IPhoto 9.3.1 Photo Stream Turns off
Why is Photo Stream always turned off when I close iPhoto? This forces me to turn it back on again...anyone have a clue?
Thanks in advance!
Robb
I get the same but not every time I close and reopen iPhoto. You could the following:
1 - make a backup copy of your library if you don't already have one.
2 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
3 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
4 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Photo Stream turns off with restart
Ever since I turned on Photo Stream, I've had this problem where every time I restart my computer, Photo Stream turns off in iPhoto. If I quit iPhoto and re-open it without restarting my computer, Photo Stream keeps running just fine. I only have the issue when I actually shut my computer off. I'm running iPhoto 9.3 and OSX 10.7.4.
I've been doing some research to try and find a solution, and I keep coming up with two tips. The first is to go into Library-->Application Support and delete the iLifeAssetManagement folder. The second is to to into Library-->Preferences and delete the com.apple.iLifePhotoStream files. I've tried both, and so far neither has solved the problem.
Does anyone have any other suggestions about how I could fix this issue?Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.

IPhoto Photo Stream turns off on launch
Every second or third time I open iPhoto and click on the photo stream tab there are no pictures there. I then have to enable photostream (again) and the pictures download.
How can I keep the photo stream enabled so I don't have to repeatedly download my pictures?Are we the only ones who have this annoying problem?
And did you ever hear from anyone at Apple?

Why does iPhoto keep defaulting to Photo Stream being off?
I am running iPhoto '11 (9.2) and frequently it will prompt me to turn Photo Stream on when I have already turned it on. This is frustrating because it means that it has to download all the pictures that I've taken in the past 30 days! Why does it not recognize and continue to recognize that Photo Stream?

IPhoto 9.4.2, photo stream-add subscriber?
Hello
I cannot figure out how to create a list of subscribers to share my Photo Stream pics.
I succeeded in adding photos and have a Photo Stream icon in the Source panel, which shows my chosen photos, but not what? How do I notify someone or add a subscriber?
IPhoto 9.4.2, on Mac Pro with Lion.
Sys Prefs > iCloud, checked Photo Stream
In iPhoto prefs > turned on Photo Streaming.
Dragged some photos from an Event into Photo Streaming icon on left.
After a while, it finished (uploading? syncing?).
Clicked on Photo Streaming and I see the pictures.
Now trying to "Add a Subscriber."
Clicked on Share in lower right corner----pop up menu shows Photo Stream among other options (order prints, Flickr, Facebook, Email)
Clicked on Photo Stream
Window opens saying "all the selected photos are already in your photo stream."
I know that but how do I choose people to share them with??
Went up to Share in iPhoto main menu and Photo Stream is greyed out.
I read whatever I could find, in Apple Help, iPhoto, elsewhere on the web.
Tried to find answers but either the instructions read as though I want to change subscribers, or provide step by step, where one of the steps just is not an option I see of can find.
Anyone, please, unravel this mystery for me? ThanksThank you LarryHN.
While I do have an iPad Mini with v6.1.3, my MBP is only in Lion (and my Mac Pro in Snow Leopard). Oddly, until your post I could not find anything about Mt Lion being a requirement.
I followed the link you provided. More help but also more confusion.
There's this persistent presumption that key steps, detailed-specific steps, are or will be "understood." Like for example, letting someone know I have put a group of photos into Photo Stream, for their viewing. Adding subscribers keeps getting me info on modifying subscribers, not the step-by-step instructions for isolating a set of pictures, putting them into a so-called photo stream, or album, then making that available to them AND letting them know it. This morning I got as far as choosing some pics on my iPad and putting them into Photo Stream (or were they already there?) Then creating a PS or Album from a subset of those pics, giving it a name, choosing a person from my contacts....then what? I click Done. Then what is supposed to happen? Once again, this presumption of knowing or maybe it's a presumption that most people won't care to know how it is working and be done with it, after clicking done.
As a test I did this using one friend, and also using myself (using a email address other than my Apple address.)
I later opened my MBP, tried Mail to see if I got notified (nope) then opened iPhoto and looked to see if it was there. But I can't really tell. What I mean is, I do see pictures when I select Photo Stream, but there are more here than in the test-to-myself PS I set up and (sent?) from my iPad. Is this because the MBP is in Lion, not Mt. Lion? Or because, although I am the same person sending and receiving, I am using two differenrt email addresses (therefore am limited to PS only and not Shared PS?
I don't know. This is just way too murky and non-intuitive. I appreciate your reply but don't want to take up any more of your time. So I suppose I'm just whining and ranting at this point. Thanks anyway. -

Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4. Ive got everything turned on to support the icloud function and my itunes shows syncing, but nothing. Any ideas what Im missing? Thanks A Million!
You can delete them from your phone by opening the album that contains them, tap Edit, tap the photos you want to delete, the tap Delete. You can also import camera roll photos to your computer and delete them after importing as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

How do I get photos in a specific iPhoto Album into my Photo Stream?
How do I get photos in a specific iPhoto album into My Photo Stream so that I can use my Apple TV to show them in a slideshow on my TV?
That is not possible - PhotoStream has no organizational capability - no albums or other organization
With the correct software versions You can import from PS into an iPhoto event on your Mac either automatically (by setting the iPhoto preference to do that) or manually and then you can add the photos ot an iPhoto album and sync to Apple TV
what version of iPhoto do you have? Is OS X 10.7.5 correct for your OS?

How do I create a slide show in iPhoto from an iCloud photo stream

Do you mean from a Shared Stream or My Photo Stream?
In iPhoto on your iPhone, iPad you create slideshow projects by selecting photos and then sharing them as a new slideshow. http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkbc26e276
You can publish your slideshow in iCloud: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2333

How do i save photos in iphoto but not in photo stream
When I take photos with my iphone, it saves a random number to the photo stream. For instance, if I take 5 photos, they all go to the photo stream on my iphone, but on my Mini, one might appear, or more, it is seemingly random. I want to save them all to my hard drive on my Mac mini. Deleting them from photo stream deletes them permanently, from everywhere. Sometimes it saves the random number to an event in iphoto, sometimes not. When it does this, deleting them from the photo stream may or may not delete them from the event. Again, it appears random. I want to save photos, and have access to them, without keeping everything in photo stream. How do I do this?
The problem is that saving seems to be completely random. I have vacation photos that I don't want to lose.They should all be in the Photo Stream. Sometimes it taks a while for the PS to refresh itself. In your iPhoto library set the Photo Stream preferences to
This will automatically import any photo added to the Photo Stream into your iPhoto Library.
If waiting for a while for the PS to refresh itse'f doesn't show all of the photos taken the try the following:
Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.
Rebooting your iPhone can also help.

I can't get photostreaming to stop downloading even tho I deleted all photos and turned off. It is always in downloading mode. It's using my data minutes
Okay, I figured it out.
I would clear the cache while the page was still being viewed in a window, and for some reason that didn't actually clear the cache. So that's the browser's being a good little browser, but it's annoying because it should clear everything.
iWeb also has a problem in that is tells pages to cache forever, so the browsers are only doing what they're told.
Close the window, clear the cache, good to go. -

Iphoto will not enable photo stream
My iPhoto will not enable Photo Stream. All software is up to date and I have the latest version of iPhoto, in fact Photo Stream was working last week on my Mac. Now all I get is the msg "iPhoto cannot enable Photo Stream". Any thoughts ??
Hey dave2468, as you can tell by my original post, this problem surfaced several months ago and out of frustration for lack of an answer to the problem - I called Apple for support. I was fully prepared to spend the $50 bucks to resolve this issue but fortunately didn't have to. My problem did get resolved after about 1 &1/2 hours on the phone and the solution revolved around resetting my password for my account...can't tell you why other than ghost in the machine issue. Yours may be different issue but wanted to let you know how this ultimately got resolved. I have had no further issues relative to this problem since my phone consultation. Best of luck - I know how frustrating these things can be. B.

How Come, after updating to ios 6 iPhoto no longer supports photo streaming? What happened?
You probably just need to re-enable Photo Stream. It's not clear what the difference is, but there is an option to enable Photo Stream (as well as Shared Photo Stream) in both the iCloud Settings and the Photos & Camera Settings.

I have photo stream setup on iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and on 2 new iPhones that have the same AppleID as the MacBook Pro. However only one iPhone will stream photos to iPhoto on the MacBook Pro. All these devices were purchased in the last 2 weeks. What setting is wrong?
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
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.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.
