo stream invite which blocks any furthur invites from being received. The effectivly un-subscribes yourself from receiving any new shared photo stream invites!
Does anyone know how to re-enable the invitations?
Many thanks,
Adam

I have tried to contact support - I have a case open, but they don't know how to do it. It's been a week now and no one has gotten back to me!
Can anyone from iCloud support help me?

HT201077 Why is my photo stream invite email to my friends and confirm email from Apple to me in Japanese?

Hello,
Has anyone experienced the same trouble? When I send invites to my family and friends to my photo stream albums, some invites are sent in Japanese. And I get the comfirmation message, telling me that my friend has accepted my invite to view my photo stream, from Apple also in Japanese.
Please let me know how to fix this. FYI, my Apple account is registered in Korea, and my language setting is in English for both my iPad and iPhone and Mac. I've checked my language setting in iCloud as well. It's set to English.
Many thanks,
hans

I had the same problem. I think it must be caused by the fact that i bought a charger in Apple Store Tokyo, and then entered my email address on the warranty form. Ever since emails in Japanese started appearing. When I now enabled Shared Photo Streams, my friends got invitations from me in Japanese too.
I was looking everywhere for language settings, but they all seemed in order. On iCloud that is.
It turns out it was the language settings on my apple-ID, not my iCloud-ID that was wrong, after a purchase at Apple Store Tokyo. Who would have thought that these two IDs were related? Or maybe they should be, but then why are they not even more integrated? Duplicate language settings?
This solved the problem:
1. Log into appleid.apple.com
2. Set the language.
The real problem however, is that Apple changed my language after a visit to an Apple Store. Come on! I already had a Norwegian apple-ID, a Norwegian credit card, and a Norwegian address. What could possibly make you think that I suddenly spoke Japanese? Ever happened that a tourist visited an Apple Store? Companies needs to learn that customers can make their own decisions, and often do, or want to do it, if they are allowed to do so. Examples of features that was designed not considering this fact: The play button on a Mac always launching iTunes, even though I'm already playing music in Spotify (and never use iTunes for music). Or Spotifys obsession with reporting everything you listen to, turning off the Private Session after 6 hours, so you have to make that setting every time you start playing music.

HT201077 How do I change the language of the photo stream invitation mail?

I am living in Denmark, but using photo stream to share photos with many international contacts.
Language is set to English on my iPhone, but the invitation that system is sending is in Danish.
I am wondering where to change?

Try this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19100650#19100650
Basically go to https://appleid.apple.com and set your language preference there. I have no idea how mine was set to Portuguese!
Very annoying that this answer is hard to find.

HT201077 problems using photo stream on mac

Have set up photo stream and iColud correctly but when I receive email from friends to join photo stream the link sends me directly to the "get started" page. What to do?

What system version are you running? For shared Photo Streams you need to be running 10.8.2 or later. The following is from iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
What do I need to use Photo Stream?
To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later

HT201077 Why does photo stream on my i phone have more of my pictures than photo stream on my mac?

Why does photo stream on my i phone have more of my pictures than photo stream on my mac?

Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane. Then log back in and re-enable, respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream on your Mac.

HT201077 Viewing shared photo stream in web browser in slide show mode

The pictures in my photo stream used to fill the whole web page when in slide show view
now they sit in the middle of the page surrounded by a black boarder.
Can this behaviour be changed back to full page display?

If you are using iOS 7, open the Photos app on your iPhone, tap Shared at the bottom, tap Edit at the top, then tap the icon next to the album you want to delete. If you only want to delete selected photos in it, tap the album, tap Select at the top, tap the photos you want to delete, then tap the trash icon at the bottom.

HT201077 i have photo stream on my mac and iphone, not on iPad. ideas

I cannot get photo stream on my ipad. There were older photos on ipad, deleted those, the new do not show up.
Second, cannot see photo stream in my icloud account?
Thanks,
Ray

You're welcome. iCloud only keeps your photo stream photos in iCloud for 30 days (even though up to 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted). I assume it's because photo stream is completely free, and doesn't count against your iCloud storage plan, so Apple had to place limits on how much is stored and for how long. As a result, they don't attempt to make them available on icloud.com.
If you want to be able to access photo stream photos on the web you have to create a shared photo stream as a public website, as discussed here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99. Then you will be given a link to view them from any computer.

HT201077 My shared photo stream originally was working.

My shared photo stream originally was working. But then the person I was sharing with sent me a shared photo stream. I never got it and now the stream I sent to her no longer updates with photos I've added to it. Has anyone experienced this and figured out a fix?

I should have mentioned that they were all showing ok last night, but this morning when I checked only 9 out of 60 are showing. I even deleted just one or 2 from my iPhone at first, made sure they were still showing in the stream, before deleting the rest. So can't understand now where the missing ones have gone?

HT201077 I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

HT4906 Photo Stream Help?

I have Mac OSX 10.7.5 and IPhoto 9.4.3, but when I try to turn on "My Photo Stream", it is not showing in the source list.
How can I get it to show up. Have also tried to accept a Photo Stream invite, but cannot get this loaded.
Please help!

Log out of iCLoud and turn off Photo stream on all devices - reboot and turn them all on and see if it will start
I am setup on ICloud and have the proper software.
you do not have the proper software for shared PhotoStreams - that is why
Have also tried to accept a Photo Stream invite, but cannot get this loaded.
Shared PhotoStreams require Mt Lion
Have you logged into iCLoud in the system preferences as suggested?

HT201077 I have sent invites to multiple ppl to my photo stream but no one received their invites. They are set up to receive invites to photo streams but it's still not working. Why?

I set up a photo stream that includes pics and videos and sent out invites. No one received their invites even tho it shows on my device that I have invited everyone. Everyone is set up to receive photo stream invites (I checked as we were all at the same event). I am using an iPhone 4. Has anyone else run into this problem?

I have this same issue - iPhone 4S running IOS 7.0.4...
eg; today I took 10 pix - only ONE went to the stream - annoying!

Why aren't my accepted Photo Streams showing in my notification center or my iPhoto?

I recently accepted 2 Photo Streams. They showed up in my notification center, and by clicking them in the NC I was able to access them (They popped up in the "flagged" section of my iPhoto). Now, my NC shows nothing and the Shared Photo Streams have not been turned off by the sharer. Additionally, the photo streams are not under the "flagged" section of my iPhoto. Is there a setting I'm missing? Any ideas?

Another quick question: is there a limit to how many times you can open a shared photo stream? Because after opening them a few different times through my NC, they disappeared.

Photo Stream Sharing and Apple IDs?

In order to share a Photo Stream so that it automatically keeps friends and family updated, the person invited to the stream must have an Apple product as well as an Apple ID related e-mail address.
Most Apple IDs are the same as Apple e-mail addresses. However, do I need their actual Apple ID primary e-mail, or will Photo Sharing accept any Apple ID associated e-mail?
According to this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 I should be able to associate multiple e-mail addresses with my Apple ID after I have verified a primary e-mail address, and then theoretically use any of them to invite that person to a photo stream.
Anybody know if this is the case?
Unfortunately, you cannot add one of your own aliases or alternate e-mail addresses to a shared stream, so I have no way to test this ...

My Apple ID and iCloud account email are, for some reason, different -- somehow, iCloud still has a @me.com email address listed as my account email, whereas the rest of Apple services correctly shows the primary email for my Apple ID.
Perhaps this is why, but I can't receive any Photo Stream invitations sent to my Apple ID / primary email. I only see the invites when they are sent to the old @me.com address listed under iCloud, or to the @icloud.com address that was automatically assigned when me.com transitioned to icloud.com.
Can anyone suggest a way I can fix this situation? Hopefully I should be able to change the email address associated with my icloud.com account to match my Apple ID primary email, but I can't figure out a way to do this.

How to manage photo stream from 2 iCloud accounts in Aperture 3

For the time being, my wife and I used to share the same iCloud account,
This was very convenient to share the family's calendar, contacts, and photos!
But from iOS 7, the sharing of Apple ID for the family looks compromised, iMessage and FaceTime are using common IDs on all devices connected with the same account...
I'm now considering creating an account for each of us and could find a solution for calendar, contacts, BUT not for photos!
Any idea to get Aperture accepting the photo stream coming from 2 Apple IDs?

Any idea to get Aperture accepting the photo stream coming from 2 Apple IDs?
IOS 7 supports writing of persons with different AppleIDs to the same shared photo stream.
And I expect that iPhoto and Aperture will soon support this too.
From the IOS ipad user guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1595/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
Share streams of photos and videos with people you choose. Friends you’ve chosen who have an iCloud account—and iOS 6 or later or OS X Mountain Lion or later—can join your stream, view the photos you add, and leave comments. If they have iOS 7, they can add their own photos and videos to the stream. You can also publish your stream to a website for anyone to view.
