I wanted to put my photos from my iphone to itunes and realized my photo stream wasn't turned on nor was icloud on my cpu.  So after fixing that, i still can not view any pictures on my itunes that are from my iphone.

Not only that but now that photo stream is turned on, it shows 3 photo stream albums, 1 called my photo stream that i made from my cpu,1 photo library, and 1 called photo stream.  when i turn it off, it just deletes the photo stream album and leaves the others.  what do i need to do to do this right?  i just want what's necessary and to be able to view my photos on itunes or wherever it's suppose to be because i have way too many photos on my phone that i want to take off.

Photostream will only work with photos newly taken on your iPhone.   It will not work with photos already on your iPhone.  The idea of Photostream is to allow you to take a photo(s) on your iPhone and a copy will be extended to the Photostream album on the iphone as well as other devices(with Photostream turned on) and your PC (with icloud control panel installed and photostream turned on) so that you can copy those files into your local folder.
If you want to transfer old photos from your iPhone, connect it to your PC and there will be an AUTOPLAY popup window for you to select to import pictures to your local folder.
If the Autoplay window dose not showup, you can go to windows explorer to look for your iPhone and right click to select import pictures:

  • Help!  Photos Library copied to external hard drive, but after preparing the library I can NOT see any pictures.

    I am having a tough time and searched, but have not found an answer that works.  Last night I copied my iPhoto Library to an external hard drive because when I initially attempted to set up Photos, I got an error that said I needed 88 GB of space for the transfer.  I got the iPhoto Library onto the hard drive and reopened the app and it prepared the library.  It was talking forever, so I went to bed.  This morning, I have this screen...
    There are NO pictures in the actual app.  I went to the external hard drive and see that the Photos Library exists...
    I have tried to hold command and option and restart Photos and I did get a prompt that it was repairing; however, this was unsuccessful.  Please help!  I know the photos are there because when I show package contents, I see them all in my Masters/Old Masters folders.
    Thank you!

    Agree with baltwo, though even if you have saved the install app I wouldn't use it unless its been used to install a known good copy of the OS already.
    In your case, that probably means start fresh:
    Restart the computer, holding down 'command' and 'r'. When the recovery disk window shows, choose 'Reinstall Mac OS X'.

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

  • I can not view ANY videos on Vimeo, I have 'reset' the Ipad, original IOS 5, cleared the history and cookies, I have changed the DNS number to 8.8.8.8, I have worked on this for 2 days and still can't find a fix, HELP!!

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • TS1398 my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help

    my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help

    When you say it "can not scan any wifi network" do you mean it is not detecting Wi-Fi networks?
    Is Wi-Fi turned on in Settings > General > Wi-Fi?
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    Is it just the home network that the device will not connect to? or any network?

  • I can't view any pictures on facebook since last night. FF put some pop-up message about it, but I didn't read it properly because I was on the phone. I just want to see my friends picstures but can't now.

    I am not sure what the Firefox message said last night when I was looking at pictures on facebook. It was something about viewing images. Now I can't view any - except I can see the thumbnails - but not the singular image. I can't seem to find anything in the Firefox settings about this.

    See:
    * [[Images or animations do not show]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • On my photosmart 7520 I can not print any picture larger than 4x6. what can I do

    On my photosmart 7520, which is brand new, I can not print any pictire larger than 4x6. When I place a 5x7 or 8x10 on bottom tray does not pick it up, it picks up from the top tray and it displays wrong paper size. What can I do?

    Hi,
    I recommend that you open your print preferences and select the paper source as the main tray and set the paper size to whatever size it is you want to print. I don'y have a Vista example but I have included a screen shot from Windows 7 of the options window you're after.

  • How can one view the pictures backed on iTunes from iPhone?

    I lost my iPhone sometime back and need to access the contacts and pictures that I had backed up.  I don’t intend to buy another iPhone but I would like to get to access this information.  Is there a program or something that can do this?

    It is not possible for you to retrieve contacts or pictures from iTunes backup without an iPhone.  There is a way to do this though – if you have a friend who has an iPhone, you can restore the information on their iPhone and then transfer it to a computer.  The backed up information will always be there, so just be patient till you can borrow an iPhone or get one.  You should also check if your contacts synced with windows contacts (Windows Address book on Windows XP, Windows Contacts on Windows Vista and 7, Address book on Mac, Microsoft Outlook (not Outlook Express), Google contacts or Yahoo Address book.  Pictures are not meant to be stored in backup and do not sync when your phone is connected.  You may need to import the pictures using a different program when the iPhone is detected as a digital camera.

  • Can not view any Facebook site any ideas?

      My Galaxy S4 will not allow me to view any Facebook site. I have tried using Wi-Fi and data without any luck.
      I have done restarts, virus scans and tried several ways to view a Facebook site. I go to those that I have bookmarked and tried a search for the site  and then try to click into it and still cannot connect. I have also gone to several locations that have Wi-Fi in case it was just my home system.
      I get a notice of a server error. My wife has the same phone bought at the same time and has not had trouble with this issue even for the same Facebook sites. My phone seems more glitchy that my wife's. At times I can't get the keyboard to go off the screen unless I restart the phone.

    It is working again. I was using the internet explorer app to view the Facebook sites.  I do not have a Facebook site so I was not using their app. I downloaded Firefox app and that allows me to view the Facebook sites I visit.
    I do not know why I can not use internet explorer as the settings are the same as my wife's phone and she can view them.
    I tried the battery trick and that did not work and I also cleared the history and cache on ie.

  • TS4062 when i connect my new ipad to my computer and open itunes - it's telling me that the device can not open IPAD because it needs Itunes version 10.5 - but i can't seem to find out or download the newest version of itunes on my ipad.  Any ideas?

    My computer is not reading my new IPAD in ITunes.  It's saying i need itunes, 10.5 or higher - but i can't seem to update my itunes on the IPAD - any ideas?

    10.5 is NOT software for your ipad.  It is the itunes software for your computer.

  • I bought a new camera - Its very nice, but you can not take any pictures

    Thats how I feel about Apple TV.
    I have talked to Apple support a couple of times about
    slideshows no longer work with settings from iPhoto. (Q-movie is NOT an option).
    The apple people tells me they never heard about the problem.
    I bought my ATV just for this option and now it does not work.
    I am really not satisfied

    Yes at one time slideshows from iphoto were supported, then the features in iphoto slideshows were improved and the assumption is that the tv could not play the new features, so the ability to play slideshows made in iphoto was removed. It's clearly not a bug it was an engineering decision.
    You don't have to use imovie, use the export feature in iphoto. There is no problem with sound (whether you choose to use iphoto for your export or indeed opt to make your movies in imovie), I'm not sure why you would think there is.
