My photos on the iPad and not transferring to the iMac

I have an iPad with lots of albums on, I have done a recent back up to the cloud and have photo streaming turned on.
I have just bought a mac and I thought the photos would transfer over from the cloud, but only one of the albums has (album is not the most recent)
I have plenty of spare iCloud storage.
Can anyone suggest what the issue may be?

Have you tried quitting iPhoto, restarting your Mac and resetting your iPad? A fresh start approach, if you will.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Have you tried using Image Capture instead of iPhoto? Connect the iPad and launch Image Capture. That won't solve any problems that you might be having with iPhoto, but it might let you import the photos to the computer for safe keeping and backup purposes.

  • I just purchased a ipad 2 and have not sync it yet.  I have an old pc and would like to move the itunes library account to a newer pc that I have.  Can I move the library to the ipad and sync ipods to the ipad and/or move the library to the new pc?

    But I must point out that leaving the iPhoto Library on the external is worth considering. Your internal drive would be better off without having to carry the photos.
    When you booted with the external connected and you were asked for the library, did you try navigating to the Library in on the external drive?

  • I used my ipad to transfer music to my wife's pc, now I have reconnected to my mac and itunes is not recognsing it - the ipad is not showing in the sidebar

    I used my ipad to transfer music to my wife's pc, now I have reconnected to my mac and itunes is not recognsing it - the ipad is not showing in the sidebar and syncing not happening. I have tried resetting ipad and restarting etc but still no joy. Anyone had a similar experience?

    Take it to the Apple Store for evaluation.
    Try this.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the Sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut Off. To power up hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time (for about 10-15 seconds) until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider), then let go of the buttons.

  • TS1702 I'm not able to update Smurf's Village. Tried most of the things proposed on the net including restarting the iPad and trying syncing with the computer. Had a similar issue with another application. Had to delete and reinstall it, with all history

    I'm not able to update Smurf's Village. Tried most of the things proposed on the net including restarting the iPad and trying syncing with the computer. Had a similar issue with another application. Had to delete and reinstall it, with all history lost.
    Tried following up with the developer's instruction. Didn't help. Developer suggested contacting Apple if their instruction didn't work. Tried the various methods recommended on the Apple site. Same result.

    Telling is that you tried most of the things on the net doesn't tell us exactly what you did try, so we are all still left to guess .....
    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again
    If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.
    If that doesn't work, restart your router and reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • When I facetime the ipad (email address) it calls my phone. The accounts are completely separate. How can I get this to only call the ipad and not my phone as well?

    When I facetime the ipad (email address) it calls my phone. The accounts are completely separate. How can I get this to only call the ipad and not my phone as well?
    It calls both the ipad and iphone when calling the associated email address for the ipad. However, when I call the iphone it does not call the IPAD.
    Thanks for your help

    As long as it's still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy it then yes, you can re-download it for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

    How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
    PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
    If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup

  • Sp L records are coming to the PSA and not updating in the data target

    Special Ledger records are coming to the PSA and not updating in the data target in the month end and the info package is failing - because of that we are doing manual updating from PSA to the data target -
    Can so one can tell the reasons why this is happening? And give the solutions to it?

    Hi Sankar,
    If your Infopackage uses Only PSA and Update subsequently in Data Target on the Processing tab, then you will need to add a process for Read PSA and Update Data Target in your process chain, after the Infopackage load process. Then it will take data from the PSA and load to the data target.
    Hope this helps...

  • While running how do I get my podcast to play one song and move to the next and not skip to the next after a few seconds into the song?

    I recently started running and downloaded the Couch to 5K webcasts, while running how do I get my podcast to play one song in it's entirety and move to the next and not skip to the next after a few seconds into the song?  I beleive it's the motion of the running that is causing it, is there a setting I need to change?

    Hello nowrunning,
    Is the "Shake to Shuffle" option turned on in your iPod's settings?  To check, head to Settings -> Music -> Shake to Shuffle and make sure it is set to Off.

    When plugging in my headset in my iPad, the sound continues to play on the ipad and does not switch to the heeadset. Why? I did not have this problem before.

    If you have used earphones in the past then I assume that you realize it takes a very firm push to insert the headphones into the opening - correct?

  • I feel Passbook should be on new iPad, because even if surfing web, and you have all information with you on the iPad and not have to get purse to look for individual information. It makes sense to provide it for the new iPad. PLEASE!

    I feel that Passbook should be on the new iPad. My reason is when surfing Internet/purchasing all your information could be on the iPad, and you wouldn't have to check your purse or somewhere else for it. It makes sense to include it. PLEASE include in next update soon. Thanks.
