Upload pictures to Photo Stream

Hello. I want to give iCloud Photo Stream a try. Problem is, iPhoto is horrendous software and I just won't run it. What other way are there to upload pictures to Photo Stream?
I can send pictures automatically from iPhone, and Wiindows user get a nifty uploads folder. Ironically, however, Mac users are stuck with bulky and unreliable software to upload their pictures. Why, I ask you, are Windows users being rewarded for not being Mac users?
Is there a way to set up a Windows-like "Uploads" folder, or upload the files ising some programming tool?  Thanks.

Here's one way:
1 - put the image files you want to upload to your Phone and then into PHoto Stream in a folder on your hard drive.
2 - connect your iPHone to your Mac and launch iTunes. 
3 - in your iPhone section of iTunes click on the Photos button in the toolbar.
4 - select the checkbox Syhnc Photos from .
5 - in the resulting window navigate to the folder you've created, select it and use the Apply button.
6 - once in your iPhone select the photos uploaded and move to the Photo Stream.
Or learn how to use iPhoto properly and make the operation nearly automatic.

  • Why don't all the pictures I take on my phone upload to my photo stream?

    Why don't the all of the pictures I take on my iPhone 5 upload to my photo stream?

    There are few things you can check. Most of the Hotels use "splash" login page when you go online you have to accept their TOS. If you don't do that connection does not exist, even if you see wifi simbol. Verify that both devices are connected to wifi. Also you want to make sure that camera app of your iphone is turned off and phone is charged over 20 %.
    Do simple test. When you on wifi take a new photo and open your photostream album on the same phone. If you see that photo show up in there in few min (takes 2 to 5 on fast connection) then you need to check your ipad and if it does not show there - check the charge and go online on ipad. Once you verify you can access Internet - see if photo shows up in photostream on the ipad. If you get problem in any step of that process- come back and we ll work througth the rest.
    That test will allow to check if photostream works at all, if the problem is intermittent - like you described, when you on good wifi it should rectify itself(it has 30 days to do that), but you want to make sure that those pictures do get in photostream album of your iphone.

  • Aperture 3.2.3 displays only 1000 pictures in photo stream

    I updated the software to 3.2.2 then to 3.2.3 and performed repair of the database but Aperture continues to display only 1000 pictures in photostream

    That's not quite true: on the Mac or PC, Photo Stream is supposed to store every image ever uploaded to the Photo Stream. At least on my Mac, Aperture creates a dedicated Photo Stream project for each month and downloads the pictures from the Photo Stream to the respective project.
    Exactly - that is the confusion:  These projects are part of the Aperture Library imported from the Photo Stream, and only are created if you activate auto import. They are not part of the Photo Stream.
    The Photo Stream itself is synchronized with the iCloud Storage and shows a snapshot of the most recent 1000 pictures.

  • HT6413 Why are my photos not uploaded to my photo stream on my PC?

    Running Win7 on my PC.  Photos taken on Ipad or Iphone 5 used to upload automatically.  Updated to Iphone 6 and they no longer do so.  Have checked all settings and they appear to be in order.  Any reason they should not upload to the photo stream?

    I found the problem.  AS it turns out, when I created my iCloud account I eneded up creating a NEW ID.  The process is a little bit confusing and it is apparently easy to get one ID on the iCloud on your iMac and another on your iPhone.  This is what I had done.  It was a simple matter of signing out of iCloud on the Mac and then signing back in wiht my original Apple ID (the one on the iPhone) once I signed backin, pictures starte appearing in the Photo Stream.  Easypeasy!

  • Can i load pictures into photo stream?

    can i load pictures into photo stream?

    There are a different ways to do this:
    - Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot.  This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream.
    - Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll.  This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll (if you choose to send them as Actual Size) and upload to photo stream.
    - Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once.  Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll.  These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream.  (You need an App like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream).

  • Automatic upload feature in Photo Stream

    I am confused with the 'Automatic Upload' feature in photo stream within iPhoto.  Hopefully you can help.
    The way I understand this feature is if I import a photo within iPhoto and the automatic upload feature is enabled, it will automatically put the imported photo into the photo stream such that it will be on all my ios devices.  Now this where it gets confusing.  In iPhoto I do not see the photo in my photostream event folder.  I do see it in photo stream on ios devices)iphone and iPad).  In iPhoto the photo is currently in the 'Import' folder.  So where does the photo in the import go when I do another import.  And...when photo stream d/l's pictures to monthstream folder, will there now be 2 copies of that same picture in iPhoto.
    I hope this is clear and you understand what I am trying to decipher.

    Thanks for answering.
    Cause I have some photos want to do some post processing in ipad via some tools like snapspeed.
    It happended to be the recently imported photos. So my work flow  is to get the photo from photostream in ipad.
    After finishing post processing, it automatically creates a new  photo in photostream (which I love that).
    And I can easily get the photo in  my iMac via photo stream.
    That's why I found the resolution changed, cause at first I even want to replace my original one.
    So I think if I want preserver the resolution, maybe I can use your way.
    Thanks agiain.

  • Difference between iCloud Photo Library and Upload to My Photo Stream?

    What is the difference between the iCloud Photo Library and the Upload to My Photo Stream options in the iCloud settings on my iPhone / iPad? Is it that uploading to the iCloud Photo Library uploads the images to iCloud (for viewing via browser) and using the Photo Stream only syncs the images between iOS devices?
    I've had an iPad for awhile but I just got my first iPhone and I'm trying to understand the sync behavior. It seems that with both options enabled (iCloud and Photo Stream), every single image, screenshot, picture downloaded from Twitter, etc is all getting lumped together in the All Photos album and then synced everywhere. I absolutely do not want this. Can I have just a Camera Roll folder that syncs between devices, and then downloads / screenshots / etc stay local to the device without syncing?
    I'm coming from Windows Phone, which worked exactly how I just described. Pictures taken with the phone went to the Camera Roll and the Camera Roll synced to OneDrive, and then images downloaded via other apps, or screenshots, went to separate albums that did not sync (unless I configured those albums to sync). This way everything was logically separated, easy to find, and I had complete control over the syncing behavior. This is what I'm trying to replicate on my iPhone.
    Oh, is it true that every image *has* to be in the All Photos albums? There's no way to move screenshots and downloads to separate albums so they don't get cluttered with pictures I take? Or can I enable a separate Camera Roll folder?

    I realize no one is twisting my arm to use anything. But that doesn't stop me from being disappointed about iOS's photo management capabilities compared to what I was used to in Windows Phone.
    I already have unlimited OneDrive storage per my Office 365 account so that's not an issue. I just assumed that iCloud would be a more elegant photo syncing solution since it's built into the OS so that was the path I wanted to pursue. However now that I have a better understanding of the iCloud solution, it's clear that I'll stick with the OneDrive app for iOS to automatically back up my photos there instead of iCloud.
    Not trying to be snarky and I do appreciate the info and links provided - those definitely helped.

  • HT201317 My photos from my iphone won't upload to my photo stream on my mac.

    I turned on iCloud on both devices and it will only upload pictures to my phone from my mac's photo stream, but when I take a picture on my phone, it wont upload to my Mac, even when I have WiFi. Please Help.

    Have you left the camera app? Upload to photo stream should start, when you leave the camera app.
    And when your iPhone is fully charged. The phone will not upload, if the battery has less than 20% left. Then the ipload willwait, unitl the phone is charged.
    On an iOS device, new photos you take will be automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. Note: My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.

  • How can I remove the pictures in photo stream? I have already turn off my photostream at the settings but when i turn it on again, the pictures still come out?

    How can I remove the pictures in photo stream? I have already turn off my photostream at the settings but when i turn it on again, the pictures still come out?

    Ok you can reset the stream from www.icloud.com
    Goto www.icloud.com
    Login with your iCould username and password.
    and login
    Then click on your name in the top right hand side of the screen next to sign out,
    it opens a window Account details with Language, Time Zone, Advanced
    Select Advanced - Then click Reset Photo Stream. and confirm, the stream will be reset and totally deleted
    I still think you should be able to remove individual pictures though, a blured image etc is a problem

  • Delete pictures from photo stream in aperture

    Downloaded the new Aperture that allows you to delete pictures from Photo Stream.  I deleted photos but those photos remain on my iphone.  What did I do wrong?

    You might try posting in the Aperture forum - there are some very knowledgeable participants there; in case you don't get any replies here.

    You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, then tap the trash icon or click Delete.

    When you delete a photo from My Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the My Photo Stream album or view on your other devices.
