Photo streaming into Aperture

Hi I have acquired an iphone 5. I have set it up to wirelessly transfer iphone photos to "photostream" in A3. However I notice that photos I download from my regular camera via a card reader also go through to the Photostream. How can I prevent this? Cheers, jp.

Mitch,
You are in a general iMac forum. I'd recommend posting in the Aperture forum.

Import from photo stream into Lightroom 5.7 - how can I import only new photos since first import of all photos in stream (mac)

Hi
Importing my photos from photo stream (mac) went well, got 2012 photos out of my photo stream into LR 5.7 with the help of the new plug-in.
Now I have 3 new photo's in the stream and I want to add them to the library of LR.
When starting up the plug-in it tells me it will import 2015 photos, instead of just 3.
I hesitate to continue the process and to try my luck as I'm afraid I will end up with more than all 2012 photos doubled.
Any experience out there yet?
Thanks!
Kind regards
Jan

Found it.
At first I was scared off because LR showed the same amount of photos to be imported the second time as it did before the first import.
Fortunately, the second import did nothing but import the new photos.
Thanks.

I have imported my I photo library into Aperture. all the old i photo events are now in the aperture library showing number of photos but when clicked none display. I can see the photos if i run the cursor over the project. Help please.

I imported my i photo library into aperture.
I can see the i photo events in aperture library as events with the number of photos in each event.
When you click events in the aperture library no photos appear although if you roll the cursor over the event icon it show the photos. If you click on the event either on the event icon or in the library no photos appear.
Help

Check, if you have any filters set. The search fields in the Insector panel and the browser should be showing "All items" or "Showing All".
The Browser search field could be set for each project and album individually, so you have to check it for each project.
Regards
Léonie
For example: The projects count shows "20 items", but the browser is empty, because the project's filter is set to show only rejected items.

HT4906 how to import photos from photo stream into an event?

How to import photos from photo stream into an event?
In iPhoto 9.4.3 the following works:
If you have not auto imported the photos from the Photo Stream, as Larry suugests, select the photos that you want to import in the Photo Stream, and drag them to the "Events" view in the Source List. They will be imported as new events, auto split with respect to your preferences.

Photo Stream on Aperture making duplicates

I've been using photo stream with Aperture and my iphone with no problems since it first came out. But suddenly this week the photo stream feature on aperture started acting strange. Now every time I open Aperture, it downloads a new copy of photos that are already listed in photo-stream. Some photos are listed as many as 8 times
Above is a screenshot from my photo stream, the copies outlined in yellow. On my iphone there are only ~1000 photos in photo stream, but on aperture there are now 8000+ photos, with more downloading every time I reopen the application. I've read about other people having trouble with edited photos duplicated on photo-stream because of Aperture''s master / version system - but ALL of my photo stream photos are being duplicated, most of them were never touched.
I recently had my macbook repaired for an airport card failure - they also wiped the drive and had to restore from a Time Machine backup, but this problem did not arise until weeks after I did the restoration. If anyone has any idea how to stop this, I would really appreciate it.

I think it's the 30-day limitation. I've read that if you re-enable Photo Stream after restoring as you did on your iPad you only get the photos from the last 30 days. (Older photos seem to stay in your Photo Stream album on your device until you turn Photo Stream off, then turn it back on.)

Can't create new photo streams in Aperture

When I select new photos to add to a photo stream, I am not prompted to create a new photo stream, they are simply sent to the stock photo stream that is already shared between my iPhone and Aperture. How can I create new photo streams in Aperture if the standard method doesn't work for me? What is wrong with my setup that I can't follow the videos of instructions because I don't get a dialog box when I try to share?
Thanks,
Will

Is your Profile signature correct Mac OS X (10.7.5) ? Then you cannot create Shared Photo Streams. They require OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4, see:
Using and troubleshooting shared photo streams.
You can create Shared Photo Streams with:
an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 6
a Mac using OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 with Photo 9.4 or later or Aperture 3.4 or later
a PC using Windows 8, Windows 7, or Vista with the iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed. (iCloud Control Panel 2.1 required with Windows 8.)
If your system is compatible with shared streams, check, if you have enabled shared streams in both the System Preferences and Aperture's Preferences.

I would like to share my photo's titles and descriptions in the photo streams into which I place these carefully labeled photos. I do this so clients can see the names of the things they're swiping through. Is this even possible?

How do you open an image on the iPad, via Photo Stream, into PS Touch?

To anyone using an Apple iPad w/ PS Touch. How do you open an image on the iPad, via Photo Stream, into PS Touch?

You need to start from PS Touch for this.
There's two ways either direct in the gallery with the +image icon.
Or you create a document and use the +image icon in the document view.
thanks,

Should i keep pictures in photo stream in aperture, or copy them in a different folder

I have photo stream turned on from ipad and iphone. All pics taken from these devices will appear in photo stream on my Imac aperture.
If i delete some pictures on my iphone, will it delete them from my photosteam on my Imac? Will I lose those pictures?
If i want to keep them forever on my Imac (since the storage is much bigger than iphone), do i have to copy those pictures to a different project or can i let them into photo stream project?

You will see the images in the Photo Stream View - My Photo Straem only for a month at most; then they may be removed from the stream. You need to import them into Aperture into a project to keep them permanently; just drag them to a project of your choice.
If you have enabled "Automatic Import" for "My PhotoStream", the import will be done automatically on a monthly basis. Aperture will copy the PhotoStream images to projects named by month and year, like "Dez 2012 Photo Stream".
See: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
or iCloud: Photo Stream troubleshooting
for more information.

How can I stop iPhoto from grouping each month's Photo Stream into one huge event?

My iPhoto preferences are set to split events up based on 2-hour time periods. But photos that enter my iPhoto library via Photo Stream (basically all photos from my iPhone) get grouped into one big monthly event (i.e. titled something like "Jun 2012 Photo Stream"), which I then have to manually break up into smaller, more meaningful events.
Does anyone know of a way to make this behaviour stop? I'd prefer that iPhoto follow the preferences I have set, which is to break up events based on 2-hour time spans.

The problem is that every import is at least one new Event, and so it's quite possible that you could have 1,000 new Events every month thanks to Phootstream.
However, it's not such a huge deal to just select the Event at the end of the month and auto-split it (in the Events menu)

HT201302 How do I import my iCloud Photo Stream into Finder so I can edit images in Photoshop?

I'm new to iCloud and my Photo Stream. On my iPhone 6 I have 60-odd pictures from a vacation that I'd like to put on Facebook _AFTER_ editing them in Photoshop CS4. Is there a easy way to copy the photo stream pictures to Finder so I can get started? I don't see this option on my iPhone, and I definitely don't want to import them into iPhoto which is so limited in editing capabilities.
Thanks in advance for any/all help.
Mike

Who shall be able to see your photos? If you use "My Photo Stream", only persons using your AppleID and iCloud account will be seeing the Photos. That is very restrictive. And the PhotoStream does not store your photos for a long time. It only pushes the photos to your other devices.
You can use Shared Photo Streams. That are stored in the cloud and you can invite other iCloud users to view these streams. But they will need MacOS X Mt. Lion to see the stream. iCloud: Using and troubleshooting Shared Photo Streams
But if you publish a journal as a webpage to your iCloud homepage, the webpage will be stored in the cloud and you can invite persons to view the webpage. They do not need to sign up for a shared photo stream.
To view your published web journal in a web browser you need to share a link, also to yourself on your windows laptop:
To share a link to your published journal, tap Share Journal and do any of the following:
Send a link in a message: Tap Message, add a recipient, and tap Send.
Tweet a link: Tap Twitter and enter a tweet. Tap Send.
Post a link to Facebook: Tap Facebook and tap Post.
Send an email with a link: Tap Mail, add a recipient, and tap Send.
Copy a link: Tap Copy and paste the link into another app.
Sharing your journal and publishing to Photo Stream may take a long time. Your iPad will not upload to the Cloud, if the battery is low (less then 20%).

A better manual? & what about photo stream from Aperture?

Is there a better manual for ATV other than the one that came with it? I find that one VERY lacking in operating instructions for the ATV.
And what about setting up to stream photos from my photos in Aperture? The only options in the menu are Flickr, Mobile Me and to sync. Syncing all my photos would really eat up the HD space! I would rather stream.
Looks like the option to stream photos from Aperture was eliminated with the last ATV firmware update. What gives Apple??

I have a similar problem using photo stream, turned it on the other day after I had been emailing pics from my laptop and then opened mail on my iPad and opened pics which were all high resolution, photos looked great in photos and albums, but a couple of hours later when they had downloaded in photo stream they were pixelated. They also streamed to my iPhone 4 and the same problem there. A couple of months ago I installed iPhoto on my phone and edited a pic that was on my phone and when saved it also pixelated. I'm beginning to think this is maybe the cause of this, because as I have said, these are high res files and look great when viewed through camera roll, photos or albums, it's only the photo stream folder that is affected. Does photo stream down sample images? Doesn't explain why the iPhoto edit on my phone pixelated though. real curious as to why this is happening, maybe just turn photo stream off.

Photo stream in aperture and iphoto are not working for me.

Can anyone help? I have been getting this message on Iphoto 11 9.2 (626) "iphoto was unable to connect to photo stream" and in Aperture "aperture was unable to connect to photo stream" everything is working on icloud except this.

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.

Delete pictures from photo stream in aperture

Downloaded the new Aperture that allows you to delete pictures from Photo Stream. I deleted photos but those photos remain on my iphone. What did I do wrong?

You might try posting in the Aperture forum - there are some very knowledgeable participants there; in case you don't get any replies here.

Can't see shared photo streams in Aperture

I have created a number of photo streams and shared them with my wife.
My wife has accepted the streams and can see them on her iPhone.
She uses Aperture on the Mac but cannot see the streams there.
She has the three checkboxes on the photo streams tab checked, and her own photo stream is visible.
Under the web section in the Aperture library browser, photo stream doesn't appear - her Facebook entry shows up, but not photo stream.
Photo stream shows in the recent section of the library browser, but that is just the photos in my wife's own photo stream, you don't see the individual streams that I can see under photo stream under web in my Aperture view.
My wife has photo stream checked in settings -> iCloud on her Mac.
Any suggestions?

I attach four screenshots Yann - one is the project hierarchy - where you'll see PhotoStream appearing in Recent items, but not under the Web section (where you do see Facebook) and the other the preferences pane for PhotoStream in Aperture showing all three boxes checked.
Attachments one and two are from my wife's computer - where she's not seeing shared PhotoStreams.
Attachments three and four are from my computer - we I do see them.
What I notice when I compare these side by side is that there is a difference in the setting panel for photo stream between the two. Mine has a fourth option for shared photo streams - my wife's doesn't.
Yet both s/w versions for Aperture are 3.4.5. There is a difference in what is listed in the Aperture version after the version number, but both computers are fully up to date with no further updates available. (Final two images first my wife's then my s/w version)
Is your view/settings any different?
