    If you're trying to add photos to photo stream on your PC, you drag them to your photo stream uploads folder (normally My Pictures\Photo Stream\Uploads).

    You might try uninstalling the iCloud control panel (listed as "iCloud" on the uninstall programs list), then reinstalling it from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455.

  • 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.

  • Photostream check box is greyed out on my icloud control panel on pc

    When I go to my Icloud control panel on my pc, Photostream checkbox is greyed out  so that I can't access it.  Does anyone else have this problem, and if so, have you figured out a problem?  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling icloud with the previous version, and even the latest release doesn't give me access to it.

    Same issue.   Still works on my work machine (win7) where I haven't updated icloud control panel to the latest version, but doesn't work on my laptop (win8) where I have updated to 3.0.

  • HT201317 Photostream to my Windows computer has stopped working. In icloud control panel, photostream is unchecked, I check it, hit options, nothing happens. I click apply and close. Next time I  open control panel, photostream is unchecked again! What ca

    Photostream to my Windows 7 computer has stopped working. When I open icloud control panel, photostream has become unchecked even though it has been previously checked. I check it again but when I click options, nothing happens. I click apply and close, but next time I open the control panel, Photostream has become unchecked again. What can I do?

    Lisaglenoak:
    When I first downloaded iCloud to my PC a little while back, Photo Stream initially worked. I was able to check/uncheck both boxes available to me, as well as click the Options tab to the right of Photo Stream. I could make changes, click "Apply", and everything was fine and dandy.
    Within a day, I opened the iCloud Control Panel, and despite how many times I would uncheck Bookmarks, it didn't matter. I would click "Apply", and it would automatically ask me to sign in again. When I did this, Bookmarks would be checked again. Additionally, Photo Stream was grayed out; I was unable to check the box (which was unchecked), and I was unable to go to Options.
    Somehow, I managed to get my iCloud Control Panel "unstuck", and currently, it is working fine. There are 2 steps that I did to accomplish this. The 1st step listed below may be the crucial element for those whose reinstallation of the program has not succeeded, in and of itself. It is a change that I haven't come across as a possible part of a solution to this problem; I just happened to stumble upon this whilst searching my PC for possible fixes to the problem.
    Step 1: Find your iCloud File Folder. (On my PC, I clicked the Start button in the lower left corner, then clicked All Programs, and finally scrolled down to where all the folders for various "things" are.) Click the Folder and a sub-list will appear, with items such as Calendar, Mail, etc. Right-Click the iCloud Program icon, and at the bottom of the list that appears, click on Properties. At the top, there are 5 tabs. Click the Compatibility tab, and you should see, at the top, the following words: "If you have problems with this program and it worked correctly on an earlier version of Windows, select the compatibility mode that matches that earlier version." Following these words is a dropbox underneath "Compatibility Mode", and for some reason - I have no idea why this is - the box was initially checked to run the program in compatibility mode for "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)". (And from what I understand, Windows XP is not a compatible Windows Edition for iCloud, so I have no idea why this box was checked.) If the box underneath "Compatibility Mode" is checked, than it is running iCloud in compatibility mode for any number of earlier Windows' Editions. Uncheck this box, click the "Apply" button, and then click "OK".
    Step 2: Find your PC's Control Panel. (On my PC, I clicked the Start button in the lower left corner, and then clicked Control Panel in the list to the right.) In the Control Panel, click Programs. Under Programs and Features, Click "Uninstall a program" (and bear with me here, because you are actually not going to uninstall iCloud). Now, scroll down the list and find "iCloud". Double-click the "iCloud" icon, and a panel with 2 options should appear: "Repair" and "Remove". Check the "Repair" box, which will reinstall the same iCloud Control Panel, replacing missing or damaged files. ("Remove" will just .. well ... remove iCloud from the computer - or, if you prefer, uninstall the program.) Click Next, and the repairing process will begin and end. And that is it - you're done. Task Completed.
    Well, in the end, this worked for me. Photo Stream was no longer grayed out. I could permanently uncheck Bookmarks (finally). The Options tab for Photo Stream would open. Anytime that I clicked the "Apply" button after checking/unchecking boxes, it wouldn't ask me to sign in again (only to come back to a Control Panel that looked just like it did before I made any changes to it.). And, I created a Shared Photo Stream on my phone using photos from my Camera Roll (to test the program), and the Shared Photo Stream appeared on my PC's Photo Stream in no time. Hopefully, this will work for you too (regardless of the Windows Edition you are currently using).     ~ Brian

  • HT201317 My icloud control panel does not allow me to turn on photos. Contacts, Bookmarks etc.. are ok

    My icloud control panel does not enable the Photos check box. Cannot view photos on PC that are taken with iphone and ipad.

    Hi Randers - thank you for the advice.  I signed out of the account on all devices, however when I try to go into iCloud on the Mac to re-input my account details, I'm presented with the following error message:
    'Could not load iCloud preference pane'.  Is there something additional I'm meant to do to be able to load an iCloud account on the Mac?

  • Updated iCloud control panel - can't sync photos

    I downloaded and installed the new iCloud control panel 3.0 on my Windows 7 PC.  When it first opened, it wouldn't allow me to sign in with my Apple ID and password.  After exiting and restarting the control panel, it allowed me to sign in, but has shaded out the option to check the "Photos" box to allow for my photostream to sync to my PC. How do I fix this or how do I get rid of the new version and go back to the old one?

    I also tried the repair installation.  Ultimately, when I completely uninstalled all traces of iCloud and re-installed just the new version (and restarted my computer a couple times), everything now appears to be working as it should.  Good luck with yours!

  • TS4403 My Photo stream folder is empty on my PC (using iCloud Control Panel)

    I am using iCloud Control Panel on a Windows 7 PC and my IPod touch (4th gen. running iOS 6.0.1) has photo stream enabled and is connected to wifi. I have the control panel set to auto-sync my photo streams, and when I open the folder on my PC I can view all shared photo streams--those shared originated by myself and by others. However, the folder for my photo stream (those not shared) is completely empty. Yet the pictures display in my photo stream on my ipod just fine.
    I'm trying to sell the ipod (and currently have not other iOS devices). I would like to secure all of my photos before wiping the device.

    I had the same problem with iCloud 2.0.   There is another thread which posted a link to a previous version iCloud (v.1.1).  I downloaded it, uninstalled v2.0 and I have my Photos syncing to my PC again.  I am sure the iCloud version I installed will not support some of the new features in IOS 6 for Photostream, but I am not using them at the moment.  So I will can wait until Apple issues version 2.1 of iCloud to fix these problems.
    As a side from note, I was able to "check" the check box after several attemps.  However, when going into the Photostream library in explorer, Explorer would subsequently crash on me.  Hope it gets fixed soon.
