Photo Stream and transferring photos..

How do I transfer photos from photo stream onto a new IPad?

Hi,
Once you do what randers4 said, go into the photos app on the ipad and then the photostream section. Then tap the photo you want. Then tap the action button (arrow pointing right) in the top right, and the tap "save to camera roll" from the pop up menu. This will save the pic to the ipad.
Hope this helps.

  • Can someone explain me the difference between iCloud Photo Sharing, My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Library?

    This is very confusing. Can someone explain the difference between these 3 options in Photos app.

    Your iPhoto Library is located in your /Home/Pictures/ folder and contains all the photos you have put into iPhoto. iCloud Photo Library is the library of photos you have stored in iCloud.

    If you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup you can restore to that.

  • How to hide duplicate photos that origins from the photo stream and imported photos?

    Hi,
    I are using my camera both with an IPad (through SD-card reader) and directly to my iMac.
    I want to keep the full photo archive on the iMac.
    Now the problem, that I encounter, is that if I use the iPad to look at the photos, those photos will be transfered to the photo-stream.
    Then later when I import all my photos from the camera to the i Mac, those photos that I happened to import to the iPad will show up as duplicate in iPhoto.
    Of course I only want one copy of a photo regardless if they arrive from the photo-stream or through a direct import to my iMac.
    Is there a way to fix this problem or is it simply a bug?
    I think it would be rather easy for the iPhoto software to detect duplicates and hide them.

    You can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
    iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
    Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: i photo has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
    If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but the only duplicate finder app that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates was PhotoSweeper.  None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have diffferent file names.
    iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates.  IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

  • Shared photo streams not transferring photos

    My shared photo stream was working fine, and then suddenly it wouldn't receive any photos from other users, and wouldn't send them my uploaded pictures? How do i get it to work again? I also got an email that someone subscribed but it never showed up on my phone as subscribed, just invited. I feel like it just needs to refresh or something. Any tips would be appreciated!

    I have had the same problem - Shared Photo Streams (evidently) do not update dynamically. There is also no button to force an update in the photo app either.
    On your iDevice by going into Settings > Photos & Camera and switching off "Shared Photo Streams".  Go into your Photo app and check that they have been removed.
    Now go back into the same Settings sub-menu and re-enable "Shared Photo Streams".  Back in the Photo app, you will see the shared stream update with the correct photos.
    I have the exact same problem with any shared photo streams I create on my iPhone - they do not appear on my iPad unless I do the above.  The same goes for iPhoto/Aperture on my Mac.

  • What is the difference between "Photo Stream" and "My Photo Stream"?

    I have to free up space, do I need both Photo Streams?

    With My Photo Stream, when you take a photo on one device, it automatically appears on all of your other devices.
    Photo Stream is simply a storage place for photos associated with your iDevice and is not shared automatically with all your other devices.
    Sorry, but the two links were supposed to be different.

  • What is the difference between 'my photo stream' and 'iCloud photo library'

    Both features seem to sync your pictures with all your apple devices, so i don't really see the difference. Would be really grateful if someone could explain.

    I realize no one is twisting my arm to use anything. But that doesn't stop me from being disappointed about iOS's photo management capabilities compared to what I was used to in Windows Phone.
    I already have unlimited OneDrive storage per my Office 365 account so that's not an issue. I just assumed that iCloud would be a more elegant photo syncing solution since it's built into the OS so that was the path I wanted to pursue. However now that I have a better understanding of the iCloud solution, it's clear that I'll stick with the OneDrive app for iOS to automatically back up my photos there instead of iCloud.
    Not trying to be snarky and I do appreciate the info and links provided - those definitely helped.

  • IOS 8: my photo stream and camera roll got messed up

    I installed IOS 8 this morning and have not been able to see my photos as they were in IOS 7 since. Currently I can see 128 photos in my "collections" tab for the year 2014 dating back to August 31st. These same photos appear in my "recently added" section though they aren't in any order they're jumbled around!
    What I've tried/things to know
    Taking the advice from another thread I restarted my iPhone 5s while my photo stream in iCloud settings on and off again.
    Before restarting I had 0 photos in my photos app. After following the advice I watched as 128 photos appeared in the recently added and collections tab.
    While I had IOS 7 I was able to see many "years" in the photos not just 2014. I also had 1000 photos in my photo stream and stuff in the camera roll
    I called Apple's help line and customer service said to see the rest of my photos I would have to download them off my computer where I have them backed up
    I'm wondering:
    How can I see more than 128 photos (from the past) on my iPhone? It seems like a regression in technology if I used to be able to see 1000.
    Are my photos in the "recently added" section supposed to be in a random order? It's hard to view them this way.
    Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer!

    Currently I can see 128 photos in my "collections" tab for the year 2014 dating back to August 31st.
    This are probably the photos from My Photo Stream ,that are currently stored in iCloud. iCloud will keep the the photos added during the last month, and then they may be removed to make space for newer photos. Your iPhone may be storing up to 1000 photos, but when you reset the Photo Stream, these will be deleted. When you activate Photo Stream again, you will now see what is currently in iCloud, and that will be now the photos from September, see:   iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting
    How can I see more than 128 photos (from the past) on my iPhone? It seems like a regression in technology if I used to be able to see 1000.
    Have these 1000 photos been taken on your iPhone or synced from your Mac, or transferred by Photo Stream? If they have been synced, you need to sync again with your Mac, and if it has been the Photo Stream, upload them again, because they are  no longer in iCloud.
    Did you by any chance enable the iCloud PhotoLibrary in the Photos&Camera settings, if it is available on your device?  If yes, that would explain why your synced photos have been removed. If not, don't enable t, or you will no longer be able to sync the photos with iTunes.

  • HT201317 Differences of Camera Roll, Photo Stream and Photo Library on iPhone?

    I use my iPhoto exclusively as my camera at hand and that means I have tons of photos. What is the difference between Cameroll, Photo Stream and Photo Library?  It seems that my Photo Stream has images that can be deleted ( a trash bucket icon) whereas the tech support and my local Mac store said the Photo Stream images are the ones that will be sent to iCloud and should not have the bucket.  Whereas my Photo Library is not deletable? Whats is this all about and how can I make it right so I may manage my images correctly?

    Camera Roll, all the picture you have taken with your iPhone. They are include in the iPhone Backup but should be transfered to your iPhoto Library on the computer for a better back up. Just like in the old days with a film camera, the is like you iPhones roll of film.
    Photo Stream is iCloud's way of sharing your photos between your devices. It is not permanent storage for photo's limited to 1000 photos and can be deleted automatically in 30 days. It is a handy way to veiw photos on an Apple TV and other iOS devices or a quick and simple way to transfer them into iPhoto on your computer with out having to connect your iPhone to the computer. These photos are not backed up other than being visible on all your devices.
    The Photo Library contains all the photos you synced from your computer. They are not in any part a part of iCloud or it's back ups. Since these photos come from your computer they should be backed up using it's backup routine. These photos should be managed using iTunes to add and remove them.
    Take a picture with your iPhone, the new photo will end up in Camera Roll and Photo Stream. Copy that photo to your iPhoto Library on the Mac either by connecting your iPhone or select the photo in Photo Stream in iPhoto and it will get copied back to your iPhone in it's Photo Library. Once in the Library and a more stable backup routine you are able to detele it from the Camera Roll to clean it up. The Photo Stream copy could be deleted or leave it there for viewing on other devices that may not have access to your iPhoto Library. I suspect we may be able to share Photostream.

  • What is the difference between the photo library and the photo stream?

    What is the difference between the photo library and the photo stream on the I phone?

    Photo Library stores photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

  • I currently have an iPhone 5, 16gb. I Do Not want to Loose any photos or albums by deleting them from my phone and not backing them up correctly. My iCloud backup is only storing my "Photo Stream" and I can not locate them in iTunes after I sync/Back up.

    I currently have an iPhone 5, 16gb. My storage is almost full on my phone. There are only 80 mg available. I am new to icloud and also have always had trouble navigating around iTunes. (Even after endlessly reading through support and help topics as well as calling)   My concern is about Not Losing any of my photos if I delete them from my phone. I have to delete a large portion of my camera roll as well as the Album Folders I have created. Although it would be great if there was a way to just keep my albums still. I have already backed them up to an external hard-drive, my computer and a geek stick. I'm not trying to be too paranoid about these photos, but, they are all of my 3 children. There are over 4000 pictures stored on my phone. Some photos go back as far as 2009.   Can you offer any information about backing up my Camera Roll, not just "Photo Stream", and albums I've created On my phone? I read that it's good to back photos up on both iTunes as well as icloud. I even purchased extra icloud storage to back them all up.   I do regularly back up/sync, my phone to my computers.   However, I cannot even locate where they are stored on iTunes, let alone look at them. And as far as my iCloud backup, it only stores the new pictures from "Photo Stream".   Please offer any advice you may have. I do not use up a lot of storage on my phone other than Photos and Contacts (it's a work phone).   I would definitely be able to sleep better knowing my children can one day see these pictures of themselves. I appreciate your time. Thank you,

    First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
    Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
    Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
    What computer do you have?

  • Photo Stream and MobileMe in iPhoto: I don't get it!

    Hi
    Photo Stream is on for iPhoto on my iMac, iPhone 4, iPad and iPod Touch.
    I'm somewhat confused about how to handle this feature - aside from the basic understanding that it syncs photos I take, say, on my iPhone, to all other devices without the need to manually sync.
    Could someone please confirm / suggest answers to the following;
    1) photos I take on my iPhone are shown in my camera roll and under a separate photo stream roll.  I understand that photo stream on iOS devices holds the last 1000 images taken (unless you delete some following iOS 5.1).  Correct?
    2) my iPhoto library on my iMac stores 100% of the photo stream photos thereby negating the need to manually sync my iPhone (which I use to take photos) with iMac. Correct again?
    3) Under 'Events' on iPhoto (iMac) it seems to create a new 'event' every month (and christens it, say, as 'March 2012 photo stream' for example) which holds that months images taken.
    a) the folders appear in the top left hand corner of the 'Events' page which I don't like as all other events are shown in chronological order (i.e. the latest 'event' being in the bottom right corner of the page). Can I do anything about this, as in set it so that the photo stream folders create themselves at the bottom of the screen after the previous last event?
    b) These monthly 'events' are just that; events that have happened within that last month which could comprise of several different events.  I categorise by actual event rather than everything that has happened within a particular time frame.  This therefore immediately conflicts with photo stream.  I presume I am perhaps meant to select certain 'events' within the month's photo stream and then create a new 'event' from that but I don't know how to do this?  Could anyone advise how / what they do?
    4) I had a MobileMe account which expired last year.  Instead of resurrecting the email address for my iCloud account I chose a slightly different one.  This seems to pose a problem as under 'Albums' I have several MobileMe albums which generate a pop-up box asking me to log in.  As my MobileMe account is expired, the password prompt is not accepted.  I therefore can't share my photos as I previously did.  Is there a work-around?
    Thanks!

    1. Yes.
    2. Yes.
    3. a: View Menu -> Sort Events
    3. b Flag the photos you want to move and go Events -> Create Event from Flagged Photos
    Regards

  • HT4847 Photo stream and Camera Roll

    Is there a way to delete photos from the photo stream without deleting all the photos OR is there a way to send photos from photo stream to my camera roll?

    Deleting a photo from your photo stream album will delete it from your photo stream and all devices connected to your photo stream.  However, you can save photo stream photos to your camera roll first by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tapping the photos, tapping Share, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.

  • If I delete photos from my iPhone photos and photo stream, and they are not in the 'Photo Stream' folder on my PC, do they go to the Recycle Bin on my PC, or disappear altogether?

    Hi,
    Sorry if this has been covered before.
    I deleted some photos from both 'Photos' and 'Photo Stream' using my iPhone. They are not in my 'Photo Stream' folder on my PC, but do they go to the Recycle Bin or just disappear altogehter?
    Thanks.

    I am afraid not.
    Photo Stream is a sync tool and not a backup solution.
    If you change the Photo Stream on one device it pushes those changes to all devices.
