    You have to have an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac to create an iCloud account.  However, if you tell your friend to create a shared photo stream and turn on Public Website, he/she will then be able to send you a link that will allow you to view the photos on the internet using your web browser.  You would not be able to comment on the photos as this requires an iCloud account, but you would be able to view them.
    You can refer your friend to this link for assistance with this: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99.

  • Icloud Photo Stream Options not working anymore

    This is what I get instead of the options for upload and download folder

    When I take a picture it shows up in Camera Roll and Photo Stream. If I check on my laptop the picture has also been downloaded to the Photo Stream folder on there.
    And that is why I told you that there is no problem with the phone, but you are more then welcome to pursue that theory.
    But there is another folder on the laptop called "Uploads" (which the iCloud Control Panel program installed) which allows me to put pictures in to and they get sent back to my iPhone to appear in it's Photo Stream. This was working fine on my iPhone 4 earlier in the week, but since I have started using my iPhone 5, it won't send the pictures for some reason.
    While any device is getting information from icloud it has to keep authenticated connection through the whole time. That is the reason I asked you to check your security on your computer, cause that connection is taking longer to upload then download. As with any advice, I may very well be wrong and you absolutely do not have to listen to my suggestions.
    You associating that problem with changes of the phone, what you do not think of is the fact that your security changes every day. Updates on your antivirus, corporate firewalls.

  • Photo Stream doesn't work on Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I installed Photo Stream and it just doesn't work. Are there any additional steps I have to take? I see "Photo Stream" icon in "My Computer" but photos are not syncing. iOS 6.1.3, iPhone 4S.

    If you are needing more drivers and Lenovo utilities I suggest you download and install ThinkVantage SystemUpdate. 
    Should you still be missing something after running it I suggest you post what you think is missing, or what you need, in order that other members can assist you.

  • TS3989 iCloud photo stream stopped updating today at about 4pm?

    I use iCloud photo stream via my PC  to upload photos to sites that are incompatible with my iPad  and iPhone. Today at about 4:00 iCloud stopped uploading photos from my iPad to my PC. It's been over 5 hours and nothing. Anyone else experiencing this problem? Does this have anything to do with the mail blackout yesterday, maybe the mail fix messed up photostream?  Are there any settings that could have been changed that I should check? If anyone has knows a way to deal with this...someone elsewhere said uninstalling iCloud on the PC then reinstalling it...can someone please tell me how to do that? Please help my business is at a complete standstill with no end in sight.

    Hello,
    For some reason, my images stopped syncing between my devices. I brought it up to one of the Genius Guys at the Apple store. They told me to go into my iCloud settings and delete the account on the device (first do a back up). Then they said for me to go back into the iCloud settings and re-enter my iCloud settings. It took a little bit for all the images to pop up, but it worked. Good luck to you.
    Cheers!

  • HT201077 iCloud Photo Stream on Windows no longer Streams

    I have a Windows PC, and have used iCloud Photo Stream for a while.  A few months ago, the streams just stopped appearing.  I have logged out, then back into iCloud.  I have changed the folders to be used for Photo Streams.  But, no matter what I do, I can no longer get streaming on my Windows PC.  The streaming between my iPhone and iPad works fine.  I suspect that this tool place with a recent upgrade of either iTunes or iCloud, but this problem has been with me for six months or longer, and I would have expected others to have had the same problem (so that it could be fixed).

    I think I have found the reason for our problems?  Photo Stream will only upload photos with a "Date Taken" date higher than the date when you initialised or when you last reset your Photo Stream.  So if you are trying to upload older photos it won't work,  They should be fresh out of the oven to be Photo Streamed.
    I have managed to Photo Stream older pictures by using windows to copy and remove all Properties and Personal Information then setting the Date Taken to todays date before mobing the photo into the Upload folder.  Still, it seems a little hit and miss so there's probably something else being checked to validate photos can be Photo Streamed.
    So iCloud will move photos between your Windows 7 machine and your iOS5 device but it's a little picky about which ones it will allow. If you can figure out what exactly are the parameters please do tell.

  • How Do I Use One PC (Windows) To Run iCloud Photo Stream for Two Users?

    How Do I Use One PC (Windows) To Run iCloud Photo Stream for Two Users? I and my wife have two Iphones (iOS 6.1.4) and we want to have use 2 iCloud accounts for one PC.

    Disregard the question. The solution has nothing to do with any "Firefox bug". Turns out that my session wasn't being managed properly. Or rather, I was accidentally deleting other users' information when new users logged in. So if I had user 1 and user 2, and user 2 logged in after user 1, some of user 1's information would be deleted, resulting in the errors.
    Oops; sorry about the false alarm. :)
    (Was hoping to retract the question, but it looks like others have a similar problem.)

  • ICloud photo stream for PC still doesn't work

    I just read this 16-page comment thread about how photos merging won't work with iCloud Control Panel 3 on PCs:  My Photo Stream is empty with iCloud Control Panel 3.0
    The thread goes back about nine months without a solution.  I have the same problem and need to find a fix.
    We have about 15 iPads for customer use at our business.  We occasionally upload photos to these devices and customers are allowed free use of the iPads.  The devices are fixed in place and connected to a power supply and WiFi.  My computer is a Windows 7 64-bit running iCloud Control Panel 3.1 on a separate WiFi network on property.  The problem is photo downloading and uploading only works intermittently.  Sometimes new photos populate in my PC's photo stream but usually they don't.  The same is true when I try to push photos from my computer onto all the iPads using the upload folder.  It usually works but not always.
    This might be a minor annoyance for an Apple customer with one iPad but it creates lots of unnecessary work for a business because I have to use Dropbox to upload photos and have someone check the iPads for inappropriate photos daily.
    The photo stream seems to work well between the iPads.  It just seems the iPads don't play well with iCloud on PCs.  I'm surprised this type of problem has persisted so long at Apple. 

    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.

  • Can't share photos using shared Photo Stream with iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    BACKSTORY: My friend took pictures of my family. I want to see the pictures he took. We live about 2.5 hours apart by car. Gas prices are too high for me to just drive down with an external hard drive to get the pictures and I might as well throw my money out the window if I were to ship him a hard drive and he ship it back. SO. I ask him if he would share photos with me and he quickly agreed. He added me to a Photo Stream  he has. ok cool. I recieve the invitation email just fine but this is the error I get when I click on the link:
    ERROR MESSAGE:
    Photo Stream
    Follow these steps to join a shared photo stream
    1.Make sure you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 6 or a Mac running OS X 10.8.2 withiPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later installed.
    2. Sign in to iCloud on your devices.
    3. Open the invitation email on an updated device and tap the Join this Photo Stream button. 
    WHAT I NEED:
    How can I view shared photo streams using iCloud Windows control panel 2.1.2.0? How can I work around this error message? I don't own any of these products that apple wants me to own in order to view these photos! I don't have the cash to go out and purchase them. What can I do to get "my" photos? Do I have to be signed into my friends apple id to see the shared photos?
    What I've tried:
    I already have the icloud control panel installed and updated to the latest version.
    I'm signed into iCloud on the control panel. (no apple id password issues)
    I have photo stream checked.
    I have my photo stream checked
    I have shared photo stream checked.
    I have tried copying and pasting the link into the address bars of Safari for Windows, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer,  and Firefox respectively and pressing enter to load. all present the same error message.
    I visited iCloud.com to see if there was anywhere to access the shared photo stream there... No option exisits
    Checked my photo stream folder in windows explorer. it's completely empty. I haven't put any of my own photos there so nothings missing per se... I just can't see my friends shared photos.
    MY SET UP:
    Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
    4gb of RAM
    iCloud control panel version 2.1.2.0
    I don't own any version of Outlook, (if that matters. I doubt that it matters at all in this case.)
    I don't have any iOS Devices or a mac capable of 10.8. My MacBook is stuck at 10.6.8. It's a late mid 2008 just before the aluminum unibody computers came out. If I had only waited another month... sigh. Murphy's Law is alive and well.
    any sugestions, especially correct answers, are welcome. please help me figure this out. Thanks in advance.

    Hello desert_dweller5,
    It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account.  The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
    Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
    Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article: 
    Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
    Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
    To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:

    Without explaining what you have tried, it might be hard to answer your question. Providing a little more detail would probably be useful to those that want to help you.

  • HT4890 How come I keep getting this message when I turn on my computer: 'photo stream has stopped working.' my pictures aren't saving on the cloud!

    How come I keep getting this message when I turn on my computer: 'photo stream has stopped working.' My pictures aren't being saved from my iphone to my computer.  I have wifi enabled on my iphone.  Thanks for your help.

    Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME.
    You can get it from here, but you are better off using K-Meleon (derived from Firefox) or Opera instead an old version of Firefox:
    [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/]
    You can try KernelEx to get Firefox 3+ to work, but it would be very slow with an old PC of less than 750Mhz. 3.5 and later supposedly doesn't work.

  • I have yet  to update my iPhone 4 to the latest iOS software. How do I save photos to my iCloud photo stream that were taken before I activated my iCloud account and photo stream ?

    I have yet  to update my iPhone 4 to the latest iOS software. How do I save photos to my iCloud photo stream that were taken before I activated my iCloud account and photo stream ?

    You have a couple of options:
    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 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.)

  • (How) can I add a photo from Finder to an iCloud photo stream?

    I'm a new Mac user and a little confused. From a Windows PC it is very simple to add a photo to an iCloud photo stream, taken that you have the iCloud plug-in installed. Just right-click a photo and select "Add to photo stream...". On my iMac, on the other hand, I have not yet figured out how or if it's even possible at all.
    I'm sure you know, please tell me and you will make my day :-)

    Drag the photo onto the iPhoto icon to import it, then drag it to the iCloud heading in the sidebar.
