Use icloud to get photos from iphone to mac

I have configured icloud to the best of my knowledge on iphone and MacBook Pro. Is there a trick to get photos taken on iphone available on the Mac?

In addition to activating Photostream in the icloud settings, you have to turn on Photostream on both the iPhone and in iPhoto on your mac.

Can I use iCloud to store photos from iPhone and Mac?

I would like to use iCloud like Dropbox. I have photos that were taken on my iphone and photos that are loaded on my Mac from a camera that I would like to store in the Cloud. I would also like others be able to download their photos of this event to the same Icloud account. Is that possible?.

The only way you can store photos in iCloud indefinitely is if you add them to a shared stream. However, when you do this, the photo will be at a lower resolution than the originals.
My photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for all your devices to receive them. The only other photos in iCloud are camera roll photos stored in your backup. However, you can't see anything in the backup unless you restore it to your device. Also, if you delete the photos from your device and continue to back it up, the backup that contains the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't, and they wil be lost.

Do I need iPhoto to get photos from iPhone to mac

I want to move photos to my mac.
Where do I find the photos in my mac?'

You can use iPhoto and/or Aperture.
iPhoto is part of the basic install on every Mac.

In addition to the very sound and useful information posted by Lawrence Finch, there is also a way to save the photos from the photo stream to the camera roll on the iPad so that even if the photo stream is turned off, the photos will remain on the iPad.
Launch the photos app and them open the Photo Stream album. Select every photo that you want to save by tapping on them, then tap in the action/sharing icon and select - Save to Camera Roll.
Having said that, the information that Lawrence shared with you is very important and the instructions in both articles are very useful. Make use of them.

Can i set my iPhone 4 as a new phone then use iCloud to get information from before restoring the phone?

Can i set my iPhone 4 as a new phone then use iCloud to get information from before restoring the phone? I've restored my iPhone 4 thru iTunes and now trying to set it up using iCloud but it says 'no back ups available'.
I was upgrading my OS system thru iTunes but the plug on my macbook came out and battery ran flat half way thru. This jammed my iPhone 4.
I think it's to do with the OS system. That if i take it to the previous OS system it might work. But since i'm in phone set up mode i can't get into general setting to change it back.
So can i set it up as a new phone and then use icloud to restore info? Or shld i set it up thru iTunes and then iCloud (but since it jammed half way thru upgrading and i've restored i don't think iTunes has any of my previous info)? Or is there something else i can do?

No. You can set up as a new device or restore from iCloud or iTunes. It looks like you backed up with iTunes, so you can't restore with iCloud. To backup your device in iCloud, go to Settings > iCloud and activate it

I am unable to import photos from iPhone to Mac.

I am unable to import photos from iPhone to Mac. The most recently taken photos are not showing up on the screen ready to import as usual. Any thoughts as to why?

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

If you want your photos to end up in iPhoto, just do a normal sync. If you don't want to use iPhoto, or if you just want to put your phone photos in a normal visible folder on the desktop, luckily when you plug in the iPhone a Mac sees it like a camera or card reader. This means the iPhone will show up in common applications that have an import-from-camera feature. I've copied photos off my iPhone using Apple Image Capture, PhoneView, and Adobe Lightroom, for example.

Problems transferring photos from iphone to mac, iphoto says there is nothing to download...

Hi, I need to transfer photos from iphone to mac. My mac can 'see' my iphone with iphoto open, but the box says there are no photos to download. Could anyone help me please? This has never been a problem before (it was fine about 2 weeks ago). I've tried turning both devices off and have spent a couple of hours trying to search for this problem on the internet. I can't remember when I updated to OS 7.1 but I guess that was recently; could this be the problem? Thank you so much.

This has nothing to do with iOS 7.1
Is your phone unlock when it is connected to your Mac?

You don't. File transfer, by Bluetooth, has never been supported on any iPhone. To import pics/videos in your camera roll, read here:

transfer photes from iphone to mac using icloud ?

Connect the iPhone to your Mac and launch iPhoto. It will detect the photos and indicate those that are not already in the library so you can import them.
Be careful in letting iPhoto delete the photos from the iPhone. It's best to delete them manually from the iPhone so you have more control over what gets deleted.
Once you have your iPhone and iPhoto setup with Photo Stream to automatically import all new photos taken with your iPhone it'll be a seamless transfer:

How to get photos from iphone to ipad ...?

I am tyring to get photos from my iphone to my ipad...the photos from the ipad moved to my iphone but photos from the iphone did not move to the ipad. Photostream settings are on; wifi is connected on both devices...

You're welcome. It is possible to stream to older photos to your iPad by adding them to a shared photo stream and inviting yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99). Another option is use an app like PhotoSync to transfer photos between your devices over wifi.
