HT201317 Photo Stream pics haven't "loaded" yet. Why?

A friend added photos to an album we share on photo stream, but many of the pics keep saying "loading" for two days now. Why haven't they fully loaded yet?

If you enabled photo stream on it at a later point it time, it's probably because photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days (even though the last 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted).  If any photo stream photos were older than 30 days when you enable photo stream on the 2nd computer, it would not have received them as they were no longer in iCloud.

  • HT201317 Photo Stream Pics on Windows PC

    Hi..Im new to all this but can someone tell me if the pictures on photo stream on my windows PC stay permenantly or do they get deleted every 30days?

    Hi...
    If you delete the photos from Photo Stream on your phone, they will also be removed from your computer. If you simply turn Photo Stream off on your phone then they will not be deleted from the computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • Photo stream pics lost after ios8 upgrade

    Afather upgrading to IOS 8 I lost all my photo stream pics. I checked on the cloud where I was advised they would be and they aren't there. Also, keep getting "uploading 1 photo" and screen shot doesn't work anymore.

    Have a look at this support document:   My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support  http://support.apple.com/HT201317
    It says:
    How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the Recently Added album or My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the Photos tab (or My Photo Stream album in iOS 7). From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to another album to keep them on your device forever.
    The photos will stay, if you import them to albums.
    However, I could have sworn that they were all in albums in my iPhoto that were imported.
    Are you talking about iPhoto on your iPhone/iPad or iPhoto on your Mac? YourMac will keep photos, that have been imported to events.
    Your if albums in iPhoto iOS should have been migrated to photos. Did you migrate your iOS iPhoto Library?

  • Lately I've been importing photos from my iPhone and when I attempt to edit them they seem to disappear.  Some reappper as a photo stream pic (some as the edited version and some not).  But they no longer appear as a recent import.  Lots more happens

    Lately I've been importing photos from my iPhone to iPhoto and when I attempt to edit them they seem to disappear.  Some reappper as a photo stream pic (some as the edited version and some not).  But they no longer appear as a recent import.  Lots more happens and I'm wondering if it's because I have a 5-year old Mac book or iPhoto is having issues.  I'm not happy with disappearing photos especially after I've deleted them from my iphone after importing them to my macbook.
    Has anyone experienced similar difficulties and what can I do?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off".

  • HT201317 photo stream is not working, won't go to PC

    I have 980 pics on my iPhone in the photo stream, not once has it ever sent photos to my PC folder and I've set up iCloud a LONG time ago. I want these pics because my PC crashed, so how do I get them back to PC if it won't upload them?

    Had the same problem. I uninstalled icloud, restarted my pc and reinstalled icloud and it's working fine. Hope this helps.

  • HT201317 photo stream not working

    I am trying to transfer pics from laptop windows computer to photo stream on i pad..not transferring over?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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.

  • My photo stream pics not showing in my PC

    Unable to transfer my iphone or ipad pics to my PC photo stream????. is blank?

    Your photos are still on your phone.  With iOS 8 there is no My Photo Stream or Camera Roll any more.  The MPS has been replaced with the Recent Activity album.
    The CR is replaced by the Collections mode.  The closest we can get to the Camera Roll is to turn off the Summarize Photos feature in the Settings/Photos & Camera pane and view the photos in the Collections/Moments window.
    The photos will be in chronological order when scrolled up from the bottom of the window.
    The Recent Activity album is showing the photos added in the last 30 days going back to 8/20 (today being 9/18).  In iPhoto on a Mac the My Photo Stream is showing more like 31 days, 8/19 to today, 8/20. It must be how the two devices calculate the last 30 days.
    WARNING:  If you use iTunes to sync photos between your iPhone or iPad and your Mac do not activate the iCloud Drive. Doing so will kill the capability of using iTunes to sync with your mobile device and disable Documents & Data syncing for your iCloud account on OS X Mavericks and earlier Macs, as well as iOS 7 and earlier devices.

  • Where are my photo stream pics

    I have a new account but where have my icloud pics gone?

    You can't view your Photo Stream files at iCloud.com.
    They are merely "pushed" to your other devices and computers for viewing.

  • Photo stream pics are sideways. But only PEOPLE!

    This is weird. Some pics show up in the photostream folder on my PC correctly. Others show up sideways. Of those that are sideways, some can be rotated and some give me an error that it can't be saved.  Which ones can't? The ones that have people in them. I'm not kidding. I just went through 20 photos. If there is a person in the pic it can't be rotated. If there are people in the distance I can rotate. I have a pic of a chimp. That rotated. I have a pic of a goat, that rotated. A pic of a diet coke can rotated. There is some voo doo magic going on here. there is facial recognition at play here. What have I stumbled across here?

    Upload to the shared Photo Streams can take a long time. Sometimes hours. Did the photos appear by now in the stream?
    Is the iCloud status o.k. ( iCloud Support webpage)?
    Did you share from your mac or from a mobile device? And where are you checking the stream? On your Mac? If you are uploading from a mobile device - is the battery fully charged? Uploading to the Photo Stream is the first that will be suspended, if the device needs charging.
    have ypu exceeded any limits? Daily hourly upload rates? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858

  • Photo Stream pictures "cannot be loaded".

    New Photo Streams, as well as old ones, are fine on my computer using Aperture, but when visited on the web by myself and others I share with, a gray screen with an exclamation mark appears instead of the photo, saying photo "cannot be loaded."  It was there yesterday!  They were there 3 months ago!  What gives?

    There is a long discussion since few days with similar problems.It looks like a problem with Apple's servers:
