Why can't we replace images in photo stream?

Shared photo streams could be great, but it has a big downside because we cannot replace images in it. How many times haven't I uploaded images that I later wanted to edit? But the only way to replace an image is to delete it and upload a new one. It will appear at the end of the stream as a new project, and all comments will disappear.
Please give us a better way to replace images, that makes it possible to keep the original place in the photo stream, and keep the comments.

    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.

  • HT4906 why can't i turn on my photo stream on my mac?

    I am unable to turn the photo stream on on my macbook pro. I have tried serching the more information and and found nothing that has helped. I want to be able to see my photos on my iPhone that I have down loaded onto my mac. I have the photo stream turned on on my phone but can check it on my mac.
    Can anyone help me.

    As long as your system and iPhoto meets the minimum requirements for the basic Photo Stream try the following:
    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • Why can't I save images from photo shop to an already existing albumn?

    I can't figure out the basics of saving opening and all that. I will edit images in photoshop and when I go to place them in my edited albumn already made up it won't let me. Also I'm downloading software and I can't seem to open any of it. I click in the desktop icon and it just keeps running so through the same installation process over and over never letting me actually open the software. I'm beyond frustrated with this dumb computer. It's out smarted me and I can't get my job done with it

    in my edited albumn
    What do you mean by your edited album?  What is it and where is it located?
    What version of system and any other applications that you are using in this workflow.

  • HT201317 Why can't I view my iPhone photo stream online?

    I have an older laptop and it doesn't support the new software for iCloud. (REALLY bummed me out that Apple did that!) without resources to purchase new - I've lost a bit of appreciation for apple in that regard (just sayin)
    Anyway, I thought iCloud was set up so you could view your streamed pictures from anywhere at iCloud.com. Am I just totally out of luck in that respect? And why would you purchase extra space for iCloud if you can't even access your pics?
    Also - I have an iPad that I can't even figure out how to get iCloud on it. The settings are there - but no iCloud in my apps.

    There is no web viewable PhotoStream except for ones you choose to share with others. You can access your pictures from iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and AppleTV) plus Macs and PCs.
    Photos aren't the only thing that uses iCloud space, so there are many reasons why you'd purchase extra.
    After signing into your iCloud account on your iPad, your data stored in iCloud (such as contacts, calendars, notes, email, bookmarks etc.) automatically appears in the various apps that iCloud uses, such as Contacts, Calendars, Safari, Notes, Photos.
    It sounds like familiarising yourself with what iCloud does, how it works and how to use it would be beneficial to you. I'd recommend reading the Help:

  • Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture from Snapseed app?

    Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture? This is farcical and a real problem having to email them individually to myself and is totally inefficient time wise compared to previously using image capture! Why change this when it was working well and very quickly until the latest change. Now I have to move files from downloads into an appropriate folder, after emailing each individual edited image to myself, then I have to open in Photoshop and rename the file. This is ludicrous and takes forever to do!

    Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.

    There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
    You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

    why cant i save phone image to photo album...its show save this image to your phone app?,,,,,but no image is save

    Hi FANMixco,
    To be clear, you can see the image from your file system but cannot access it from code?
    I'd like to know what could be my bug because I don't understand why I can access from the URL,
    -> If you can access the image from URL, you should definitely download it and use it, I'm not quite understand your question now.
    I'm not knowledgeable with chmod under Linux, let's say if we give it full accessibility, what will be the result?
    Anyway if you can see the image from file system, that already means the upload is succeed, I think you may need get some suggestion from php side to see how can we save the image with a correct permission.
    I will move the question to off topic, since the question is on the server side but not client side, which is out of the forum support scope, thanks for your understanding.

  • Why can't I send images via text

    Why can't I send images via text?

    Do you have data enabled? MMS enabled? While it doesn't count against your data plan, your phone should be able to send small photos, but does require a data connection.

  • Why can't i fit my full photo as a wallpaper?

    Why can't i fit my full photo as a wallpaper? I want to use a photo i had before the ios7 upgrade, but when i try to fit the whole photo as a wallpaper, it always zooms in. I dont want my photo to be zoomed in when i want to change the wallpaper, i want the whole full photo to show up as my wallpaper. Can this be fixed? I never had this problem until i downloaded the new software ios7

    I kinda found a way to fit your full photo as a wallpaper.  Its a bit of a hassle, but this method can be temporarly used until apple fixes the wallpaper issue. For now what i do is i downloaded an APP called PIC COLLAGE, its free. And i put one photo(or as many as you want) in the center of the collage in the app. I minimized the photo(only) so the whole photo can come out as a wallpaper. Once you put the minimized photo in the middle of the collage, you can save it and use it as a wallpaper. When your about to change the wallpaper, Zoom in into your photo collage you saved so you can fit it on your screen completely. You can even change the background of the collage which can make your wallpaper look even better when its your using it as a landscape mode. Thats the best tactic i can come up with, but it looks great even with the moving motion. You guys try it out. This could be a stress reliever lol

  • Why can 't I store images on my SD care in Lightroom mobile for Android

    I don't understand why I can't store images on my SD card. I get that a mobile app can't ever have the same functionality as the desktop version without taking up all the memory, but what on earth made someone think it was a good idea to store images in memory that is not only highly limited, not upgradable, but also used by other apps and more importantly the OS. Why can't I store images on the MicroSD card. That thing can be 128gb which is enough storage to work on a decent collection of images.
    I would love there to be some more control over aspects of the image, but what there is works well. It also syncs effectively and there isn't that much lag between each event, but what happens when I need to edit 50 images from a device I keep in my pocket [which theoretically should be viable]?
    The most useful feature for me is processing images I've taken with my phone, and syncing them back to Lightroom...
    Please tell me that external storage is going to be added?

    Hi canondude!
    Thanks for posting.
    Ho are you bringing the video clips over to your computer?  Are you connecting the camera or are you using a card reader?  What program are you using to import the video clips?

  • Why can't I text or email photos

    Why can't I text or email photos?  It doesn't indicate that it wasn't sent, but I know they're not being received.  Thanks!

    You need to discuss the problem with your carrier. If the phone indicates it was sent, it's getting an aknowledgement from your carrier that they received it. From that point on, it can only be your carrier, the receiving carrier or the interchange between the two that's the problem.
    Does this happen with everyone you try to text, or just some people? You can set up a free google voice account and try texting to/from that.

  • Why can't I click and drag photos anymore?

    Why can't I click and drag photos to the desktop to email?

    OK--Think I finally discovered the issue. I'm using a trackball and keyboard setup from Euphonix that communicates with the Mac via Ethernet and TCP/IP. Aperture cannot deal with mouse strokes transmitted this way. If I switch to a USB mouse connected directly to the Mac, the brushes work normally. Still a disappointment since the Euphonix is my default keyboard/mouse and I don't really want to keep a separate USB mouse hooked up.....
