HT201077 iCloud Control Panel

Have icloud set up on my iPhone4 (photos is turned on).  I installed iCloud control Panel on PC (Windows 8).  iCloud photos/Photo stream was working until I installed ios 7 on my iPad mini. iCloud photos disappeared. 
I just reinstalled iCloud control panel, but cannot select photos box to set it up again. Obviously, nothing shows up in my iCloud photos, but all photos (up until I updated) show up in a photo stream folder in my pictures library.
Why can't I select photos on the control panel??  Does my iPhone have to be upgraded to the ios 7 as well?  I have not upgraded to ios7 on my iPhone 4 because our company's IT department states that ios7 on the iPhone4 does not work well with our system.

Thanks randers4. I understand the cloud only keeps photos for 30 days.  However some of the 86 I got back are over 90 days old.  I should mention that I recently got a replacement phone and used iTunes to back up the old phone and then used same to put my contacts, email etc on the new phone.  Could this have been the source of the problem?
It should not have been possible to receive photo stream photos that old on a newly connected device unless they were added to photo stream much later.  iCloud keeps photos added in the last 30 days, regardless of when they were taken.  Perhaps the photos were somehow added to photo stream on your replacement phone.
Regardless of how this happened, the only way to get the missing photos on your PC is to either import them with your usb cable as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, or create a shared photo stream containing them which will sycn to your PC alongside your photo stream photos.

  • HT201077 iCloud Control Panel does not allow Photo Stream to be clicked. I cant click on Options either.

    Photo Stream shows shared on iPad but when I access it on PC, Photo Stream is not clickable and can only access old photos that I shared from a month ago.

    iCloud is neither compatible with nor available for Windows XP.

  • HT201077 Why is my photo stream greyed out in the iCloud Control Panel.

    Why is my photo stream greyed out in the iCloud Control Panel?

    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.

    I had a previous problem with this with my old iphone 4 and did not realize there was an issue until it was stolen. I would like to get this straightened out just in case anything ever happens with this phone.
    Thank you in advance for any help.

  • I am trying to download icloud control panel via icloudsetup.exe to windows Toshiba laptop and get a message" \icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. Can anyone help? I am new to Apple stuff.

    Need help for icloud photo stream, have activated ps on iphone 4 and set up icloud back up for email, contacts, iwork, and find my ihone. Need to find photos that we thought were being saved/shared as well but evidently not. Found on another search that I may need the icloud control panel so tried to download it but when try to install i get, C:\Users\Downloads\icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I am using a Toshiba laptop with windows 7, which the system requirements are met. I am new to Apple stuff, so any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

    It suggests the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Tasks/Reminders added from Outlook (iCloud Control Panel synced) can't be checked off as completed on iOS

    I have Outlook on my PC, and can interact with the iOS reminders/tasks through syncing with the iCloud Control Panel. However, if I add a task/reminder this way I have been unable to mark the reminder as complete on my iOS devices (iPhone and iPad). The reminders show up, but clicking on the circle to the left of the task just updates the UI (fills in a circle). If you exit the reminders app or Today screen and go back, the task still remains uncompleted in the list.
    Has anyone else seen this? Right now, from iOS, I can only get rid of the reminders by deleting (instead of completing) them ... which is not ideal.
    Current Configuration:
    iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1
    iPad Air with iOS 7.1
    Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 with iCloud Control Panel 3.1

    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:

  • How can I Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder

    I apparently moved or deleted my iCloud folder and keep getting this message Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder.  How do I do this?

    I have/had the same problem, just started this morning. I tried a system restore to a known good date. I still had the problem so I rolled restored the system to the latest.
    Thinking that it might have something to do with priviliges, I reviewed my user account and noticed it was set to "Administrator". On a whim, I switched my user account from administrator to "standard user" and I'll be... the issue dissapeared. I have no idea why. But I thought I'd pass it along.

  • 2 iPhones, 2 iCloud Accounts but 1 Windows 7 PC.  How do I use iCloud Control Panel so that changes made change both accounts?

    Help!
    We have two iPhones, each with an iCloud account as my wife and I have different contacts (some are the same though), text and e-mail requirements.  However, my Win 7 PC will only allow one instance of iCloud Contol Panel to run at any one time, and so when a change is made to Outlook 2010, only one iCloud account is updated.  I have got around this with the Calendars by sharing the information, so when I change my calendar it is reflected on her iPhone and iPad.  But when I make a change to contacts, they are updated in Outlook, but not on her iPhone or iPad until I exit the iCloud Control Panel with my details and enter hers.  It is way too easy then to end up with duplicates and alsort of chaos.
    So what is the work around?  Does anyone else have this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Lars,
    In the examples folder there are some examples for simple operator interfaces. In the programmer help file they is a section on creating a teststand engine and the steps involved. Uses these notes and say the LV simple operator interface you can match up the steps and how to achieve them. In the Resource Library under TestStand there are plenty of useful notes, code, presentations to help you on your
    What you are trying to achieve is to start the teststand enine running from Labview. Open a sequence file. Once you have that sequence file loaded you can then start to manipulate the properties on that sequence, such as your local boolean.
    Hope this gives some pointers
