Missing pics on photo stream on new device

I just upgraded to iPhone 5s and 1000 pics are missing from my photo stream. I'm only getting some from my iPad and none from my iPhone 4. Help!!

  • Workaround--How I put old photo stream on new device

    So I bought a new iPhone and turned on PhotoStream and was pretty upset that only the last 30 days worth of photo stream photos made it back to my device...  I did a lot of reading and found out that nothing was set-up wrong, it was just the way photo stream works.
    Here's the skinny, for any device only the last 30 days worth of photo stream will be transfered to said device upon activation of PhotoStream--for those of us that want to have their old photo stream photo's on their new device there is a work around.
    First, open iPhoto and select "iCloud" from the menu bar on the left, this will show you your photo stream. What was curious to me was that my iPhoto on my Mac Mini had 376 photos, as did my trusty old iPad, but not my brand new iPhone 5S, it only had 100 photos... This is actually how PhotoStream works though.
    So to fix the disparity, and to keep from KEEPING duplicates, you need to go back to the first photo in your PhotoStream on your computer, for our purposes we'll call this photo 1 in your stream, and then highlight through the latest photo that is NOT on your new device, for me this was photo 276.
    Next set-up a new folder on your desktop, and copy the missing photo's to the new folder.
    Now, wait for them to copy to the desktop folder, this should take a few minutes,,,
    Next, go back to iPhoto and delete the selected photos from your photo stream, a warning comes up and says this action cannot be undone, hit ok.
    Then select all of the photos from the new folder, and drag them back to iPhoto, if it asks you about duplicates, hit import.
    Now, wait while your photo stream re-builds ( this will likely only work for 1,000 photos or less )
    Once the photo stream is correct across your devices, for me it was my Mac Mini, my iPad and my iPhone, go back to iPhoto and select the "Last Import" tab from the menu bar on the left, select all of the photos (they are dupicates) and delete them from there.
    You will be left without duplicates and a rebuilt photo stream across your devices.

  • Need help - my pics in photo stream on iphone do not all dowload to photo stream folder on my pc

    have photo stream pics on my iphone, when my iphone is connect to my PC, some of the photos do not download onto my photo stream folder on my PC - need help with this

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
        •    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.

  • Aperture, Photo Stream and new iPhone

    My wife just got her first iPhone but was disappointed when she looked at Photo Stream and only about 85 shots showed - I guess the ones that were sent to the iCloud in the past 30 days. She wanted some of the older ones.
    So - figuring I would be a good hubby - I went into Aperture, where there are about 550 shots showing in Photo Stream, going back to last year. But when I selected some of the older ones and said "share in Photo Stream" they would not appear on her phone. I am assuming this is because Aperture still sees them as "being in Photo Stream" and therefore sees no reason to "add them to Photo Stream". How do I get around this? Do I have to delete them from the Aperture copy of Photo Stream (they are not on either iPhone nor my iPad Mini) and then re-share them from the actual Aperture library?
    Thanks for any assistance.

    First of all you need to be using the same AppleID on her iPhone and the Mac with Aperture in order to see the same "My Photo Stream". (I'm assuming you are or you wouldn't see any of the photos. But just in case...)
    There is more than one Photo Stream. Your main Photo Stream is called "My Photo Stream". This is only visible to Macs and iOS devices signed into the same AppleID. You can have other "Shared Photo Streams" that you can share with other AppleIDs or even publicly using a URL.
    To share a photo to Photo Stream, you select it in the browser and choose (right-click) Share->Photo Stream and a dialog will appear. Within this dialog there's a popup menu that determines where to share it. You can select "New Photo Stream" which will create a new Shared Photo Stream. Or if you've already created some Shared Photo Streams, they will appear in the menu and you can add to them.
    There's an additional entry in that menu called "My Photo Stream". This doesn't appear if the photo you are sharing is already in the My Photo Stream location in Aperture. So you cannot add a photo in My Photo Stream to My Photo Stream if that is where it is already located in Aperture. If you select a photo from inside a project in Aperture you will then see the "My Photo Stream" entry in the Share->Photo Stream dialog.
    Solutions for you:
    To get a photo back into My Photo Stream for other devices to see, go to the project where the photo lives and Share->Photo Stream and select "My Photo Stream". By default, Aperture imports all Photo Stream photos into a monthly project automatically. If you disabled this in preferences, you could manually import it using drag and drop from My Photo Stream to a project in the library sidebar.
    To get a photo into a Shared Photo Stream, select it and choose Share->Photo Stream and select New Photo Stream from the popup menu. Give it a name and description. If your wife is using the same AppleID, it will automatically show up on her iPhone in the Photos->Photo Stream app. If she is using her own AppleID, you can share it with her by adding her AppleID in the share dialog.

    Photostream is not a substitute for importing your photos to your computer.

    ow many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album.

  • Can I disable photo stream from select devices that are connected to my iTunes account?

    Hello,  I was wondering is there any way to do this because I have three iPads connected onto my account, one is in another country and one my parents own, but for my personal one, I would like to disable this feature so my pictures don't get uploaded. My parents like to see the photos being taken by family in another country and I would like those two devices connected only. 

    You can turn off photo stream on one device without effecting the others.  If you want to keep the photo stream photos on the device you are going to turn it off on, you will need to same them to your camera roll before doing so.  To do this open the my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Photos and turn off My Photo Stream.  This will delete the photo stream photos from this device, but not the others (and you already saved copies of these photos to your camera roll so they will still be on your device).
    The other two iPads that are signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled will still be sharing the same photo stream but you will no longer see it, and your photos will no longer be added to the stream.  They can still share photos with you by adding them to a shared stream and inviting you as a subscriber (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). 

  • My iPad has deleted 700 photos off the photo stream on that device.  The pictures are still on my Mac iPhoto in the photo stream.  How do I get them to reappear on the iPad?

    My iPad has deleted 700 photos off the photo stream on that device.  The pictures are still on my Mac iPhoto in the photo stream.  How do I get them to reappear on the iPad?

    When did this deletion happen?  Which version of iOS 8 do you have on your iPad? Depending on your settings you may not see My Photo Stream on the iPad any longer.  With iOS 8 "My Photo Stream" will only show on the iPad, if you did not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta).

  • I recently lost iphone4s and it was in the cloud had pics on it and was not found i have a new device and cant seem to get those photos to this new device

    I cant seem to the get the previous pictures off of the other device, shouldn't they be able to transfer throught the cloud

    If you had Photo Stream enabled on the 4S that was lost, turning on Photo Stream with your iCloud account settings on your new iOS device should download all photos currently available in your iCloud Photo Stream.

  • Photo streaming with new ATV

    I haven't found any discussion on this point. My question is regarding streaming photos with the new ATV. Will my photos all have to be in iPhoto for this to work? Currently I synch photos and they are stored in folders in the pictures directory and not in iPhoto.

    Jim, as the device hasn't been released yet it's difficult to be certain about anything. However photo selection is done in iTunes not on the device itself, and as iTunes 10 still has the same photo selection options as before I really don't expect anything to change.
    So yes I expect you can still use your photos from a folder, only you will now have to stream them rather than sync them, unless I'm missing something.

  • Load more pics from Fotostream on a new device .... ?!?

    Hi schwerzi,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like Photostream only brought back the photos within the last 30 days.

    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
    Any other pictures that you want on your iPhone will have to be transferred from your computer.  Your post doesn't indicate what type of computer you are working with.  Here is some information on how to sync photos with a Mac:

  • If I 'Buy More Storage,' can I have more pics in Photo Stream?

    Right now, I have all of my pics and videos that are in my iPhoto (7000+) in my MobileMe Gallery so I can access them on my iPhone.  Photo Stream says it can only store 1000 pics but If I buy more storage, will I be able to store all 7000+ pics and videos in Photo Stream?
    I have also noticed my videos arn't showing up in Photo Stream so I'm assuming it only 'Streams' photos?
    If Photo Stream will always stay at 1000 pics no matter how much extra space I buy, does iCloud have a Gallery feature like MobileMe has and I'm just not seeing it?
    TL;DR - How do I store more than 1000 photos in iCloud/Photo Stream so I can access from my iPhone?

    From what I read after clicking the link to the macword article above, photo stream will only allow an iOS device to view 1000 photos.  It didn't touch on photo stream after more storage space is purchased but If you remember where you got your info from, that would help out. 
    If you're not talking about photo stream, where would I store the photos in iCloud that my iOS device can access them?
