Shared photo Stream - saved imaged doesn't seem to seemlessly update on all my devices

Hi
I have recently updated both my iphone 5s and my ipad to ios 8
I saved an image from a shared photo stream on my iphone (via the save image button) - on my iphone this is in my recent items and in my photos (collections/years).  This however doesn't seem to stream across to my ipad and I thought it should.  To see it in my ipad photos I have to save it on my ipad too which seems a little crazy.  If I delete this from my iphone, all I get is a delete option, not a delete with the warning that this will also delete from my photo stream, so I am pretty certain this isn't streaming!  I know I could just view this via the share photo stream, but it is a photo I wish to keep forever.   Anywork arounds apart from what I am already doing?
Is this a bug in ios8?  I have never had a problem doing it this way before and always managed to get this in my photo stream before
Thanks so much

  • Shared photo streams no longer updating in iPhoto since Yosemite upgrade

    I just noticed that new photos are not being downloaded to the shared photo streams in iPhoto on my iMac.  I am getting all new photos in my iPhone and iPad... just not on the iMac.
    Anyone encountered this or have any solutions?

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Streams.
    If the above doesn't work this method posted by user  Willis I Am might do the job for you:

    I do not know if anyone ever runs into this issue anymore, but the Apple Engineers helped me fix this recently.
    They had me do the following:
    Turn off Photo Stream in your user account: (second screenshot above)
    Quit iPhoto
    Goto System Preferences > iCloud > Uncheck Photo Stream.l (first screenshot above)
    Close System Preferences
    Then deleting the entire ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/ directory.
    Open Terminal and type in cd Library
    then type open . (open space period)
    navigate to Application Support and delete the iLifeAssetManagement folder.
    quit terminal
    Then turn photo stream back on in their photo library.
    open iPhoto and click on Photo stream in the left column.
    enable photo stream.
    It will take some time to download the cached photos but this resolved my problem of having 0 display and no photos in the "My Photo Stream" area when any of my other devices showed new photo stream photos without any problems.

  • Shared Photo Stream not showing video on Mac

    Hi,
    I can now see videos in my shared Photo Stream using IOS7 so that seems to be working fine. I can also see the video when viewing the public website for the shared Photo Stream. However, for the same shared Photo Stream I cannot see the video on my Mac using iPhoto. Is that supposed to work now too?
    Thanks,

    I am not aware that video is supported - and do not find any documentation saying so - there is documentation updated on Sept 18 saying that it does not - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    Which photo formats does My Photo Stream support?
    My Photo Stream supports JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and most RAW photo formats. My Photo Stream does not work with video.
    Wherer are you seeing that it is supported?
    I do see some editorial material indicating that it is and in those there is no mention o fthe Ma - only IOS 7 and Apple TV version 6
    http://teachmeios.com/apple-introduces-video-sharing-via-photo-stream-in-ios-7-a nd-apple-tv-6-0/
    So I'm not sure how it is suppose tto work but for not it appears that it is not for the Mac based on the limited info I've found

  • Shared Photo Stream Image Order

    Has anyone figured out how to alter the order of a shared photo stream? I added a set of select images to my stream via Aperture and they display out of order on my iPhone/iPad. They also display out of order for those who subscribe to my stream. The order seems randomn - not how I ordered them in Aperture and not ordered by name or time.

    I believe pvonk is correct, at least for now. Very unfortunate.

    For example.  When I share a photo stream with my dad and brother and mother all the photos they are putting in the shared photo stream are taking up space on my iphone!  I'll be out of space in no time at this rate.

  • I have several iCloud shared photo streams . They all download fine into my iPhone, but one doesn't download into my MacBook. Any suggestions?

    I have several iCloud shared photo streams . They all download fine into my iPhone, but one doesn't download into my MacBook. Any suggestions?

    Tried that too over the weekend,I unchecked the Photos option in iCloud preferences in System, let iPhoto do it's thing, then restarted the Mac, and turned iCloud Photos back on again... it looked promising the first hour... but then stopped downloading 20 or so albums. I have over 80 shared albums created over the years.
    Also, the albums it did download, sometimes they're not even complete nor in any particular order.
    I did exactly what you did. It took two days, but slowly all shared streams came back.
    If the photo streams do not reappear, try if removing the content of this folder will help: It contains the photos downloaded from the shared streams. Perhaps one photo is corrupted.
    ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/assets/sub-shared/
    Quit iPhoto
    Move the folder above from your User Library to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

  • Replacing image in shared photo stream

    Is there a way to replace a photo in a shared photo stream and keep the original place in the stream? The only way I can find is to delete it and re-upload, but this will place the photo as the last photo in the stream.

  • HT4906 why doesn't iPhoto shared photo stream update

    I have created a shared phot stream on my IOS devices and they update ok.
    I have invited others and they are allowed to post.
    I can see all posted photo's on all IOS devices.
    I cannot see any phot's posted by oyhers on my Mac in iPhoto.
    iPhoto updates fine when I post from an IOS device but does not when someone else posts.
    Ny ideas how I can see all shared photo's in iPhoto on my Mac the same as all the IOS subscribers

    Are your IOS devices on IOS 7? And have your shared streams been created on IOS 7?
    iPhoto '11 on Mt. Lion is not yet fully compatible with the new Shared Photo Streams format on IOS 7 devices. It does not yet allow two-way sharing of streams. The photos that others add to your shared photo streams are not visible in iPhoto '11. You will have to wait for an iPhoto '11 update, that will bring the full compatibility with the new Photo Steam formats and probably will come with the next MacOS X release Mavericks.

  • Shared Photo Stream Query

    Hi,
    I'm loving the new shared photo-stream in iOS 6.
    Quick query though:
    As an example - Let's say I've created a shared photo stream called 'family' which I've created from 5 photos I want to share with family members.  I created the original shared album 2 days ago.  I have now taken another photo which I want to add to the existing shared album but, having clicked share on the photo it only gives me the option to create a new shared album or add the photo to empty shared photo stream albums I've created.  The shared album I want to add to doesn't show.
    Am I missing something or can you not add further images.  I've seen videos which seem to suggest you can add and subtract from shared photo stream albums but I can't see how.
    Help please!

    I created a shared photo stream for my wife and me to share photos we ake on our iPhones
    I think you are under impression that your wife can share photos, or make changes to your photostream. When IOS 7 comes out this fall that would be an option. At that point in order for her to share pictures with you she HAS  to create and share photostream as well. That is what was missing from your description. That is if I am correct.

  • HT201077 Can I share all my photos with my wife without having to constantly add photos to the shared photo stream?

    My family has an imac where we have a family photo library in iphoto.  The iphoto library is under my wife's profile.  My wife and I each have an iphone 4S.  I'd like all the photos my wife and I take on our iphones to automatically upload to the iphoto library on my wife's imac account.  I've tried a few different ways of doing this and none of them are ideal.
    My current solution works, but has some unwanted side effects.  Currently, my wife and I use the same main icloud account on our iphones.  This would be the perfect solution if it didn't take up the same icloud storage (among other issues). 
    It'd be nice if you could have 2 photo streams linked to the same iphoto library on a mac.  This way both my wife's photo stream and my photo stream would downloand to the same iphoto library.  It doesn't appear that iphoto for mac allows this.
    I realize I could do this the old fashioned way (outside of photo stream).  But, it seems as though there should be a solution that works automatically.
    Could there be a solution creating a shared photo stream on my iphone and sharing this photo stream with my wife?  I've looked into this but can't see how it would work automatically.  It looks like you have to manually add photos to a shared photo stream.  I'd like the shared photo stream to update itself to include all photos I take.
    Does anybody have a simple solution for this problem?

    There is not (yet) an easy solution to use an an iPhoto library with two separate My Photo streams.
    It might be easier to take the family photo library out of your wife's account and move it to a shared location, so boh of you can maintain it, see:
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    This way, both of you could download automatically to My Photo Straem and your private iPhoto Libary, remove the worst pictures, and then export only the best shots to the shared library. This will make the shared library smaller and at the same time create a backup of the best pictures, and it will ensure that your family will never see a potentially embarrassing photo. Sharing My Photo Stream is really dangerous, because each and any picture you take will be added the PhotoStream, before you can delete it.
    As you may have seen at Apple's WWDC keynote presentation the new MacOS X Maverick will bring more sharing options for Photo Streams: Watch the keynote
    You may want to wait for the next software generation before doing any major reorgansition.

  • HT201077 Shared Photo Streams do not upload full sized photos!

    Oh boy, so it seems that Apple's "optimized for your device" policy with photos has reared its ugly head again (PLEASE, just give us an option for optimizing the size or leaving it the original size like you do for compressing songs to 128kps on our devices!!!!)!  The addition of Shared Photo Streams seemed a godsend to me, as prior to iOS 6, my wife's iPhone was stuck in this iCloud ID ghetto, where her device's main account was mine so that we shared the same Photo Stream.  This way, when I went into Aperture on the Mac to process and import photos to our home library, all of our mobile pictures were in one place.  This came with the consequence that the other "main" iCloud features, such as (inexplicably) Safari syncing, were unusable to her as they were from my personal settings.  So once shared Photo Streams came about, I thought "Perfect!  Now I can just share all of my photos to her iCloud ID, and then all of our combined pictures will show up in Aperture!"  The problem is that, when I looked at the pictures on the Mac from the shared photo stream, they only were available at the "optimized" 3 megapixel resolution for iPhone, not the original 8 megapixel pictures are the photos from the main iCloud ID ones are.  This is a huge deal for two reasons, 1.  I can't import and process these pictures for saving permanently they're more than HALF the original resolution, 2. Anyone that I share photos to, friends, family, who want to maybe save those to their computer for printing and whatnot, are ALSO stuck with a halfbaked low resolution file!
    I did have the a-ha idea, that perhaps if I shared photos from Aperture on my mac to my wife's Photo Stream, perhaps it would then share the full resolution photo as that's what Aperture gets from iCloud's servers.  Alas, no, still the shared photo stream only gets the compromised file.  There has GOT to be a way for the full resolution pics to be shared, otherwise the service is nearly useless to me!  As far as I knew, shared photostreams just link to the original files, so it's not like this will take up any more space on Apple's servers.  If someone has a solution, let me know!
    The only other solution is to allow the use of more than one Photostream account on a Mac with Aperture.  I feel that this is a no-brainer, and a little silly.  Either you provide family style iCloud accounts for uses like Photo Stream, or you accept that every iOS user in a family will have their own Photo Stream.  This means that they need to be able to be accessed on the same family computer.

    I have this same issue except with iPhoto.  We each have our own computers and I thought the shared photostream would allow us to each have all the photos, but they aren't full sized. 

  • Shared photo streams don't appear anymore after icloud account change

    Hi guys,
    I've two icloud accounts: account A and account B.
    Some days ago I switched my main icloud account (on my iPhone) from Account A to Account B.
    Today I come back to Account A, and I expected to have again in my iphone all the Shared photo streams I had (both created by me and subscribed).
    Instead in my iphone I cannot find any of my streamed stuff.
    Can you help me to find again my streams?
    Thanks!

    I attach four screenshots Yann - one is the project hierarchy - where you'll see PhotoStream appearing in Recent items, but not under the Web section (where you do see Facebook) and the other the preferences pane for PhotoStream in Aperture showing all three boxes checked.
    Attachments one and two are from my wife's computer - where she's not seeing shared PhotoStreams.
    Attachments three and four are from my computer - we I do see them.
    What I notice when I compare these side by side is that there is a difference in the setting panel for photo stream between the two.  Mine has a fourth option for shared photo streams - my wife's doesn't.
    Yet both s/w versions for Aperture are 3.4.5.  There is a difference in what is listed in the Aperture version after the version number, but both computers are fully up to date with no further updates available.  (Final two images first my wife's then my s/w version)
    Is your view/settings any different?

  • Shared Photo Streams pushed to device over cellular data

    Hi,
    I created today three shared photo streams in iPhoto and all of a sudden my iPhone started getting very hot and battery being drained quickly (it's an oldish 3GS, and the battery level was decreasing even though the iPhone was connected to the charger...).
    In a nutshell: it seems that whilst data from the "ordinary" Photo Stream are uploaded/downloaded only when the device is connected to a wi-fi netwrok, if you have shared Photo Streams enabled on a iOS 6 device, picture data in these photo streams are "pushed" to the device also over cellular data, regardless of any other setting.
    Apart draining the battery very fast, this may lead to using inadvertently a lot of data traffic in your data plan.
    Did anyone notice a similar behavior and find out how to prevent it, apart disabling Shared Photo Streams alltogether, of course, i.e. did anyone find a a way to ensure shared photo streams are pushed to the device only under wi-fi?
    cheers
    -gianpiero

    I suppose you could disable Shared Photo Steam while you are at cellular network and enable it again when you are at a wi-fi environment.   In Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream> turn Shared Photo Stream to Off.
    The pop up warning tells you that this will delete all shared photos from your device.  What it doesn't say is, since shared photo stream remains stored in iCloud, all you shared and shared with you photo streams will be push back to your device once you enable Shared Photo Steam in wi-fi.  The downside of course is if you have a lot of photos in your shared photo steams, it will take some time to download them.  But at least you know for sure your cellular data is not affected.
    Btw, Shared Photo Steams doesn't count towards iCloud storage, just like Photo Steams.  Maybe That's why turning off iCloud document doesn't affect shared photo steams.
