HT4906 I cant turn on photos in iCloud. Other things are turned on OK.Why won't it turn on?

I cant turn on photos in my newly installed icloud.
other things are turned on but photos are greyed out.

Because iPhoto '09 does not support PhotoStream. You need to upgrade iPhoto '11 and at least Lion

    my iphone has broken and i cant get my photos off icloud?

    apparently you can download the tracks one more time free of charge does anybody know how??"
    Not true.  You get one and only one download.
    In some instances, itunes has allowed another download to a few.  This is not the norm.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.
    Hope all goes well.

  • My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?

    My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?
    The problem is she can't update to new software until she connect to iTunes, but she don't want to loose all that info.
    My question is:
    If she register her apple ID on that new computer, and sync the phone, will she loose everything? or iTunes will back up first (because apple id match) and then sync.
    Otherwise, how can I do it? The closest apple store is 3 hours away. thanks!

    Before you connect to a new PC, make sure that autosync is disabled in Edit/Preferences/Devices, otherwise her phone will be wiped during the following sync.
    If she has data on the phone she wants to save, back up manually:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to her new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing. Transfer the purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

  • HT201317 iphone4 forced restore.  Cant see my photos on ICloud?  Should I restore factory settings Will I be able to recover my photos after restore?

    Screen locked yesterday x 5 times.  Powered on/off AOK.  Connected to ITunes on windows PC, upgraded OS as suggested, Synch performed, backup halted Out of space?  tried to delete apps from ITunes directly, Error messages "disk is full".  Phone screen now showing ITunes logo and ITunes prompting a Restore of phone.  What should I do?  Will I lose my photos?  I cant see any option to view my photos on ICloud (Contacts appear okay on ICloud) 

    Photos are not available for viewing on icloud and are not backed up to it from a PC or Mac, only from an ios device.  It sounds like your iphone was unable to perform a backup to icloud before going bad (or whatever happened to it).  You'll just have to perfrom a restore to see if any photos come back.
    But the usual advice regarding photos is that you sync photos to the PC periodically as you would photos from a camera.  If you've been doing that, then you'll find copies on the PC.

    No. It is simply a conduit to send to other computers/iOS devices.
    You really (really, really, really) should send that suggestion here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html
    I have and I urge others to do the same.
    Agreed!  It would be nice to edit photos from the website.  As it is, it's very easy to ADD photos to Photostream.  I use Aperture, and all you do is click a button at the top of the screen.  However, you cannot delete photos individually... go figure.  To me, this is a stunning omission and makes the service much less useful.

  • TS4036 i cant get any photos from icloud on my new phone, how can i retrieve them?

    i am unable to retrieve any photos from icloud on my new phone even though i had back up. All of my contacts have downloaded. Could anyone be of some help please thank you

    OP you need to be more specific.  ARE you saying that they did not restore from your icloud backup? Or are you saying that they didn't show up under your photostream?
    If its the 2nd one, because photos are only available to other devices in your photostream for 30 days. Beyond that, they only show on the original device.  To get around this, you can, on the original device, share them all to a shared photostream, inviting only yourself to share the photostream and them you'll be able to access them on the new device.  Fair warning, sharing them to the shared photostream can take some time so don't delete them till they all show up.

  • Since updating to Ios7 I can't download films on my iPad mini, also iCloud seems to turn itself off. My other iPads are fine, as the mini was under warranty, they have given me a new one. However the problem is still there.

    Since updating to IOS 7 I can't download purchased movies, I think the problem is iCloud, as that also keeps turning itself off.
    I've been given a new iPad by my local apple store as it was under warranty, but I'm still having exactly the same, so it's not the pad, also my other pads are ok

    If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely. Remember

  • Why won't notifications turn off?

    On my iPad 2, I don't want an incoming message (text message) to trigger an alert. In Settings>Notifications, "Messages" is "Not In Notification Center." When I select "Messages", the settings are Notification Center OFF, Alert Style NONE, Badge App Icon OFF, Show Preview OFF, View in Lock Screen OFF.  Yet, I continue to get all the alerts including the sound.  What's going on?

    But this is a flaw or bug since, if I want the metronome off, I want it off.
    The other thing is that, when it does come on, it requires me to hit the metronome symbol twice to turn it off.
    I tried again, and sadly, that is what is happening (version 2.0.2 on my iPad).  Definitely a bug. I did not notice it in earlier versions.
    You may want to send feedback to Apple to let the developers know. You can use this form: Apple - GarageBand IOS - Feedback
    Or, if you have a developer account, use the Bug Reporter there.
    Added:
    The metronome switching the control bar has been introduced with GarageBand 2.0.2. Have you already updated to GarageBand 2.0.3?  I have not tested with 2.0.3 on my iPad.
    Okay, thanks for confirming this. I knew it didn't seem right. I rarely use this app, but thought I'd give it a spin for recording a song idea with multi-tracks. Hard to believe this got by the beta testers since you can't record without running into the metronome all the time.

  • I cant share my photos to iCloud

    I want so share my photos but iPhoto keeps on telling me that I must enable/sign in to iCloud, which I've done. I keep on ticking the photos box but as soon as I close the window it resets and we are back to square 1.  I've also tried to sign in to iCloud from system preferences but it keeps on reseting the choice. How can I fix this? I have OS 10.9.3 and my iPhoto software is up to date.

    keep on ticking the photos box but as soon as I close the window it resets and we are back to square 1.
    This is in the system/iCloud preference pane, right?  Boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down), select Disk Utility and repair both the disk permissions and the disk.  Reboot normally and try setting the System/iCloud preference again.

  • HT1296 i have synced my iphone with laptop but cant find my photos looks like every thing else is there

    i have synced my iphone with laptop cant find photos?

    Syncing does not move photos from the iPhone to the computer. Moving photos from the Camera Roll on the phone to the computer is done by importing photos, just like you would with a digital camera. Connect the iPhone, start your importing program if Auto Run does not start, and import pictures.

  • HT5622 I can't get my photos to icloud. They are not even showing up on my itunes.

    I have the very 1st generation and I'm trying to make sure everything is backed up to my icloud AND itunes. Itunes seems to have all my apps and music, etc. but none of my photos. I backed it up to my icloud and there's no photos! I'd like to make sure everything is safe so I can reset it to factory setting so I can sell it back to get a newer version. Help??

    Do these devices have enough battery? You might need a certain percentage, not sure.
    Are they all connected to the Internet and signed in with the same Apple ID?

  • Why has my iPhone 4 shut down and why won't it turn back on?

    Please help! My iPhone 4 has randomly turned itself off and I can't get it to turn back on again. It was fully charged last night, but despite this, I tried plugging it in again in case that was the issue, but nothing. Worried I'm going to lose photos etc!

    Are you SURE it is charging indeed?
    Dunno on the i4's, but on my i5 I get visual confirmation in the guise of a green "battery" displaying the state of charge when I initially plug the USB adapter, plus a special tone. So I can be sure that juice will flow in.
    Your problem description begs crying out "bad battery" and/or "bad cable". Try with another USB cable first as the easiest thing to try.

  • Help! during my photo slide show/some screens are green and/colored-why

    This is my first photo slide show in IMOVIE 8, when I go to "play" my slide show, some photo are NOT showing up INSTEAD a "colored" screen comes up. WHY? Not sure what I did wrong.

    I to have the same problem. It is very annoying, I name my photos so that they would be in a specific order or grouping.
    It appears that a programmer slipped? When I write code to copy files I would sort the list by filename as done in OS versions prior to 4.0.
    The order of the photos is now in the order that they were added to the folder which is then sync'd to our pods.
    I for one am not willing to remove and rebuild my whole photo library re-adding the photos to the sync'd in the order I wish to see them every time I wish to add more photos.
    It is a disappointment, but I have not been online in a couple of weeks and maybe Apple has caught on and put filename sorting back into the code.

  • Where are my songs and why won't my iPod turn on?!

    I have two questions.
    First, my apple ID has been the same since I was in college.  HOwever, the computer I used in college that had my 2000plus songs on it has died.  Why are my songs not in my iTunes when I log in under my same ID and how can I get them?
    Second, my iPod will not turn on or even be awknowledged by iTUnes when I plug it in. It will start with the apple sign but then go to a sad robot iPod that says "apple.com/support/ipod" which I have been to and the tips didn't work.  Keep in mind I have a very old version on my iPod because before my computer died, it lost the ablility to connect to the internet.
    Please help!

    Why are my songs not in my iTunes when I log in under my same ID and how can I get them?
    Why would they be?  You didn't back them up anywhere and iTunes does automatically redownload them to new library once you have authorized it.  You can redownload most iTunes purchases again at no cost using the instructions in this article.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    As for the error message on your iPod, it sounds like it's hard drive is dying.  See this Apple support document for more information.
