Shared Photo Streams not appearing in iPhoto.

I have a few Photo Streams that were recently shared with me. I can access them fine on my iPhone. When I am on my MacBook Air however, these Photo Stream folders are no where to be found.
I followed this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3989 and more specifically double checked these instructions:
I don't see any photos or shared photo streams in the Photo Stream view of iPhoto or Aperture.
Check the following:
From your Mac, choose System Preferences > iCloud, and make sure the Photo Stream checkbox is enabled.
Open iPhoto or Aperture, choose Preferences > Photo Stream.
If you are using iPhoto 9.4 or later, or Aperture 3.4 or later, make sure that both the My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams checkboxes are selected. If you'd like all new photos that you've uploaded to your iPhoto or Aperture library to be uploaded to My Photo Stream, make sure that the Automatic Upload checkbox is selected as well.
If you are using iPhoto 9.2.2 through 9.3.2, or Aperture 3.2.3 through 3.3.2, make sure that Enable Photo Stream and Automatic Import are selected.
               Make sure your Mac has an an active Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.
Everything was set up as suggested above.
My Macbook is on iPhoto 9.2.3, with OS 10.7.5
My iPhone is on 6.1.3
Additionally, when i view photos from a shared photo stream folder on my phone and then select to save one of the photos to my Camera roll, the photo is still not syncing to my Photo stream on the Mac.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Larry,
Having a similar issue as the one described by kmacd...  I'm trying to set up Shared Photo Streams between my MacBook Pro (Late 2009 13") and my iPhone 4, to essentially use them as streaming albums.  Both devices are set up with iCloud with the same account, and both have all settings enabled for Shared Photo Streams, as I can create and modify streams in both.  The problem is that when I create a new stream on one, it never shows up on the other!  I never receive an invite, which I assume I wouldn't since it's all the same account.  Just not sure why the Shared Streams don't sync over multiple devices when the normal My Photo Stream works perfectly fine.  Any thoughts??  Thanks!
Hardware/Software Specs:
MacBook Pro 5,5 (Late 2009 13")
OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
iPhoto v9.5.1 (902.17)
Aperture 3.5.1
iPhone 4iOS 7.0.4
Note:  I am currently in the process of downloading iPhoto 2.0 for iOS to see if there's any way to access the streams through that.  Figured it's worth a shot!!

  • Why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto?

    why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto?  Within iMovie, it appears as though videos can be imported from the iPhoto library.  However, within iPhoto there are no videos that appear within the Library.  Is it possible to import photos into iPhoto from a shared photo stream?  if not, how can videos be imported into iPhoto?

  • Shared photo streams not working in new iPhoto?

    I upgraded to Mavericks and the new iPhoto to be able to work with the shared photo streams I'd created on my iPhone, but they seem to be nonfunctional in iPhoto 11. I'll select photos, create a stream, and add the photos; the pictures will say "added to shared photo stream", but the stream itself will be entirely empty.
    Quite simply, iPhoto says it's creating and adding pix to photo streams, but it isn't. How do I fix this? It's sort of a major omission to have a prominent new feature not actually function at all.

    iCloud photo sharing, which allows subscribers to add photos and videos to a shared stream created by you, will not be supported until OS X Mavericks is released.  OS X Mountain Lion only supports shared photo streams, which does not allow subscribers to add photos.
    Notice that is says "(iPhoto and Aperture users will not see photos and videos added by iCloud Photo Sharing contributors at this time.)" under "What do I need to be able to like photos and videos in a shared stream" in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4379.  Also note that is says "Coming with OS X Mavericks" under "iCloud Photo Sharing" in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759.

  • Shared photo streams not transferring photos

    My shared photo stream was working fine, and then suddenly it wouldn't receive any photos from other users, and wouldn't send them my uploaded pictures? How do i get it to work again? I also got an email that someone subscribed but it never showed up on my phone as subscribed, just invited. I feel like it just needs to refresh or something. Any tips would be appreciated!

    I have had the same problem - Shared Photo Streams (evidently) do not update dynamically. There is also no button to force an update in the photo app either.
    On your iDevice by going into Settings > Photos & Camera and switching off "Shared Photo Streams".  Go into your Photo app and check that they have been removed.
    Now go back into the same Settings sub-menu and re-enable "Shared Photo Streams".  Back in the Photo app, you will see the shared stream update with the correct photos.
    I have the exact same problem with any shared photo streams I create on my iPhone - they do not appear on my iPad unless I do the above.  The same goes for iPhoto/Aperture on my Mac.

  • Shared Photo Streams Not Updating?

    About a week ago I realized my shared photo streams were not updating. I am not recieving any new photos that my friends are posting, and when I upload new photos they don't go to any of my friends' devices. How can I fix this problem?
    Thanks!

  • Shared Photo Streams not on all iDevices

    Hi
    Just set up a shared photo stream on my iPhone 4 with iOS 6.  Should this appear on all my other iDevices (iPad 3 with iOS 6 too)?
    It doesn't appear to be there.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • 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 not working on my MacBook Pro 10.7.5

    I currently have a shared stream with my wife on my iPad and her iPhone. I want to share photo's with her from my MacBook. I have turned on photo stream in iCloud preferences and photo share in iPhoto preferences. I select the photo's to share in iPhoto, click on the share icon, then photo stream. Nothing happens, I don't get any option to add or create a shared photo stream. In the source list my photo stream in the latest category, I see in iCloud help it is in the Web category. Not sure if this is the problem. I just want to share photo's from my Macbook Pro.

    As far as I know, D2 will only work on legacy systems that do not run on intel processors. The game only works on the older PowerPC system, unfortunately.

  • Photo stream not working in iPhoto

    I enabled icloud in iphoto but only a few photos come thru in "My Photo Stream." My shared photo streams with other people show up but no photos are showing up in the shared streams. It shows 0 photos in all of them but on my devices all my streams (shared or just my photo stream) are fine. Please help! It's frustrating!

    MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion
    is your profile signature above still valid?
    I enabled icloud in iphoto but only a few photos come thru in "My Photo Stream."
    My Photo Stream will only show the recent photos that are currently in iCloud, after you turn it on, - the photos added during the last 30 thirty days, and at most 1000 photos.
    My shared photo streams with other people show up but no photos are showing up in the shared streams. It shows 0 photos in all of them but on my devices all my streams (shared or just my photo stream) are fine. Please help!
    The Shared streams will take some time to populate. After the Yosemite upgrade I had to wait for a full day, until the shared streams showed the photos. If the do not show up after some more waiting, disable "Photos" in the iCloud System Preferences, restart the Mac, and turn it on again. Then enable it also in iPhoto again.

  • Shared photo streams not using full resolution

    I was very excited about this feature but after testing it I realised it's not using the full res pictures on the shared photostream. Which for me is kind of a silly.
    Am I doing something wrong or is that how it's working?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

  • IOS4 photos do not appear in iphoto

    HI!!
    I have an iphone 3g with iOS4. After upgrading, photos taken from my iphone camera or even downloaded from the internet do not appear in iPhoto when I try to sync. I get a blank space with an outlined frame. Any fix? I have all updated software.

    Greetings,
    Ensure all your software is up to date (Apple Menu > Software Update).
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches (I remove the whole folder. It will be re-generated upon restart.)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    If the issue persists try importing using the Image Capture program found in the Applications folder.
    If image capture works then try rebuilding your iPhoto Library following this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. Use the bottom 3 rebuild options.
    If Image Capture does not work then there may be an unreadable picture in the camera roll which is blocking import. See this article for suggestions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3195
    Hope that helps.

  • Shared photo stream not updating on ipad ios 7.1?

    I have an iphone 4 and an ipad mini both on ios 7.1
    I use them interchangeably to look at or add to shared photo streams. They have both worked great for some time although today the ipad is not showing about 30 photos/videos. An example is out of about 1300 pictures 30 of them were posted yesterday that are NOT visible on my ipad. They are however visible on my iphone. I can add NEW photos to the stream from either device and the other device updates accordingly but for some reason those 30 or so pictures will NOT show up on my ipad. What am I missing?

  • Shared photo stream not notifying on updates

    Each time my shared photo stream updates you are supposed to receive a notification and a badge app on the photos application.
    Despite these being turned on I am not receiving the notification or the badge. 
    Is this a bug?

  • Shared photos/videos not appearing in streams on originating imac, only icloud icon

    I share pictures and photos to icloud from Aperture 3.5.1. The photos and videos are available on other devices that share the same icloud stream, but in Aperture on the originating imac, when I look in the "icloud" section at the photo streams, I see the streams, as named by me, but I don't see the actual shared photos oir videos, only an icloud icon. Again, the other devices see the streams and photos fine. Only on the originating imac is there a problem. If I share a photo or video from one of the other devices onto icloud, the imac can access the item with no problem. It's only this one aspect of sharing from the imac that's giving me problems. Any insight?
