IPhoto (and AppleTV) shows different iCloud contents

I have already posed a problem relating to iPhoto's use of the PhotoStream in iCloud at https://discussions.apple.com/message/23761310#23761310 and this is a sort of extension to that.
I was looking at the photos in my PhotoStream on AppleTV today and I noticed that there were a few very old photos there (up to 10 months old, in fact). I checked with the photos shown for iCloud on my MacBook Air and these older photos were not included there. Then I saw that there were also photos that are not included under iCloud on my iPad. In fact, on each "machine" (AppleTV, MacBook Air, iPad) the PhotoStream was different. (I didn't check my iMac, but I think that matched the iCloud on the MacBook Pro).
I assume this is a problem, or am I not understanding the PhotoStream incorrectly?
(iPhoto '11 version 9.5)

Hi David Neale1!
This may seem elementary, but you may need to make sure that you are signed in to the same iCloud account across all of your devices. This article will also include some further troubleshooting help for you:
iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
If you prefer to have only the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices, and delete the older photos:
If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (on a device using iOS 6, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream). Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
Repeat these steps for each device.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • Mac, iPad and iPhone show different iCloud Drive content

    I'm getting mad about iCloud drive.
    For hours I try to get all my devices in sync. But they all show different content. In Finder I can see only 4 app folders containing the documents (actually pages, keynote, numbers and pdfexpert). Browsing the iCloud drive on the iPad for example using the pages app I can also see a GoodReader folder and some more. Some of them are empty folders (maybe empty folders are hidden on mac by default?) but some of them contain folders and files which obviously won't download to my Mac.
    There are also some folders related to apps I removed from all my devices. It's ok if these app's iCloud folders stay in the cloud if they contain any documents but they stay there even if they are empty and there seems to be no way to remove these folders manually (even the web interface of iCloud greys out the trash when such a folder is selected).
    When I use OS X Preferences to remove some old app's iCloud content I can do this for some of them but then (all of a sudden - can be after two of ten removals) the list on the left side shows only "Backups" (or sometimes "Backups" and an unspecific "Documents") and you have to close the Preferences and reopen it a little later to see the complete list again. And showing the app icons seems to be a problem too (including the iPad / iPhone preferences -> iCloud) - some of them are shown, for some of them there are only placeholders.
    Am I doing it wrong or are these common problems?

    Same problem here – specifically, the CONTENTS of "iCloud Drive" are different when accessed:
    A) in the Finder on Yosemite
    B) on the web at iCloud.com
    C) on an iOS device
    The MAJOR problem for me is that my Goodreader folder only shows up on the iOS device, making it impossible for me to access my Goodreader files. This is a huge issue for me as my workflow depends on having access to those files.
    In general, however, it's ridiculous that you can copy data to iCloud Drive on your iOS device and then you cannot read that data anywhere else.

  • HT204414 How to import both iPhoto and Aperture library to iCloud Photo Library (Photos app)

    Hi all,
    Based on the article here (Designate a System Photo Library in Photos - Apple Support) has anyone tried to bring both an iPhoto and Aperture library into iCloud Photo Library so that both libraries are available as one in iCloud and form the one Photos app library rather than being seen as separate libraries. I don't want the two separated as I have 200GB's of space in iCloud which is plenty to hold the two's collective space of about 40GB's.
    It seems as though the procedure is pretty simple.
    First of all set one of your libraries as the System Photo Library, this will happen naturally with setting up Photos app for the first time. I chose iPhoto as the original library.
    Let this library upload all it's photo's to iCloud over a few minutes, hours, days etc.
    When finished, enter your other library by closing Photos app and reopening while holding down the Option key (usually Alt). In this case I now opened the Aperture library that it had found.
    Under Preferences > iCloud set this library as the System Photo Library and in turn it will have the ability to upload to iCloud.
    When it's finished I suppose you will have both iPhoto AND Aperture pictures in the one iCloud Photo Library.
    At least I hope the above makes sense.
    Anybody already tried this with good / bad results, let us know here.

    found it here  - 'If you designate a new library as the System Photo Library and then turn on iCloud Photo Library, the photos and videos in the new library will merge with those already in your iCloud Photo Library. If you want to keep the contents of your photo libraries separate, don’t turn on iCloud Photo Library for more than one library in Photos.'
    That bit seems clear. You can merge photos from different libraries by making them 'designated' first  .
    BUT  this means that Photos app only shows you library A , or library B, depending on which one you have opened , but Icloud library contains photos from Both library A and library B .
    is this correct ?
    and if so, does it not get a but confusing ?!?

  • Software inventory report and PC show different information

    Hi,
    The scenario is the following:
    SCCM 2012 R2.
    Clients with windows 8.
    The report "Software registered in Add Remove Programs on a specific computer" and "Programs and Features" show different information.
    Programs and features screenshot(ordered by name):
    Report screenshot (ordered by name):
    The question is:
    Is the above normal behavior?
    if not
    How to get in the report "Software registered in Add Remove Programs on a specific computer" all of the software listed in "Programs and Features"?
    Thanks in advance!

    Take a look at that device in Resource Explorer.  Notice that on a 64-bit device there is an 'Installed Applications' class and and 'Installed Applications (64)' class.  This data comes from the registry, and on a 64-bit operating system there
    are actually two separate 'Add/Remove Programs' lists that are aggregated in the OS user interface.
    If in Resource Explorer you see all of the software you expect to see, but not in the report, it is likely because the report is only looking at the 'Installed Applications' class and and not 'Installed Applications (64)' class.
    If you enable the 'Installed Software' class (either by going into the client settings or the AI node), you will notice that the 'Installed Software' class is a combined version of both the 32-bit and 64-bit applications.  This is much easier to report
    off of.
    I hope that helps,

  • IPhoto and Aperture crash, different computers same, have rebuilt

    I have a newer model iMac with lots of extra memory. Hardware shouldn't be an issue, and my drives all check out as fine.  All formatted correctly.  But after working in iPhoto for about 10 minutes (just renaming things, not even editing), it will crash, and on reload there will be grayed out events, sometimes with pictures in them that I can duplicate so it fixes everything and sometimes just empty, and photos are missing permanently.   I am on a UPS, and I have current versions of all programs, most likely no conflicting software, no add ons.  (I only use apple software and Diablo.)
    I have tried rebuild, repair, permissions, etc. several times.  I have tried running the library off a different drive, and on a different computer with a different user.  Same problem. I tried the same thing with Iphoto Library Manager.  It rebuilt fine, but then crashed after use.
    I bought aperture thinking that might solve the issue, but it crashes too (far less often, like every hour or so instead of every 10 minutes) BUT even when not crashing it takes about 30 seconds of beachball just to rename a photo.
    I bought a jpeg checker program to see if there were issues, and it found 10 or so corrupted photos.  Not sure how to deal with this as you aren't supposed to modify the library directly in Finder, and I couldn't find the photos in iPhoto (same names as many other photos so not sure which is corrupt).
    ANY SUGGESTIONS? 
    iPhoto had no problems about 6 months ago, but have been having serious problems last two months.  Hadn't used it in between.
    My library is very large (59,000 photos).

    Next time it crashes post the crash log on here.

  • Mac and Windows showing different hard drive space remaining?

    Hello Guys,
    I am using my 1tb hard drive with mac and windows and while checking the space remaining, my mac says roughly 600gb left and my windows comp. says about 500gb left. I am just wondering which one of the storage remaining statements is correct and why they both show different numbers (by 100gb)? If it helps, this also happens to my 16gb flash drive. mac says 10 gb left, and windows says less space left (dont remember actual number, but was roughly 6-8).
    Just asking becuase I want to know why such a big difference in size remaining. Could it have to do with the way each OS sees what defines the harddrive as full?
    if it matters, my hdd format is MS-DOS (FAT32).
    Thanks a lot,
    krm1897

    haha its been 2 years. And no, i didn't figure it out, but i speculate it may have to do how Mac OSX and Windows reads the FAT file system (my tb hdd was FAT formatted so i could use it on both OS) and calculates remaining space.
    That may be right, or it may be completely wrong lol

  • ODS and Infocube showing different results

    Hi,
    I loaded same data to Infocube and ODS but they are both showing different result in BEX.
    ODS
    ODS report is showing summarised values e.g
    vendor               order value                   invoice value        date
    00001                    20                               20                 01.01.2007
    Infocube
    result is showing not summarised values
    vendor               order value                   invoice value        date
    00001                    20                                 0                      0
                                  0                                20                  01.01.2007
    I would like to make the infocube result same as the ODS because I am remodelling so that we start reporting from Infocube rather than ODS.
    thanks

    Hi,
    this is the scenario
    currently we are reporting from ODS object which fetch data from 3 ODSes. now I am asked to remodel so that we can report from infocube not ODS.
    steps I have taken so far.
    - created new infocube
    - created 3 update rules ( same Update rules that gives the reporting ODS data).
    my target is to make sure that the current ODS  report is the same as the infocube report but so far the report is not consistent
    I compared the data in the ODS and infocube and they are exactly the same but the report is showing differently

    Hi All,

    But when trying to check where all the index is used using v$access:
    select * from v$access where object='MSISDN_IDX';
    no rows selected

    If I run the following query on a 9.2.0.6 database, no index is listed:

    It seems that index is not taken into account by v$access ?

  • Count and Sum show different in Summary tab

    Hello friends,
    Webi 4 version
    I have a webi dcument with 4 report tabs. Summary, Expense,Revenue and Forecasting.
    I have a SUM value in Expense tab and Revenue tab. I also have Count value in Forecasing.When I copy these SUM and Count values to Summary tab, they show different values than those in other tabs.
    Please help me to resolve this
    Thanks
    Renpal

    Hi Renpal,
    Even if we write the aggregate values in to a variable and if you copy that variable in Summary tab it may not give the same result.For Example.
    If count of Sales orders in Detail tab is showing as 500 and in Summary tab it may show as 489. This is because in Detail tab there might be some cells which are "#" or Not assigned. so due to granularity it will count each and every cell, incase of summary all # or Not Assigned are calculated as 1.
    Can you check wrt the above example where exactly the data is not matching.
    Regards,

  • Can't Find Movies and TV Shows From iCloud in 11.1.1

    Before the recent update to iTunes 11.1.1 I had undownloaded the movies and tv shows that I purchased in iTunes on my account, under the premises that I could retrieve them via iCloud (I tried this and it worked). After the update to 11.1.1 iTunes no longer shows any of the movies or TV Shows that I had purchased and and it shows the value of the movie/tv show when I go to the itunes store in an attempt to redownload those that were purchased. My account details show my past purchases and the movies and tv shows are there, but the ghost files that were supposed to represent the movies and tv shows I undownloaded are not there. Maybe I am not finding where they are, but I would like to be able to view/download them so I can put them on my iPod.
    I also recently bought a new iPod and it has all of the movies and tv shows that I purchased available on it, but not downloaded to it (I can watch them from my iPod). Can someone explain to me how this works and why my purchases are not showing up in my iTunes library on my Macbook Pro? I am logged in on the account that I purchased everything with.

    iTunes prefs > Store.
    Tick Show iTunes in the cloud Purchases.

  • Mozilla and IE show different applications referencing the same URL

    Hi, I have a very strange problem.
    I deployed a web app, using Sun App Server 9, directly from a directory of the server. Then I made some changes and redeployed the application. But IE still showing me the app before the changes, and Mozilla shows me the application after the changes.

    I solved this problem,
    The two browsers showed the same jsp's, but different non jsp files, such as js, and css. I only had to refresh the page.
