Icloud not syncing photos

I see this is a problem with other people.  Has Apple had some response to this or this another ignored area of their software.  It's nice to advertise a new piece of software and have people buy your products for that software, but then to not have the software work is a bit of an issue.

I would if I thought it would do any good.  But since no one else has any answer on any other forum that doesn't involve wiping everything off of your device I wondered if it was a known issue.  I shouldn't be surprised by the response I got though, considering it's an Apple forum.  If I had just posted the question you'd have probably chimed in that I should first do a search to see if others have a similar problem.  People who have issues with software typically don't care if the particular software works well for others, we care whether it works well for us. And I say ignored as they have also managed to ignore their email software, which by all accounts is terrible, regardless of the amount of complaints from users.

  • ICloud not syncing photos on Win 8.1 Pro

    Hi,
    iCloud is absolutely unreliable for syncing photos from my iCloud (Photo Stream) to my PC (Win 8.1 Pro).
    It used to be working, then it stopped, then I reinstalled my Windows (clean install), I reinstalled iCloud Control Panel and now it is not working again.
    I know many people have the same issue, but has anyone resolved this?
    This is not the quality I expected from Apple..
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a solution: Dropbox.
    I have been fighting this overcomplicated and poorly constructed disaster for too long.
    In 5 seconds I just uploaded my entire camera roll to my PC via the Dropbox app, 10GB of free storage too. If I use that up then there is Flickr with 1TB.
    Apple is just ghetto rubbish.

  • Icloud not syncing photos HELP

    Since one day my iPad New Gen isnt syncing the photos that I take with my iPhone, I researched information and the configuration of my icloud and my devices is correct. NOTE: I have the folder of PhotoStream but no with the new ones... Can someone help me PLEASE!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.

  • ICloud is not syncing photos

    iCloud is not syncing photos from phone to ipad?  When I login to icloud.com there is no Photo folder?? I read somewhere that you must close camera on iphone for photos to sync, have been doing that, but that's not doing it now. 

    Photo stream photos are uploaded when the camera app is closed, the device is connected to wifi and has at least 20% battery life remaining.  Also, only photos added to the camera roll after enabling photo stream are uploaded, not earlier photos.  If those conditions were met and the photos are still not uploading, try turning photo stream off, then back on.  Before turning it off, if you have any photo stream photos on it that are older than 30 days and are no longer in the camera roll, save them to the camera roll or you will lose them.  (Open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll.)

  • ICloud not syncing when you change default folder

    Hi,
    there seems to be an issue with iCloud not syncing photostream when you choose a different folder to store your pictures. Though if you'd still like to have your photostream pictures in a different folder, use my solution:
    1. Close all apple executables from task manager (ApplePhotStreams.exe, iCloudServices.exe)
    2. Remove C:\Users\<Username>\Pictures\iCloud Photos
    3. Create a symbolic link to the folder you'd like to use:
         Start a command prompt, and use the following command to create a symbolic link:
         mklink "C:\Users\<Username>\Pictures\iCloud Photos" "<newpath>"
         Where <newpath> is the path where you'd like to store your pictures.
    4. Start iCloud and sign out
    5. sign in again and apply settings
    6. Enjoy!

    No, what I am saying is that the ones that have it on by default seem to work properly. The ones that you have to go in and enable the feature do not seem to save to iCloud once that option has been enabled. I've ran into several:
    Don't save to iCloud (Have to go in an toggle the setting)
    Anomaly Warzone HD
    Zombieville USA
    Cut the Rope experiments
    DO save to iCloud (Setting is on by default)
    Bards Tale
    Batman Arkham lockdown
    The Incident
    Infinity Blade

    Hello, have you made sure that you're signed into iTunes and given authorization for your iphone 4 to sync with your computer? The same thing happened to me when I recently installed iTunes 10.5 after formatting my computer.

    itunes will not sync photos to my New iPad, I run all current software. Itunes show 0 photos in all albums and events. Why is this and how do I get iTunes to recognise my photo library?

    Select you device from the left sidebar of iTunes and navigate to the Photos tab at the top. Do you have the Sync Photos With checkbox checked and set to iPhoto?

  • IPad2 not syncing photos or music

    New iPad2 will not sync photos or music

    Hello,
    Take a look at the Apple support article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3274, iPad: Basic troubleshooting.  In particular the section "If iPad doesn't appear in iTunes or you can't sync iPad" might be useful as it leads to a Troubleshooting Assistant.

  • ITunes will not sync Photos with iPad

    iTunes 11.1.5 will not sync photos from iPhoto 9.5.1 to an iPad running IOS 7.1.1....
    The sync will not complete it just spins forever on 'importing photos'....  I have always selected Sync photos from 'iPhoto' and 'Selected albus,s, Events and Faces....   I typically only sync around 20 photos between the two but now iTunes will not add photos to the iPad nor delete photos from the iPad....
    Since these photos were added with iTunes I can not manually delete them from the iPad....
    If I deselect 'Sync Photo from iPhoto' the sync will complete but the photos are not deleted from the iPad....
    I suspect that iTunes may be looking for a previous release of iPhoto (since the photo library was 'upgraded' to iPhoto 9.5.1 so it just seems logical that iTunes may not be recognizing the new and improved iPhoto library??
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    John Jones

    The photos won't get lost.
    You don't sync photos to the computer using iTunes.
    Import them to the computer like you would with any camera.
    Then delete them from the iPad and re-add them using iTunes. This gets them out of the camera roll.
    See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • Will not sync photos

    Hi, I can not sync photos beyond a few, error message says insufficient memory but there is >12G memory for<1G photos

    Elizabeth-
    I assume you have photos on your computer, and want to transfer them to the iPad using iTunes.  There could be a problem with iTunes not getting along with your computer.  Perhaps un-installing and re-installing iTunes would help.
    Sometimes it is hard to tell which memory an error messages is referring to. On the iPad, there are two categories of memory.  The 12G is equivalent to hard drive storage space on the computer.  A small portion of it may be reserved as RAM for the iPad CPU's use in computation.
    To free-up RAM, double-click the iPad's Home button.  A row of recent Apps will appear across the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one until it starts to wiggle.  A red minus sign should appear on each.  Touch the minus sign to stop each App.  This may not help, but won't hurt.
    Another thing that won't hurt to try, is to reboot the iPad's CPU.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  After the iPad restarts, see if there is any improvement.

  • Itunes v12.1 itunes will not sync photos from photoshop 12

    Since I downloaded itunes v12.1, itunes will not sync photos from Photoshop 12 to my iphone 5, 6+ and older Apple TV (with hard Drive). Prior to the itunes software update, all was well.  itunes indicates "0" photos available from Photoshop when there are over 7,000 photos on my desktop. I tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling - no success. Perhaps itunes v13 may fix the problem, meanwhile , any suggestions.

    I link to it in th epost above yours.

    Scroll down to;
    Then click Mac, or whatever one is applicible to you.
    Be warned though. After synced, successfully, with iTunes 11.1, i ended up with over 10GB's of 'Other' data on my iphone. I had to do a factory reset (From iTunes/iPhone/Summary). It's been a pain in the ***, but it all seems fine now. But it has taken me hours. An di now have a headache.
    Also, a factory reset will remove ALL your data, and i mean EVERYTHING! You've spend the rest of the day putting everything back the way you like it, and setting up all your setting again.
    Pain in the ***.

  • Why does iCloud not sync mail rules?

    This seems like a no brainer. When I view my email on my Iphone, I see all my Spam, which would already be dispatched to the Junk box on my desktop, had I looked there first. Why does iCloud not sync my Mail rules, and is there a solution for this?

    It is not Mac to Mac.
    Why not look up iCloud support, it was never offered as anything outside iOS 5 supported devices.
    Maybe if you would stop reading into things what isn't there.
