Shared photostream Phot quility

Hey
I want to start a shared photostream. what can you say about the quality of photos, are they compressed or will the resolution change?
I need the photos in original quality on the invited devices. Read that only the My Photostream photos but not the shared ones habe the same quality like original

Hi albummi,
The image resolution used by Shared Photo Streams varies depending on the particular device, as detailed below:
Which photo formats and sizes are supported in Shared Photo Streams?
Shared Photo Streams supports JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and most RAW photo formats. On your Mac or PC, your photos are downloaded and stored in full resolution. On your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV, your Photo Stream photos are delivered in a device-optimized resolution that speeds downloads and saves storage space. While actual dimensions will vary, an optimized version of a photo taken by a standard point-and-shoot camera will have a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution when pushed to your devices. Panoramic photos can be up to 5400 pixels wide.

Shared photostream cant add subscriber

i can receive shared photostream invites, but cant create my own, well cant create one, but cant add subscribers why?

Can the RECIPIENT of a shared photo delete that photo from the Shared Photo stream on THEIR device or can only the ORIGINATOR OF THE SHARED PHOTO remove the shared phot by deleting it from the originating device? In case I have not described the issue properly here is the situation. I wish to share photos that I take on my iPhone 5 with my wife's iPad 2. She wants to be able to delete those photos from her iPad after she has viewed them. I can not figure out how to delete my shared photos directly from her iPad except by deleting them from the Shared Photos my iPhone.

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name??

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter. How do I fix that?

CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS.

Can I create a shared photostream from my pc?

I know I can upload photos from my PC to My Photostream, but I want to create a Shared Photostream (album) with photos from my PC. It seems I cannot create an individual Shared Photostream album on my PC, and upload pictures to it. I can only create a Shared Photostream from my iPhone, and upload photos to it from my iPhone. Am I doing something wrong?
The problem with My Photostream is the photos there will get bumped in time, with pictures taken by my iPhone. I want to keep the photos in a Shared Photostream (album) so as to play them on my Apple TV.
What can I do?
Thanks!!!

Thanks so much. I clicked the New photo stream link at the top and was able to make an album of photos to display on my Apple TV, just as desired. Only problem now is that the Random Theme selection in Apple TV does not rotate amongst the various themes, it just sticks on one, unlike the Random Theme selection in Ken Burns or Classic selection choices at the bottom of the list which does rotate. If you know anything about this, please let me know. Meanwhile thanks again to set me straight on the first tip!

With ios 7 how can I add videos from a shared photostream to my camera roll?

When I am viewing a shared photostream that I subscribe to I am able to select photos and add them to my camera roll (essentially saving someone's shared photos to my device). Now that you can add videos to shared photostreams with ios 7 I was hoping to be able to do the same with videos. However, when I view a shared vieo and attempt to save it to my camera roll it is not an option. Any ideas on how to do this?

iCloud: Shared Photo Streams FAQ
iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Photo Sharing and Shared Photo Streams
To save photos/video from the photo stream to your camera roll, select it, click the share button, and select "save to camera roll". It will remain in the photo stream as well, until you delete it.

HT4890 Shared photoStream not working for public share

Shared photoStream not working for public share and keep showing the same url for the first shared stream i have published. this means everytime i try to share to anyone else not using an iphone it comes up with page not found. I have also notice the in first initial public url which was given is the same url keeps showing up everytime i try to make it public. how do i reset or change that url so other public share stream will work. how do i get this to work

I've read some posts from users with a similar problem who were able to fix this by changing the download folder (or just click Change next to Download Folder, then click cancel). Not sure if this will work for you but thought I would pass it along.

HT201077 As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others. Only I can see them. How come others sharing this photo stream are not getting the new photos?

As of recently any photos I add to a shared photostream will not update for others and I don't see the updated photos on my other devices. Only I can see them from the device that i've posted from. How come others sharing this photostream are no longer getting the new photos? My iphone (the device i'm adding from) shows 20 pictures in this shared photostream and yet 4 other people that I share this photostream album with and my ipad only show 12 photos. For the past week I keep adding photos thinking people will see them but it just won't update the new ones. Any ideas how to fix this?

You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.

Sharing Photostreams in iPhoto 9.4 not working

iPhoto used to be so simple. Now, with Albums, Events, Photos, Journals, Photostreams etc it's all becoming a bit of a dog's breakfast. All I want to do is to share some photos with my family.
So I use the new Photostream sharing facility in iPhoto 9.4. I follow the instructions to the letter: Select Photos>Click Share> Choose Photstream from the pop-up>then New Photostream>then email addresses>then click Share. But the new shared Photostream is empty and I end up sending an email to my family inviting them to subscribe to an empty Photostream. What's going on? Is anyone else getting this problem? Should I be doing something clever that Apple hasn't yet told me about?
Grateful for any help.

I had a reply from iPhoto Support which said the following:
Under the Apple menu [], select System Preferences and click on the iCloud icon.
Turn off Photo Stream.
Go to iPhoto, click Photo Stream on the sidebar and click "Turn on Photo Stream".
This was supposed to clear the problem. Sadly, for me at least, it hasn't. Now, I can create a shared Photostream and share it with myself, but it's empty and, now, it doesn't even share itself with me. :-(

TS3989 How do you add more people to a shared photostream in iCloud

I have set up a shared photostream and a couple of people have access . I want to expand the access to more people - how do I do this without deleting the photostream and starting again?

Dear Tildeline,
The above answer was for the iPad.
To add/delete people or delete the stream on your iPhone, tap on the little blue arrow on the right side of your photostream, in the photostream overview tab within the Photos app (do not go inside the stream).
Best regards,
Thibaut

How do I save photo's from a shared photostream that I have subscribed to, to my PC?

I was invited to subscribe to a shared photostream, I can now access these pictures on my iPhone. I want to save all of these pictures on my PC, is there an easy way of doing this?
I expected to see these pictures in my 'Photo Stream' folder on my PC under the 'Shared' folder.
There are about 900 pictures, will it take some time for these to appear?
Any pointers/help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

Hey there, i made this mistake also what your doing is looking in the Photostream Viewer found in (Other Drives) section of Computer. If you look in the Photostream folder (Mine is located in the Pictures Library) you will find a folder labeled shared.
Photostream folder location is set in the iCloud Settings under Control Panel. Photostream options button.
Hope this helps.

How to reorder a shared photostream?

I made an Aperture project and shared it via an iCloud photostream. Then I decided to edit the original of one of the pictures, and at the bottom of the window Aperture gratifyingly claimed to be updating my shared photostream. Only thing is, it didn't. So I deleted the photo from the shared stream and reimported the edited version. Now in the shared photostream it is out of order (has come in at the end) and I can find no way to edit the order of the photos on the shared stream in order to put the order back as it was.

You cannot reorder the photos in the stream. They will always show in the order they have been added to the stream.
You can only copy the photos out of the stream to an event, delete the photos from the stream, then add them again in the sequence you want. I would not do that, however, if I am sharing the stream with other parties, because it will create a lot of network traffic, and your friends may not want to have to download all photos again.

Image quality in shared photostream

Hello,
I started to use iCloud photo library which works fine and I have all the photos in iCloud in original quality (at least at seems like so to me).
But when I start a shared photostream and put the photos there and I open it on my Mac in new app Photo, what quality do have these images?
The reason I am asking it is because I take many pictures and chosen one I store to shared photostream. And time from time I would like to save them to my HDD and store them in original quality.
Thank you for clearing this question.

Really nobody?

Missing thumbnails in shared photostreams

On an iMac running latest Mavericks, this is the home of my photo library and this is where I create shared photostreams. When I go into those shared photostreams, most of the thumbnails are missing. Only the ones from after December 23 appear; that coincides with when I installed Yosemite and then reverted to Mavericks using a fresh Time Machine backup. I can double-click the empty box and get the image, and I can right-click and select "find in library" so it certainly knows what image is supposed to be there and actually has it.
None of the options in the repair menu (repair thumbnails, etc.) have had any effect whatsoever. The images all show on our devices so it seems the cloud part is OK; the problem appears to be just within the Mac.
I'm pretty sure I could just recreate them all but that is a PITA in several ways, both for me to figure out which ones they are and also for the subscribers to get a whole new version of the same album(s). Clearly this is broken somehow. Any idea how I can fix it?

Try the following:
Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and Photo Sharing in iPhoto's iCloud preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. See if that will jump start Photo Sharing and Shared Photo Streams..

Duplicates in Shared Photostream in iOS Photos, Mac OS X iPhoto, AppleTV, but not iCloud Web

Just started using the shared Photostream feature today, and we noticed that the first shared Photostream we tried duplicated all the photos that were shared if viewed from iPhoto or AppleTV. The web site for the shared Photostream does have exactly the right pictures with no duplicates.
All versions of the software mentioned are the latest.
Background: I did have to turn on Photostream for iPhoto for the user, and the user had never used iPhoto Photostream before. We might have tried sharing once, then cancelled to get a better list of email addresses before sending out the invitation, but we didn't hit OK, only Cancel.

You know you're not talking to Apple here, right? Only other users, just like you.
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback is the route to Apple.

HT201317 shared photostream appears to have stopped updating

My shared photostream appears to have stopped updating to other users, any thoughts as to why this may have happened? It has worked for the last 3 weeks with no problems, I still have 4.8gb of iCloud storage and I have only uploaded 83 pictures.

At that point I would recommend just waiting and allowing it some time. Last year, before IOS 6 came out there was some backlog in some Apple systems. If problem does not fix itself in few days, I would suggest re sharing the new stream and deleting old one.
