Unable to upload photos from photostream to FB

this has never worked right for me, but since the icloud update, my work around is no longer working. When I go to upload a photostream photo to my FB page, I can not select it.
The photo is there, in photostream, but now, after the update and the new way the pics are organized, they no longer are named (albeit automatically)
I used to be able to type the name in the file name blank and then it would let me select it
I am using google chrome, and I have tried safari also with same results
Windows 7, all latest updates on all aforementioned software
anyone else?
My new work around is using snip-it tool and saving it to desktop but ***???

You're welcome.
It is needed by the FaceBook app in order to upload photos with the app. You need it on for the apps that require location services in order to use the app or to use the location services function included with the app. You don't necessarily need it on for every app - that is up to you.
The arrow in the menu bar means location services is being actively used by an app.
The arrow next to an app at Settings > Location Services means the app has requested your location within the last 24 hours.

  • I recently re-loaded iphoto, and now am unable to upload photos from my camera - saying there is insufficient disk space

    I recently re-loaded iphoto, and now am unable to upload photos from my camera - saying there is insufficient disk space. does anyone have a solution?

    Assuming you have space on your disk, then it could be a symptom of a damaged Library.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. Keep getting the message "unable to upload now"

    My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. I keep getting the message "unable to upload now, try later"

    I suffer same.  AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem.  I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media).  To no avail.  Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
    1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
    2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
    3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
    4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
    Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either.  I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying.  This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
    The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots.  Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

  • Unable to upload photos from SD card to iPhoto

    I am no longer able to upload photos from my SD card to my iPhoto Library.  In the past I would see my SD card on left hand margin to click on and no longer do despite reinserting card or my own troubleshooting efforts (restarting mac and closing down other windows and trying to create a new album)
    Also, I am unable to even view the photos as I have been able to in the past.
    Would appreciate any assistance in getting this problem fixed so that I can continue to add photos to my library.
    Thanks

    Thanks LN.....I am able to view the photos through FINDER through the DCMI folder and then drag them into a new album I create on iPhoto.  It is a bit more work but at least I have a way of doing it.  I wish I could do it the way I did before and don't know why I am encountering a problem all of a sudden.
    If there is a way you think of that will allow the SD card to be accessed directly by iPhoto again and you can walk me through it I would appreciate it.
    But for now I am THRILLED to be able to at least get my pics imported into iPhoto for viewing and sharing.
    As far as reformating the card do you think that will resolve my problem and how exactly do I do that??
    I have a kodak Easyshare M341
    Thanks to you and TD for your help.....

  • HT2638 Hi, I'm running on IPhoto 09 Version 8.1.2 & recently developed a problem I have recently developed a problem. I am unable to upload photos from my iphone the process will start and maybe upload a few then it freezes.

    When i try to upload photos from my iphone iphoto freezes after a few have been uploaded, force quit shows that it is still running. I have left it running for days with no change. In addition Places is continually running, would this have an effect?
    Help much appreciated.

    The next step is to repair your main library: apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • 8.2 update - unable to upload photos from Camera app

    I downloaded the 8.2 update, and now I can't seem to upload photos from the Camera app to Facebook when I check-in. It only brings up my videos from the Camera app, not the photos. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • Unable to Upload Photos to Photostream via Proxy

    Hi
    One of our users advised that when publishing photos from my library to photostream they will not upload.
    We have proxy configured and established that when turning this off the photos then upload.
    Therefore there is a configuration in our proxy that is not configured correctly.
    Is there a number of apple.com address's that should be configured on our proxy server to enable the upload to work correctly? If so is there a live list of these anywhere?
    Thanks

    apple's addresses would be resolved by good DNS server, try to see if that is fixed by changing DNS on one of the phones to Google (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4)
    I would more likely be looking at blocked port numbers and that is where I would start if Google dns will not help.
    Well known TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software products

  • HT201317 is there a way to upload photos from photostream to iPhoto?

    My iphone died- had to replace it, and hadn't uploaded photos. They are on my ipad's photostream, but they aren't seen by iPhoto. Is there a way to force upload?

    If any of the photo stream photos are over 30 days old, they are no longer in your photo stream, which would explain why iPhoto can't see them.  (After photo strem 30 days photos are deleted from your photo stream but not from any device that already has them, which is why they may still be on your iPad but not be in your photo stream.)
    You could still save the photo stream photos to your camer roll (open your photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll), then import them to iPhoto (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and sync them to your replacement phone by selecting them on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  Another option is to use an app like PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer photos from your iPad's photo stream folder to your computer and/or your replacement phone.

    Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

  • HT201317 Unable to see uploaded photos on photostream

    I have set up my iPad 2 and my PC desktop. I manually uploaded photo to photo stream, but am unable to see photo from iPad.  Any ideas?

    Great tips, all, 99jon, @dj_paige, and @JimHess. Appreciate the help. Ran through each of these steps, which I should have mentioned. Here are a couple of notes:
    Not a smart collection. Just a simple collection that I created and added photos into.
    None of the images have been moved. Is there a way to see where the source images are stored? I backed up the images on an external so it crossed my mind that somehow the collection is referenced externally...but I'm not sure how I can even see where the collection itself is stored.
    Toggled on/off both the No Filters and Filters Off features. There are definitely no filters on...
    Thanks again.

    You can do it like KiltedTim suggested or if you are on iOS 5 you can use photostream too. I use photostream on my macbook air to import photos I take with my iphone. I never have to sync the phone up like I used to.

  • Can't upload photos from camera

    Have 12 pix to upload from camera (Canon Eos 50 D) to my IMac.   Been doing this for over 5 years with no problem till now.  Battery is good,  even tried the plug in battery just in case.   Cable plugs into camera,  then to my keyboard,  turn camera on but nothing happens.   Even turned off my back up,  just in case.   Camera gives no indication that battery is no good,  since all systems work:  menu, slideshow, etc.         
    Thanks.

    Hello mingdurga,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are unable to import photos from your Canon camera to your Mac because the Mac doesn’t recognize that the camera is connected. There are two different articles that I would suggest reading over in this situation. The first article has information, that you may already be familiar with, explains importing photos from a camera to your Mac.

    The next article is one that I would suggest reading over for troubleshooting. Please review the Top troubleshooting tips section of this article for assistance.
