Photos not uploading to iCloud from Photos?

Hi all,
I have recently purchased 200GB worth of storage for iCloud and was hoping to store all my photos on iCloud and see them on all my devices. I thought that it would automatically upload and I knew it would take some time as I have 20,000 pictures but its only upload 1,800 photos from the photos program...
Can anyone help to explain why its done this or how I get all 20,000 up to iCloud?
Thanks
Andy

I have the same problem. Can anyone help? As far as I can tell everything has been enabled.

  • Photos not uploading to iCloud Photo Library from Photos beta

    I have been trying for a couple of weeks now to upload photos from my Mac to the iCloud Photo Library using the new Photos beta. I have about 2,800 photos and the upload process just stalls with about 2,000 photos left to upload.
    I've tried turning the upload on and off and rebuilding the library but nothing works. A couple of times when restarting the upload process I have received this error message:
    Referenced files will not upload to iCloud Photo Library
    Select referenced files in your library and choose “Consolidate” from the File menu to copy the original files into the library.
    So I gather I'm supposed to select a few files and consolidate them, but I have no idea what the "referenced" files are.  Might anyone know?
    thanks!

    We aren't allowed to discuss beta software in this forum according to the hosts. Try the Developers forum.

  • Documents are not uploading to iCloud from Pages

    All software is up to date.  On OSX 10.9.1 I am only having this issue on my MBP.  Documents are uploading to iCloud from my phone just fine.  I had edited a document and it continues to just say "Waiting" and doesnt upload any changes.  I also started a new document and saved it but it will not upload to iCloud, so I can not access it on the phone.  I am not sure if this is a glitch from the most current Pages update.  Is anyone else having this issue?  Is there a fix for this issue?

    Unfortunately neither of those options work.  Last thing I did was reinstall Pages and it is exactly the same.  Unfortunately now it will not appear in the Launchpad and I have to keep it in my dock.  Having such a horrible day with this.  I do not understand why Apple charges us so much for their hardware and then forces us to use things like iCloud, because they restrict the full benefits of things like Dropbox or Skydrive, when they cant have it working properly.  I have read other posts on here with similar issues or even worse off.
    I greatly appreciate your help Winston.  I think I will have to contact Apple now, I am just hoping it ends up being a simple fix.

  • Anyone else noticed that the upload to iCloud from Photos.app takes a very long time?

    I have a Photos library that weight about 60 gig. I have 200 gig on iCloud. Photos have now been sending data  for over 12 hours at a 200 K/sec pace. Has anyone else experienced slow sending? Anyone who has an idea of what I can do? Or maybe it's just a very long way to send images from Sweden to US and back again to my other devices.

    Part of the issue is that Apple's servers are likely under some strain. The other part of it is, how fast is your upload from your ISP? 5Mbps upload is the standard for most Americans, but that only means 625KB/sec maximum.
    Apple appears to be aware of how long large libraries will take to first upload, which is why Photos preferences offers the option to pause the upload for a day. That implies to me that this will take many days to upload completely.

  • Photos not uploading to iCloud Photo Library

    My issue is with iCloud Photo Library on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.3). Works fine for a few days, then gets stuck and won't upload anything to iCloud, which in turn won't show up in the Photos app on my Mac (OS X 10.3.3). Currently it's been stuck on "4 Photos to Upload" for a over a day now. This happened last week as well and I had to shut off iCloud Photo Library and turn back on. It eventually worked, but that was a long painful process because I have 80GB of photos.
    It's not a wifi issue either, and I've rebooted the phone as well. I've been on 2 separate very fast internet connections and only used half the space on my 200 GB iCloud plan. I've edited a few photos with Snapseed and Camera+ using extensions – could it be a corrupt photo using a 3rd party app causing the problem?
    When iCloud Photo Library works, it's great, but this is the 2nd time in 2 weeks to hang during upload. I wish there was a way to refresh it or force it to upload without turning the whole thing off and on. Anyone else having this issue?

    Same here - no upload button for me, too. OS X Lion, Safari 6.1.6. Trying not to take it as personal.

  • Photos not uploading to iCloud photo library from PC

    Hopefully I am not the only person with this problem, but it's driving me round the bend.
    iCloud installed on PC and default folder Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream contains c1,800 photos
    When I got to Favourites\iCloud Photos\My Photostream there are only 5 photos
    When I try to manually add photos in the explorer window Favourites\iCloud Photos\My Photostream it seams to crash or just not update
    When I visit iCloud.com there are only 489 photos and as others have described there is no upload button in the browser interface.
    So in summary it doesn't upload from PC and I cant upload from the browser despite all pictures sitting in the right folder the syncing doesn't appear to work.
    Please, Please help!! :-)

  • Photos not uploaded to Revel from PSE12

    So far I had no problems uploading Photos to Revel. I have a free account and the Revel Status says that I can still upload 49 photos.
    My Data:
    My PSE12 is on WIN7. I uploaded my complete PSE12 catalogue.
    Problem:
    Last week I added 30 photos. They still do not appear in Revel, though they are marked in PSE as Revel. When right clicking on those photos "Remove from Revel" (actually the text was in German and I am translating for thei discussion) is greyed out.
    Over the last weeks I found duplicate photos in my catalog and currently I am deleting these duplicates from the catalog. My mobile device shows the according decrease in the number of photos in my Revel library.
    The Revel-Agent status still shows about 88 to 107 pending updates to the Revel library. The number is higher when I am actively deleting photos, but it never (over the last week) goes below about 90 pending updates, though I restarted the computer daily.
    Is there a lock in the library? How can I get around this problem?

    Viashali,
    thanks for looking into this. I was already at PSE 12.1.
    Elements Organizer 12.0.0.0
    Core-Version: 12.1 (20140303.12.1.49334)
    Sprachversion: 12.0 (20130925.r.43436)
    How can we start a connect session, find a date/time?
    Thanks, Joachim

  • Photos not current in iCloud from iPhone

    I thought that photos from my iPhone should sync to my iCloud when connected to wifi.  I just checked and they haven't since January 3rd.  My phone is connected to wifi every day.  What do I need to do so it syncs to my iCloud?

    What iOS?
    Are you using Photo Library?

  • I have added photos to My Photo Stream on my PC (Windows 7). They appear in the Uploads folder instead. They do not upload to iCloud. Am I doing something wrong?

    I have added photos to My Photo Stream on my PC (Windows 7). They appear in the Uploads folder instead. They do not upload to iCloud. Am I doing something wrong?

    Unfortunately, photo stream on a PC is iffy at best.  Many people have problems getting it to work properly, including myself.  A work around would be to use an app like PhotoSync on your PC, which can send photos wirelessly to the camera roll on any of your iOS devices on the same wifi network.  Once in the camera roll, you iOS device will be added to your photo stream.

  • Photos not uploading.

    Installed 10.10.3, launched Photos.  Turned on iCloud Photo Library.
    It's not uploading.  I have photos in iCloud, but I have many more photos on my Mac that are not in iCloud, and they're simply not uploading.
    Photos Preferences says it's "Updating..." but nothing is uploading.
    Is there any way to figure out what's going on here?

    I have similar problems - 42,000 pictures to upload to iCloud (my laptop iPhoto library). Strictly though (at least for me) it's not that it's NOT uploading, it's just horrendously slow. I've had it running for the past 36 hours and its barely made a dent. At a rough estimate I'd say it's uploading around 1 photo a minute - so at this pace I 'might' be finished in a month of solid uploading.
    I really hope this gets fixed. I had this problem with the iPhoto beta too and had to abandon it. The iCloud photo library feature is about the only apple update of late that I've been really hoping for - but in it's current release it's just unusable.

  • Why do my photos not appear in icloud?

    None of my photos appear in my icloud. When I open up the icloud on my PC, there isn't even a menu choice for photos.  I have the Photos option selected on both my iPhone and iPad, but the photos never upload to iCloud.  I am connected to WiFi as well.

    Hi Vwgirl18,
    It sounds like there should be an option to enable Photo Stream on your PC.
    iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    PC:
    Open the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and select the checkbox for Photos (or Photo Stream in iCloud Control Panel 2.x).
    Click the Options button and make sure that My Photo Stream is on and adjust the settings.
    Click Apply when you're done.
    Further down it discusses how to view them:
    How do I view My Photo Stream?
    PC using Windows 8.1: From the Start screen, click the down arrow in the lower-left corner, then click the iCloud Photos app.
    PC using Windows 8: From the Start screen, select iCloud Photos (or Photo Stream in iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.12).
    PC using Windows 7: Click the Windows Start button, then click Pictures. Click iCloud Photos or Photo Stream under the Favorites menu in the panel on the left. Double-click My Photo Stream to view your photos.
    Take care,

  • With the new update of iphoto I can not upload more than 10 photos to Facebook

    with the new update of iphoto I can not upload more than 10 photos to Facebook, I can do

    I have the same problem. Why am I now only limited to 10 photos to share in Facebook thru my Iphoto in ipad? Also, i cannot create an album when sharing photos thru Iphoto in ipad. I used to be able to do this. I don't want to upload all my photos in IOS album.  Was this feature removed from the Iphoto?

  • Photos 1.0 not showing all images from Photos Library.photoslibrary folder/file after update install

    I installed the update that changed my iPhoto to Photos 1.0, and the new Photos program is not showing all images from Photos Library.photoslibrary file/folder (not sure to call it file or folder since it is actually a folder with all my pics but it acts more like a file) after update install.  The Photos Library.photoslibrary file/folder shows to be 55 gb in size, and it shows to be loaded into the photos program, but there are maybe a few weeks of pictures showing instead of a few years.  Lots of pictures in the 55 gb are not showing for some reason. 

    No - iPhotos has not replaced anything - it is new and an addition - iPhoto is still on your system in the applications folder and still works just fine
    Outlook is not supported by Photos - not sure if the support must come form Apple or MS as Photos uses a different interface to external packages than iphoto did

  • List/Report of employees whose photos not uploaded

    Hi Friends
    We have uploaded employee photos in SAP, but few employee photos are missing.  Do we have some option to find list of employees whose photos not uploaded.
    Please help
    Thanks and regards
    Surya

    Hi Surya,
    You may have to write a custom report using FM "HR_IMAGE_EXISTS".
    -> For each employee check if image exist using FM "HR_IMAGE_EXISTS"
    -> If the FM does not return any output then that employee does not have any photo uploaded.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!

  • I've just upgraded my iPhone 5 with iOS 7. I have the problem that I can not send a photo as a iMessage directly from Photo application. Does anybody know something about that? Thanks!

    I've just upgraded my iPhone 5 with new iOS 7. I noticed that i cannot send a photo as a iMessage directly from Photo application as I could while was on iOS 6. Anybody knows something about this?

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
    Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
    All of your help is much appreciated, thanks
