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!

  • 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 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.

  • 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.

  • 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,

    Have you the iPad User Guide? If not, download it from the link under manuals at the start of this forum an tke time to give it a cursory read at the very least.

  • Revel Mac New Photos Not Uploading

    I'm a Revel Premium user. I currently have 668 photos that are not uploading to the Revel cloud from my Mac. The images appear in the previews, but the sync status screen shows 668 photos to upload and it is not changing even after several hours. This has never happened before and I have many thousands of images that have uploaded successfully in the past.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Jay-
    I will send you an email so I can get additional information on this and help you solve it.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • How do I re-download videos which have been uploaded onto iCloud and deleted from my device?

    How do I re-download videos which have been uploaded onto iCloud and deleted from my device?

    Hi yvrtoakl,
    I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear on what you mean by "uploaded onto iCloud". If you are referring to videos synced to iCloud using the new iCloud Photo Library feature, you may find the following article helpful:

    On the other hand, if you are talking about video files that have been stored on iCloud using iCloud Drive, then this article may be of more use:

  • HT204150 microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud?  how do I get it to upload?

    My Microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud.. how do I correct this ?

    I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
    The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
    Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
    but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
    IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
    as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
    This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
    it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
    what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
    something is crazy
    but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

  • I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices?

    I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?

    It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer.  Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results?  If so how do I do this?  Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is?  Very new/green user here
