IPad not posting to shared album

I've been sharing photos on various albums for nearly a year with no problems.
Suddenly it has stopped working properly.
When I share a photo from my iPad, I cannot see it on my iPhone shared album and no one else can see it either on that album.
If I share the same photo, using my iPhone, I can see it on my iPad album and others can see it too.
I've checked my settings and all toggles are set to green.
I've rebooted my iPad.
Any advice on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How are you posting to Facebook?
As a test select one photo and click on the facebook icon in the toolbar and see how it goes
Since you tell us absolutely nothing except that it does not work it is impossible to be definitive about an answer
If you are using the iPhoto FaceBook feature (and there are at least two other ways that you could be "uploading to FaceBook) then selecting a photo(s) and clicking on the Fackbook icon will create a Facebook album under Facebook in the source pane. you can add photos to this album and sync them with FaceBook by dragging them to it and (if sync is set to manual) clicking on the sync icon to the right of the album name
If you are doing a large album it may take a while to sync and show up on FaceBook - do not quit iPhoto until the sync is comp[lete

ICloud not posting to shared albums

I have used the iCloud shared album feature for quite some time and recently when I try at add photos from my iPhone to a shared album they do not seem to get posted. I click the "+" at the bottom of the album and it lets me select the photos. I then click "Done" at the top right and it brings up the "Post" message box. I click "Post", which normally then starts the posting of the photos in the album, but they do not post. I have tried different shared albums, different numbers of photos and nothing seems to work.

I just ran a Consolidate Originals (Move) on the library, and that seemed to help. Aperture was able to publish new photos to albums, but, and this seems odd, in the FB Add Photos dialog box (in Safari). photos I have added to my library over the last few days do not show up in the dialog box [item #8 above].

Email sent from ipad not posted in Thunderbird "Sent" file

My iPad and desktop [Thunderbird 3.1.7] sync fine on inbox. But when I send from either, the other does not post the mail in the "Sent" box.

Thunderbird [desktop] is POP3 which is forwarded to gmail's IMAP. Am I right that Gmail will forward mails sent from the iPad back to T'bird's POP3?

I can not access a shared album via my iPhone.

I created and shared a photo album from my iMac. I shared the album with myself and several family members. Some can access the album and for some it says "This album is no longer shared". I did a test and sent myself the album invitation. I am able to open the album through the email on my iMac. However, when I click on subscribe via my iPhone, it says the album is no longer available. The album is available - so that's not the issue. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Julie2020,
Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the invitation link for your shared album sometimes does not let you or others view the album. I am sure your family wants to see your photos, and I can offer some troubleshooting steps.
If you've already accepted the invitation on your Mac, first check the Photos app on your iPhone to see if the album automatically appears in the "Shared" section, as mentioned in the iCloud Photo Sharing overview.
If so, next make sure that the album is shared with your family members' Apple IDs, and try re-sending an invitation to the ones who can't view the album:
In the Photos app, tap Shared at the bottom of the screen, then tap Sharing at the top of the screen.
Tap the shared album that has the people you want to invite again, then tap People.
Tap the person you want to invite again, then tap Resend Invitation.
You can also complete these steps on your iMac by following the steps at this link:

Deleting shared albums on one device

Hi,
I currently have a shared album with a friend with around 2,000 photos. Due to space limitations, I want to turn off iCloud Photo Sharing on my iPhone which has said it will delete the album. This is fine for me but the album is also present on my Macbook Pro too and I was wondering if removing the album from my iPhone will affect it on my Macbook, as I don't want to lose the photos completely!
Thanks,
Elliot

Elliot,
has the album been created on your iPhone or your Mac?
Signing out of iCloud on a device should not delete the shared album from iCloud, only from the device, but as a precaution -
before you delete the shared album on your iPhone, import the photos from the Shared Stream to an event in iPhoto on your Mac.

I upgraded to the new photos app on my mac and don't see my shared albums

I do not see my shared albums on the new Photos app for iMacs. Where can you find them as my shared tab just says start sharing but doesn't display the previous shared albums I create on the the old iPhoto app.

Did you reboot the router too?

When I updated to iOS 8.3 I lost all shared photo albums on my iPad Air. Other devises which I shared to still have access to photo albums but my iPad does not, therefore I can no longer add or delete to shared albums. I can create new shared albums.

Hello JimS19,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:

Turned on sharing in iPhoto on my iMac. My MacBook sees all the photos but not all events or albums appear. I have many albums in several folders. Any suggestions?

Hvaing the same problem on my iPad since iTunes and ios5 upgrade - hoping for some updates from Apple to resolve problem - research has shown we are not alone!

Search for shared library is impossible, as far as I know. Searches supported - are local and internet.

Why can't I download images from a shared Album on my iPad?

Does not make much sense to me to build this app around the iPad and give it sharing capabilities but not be able to download from shared albums directly to the iPad.

Yes I am running the latest iOS version and the latest version of the Revel app. Camera roll access is enabled. Have either of you clicked on the link to a shared Album. There is not a save to camera roll option. I guess I have not made that clear enough.
Let's say I share an album. I tweet the share link to you. When you click that link, you go to Revel, and are able to view that album. The arrow that is in the top right hand corner where you would normally go to "save to camera roll" only has four options. "Tweet link, mail link, copy link, and open in Safari".
Ok, maybe if I open in safari I can save image. No, not allowed, and before you ask, allow downloading IS on. Again, nothing there to allow to save to camera roll.
Now if I get on my computer, and open the same link in the browser, I can download to my hearts content. I just can not do it on the iPad.

Why will my iPhone and iPad not share photos even though they are connected to icloud and photo sharing

MY IPhone and IPad will not share photos even though I have ICloud and Photo sharing on in both

I can not transfer my photo albums from my Ipad to my computer(Microsoft windows). I have spent some time arranging these albums into some order with each having it's own name.but when i transfer it to my computer the photo's are out of order

We have sorted our photo's into albums with each having their own headings on our Ipad. We have now downloaded these to our computer (Microsoft).The only problem is they did not save in the album order or have any reference to the name of the album. I was wondering if there is away to download our photo's by album from the ipad to a Microsoft computer or even to an extermal hard drive.

First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have?

Shared albums not shown in Photos for Mac

I upgraded my iPhoto library to Photos yesterday and the main photo content migrated fine. I have two OS X devices - a MacBook Pro and a Mac Mini.
On my MacBook Pro, if I enable the sidebar in Photos, I see:
Photos
Shared
Activity
<Other shared albums - both my own and from another iCloud user>
Albums<Various Albums>
On my Mac Mini, I only see:
Photos
Albums<Various Albums>
So Photos on the Mac Mini is not picking up on existing shared albums. If I go to View | Shared it prompts me to "Start Sharing" (as if I haven't done this before). If I click Start Sharing and then create a test album the sharing dialog just vanishes after I select and email address to share with.
Anybody else seeing this? Any ideas?

Ok. I followed another suggestion and tried restarting the computer. It seemed to bring up the libraries. At first, I saw no pictures from the shared photos as they reported zero photos when they came up. However, leaving it open for a while seemed to bring back more and more of the libraries, and that was only after restarting the computer a 2nd time. I did get almost all my shared photos back, but each time it seems to stop and not bring all the photos back. I'll try restarting another time as it seems to be the big thing here.
The syncing activity in Yosemite seems to have some internal limit, where it stops attempting to grab photos from the stream and/or share, and then Photos only tries looking again after a computer restart, not a restart of the application.

HT201077 Can only some subscribers to an iCloud Photo Sharing album post?

Seems like iCloud Photo Sharing is missing some key features. Or clarity.
I've created an iCloud Photo Sharing album, to share baby photos with family and friends.
I want to my wife to also be able to upload photos to this album, but not everyone else.
Can an iCloud Photo Sharing Album have 2 administrators?Or can we have individual subscriber settings to specify who gets to upload and who doesn't?
Do all subscribers see who the other subscribers are? Family dynamics dictate that some members should NOT see each other (or their comments), but I don't want to have to create an album for each of those people).
Do email (non-iOS) folks get an email notifications of newly uploaded photos? (families = many generations, some of which aren't iOS compatible) What's the fix?
Thanks!

Hi there Anthony Sbarro,
You may find the information in the article below helpful. If you delete the photos, they will only delete from the photostream.
iCloud: Shared Photo Streams FAQ
How do I delete photos from a shared stream?
If you are the owner of a shared stream, you can delete photos from the stream in the same way you delete any other photos from your iOS device, Mac, or Windows PC. The photos will be automatically deleted from the stream on all your devices and the devices of anyone subscribed to the stream. Any photos that were previously saved or downloaded from the shared stream to another location, such as the Camera Roll, will not be deleted from that location. Learn more about deleting shared photos.

Facebook videos are still working for me in the Facebook App (using iOS 7.0.6).

Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
