Photostream and iPhoto automatic download?

Apple Pals:
I have iPhoto set up to download my photostream from my iPhone camera. It also duplicates the photos and puts them in an event. Good. Now, the question is, does anybody know if the photos are downloaded even if iPhoto is not run for months?

It will download if the Mac is running and connected to the internet. iPhoto doesn't need to be running.

I was syncing my phone and it automatically downloaded iOS6. Now I can't do anything, as I don't remember my password. What do I do? I have no phone, no access to anything.

Help! I was syncing my phone and it automatically downloaded IOS6. Now I can't access my applications, can't use my phone, can't do anything as I don't remember my password. I can't even get my password!

Double tap with 3 fingers. You've accidentally enabled the zoom feature. You can then turn it off: Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom

Image Capture and iPhoto automatically launch...

Hi:
I am using OS X Yosemite. Whenever I connect a camera to my computer, iPhoto automatically launches. Since I don't use iPhoto, I have to close it before I can download my photos to Adobe Lightroom. in iPhoto—> Preferences—> General I have it set to "Connecting Camera opens: No application" But iPhoto launches anyway. How can I make it stop?
Whenever I connect an iOS device to my computer, the app Image Capture launches. I don't need this to happen either. How can I make it stop?
Thanks!
Janet

Open image caputre. Plug in the device. Select the device in the list. Open the icon at the bottom of the window and set the device to open no application or choose the application you want it to open.
Repeat for all devices you plug in to that computer.

Do Aperture and iPhoto automatically merge in 3.3?

Because I would really like to keep them separate.
I like to use Aperture for editing and then when I am finished I select a few favourite shots and store them in iPhoto and use it as a sort of quick portfolio if I ever want to look over my favbourite work.
Will upgrading force them to merge or can I continue to keep them separately so I don't have to wade through all the edited files to get to the few I want to show off?
Chris

Because I would really like to keep them separate.
No, the libraries will not merge automatically. But they are now compatible. You can open each iPhoto or Aperture Library in the other Application and work with it. The edits will be seen by the other Application, if you switch to the other one. But you still can keep separate libraries for Aperture and iPhoto. They will not be merged unless you import your iPhoto Libraries into the apertre Library.
This is true for Aperture 3.3. and iPhoto 9.3 and later. You need MacOS 10.7.4 or later.

IMovie and iPhoto full download over and over again

I have this strange bug, iMovie and iPhoto will for no reason auto download over and over and over, in the screenshot below you can see I have to identical download of iMovie; when they were downloading I can see they are the same file size 1.94GB.
I have 2 App Store accounts, so I thought maybe App Store got confused and tried to give me 2 copies, some bug like that, but nope, today iMovie almost completely downloaded again, it was over half done when I saw and stopped it. iPhoto too tried to download again as well. They started download when I was doing the iTunes 11.1.3 update, so after I signed into my Apple ID.
Additional info, iMovie and iPhoto is not listed in the Available Updates page, I have cleared it from my Purchased page and don't see them there.
On the screenshot below, please disregard the Error Occured and the Apps folder being stuck with the download bar, those cleared after a reboot, my problem is with repeated mystery download of iMovie and iPhoto. Is there a way to stop this?

Try removing the iMovie and iPhoto apps from your Applications folder. (You might save them elsewhere, but if it were me, I would simply move them to trash and not empty the trash yet.)
Then hopefully you can find them again under the App Store "Purchased" tab with a "Download" prompt next to them, and/or on the "Updates" tab.

Photostream and iphoto

I can't seem to get Iphoto hooked up, keeps asking me for a MobilMe account which I never activated.

1.) So if I use Photostream with iPhoto it will just make the last imported photos available through iCloud?
2.) Is there a way to use my iPad to access photos in iPhoto over my WiFi network?
Thanks.

How do I set up iPhoto '11 version 9.2.1 to send emails with medium/Large/actual size? I try sending photos to a publisher and iPhoto automatically shrinks them to about 40 kB. Publisher needs between 0.5 and 7 MB. My ISP has a limit of 12MB

How can I get to email photos at higher resolution?
My "iPhoto" or "Mail" automatically reduces photos to about 40 KB .
My photos, taken with a common Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ20 include flora which I send to a publisher.
I am fairly new to my MacBook (Mac S X Version 10.6.8). I have been using it for a year.
I found I could not successfully send Large or Full size photos.
A few days ago I downloaded a new version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11 version 9.2.1).
Again, although I get the option of choosing to send small/medium/large//full size photos, it actually only sends them as "Small" (ie about 40kb) which is useless to publish. If I drag a picture onto the desktop (where my EXIF tells me it is full size) then attach it to an email by dragging, againg the sent email is at "small" size ~40KB).
My ISP (Westnet) tells me that their maximum accepted size is 12 MB.
I suspect that I have failed to set up iPhoto for this purpose. (I am well into retirement but, although geriatric, did study University Physics about half a century ago)

Does iphoto automatically download facebook albums?

*** you can skip the next paragraph***
I've been scanning, sorting and uploading family photos over the past few days and I'm finding iPhoto's integration with various web services ennerving.
First, hundreds of megabytes of photos started uploading to photostream, seemingly at full quality, I stopped the process after about 300MB had been uploaded. The behaviour of uploading full quality photos to Photostream is ********! Some of the photos were about 10MB each...
Anyway I found the setting for that and disabled it, it's in the PhotoStream preference tab.
Now I noticed that after uploading an album to Facebook with the share feature, iPhoto didn't want to let me change anything locally without changing it on Facebook too. So some photos that were mainly of friends of the family, that I wanted to delete locally, because it's no one I really care about, but keep on facebook, but iPhoto wanted to remove them from Facebook too! And the opposite problem, some photos (rare) are somewhat inapropriate for Facebook, whether it being me naked at 1 year old or throwing up all over the place (examples, not necessarily my situation), but I can't choose to omit any photos from my albums for sharing on facebook either, it wants the whole album or nothing at all. What the ****.
Now I thought I was being smart by exporting a bunch of photos to file and manually uploading them to facebook, thus avoiding all these sync. problems I just described. But as soon as the album was manually uploaded, iPhoto decides to download all those photos from Facebook to synchronize my computer to facebook 100%. What the f#&^?! That's exactly what I wanted to get around. And now I have duplicates of a 100+ photo album and my only option is to revert to sharing it from iPhoto, thus uploading all the **** photos again and losing all control.
Is there any way around this? I suppose I could just disconnect facebook from my iPhoto...

When I use iPhoto for iOS to share to Facebook I first get a chance to share one photo or select several.
Then I see a choice to upload to an album, usually Wall Photos, but there in only that one album visible.
Tap on that album and more choices come up. These include, eventually, all of my albums. I can then choose the album to which I want to upload the photo(s).

ICloud/PhotoStream and iPhoto Events

I was surprised to find that Photo Stream via iCloud doesn't sync Events or Albums from iPhoto. With Mobile Me Gallery It was possible to publish individual Events and Albums. Is there a way to configure Photo Stream to upload Events and Album? The way it works now I have to regroup the photos on my iOS device?

If I do so, will I be able to see all my MacBook iPhoto progress (places, faces, events, etc) on the iPad app ?
just some notes in addition to Ralphs answer: Your iPad is very useful to browse and show off your photos, i.e. the Retina iPad. You can sync to the iPad via iTunes or using the Photo Stream or a shared Photo Stream. But if you can browse and store all your photos on the iPad, will depend on the available storage on your iPad. Using iTunes you can sync events, albums, faces stacks, places stacks to your iPad. Not many metadata tags will transfer however.
See the iPhoto help on what iPhoto can actually do:

IPhone 4s and iPhoto question

I downloaded iPhoto to my iPhone 4S and it automatically downloaded all of my photos through the Cloud to my phone. I think all of my photos are duplicated between iPhoto and the Photo default app that came with the phone. What is the advantage of iPhoto on my phone? If I chose to remove it to free up space on my phone, will my photos be safe on my computer and my Photo app?
In relation to this. Before iTunes upgraded to the latest version, I would plug my phone in and set the sync settings for my iPhoto on my Mac to Photo folder on my phone through iTunes. Where are those preferences located now???
Thanks!

IPhone will not sync iTunes and iPhoto

Just bought an iPhone a couple weeks ago. No problems transferring (sync) iTunes and iPhoto (and everything else) on day 1. Now looking to sync a second time and no luck. When I connect iPhone to my MacBookPro, iTunes and iPhoto automatically open but no sync. And under File >> in iTunes, there is no option to sync iPhone. I have tried restarting computer, restarting iPhone, trying both ISB ports on the computer (the basic troubleshooting in the manual). Again, iTunes and iPhoto open automatically as if it wants to sync, but does not. Any suggestions ? Sorry if this is a common problem. I could not find it with a cursory search. Thanks.

Try downloading the current iTunes version and re-install it over the existing. No need to delete iTunes on your computer first.

Automatically download Album Art

Hi,
Is it possible to get iTunes to automatically download album art when a song is loaded and played?
I have my cd collection ripped but the album art doesn't come up for them.

You can set iTunes to download artwork from the iTunes Music Store. Go to iTunes>Preferences>General and enable "Automatically download missing album artwork". If the iTunes Store doesn't have the album you want the artwork for you can locate and add some yourself:
iTunes 7 for Mac - Adding artwork to songs and other items
iTunes: How to Add Artwork to Songs
If you have a look on the Apple downloads page you can find programs for the Mac that help locate and add album artwork. This is one I came across with a quick search of the site: Album Cover Finder 6.0
I have found this site is a useful resource for finding artwork to manually download: CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio

HT204266 iPad mini - Automatic Downloads

I have iPad mini and iOS is 7.1. I'm facing serious problem with automatic downloads of apps. Despite of disabling / deactivating auto downloads from Settings > iTunes & App Store, problems persists. Please advise / suggest.

It's hard to answer you because you only say "problems persists" and have not told us exactly what the problems are.
But my guess is you are affected by background app refresh, and not automatic downloads. Try Settings > General> Background App Refresh = "Off"

HT201077 I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
