I sometimes find Photo Stream off on my MacBook. Why?

Sometimes (after restart?) I go to iPhoto, select Photo Stream and a screen comes up asking if I want to turn Photo Stream on. I didn't turn it off.

You have iCloud control panel installed on your PC and you're signed in? If so, sign out, restart the machine, then sign back in.

  • HT4890 How do I  find photo stream on my icloud

    When I enter ICloud from my PC I cannot find Photo Stream, Why???

    What about your specified download folder? More info on iCloud in general (and should cover Photo Stream on a PC):
    iCloud Guide
    Says that the default folder is in C://Users/(Your name)/Pictures/Photo Stream/My Photo Stream

    We had to replace my husbands iphone. Everything but our photos have transferred to the new phone.  I made sure that the new device is showing up in find my iphone.  I have turned on photo stream on all devices.  Why aren't they streaming to new phone?

    Only photos taken in the last 30 days are transferred using Photo Stream.

  • Can't find photo stream on iPhoto

    When I first had my iphone in September 2012, my photos were downloaded directly to my macbook through icloud.  Now, I can't seem to see the photos I took on my phone on my computer.  Does anyone know why it would stop working?  Do I need to update iphoto?

    Here's what you need to use iCloud and Photo Stream:
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
    The above is from this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    If your MacBook meets these requirements then try the following:
    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.

  • HT201317 Cant find photo stream in iPhoto

    Ipad, Iphone have photo stream but cant seem to find it on my Mac in iphoto.  There is nothing on the left handside menu for photo stream.  Is there anything I need to do to have it appear or am I looking in the wrong place for it.  Just returned from vacation where I loaded all photos off my camera to my iPad thinking I can photo stream them to my Mac later so stumped as to where to go from here.
    Appreciate any advice.

    To use photostream on your Mac, you need OS X 10.7.2 or better and the latest version of iPhoto. Do you meet these requirements.

  • HT4890 I cant find photo stream on icloud but i have it on my iphone

    I recently droped my phone in water. I am looking to get my photos onto icloud and I know that I have photo stream on my iphone 4, however I cant find them on icloud.

    The image files aren't viewable in a browser. They are "pushed" via Wi-Fi to your other devices that have Lion or iOS 5.1.

  • Can't find Photo Stream on computer!!

    I have the Verizon iPhone 4 and sync it to a HP desktop that runs Windows Vista.  I wanted to view my pics for the first time on Photo Stream on my computer.  I was unable to find them.  I read through the help sections and learned I needed to do the following:
    Start Menu - DONE
    Control Panel - DONE
    Network - DONE
    iCloud icon - UNABLE to click on it because it is NOT THERE.
    HELP!!!  How do I access my pics?  How do I view all 600+ pics I have stored?

    Do you have photo stream turned on, on your iPhone?  (Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream)
    The next step after that would be to install iCloud control panel:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
    Once you run that and sign in, you will see a photo stream option.

  • HT201317 help - can't find photo stream in my icloud account..

    I am new to all this... I could see mail, contact, calendar, iwork at my icloud account on the web but where do I find the photo stream to view my photos online?

    I'm not new to iCloud myself, but I too would like the opportunity to manage my photos online, and also perform rudimentary editing such as rotation, cropping and other activities, as I cannot perform these with the Windows Photo Gallery once the photos are downloaded to my computer (I get the error message: "This photo can't be saved because of a problem with the file's properties." And, I often get photos with incorrect rotation because of how I or others hold my chosen iDevice and would sure like to edit these before they're locked on my computer. I share them to Facebook often, and admittedly can definitely use THEIR rotation tool, but I would like the flexibility of doing it to the photos in Photo Stream, too.

  • Apple TV can't find my computer/ipad or itunes libraries of either but does find photo stream. (home sharing support all done, no fix) any idea's?

    apple tv 3, software: 5.2
    Using an Ipad2 , ios 6.1.2
    can't seem to share in itunes?

    Your Apple TV won't be able to access your iPad library. The reason that it will connect to Photo Stream is because it is pulling it from your iCloud account, not by connecting to your computer. Here are some things to consider (without knowing more about your issue):
    1. Are the Apple TV & computer with iTunes connected to the same network?
    2. Is iTunes open on the computer?
    3. Do you have Home Sharing setup on the computer and the Apple TV with the same account?

  • Can't Find Photo Streams in iPhoto 9.6 (Yosemite)

    Just upgraded to Yosemite.
    When I click the iCloud item under "Shared", I see all of my last 1000 photos in "My Photo Stream".  What's missing are the 30 or so photo streams I've either joined or created over the past year.
    I see them on my photo / iPad, so I know they are there.  Is there a bug / issue where iPhoto can't see these right now? Or is there some magic setting somewhere that I'm missing?
    Adam

    Go to iPhoto's iCloud preference pane and uncheck the My Photo Stream and Photo Sharing checkboxes.  Close iPhoto, relaunch, go back to that preference pane and recheck those two boxes:

  • Cannot find Photo Stream on Mac / No iLifeAssetManagement folder

    I want to access my Photo Stream without iPhoto. Supposedly, these photos are located in the folder found at: ~Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/assets/sub. However, I do not have an iLifeAssetManagement folder -- and it is *not* because it is hidden, as I can see my hidden files. It simpy doesn't exist.
    I just upgraded my Macbook Pro from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion -- so perhaps this has something to do with it.

    You have to download the iCloud Control Panel on PC
    Control Panel> Network and Internet>iCloud

  • I can't see the photos on my photo stream (laptop) on my iPhone. why?

    I can't see all my photos on my iPhone 5s,i have to go to my laptop to see them (photo stream no longer on my iPhone). Why is this so, i thought you could view/delete photos from all devices.(running the latest software)

    Photostream does not have an option to be backed up. If you backed up pictures from photostream then you will find them in the place of back up. If you just had your photostream "on" it was streaming to all devices connected back then, but will not sync over to new devices. It is rather streaming and not syncing service, so there is no option to go backward. There is a slight chance that you will still get last 30 days of your pictures, that is how long photostream server keeps those pictures for you.
