Can I organise photos into albums within iCloud Photo Library?

i Understand that edits / deletes etc in iCloud Photo Libary will be reflected on all my iOS devices but can I organise my photos into albums using iCloud photo library?
basically I want to take photos on my iPhone, review them on my iPad, delete the ones I don't want and keep the good ones in a relevant album (e.g. "Summer holiday 2014"). Then I want to be able to see identical albums on both my iPad and iPhone. From what I've seen so far, when I create an album and save a photo to it then that album is only local to that device?
please help.

Are you saying it showed 800 photos before turning off iCloud photo library or that the 800 photos disappeared after you enabled iCloud photo library for the first time, the distinction is quite important.

How can I add photos from Camera Roll to the Photo Stream album?

How can I add photos taken during the past month from my Camera Roll to the Photo Stream album?

Hi,
It's easy to do in iPhoto11 (click on a photo in iphoto and select share in the bottom right corner, then select Photo Stream), I'm not sure you can do this on the iphone.
Regards
Keith

Is there a way to reorder the Photo Stream Albums on my iOS Device?

I have been searching for a way to change the order of my Photo Stream albums on my iPhone/iPad/MacBook Air to no avail. Is there a way to change the order that they are shown within the Photo Stream in my photos? Thanks

I've been looking for the same thing. It would seem to be a good feature for Apple to add.
I have found one workaround that may be helpful to you, although it's a bit of a pain. The images appear in the order that you add them to the stream. And you can select the images from the stream itself to add them again. So what I did is
1. Add all the pictures I need to the stream.
2. Determine the order I want them in.
3. From the stream, add the pictures again one by one (using "select" within the stream, then the little "send to" icon).
4. Delete the originals from the stream.
And this did the trick.

My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) only lets me take 50 photos before it fills up. My Photo Stream album has 1000 photos in it. Is that preventing me taking more photos?

The iCloud FAQ seems to say iCloud does NOT automatically physically download and store all its photos back on all your devices, yet I'm sure the reason I can't take very many photos is because iCloud is doing just that....sending photos I already deleted from the phone's (non-photo-stream) standard photo library back to the phone and thereby filling up my phone's hard drive. I thought PhotoStream and iCloud held your photos in the "cloud" so you could view them THERE; but it looks like when the "cloud" is "full", the phone is full too (the FAQ says photos don't affect the 5GB free storage on the cloud, yet it sure seems the "cloud" affects the storage on my phone).
Is there a way to tell iCloud to NOT use my phone as it's hard drive?
I like the concept of having every photo automatically uploaded to the "cloud"...but shouldn't I be able to take more pictures when the "cloud" is "full" with 1000 photos?
If I delete the photos from my photo stream album, it says all the photos will be deleted from everywhere, including the "cloud". And, the only way to save them is to manually save them to the phone (they're already there....as described above) or manually save them to iPhoto (my Mac is an older MacMini that can't use any OS above 10.6.8, so iCloud isn't available to my desktop Mac).
Here are the options as I see them:
1. Turn off PhotoStream and give up on using the "cloud" or "iCloud" entirely. Make sure to back up those photos I want to keep regularly in iPhoto when I back up my phone. (I had this naive idea iCloud was intended to simplify this....)
2. Manually go through the 1000 photos that are apparently now back on my phone in the "Photostream album" and decide, viewing them ON the tiny phone screen, which ones should be manually deleted and which to keep, hoping that frees up enough space on the phone to be able to use the camera.
3. Just delete the entire photostream album, and therefore all the photos on my iPad and in iCloud, and accept that I didn't really want them anyway?
Is there any other option? Do I have to choose between PhotoStream and storage space on my phone, if I want to use the phone's camera after "1000 photos" reside in iCloud? The way it seems to be going, I will ALWAYS be fighting for storage on my phone as long as iCloud is "on"...no sooner than I delete photos from Photostream, every new photo will just be downloaded BACK to the phone anyway.
I'm almost at my wit's end.....is iCloud/PhotoStream ALL OR NOTHING?

Please disregard this question. I'll submit a shorter and more direct question. Thanks.

Can not delete photos or albums sync from computer to iphone 4s

I can not delete photos or albums that were sync from computer to iphone 4s. I tap edit but there is no delete icon. Help. This is my first iphone

You delete them the same way you put them there, the sync process.
Deselect the folder in itunes and sync.

Sync issue - I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc.

I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc. The photos taken do show up in My Photo Stream folder on my iphone and ipad. I have googled and noticed that this is quite a widespread problem.
I must stress that I have never had a problem with photos from my iPhone not syncing with my pc before. This is the first time I have encountered this problem, so this has nothing to do with my Wi-Fi or my pc because nothing has changed in that respect. My pc's operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
6 days ago I took steps to try and kick start syncing again by uninstalling the iCloud panel on my pc.
1. Uninstalled the iCloud panel.
2. I saved all the photos that were in my My Photo Stream on my pc to another folder.
3. Deleted the My Photo Stream folder.
4. Rebooted.
5. Downloaded iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows from support Apple site and installed on my pc.
6. Logged in to iCloud, set up syncing.
7. Rebooted.
I noticed that there is now a folder on my pc called iCloud Photos with subfolders which one is My Photo Stream as well as my share iPhone folders.
The photos are still not syncing.
I have only 34 photos in My Photo Stream on my pc.
I have deliberately taken random photos over the last few days since the actions of uninstalling and re installing the iCloud panel.
Out of a dozen which I took yesterday, only one has showed up in My Photo Stream on my pc. Only 6 photos out of fifty photos which I have taken since uninstalling/reinstalling the iCloud panel have appeared in My Photo Stream on my pc.
My iPhone shows that I have 980 photos in My Photo Stream so it shows that something is not quite right with syncing to the pc.
Hopefully someone has an answer or a fix?
Thanks for reading.

Hi Amish,
I should have mentioned that I have signed out of the iCloud Control Panel several times and no syncing occurs.
Thanks for your response anyway. I appreciate your feedback.

When i print out cd album case inserts-the songs all print in one glob and then the photo of album on same page prints out normal-only happens on my itunes -not anywhere else i print ok thanks

hi-i need help- when i try to print a cd jewel case insert(i did this many times)the songs side will print out on top of each other like one big glob-and the other half the photo of album comes out correct-i thought it was my old printer so of course got a new one-still does the same crap-help me

I believe that insufficient RAM may be the source of some of your problems. If you have a RAM of somewhere 4 to 8GB, you will experience smoother computing. 3GB doesn't seem right, so you might want to learn more by going to this site:

I don't know what know what's happening with your optical drive, but it seems you use your drive quite a bit. In that case, look into a lens cleaner for your machine. It's inexpensive, works quite well.
I hope you'll post here with your results!

Backing up photos by album to external hard drive

I have just spent days organizing my photos into albums and folders on my internal hard drive. I would like to move this organized information to an external hard drive. When I drag the library over to the external hard drive, will the photos remain organized in the same albums and photos? If not, how do I get the albums/folders over separately?

Yes. You can use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to copy Events or Albums from Library 1 to Library 2 and preserve the titles, keywords. descriptions, modified files, etc.
If you want to backup slideshows, calendars, books then you'll want to use a backup application like Synk Standard to backup all changes from Library 1 to Library 2. That will preserve your library exactly.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How do I move photos from album to album in Photo

How do I move photos from album to album in Photo?

Now try this. Try to import photos from your camera's SD Card by dragging and dropping the photos from the SD Card to an album of choice. You can't.
Actually you can if you drag the photos onto the albums' icon in the sidebar pane at the left or into the albums open window at the right. This
gets you this:
However, this test was for photos in a folder on the Desktop. I didn't have a memory card to test so you may have to move the pictures from the card to a folder on the Desktop and import from there.

Cropping photo in album A changes same photo in album B too.

I have Album A, with photos cropped square. I copied the same photos to Album B and I want to crop those lets say 'postcard' format. I need to work with these 2 formats for my business. Now all photos in Album A also change to 'postcard' size. How do I keep 2 different sizes, in 2 different albums.

Albums are logical entities that are simply points to the photo in the library - any change made to that photo anyplace will be reflected in all other places - you can make changes and then revert to original restoring the original photo after you have used the changed photo - or you can duplicate the photos and change one of the copies leaving the other one alone

I put all my photos into album .Then proceeded to erace photos from last 18 months.. Went back to albums, and no pictures in most of the albums.. What happened? Don't know what to do. How can I get pictures back in my albums?

I put all my photos int albums. Then went back to same photos in last 18 months and deleted them. When I went back to albums, most of the pictures were gone. What happened? All of my pictures gone? I need help...

Hi saginrsf,
Deleted them from where? The photos in your albums are not the actual photos in your library. So if you deleted the photos from the Photos section of iPhoto, then you have deleted them period. All of the photos in your Albums are just "pointing" to the original photos. Albums are just a way of organizing your photos, but they are not copies of them.
Did you delete them from the Photos in iPhoto?

How to rotate photos in albums?

how to rotate photos in albums??

yes, i can downloaded the photo(s) and use preview or iphoto ot some other program to rotate each one, but it seems so awkward, inelegant and SLOW, just to take a quick peek at the five separate photos that someone sends.
is there really not an app or some similar thing to help? i recall downloaded an app for explorer on windows, to take care of the same problem...

How can I save the order of photos in albums? Even though I have set as album order they revert back

How can I save the order of photos in albums in Elements 11? Even though I have set as album order they revert back to original order.

Could you confirm that when you re-open the sorted album, the display order on the top bar just over the browsing space is still in 'album' order ? That order may have been changed to a date order. For me, I get the order of the last album I opened, not necessarily the 'album' order of the present album.

How do i transfer individual photos or albums from my iPhoto to my iPhone?

I have photos that I imported to iPhoto and tinkered with them on there. Now I want to put them onto my iPhone 5s to ultimately post them to Instagram. However, when I go into iTunes and attempt to sync the photos from that it just says that my photos can be downloaded via Wi-Fi or a mobile network via iCloud. Well I can't as I cannot see a way to do it. There is no photo stream option and no other apparent way to do it. How do I do this?

If you have not enabled the iCloud Photo Library (beta) on your iPhone you can add them to My Photo Stream from iPhoto on your Mac and then save them to your iPhone's Camera Roll from the My Photo Stream album on your iPhone.
