Hey Horstfromab,
Thanks for the question. You can enable photo stream on your PC by following these steps:
PC: Open the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and select the checkbox for Photos (Photo Stream in iCloud Control Panel 2.x). You can click the Options button to verify that My Photo Stream is enabled and adjust the settings. Be sure to click Apply when done.

I tried to upload a jpeg photo as an attachment to an email and received the message that icloud could not upload it. What can I do to attach a jpeg to an email?

When I try to attach a jpeg to an email, I get a message that icloud will not upload and to compress the image, but when I compress the image and try to attach, I get the same refusal to upload the image. How do I fix this problem?

Are you trying to email from inside iPhoto? If so what version of iPhoto are you using and do you have iPhoto set as the email client in the General preference pane?
If you're runnaing a version of iPhoto that has iPhoto as a email client option and it's set go into the Accounts pane and delete the iCloud account, close iPhoto, reboot, relaunch iPhoto and add it back.
The other option is to set Mail as the email client. This will give you more mailing options than you had with iPhoto as the client.
If you're using Mail from outside of iPhoto try removing the accout from Mail's Accounts prelference pane and then add it back.

I bought Pages and Numbers for my iMac and so far everything was OK.
Suddenly i have a problem with connection to iCloud.
Dokuments created on iMac in Pages or Numbers are not transfered to iCloud. Not uploaded to iCloud. There is a sign (small shape of iCloud), that they are waiting to be uploaded to iCloud.
I think the iCloud is OK.
i can see and manage documents in iCloud. i can create them on iPad and see them and delete them in iCloud.
But not on iMac.
i dont know what has happened and I am not abble to find the solution. It was OK till some days ago….

I have a similar problem! Everything stopped working after upgrading to Mac OS 10.8.4 through the App Store. Help!

List/Report of employees whose photos not uploaded

Hi Friends
We have uploaded employee photos in SAP, but few employee photos are missing. Do we have some option to find list of employees whose photos not uploaded.
Please help
Thanks and regards
Surya

Hi Surya,
You may have to write a custom report using FM "HR_IMAGE_EXISTS".
-> For each employee check if image exist using FM "HR_IMAGE_EXISTS"
-> If the FM does not return any output then that employee does not have any photo uploaded.
Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Photos not uploading to iCloud photo library from PC

Hopefully I am not the only person with this problem, but it's driving me round the bend.
iCloud installed on PC and default folder Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream contains c1,800 photos
When I got to Favourites\iCloud Photos\My Photostream there are only 5 photos
When I try to manually add photos in the explorer window Favourites\iCloud Photos\My Photostream it seams to crash or just not update
When I visit iCloud.com there are only 489 photos and as others have described there is no upload button in the browser interface.
So in summary it doesn't upload from PC and I cant upload from the browser despite all pictures sitting in the right folder the syncing doesn't appear to work.
Please, Please help!! :-)

Same here - no upload button for me, too. OS X Lion, Safari 6.1.6. Trying not to take it as personal.

Photos not uploading to iCloud Photo Library from Photos beta

I have been trying for a couple of weeks now to upload photos from my Mac to the iCloud Photo Library using the new Photos beta. I have about 2,800 photos and the upload process just stalls with about 2,000 photos left to upload.
I've tried turning the upload on and off and rebuilding the library but nothing works. A couple of times when restarting the upload process I have received this error message:
Referenced files will not upload to iCloud Photo Library
Select referenced files in your library and choose “Consolidate” from the File menu to copy the original files into the library.
So I gather I'm supposed to select a few files and consolidate them, but I have no idea what the "referenced" files are. Might anyone know?
thanks!

Photos not uploading to iCloud Photo Library

My issue is with iCloud Photo Library on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.3). Works fine for a few days, then gets stuck and won't upload anything to iCloud, which in turn won't show up in the Photos app on my Mac (OS X 10.3.3). Currently it's been stuck on "4 Photos to Upload" for a over a day now. This happened last week as well and I had to shut off iCloud Photo Library and turn back on. It eventually worked, but that was a long painful process because I have 80GB of photos.
It's not a wifi issue either, and I've rebooted the phone as well. I've been on 2 separate very fast internet connections and only used half the space on my 200 GB iCloud plan. I've edited a few photos with Snapseed and Camera+ using extensions – could it be a corrupt photo using a 3rd party app causing the problem?
When iCloud Photo Library works, it's great, but this is the 2nd time in 2 weeks to hang during upload. I wish there was a way to refresh it or force it to upload without turning the whole thing off and on. Anyone else having this issue?

Same here - no upload button for me, too. OS X Lion, Safari 6.1.6. Trying not to take it as personal.

How can I see what iCloud Photos is uploading right now?

I selected a large number of photos (and videos) across many different photo albums be uploaded by iPhoto (9.5.X) from my rMBP 15 (OS X 10.9.4) to several different streams (named by year 2003, 2004, 2005 ...). The number of photos would have been around 5000 and the videos would have been less than 50.
My problem is that the iCloud Photos component (the name of the component within the activity monitor) is perpetually uploading content but nothing is showing up within any of my devices subscribed to those streams - yet the network tab on activity monitor is showing 1-2 GB of data uploaded each day.
The first few streams contained most of the photos from the year (maybe 80%) but by the time it got to 2006 and 2007 it just shows 1 or 2 photos and nothing else.
I have a reasonable network connection 1Mb/s upstream and 20 Mb/s down and I have left the machine running 24x7 for many days at a time - all the time with activity monitor registering a large total network upload but nothing is showing within my streams on any of my devices including the rMBP that I sent the files from.
I have given up in my desire to upload the photos - I just want iPhoto to stop attempting to upload files as it is consuming all my upstream bandwidth and preventing me from using my internet connection - so much so that I have gone back to my old MBP.
I have looked within the console log application and can not find anything useful when filtering using the strings "iCloud" or "iPhoto".
Can anyone provide any suggestions as to how I can locate the files being attempted to be uploaded? Or how I can prevent them from being attempted to be uploaded?
As a last resort I am willing to purge files from my iPhoto library (by putting them on another storage system).

I have deleted all of the streams that I believed to be causing problems and it is still occurring.
I deleted all of the year based streams and several other older streams and it still did not help. It still attempted to upload 1GB of data last night.
I suspect that there may be a problem with photostream agent component. When I deleted the year based streams (which were all created from my rMBP) they failed to delete from any of my devices (iPhone, iPad) - which I believe is one of control points of iPhoto /iCloud.
To answer my original stated question I was able to track which files were originally being accessed iPhoto / photostream agent using this command
sudo dtrace -n 'syscall::open*:entry { printf("%s %s",execname,copyinstr(arg0)); }' | grep photo
which pointed me to a set of folders located here
/var/folders/n_/jvfrft450wz30sbn8sh6s9qm0000gn/T/com.apple.photostream-agent/ass et-Ntk5Aq
Is there someway that I can force the photostream agent to purge it's state or flush it's cache ...ie to force it to want to restart cleanly (ie forget about everything that it thinks that it needs to upload) without actually deleting every single photo that I have on my machine?

HT6413 Why are my photos not uploaded to my photo stream on my PC?

Running Win7 on my PC. Photos taken on Ipad or Iphone 5 used to upload automatically. Updated to Iphone 6 and they no longer do so. Have checked all settings and they appear to be in order. Any reason they should not upload to the photo stream?

I found the problem. AS it turns out, when I created my iCloud account I eneded up creating a NEW ID. The process is a little bit confusing and it is apparently easy to get one ID on the iCloud on your iMac and another on your iPhone. This is what I had done. It was a simple matter of signing out of iCloud on the Mac and then signing back in wiht my original Apple ID (the one on the iPhone) once I signed backin, pictures starte appearing in the Photo Stream. Easypeasy!

Photos not uploading.

Installed 10.10.3, launched Photos. Turned on iCloud Photo Library.
It's not uploading. I have photos in iCloud, but I have many more photos on my Mac that are not in iCloud, and they're simply not uploading.
Photos Preferences says it's "Updating..." but nothing is uploading.
Is there any way to figure out what's going on here?

I have similar problems - 42,000 pictures to upload to iCloud (my laptop iPhoto library). Strictly though (at least for me) it's not that it's NOT uploading, it's just horrendously slow. I've had it running for the past 36 hours and its barely made a dent. At a rough estimate I'd say it's uploading around 1 photo a minute - so at this pace I 'might' be finished in a month of solid uploading.
I really hope this gets fixed. I had this problem with the iPhoto beta too and had to abandon it. The iCloud photo library feature is about the only apple update of late that I've been really hoping for - but in it's current release it's just unusable.

HT201077 Photos not uploading

Since October, my phone is not uploading my pictures to my Photo Stream on my computer when I am connected to wifi at home. I have checked and everything on the phone and computer is turned on and giving permissions. What am I missing?

Welcome to the Apple Community macrackalackin.
    1.    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    2.    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    3.    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.
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.

ICloud Photo not syncing + High CPU process (Win 8.1 pro)

This is a new persistent issue with my iCloud and I can't figure out how to fix it permanently because I was able to fix it few days ago, but issues return back a day later! So here's the full story...
I just received a new (AWESOME!!) Surface Pro 3 i5 256 GB tablet with Windows 8.1 professional. I installed iCloud on it as well as iTunes and Quicktime (the basics isn't it?). When setting up my iCloud account first, everything sync up correctly but after a few days (3-4 days), I notice than my Surface tablet are becoming pretty hot and making some fan noise (common Surface issue) when I didn't use it really. So I checked for a high-CPU process and I noticed than "iCloud Photo Stream Downloader" are stuck at 30-35% CPU for an hours ago. Moreover at this point I realized than my photos are not syncing for a few days. I fix the high-CPU process by rebooting, but my photo are still not syncing at all and after a few minutes after reboot, the "downloader" process stuck back to 30-35% and still not syncing!
So I first try some of the workaround found on the internet like sign out iCloud app, then kill all iCloud related process and delete folder %appdata%/Apple/Mediastream and reboot and sign in... same thing... after a few minutes, high-CPU usage + not syncing! I try to "repair" iCloud installation... same thing (high CPU + not syncing)... I uninstalled iCloud + reinstalled... same thing!
I finally fix the situation by uninstalling ALL Apple related software (iTunes, iCloud, Quicktime, Apple Soft Upd, Apple Mobile Sup, Apple App Sup, Bonjour, etc) and thereafter deleting all "Apple_xxxx" folders in %appdata% and also remove all registry keys from the Windows Registry related to Apple. Reboot then reinstall iTunes first and then run "Apple Soft Upd" to install automatically iCloud + Quicktime... then reboot, sign in and then the photo finally sync this time and no high-CPU process!
But a days later... High CPU + Fan noise on the tablet... so checked and the god **** "iCloud Photo Downloader" are again stuck at 30-35% and no more photo sync (I saw the old photos, but not the last day's photo are not sync).
Anybody experience this situation and know how to fix it PERMANENTLY? I checked at my Apple iCloud LOGS and the only thing I saw that can be suspicious is the last line of the log who's :
[2472 @ Tue Nov 11 19:45:09 2014] [YSLog ApplePhotoStreamsDownloader.exe] defaults key ShouldLog in domain ApplePhotoStreamsDownloader.exe is (null)
Please help!!

In fact I discovered later I have this issue on all my Windows computers... both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, both MACs (BootCamp) or true PC computers. Except only the Surface Pro 3 tablet seem to have the HIGH-CPU process issue, but all my other Windows PCs stopped syncing too after a few weeks or so.
I just build a BRAND NEW HP Pro Desktop computer running Windows 8.1 Professional and a few days later iCloud Photo stopped syncing too... this is the straw that broke the camel's back! This PC is brand new and no other software are installed except iCloud, iTunes, QuickTime and Microsoft Office 2013 (Office 365). PC is brand new (1 week old) and iCloud Photos sync is already broken!
I also have a few Windows 7 PCs at home (HTPCs on TVs) where iCloud Control Panel is installed and after looking at them, they stopped syncing too for a while (many months ago) but I didn't noticed it yet because I don't check photos often on them.
For now I just give up and disabled the iCloud Photo Sync completely on all my Windows PCs. It only sync between my two iPads, my two iPhones and my two Macs computer (MBPr + iMac 27") and that's it... that's sad, but I'm tired loosing my time with that crappy software!
PLEASE APPLE!! MAKE ICLOUD FOR WINDOWS BETTER!!

Iphoto photos not uploading to internet with prompt box

Photos not uploading to iPhoto with chrome filter

Since updating to iOS8, photos taken on my iPhone 5s with the chrome filter are uploading into iPhoto without the filter. Does anyone know how to change this? I want the photos on my computer to be the same as my phone. Please help

How are you importing? Photo Stream or USB?
Right now, there is no way in the Photos.app to save a copy the photo with the filter added to the camera roll, so it can be transferred this way by Photo Stream or USB. Mail the photo or share it to Dropbox, and wait for the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) to be released.

Really need your help! Pc photos not uploading to pc.

My pc photos ARE NOT uploading to iPad, but my iPad photos are are loading to my PC. Having a family get together tonight and need to show pics.
Please help!

Have you the iPad User Guide? If not, download it from the link under manuals at the start of this forum an tke time to give it a cursory read at the very least.
