Photos missing after upload to icloud photos

Good Morning,
We recently activated the icloud photo beta app to move all of the ipad photos into icloud as we were having issues accessing a few photos from the photostream and though it may be a good starting point.
Since the upload a selection of photos are missing from the ipad photostream and are not visible in the icloud photos web page.
We have tried a restore of the ipad to the same day we set the upload going, however this has restored without the same batch of photos.
Can anyone suggest a reason for this happening, has this happened before?
We are using an ipad 2 on 8.1.2
ANy assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Soft reset phone. Are they in photos app? Or on vcloud?

  • Why have my Address Book contacts disappeared after uploading to iCloud?

    I am using my MacBook Pro w/OSX Lion.
    After having many, many problems with contacts, calendars and bookmarks in MobileMe, migrating to iCloud, encountering a huge mess of duplicates and even completely missing contacts I decided to start over.  So I disabled the iCloud account on all Macs and IOS devices.  I then ensured all contacts, calendars and bookmarks were deleted from the MacBook Pro.  I then used the Address Book export I'd made just prior to the migration from Mobile Me to iCloud and imported this onto my MacBook Pro.  I've completely gone though the Address Book and removed or merged duplicates and cleaned up all contacts with detail.  I backed up my Address Book again at this point.  I then logged into iCloud.com using my original Apple User ID (NOT the MobileMe/me.com account which I'm going to vacate) and ensured that there were no contacts in the cloud and I deselected the default calendars here as well.  My intention was/is to begin by starting small and deal only with the MacBook Pro Address Book and iCloud Contacts.  So after I confirmed there is no data in the cloud I go into the MacBook Pro System Preferences > iCloud > Account Details ensuring I was signed out of the me.com user and entered my original Apple ID I've had since I started using iTunes many years back.  I quit the browser and the Address Book and verified the non me.com user was saved under the System Preferences.  I then selected Contacts under these iCloud System Preferences and I was asked If I wanted to merge my contacts with those in the cloud.  Because there were no contacts in the cloud I selected yes.  The spinning indicator indicated that the upload was occurring.  Now, there are no contacts in the cloud and the Address Book contacts are missing.  Thinking that my doing the Address Book backup may have removed all the data from the Address Book, I deselected Contacts in the iCloud System Preferences, reimported the backup into Address Book that I'd just done, confirmed the contacts I just imported appear in Address Book and I reselect Contacts in the iCloud System Preferences and again I get the spinning indicator.  Again, there are no Contacts in the cloud and the contacts are missing from Address Book.
    What the heck am I doing wrong?  I've simplified my original attempt with iCloud by concentrating my efforts to just contacts AND I'm only using the MacBook and the iCloud cloud and I've still got problems.  I thought this approach would narrow down where the issue lies and allow me to monitor the process more easily but I seem to be worse off than before I'd tried to resolve the initial migration problems because now I have no contacts.
    I'm new to Macs so if you have a solution, please help and please give specifics because I'm still learning the structure and don't understand a lot of the acronyms and jargon.
    Thanx

    If you have a back up file, I'd try turning off iCloud contact syncing on all macs from system preferences > iCloud –
    DONE
    as well as any secondary accounts from system preferences > mail, contacts and calendars –
    DONE (this was confusing but I figured out that you meant System Preferences > Mail, Contacts & Calendars which is what you said in lowercase.  For some reason without the capital letters I didn't clue in that Mail, Contacts and Calendars was an icon option under the System preferences and so I overlooked it multiple times. I see your use of "secondary account" which I note used also as a term in the User Tip link you referred me to view.  Although, I still don't understand what this 'secondary' account is, I'm not interested in any secondary accounts because I've got my hands full with just iCloud for now. I did delete all accounts under the Mail, Contacts & Calendars).
    If you have any iOS devices I'd do the same on those as well. –
    DONE (not even introducing other Macs or IOS devices to the equation until I get the iCloud and MacBook syncing contacts correctly)
    I'd log into iCloud.com and check my Address Book was empty and empty it if necessary –
    DONE (it was empty already)
    and then delete all contacts from every Address Book on every device
             DONE
    Then I'd turn Address Book syncing back on –
    DONE (This assuming that by ‘turn back on’ you mean System Preferences > iCloud and check marking the box next to Contacts)
    and import my contacts from the backup file –
    DONE (This assuming that by ‘import my contacts’ you mean importing the previously exported Address Book back up file back into the Address Book. I see contacts listed in the Address Book when I did this.)
    No syncing seems to happen at this point?
    you might also take a look at this User Tip, to ensure you understand the differences between the different accounts in Address Book before adding the contacts back.
             I did read this but understand is probably not an accurate term for my interpretation of what I read.  I get that On My Mac will not sync with what is in the cloud and iCloud will sync with the cloud.  In Address Book under the single head red ribbon I see neither account heading that is mentioned.  I also was not asked at the time of import to select which ‘account’ I’d like the contacts setup under.
    A) If there is no indication as to what Address Book account the contacts fall under, how does on find this out? 
    User Tips states
    Your Address Book when synced with iCloud will have more than one account.
         My assumption is that I'm not synced with iCloud if I don't see either account option listed. I also would think that if I'm not synced and thus don't have more than one account then perhaps the All Contacts default to an On My Mac account but don't reflect an account heading of 'On My Mac’ as seen on the screen shot of the User Tips example.
    Furthermore, User Tips also states
    Default Account
    Your 'default'account is set in address book preferences > general (the option is only displayed if you have more than one account).
             It would seem relevant to list which account your defaulted to even if you do not have more than one account because elsewise how are you supposed to know which account it is setup under?
    B)  How do you change which ‘account’ your contacts are setup under if they are under the wrong account?
             Assuming again that my contacts are ‘On My Mac’, then how do I move them to the ‘iCloud’ account of which is not listed?
    C)  Will any of this be affected by groups? 
    The five listings under All Contacts are groups that I set up as a sort of invitation list (so Christmas cards is one I’d probably setup this time of year).  Although this question is secondary I would like to confirm that my interpretation of groups is accurate.  I understand groups to be a sort of tagging of selected contacts from All Contacts but that the contacts in these groups are not duplicates to those in All Contacts. Is this correct?  I ask because the User Tips states
    To quickly duplicate a contact, drag it to your desktop, navigate to 'Groups', select the account you wish to duplicate to, double click the contact on your desktop.
                When reading this tip, I interpret that dragging and dropping contacts from All Contacts into a group would be similar to what is suggested in this tip which would indeed ‘duplicate’ the contact.  I did drag and drop when I setup my groups so I’m concerned I duplicated the contacts in Address Book.  I do not see two copies of the same contact under All Contacts though.
    By the way, don't take it personally –
    I don't, I have reading difficulties galore and am happy to accommodate if I can.  I hope this is better. Helping you helps me if you're not struggling to read when thinking about the solution.
    Thanx

  • Properties Data Missing After Uploading on .ftp

    Hi All,
    We are having problems retaining the properties information in the .pdf files we upload to our ftp area.
    Here's what's happening.
    I have added metadata into the Properties area (I have tried this two ways; in Acrobat itself under File/Properties/Description - AND when right clicking on the file on the desktop, and adding to the Properties provided in the dropdown box). After saving the .pdf files, I uploaded them onto our .ftp - the metadata disappears. And I know this happens at the uploading process - to test this I uploaded a file with Properties data included in the file. Then I downloaded the EXACT SAME file that was just uploaded. Sure enough, all the Properties data I typed into the file is missing.
    I don't know if this issue is with the .pdf files, our .ftp
    Is anyone else having similar issues?
    I have our IT guys working on the problem. Thot I'd help them out and see if anyone else out there had ideas.
    Cheers
    Vikas

    Hi Mic,
    Thanks for your interest in this query, it would be helpful if you could guide us.
    Please find below required details
    1. FTP folders has full permissions (including subfolder)
    2. local OS - win XP (I have tried from different OS , XP, windows 2000 / vista)
    3. Server OS - win 2003 server

  • ICal calendar missing after synch with iCloud

    I am using OS X 10.8.5 and iCal 6.0. When I tried to synch with iCloud it initially got stuck updating the server. After force quiting the program the calendar is now gone. Is there any way to get the missing calendar back?

    I have had exactly the same problem - clearly a common problem Apple should be looking at preventing?! Is there any way I can safely activate iCloud calendars etc once I've restored my backed up calendar without everything being erased again? Any help much appreciated, thanks

  • PayPal Button missing after upload on iWeb 8

    I've created a page on iWeb with a PayPal button.  I created the button on PayPal and added it to my page using the HTML widget and it shows up fine in iWeb.  When I upload it to my server the button and look at the page on the web it shows this message:
    When I spoke with my server provider they said they could not see the HTML code.  I'm not sure why it's not uploading. 
    A publishing error message also appears after I upload the page:
    Although I got this message all my pages were uploaded on my site and they looked fine except for the area where I placed the PayPal button.
    Any ideas how I can get my PayPal button to upload and work?
    Thank you

    I'm hosting my site through goDaddy.  This is the page in question:  http://dqtrs.com/DQtrs/Order.html
    I uploaded the entire site again and now the PayPal button is showing fine and working but a few of the other jpgs that I use for links are missing.  This is how it looks in iWeb:
    But this is what is posting now:
    At least I know the PayPal button works now.  Just need to figure out why the other files aren't loading properly.  They were prior when the PayPal button wasn't uploading correctly.
    Thanks for you time,

  • I should know, but I don't. If I upload all of my photos to iCloud and then delete them off of my iPhone (for more storage space), will they all remain in iCloud or am I missing the point of iCloud?

    I should know, but I don't. If I upload all of my photos to iCloud and then delete them off of my iPhone (for more storage space), will they all remain in iCloud or am I missing the point of iCloud?

    Right now, there is no way to upload and access photos in iCloud. You need to import them to a computer if you want to be able to retrieve them later:

  • Photos after upgrading to iOS 8 not uploaded to iCloud

    Before updating to iOS 8 I had in iOS 7 deactivated the service Photostream. All of my 200 photos I had stored only in memory of my iPad. After updating to iOS 8 I activated Photostream. The photo is there but not uploaded. They are still in the memory of the iPad. The new post-shooting photos uploaded to iCloud without problem. Is there any possibility of my 200 photos to get iCloud? Thank you and sorry for bad English.

    Same thing happened to me. I realized it was Foursquare the app that was consuming the location service constantly. I went to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and disabled Foursquare for location services.
    Maybe you have Foursquare or another similar app that's consuming the location service. Perhaps you should try disabling the apps in Location Services one at the time.
    Hope it helps!
    Regards.

  • Some photos do not upload to iCloud

    I took about 100 photos at an event.  It was one had a chance to go to on the spur of the moment, and I only had my iPhone (5s, running 8.1.3). Normally for something like this, I would have used a camera, but my phone was all I had.
    My phone is set to upload photos to iCloud.  But, 36 hrs later, about 20% (18 or 20....I haven't completed the careful comparison yet) of the photos that are on my phone are NOT in my iCloud (as viewed in iPhoto on my Mac; they're not in my PhotoStream on my iPad either so I'm assuming they really aren't in iCloud). 
    There is no difference, that I can detect, in the photos that did not make it to iCloud (from the ones that did).  I transferred a couple to my Mac by Messaging and they have the same characteristics (in "Info") as the ones that came to the Mac automatically.
    I tried selecting a couple of photos that did not make it to iCloud on my phone and, with the little sharing icon (up arrow), I selected them for sharing to My Photo Stream.  So far (about an hour) they have NOT appeared in my Photostream view in iPhoto on my Mac.
    What gives?  I definitely have had this occur occasionally before, with a shot or two.  Normally I would use my camera for a bunch of photos like this and wouldn't notice the problem.  But in trying to bulk transfer slightly over 100 photos to my Mac, I was HOPING that I could count on iCloud photo sharing to do the job for me. Instead, I have a bigger nuisance trying to inventory my camera and make sure I haven't missed manually transferring one or two to my Mac!!
    Suggestions appreciated!

    Well, during the now 3 day period since the photos were taken, the phone (and camera app) has been closed, powered off, restarted, etc. a number of times.  I was outdoors and not connected to wi-fi during the shoot.  But my phone went on a charger and connected to wi-fi right after I got home.  Since I took over 100 photos at this event, there was a period near the end of the session when my phone battery was low, but some of the photos missing from photo stream are in the first group that I took that day.  The phone never "died" or failed to shoot a photo, so the battery was never critically low. 
    After doing a better count, I took about 120 snaps total.  Only about 85 photos seem to have ever entered photo stream, as counted in iPhoto on my Mac.  Roughly the same count of missing photos is seem on my iPad which stayed home the whole time and wasn't involved in this except that it shares my Photostream. 
    Working on the individual photos on my phone, marking them to share in my Photostream STILL does not get them into it!!  So, there are some photos that just will not upload it appears.  Once into iPhoto on my Mac, I cannot see any consistent difference in the size or technical characteristics of the ones that did not upload as compared to the ones that did. 
    I have transferred ALL the photos from this session on my phone by usb cable upload to my Mac, so it's NOT a serious issue at this time.  However, it greatly upsets me that a major part of my photo set did NOT get uploaded to iCloud for backup purposes.  Nor would they have gotten to my Mac where I archive photos if I hadn't taken the time to upload them by cable. 
    I seriously doubt that my Photostream limit was approached as I haven't used my iPhone camera for anything other than an occasional snap or two per week for months.  As I said, I would usually have used a camera for this photo session had I not been caught out with only my phone.  But I only took about 120 photos in this session.  And the missing 30 or so photos are scattered all through the photo shoot from beginning to end!
    So, it's a mystery to me too!  About 20% of the photos I took just never ended up getting to Photostream.

  • Hallo, after upload my iPad air and my iPhone 5 to iOS 8 (and later Mac to Yosemite, version 10.10), I don't find in my iPad air and in my iPhone 5 photos I can see in iPhoto (version 9.6) on my Mac's Cloud.

    hallo, after upload  iPad air and iPhone 5 to iOS 8 (and few days ago Mac to Yosemite, version 10.10), I don't find in my iPad air and in my iPhone 5 photos I can see in iPhoto (version 9.6) on my Mac's Cloud. I tried to add manually from library to iCloud's streaming photo with no result. in iPhoto's events I've 940 photos, in iPhone and iPad about 450. I have in mobile devices only photos taken with iPhone. thank

    There is no warning there, only a recommendation...
    We recommend that you update to the latest version of iPhoto before placing your order,
    On 10.6.8 you can update to 9.2.3.
    You really need to rethink you're computing habits. Using a computer without a back up is like driving without a safety belt. Updating the OS and applications without one is like driving blindfolded and drunk without a safety belt...
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • Mac storage full during upload to iCloud Photo Library

    MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013)
    1.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB
    OS X 10.10.3
    I'm uploading my Photos Library to the iCloud Photo Library because I don't have enough space left in my Mac (around 7 GB left).
    When I started uploading, it went down to 3 GB, and now stopped uploading because Photos is telling me that "Your Mac Storage is full. This Mac is no longer updating because there is not enough space to store optimized versions of your photos and videos."
    I don't understand why it's taking up space when it's supposed to minimize space taken by my library.
    I have upgraded my iCloud Storage to 200GB, so there should be no problem with that (iPhoto Library is only ~120GB)
    Would appreciate any help!

    Hey benjfromlewes. Thanks for helping out!
    Something pretty neat seems to happening when Photos creates its library from iPhotos because my machine didn't have anything like enough storage to achieve this (I had about 15 Gig free, and my iPhotos library was about 100 Gig). I suspect that it Photos probably shares the images files with iPhoto in some way, but I don't know. Anyway – removing the iPhoto library did still fee up lots of space for me.
    I was thinking about deleting the old iPhoto Library, but then (like what you think) it seems that Photos and iPhoto are sharing files, even though they're separate. Because I only had 7 GB left when I updated to Photos and that created ~100 GB library, so it's impossible that I have an invisible extension.
    I can't wait to delete it though, but I think I'll wait until after uploading everything to the cloud--just to be extra sure.
    I'm don't know why Photos increases its storage requirement during the upload phase. Perhaps it has to keep all the original images locally until they are all uploaded, rather than removing the high quality images as it goes along. I've decided to keep the high resolution images locally anyway now: they're useful for printing and such.
    It's working again now, I deleted some movies and restarted. This increased my space to 5.5 GB. I've been monitoring it since and noticed that Photos brought it down to 4 GB, going up and down slightly from there. But it hasn't stopped since. Hoping it'll continue on like this and not require any more space.

  • "all photos" album not including all photos. Causing some photo not to be uploaded to iCloud Photo Library

    After updating to iCloud photo library (iPhone 5, iOS 8.1), if I look at my "photos" tab I see over 700 photos, but in the  'all photos' album I only have 420. This results in only 420 of the photos uploaded to iCloud Photo library and not clearing much space off of my iPhone.

    The FAVOURITES and PANOS albums also sort by date and time too. So all the albums sort by time and day except the ALL PHOTOS album! Seems very strange! What's even odder is that the date range listed at the top of the ALL PHOTOS album would suggest that they are sorted by date!
    Apple I hope you SORT this out soon
