Photo stream via apple tv

can anyone help?  I want to look at selected photos through my Apple TV and create a slide show.  I have a step by step manual on how do do this.  I followed the steps after deciding to set this up via the computer app and home sharing method.  Itunes is up to date, and open and on same network as my Apple tv but for some reason my library will not load.
iI then decided to switch my photo stream on, on my iPhone 5 and see if I could stream the photos i want, this has not worked either I get a message that there is no activity and a 0 shows next to my photo stream on the iCloud app on my Apple tv.
I am extremely fed up now as I have wasted so much time trying to sort this out.  Is my apple TV box broken or is it just a load of rubbish and does not do as Apple advertise it to do. 
HAs has anyone else experienced the same problem?

Have you deleted these photos from your camera roll or from the photo stream album. You need to delete them from the photo stream album for them to disappear from the Apple TV. However if you have opted to use the new iCloud photos on your mobile device it's all a bit complicated during the transition period (indeed some go so far as to describe it as a mess )
iCloud photos and photo stream are different things. If you are using iCloud photos, new photos will be added to iCloud photos which behind the scenes will also be added to photo stream, however when you delete photos from iCloud photos they aren't automatically deleted from photo stream. But you can do this from your Apple TV.
You could be encountering home sharing issues for a number of reasons.

  • Photo Stream (via iCloud) is no longer working on PC -- w/o system changes

    Photo Stream (via iCloud) worked great on my Windows PC a week ago.  Suddenly it's stopped entirely.  When I attempt to open it, I get an error message that says that "Photo Stream is not enabled" and that I should go to the iCloud Control Panel.  When I go to the Control Panel to initiate the change, I can put a check mark in the box to activate it, but it will not retain the change when I hit apply/save.  It also disables Windows Explorer when I do this.
    I don't believe this is an IOS6 issue since it was working fine for a period of time after I put IOS6 on both my iPhone and iPad devices.  I've also not made any changes to the Windows laptop involved. 
    Is anyone else having this problem.  Any suggestions on how to resolve it?  

    After upgrading to iOS 8.1, upgrading to the latest iTunes and re-installing iCloud for Windows, Photo Stream is working again!

  • Photo stream on Apple TV

    Trying to view Photo Stream on Apple TV. It says there are no photos in this album. But I have photos on my iPhone and iMac in photo stream. Running Apple tv. Version 5.2

    For me, whenever I setup Photo Stream it only loads the most recent photos and then thereafter.
    Seems odd that AppleTV only captures the most current and photos as I've taken them or saved in Camera Roll most recently.

  • Photo Stream for Apple TV- HELP

    I've updated absolutley everything and I can't sign in to photo stream on apple tv.
    It asks for account name and password. Im guessing thats my sign in details for icloud.com ??? So I tried that and it just keeps saying username or password incorrect???
    However I can see my photos in iphoto in my photo stream all good. I'm set up on my mac on icloud settings as well (The same account as icloud.com) SO EVERYTHING SHOULD WORK??????

    Thank you.  I had a hunch that might be the case.  Recent letter to McWorld just superficially said  he created a folder with photos and added music.  No details.

  • HT201317 View shared photo streams on Apple TV

    I have an appletv but cannot see Shared Photo Streams that I am subscribed to. Is there a setting in the Apple TV itself or in the photo stream sharing that must be enabled in order to view the shared photos? How are they supposed to show up?

    On this page
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/photo-stream.html
    it says
    Make your photos a big deal with Apple TV.
    With Photo Stream and Apple TV, you can view your recent photos and Shared Photo Streams on your HDTV for some truly entertaining reality television.2 And the Photo Streams your friends and family share with you appear on your Apple TV automatically, so you can check out their latest pictures, view comments, and even “like” photos with a click of your Apple TV remote.
    So unless the marketing team jumped ahead of the Apple TV dev team, I think it is supposed to be supported.

  • HT201317 How do I include all photos in photo stream on Apple TV?

    I can only see photo stream photos as of march 19, but I have them from a year ago.  How do I get them to photo stream on my Apple TV?  They are on my iPad under photo stream

    iCloud only keeps photos in your photo stream for 30 days, but they will remain on your iPad (up to 1000 photos) until you delete them.  I believe Apple TV will only display the photos that are still in your photo stream, not photos earlier than 30 days ago.
    If the older photos are on your iPad, you could always open them on your iPad and use AirPlay to display them on your Apple TV.

  • Troubleshooting Photo Stream on Apple TV

    I've created a Photo Stream in I-Photo on a Mac Book Pro.  I've turned on "File Sharing" in I-Tunes and have selected "Photo Stream" (under column heading "Events") under "Choose Photos to Share".  When I try to view on Apple TV only the first photo of 67 in my "Photo Steam" appear.  Can you tell me how to get all photos to appear?  (Note: The entire "Photo Stream" appears on my I-Pad).

    OK.  Got it now.  Internet menu is on "Apple TV".  Once all Photo Stream Photos appeared there, I was able to also set the Screen Saver to show all Photo Stream Photos.  However, under "Computer/My Library/Photos/Photo Stream only one picture continues to appear.  It's a bit confusing; but at least a user can see Photo Steam pictures!

  • HT4906 Photo stream with Apple TV2

    Why can't I sign in on ATV2 photo stream set-up.  After entering apple ID password I get a message aging unable to sign in and that iCloud terms and conditions have changed?.

    As I read this it should work. http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    However it has nothing to do with iPhoto for Mac. Try the Apple TV forum fir ATV questions. https://discussions.apple.com/community/appletv/appletv

  • How to delete specific photos from the photo stream that Apple TV is using

    I had previously used Aperture with Photostream on my Mac. The Apple TV apparently downloaded those photos. I stopped using Photostream and Aperture, but the photos are still there. The directions posted on this forum say
    If you are using Apple TV Software Update 6.0 or later, choose Photos from the main menu.
    If you are using Apple TV Software Update 5.1, choose Photo Stream from the main menu.
    If you are using Apple TV Software Update 5.0, choose Internet > Photo Stream from the main menu.
    If asked, sign in to your iCloud account.
    With your remote control, navigate to a photo that you want to delete. Press and hold the Select button, then choose Delete Photo.
    There is no Photos on the main menu.
    I want to individually delete some photos. Any ideas/

    Yes, there is an icon called iCloud photos on the main menu. You can go into your photo stream and select the photo(s) you wish to delete.

  • Photo Stream- 1 Apple ID, 2 Users

    Hi,
    My wife and I have been using the same Apple ID for a long time.
    With iMessages and FaceTime, even if both devices have the same Apple ID, you can choose a different "username" or receipient. So I can do FaceTime with her, using her phone number or Yahoo mail as ID.
    With Photo Stream, there is no such an option. The photos shared from her device are shared like if it is me (the account is under my name). And she cannot really share them with me so I can "like" and comment, they just appear in the Photo Stream menu without notification or anything.
    Any workaround or thoughts?
    Thanks!

    Yes you can.
    Switch off automatic download in
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatica Downloads > switch off the options you want. You can still download them individually.
    For Music, create playlists and sync only those playlist you are interested in
    example: Daniel's Rock, Daniel's Classics, Mary's Pop, Mary's Funk etc
    Switch off automatic sync in computer iTunes in
    iTunes > Preferences... (Windows: Edit > Preferences...) > Devices > select Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from Syncing automatically. You can then go though the contents and click Sync button manually.
    For iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, iCloud, do as Wjosten suggested.
