Sequencing of photos when streaming to iCloud

HI All
I recently streamed a project to icloud from aperture.
I altered the order of photos in my Aperture project workflow (i.e. from the original chronological as taken). Having seen stories of streamed photo sequencing in icloud reverting to the original chronological, I then updated the metadata time of the affected photos (via metadata / adjust date and time (applying to originals as well)) to make sure the order of my photos in Aperture was now a forced "chronological", and would stream in that order.
However, when I streamed to icloud, my photos revert in the original order I took them.
I tried re starting aperture / rebooting, and even exported versions in the right and order and reimported them.....but it always reverts to the original chronological order.
Any idea what I am doing wrong ?
Many thanks
Paul

I have set up a new photo stream (i.e. I have highlighted the photos in my project, and gone to share > icloud > new photo stream)
Then you created a new "Shared" photo stream. This stream should order the photos you add in exactly the order you add them to the stream - I always add them one by one - if I select more than one photo at a time, the results appear to be random.
It should not matter if you created the stream yourself or someone else set it up.
The time stamp will matter in "my Photo Stream", not in a Shared Stream.
"Metadata > Adjust Date and Time" should change the the EXIF date, if you use the option to apply the changes to the original image file.

How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud?

How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud? Thank you.

Look, there are a million threads on this already.
The facts are:
1) you can't delete individuals photos from Photostream. Simple as that.
2) if you want to delete all the photos, then switch PS off on all your devices (including iPhoto), go to iCloud.com, click on your name, go to advanced settings and reset PS. They will be gone from all your devices and iCloud.
3) switch PS back on in all the same devices.
Let's hope this is sorted out in the near future.

How can I recover photos that were deleted from Iphone. Photos were streamed to icloud

Songs skip when streaming from iCloud

This problem occurs consistently. The track will skip as soon as it is fully loaded.
To explain clearly:
When you start a track which is not stored locally it "streams" from iCloud. (More like it is downloaded and stored temporarily than actual streaming.) As it starts it plays and downloads simultaneously. The progress bar fills light grey as the track downloads. It also fills dark grey as the track plays (also marked by a small diamond). As soon as the progress bar fills light grey indicating it is fully downloaded it skips to the next track where the process repeats.
This not happen with all tracks but it occurs with the majority of tracks.

Hello, Calandria
Is error correction enabled? (iTunes Preferences/Importing/Use Error Correction ... on my machine)
Another possibility, of course, would be that the CD was produced with a Windows-capable scheme to prevent copying the songs. Can't really help you if that's the case, though.
Good luck

Photos not sharing on iCloud

I cannot share via iCloud. I get drop down menu click iCloud sharing add recipients but nobody gets them. Also I have no options in Photos when I click iCloud and this appears with no options
ICloud is only available through system photo library

Finally found the right solution and changed the "photo system library" to the one that has all photos.

I do not see a Photo streaming icon when I open iCloud. What would cause that?

The cloud icon means you've already downloaded those Apps in the past and they are in your purchased history.
For payed apps this would allow you to redownload them without having to pay again.
Just tap on the cloud icon to start the download.

After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there...

Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

Can't share photos using shared Photo Stream with iCloud Control Panel for Windows

BACKSTORY: My friend took pictures of my family. I want to see the pictures he took. We live about 2.5 hours apart by car. Gas prices are too high for me to just drive down with an external hard drive to get the pictures and I might as well throw my money out the window if I were to ship him a hard drive and he ship it back. SO. I ask him if he would share photos with me and he quickly agreed. He added me to a Photo Stream he has. ok cool. I recieve the invitation email just fine but this is the error I get when I click on the link:
ERROR MESSAGE:
Photo Stream
Follow these steps to join a shared photo stream
1.Make sure you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 6 or a Mac running OS X 10.8.2 withiPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later installed.
2. Sign in to iCloud on your devices.
3. Open the invitation email on an updated device and tap the Join this Photo Stream button.
WHAT I NEED:
How can I view shared photo streams using iCloud Windows control panel 2.1.2.0? How can I work around this error message? I don't own any of these products that apple wants me to own in order to view these photos! I don't have the cash to go out and purchase them. What can I do to get "my" photos? Do I have to be signed into my friends apple id to see the shared photos?
What I've tried:
I already have the icloud control panel installed and updated to the latest version.
I'm signed into iCloud on the control panel. (no apple id password issues)
I have photo stream checked.
I have my photo stream checked
I have shared photo stream checked.
I have tried copying and pasting the link into the address bars of Safari for Windows, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox respectively and pressing enter to load. all present the same error message.
I visited iCloud.com to see if there was anywhere to access the shared photo stream there... No option exisits
Checked my photo stream folder in windows explorer. it's completely empty. I haven't put any of my own photos there so nothings missing per se... I just can't see my friends shared photos.
MY SET UP:
Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
4gb of RAM
iCloud control panel version 2.1.2.0
I don't own any version of Outlook, (if that matters. I doubt that it matters at all in this case.)
I don't have any iOS Devices or a mac capable of 10.8. My MacBook is stuck at 10.6.8. It's a late mid 2008 just before the aluminum unibody computers came out. If I had only waited another month... sigh. Murphy's Law is alive and well.
any sugestions, especially correct answers, are welcome. please help me figure this out. Thanks in advance.

Hello desert_dweller5,
It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account. The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article:
Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:

Photo Stream (via iCloud) is no longer working on PC -- w/o system changes

Photo Stream (via iCloud) worked great on my Windows PC a week ago. Suddenly it's stopped entirely. When I attempt to open it, I get an error message that says that "Photo Stream is not enabled" and that I should go to the iCloud Control Panel. When I go to the Control Panel to initiate the change, I can put a check mark in the box to activate it, but it will not retain the change when I hit apply/save. It also disables Windows Explorer when I do this.
I don't believe this is an IOS6 issue since it was working fine for a period of time after I put IOS6 on both my iPhone and iPad devices. I've also not made any changes to the Windows laptop involved.
Is anyone else having this problem. Any suggestions on how to resolve it?

After upgrading to iOS 8.1, upgrading to the latest iTunes and re-installing iCloud for Windows, Photo Stream is working again!

Photo Stream on iCloud not working

Hi,
Here's the facts...please help.
1. iPhone 4S just backed up to iCloud...took 3 hours.
2. All settings are in "ON" position for: Photo Stream and iCloud between all my devices, including "automatic uploads"
3. NOTHING shows up in Photo stream...on any devices (iPad 3, and iPhone 4S)
4. iPhone 4S shows 2.2GB backed up on iCloud
5. iPad 3 shows 64.1MB backed up.
6. Attempted to back up iPad 3 numerous times, via WiFi...which I'm always on...it took 30 sec...nothing transfered.
To put it lightly...I'M ******. I've been trying to get my photos and videos from my iPhone 4S onto my iPad 3 and it's failing miserabally every stinking time. Here my words when I say EVERYTHING is in the "ON" position for iCloud file transfers between my iOS devices. The only thing I haven't tried is putting in my Apple email ID for the sharing option. By my estimation that should be irrelevent. I'm going to sleep on this now, cause I'm on the brink of stress, and I don't want that. Hopefully I wake up tomorrow with some help. Thanks.
-Paul

Yeah...after reading numerous threads I discovered this disturbing solution. It's beyond me as to why settings have to be "reset" in order to work properly. As I've stated in another thread....my iPhone and iPad have had iCloud device sharing set to "ON" since the day I walked out of the Apple store with my product. Completely unacceptable on Apple's behalf. If it's "ON" it should work...no questions asked.
Thanks for the response.

Trouble accepting invitation to a photo stream on iCloud for PC

My father used to have an iPhone so he has a valid Apple ID already. He still wants to be able to be a part of the photo streams my family is creating and showing nowadays. We downloaded iCloud Control Panel for his Windows 8 laptop and all of the photo streams he was previously subscribed to show up. However, when I sent him an invite to the newest photo stream we can't figure out how to join it. When we click the "subscribe" button in the email he receives it pulls up a new page that says "To subscribe to...photo stream on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, open your invitation in the Mail app, and click the Subscribe button in the message.", nothing about how to subscribe on PC. We could really use some help! We need to know how to subscribe to a photo stream on iCloud for a Windows 8 PC.
Thanks!
