Photo stream in Mac and iPhone not in sync

Hi,
I have two iPhones, one iPad 2, and a MBP wilh Lion.  Yesterday I noticed that my two iPhones were showing different counts for photos in photo stream: 1000 vs 525.  I turned photo stream off in all of my iOS devices and deleted all photos from the iPhone.  Now, the two iPhones show the same 207 pictures but my Mac shows 405.   I do not know how to get the count form the iPad but I think that is the same number as in the iPhones: 207.  What is going on?
Thanks

Well, after banging my head on this for a few weeks, I looked at my logs.
PhotoStreamAgent was crashing over and over again.
Looked araound a bit, found nothing.
So, I removed all the PhotoStream related files from ~/Library/Prefereces/com.apple.iLifePhotoStream.*
Please do this at your own risk.  It worked fine for me. I looked at the files before running this and saw nothing I couldn't live without.   Figured, worst case I wiped out iCloud settings, and set them up again (which I've already done anyway trying to resovle this).
Open up a terminal (you should probably stop here if you don't know how to do that, but it's in Applications > Utilities)
cd Library/Preferences
ls com.apple.iLifePhotoStream.*
The last line will show you the files we're about to delete.  You can stop now if you see something important.
Lastly:
rm com.apple.iLifePhotoStream.*
Go turn on Photo Stream in System Preferences and try again in Aperture.  Worked first try for me after nothing else had.

  • How to stop any photo transferring between Mac and iphone

    how to stop any photo transferring between Mac and iphone ?

    This is a possibility. But please be aware using your Mac to emit a WiFi connection is a temporary solution. And it will get a short range unlike an actual WiFi Router. Also you may find it to be unstable at times. The Airport Card in your Mac was not designed to be a full time Router WiFi emitter. But more of a receiver to get the signal and use it for personal use.
    1. Unlock the network on your Mac make it an open network
    2. Go to your iPhone, Settings-Wireless-Tap on blue circle next to network name, Choose Forget network
    3. Now go back, It will rescan and find an open network, Connect, and see if Safari works
    If Safari works, Then you had a Security issue. Try using WEP 128 bit 13 character passkey or WEP 8 Character Passkey.
    Cheers and best of luck

  • Mac and iPhone not coordinating events

    Usually ICal works fine for me, but recently my events have not been iclouding properly, as in I make a new event on my Iphone and it doesn't go onto my computer. Just today I was trying to get all of my events onto both my mac and iphone but when I try and icloud an event off my phone although it goes onto my computer it deletes itself from the phone. Then when I make an event on my computer it doesn't go onto my phone. Some events are just randomly deleted, too.
    Just wondering how anyone else manages to get their iphone and mac synced together properly!
    Thanks

    You're welcome.  iCloud only keeps your photo stream photos in iCloud for 30 days (even though up to 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted).  I assume it's because photo stream is completely free, and doesn't count against your iCloud storage plan, so Apple had to place limits on how much is stored and for how long.  As a result, they don't attempt to make them available on icloud.com.
    If you want to be able to access photo stream photos on the web you have to create a shared photo stream as a public website, as discussed here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99. Then you will be given a link to view them from any computer.

  • TS3989 How do I view my photo stream from ipad and iphone on icloud?

    I have icloud on but it does not show my photos or photo stream when I log into icloud on my PC.

    My photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for your devices to download them.  They are not backed up, only your camera roll photos are backed up.  If all your photo stream photos are older than 30 days, you would not get them back when you signed back into your iCloud account.  Shared photo streams remain in iCloud indefinitely and should reappear on your device when you sign back in.

  • TS2481 Calendar on Mac and iPhone won't sync

    I followed all the many many steps on the support page  and now I've got some events about 3-4 times on my iMac, and some of them have disappeared, and none of them have moved over to my iPhone.  I know the problem is with iCloud, which i don't want to use because it seems to have caused all the problems I am having, but I'll happily use it if it will work!

  • Did Mountain Lion break calendar and note sync between the Mac and iPhone?

    When I was running Lion, my calendars and notes synced properly between my Mac and iPhone (with notes going into Mail.app). After upgrading to Mountain Lion, the notes on my Mac were moved into Notes.app and my calendars appeared to be unharmed. I've recently noticed that neither my calendars nor my notes are syncing between my Mac and iPhone.
    I use iTunes to sync my data (either via USB or WiFi) and have no interest in moving to iCloud. I have tried the suggestion of enabling iCloud sync on my iPhone, then disabling, as well as telling iTunes to overwrite the calendar data on my iPhone. Neither of these approaches has solved my sync problem.

    I found a solution to my problem. Hopefully it helps someone else too.
    I deleted the following file and folder:
         ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache
         ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Sync Changes/
    When I synced my iPhone, I was presented with several sync conflicts to resolve. I resolved them and applied the changes immediately. Now my Mac and iPhone are in sync and I've confirmed that changes are syncing from my Mac to my iPhone (I'll confirm that it works the other direction tomorrow when I can look at my calendar at work).
    This is the thread that helped me:

    Hi, MPiaM.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I would need clarification on if you are experiencing an issue with syncing photos via iTunes or iCloud to provide a better answer.  However, here are a couple troubleshooting articles that cover both scenarios.

  • How come when you delete a photo in photo stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the photo stream (iPhone)?

    If you upload a photo in the 'Photo Stream Uploads' folder (PC), it is automatically imported to iPhone (via Wi-Fi). How come when you delete a photo from the Photo Stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the Photo Stream (iPhone)?? I mean doesn't iCloud automatically update the changes? thanks.

    You cannot delete photos from the photo stream.  You can only log into icloud and in your account, you can delete photo stream and start fresh.  It is rumored that the next upgrade to iOS will allow deletions of single photos from the stream, but not yet.

  • HT201317 When I connected my phone and my iPad not all the photos in my photo stream moved over. Why not and how can I fix it?

    When I connected my iPhone and iPad via iCloud not all photos in my photo stream copied over. Why not and how do I fix it?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Only the last 30 days of photos are kept in photo stream in the cloud for syncing. Devices that have been syncing with photo stream for some time may retain older photographs that newer devices do not receive from photo stream.

    If you manually manage the device the you can remove the content from the PC after you have put it on the device. However this isn't the recommended way. At some point you'll probably need to restore it which involves wiping all the data. If you don't have all this data to hand then you'll have to try to recover it from a now problematic device first. It's much easier to sync with your library - yes you have two copies, but that's not a waste, it is prudent. As long as you have two copies you can afford to lose one knowing you have a backup. In practice I keep a complete backup of my library, in addition to the subsets of it that I can put on my devices.

    cant update apps on my mac or iphone4. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it  . i can download apps and music.  how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

    Bookmarks are not syncing to ONE of my Macs, but showing up on other Mac (work), iPhone 4 and iPad 1. Macs are on Mountain Lion. Tried all of Apple's suggestions - and the one Mac is still not updating/syncing Bookmarks or Reading List. What's going on? Do I have to wait to OS update? It seems lots of peolple were having issues before ML, but I as fine. Since ML, I am having all kinds of issues!

    Yeah, I literally have tried everything except deleting my iCloud account (I'm close, but that would require so many changes that it is way too painful to consider at this point).
    I am still waiting to hear back from Apple Support. Hopefully something can be done, or they can do a reset on their end.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond though, much appreciated!
