ICloud drive Photo Library not showing in finder

Although I can see my various folders (Keynote, Pages etc) in iCloud Drive in the finder in my Macbook, I can't see my Photo Library, it's there because I can see it in a browser and my iPhone. Very frustrating.
(Yosemite and iOS 8.1)

Your iCloud Photo Library (Beta) is not supposed to show on your iCloud Drive.  You view it in "Photos" on your Mobile devices or on he iCloud webpage.
You will have to wait for the Photos.app on the Macs to be released early next year to be able to see iCloud Photo Library on a Mac. This part is still under developement.

  • HT201737 how do you close a thumb drive that does not show in finder?

    How do you close a thumb drive that does not show in finder?

    What do you mean by "Close?"
    Eject??
    If so, you could use Go to Computer to find it if it is not in the Sidebar or on the Desktop. Ctrl-click or Right-click on the drive and choose Eject <diskname>
    Or, you could set it to show in the SideBar in the Finder Preferences, SideBar tab. Then, it would have an eject icon next to it in the Sidebar.

  • New Photos Library Not Showing up in Media Browser

    Hi, all--
    I have the new Photos Library app, but I cannot select photos from it in other apps (like Twitter) because it doesn't show up the Media Browser that appears in the sidebar. The Photos Library is stored in my Pictures folder, and although I can click on the Pictures folder, the package contents of Photos Library isn't accessible there. Is anyone else experiecing this? I see other posts about this problem for iWeb, but I'm seeing it with EVERY 3rd party app/website. I can't select those photos. Help, please!
    Thanks!

    It's not a bug. It's not an iWeb issue.
    It's progress.
    Everytime something new arrives, the old is left behind.
    But there is a solution.
    iPhoto and the old library are still on your computer.
    Open iPhoto and select the old library.
    After that the images are available again.

  • ICloud Driver folder will not open in Finder on click

    Hi,
    Everything's working great for me, except for one thing:
    1. I open Finder
    2. I click on iCloud Driver from the left pane. Nothing happens.
    To open iCloud Drive I:
    1. Open Finder
    2. Right-click on iCloud Drive and select "Open in New Tab". Only then do I see the contents.
    Is this a known issue?

    Hi Mike,
    I can provide solution if you can tell me the registry value(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\sqlwb.sql.9.0\Shell\Open\Command). I believe there is an extra %1 which is causing this.

    Let me see if I can get my IT guys to temporarily grant me registry access.  As I said above, it's locked down, but maybe if I ask
    reeeeally nicely :-)  I will keep you posted.  Thanks!
    EDIT: The IT gods have smiled on me.  The value for the key above is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\ssms.exe" /dde
    Not sure if that helps, but there you go.  Thanks!

    Hey Mike,
    Actually edit didnot trigger the email :)
    Change that to
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\ssms.exe" %1 /dde
    (add %1 and that should fix this forever)

  • Moved itunes to external hard drive now library not showing up

    I tried to move itunes to an external hard drive to free up space but now I can't get my library to come up. What do I do?

    Hi, BreezerSB2.
    It sounds like you may not have followed the instructions described in this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
    If that's not possible - or you don't want to do so - and the music files are in fact on your external drive, you can add them to your iTunes Library by referring to this article 's Add to Library section.

  • Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

    Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

  • USB External drive not showing in Finder, or on Desktop

    I have two USB external drives from the same manufacturer. One is for regular storage, the second is for Time Machine and movies.
    The first one shows everywhere, on the desktop, in finder and in Disk Utility.
    The second drive shows in Disk Utility only. However, it is functioning fine with Time Machine. So it is mounted. I have tried several repairs, and it reports no fault found. So it is certainly functioning correctly, but a setting or error in the operating system is not allowing it to be viewed in finder, or on the desktop.
    Any suggestions.

    Correction: Title should be Firewire External drive not showing in Finder, or on Desktop.

  • Please can kind person help me with uploading photos, not showing in finder!

    Hello dear Apple users,
    Please can any kindly souls offer advice at this busy time... I am trying to create a last-minute personalised gift for a beloved brother but have not yet succeeded in uploading my photos from this page:
    http://www.bagsoflove.co.uk/estore/design/51?tid=26342844-7e27-4d27-a0ab-b841175 00ac2
    I know it should be easy but when I hit upload and select my "photos" from drop down menu on left, there all my photos except the ones I carefully edited, saved and flagged in iPhoto earlier this evening- I  have checked in iPhoto and they are still there, all flagged etc but not showing in finder. (grr!)
    So I opened menu from iPhoto and clicked "make visible in Finder" option, saved them with distinctive names but they are still not coming up when I search those file names..
    Please what else can I do?

    You never access your photos in iPhoto using the finder - the iPhoto application totally replaces the finder for photos when you use it - you can select the photos in iPhoto and export to a desktop folder (see Exporting From iPhoto for export options) or you use the media browser available in every open/upload/attach window on the  left under media==> photos ==> iPhoto - see How to Access Files in iPhoto for more details

The file name is displayed over the blue rectangle but the photo does not show.

    I have the same problem,all I can see in develop module is a blue rectangle with two crossed white lines..

  • How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility

    How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility?
    Last night i was using my external hard drive, for some reason the folder just closed and i couldn't find it on my desktop.
    After googling solutions, i found it in the disk utilities, i clicked on the 'repair' button many times, but it said the 'error...' message.
    So i ejected it to try again, now when i connect the USB external hard drive it doesn't show up on my desktop or disk utilities.
    I really just want to either repair or recover the data on it because it literally has everything (documents, work files, photos etc) on it,
    I downloaded an application to recover my files but it needs the USB to at least show up.recognise it which mine doesn't.
    I know i should've backed it up on another USB, this definitely teaches me for next time to back up all my files.
    Are the files lost forever or can i recover them by going to a shop or using a software?

    Thank you for responding.
    This might sound stupid since i'm not really knowledgeable with Macs,
    but since all my files were moved from my mac computer to the external hard drive,
    is it possible to recover those files through my Mac - like recovering deleted files?
