Where did my photo stream go?

A few weeks ago, I created a photo stream in order to clear space on my phone. The stream had 966 photos on it. As soon as I downloaded iOS 7 for my phone, all the photos on the stream were gone. The stream is still there but it is empty. How can I retrieve these photos and if I cant, how can I find them on my computer from when they synced via iTunes previous to creating the photo stream.

    If these were photos that were only in the Photostream folder of your Photos app, but not actually part of the Photostream itself, then the iCloud Photostream only holds the past 30 days of photos.
    Use the iCloud Control Panel (if you're using Windows, download it here: iCloud for Windows - Apple Support), to see your actual iCloud Photostream.
    Your device will hold the Photostream photos until they are removed, but you should never treat your device or the iCloud Photostream as permanent storage.  You should be importing them to your computer on a regular basis for safe keeping.

  • HT5625 I backed up my phone before I tried to transfer to a new i-phone. Where did y photo stream go. It did not transfer.

    I backed up my phone to icloud before I sent it in for a replacement. Cannot find my photos on the backup. Where could they have gone?

    Photo stream photos are not included in the backup, only camera roll photos are.  In the future, if you want to back up photo stream photos, save them to the camera roll before backing up.

  • Where did my photos go? I started to move a 25GB directory of all my photos to the creative cloud and now they are gone!

    The iCloud Photo Stream only stores up to 1000 photos for thirty days.  If you have more that 1000 photos or photos nearing the 30-day mark, you should export them to another device.

  • Where did my photos go ios 8

    i installed the update ios8 on my 5c where did the rest of my photos go?

    With iOS 8 there is no Camera Roll or My Photo Stream any more.  The MPS has been replaced with the Recent Activity album.
    The CR is replaced by the Collections mode.  The closest we can get to the Camera Roll is to turn off the Summarize Photos feature in the Settings/Photos & Camera pane and view the photos in the Collections/Moments window.

  • TS3989 Where are my photo stream pictures?

    I had to remove and reinstall icloud on my iphone.  Photo stream only downloaded 37 of the 301 photos I have in it.  How do I get the rest to download?
    Thank you

    Thank you. I did not know this, and neither apparently did the Genius and the Helper I delt with today at the Apple Store.  I am older and wiser.

  • Where are my photo stream pics

    I have a new account but where have my icloud pics gone?

    You can't view your Photo Stream files at iCloud.com.
    They are merely "pushed" to your other devices and computers for viewing.

  • Where did my photos go after syncing iPod touch?

    I just downloaded a software update for my ipod touch and after it was done syncing, the photos were gone. I found the ipod touch photo folder but there were no pictures in it.  Where did they go and how do I get them back?  Thanks!

    Photos were taken from the ipod touch.  I connected to my macbook via USB and downloaded a newer verson for the ipod.  When it was all done, the photos were gone.  Can't find them.  Are they stored somewhere and can I get them back?  If not, then how do I prevent this from happening again? Thank you.

  • HT201077 where do your photo stream photos store? I can not find mine anywhere within my icloud.

    ive looked through that and it hasn't really been of any help as it doesn't guide you as to where they may ave been saved within a computer or where within the iCloud they might be saved.

    Yes.  If you have a PC but don't have the iCloud control panel for Windows, you aren't syncing your computer with your iCloud account, and are not therefore receiving photo stream photos from iCloud directly to your computer.
    If you want to back up photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there), then import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  To save them to your camera roll, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you are running Windows Vista SP2 or higher and wish to sync your computer with your iCloud account and enable photo stream, download and install the iCloud control panel for Windows from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455.  Then sign into your iCloud account and turn on photo stream, as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.

  • I reset my iPad, why did my photo stream disappear?

    We set my iPad up with my mother's apple I.d. Then reset it to link it to mine instead. Why did my photos taken with it, that were supposed to be on photo stream disappear? :-(

    Let's see if I get this right...  You had the ipad connected to icloud using some ID.  Then you reset it and now have the device connected to your icloud ID, but the photos on the photo stream under your icloud account are not there.  Right?
    The answer may be a time factor. 
    While photos in a device's photo stream album remain, the photos in the photo stream server in icloud remain for up to 30 days. So it could be that while the photos are on some other device of yours, they may not be in icloud's stream database any longer.  That's why you may not be seeing them when you just turned on photo stream on the device.
    But your photos may also be on your computer.  It is always recommended that photos be synced to a computer just as you sync photos from a camera to a computer for storage. 

  • Where is my photo stream

    I updated my 5s  to 8.0 and all my pictures from photo stream are gone. I need help with this one.  I went to photos and it states if i turn photo stream off it will delete all my pictures from this device.

    Photostream when enabled is now 'recently added'.

  • Where did my photos on my iPhone go?

    I have the iPhone 4 and I updated to ios5. Recently a good chunk of the photos I had saved on my phone disappeared. The ones that disappeared were more recently taken and my oldest ones from july are still there.  I don't know what happened bc I didn't delete them and I don't have the photo stream setting on in the iCloud app.

  • Why did my Photo Stream stop syncing properly [yet again] from my iPhone to my PC?

    I (and apparently many other users) are losing the proper connection of our Photo Stream between our iPhone and our PC. I have an iPhone 5s (using iOS 8.1.3), with which I have successfully synced Photo Stream to my PC (using Windows 7) many times. Photo Stream seems to work fine within the iPhone, but every few months or so, the Photo Stream folder on my PC stops populating the photos from my Apple device's Photo Stream. So, every few months, I end up searching the Apple Support Community for clear instructions, then end up calling Apple tech support. And in no particular order, I end up going through the typical steps of signing out and signing back into iCloud, rebooting respective devices(first device "A", then device "B", then vice versa), uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version of iCloud, etc., etc.  Eventually, after following multiple, separate instructions taking a few hours over the course of a couple of days, the issue is corrected for a few months. Is there a resource that exists that documents one [dare I say 'foolproof'] sequence of steps that will correct this reoccurring problem in a more deliberate way? Many thanks for the assistance!

    Yarp...
