TS3989 Can you use the search function in a shared photo stream? How?

Can you use the search function in a shared photo stream? When I try to search in the shared photo stream it goes to search in my photos.

I'm not sure there is a solution to your question, other than to not keep so many photos on your devices.  If you delete a photo from photo stream, it will delete it from all your devices.  To keep them, first save them to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  However, given the number of photos you have, a much more practical solution would be to transfer them to your computer using an app like PhotoSync, which will select them all at once and transfer them over wifi.
I'm not sure why you're seeing such a discrepancy in the amount of space taken up by your photos.  It's possible that something is corrupt given the large number of photos on your device.

  • Can you use the "Restore" function in Disk Utility to clone MacBook Pro HDD and make a bootable copy?

    I'm cloning my MacBook Pro's HDD to a SSD and didn't really want to install another app (SuperDuper, CCC), can I just use the Restore function in Disk Utility app to clone it and make a bootable copy on my SSD?
    Thank you for the help!

    Yes.
    Clone Yosemite, Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
             button.
         2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
         3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
         4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
             to the Destination entry field.
         5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
             the Source entry field.
         6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • How can I reduce the amount of storage a shared photo stream is taking on one of my devices

    I have over 8000 photos on the Cloud in various shared photostreams.  They all appear on all my devices which is great.  The devices show the photos using about 1GB of memory unless I plug into iTunes when it reveals they are in fact using circa 15GB!!  This is ok on the devices with large memory capacity but one of my 'phones is only 16GB in total and is now full.
    If I try to delete a photostream on this phone it threatens to delete the photostream on all my devices.
    It would appear that my cloud storage for photostream is limited by the device with the least memory. 
    Any ideas on solutions gratefully received.  Buy a new phone with more memory or delete some of the photostreams are the sub optimal ideas I have at present.
    Also why is the usage understated on the devices and only revealed when I plug in to iTunes?
    Many Thanks
    D

  • I can't use the search function on my messages in iOS 7?

    I have updated to iOS7.0.2 and I now I can't search in my messages - it just won't do anything when I type in a keyword! Help!

    I can get contacts messages up but I'm sure I used to be able to type a key word into the message search and it come up with the location - ie. if I had messaged someone about icecream I could just type that in and it would come up with the person I had sent it to?

  • I can't use the search function in both the Start Menu and Windows Explorer.

    This problem occurred yesterday when I uninstalled a program on my computer. Once the program was uninstalled, everything was fine until I tried to search for a file in my start menu search bar. When I attempt to search for something, nothing comes up. Not
    even a single document or piece of text. Nothing. 
    In other posts I've seen addressing the same issue that I'm having, people try to search something and a selection of files come up, like "Programs", "Documents", etc., except for me, it's all blank.
    In other threads people have suggested to delete certain subdirectories in regedit, but when I go into regedit, and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
    folder, there is no FolderTypes folder for me to delete. It's simply not there.
    I've pretty much tried every possible resolution under the sun, apart from completely re-installing Windows 7. Please help me fix this issue, because at this point I'm
    lost.

    Yes, sometimes, we can solve this issue by editing the registry entry you mentioned above, I have a suggestion, do you have a similar system or PC which is working fine? You can export this registry entry from that PC (which i sworking fine), then
    import it to your problematic PC, please remember that incorrect change in registry will cause serious damage, so backup the registry first before editing.
    After finishing editing the registry, restart PC. If doesn't work, open control panel\Indexing Options\Advanced, rebuild the index.

  • In iPhoto, how can I find a particular event using the search function?, In iPhoto, how can I find a particular event using the search function?

    In iPhoto, how can I find a particular event using the search function?

    NO - read my last answer over a year ago
    That is because iPhoto is all about photos - not about files
    You do not access the piles in iphoto - you access the photos using either iPhoto or the media browser - see this user tip for photo access details

  • HT203175 I have no problem signing on to iTunes my issue is once on the site I can not use the "search". It says there is a runtime error R6025 pure virtual function call. Has anyone had this problem and how do I fix it. Thanks

    I do not have a problem getting in the iTunes stores. My issue is once on the site I can not use the "search". It says there is a pure virtual function call R6025. How can I solve this problem? Do I have to create a new account? Do I have to uninstall and re-install? Thanks

    Thanks so much for your feedback. I really appreciate any input here.
    If someone from Adobe could GUARANTEE that this problem would go away if I
    purchased CS4, I would pony up the cash and do it. However, I'm skeptical
    about that because I just saw someone else post a message on the forum today
    who is running CS4 and getting the exact same runtime error as me.
    I'll try un-installing and re-installing as Admin, and if that doesn't work,
    maybe I can find a used copy of CS3.
    In the meantime, I'm also wondering if a Photoshop file can carry any sort
    of corrupt metadata inside it once it has errored out? Reason I ask is, I
    had to port all of my old PSD files to the new computer, and I only seem to
    be getting this error when I attempt to work on one of the files that
    previously got the runtime error when they were sitting on my XP machine.
    When I create new files from scratch on this new computer, they seem to be
    working just fine (at least, for now).
    If so, I would probably be smart to never open those troublesome
    "errored-out" files again.

  • Stack overflow at line: 1792 or 1788 when using the search function

    Hello everyone,
    My name is Thibault. I am a technical communications specialist. I've been using Robohelp html for a couple of years.
    I am working on the user guide of the software application developed where I work.
    This is a HUGE project, more than 6500 pages.
    We're two technical writers on this project. (This is an inportant detail since my colleague doesn't get the problem).
    I need your help because I have been having an annoying issue over the last couple of days.
    After the project is generated, I open it in the software, clicking F1.
    When I want to use the search function I have this error message displayed:
    "Stack overflow at line: 1792" or "Stack overflow at line: 1788"
    Do you know where this could come from?
    Furthermore, I noticed that this stack overflow only occurs on some words.
    I mean, it occurs for the most used words in this project.
    We have customers all over the world and over the last week, we've been getting a lot of feedbacks about this error message.
    I hope someone will be able to help me on this one!
    Thanks in advance!

    First of all, thanks for your answer RoboColum(n).
    Is the problem only when you search for a topic that contains Flash output?
    All my topics contain Flash outputs. I generate my output files on a folder that is embedded into the software.When in the software, I click F1 and the Flash User Guide opens.The search function works (or not) depending on the software version (32/64-bit).
    At what point exactly does the stack overview occur?
    We have two versions of the software a 32-bit version and a 64-bit version.
    The search function works fine with the 32-bit version.
    The problem occurs when I use the 64-bit version. When I type in a word, for example "unit", the stack overflow message appears. See below:
    As you can see, it looks like the search function freezes while the stack overflow message appears.
    And I never get this error message with the 32-bit version of our software.
    I also wonder whether you can search on a project that contains no Flash output. Perhaps you could try for us?
    What do you mean by that?
    As I told you previously, my Flash Player version is a 32-bit one.
    Do you think that the issue might come from there?

  • Using the search function in PP CC

    Using the search function in PP, can the newest software create a new bin with ALL clips the search finds, instead of just one-by-one?   I know PP isn’t FCP7, but FCP has a simple function when searching... put in the search parameters, it searches, finds clips, and asks if you want to create a new bin with those clips.  Click “yes” and all found clips appear in the new bin.  Wonderful!    So can the new PP now do this?  I can’t seem to find out, so I’m asking the community.  Thanks in advance for advice.

    Hi friedlanders -
    It looks like AND and OR work, as follows:
    "online help" AND "system"
    "online help" OR "system"
    I don't see how to make NOT work, though.

  • Certain LinkedIn functions are not working. Browser keeps on looping, for instance when using the search function

    I go to LinkedIn and type in a name in the search box, for instance "Peter" and hit enter.
    Normally, this will return with a list of people with the first name "Peter", listed according to degrees connectivity.
    Instead the web site never loads the next page. It appears that it keeps loading the page over and over again, but with no result.
    In the end I have to press back or use another browser (Safari) to load the page and use the search function.

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server. Any difference? If not...
    2. Clear Firefox's Cache Completely
    Edit > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    3. If needed, remove your linkedin.com cookies
    While viewing a page on the site:
    Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Remove each cookie then try reloading the page. You probably will need to log in again. Does that help?

    I have an Cannon MP830 and now I can't use the scanner function after upgrading to Mavericks.  Can someone help?

    There is no ICA driver for this model so you won't be able to use Image Capture or Preview. But there is a TWAIN scanner driver and the supporting MP Navigator application available for 10.8 from Canon, so you could try installing these and see if you can scan again.
