TS3989 I can't turn on Photo Stream in my System Preferences

So I had to get a new password for my AppleId account and now I can't seem to keep PhotoStream turned on in my SystemPreferences. Whenever I log into iCloud and go through the set up steps and the PhotoStream box is checked, whenever I sign out I get a messgae saying that I will be turning PhotoStream off. My photos are not being synced between my devices and Mac any help would be appreciated.

.....whenever I sign out I get a messgae saying that I will be turning PhotoStream off....
Why do you keep signing out, of course this will turn photostream off, it will turn everything off.

  • TS3989 how can I share a photo stream from my mac? there's no check box in system preferences to turn it on

    I've been having trouble to share my photo stream with other from my mac. Once I selecte the photos and click share>photo stream, nothing else happens. The option for "new photo stream" does not appear, neither the field where you type in the email addresses from people you whant to share it with. I all ready checked in iphoto'11> system Pref.> photo stream and there's no "shared photo strem" check box to turn on or off... I also checked in my mac system pref to be sure that my icloud is enabled and it is.
    If I select photos and then go to my tool bar and press share. the option of photo stream is not available.
    I also can't accept any shared photo stream from other and view it in my iphoto. I can only access it via web.
    I DO can use my photo stream correctly and share it via my iphone. and every picture that I take uploads into my mac and every photo I import from cameras into my iphoto also uploads fine into my Ph stream. THE PROBLEM IS THAT I CAN'T SHARE THEM FROM MY MAC.....
    Please can someone help me?

    You turn on Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane:
    Check the box "Automatic Upload" to add every photo imported into the library to the Photo Stream.  Or leave it unchecked and manually add just selected photos to the stream by dragging them onto the Photo Stream heading in the left hand pane.

  • TS3989 How can I share my Photo Stream with my family?

    How can I share my Photo Stream with my family?  I have a Macbook Pro and an IPhone, and The Cloud.  They have IPhones and Macbooks.

    At the moment you cannot share your Photo Stream. Just wait a couple of weeks until iOS 6 and Shared Photo Streams will be released: http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/#photostreams

  • Can't turn on Photo Stream in iCloud for PC

    Hi,
    My photo stream used to work fine.  But after removing all the photos to separate folders in my computer, my new photos are no longer streaming to my PC.  They appear in the photo stream on my other devices - iPhone5 and iPad Mini.  It's just my PC that's missing the photos. 
    When I open the iCloud control panel, I cannot turn on the photos.  That option is ghosted.  I'm running on Windows 7 with iCloud 3.0.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?  All help is appreciated!  Thanks!

  • HT4906 I can't turn on photo stream

    I'm trying to set up photo streamming but the checkbox isn't available.

    Greetings,
    Questions:
    What version of iPhoto are you running?  (iPhoto > About iPhoto).  You want iPhoto 9.2.3.
    If you have iPhoto 9.2.3 Try:
    Quit all open Applications
    Go to Apple > System Preferences > iCloud > Sign Out
    Click anywhere on your desktop (the background) and then go to the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen, hold down the "option / alt" key on your keyboard and choose "Library".
    Go to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement and remove this folder to the trash
    Go to Apple > Restart
    Go to Apple > System Preferences > iCloud > Sign In
    Enable Photo Stream
    Hope that helps.

  • WHY I can't dowlaod my photo stream to my pc?

    why I CAN'T DOWLAOD MY PHOTO STEAM FROM MY ICLOD ACCOUNT TO MY PC?

    Hello lilireyes,
    It sounds like you are trying to setup Photo Stream on your PC.  I recommend following these steps to setup Photo Stream on your PC:
    On a Windows computer
    Your computer must have iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later installed. You can download it athttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455.
    Open the iCloud Control Panel, then turn on Photo Stream.
    To change the default Photo Stream upload and download folders, click Options. Click Change to choose a folder, then click OK.By default, photos are automatically downloaded to the My Photo Stream folder inside the Photo Stream album in your Pictures library, and uploaded from the Uploads folder inside the Photo Stream album in your Pictures library.
    To make your changes take effect, click Apply.
    When you import photos from a digital camera to the upload folder specified in the iCloud Control Panel, the photos appear automatically in My Photo Stream on your iOS devices and your computers set up with My Photo Stream.
    You can find the full article here:
    iCloud: Set up Photo Stream
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2605
    If you are still not able to access your Photo Stream after setting it up, I recommend following the steps in this article:
