Unable to access Photo Stream from email invite

I have been invited to a photo stream by a friend via an email to my Gmail account. When I click the 'Join this photo stream' link it takes me to a page telling me that I need OSX 10.8.2, iPhoto 9.4, be logged in to iCloud and press the 'Join this photo stream' link again. I have fulfilled all of this however it just keeps returning me to this page instead of allowing me to join the photo stream. Does anybody know how to solve this? Thanks.

Did you get this in the email?
If so try the link at the bottom of the email.

Accessing photos downloaded from email

I have been saving photos sent to me on my hotmail account to iPhoto...but, when I go to access them in iPhoto they aren't in my Library. I've found the photos saved in a "modified" folder/format and cannot move them to my Library. How can I resolve this?

gemini75:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have an option of where to download photos from your hotmail account? If so do not save them anywhere inside the iPhoto LIbrary folder. Same them to the desktop where you can then add them to the library. iPhoto will not import any files that reside anywhere inside it's library folder. So if those files in the Modified folder do not exist in the Originals folder try moving them to the desktop and import from there.
As a precaution until you're sure that's the case, make a backup copy of your library folder to fall back on if things don't go as expected.

Unable to to save photo attachments from emails in ios7

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Is it possible you've viewed the shared album before it's had time to upload.

I have an iphone 5s and I am unable to delete the Photo Stream from my phone.

I can not get these photos deleted from my phone. They are in Photo Stream.

Try disabling photo stream from settings. This should remove all pictures you have in photostream.

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.

I have suddenly become unable to access photo library iPhoto (vers 9.5) on my external drive. And time Machine will no longer back up to the same external (LaCie) drive. Appreciate all suggestions. The drive does show up on my desktop....

I have suddenly become unable to access photo library (iPhoto vers 9.5) on my external hard drive. Also time machine isnt backing up to same external hard drive (LaCie). The drive does show up on the desk top, but when i open iPhoto the library isnt listed, so I cant option click.

First, one should not try to run an iPhoto library from the same volume/drive that is being used by Time Machine for backups. TM will continue to fill up the drive thus squeezing out iPhoto from being able to be opened and used. Also that doesn't allow you to let TM backup your library as it does with other files on your boot drive.
If you partition the EHD into two separate partitions you can run the library from it but that won't let TM backup the library which is important.
Are you able to see the library on the EHD via the Finder? If so copy it back to your boot drive and open it there. You may have to do some fixing on it.
Solution is to either run the library from the boot drive or get a second EHD to run the library from and let TM back it up along with your boot drive.

Access photo stream on imac

My iphone has malfuctioned and is not useable, but everything is saved to icloud. I cannot figure how to access the photo stream from iCloud from the iphone camera , onto the new iMac. I was able to download my entire iTunes library onto my new iMac, but need help figuring out the photos. Thanks!

Here's an article that will help answer your questions regarding enabling PhotoStream on your iMac so that you can view and download the pictures into iPhoto. It's a great feature.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
On your Mac, go to System Preferences > iCloud and check the box for Photo Stream. Then, open iPhoto or Aperture to confirm that Photo Stream is turned on in the application you want to use with Photo Stream. You can also adjust your Photo Stream settings in iPhoto or Aperture Preferences.

TS3988 Can't access photo stream and icloud, despite having the right id/password

I can access icloud online, and on my macbook pro. But for some reason, I can't access my storage preferences (it says: Details not available), nor can I access photo stream. I get an error message that says:
Photos for the iCloud account “[email protected]” cannot be accessed. Review your account information in System Preferences.
When I click on 'review'
I can also see my storage settings (after inputting my password), and everything is correct and up-to-date. Yet it won't load the storage details.
I also don't want to sign out, because I get messages telling me that everything on my mac will be deleted, and I don't want to lose anything.
What now?
Thanks for your help,
Lutz

You aren't supposed to be able to access photos at iCloud.com.
To enable photo stream in iPhoto enable system preferences > photos and follow on screen instructions.

In iPhoto, moving Photo Stream from 'recents' to 'library'

As per the title.
In iPhoto, I have Photo Stream set up fine (ish). I want all my photos to be imported to iPhoto but I want them in a folder of their own. I have set up a smart folder to import any photos that are named 'IMG_'. This works if I choose for photo stream to be automatically imported into photos, events and places etc (which eventually I want to turn off but still have them smartly imported).
However, I've found it only smartly imports photos from any albums under the Library tab, and not from the Recents tab (where photo stream is). Therefore, is there any way to move the location of photo stream from Recents to under Library instead?
Many thanks for replies or work around solutions on how to do this.
Lewis

'Recents' are just some handy shortcuts to material frequently (or recently) accessed. The last couple of items, the last import and so on. Again, it's not a place, it's a list. The Photostream is a link to the items in the stream - stored in your Users/Library Application Support (you can see this simply by going File -> Reveal in Finder), but the Photostream Events point directly to material stored in the Library Package.
I would like my photo stream photos imported into an album other than the general Photos album in my library.
You're going to need to clarify terms a little. You're using folders and albums interchangeably and they're not the same thing, and sometimes you're using either to refer to Events.
Every Photo is in the LIbrary.
The Library can be viewed in wo ways: via Events or Photos. That's exactly the same material viewed from different perspectives.
Every photo in the Library is in an Event, and these correspond to the folders they are stored in on the HD, at time of import (though this can change, shots moved from Event to Event do not move on the HD)
Albums are arbitrary collections created by the user. You decide what photos are in an Album. Photos in an Album reference the actual shots in the Library. They don't use any extra disk space.
Folders cannot contain Photos. They can contain Albums or other Folders.
So, if you can clarify exactly what you're hoping for perhaps we can figure out a way to achieve it.

How can I see My Photo Stream from two Macs associated with the same Apple ID?

I have a MacBook Pro (my personal machine) and an iMac (our family computer).
The iPhoto library housing all of our family photos lives on the iMac.
The iPhoto library on my MacBook Pro is currently empty.
I have an account on both machines. I have associated the same Apple ID with both machines.
When I launch iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and attempt to turn on photo sharing (so that I can see My Photo Stream, as well as other shared streams), iPhoto informs me that "iCloud Photos for xxx@xxx is being used with another library named 'iPhoto Library'."
My iPhone, which is also affiliated with the same Apple ID, shows the streams just fine.
What can I do to remedy this situation? I'd like to be able to view my shared streams on my MacBook Pro, while leaving the actual massive photo library on the iMac.

I found out about this issue when I created a new library with some photo's I wanted to sync to my iCloud account. I found the following on the Fat Cat Software page and thought it might be helpful to others:
Using Photo Stream with multiple libraries
Starting in iPhoto 9.2, Apple introduced a new feature called Photo Stream, which lets you automatically transfer photos via their iCloud service between your iPhoto library and your other devices such as an iPhone, iPad, or another Mac. This feature works when you have multiple iPhoto libraries set up, but there are a couple things to be aware of.
First, iPhoto will only allow Photo Stream to be active in one iPhoto library at any given time. If you've already enabled Photo Stream in one library, but then open a second library and enable Photo Stream there, this will cause Photo Stream to be turned off in the first library.
Any photos downloaded by Photo Stream are actually stored in an entirely separate location from any of your iPhoto libraries. This means that, even if you do switch Photo Stream from one library to another, you will not need to go through redownloading all the photos you already have in Photo Stream back from the iCloud servers. So, switching Photo Stream from one library to another is a relatively inexpensive operation, so you can do it as often as needed without it being much of a hassle.

How can I subscribe to a Shared Photo Stream from iPhoto 9.4 on OSX 10.7.5 ?

I just updated to iPhoto 9.4 on both my (just updated) OSX 10.8.2 MacBook Pro and my OSX 10.7.5 Mac mini.
For some mysterious reason Apple specifies that I can not subscribe to the new "Shared Photo Streams" from my OSX 10.7.5 Mac mini.
How could that be ?
How can I get around this ?
How can it be that Apple claims that 'Shared Photo Streams' can be shared to all my other devices, but it turns out that my major photo-database can't, even though it has a brand new version of last year's OSX running... ???!!!
This can't be a software issue...
because if that were the case Apple would be deliberately cutting off users of last year's operating system... (...I even think there is a law prohibiting that...)
so... can anyone tell me what the exact piece of hardware is that I am missing ?
or has anyone found a solution for this yet ?
Thanks !

The only hardware that's preventing me from upgrading to 10.8 "Mountain Lion" would be the fact that a Mid-2007 Mac mini doesn't have a separate graphics card...
...as all other hardware-components ar similar to the iMac Mid 2007... :
- at least 2GB of PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM RAM
- a 64-bit Intel Core 2 Duo "Merom" processor
- a WiFi-N compatible AirPort-card (I've upgraded the one in my Mac mini to an Atheros AR-9280...)
- OSX 10.6.8 or later installed (I have OSX 10.7.5)
- iPhoto 9.4
...so the only spec I not meeting hardware-wise is the fact that my Mac mini has a GMA950 shared graphics card...
but surely... that can not be the reason I can't subscribe to a Photo Stream...
why would that have anything to do with eachother ???!!!
[ I've even seen claims of tricked OSX 10.8 installers for the Mid-2007 Mac mini, so if that's my only option... ]

Any idea what could have went wrong suddenly, everything was working fine from last 1 month.
Thanks,

Never mind, figured out there was a lock on SQL table which caused all the problems. Once I released the lock it PowerPivot refresh started working fine.
Thanks.
