Photo Stream on iPhone not downloading all photos? (iOS 5.1)

I have my Photo Stream filled up at 1000 photos. My iPad sees them all. My Mac sees them all. Even my Apple TV sees them all.
But for some reason, my iPhone only shows about 35 photos in my Photo Stream. I've disabled and then enabled photo stream several times. Even rebooted. I did a fresh install of iOS 5.1, and still, its only showing my last 35 photos in Photo Stream.
Is there any way to force an iPhone to re-download all 1000 photos in the Stream?
Thanks!

I fixed this issue myself. Net: iPhoto is lying - the iPhone is telling the truth. All the photos iPhoto said were in my Photo Stream actually were not.
On my Mac, System Preferences -> iCloud, I unchecked Photo Stream, then signed out of iCloud. It asked me whether I wanted it to keep or delete my contacts and other things from the Mac - I told it to delete them.
iPhoto then showed me that the Photo Stream was empty, and asked if I wanted to turn it on. Instead, I logged back into iCloud on the System Preferences panel. Photo Stream was still unchecked, but I went back to iPhoto and now chose the option to turn on Photo Stream there. After a minute, I saw only the one photo I took yesterday (which was all I was seeing on my iPhone before). Nothing else was there. I dragged a bunch of photos from my iPhoto "Photos" library to the Photo Stream, and after a few minutes, they started showing up on my iPhone.

TS3989 PhotoStream not downloading all photos

Hi, my iPad2 (iOS 5.1), located in China, is not downloading all photos on PhotoStream. I have about 430 photos but the iPad2 can only download about 200 then it stopped. The following factors are for your consideration:
1. The iPad2 in question is not low on battery (more than 80%), and is connected to Wifi. The problem has persisted for days now. I know there're 430 photos on the PhotoStream because on my iPad1 and iPhone 4S I can see 430 photos.
2. The iPad2 can successfully upload to PhotoStream photos taken from its camera. In fact, photos taken from its camera would even be downloaded as new photos in PhotoStream, yet still not all photos already on PhotoStream (uploaded by other devices) could be downloaded.
3. I have several other devices participating on PhotoStream with the same Apple ID - iPad1 (iOS 5.01), iPhone 4s (iOS 5.01) and PC (iCloudWindows version 1.1). In fact, the bulk of the photos on PhotoStream now are uploaded from the PC via the iCloud service for Windows. The iPad2 is the only one having trouble downloading all of the photos.
4. I have reset PhotoStream on the iPad2 once already. 10 days ago the PhotoStream download was stuck for 163 photos (over 400 total) for a couple days. So I've reset the PhotoStream and re-enabled. The download started again, but has stopped for a few days now at 220 photos.
5. Just one more background - the iPad2 as I mentioned is located in China. I bought one for my parents so we could use PhotoStream to share photos cross border easily.
Please help!!!

Nothing... I am waiting on a solution too. I have the no "My Photo Stream" so no download location.

Sorry this solution is late but I just got off of the phone with Apple support and this worked.
Open iTunes
Connect your iPhone and keep it connected during this entire process.
In the iTunes menu at the very top (File, Edit, View) choose STORE> Sign in and sign into your iTunes account.
Once this is complete look at the upper right corner of iTunes and you will see an iPhone and Store button, cick STORE. Now you will be in the iTunes store where you see the advertisements of the various albums, songs etc. Look on your upper left of the window for your itunes account name and in the black band next to your iTunes account name, you will see a House icon, then Music, Movies, TV Shows etc.
Make sure the HOUSE icon is selected.
Stay on this screen in iTunes and on the lower RIGHT, you will see an area that says- QUICK LINKS. In that area click - Purchased
After you do this you will be transported to another area of iTunes. Here there will be a menu across the top- Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, Books are the choices.
Choose APPS and you will see the apps that you have purchased. You will also see the apps that didn't download to your phone.
Find the apps that didn't download and click the cloud next to their name. Doing this will download the chosen apps to the computer you are on.
Once you have downloaded the apps in question, in the upper right corner click LIBRARY.
Now you should see the button that says iPhone because your phone is still plugged in. Click the iPhone button and then click SYNC on the lower right to sync your iPhone.
The apps you downloaded will now be on your phone.
Sorry for the long instructions but this is what works.

IOS 8.1 Does Not Download All iCloud Mail/ Keeps Cache?

Hello,
I have setup and enabled an iCloud e-mail account on all of my devices and was successfully able to use the Mail app in Mac OS X Yosemite to copy mail from my Yahoo! inbox to my iCloud inbox. All e-mail copied from Yahoo! Mail appears in the OS X Yosemite Mail app as well as in the iCloud.com site, however, my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5 both running iOS 8.1 does not download all of the mail from iCloud. I have tried the following on both iOS 8.1 devices with no success.
- Disable iCloud mail and re-enable
- Sign completely out of iCloud and sign in again, then reconfigure all iCloud services including mail
The result of both steps is that the incomplete list of e-mail in the iCloud inbox just reappears in the Mail app instead of downloading from iCloud again. It looks like the incomplete list of e-mail is stored on the iOS device and signing out of or disabling iCloud mail just hides it; re-enabling or signing in merely shows it again. This appears to work differently than my Yahoo! Mail configuration where if I sign out of or delete the Yahoo! account and reconfigure, iOS downloads a fresh copy of all e-mail in the inbox and all other folders. Here are my two questions:
- How do I get my iPhone and iPad Air 2 to download ALL e-mail from my iCloud mail account?
- Are my suspicions true? Does iOS actually store a cached copy of iCloud mail on the device when the service is disabled and just "redisplays" it when re-enabled?
Thanks!

I had the same problem. My iCloud it's a mess since the iOS 8.1 update.
Probably your iCloud isn't working too.

My I Pod will not download all content to my laptop. running windows 7 and I Pod ver. 6.1.6.

My I Pod will not download all music contents to my I Tunes on my Lap top when I sync. I have tried auto sync and manual download. i am running Windows 7 and my I Pod is updated to version6.1.6. I have tried to sync on two different lap tops and have deleted and reinstalled I Tunes on both lap tops.
Any suggestions?

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method   Maye you did this by "manual download"
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library so try:
Backing up the iPOd and then restore from that backup
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Try going to the web based site and see if you can set up a temporary folder there. Move anything you don't want to download to that folder.

Just try to remove the recent update that has been pushed out by Microsfot to Outlook 2013 and Office 365 users. You can do this by following given steps:
Step 1: Open your start menu and click visit your Control Panel.
Step 2: Click Programs and Features.
Step 3: Click View Installed updates.
Step 4: Locate either the KB2837618 or KB2837643 and remove them.
Disable the "Show only subcribed folders" option in Outlook.
Step 1: Right click the name of your account with the issue, then click the IMAP folders link.
Step 2: Outlook will open a box with IMAP folders. There is a checkbox that says, "When displaying hierarchy in Outlook, show the subcribed folders." Uncheck that box.
Step 3: Force sending/receiving within Outlook and everything should synchronize up properly.
Changing the root folder path
Visit your Account Settings, then Advanced for the mail account that you are having trouble with. This can be located at one of the following:
Go to Change Account>More Settings>Advanced Tab
File > Account Settings > Account settings > Change... > More Settings... > Advanced
Step 1: In the Folders option, look for "Root Folder Path" and enter "INBOX" (with all caps).

That may be a problem with the VLC plugin. VLC has never worked for me properly on the occasions that I've tried it on Windows and Linux, so I have stop using it. There are usually other plugins or media players available that work better.
What kind of media files are that?
For WMP files you can install the new Windows Media Player plugin you can also try RealPlayer and QuickTime if it is about media that those programs can handle to see if that works better.

2 songs were cut off and not downloaded all the way, what can i do

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Sometimes when I connect my iPhone to my iMac to sync, it does not download all my selected photos to my iPhone

Lately when I connect my iPhone or iPad to my iMac to update files, when I select events and photos to add, iTunes does not import all events or all photos from these events. It tells me that 672 photos were not imported and to check iTunes. (10 Where in iTunes do I check to find out what the problem is in not importing these images? (2) Why is iTunes not importing all selected events from my photos or skipping (not importing) selected photos?

i figured this out through other posts. simply turn your restrictions off and restart your phone. all apps should be open to you.

i HAVE AN iPad iii. iT HAS about 4000 photos on it. I just bought a new PC and the IT people did not copy all the photos from the old computer but they are all on my Ipad.
Is there a way to upload those photographs to ITUNES and have them stored on my computer. Or if I synch, will all those photos vaporize because they are not on my computer.

I had to manually download the new version of itunes.. via tools, it gave me 4 items to download and i did not download all 4 compenants. Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that contains tools so i can redownlaod all of them.

I lost my old iphone and have a new 5s.. i need to sync to itunes. i had to donwload manually via tools but i didnt download all four files. now when i plug my phone into itunes it says there is an error bc i didnt download all the files. so when i go into itunes now and check for updates it says its up to date. the problem is with the phone support file i didnt download.
Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that has the music player update and itunes update bc this is the only place i have seen "tools" to be able to manually update all four files....
***IF i completely uninstall itunes and reinstall will it still have all my songs, photos, apps etc... bc i need to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back

this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me...
