Photo Stream Pictures Are Disappearing

Since my photo stream is full, when I take a new picture, it goes to photo stream. However, since the photo stream is full, my old pictures dissapear. Can I every retrieve back my old pictures

If they were only in photo stream and have since been deleted you can't get them back.  If they were in the camera roll on your phone when you last backed it up, you could recover them by restoring the backup to a replacement iPhone.
To avoid losing more photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll on your iPad and import them to your computer as explained above.

  • Can't find my photo stream pictures anywhere, my even in "collections"

    I can't find any of my photos from my photo stream. I have very limited space on my phone, so I routinely delete my photos, but I always thought that they would be safe on the photo stream. Now it's gone. All of my photos are gone. I'm left with only the 80 photos I've taken in the past few weeks. I trusted photo stream to hold onto my photos for me but I can't find it anywhere!! I know that Apple changed everything by lumping all of our pictures into collections, but none of my photo stream pictures are there and I've read that they should be! I have no idea where to go to retrieve them. Are they all just gone now??

    Thank you for the reply! Where would I go to find the rest of my photo stream pictures? Is there somewhere online I could go to retrieve them? The only photo albums I have are:
    All photos
    Favorites
    Videos
    Recently Deleted
    And then I have the collections section. My pictures aren't in any of them, and I have no photo stream folder.
    Back when I did have the photo stream folder, it held pictures that I had taken months ago. It was at a 1000 picture limit of course though.

    I do not have the possibility to turn my photo stream on, that is the problem. Check the picture i attached.

  • Is there a way to retrieve pictures deleted from photo stream that are not yet on camera roll?

    Is there any way to retrieve pictures deleted from photo stream that are not yet on camera roll? I used my iPhone for a camera and put pix on iPad through photo stream. But I didn't realize they were not on the iPad camera roll, and deleted them from the phone Photostream. Now they are gone. Any chance to find them in the cloud?

    No, there is no re-cycling bin on the iPad. If you deleted them from the card, and you havn't yet re-used the card, then there may be recovery software that you can get for your computer that might be able to get them back.

  • I upgraded from iPhoto to Photo and my pictures are disappeared ?

    I upgraded from iPhoto to Photo and my pictures are disappeared - why ?

    My question was so long, so I narrowed it down
    I can't open my photos via Photos, and I made sure that they are on my Capsule - so I (think) I have them. But I can't import them to Photo.
    How do I open iphoto Library with Photos?

  • How can I save my photo stream pictures?

    So, Apple in it's infinate wisdom has nearly ruined my honeymoon and I'm at my wits end to save what is left of my digital archive of the trip.  How on earth can I SAVE my photo stream pictures OFF of an iDevice??  I have 210 pictures that I desperately need to save onto my computer and the only place they exist at the moment is inside the photostream.
    Not that it matters, but let me vent... the reason they only exist is in the photo stream is because of Apple's under-prepared servers for iOS5 deployment and a glitch in iTunes that wiped my phone immediately as I plugged it in today (no sync, no confirm, just plug, beep, and then a wiped phone in under 5 seconds).
    I lost all of my phone content, which luckilly I'm an exchange user so the most important stuff is always duplicated off the device.  But my pictures and video from my week long honeymoon were on my phone and while SOME of them did sync to iCloud, not all of them did (still don't know why THAT is - but that's the next mission) and NONE of my videos were in the cloud.  On top of that, no backup has been done by iCloud in over a week even though I have been on wifi and charging several nights on the trip, and all last night once I got home.  No backup.  Wiped phone.  *** Apple.
    Where I stand right now is a photo stream full of pictures that I want to save and cannot seem to get to.  First thought was that since iCloud is a cloud based service I bet I can log into a web site and see all of my content an save it from there.  Nope.  This is Apple so of course that option would make too much sense.  All I can do from the web portal is look at pretty icons and delete my pictures.  I can't even browse them, much less save them.  Again, ***.
    So next on my now restored phone (from a week old backup) I can see my photo stream and a nice little save button exists.  Good, that'll save it to the camera roll and I can copy them off like the other pictures.  Nope.  I select some pictures, click save, and nothing happens.  I select 20 or so pictures, click save, and 2 pictures show up in my camera roll??  Again, *** Apple.
    So there is also an option to add the pictures to a new album.  Ok, here we go.  Select all 210 pictures, add to a new album, and yes it makes a new album.  Now to save that album off to my PC... NOPE.  The album is nowhere to be found in the file system (where the camera roll pictures live).
    Ok, so at least I can now back up my phone so I know that these pictures won't just fall off the iCloud in 30 days.  Backup goes fine... and is 30M in size.  Son of a...!  There is no way that backup includes all those pictures.
    I installed the Windows iCloud manager - that sounds like it would let you MANAGE your iCloud content, but nope.  You can manage your payment info, and have it stream NEW photos to you, but you cannot get to your existing photos!  One last time Apple... W T F.
    How can I retrieve photos that are in my photo stream?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Yes you can do that, select the rectangle with the arrow in it, in the top right hand corner of your photo stream screen and select the pictures you wish to save to your camera roll then tap the save button at the bottom of the screen and choose camera roll from the options that appear.

  • Photo Sharing in ios 6 shows all my photo streaming pictures

    I decided to test the photo sharing feature in ios 6. I created an album and sent it to myself and was horrified to see that not only could I access the test album, but ALL my photo streamed pictures were available for viewing. I created another album, sent it to a gmail email account I have and had other same issue.  Next, I created a third album and send the "public sharing" link to myself: it didn't show the third album but rather the previously created second photo stream album, even though I had already deleted it.
    I never had this problem with MobileMe.
    ANy suggestions?

    I just did the same upgrade with my 3GS.  I am having a similar problem.  My contacts are on the phone now, but my music and apps are not.  When I try to restore the back up this is the message I get:  itunes could not restore the iphone because a session could not be started.
    I see my my music and apps in my itunes library, but if I try to autofill it to my phone I get this message:  itunes cannot add any songs to the iphone because no songs in library can be copied to the iphone.
    Can you help?

  • Time Capsule gathering Photo Stream pictures?

    Is there a way to make Time Capsule gathering Photo Stream pictures, instead using Mac or PC for this task?
    Managing (a fast growing amount of) pictures on the iPhone (/iPad) is a big "pain in the ***" today...
    Here is what I am looking for as a perfect solution for this challenge:
    1. You can configure Time Capsule in a way that it gets automatically all iPhone (/iPad) pictures via Photo Stream, and stores them permanently (like a Mac does today via iPhoto)
    2. You can mark selected pictures on the iphone as "store permanent on the iPhone" (favorites like childrens pictures etc.)
    3. You can select a time frame  when pictures are deleted automatically on the iPhone (of course deleted only when they had been stored permanently on Time Capsule)
    4. You can select how many pictures should be stored (via Photo Stream) on your iPhone
    5. You can access ALL pictures on Time Capsule directly from the iPhone. (The overview about pictures would work with thumbnails to reduce required storage for the preview; selected pictures can then be downloaded. For the download you can select a reduced resolution of the picture to save download capacity)
    6. Option to backup pictures on an external harddisk and/or online storage

    I'm not sure where to move the photos--in a seperate photo file or directly into iphoto.
    This is really a question for the iPhoto support forum, but since I have done this, it might help to know that the iPhoto Library is stored in your Pictures folder on the Mac.
    Click the Finder icon at the far left of the dock at the bottom the screen to locate the Pictures folder.
    When you open iPhoto for the first time, you may need to "point" iPhoto at the iPhoto Library by holding down the option key as you open iPhoto.
    Please post in the iPhoto support area on specific iPhoto questions.

  • Does photo stream pictures take space on my computer

    does photo stream pictures take space on my computer

    Only if you have iPhoto setup to automatically import the Photo Stream photos.
    Otherwise they are just on the iCloud server and will be removed after 30 days.

  • Can't find my camera roll (only photo stream) pictures in iCloud.  Should there be an icon there?  Do I need to install another icon?

    Can't find my camera roll (only photo stream) pictures in iCloud.  Should there be an icon there?  Do I need to install another icon?

    I'm not totally sure I understand what you are asking or expecting to see.
    You will only find your Photo Stream photos in iCloud, not the camera roll photos. What I mean is that any older photos that you have in the camera roll will not appear in the photo stream. Only photos that you have taken with the iPad, after you turned photo stream on, appear in the photo stream.
    You can create a shared photo stream album with older camera roll photos, but the camera roll itself is not in iCloud.com.
    Where are you looking in iCloud to see these photos?

  • IPhone 4 w/iOS6 installed, went to an iphone 5 & now I cannot see my Photo Stream Pictures

    Does anybody know how to correct this? I want to get my pictures from the icloud back on to my phone from Photostream. I have a ton of pictures i like to retrieve.
    Thanks!

    They may not be in your photo stream any more.  Photo stream only keeps photos for 30 days.  After that, they are removed from photo stream but not from a device that already has the photo stream photos in its photo stream album.  However, when you connect a new device to your photo stream they are no longer available to download.

  • How do I get back my photo stream pictures which I accidently deleted

    how do I get back my photo stream pictures which I accidently deleted? I cant remember whether I have back up or not.

    If they aren't in Photos>Photo Stream, then they are deleted and cannot be recovered. Try restoring from a recent backup that has those photos.

    hi
    i have successfully uploaded some photos from my Iphone to my pc
    but find that the photo stream pictures were not included
    is there a way to upload this batch ?

    You have iCloud control panel installed on your PC and you're signed in? If so, sign out, restart the machine, then sign back in.

  • Many of my recently uploaded photos are horizontal when they should be vertical, and vice versa.  I've corrected all these on my laptop but in my iPad and i Phone photo streams they are still mixed.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Add the corrected ones to your PS - PS contains only what was added to it - changes made are not applied to the PS - you have to re add the updated photos
