HT201317 Photo stream stopped working on my PC

My photo stream on my PC stopped working after a couple of months. I tried resetting it and followed the directions to go through the Control Panel and check the box next to Photo Stream, but it would not allow me to check that box.  Help?

Having same problem. I open the icloud program, check the photstrem box. push apply then exit program. Open program back up and its not selected again. Also the options button doesnt work after you check the box.

  • ICloud shared photo stream stopped working with new photo app

    iCloud shared photo stream stopped working since the last OX update with the new photo app.  I don't have access anymore to the sharing albums, even those that I own

    iCloud shared photo stream stopped working since the last OX update with the new photo app.  I don't have access anymore to the sharing albums, even those that I own
    Don't the albums show at all?
    Are you signed in  with the same Apple ID that you used with iCloud before?  And are you currently browsing the System Photos Library? Only one Photos library, enabled as the System Photos library can sync with iCloud.
    For me it helped to disable iCloud Photo sharing in the System Preferences > iCloud > Photos > Options
    and in the Photos. app Preferences < iCloud.
    Then restart the Mac and enable the same Preferences again.
    And wait.
    The Shared albums came slowly back and were all back after one day.

  • After iOS 5.1. Photo stream stopped working on my iPad

    After updating to  iOS 5.1. Photo stream stopped working on my iPad 2. I tried turning it off and on.reset the iPad too. I didnt do anything else to make photo stream  stop working.I tried closing the camera app before trying to access photo stream and waited to see if it would upload to iCloud and nothing. Photo stream works fine on my iPhone 4. Advice and help please?

    Having the same problem on my wife's iPad2. All settings are correct. If I take a pic with the iPad, it shows up on her iPhone4 in Photo Stream. When I access Photo Stream on her iPad2, there is nothing there. Here's the really weird part: when I add a photo to iMessage on her iPad2, it lets me select Photo Stream and the photos are there!!! Any fixes besides a restore???

  • HT201317 Photo stream not working on all photos

    Why does the iPhone not always send photos I ve taken to iCloud or to my iPad ? Does iCloud/photo stream really work? Never worked properly for me..... Some do and most of time don t . Both have been in the same room to pick up wifi for over 48 hours and still not all photos sync

    PhotoStream will only upload newly taken pictures. All older pictures or pictures that existed before adding/enabling photostream will not be affected/uploaded. Also PhotoStream will not function if the devices battery is under 20% battery. To troubleshoot, open the task manager and exit photos/gallery and then re-open/recheck.

  • Photo stream stopped working after update

    Installed the 6.0.1 update on my 4s and all of a sudden Photostream stopped working. It did work for two or three days after the update but then stopped. The iCloud panel on my pc is grayed out. The phone itself has everything regarding Photostream turned on. Any suggestions besides restarting Photostream and losing the photos already in there? I am running Windows 8 on the PC...(Piece of CR*P)

    You have probably enabled iCloud Drive on one of your mobile devices after upgrading to iOS 8. Then "documents in the cloud" will no longer work. Unfortunately, the upgrade to iCloud Drive cannot be undone. You'll have to wait for Yosemite.
    See this link: Be aware, be careful, be prepared for iCloud Drive | TUAW: Apple news, reviews and how-tos since 2004
    And this:  iCloud Drive FAQ
    While you are waiting for the Yosemite release you could sync your iWork documents with Dropbox.
    As to My Photo Stream:
    The new Photos.app stores the photos differently. There is no longer a Camera Roll, and My Photo Stream is no longer visible as a separate album. You will find the Photo Stream photos in the "Recently Added" album.
    See this Help text on how to access the Photos in iOS 8:

  • Why has my icloud photo stream stopped working on windows xp

    I am unable to photo stream through iCloud anymore I have done it recently but it has stopped working, I've updated everything but when the control panel comes up I keep getting a Runtime error from windows and icloud photos is not enabled when I try to view on Windows Explorer.
    Any help to solve this problem?
    Helen

    Photo stream can be problematic on a PC.  There's a long discussion on this here: My Photo Stream is empty with iCloud Control Panel 3.0.  I ran into this problem myself and was able to get it working again by changing the iCloud Photo location back to /Pictures/Photo Stream as posted by RobBar on page 13 of this discussion.

  • ICloud shared photo stream stopped working for one subscriber

    A shared photostream stopped working for one subscriber. Tried resending the invite several times but after the person clicks on the link, it says "stream no longer shared". Have tried alternate emails and no avail. Anyone else have this issue? I tried resending the invite to myself and to a phone number but also having the same issue. No issues uploading to the photostream or any issues for anyone else.

    Reassigned email address in contacts from "home" to "iCloud" and that did the trick!

  • Photo stream stopped working

    I was using photo stream and right in the middle of it it just stopped. Now it won't transfer anymore of my pictures. I have 2 "new" iPads and was trying to load all of my pics from one to the other.

    Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)
    You should connect your device to your computer with a USB cable and import any photos taken pre-activation manually.
        •    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.
