Icloud photos: changing order of photos inside stream, can it be done

Is it possible to change the order of the photos posted inside a particular icloud stream?
Have tried selecting and dragging photos to desired place in stream sequence without success.
Help appreciated.

Is it possible to change the order of the photos posted inside a particular icloud stream?
As the name suggests - a Shared Photo Stream is a stream of photos to be shared (up to 5000 photos). The streams are ordered by the time you add the photo. It is not a shared album, that can be dynamically updated and rearranged. As you add new photos to the stream, you may need to delete older photos, to make room for the newer photos.

HT201317 Change Owner photo stream

Hi all,
How do you change owners for a shared photo stream? Can there be more than one owner for a shared photo stream?!
Thanks,
Ryan

Or do I just need to delete the Photo stream and start over with a new owner?

TS3989 How to Order Photos in Photo Stream?

Dear all,
I would like to share my photos with my Apple TV and when I place images into my Album I reorder those photos, however, when I upload to Photo Stream the photos pull from the original file name and order accourding to those names. Can we change the lable on the photo (i.e. photo001 photo002 photo003...) to display in the order we wish?
Thanks in advance for the help

There's no way to order the photos in the stream.

HT201317 how do I take old photos in my album on my ipad and have them go in my photo stream to see on my iphone. It's only streaming the new ones I take..

I want to take my older photos in my Ipad and have them streaming to my iphone and computer.. As of now it's only streaming the new ones I take.. Is there an easy way to put the other ones on my photo Icloud stream so I can view them from all of my devices?

That's by design; photo stream only uploads photos taken after turning on photo stream, not earlier photos. Adding earlier photos to photo stream can be done in a couple of different ways:
Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot. This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll. This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once. Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll. These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream. (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)

Sort order in iCloud shared photo stream

I have an album of photos in iPhoto v9.5.1 which I want to share using the iCloud shared photo stream. I've carefully sorted the photos in the album. But when I create and send the invite for the shared photo stream, it automatically re-orders the photos by date and greys out in the menu all other sorting orders. In other words it entirely ignores the work I put into creating the sort order.
Is there a fix?

please apple tell me what I have to pay for that a better solution? I will do it! Photostream makes sense only with possibilties to sort the photos inside a stream! and to sort the streams !! you did such a great job with icloud and photo stream - but it is not finished!!!!
Thanks a lot in advance!
You are trying to use Shared Photo Streams as shared Photo albums or slideshows, but they are intended as communication channels, not as online albums. If you treat them as streams, as they are intended to be used, it makes perfectly sense, that the images appear in the order they have been added. Drop a photo into the stream, your friend will send a different photo back, etc. Any other sort order would make the streaming cumbersome, when the stream gets long. You will want to see the most recently added photo at the head of the stream, to see immediately what is new. iPhoto on iOS device has web journals and slideshows to share online with friends, but in iPhoto on a Mac these are still missing.
I'd like to encourage you to send feedback about the usuability to the developers. After all, right now the iCloud drive and the new Photos.app for storing photos in the cloud is under developement. Since nothing at all has been announced yet how this feature will integrate with iPhoto and Aperture on a Mac, feedback will be very useful.

HT201317 What if you deleted your photos in photo stream? Is it gone forever?

I didn't back up anything & my photos in photo stream got deleted as well! Does that mean i cant get anything back?

Hi Maliakolo,
In order to get into your Photo Stream, the photos had to have been taken with an iDevice. Whichever device took the original photos will have a Camera Roll folder in the Photos app. Unless you deleted the pictures from your Camera Roll, they will still be there.

I want to order files (e.g., photos) in a particular order (not necessarily an order that is an option in MacOS. Ie, my own custom order, and I want them STAY in that order until I change the order. Is this possible?

I want to order files (e.g., photos) in a particular order (not necessarily an order that is an option in MacOS. Ie, my own custom order, and I want them STAY in that order until I change the order. Is this possible?

Custom sort order is not a typical option in the list view of any desktop computing systems I know of. The way you're seeing it work is also how it works in Windows and other systems.
There is no "None" sort order. What you're seeing is a "None" option under "Arrange By." Arranging is not the same as sorting; arranging is how the files are grouped in the window. For example, you can arrange (group) files by Kind while sorting by Name. You'll notice that if you are in List view and you choose Arrange By "None," in the window there is still a sort triangle next to the column name that it's sorting by.
If Arrange is set to None, the files appear in one big group (the traditional view) that is controlled by the Sort order (where there is no None option).
I didn't even know the difference between Sort and Arrange until I saw your question and did a little research! This Macworld article helped:
How to arrange and sort files in Lion Finder (also applies to later OSs like Mavericks)
As for your main question, how to do a custom sort order in the Finder, you can only rearrange files manually in Icon view. As with other operating systems, if you want to create a custom sort order for photos there are other ways:
Use a photo organizer application like iPhoto or Lightroom. Some let you have custom sort orders in folders, but others only let you have a custom sort inside a different container like an "album" or "collection". Having those additional container types is part of why photos are often best managed in an organizer application and not on the desktop.
Rename the files. You can use a renaming utility program to rename the photos with numbers that will enforce your sort order when sorted by name on the desktop, like
01 Photo.jpg
01 Photo.jpg
01 Photo.jpg
or
Photo 01.jpg
Photo 02.jpg
Photo 03.jpg

Photos change order when burning to disc

I have created a separate album of photos that I want to burn to a CD. When I do so, some of the photos change order. I have tried to delete those photos and then re-add them to the album, but to no avail. I have also tried to change their date so that they are chronologically in the right order, but this doesn't help either. Any help would be truly appreciated. I want to give this CD to my father for Christmas. Thanks!!

Hi Tom,
You should be able to make a slidshow almost as easy as what you're trying to do right now... it'll take some pratice
Personally, I have both exported a slideshow from iPhoto to iDVD and also created a slideshow directly in iDVD, the latter is a better fit for what you're doing.
Open iDVD, create new project, name as you like and save, will auto open to work window, click on 'customize', pick a theme you like. Now click on 'Map' and in the customize pane click on 'Media'. In the media pane you have itunes, photos and movie, select photos... you're iPhoto library will appear along with all the albums you might have created and organized. Here's what makes it sweet, you can drag each album into the 'Map' Theme icon and it will automatically import and turn into a slideshow and take on the name of the album... to see your progess hit the Preview button... you'll have to do a little learning and tweaking, you can add music etc., but that's it, you made a slide show ready to burn to a dvd...
My suggestions would be to organize albums as you like, named appropriately and just have fun with it. You can save and go back and edit at a later date. Use the highlight and delete or cut options to remove etc etc etc...
You can burn project using the File > Burn DVD option or you can save the FINAL production use the File > Save As Disk Image option, and you can burn the DVD through disk utility which will give you more options on burn speed and buring at 1x speed may yield the best results...

Using Aobe Photoshop Elements 6: 1. How to download photos in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them? 2. Changing the date on each photo

Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 6:
1. How can I get the 2000 photos I downloaded in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them? (This will help me label them correctly)
2. How can I change the date on each photo? (I want to sort by date the picture was taken, not the date it was downloaded.
Thank you!

You indicated that the images "seemed" to be in the right order. It might be a good idea to rename the images on export using a custom name/sequence. If you have done that and the images are still not in order, it's possible that your operating system browsing window is using a different sort order. I sometimes change windows explorer to sort by file type, and then files are sometimes in what seems be a strange order.

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).

HT201317 do i need photos in photo stream and the camera roll?

I want to know what is the difference between camera roll and photo stream. Do I need both? Are they taking up memory space on my phone? Thank you for any help. I have an Iphone 5, 16 GB

The camera roll contains the original photos that were added to photo stream. They may be slightly higher resolution than the photo stream photos as photo stream photos are "device optimized". Once camera roll photos are in your photo stream, if you want to save space you can import them to your computer and delete them from your phone, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
It's important to import your camera roll photos to your computer for safekeeping and not rely on photo stream to back them up. The reason for this is because photo stream photos are only kept in iCloud for 30 days, even though a rolling collection of up to 1000 photos will remain on your phone until deleted. If, however, you ever turn off photo stream, restore your phone or replace your phone for any reason, when you reconnect to photo stream you will only get back photos from the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer there).
