TS3989 photos in my photo stream do not show up on my windows computer

Hello All,
I have an iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and a Windows laptop. The photos in my Photo Stream are the same on all of the iOS devices but not on my laptop. I have made a Shared Photo Stream to try an upload pictures from my phone to my laptop and still cannot see that. The strange thing is that one or two of the recent photos taken on the same days as the ones in my iOS photo stream are on my laptop photo stream, but not all of them. So it is not a connection or setup problem. Any help?

Do they play in iTunes on the computer?
Are they from a different source or format that the ones that do sync?

  • My iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 8.1 laptop or my Windows 7 PC.

    I have been going through the forums for the last few weeks and nothing has helped.  Both computers are x64 bit.
    Problems I am experiencing
    A. Windows 7 PC has not synced photo stream since September 25
    B. Windows 8.1 laptop has not synced since a little before that.
    C. I can't upload any photos (.jpegs) to the photo stream.  An error pops up saying that they cann't be uploaded as they are not in a format supported by iCloud, even though they are jpegs.
    D. Photos are syncing ti my ipad 3 perfectly fine, so clearly there is a problem with my computers but I am totally stumped.
    I have un-installed, deleted all icloud photo stream folders, restarted and then re-installed the iCloud control panel on both computers, and it has created new folders and re-synced maybe 30 photos before it stopped again.
    I have uninstalled every single Apple program on my Windows 8.1 laptop and reinstalled iTunes, iCloud and Quicktime and that didn't help.
    I have toggled the Photo Stream on/off button in setting on my iphone, and that seemed to kick start the sync on my Windows 7 PC this morning, so far I've got 70 photos on my Windows 7 PC and that's where it has stopped but its a really random selection, and doesn't include the photos I took yesterday or today.
    Two of my colleagues at work where my Windows 7 PC is located - their photo streams are working fine, both using ios7 and icloud control panel, however their computers are x32 bit.
    I have also simply logged out and signed in again multiple times, however that doesn't do anything.
    I have unticked the "read-Only" permissions on my photo icloud stream folder, but that didn't help either.
    I have followed the troubleshooting from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989 - however that also did not help.
    I have tried changing the folder path for iCloud photo stream, however that did not help either.
    I tried the steps from someone who said they spoke to an Apple rep (steps copied from forum and I put them in italic) on this forum: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5381738
    Anyway, the Apple rep had me sign out of iCloud CC on my PC.
    Then on each iOS devices Settings/iCloud/Delete Account.
    Confirmed all the warnings.
    Then re-entered my iCloud id and password on the iOS device.
    Things restarted and the iOS Photo Streams got loaded with the number of photos that
    iCloud has.
    Signed in on iCloud on the PC. It synced the same way.
    Tried taking pictures on the iPhone and iPad. They synced everywhere.
    So I'm back in business.
    I just deleted everything on my iOS devices when I exited iCloud.
    My interest is the PC syncing when I take a photo on my iPhone.
    ME: Okay so these steps again refreshed the photostream on my iPhone 5.  I can see that the photos I took yesterday and today have been uploaded to the photo stream as I can see them there on my device.  I have also now signed back into iCloud on my Windows 7 PC and it is slowly syncing again, but just recognising the same photos it downloaded previously as per Step 3 which I did just earlier this morning.
    I have also just tried uploading photos via the upload folder from my windows 7 PC, and they uploaded perfectly.
    This is really, really frustrating.  I've tried everything I can find on these forums but nothing has helped fix the issue 100%.
    Can anyone offer something else I can try to reslove this issue?

    Hi all.  I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • HT201317 photo stream is not showing on icloud

    phot stream is not showing on icloud.com on my pc

    Basically Apple actually took away the Gallery capability we used to have with me.com when they replaced it with Photo Stream. So there is no way to see on the web, nor send a URL to friends to share the pictures like you used to be able to do with Gallery. To do that, you will need to push those photos to an external service such as Snapfish or Flickr or a social media site.

  • I have installed Itunes 10.5 on my PC and I have turned photostream on on my Ipad2 and Iphone.  The photos sync fine but they are not showing up on my PC.   What's the problem?

    I have installed Itunes 10.5 on my PC and I have turned photostream on on my Ipad2 and Iphone.  The photos sync fine but they are not showing up on my PC.   What's the problem?  I can see my photos on my ipad and Iphone.   I want to be able to see them on my PC when I take pictures from my Iphone and Ipad.  How do I see Photostream on my PC?

    You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.

  • Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to setting-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?

    Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to settings-privacy-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?

    when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

  • How to arrange photos in camera roll datewise its not showing datewise please let me know

    how to arrange photos in camera roll datewise its not showing datewise please let me know

    Emile
    Bear with me a minute. You're confusing a lot of things.
    1. As Larry says, on Windows you are using a File Manager for you your photos. All well and good if it works for you, but limited. Why? Because it doesn't leverage any of the extra information available with photos files. Essentially, a File Manager doesn't distinguish between a photo nd a Word file or a Music file. They are just files.
    2. Photo Managers like iPhoto (Or Picasa, Aperture, Lightroom et al) work differently. They are designed to leverage the additional information available in the photo file. Case in point: Date. In the File Manager you have folders created for Year/Month/Day. In iPhoto the pics are grouped into Events automatically. These Events are based on the date and time the Photos were taken, and which is recorded in the Exif metadata for the photo file.
    As we all know, when one downloads pictures from a camera, their"names" appear as a bunch of letters and the number indicating thesequence.
    These are Filenames assigned by the Camera. In iPhoto you don't change Filenames you edit Titles. Titles are quite independent of filenames and are an entry in the Exif metadata.
    I'm not sure what you've done in the renaming sequence, but iPhoto does not have a Sort -> by Name command. There is a Sort By Title command.
    But you would not use Events for this job anyway. You would use an Album. Create an Album, drag the pics to it and then you can sort them in any order you want, manually. Then using the Batch Change Command you can create a sequence for them. So, Title the pics 'House Sale' and check the box to append  number and the result:
    House Sale 01, House Sale 02 etc

  • When I upload photos, some of the images do not show, but appear as a dotted square. has anyone had this problem?

    when I upload photos, some of the images do not show, but appear as a dotted square. has anyone had this problem?

    Hi Terence, When I am uploading photos from a memory card,not all of the photos show up on I photo as a photo image, but show up as a dotted square line. For example, I just added 12 photo from two days. The first day had 5 photos, but only 4 show up as images, then there is 1 as dotted  a square. The next day, there 7 images, with only 4 showing up as photos, and three as the dotted squares.
    I am using I photo 11, 9.1.1.
    Thank you

  • Video will not show in the preview window

    I am using iMovie 08 and have some video that I pulled into iMovie using my iSight. Whenever I am trying to preview my movie it will not show in the preview window. I did a software update for iMovie and the issue is still happening. Any ideas??

    Although the same not preview-able iMovie event played perfectly fine when transferred to a different mac running perian and divx, disabling Perian solved the issue on my macbook, too!
    Thanks for the tip!
    I still wonder why some clips preview and some don't (with perian running)...
