IPhoto and photo stream albums

Please help me. I am trying to move pictures from my photo stream album into an existing event.

OT, i tried to highlight and drag as suggested here but it doesnt work.
o manually import photo stream photos to your iPhoto library:
In iPhoto, drag one or more photos from Photo Stream view to Photos in the Source list.
I think the only way I can do it is to export them to a file on my hard drive, create an event and click and drag into that event folder. Then merge it to the event I want them in. Seems to be a lot of steps? What am I missing?

  • Duplication Issues with Photo Sync via iTunes/iPhoto and Photo Stream/iCloud (Detailed Scenario Given)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'd like to share an issue I am having with photo syncing between my iDevices.
    Here is how I USED to sync my Photos between my iDevices (no issues with photo duplication)
    Note: In this scenario, I use iTunes and iPhoto on my Mac. iCloud and Photo stream have NOT been activated in this case.
    1. Take photos via iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. After a month or so, I will connect my iPhone to my Mac.
    3. Import my Photos in iPhoto and arrange  Events and Photos in monthly sections and add some of them in a separate Albums (ex. Written Notes Photos) for easy access.
    4. Once the import is done, iPhoto prompts an option to delete photos in my Camera Roll which I do as I like to start a fresh month with empty Camera Roll in my iPhone.
    5. In order to access the Photos I have imported in iPhoto in my iPhone, I go to iTunes and sync all my photos to my iPhone. This syncs my events, photos, faces, albums as they have been arranged in iPhoto in my Mac. (I cant delete them in my iPhone once they are synced. I have to delete in my iPhoto and sync again to have similar setup in my iPhone which isn't a problem).
    NOW I decided I don't want to manually go through all this process and went on to enable the Photo Stream ON in my iPhone and iPhoto with iCloud.
    THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM ENSUES.
    1. I  Take photos with my iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
    2. This automatically syncs with my Mac due to Photo Stream which a really convenient.
    3. It syncs automatically to Photo Stream, Events, Photos, Faces section in the iPhoto and I put put some of them (notes) in a separate album.
    THE PROBLEM:
    The Photos does not show up in the Album, Events and Photos Folder in my iPhone. They are only shown in Camera Roll. So I thought to sync using iTunes so the new Photos will be arranged in their appropriate folder like it used to with my prior process of syncing. This worked, HOWEVER the photos in my iPhone started showing DUPLICATES! Apparently, one comes from Photo Stream (which, if I delete on my phone also deletes in all my iDevices) and the other duplicate is from the iTunes sync (this sets up my photos as arranged in iPhoto which is what i WANT to happen as Photo Stream does not sync them accordingly).
    SOLUTION I AM IN SEARCH FOR:
    I want to be able to take photos with my iPhone that automatically syncs in iCloud AND iPHOTO AS ARRANGED IN MY MAC (Albums, Events etc) WITHOUT PROBLEM OF PHOTO DUPLICATES.

    Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing  the iPod Photo Cache.

  • Where is camera roll and photo stream albums in iOS8?

    Where is camera poll and photo steam albums in iOS8?

    I have checked and all new pictures from my iPhone are in my iPAD in "recently added" folder. But when down loading the pictures to my iMac from my iPhone, iPhoto asked me if I wanted delete them and I say yes to clear memory of the iPhone... and all those photos are gone and nothing in "recently added" or so!!!!!!.
    How can I get them in my iPhone again?... they are in my iPad in "recently added" but in the iPhone are gone completely.

  • IPhoto and Photo Stream.

    If you delete a picture from iPhoto, does the photo automatically get deleted from Photostream?

    No, unless you delete it from the Photo Stream section of iPhoto.  It will look like this when you Control (right)-click on the photo in the Photo Stream section:

  • Where are "camera roll" and "photo stream" albums gone?

    After upgrading to iOS 8, photo stream and camera roll are disappeared.
    Therefore, I cannot understand anymore whether I posses a certain photo on my iPhone, on my iPad or on one of the iDevices at home.
    I cannot really explain the reason of this choice. Perhaps only a subtle sadistic attitude could.
    So, please, bring them back!
    Or - at least - bring back a simple distinction between photos shot on the device and others on the stream.

    Just make sure you're in moments rather than in years. And it will only take you to the maps if you click on the location names (when you're in collections) so click on the photos instead. That's all I can tell you to do since they've went ahead and taken off "Camera Roll"..

  • HT4906 Why would a pro photographer use the latest iPhoto and Photo Stream?

    I don't use Aperture.  The upgrade to the latest and greatest iPhoto is a reasonable cost, but I have heard complaints about it all.
      Thank you!
    Diane

    No and No.
    iPhoto is not good with Referenced libraries, and so will hardly scale to the volume of images a pro is likely to have. It also has comsumer level tools for processing. 
    As for complaints: do you mean at the App store etc? If so those reviews aren't worth the paper they're not written on.
    The problems with them are manifold: for a start, happy people are less likely to review, unhappy happy are much more inclined to. That's why we don't have thousands and thousands of posts on this forum from all the people who have no problems saying "look I have no problems". Unhappy people get cross and are more likely to express that anger in negative reviews.
    Then what about the reviewer? What is his or her knowledge, experience and skill level? No doubt they are having problems, and real ones, but how do you know if their issues are problems with the app, their own inexperience, third party conflicts and so on. I've seen people on here claim the fact that iPhoto won't edit video is a bug. I've seen hundreds and hundreds of posts from folks on here who are certain they've found a bug, only for their glitch to be resolved. No review is worth anything unless you know something of the reviewer, his or her knowledge and experience.
    So frankly, I never bother with those reviews on any such stores, not just iPhoto on the Mac App Store.

  • Missing Photo Stream Album in iPhoto

    Hi!
    I'm hoping someone can help me. My Photo Stream album seems to be missing from my iPhoto. It use to be there but one day, it just disappeared. I already unchecked and checked under Preference to see if it would appear but it didn't work.Please help!
    Thanks~

    Add any photo stream photos in iPhoto that are not in photo stream on your phone to a shared stream and invite yourself as a subscriber, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.4/#pht5f6df5f0.

  • IPhoto doesn't recognize all Photo Stream albums.

    When I take a photo with my iPhone, the photo goes to my photo stream.  I then send it to my TV Photo Stream album.  The TV Photo Stream album is displayed on my Apple TV.  My issue comes when I sync my iPhone with iPhoto.  iPhoto doesn't display all my photo stream albums, i.e."TV Photo Stream"  How do I get iPhoto to display all of my photo Stream albums?  I only use one account, so I know that I am signed in under the right ID.  I am not sure were to post this inquire, should it go to Photo Stream or iPhoto?  I am not sure what App has the issue, or is it just me?  Thank you,

    iPhoto: 9.5.1 (902.17)
    MacOS X version 10.9.4
    Upon opening iPhoto, it asks me what photo library I want to use. At the left hand bottom there is a box saying (translated by me from Norwegian):
    "iPhoto cannot start without a photo library. Select a library from the list, find another library on the machine, or create a new library to import files into. The library you chose now, will be used automatically next time you open iPhoto."
    Then there is a box with no libraries listed, and underneath I've got the options of creating a new library or simply clicking "other library".
    First time this happened I created a new library and thus there are 2 libraries: iPhoto-library and iPhoto-library_2 to chose from when clicking "Other library" There is also a non-selectable (grey) "Photo Booth-library" in the same list, which is in the path user/Photos/iPhoto-library or .../iPhoto-library2. But when clicking either of these the "open" button just keeps flashing indefinitely. Upon trying to open iPhoto-library or iPhoto-library_2 from Finder, it just opens iPhoto and prompting me to chose library like before...
    The only thing that I changed (I think) is that I installed PSE 12.

  • HT201077 When trying to select a new shared photo stream album, my iPhoto directs me to the Trash album.  Not sure what to do.

    My iPhoto is redirecting me to the Trash album instead of opening a friend's shared iCloud (Photo Stream) album.  Not sure what to do.

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.

  • HT4906 iPhoto 09, iCloud and Photo Stream

    I have iPhoto 09, preinstalled via Snow Leopard.  I did the software update as instructed so that I could get the iCloud and Photo Stream.  However, I cannot get the check box available in iCloud to add Photo Stream.  Please help. Thank you.

    iPhoto 11 is required for PhotoStream.

  • Photo stream album isn't deleted and still accessible

    I have shared a new photo through the new photo stream option at iOS6, at the begining I made it public in order to test, then I have deleted all members and disabled the public access but the picture is still public and even accessible even if I deleted the entire shared folder?? Any help?

    I figured it out! If you go to where your photo stream albums are, click the arrow next to the album (you can't just click on the name of the album), and there will be options for it, including deleting the entire album! Woo-hoo!

  • HT1338 I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

    I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

    Enable PhotoStream in iCloud first, then add the photos to PhotoStream in iCloud. Of course, you will need PhotoStream also enabled on your other devices also in order to view them.

  • My photo stream is setup on my iPhone 5 and my ipad 2. I take picture on my phone and I can't find them on my ipad? I read where it said they go to your photo stream album...but where is that at?

    This may be a silly question but I can't find my pictures. I have photo stream setup on my iPad 2 and my iPhone 5. I also have iCloud on and I setup my email address. I even tried turning photo stream off and back on. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

    Hi uscammie,
    The My Photo Stream album does not appear when iCloud Photo Library is enabled. If this feature is enabled on your iPhone, it's storing your iPhone's photos in the cloud.
