ICloud and photostream

1.  Is there anyway I can share a Photostream with my wife's iPhone? Or for that matter, share my photostream with family who live out of town? 
2.  The iCloud icon on my wife's iphone is "grayed-out" so that when I tap on it, nothing happens.  It has somehow been deslected.  She is set up with iCloud.  Anythoughts?

I did download the control panel and set it to download automatically, however, it has only pushed 106 photos from my photostream to my pc.  I am trying to get the other 800 that are still there.  The settings are set correctly on my phone and pc, but for some reason it started in the middle of the photostream and now won't push the earlier photos to the pc.
Thank you for your help - I really do appreciate it.

  • How can i stop the sign in to icloud and photostream pop up windows

    The pop up windows asking me to sign into iCloud and photostream pop up constantly while im online.  This started to happen after the last update.
    I dont want to turn either of those off because i will lose any shared pictures i have.  Is there a way to stop these from popping up all the time?

    I don't think you have any choice now.  You can always delete the iCloud account after doing so and not use it.
    I'm afraid I'm not sure what else to suggest other than to enter your password.  If you don't know what it is, you'll have to contact Apple support for assistance by calling the Apple account security team for the country you're in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.

  • Some pictures on my iphone 4s are not uploaded to Icloud and Photostream and stay in the camera roll

    After taking pictures with my IPhone 4S the pictures are not uploaded from the camera roll to ICloud and my Ipad.  The pictures do not show up in the the IPhone Photostream after taken.  Any solutions?

    Hello,
    I have experienced a similar issue.
    Normally all photos from iPhone or iPad correctly push to photostream and it works.
    But on a recent travel the photostream pushing seemed "spotty" and some random pictures taken with iPhone were/are  not pushed to photostream. On the destination there was a (slow) wifi connection, might have something to do with it - but even after getting home to my faster wifi connection the remaining photos in my camera roll are still not pushed to photostream from the iPhone.
    The missing photos not being pushed from the iPhone to photostream are random in timeline ("spotty" pushing).
    Any ideas on why this happens?
    I guess after connecting the iPhone to my Mac the entire camera roll will load into iPhoto, and iPhoto on Mac will do the remaining "pushing" to photostream; will have to wait and see.
    But this issue purely is about incomplete pushing from iPhone camera roll to photostream.

    Just rebooted and hooked the phone back up to the mac and iPhoto opened up as usual, with videos available for import. All is well.

  • Problems with iCloud and Photostream

    iCloud is not working on my PC, wont even let me open the control panel.  My photostream is not syncing to my computer. All this started when I did the iOS7.0.4 update. Also wont let me backup my phone. Any suggestions?

    On your PC with Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream.

  • TS3989 I have automatic upload etc. turned on in my iCloud and Photostream but after having just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, none are getting into. My Photostream, either on my iPad, iPhones or Apple TV. Any suggestions?

    I have automatic upload etc.  activated in Photo Stream.  I just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, but nothing is sowing up on my iPhones my iMacs iPad or on Apple TV.  Does anyone have. Any suggestions as to what I can. Do?  I am currently on permahold with. apple Help.
    THANKS!

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • Icloud and existing photo albums

    I updated my ipad 2 and iphone 4 to ios 5, move all my pictures and created different albums.
    After doing that,  I enabled Icloud and photostream and realize that I can't move new pictures to my already existing albums. The only way I can move the pictures is if I create a new album right after enabling photostream.
    If I disable and re-enable photostream, again the same problem, I can't even move the pictures to the album I created (right after the first "enable" of photostream).
    Also, the camera roll album is always full and if I want to delete a picture from there, it will delete it from everywere, when the reason I have different albums is to avoid duplicates.
    I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me if there is a way to fix this.
    Thanks,

    i've got the sami problem...

  • Password Protect Libraries? on Aperture. on iCloud. with PhotoStream?

    Question: How?
    How to password protect photo libraries....
    On Aperture.
    On iCloud
    With PhotoStream.
    (and iPhoto)
    Any knowledge about this?
    Extranous note: I DO read manuals but now got abut 3,333 pages of manuals for varrious programs yet to read and keep getting dizzy, dizzy with it all.
    Extra Extranous comments: I got a pic of myself eating 15 pounds of potatoes and I want to keep it as The Before in my Before and After Diet Manual...but don't want my wife looking at it again and don't want it to suddenly got Photo Streaming and wind up on iCloud and next thing you know it's viral and folks are launging at me on Leno....uknow the tragic consequences that could ensue.

    You can't password protect an Aperture or iPhoto library. iCloud and photostream (really the same thing)  don;t contain libraries they contain individual images in a stream. The stream is protected by your apple id just as your system is protected by your login password.
    If you give access to your account to others they will be able to access whatever you can access.
    You can do some things to the libraries such as encrypting them or else turning on filevault.

  • ICloud backups and Photostream not working

    My iCloud backups do not appear to be happening correctly. When I first started using iOS5, I had no problem. Both my iPad1 and iPhone4S were backing up nicely to iCloud, and Photo Stream was working correctly. I used my usual Apple ID with iCloud, and have never had a Mobile Me account.
    I also have a MacBook Air, which was running Snow Leopard. I then upgraded to Lion. I'm not sure, but it may have been shortly after this that I began to have problems with iCloud (or maybe I am getting my dates mixed up). I enabled Photostream on iPhoto too, shortly after I upgraded.
    On both my iPhone and iPad, when I go into Settings/iCloud/Storage & Backup and check my storage details, it was showing that I had not had not backed up in some time. When I click the "back up now" button (while plugged into power and wifi on), it starts to do a manual backup, and appears to start backing up. A little bit of the blue status bar shows, and it says "estimated time remaining…." but never actually shows a time remaining, and after a while just errors saying "There was a problem completing the backup. Please try again later".
    The odd thing is, when I hook my devices up to my MacBook, and view them in iTunes, on the "summary" tab (I have "backup to iCloud" ticked) and it DOES give a recent last backed up time. There is a disconnect between what iTunes is saying, and what the devices show. I'm really not sure if my data is getting backed up or not to iCloud! As a precaution, every so often I am switching iTunes back to backing the devices to the MacBook, so at least I am maintaining backups there. Once done, I flick back to the "backup to iCloud" setting.
    Through trial and error, I have figured out that the "last backed up to iCloud" time shown in iTunes is a time I have manually tried to do a backup on the iDevice, even though the device itself does not say a backup was completed successfully. If I try to do a "sync" manually via iTunes on the MacBook, it seems to sync and transfer music/photos etc, but the "last backed time" in iTunes does not change.
    Photostream has also stopped working. Although it did not stop working at the same time as the iCloud backups, it seemed to be gradual. It started by not synching all the new photos between devices, then just the occasional photo, and now nothing.
    To fix the problem, I tried deleting iCloud from both my devices, and switching it off on the MacBook, for a day (including deactivating Photostream). When I went to enable it all again on all the devices, in the hope it would properly start backing up, it just reverted to the old state with the previous symptoms.
    I have searched various help forums, but I have not seen anyone else report that iTunes says iCloud backups worked, but on the iOS5 devices is says they are not updating.
    Suggestions? How can I get iCloud working correctly, including Photostream?
    I had plans to subscribe to the iTunes Match service, but I don't want to pay the money if I am going to continue to have synch/backup issues and it causes problems with match.

    I'm havnig a similar problem but just with photos. I have Photostream turned on on both my iPad and iPhone 4S but when I get to a Wifi environment and try to get the photos from my iPhone to upload onto the iPad through iCloud, nothing happens. I have both devices unlocked, I've checked both have Photostream turned on, but nothing. Any ideas?

  • How do I delete photos in the icloud and have them stay gone?

    How do I delete photos in the icloud and have them stay gone!

    The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
    The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

  • How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

    How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.
