HT201317 duplicate photos with photo stream

Does anybody get duplicate photos with photo stream?  If so, how do you stop this happening?

Hey Seth221,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you want it so that when you take a photo on one device (your iPhone), it automatically appears on all of your other devices (your iPad). I'd first make sure Photo Stream is enabled on your iPad and iPhone by going to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and turn on My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams. I'd also read through the Photo Stream FAQ here and see if that answers any further questions:

Have a great day,

  • Can I use multiple Facebook accounts when sharing photos with Photos

    With iPhotos I could set up multiple Facebook accounts and choose which account to share to...that does not seem to be an option with Photos.

    Terence,
    I do not see the Accounts in preferences of iphoto? Where is this?

  • Managing photos with Photo Library

    I use an iPhone 5S, iPad 4, and Windows 7 laptop.  I implemented Photo Library on both IOS devices.  I am confused as to how to manage the photos on my PC.  I need access to them for reports, etc.from my PC
    Is there anyway to access photos on the PC without transferring them to an album or shared folder?  Which is best? 
    If I inadvertently create an shared folder or album, can I delete it from the IOS device without deleting it from the Library?  Can I delete photos from the PC user folder, ie:       C:\Users\{name}\Pictures\iCloud Photos\Shared
    My Photos is turn on in my iCloud control dialog box.  Yet, under my iCloud Photos icon, it says that iCloud Photos is not enabled.  What gives?
    In my iCloud control dialog box/photos/options, I have "My Photo Stream" checked, yet my "photo stream" folder is empty?  What gives?

    What version fo iPhoto and system are you running:
    If you're using Photo Stream in iPhoto on your iMac disengage Automatic Upload in the iPhoto/Photo Stream preference pane:
    Now you will have to manually add photos to Photo Stream in iPhoto if you want them to be on your iPhone's Photo Stream.
    You can remove photos in PS from iPhoto by selecting them and Control (right)-clicking and selecting Delete from Photo Stream:

  • HT201317 When i try and share a photo with photo stream, most of my contacts are greyed out?

    I tried sharing a picture using photo stream but most of my contacts are grey and unable to be selected?

    Contact will be grayed out if they don't have an email address, as this is required to invite recipients to your shared photo stream.

  • Edit Photos with Photos App iOS 5.0.1

    Hi,
    I modified some pictures with the integrated iOS 5.0.1 Photos App with my iPad 2 and saved the changes.
    If I show the picture on the iPad 2 I see the changes, but if I send it per Email or copy the file to my computer (with Sync-Cable) I have only the original version of the picture and not the modified version.
    How can I get the modified picture?
    Many thanks

    No idea?

  • Sync photos with Photo

    Hi people,  yesterday I updated my Mac and installed the program Photos,  when I opened the program iPhotos,  automatically the program migrate all my photos from iPhotos to Photos.  Until now everythig was OK.
    However,  when I tried to SYNC my iPhone 6 pls with my MAC using iTunes,  appears problems.  Not all the photos were sync.  I don't know why some was OK and other not.  Some photos were duplicated.  Mainly the newest ones.
    Many photos have lost the location.  And Photos doesn't allow me to add the place where I toke the photo.
    Could you please help me?  And give some directions in order to 1) Sync correctly some Albums,  and all their photographies. I think iTunes or Photos are not working properly.  2) How can I edit the location in my photos.  With iPhotos this is very very easy.
    iPhotos is a great tool,  but iTunes doesn't recognize it now to Sync with other devices.

    Yes Photos doesn't do editing of place info.
    What are the problems you are having when syncing via iTunes? You are missing albums or the contents, whole or in part?

  • How to print regular photos with photo creation

    I installed Photo Creation, and I want to print photos, I don't want design, how can i print normal prints.
    Thank you

    Hi Maricris.
    To print plain photos in HP Photo Creations, select the Prints project rather than the Collage Prints project. (Collage prints let you place up to 60 items on a page, including photos, graphics, and text.)
    Here's a step-by-step guide to making single plain prints in sizes from 4x6 up:
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Home-Web-Printing/How-do-I-print-4X6-with-tab-photos-1-per-page-with-NO...
    HP Photo Creations doesn't have a preset for wallet-size prints, so in that case, you can use the Collage Prints project to group multiple copies of the same photo on a page. Here's how:
    Start with the Plain White theme. It's in the Contemporary category.
    Add your photo.
    Click the Photos tools and then the Used Photos tab. You'll see a small version of your photo there.
    Click the photo in the Used Photos area several more times to add multiple copies to the layout. In the example below, we added ten copies total.
    Click the Design tools. Then click the Photo Layouts tab.
    Select the Basic category and then click the fourth preset. It looks like a big square. Your photos should line up as shown below.
    Thanks for trying HP Photo Creations,

  • USING I PHOTO With photos on external drives only

    HOW CAN I ACCESS I PHOTO LIBRARIES OR CREATE NEW ONES USING ONLY EXTERNAL DRIVES so I don't have to Import to computer and fill up my HD

    Sure. Drag the iphoto library (users-->[home]-->pictures) to the external drive and wait for it to copy. Then, delete the original iphoto library by dragging it to the trash and emptying the trash. The next time you launch iphoto, it will prompt you for a library. Select "Other Library" and choose the library on the external drive. It will now remember to reference the library on the external drive.

  • HT201317 why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • HT201317 My photos in photo stream automatically are shared with other people?

    Are my photos in photo stream when the option of shared photo streams is on, are they shared with other people automatically?

    Your photos are not shared automatically. You must select photos and share them with others manually.

  • HT201317 Can I use photo stream with Camera+

    Hello Glenn,
    This can be done with a Shared Photo Stream, as detailed in the following article.

  • How do I make iPhoto events with photo stream?

    I am confused about how I am now supposed to download photos into iphoto to make Events.  Yesterday I plugged in my phone to import recent photos but when it did this I ended up with two of everything because photostream had already "imported" (?) them.  So, if that means I don't need to plug the iphone in pto import the photos, then how do I:
    1.  delete the photos from my phone that I would normally be deleting everytime i import via a wire?
    2.  make an event from the photos in the photo stream?
    I also noticed that some of the photos from the same series of photos are still left on my phone--those are the only photos that are not duplicated.  I don't understand why they were left on my phone, nor is it clear to me whether the ones on my computer are from the "normal import" or from the "photo stream import". 
    Would love some clarity about this.

    As far as the duplicates.... I don't know why it's doing that. If something comes to mind I'll let you know.
    As far as using a cable...
    You can still sync with iTunes (apps, music, photos etc) via Wi-Fi and only use the cable to charge the phone. That has nothing to do with Photostream. So you should have iTunes set up to sync the photos with a folder on your MBP.
    As far as being away from your MBP for over 30 days....
    Well, in that case whatever photos are older than 30 days will disappear from photostream, but they will still be in your phone's camera roll. As long as you don't lose or break your phone, you can transfer them to your MBP when you're home again (via iTunes or iPhoto or Image Capture). If you are concerned something will happen to your phone during those 30+ days away from your MBP, then you can use an option like Dropbox to save them online.

  • Duplication Issues with Photo Sync via iTunes/iPhoto and Photo Stream/iCloud (Detailed Scenario Given)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'd like to share an issue I am having with photo syncing between my iDevices.
    Here is how I USED to sync my Photos between my iDevices (no issues with photo duplication)
    Note: In this scenario, I use iTunes and iPhoto on my Mac. iCloud and Photo stream have NOT been activated in this case.
    1. Take photos via iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. After a month or so, I will connect my iPhone to my Mac.
    3. Import my Photos in iPhoto and arrange  Events and Photos in monthly sections and add some of them in a separate Albums (ex. Written Notes Photos) for easy access.
    4. Once the import is done, iPhoto prompts an option to delete photos in my Camera Roll which I do as I like to start a fresh month with empty Camera Roll in my iPhone.
    5. In order to access the Photos I have imported in iPhoto in my iPhone, I go to iTunes and sync all my photos to my iPhone. This syncs my events, photos, faces, albums as they have been arranged in iPhoto in my Mac. (I cant delete them in my iPhone once they are synced. I have to delete in my iPhoto and sync again to have similar setup in my iPhone which isn't a problem).
    NOW I decided I don't want to manually go through all this process and went on to enable the Photo Stream ON in my iPhone and iPhoto with iCloud.
    THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM ENSUES.
    1. I  Take photos with my iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. This automatically syncs with my Mac due to Photo Stream which a really convenient.
    3. It syncs automatically to Photo Stream, Events, Photos, Faces section in the iPhoto and I put put some of them (notes) in a separate album.
    THE PROBLEM:
    The Photos does not show up in the Album, Events and Photos Folder in my iPhone. They are only shown in Camera Roll. So I thought to sync using iTunes so the new Photos will be arranged in their appropriate folder like it used to with my prior process of syncing. This worked, HOWEVER the photos in my iPhone started showing DUPLICATES! Apparently, one comes from Photo Stream (which, if I delete on my phone also deletes in all my iDevices) and the other duplicate is from the iTunes sync (this sets up my photos as arranged in iPhoto which is what i WANT to happen as Photo Stream does not sync them accordingly).
    SOLUTION I AM IN SEARCH FOR:
    I want to be able to take photos with my iPhone that automatically syncs in iCloud AND iPHOTO AS ARRANGED IN MY MAC (Albums, Events etc) WITHOUT PROBLEM OF PHOTO DUPLICATES.

    Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing  the iPod Photo Cache.
