HT201317 I can not view my shared photo stream. Does not show in source list. Help!

I cant view my shared photo stream from my source list. This is preventing me from adding or removing photos. Any ideas?

OT
And it seems you must do this every single time the shared photo stream is updated, ie. photos added/removed. this is pīss poor.

HT201317 How can i Restore a shared photo stream

I Deleted my iCloud account and shared photo stream was deleted, is there a way for restoring my shared photo stream without having to create a new all over again?

You can't delete an iCloud account, you can only delete it from your device. If you log back into your account and enable photo stream, I think you will find that your photo stream photos return.

HT201317 Has anybody an idea, why my jpeg-picture uploaded to Photo Stream does not appear on my S4 like all the other pictures before? Ok, it's 4 years old, but JPEG and taken with a digital camera...! I'm despaired after trying since days...! Thank you!

Ok, it's a 4 year old picture, but taken with a digital camera as jpeg...! This cannot be the problem really, but I'm despaired after trying since days...! Thank you all for any hint you've got for me!

If you asking me, I would suggest to additonally use a second storage service which also allows you to store your pictures over the 30 days period. I personally use Dropbox with automatic upload for that (https://db.tt/cMEgDUFZ), but there are also other storage services like Flickr for example.

I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?

You can't simply change the details.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

The 'Do Not Email' when sharing a Document does not always allow a check mark to be entered.

Just wanted to report this. I have not checked to see if it has been previously submitted. The issue
is intermittent.

I think this happens because you need to send e-mail when you do the first contact with the user. Tellimg him who you are and etc.
When you already "know" that user, u can check the box.
Hope it helps,

Curretly, there is an iCloud blackout. It started this morning around 2AM California time (Pacific), 5AM New York (Eastern). A lot of people have been having issues all day, including me. No iCloud services are online. Even Find My iPhone is down.

Try signing out and back in to the iCloud control panel.

HT4906 In my iphone, photo stream also counts in storage space but as per Apple Photo Stream does not occupy storage space. Any info on this pls.

HT4890 photo stream does not appear on my icloud, where is it???

photo stream does not appear on my icloud, where is it?

You won't see it on icloud.com. It is only accessible by using an iOS device or computer that is signed intoyour iCloud account with photo stream enabled.

My photo stream does not seem to be working as before with the new PHOTOS update. some of my devices are not getting the uploads/downloads

Recommend that you post your question in "Photos".
Remember, Photos is not a replacement for Aperture.

HT201077 Shared Photo Streams do not upload full sized photos!

Oh boy, so it seems that Apple's "optimized for your device" policy with photos has reared its ugly head again (PLEASE, just give us an option for optimizing the size or leaving it the original size like you do for compressing songs to 128kps on our devices!!!!)! The addition of Shared Photo Streams seemed a godsend to me, as prior to iOS 6, my wife's iPhone was stuck in this iCloud ID ghetto, where her device's main account was mine so that we shared the same Photo Stream. This way, when I went into Aperture on the Mac to process and import photos to our home library, all of our mobile pictures were in one place. This came with the consequence that the other "main" iCloud features, such as (inexplicably) Safari syncing, were unusable to her as they were from my personal settings. So once shared Photo Streams came about, I thought "Perfect! Now I can just share all of my photos to her iCloud ID, and then all of our combined pictures will show up in Aperture!" The problem is that, when I looked at the pictures on the Mac from the shared photo stream, they only were available at the "optimized" 3 megapixel resolution for iPhone, not the original 8 megapixel pictures are the photos from the main iCloud ID ones are. This is a huge deal for two reasons, 1. I can't import and process these pictures for saving permanently they're more than HALF the original resolution, 2. Anyone that I share photos to, friends, family, who want to maybe save those to their computer for printing and whatnot, are ALSO stuck with a halfbaked low resolution file!
I did have the a-ha idea, that perhaps if I shared photos from Aperture on my mac to my wife's Photo Stream, perhaps it would then share the full resolution photo as that's what Aperture gets from iCloud's servers. Alas, no, still the shared photo stream only gets the compromised file. There has GOT to be a way for the full resolution pics to be shared, otherwise the service is nearly useless to me! As far as I knew, shared photostreams just link to the original files, so it's not like this will take up any more space on Apple's servers. If someone has a solution, let me know!
The only other solution is to allow the use of more than one Photostream account on a Mac with Aperture. I feel that this is a no-brainer, and a little silly. Either you provide family style iCloud accounts for uses like Photo Stream, or you accept that every iOS user in a family will have their own Photo Stream. This means that they need to be able to be accessed on the same family computer.

I have this same issue except with iPhoto. We each have our own computers and I thought the shared photostream would allow us to each have all the photos, but they aren't full sized.

Shared photo stream option not shown in settings

i downloaded ios 6 in around the first hour that it was launched and i cannot find the menu that can turn on shared photo streams. i have a 4th gen ipod touch. i looked in the settings under the photos and camera menu as well as the share button on a picture in my camera roll, and it is not there.

I just figured the solution out! It worked for me..
The iCloud terms of use has changed, so this option is disappeared. You have to agree with the new terms.
So delete the icloud from your iDevice and, add it again.
Hope it work 4 u..

Shared photo stream is not showing up in settings for iPhone 5 or ipad

Hi there
I am trying to set up a shared photo stream however the option is not coming up on either my iPhone 5 or my iPad (3).
I have tried adjusting the settings (Settings/Photos&Camera/Shared Photo Stream), switching it on & off as well as switching on iCloud again to see if new T&Cs pop up as suggested in other posts - no joy!
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

On your device using iOS 6, try quitting and re-opening the Photos app:
Quit Photos.
From your Home screen, click your Home button twice. Your open applications should appear in a row at the bottom of your screen.
Scroll to find the Photos icon. Press the icon until the icons jiggle.
Tap the red circle in the upper-left corner of the Photos icon. The icon should disappear from the list.
Tap the Home button again to return to normal operations.
Also check the following:
From your Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and make sure the slider is set to the ON position.
From the Home screen, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, make sure the slider is set to ON, and that your device is connected to a wireless network.
Ensure that Camera app is closed on the device where you took the photo. Photo Stream will not upload photos from an iOS device until the Camera app is closed.
Ensure your iOS device has not fallen below 20% battery power. To preserve battery life, Photo Stream downloading and uploading are disabled when the battery reaches this threshold. Downloading and uploading will resume once you charge your device, and the battery charge is greater than 20%.

HT4858 Is anyone else having problems with shared photo stream URLs not updating after photos are added or deleted from a shared photo stream?

I have made quite a few shared photo streams and love the idea of sharing easily with a variety of friends and family. The problem in having is that any modifications made to the shared photostream (adding/deleting pictures) are not updated in the URL I have sent to my family and friends. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream on your Mac.

Shared Photo Stream pics not showing in iPhoto

I have an iPhone 4s running iOS6 and my wife has a new Macbook Pro running Mountain Lion and the latest version of iPhoto.
I created a shared photo stream on my iPhone and sent her the invitation to subscribe. I also added about 6 photos to the photo stream. On her mac, she accepts the invitation to the shared photo stream. Now when she opens iPhoto she sees the photo stream itself but there are 0 pictures in it and even when I add more pictures she never sees them.
Any ideas? Thanks!
