Photo Stream Videos-Shared folders

Why can't I view a video on iCloud.com that is in a shared photo stream?
Why can't I email a video to myself that is in a shared photo stream?

Always nice for Apple to add stuff lie this with no warning
Just tried it here from and am getting the same message. I imagine that the applications will need to be updated for them to be able to make use of this new capability.
Hopefully Apple will have something to say on this in the next few days.

We are in for some more surprises. Shared Photo Streams are now working both ways.
When you share your stream with somebody, make sure the person will not flood your Photo Stream with embarrasing photos.
I remember - in Mobile Me times, I once allowed some students to upload their photos of our expedition to a shared photo album on my Mobile Me site. Within an hour a student had exhausted the quota by dumping the complete contents of the SD card into my Mobile Me album.
From the IOS ipad user guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1595/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
Share streams of photos and videos with people you choose. Friends you’ve chosen who have an iCloud account—and iOS 6 or later or OS X Mountain Lion or later—can join your stream, view the photos you add, and leave comments. If they have iOS 7, they can add their own photos and videos to the stream. You can also publish your stream to a website for anyone to view.
Note, that the manual only says "Friends ..... view photos", not videos.
Sharing videos requires IOS 7, I think. Viewing photos and videos should work with Mt. Lion, however.
We'll see, when the next iPhoto/Aperture update will be released

TS4526 Can't access shared photo stream videos on my Apple TV, ?

I have an Apple TV that is a couple of years old and can't access shared Photo Stream videos. Is this something that only the third generation Apple TV can do? I don't have any problem using an iPad 3, iPhone 5 or 5S to access these videos so I suspect it is a limitation with the older Apple TV. My cousin has a newer Apple TV and can view these videos but I can't see them.

Have your husband check to see if he can view those 9 photos in full view or the edit mode.

iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ - Support - Apple

How do I consolidate all this at this point: Icloud Drive, Itunes Match, Local iTunes Library, Local iPhoto, Local Aperture, Photo stream, Familly sharing, sharing on iOS, music sharing on iOS, music sharing on mac etc.

I am trying to grasp all the possibilities for consolidating my stuff and my family's stuff from multiple devices and multiple accounts from multiple sources but I cant.
I have been reading many instructions and FAQ regarding iCloud Drive, iCloud Sharing, iTunes Match, Familly Sharing, file size limitations on iCloud Drive, app sharing on iOS, Backup vs Sync vs cloud sharing, storing iWork documents on iCloud drive, storing iTunes library on iCloud Drive, storing iPhoto library on iCloud Drive, storing Aperture library on the iCloud, the Photos app on iOS with iCloud and many others.... but I feel like I need a systems admin course from apple to manage all of it.
This is what I and my family currently have:
Hardware: Multiple iPhones, Multiple Macs, Apple TV (with hard drive), Multiple iPads.
Operating systems: Everything is upgraded to the latest iOS and Yosemite.
Libraries:
1) Multiple iTunes Libraries locally stored on Macs and IPhones with lossless CD music and iTunes purchased music. What I want to do:
a) Have a main family shared iTunes library across ALL devices that contains our Lossless music and purchased music. so that it can be played across ALL devices. With the ability to have private music for each individual (Not shared).
b) Purchase new music and add it to the family share or purchase music and make it private (Not shared).
2) Multiple iPhoto Libraries macs (With photo stream from iPhones) and ONE Aperture Library on my mac. What I want to do:
a) Have a main family shared photo library that every one can deposit to and view.
b) Store individual iPhoto libraries on iCloud Drive(s)? So that everyone can have their own library and edit it across THEIR devices.
c) Store and use my Aperture Library on iCloud Drive?
Other documents:
iWork files, PDFs etc. What I want to do:
a) Have a main family shared area (on iCloud Drive i suppose) where we can share documents.
b) Sync private documents across ALL individuals devices (Available locally and on iCloud).
c) Store private documents (One instance) on iCloud drive and make them available on ALL individuals devices.
d) Backup of local documents?
Apps:
iOS apps:
a) Share purchased apps?
b) Not share private apps.
Storage:
What do I purchase to accomplish the above:
a) iCloud storage for everyone?
b) iTunes Match for everyone?
c) All of the above?
Conclusion:
It would be great for Apple to explain all this with all the options in one concise document instead of hunting down individual documents and sections all over the place.
Thank you for your help.

Hey there!
You and I are data soulmates. I have been having this trouble for a while and have yet to get my head around it. Our problem is that we've cycled through multiple macs and the "home" or "host" for all the stuff that's now been moved or moving to the Cloud is very scattered. It drives me crazy... almost to the point where I'm thinking about starting a brand-new iCloud account and beginning from scratch.
If you have any experiences or recommendations you could share about your strategy, I would love to hear it.

Apple TV can't find my computer/ipad or itunes libraries of either but does find photo stream. (home sharing support all done, no fix) any idea's?

apple tv 3, software: 5.2
Using an Ipad2 , ios 6.1.2
can't seem to share in itunes?

Your Apple TV won't be able to access your iPad library. The reason that it will connect to Photo Stream is because it is pulling it from your iCloud account, not by connecting to your computer. Here are some things to consider (without knowing more about your issue):
1. Are the Apple TV & computer with iTunes connected to the same network?
2. Is iTunes open on the computer?
3. Do you have Home Sharing setup on the computer and the Apple TV with the same account?

Can't load photos into iCloud photo stream for sharing (from iMac)

In iPhoto, I select an event, hit "Share >> iCloud", then "add new stream", then get the dialog box, then enter a friend's email, then hit "share". then get message "xx photos were posted". But when I look at my iCloud there is only an empty data stream (correct title but zero photos).

Where are you looking at the stream? On the same mac or on an iOS device? Do you see the shared photos in the iCloud section in the iPhoto library? Is your Wi-Fi working correctly?
Can it be, that you have hit one of the sharing limits?
iCloud: My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing limits
If you have exceeded a limit, you may have to wait, before the photos will upload.

Photo stream questions, sharing, etc.

Shared photo stream questions
Camera Roll (CR), Photo Stream (PS)
If I create a shared PS and share it with a friend, is this temporary like the main PS (most recent 1000 images)?
For example, if I put one photo in a shared PS and then take 1000 new photos (but I don't add it to the shared PS), presumably it will disappear from my main PS, but will the original photo disappear from the shared PS, too?
I noticed that each month I have a new monthly event titled, for example, "August photo stream", etc. Are these temporary, too? If I take 1000 photos in September, will the August PS event start to lose images, or will this only occur in the main PS section?
Apple's web site says "iCloud stores new photos for 30 days, so you have plenty of time to connect your iOS device to Wi-Fi and make sure you always have your most recent shots handy." What does this mean? If I take a photo on iPhone it's permanently in CR (until I sync with iTunes on OS X and then iPhoto offers to remove them from CR), but they're also in PS, which is temporary, right? If so, as long as CR is permanent, how big an issue is the 30 day rule?
Here's where I'm (further) confused...
On iPad, my PS section (the tab on bottom) only has 30, relatively recent photos. Each photo was taken with iPhone.
However, on iPhone, my PS section has 547 images. Some of these were taken as screen shots from iPad (even though they're not on iPad's PS??) Some of the images were "Save As... " image files from OS X, some were photos imported to desktop iPhoto from a camera. Many of the images were taken years ago. On desktop iPhoto, I have over 3000 images, but the images on iPhone's PS do not appear to be the most recent 1000 images imported to iPhoto.
So why did iPad's screen shots disappear from iPads PS yet appear on iPhone's PS?
Why aren't the two iOS device's PS sections the same?
Is this confusing to everyone, or am I just dense?
Thanks!

You are most likely using the same apple id under settings>iCloud. If you just want to stop the photo sharing you can open settings>iCloud and turn off photostream. If you want to keep using photostream and still not share you need to set up an alternate apple id to use under settings>icloud

Photo Stream: are shared album pics on my ipad hard drive???

My son has shared many pics in albums with ms using Photo Stream.
Are these pics on my iPads hard drive?? Taking up space?
thx

It's been a while since your post, but if you haven't gotten the issue fixed, you could try a restore from within itunes on your computer. This will replace the OS on the ipad and since the photo app is included in that, it may fix your problem.

Cannot create another shared photo stream - 50 shared photo stream limit?

Hi - I'm getting this error message when trying to create a new photo stream in Aperture:
I've deleted a few photo streams and I'm still getting the error.
Also, when I look at the Photo Stream Limits Apple posted I don't see any mention of this limitation. What am I missing?

I can confirm the problem: The same message, as soon as I try to add stream no. 51.
But for me it works to delete one of the streams. I could replace it by a new stream without problems.
I tried this with MacOS X 10.8.4 and 10.8.5, Aperture 3.4.5.
The limit seems to be 50 streams.
I've deleted a few photo streams and I'm still getting the error.
Have you waited for the deletion to be synced with iCloud? Or you may have hit another limit. For me the replacing of Photo streams is working well, but the limit of 50 streams is disappointing.

How can I stop my photo stream from sharing with my other devices?

My mom and I both have iphones and whenever one of my friends or I set up a photo stream she gets it too. How can I stop this from happening?

To fix this you need to be on a separate iCloud account (when you share and account, you share your photo stream). To migrate your phone to a separate account, start by saving any photos not in your camera roll to your camera roll by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with a separate Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. (Deleting the account only deletes it from your phone, not from iCloud. Your mom's phone wont be effected by this. Also, you can continue to share the same ID for iTunes and App Store purchasing, it doesn't need to be the same as your iCloud ID.) Once you are on a different account, your photo stream will be no longer be merged with your mother's.

Photo stream videos using iCloud

I would like to use iCloud to stream videos to my Ipod touch . I need to edit on my pc and send to the cloud to stream to my iPod touch. Is this possible if not is there a way to use the cloud for video?

How much space is available for streaming videos shared photo? videos are compressed?

Is there a difference between video uploaded with data cellular or uploaded with wifi?

Cellular will be slower than Wi-Fi.

Photo stream with multiple folders

Hi,
Can’t Apple TV see more than one level of folders when streaming photos? i have the following folders hierarchy vacations-> 2007->Brazil for whatever reason when I set the shared folder to be “vacations” Apple TV claim that there are no pictures in the shared library. if I set the shared library to 2007 it will work and will see all my vacation’s folders under the 2007 folder. I remember that it used to work long time ago and Itune will stream the pictures in all the subfolders no matter if the folders are one or more level deep. any thoughts what is wrong?
I use Win7, latest iTune, Apple TV v3.0.
Thanks!
