Shared photo stream option missing iphoto 11

In Iphoto / preferences there is a missing option to check
Shared photo streams.
Iphoto 11 - upgrade
OSX 10.7.5
Anyone know how to resolve ?

Upgrade your OS - shared PhotoStream requires OS X version 10.8.2 or later and iPhoto '11 version 9.4 or newer and IOS 6.0 or later
What do I need to use Photo Stream?
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
Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later

  • Aperture 3.4.3 - shared photo stream option missing

    Shared Photo Stream option missing from Preferences in Aperture 3.4.3.  When I move photos over to "Shared Photo Stream" under Recents, it seems to import the images, but I'm not sure where they're going....i.e. I never specified a Shared Photo Stream name to associate them with.  Thoughts?  I'm running 10.7.5.

    Where do you see "Shared Photo Stream" under "Recent"?
    The Photo Streams are supposed to appear in the "Web" section of the library, not in the "Recent" section. Are you seeing a recent project there, accidentally named "Shared Photo Stream"? Then you are dragging your images to a project, and not to a stream.
    Look in the "Web" section of the Library inspector for "Photo Stream". If the stream is hidden, hover with the mouse to the far right of the title "WEB", until the word "Show" appears.
    Selecting a stream and opening should make the "PhotoStream" button appear in the footer of the window.

  • Shared Photo Stream Option Missing

    I just downloaded iOS6 on my iPhone 4 (not 4S).  In settings->photos & camera THERE IS NO OPTION FOR ENABLING SHARED PHOTO STREAMS.  There is only the standard option (which is "ON") for enabling "My Photo Stream".
    Is this feature limited to the 4S?
    Is this feature limited by location?  I AM LOCATED IN CHINA - China Unicom is my service provider (official provider and reseller of the iPhone here).
    Thanks,
    Summer

    So, I got it working, but I'm not 100% sure what resolved the problem.  They key is that apparently there are updated "iCloud terms of service", and you need to read and accept those before this feature will "appear".  For some reason during the install it didn't ask me to review and accept updated iCloud terms of service.
    But how to get the iCloud terms of service to show up?  I have no idea.  I can say I turned photo stream (the basic service) on / off a couple of times, and I turned my network connection on / off a couple of times.  I was just fiddling around, basically, and suddenly I saw a message saying "iCloud terms of service have changed", and then it displayed a new terms of service, and after I accepted them the option for shared photo streams appeared.
    The exact same thing happened on my iPad (3rd gen), which I just updated today as well.  Weird.
    Just for the record, I am now left with A DIFFERENT problem - iMessage and FaceTime will not activate.  But that's a topic for another thread, I think.

  • Shared photo stream option not shown in settings

    i downloaded ios 6 in around the first hour that it was launched and i cannot find the menu that can turn on shared photo streams. i have a 4th gen ipod touch. i looked in the settings under the photos and camera menu as well as the share button on a picture in my camera roll, and it is not there.

    I just figured the solution out! It worked for me..
    The iCloud terms of use has changed, so this option is disappeared. You have to agree with the new terms.
    So delete the icloud from your iDevice and, add it again.
    Hope it work 4 u..

  • I don't have "Photo Stream" option in iPhoto Preferences

    I am trying to get photo stream on my iPhoto on my Mac so I can see pictures from my iPhone 4S.  However, when I look up instructions to do so they always mention the Photo Stream tab in the iPhoto Preferences.  Mine doesn't have that.  This is what mine looks like, and I verified I have the latest
    iPhoto version, which is 9.2.3.  We have an iCloud account, and on my iPhone I have a Photo Stream folder.  How do I get photo streaming on my Mac?
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thank you.

    In the system preferences for iCloud set it up then in iPhoto turn on PS
    genera instructions along with software requirements for different features are here - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

  • What has happened to the export from Photo Stream option in iPhoto?

    Until very recently I was able to export items from Photo Stream in iPhoto my Mac. Abruptly this option seems to have disappeared, and is now greyed out. Anyone got any idea why? Thanks in anticipation?

    The borders and themes have been discontinued.
    If you want them back, send a feature request to Apple:

  • HT201077 When trying to select a new shared photo stream album, my iPhoto directs me to the Trash album.  Not sure what to do.

    My iPhoto is redirecting me to the Trash album instead of opening a friend's shared iCloud (Photo Stream) album.  Not sure what to do.

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.

  • I recently changed my apple id after closing an old yahoo email account. Now all of my shared photo streams are missing. Is there a way to get them back? One in particular was all photos of my first baby, my 8 month old daughter :(

    Please help!

    OK, so a couple of things:
    Did you delete the iCloud account and re-add it with the updated AppleID? If not, then do so.
    Also, try resetting the iPad - hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them until the Silver Apple appears. Then recheck your photostream.

  • How can I subscribe to a Shared Photo Stream from iPhoto 9.4 on OSX 10.7.5 ?

    I just updated to iPhoto 9.4 on both my (just updated) OSX 10.8.2 MacBook Pro and my OSX 10.7.5 Mac mini.
    For some mysterious reason Apple specifies that I can not subscribe to the new "Shared Photo Streams" from my OSX 10.7.5 Mac mini.
    How could that be ?
    How can I get around this ?
    How can it be that Apple claims that 'Shared Photo Streams' can be shared to all my other devices, but it turns out that my major photo-database can't, even though it has a brand new version of last year's OSX running... ???!!!
    This can't be a software issue...
    because if that were the case Apple would be deliberately cutting off users of last year's operating system... (...I even think there is a law prohibiting that...)
    so... can anyone tell me what the exact piece of hardware is that I am missing ?
    or has anyone found a solution for this yet ?
    Thanks !

    The only hardware that's preventing me from upgrading to 10.8 "Mountain Lion" would be the fact that a Mid-2007 Mac mini doesn't have a separate graphics card...
    ...as all other hardware-components ar similar to the iMac Mid 2007... :
    - at least 2GB of PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM RAM
    - a 64-bit Intel Core 2 Duo "Merom" processor
    - a WiFi-N compatible AirPort-card (I've upgraded the one in my Mac mini to an Atheros AR-9280...)
    - OSX 10.6.8 or later installed (I have OSX 10.7.5)
    - iPhoto 9.4
    ...so the only spec I not meeting hardware-wise is the fact that my Mac mini has a GMA950 shared graphics card...
    but surely... that can not be the reason I can't subscribe to a Photo Stream...
    why would that have anything to do with eachother ???!!!
    [ I've even seen claims of tricked OSX 10.8 installers for the Mid-2007 Mac mini, so if that's my only option... ]

  • I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • Shared photo stream from others not showing my own posted photos in iPhoto

    Hi community,
    I'm facing a problem I'm not sure if it might have been answered somewhere before but if so I cannot find it..
    My wife opened a shared photo stream with her iPhone and invited me to it. Since then, we both post new pictures to it and it syncs perfectly (at least it seems like) on our iOS devices, her iPhone, my iPhone and iPad. We're running iOS 7 on all devices.
    The problem is that I cannot see any of my pictures in that stream on my MacBook in iPhoto 9.4.3. In streams I created it works fine and it's a comfortable way to get photos from iPhone to Mac without having to connect with a cable. But the mentioned stream my wife created contains only her pictures in iPhoto. I'm running Mountain Lion. (Since Mavericks doesn't seem to bring any new features I need and usually new OS X versions seem to slow down the computer I don't want to update.)
    Does anybody know how to fix?
    Thanks in advance
    Rob

    general info is here - http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/photo-stream/
    I'm totally clear on what your issues is - but I believe that the feature that Mavericks has that yu are missing is full support for shared photo streams
    What software versions do I need to be able view and share videos, and contribute to other people's shared streams?
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 7.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later and either iPhoto 9.5 or Aperture 3.5
    Apple TV (second generation) with Apple TV software 6.0 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or later and iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later
    If the owner of the shared stream has turned on the Public Website option and shares the link with you, you can use any up-to-date browser to see photos and videos added by the owner and all contributors.
    And I found that Macvericks is much faster - the 64 bit software seems to be a big improvement

  • ICloud iPhoto journals vs Shared Photo stream

    In iPhoto (for iOs Only) you can create photo journals and publish them on iCloud. This is very similar to shared photo streams. However Journals give you quite a few layout options which lack for photo stream. On the other hand shared photo stream are available also on iPhoto and Aperture for OsX. Am I missing something or these two feature should be merged ?

    No but there is an edit button which you select and then tap multiple photos.

  • Shared photo streams in iPhoto and Apple TV

    Why is this proving so difficult for Apple to get right?
    All I want to do is create private albums that I can share with family and have them sync back to my Mac so that all I need to do is organise my photos ONCE (i.e. on iPhone or iPad) and see these albums in iPhoto where they are also backed up locally.
    I've created a shared photo stream album, shared it with my wife... she can see it on her phone... great.
    I look in my iPhoto and there is no sign whatsoever that I've ever created a shared album. Just the main photo stream mess as usual.
    Also, I go to my Apple TV and the same thing, just the same "every photo ever" mess.
    I've recently taken to using Vimeo because this provides exactly what I need for home video. Create edited video in iMovie for iPad or Mac, then upload it to Vimeo, and share it only with family. I can then view them back on Mac, Apple TV, iPad etc.

  • No shared photo stream on iPhoto '11

    Hi! I have been trying to create a shared photo stream from iPhoto on mi iMac, but there is no option to do so, I only get my photo stream. I searched Apple support and supposedly under preferences/photo stream there should be a checkbox to enable the shared photo stream, but I only get three check boxes: "Enable Photo Stream", "Automatic Import" and "Automatic Upload", nothing about the shared photo stream. I have the latest version of iPhoto '11 (9.4.2). Any ideas on how to make it work? Thanks!
    Cesar

    Shared Photo Streams require 10.8.2 or later.

  • When I switch on Photo Stream I don't see an option to switch on shared photo stream

    I am wanting to share an album from iphoto on my Mac (I have Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5) but when I switch on Photo Stream, I am not getting an option to switch on Shared Photo Stream.  Consequently, when I share the photos I've selected from the album to photo stream, I don't get asked for the email addresses of the people with whom I want to share the photos.  Any suggestions?

    this is my problem....I have OS X Mountain Lion v 10.7.5 ie not v 10.8.2 or later...
    That's your problem. You have 10.7.5 -  which is Lion.
    You need to upgrade your OS to 10.8 - which is Mountain Lion.
