Why is the content of Photo Stream different on each device?

I work on a 13" MacBook Pro and also have an iPad and iPhone 4s. I edited my Photo Stream photos down to a tight collection of 220 pictures and fully expected that to reflect on my iPhone and iPad, however, it simply is not the same. The iPad has more than 400 pictures in Photo Stream. I want to set the standard collection my MacBook Pro and have that reflect across all devices. Any suggestions on how to make that happen?
Thanks!

I beleive when Photo Stream first started it only sent photos to other devices and didn't delete them so you'll have to start fresh. Be aware it can take a little time for the changes to take effect depending on your upload speed of your internet.
I think to start out you'll have to delete all the photos on each device first which will also delete the new ones from the stream. Make an album in iPhoto on your Mac with all the photos in My Photo Stream. Then delete all the photos on Photo Stream on all devices then add all the photos back to My Photo Stream on the Mac.
May I suggest setting up a Shared Photo Stream for this purpose and keep the My Photo Stream for the new photos taken with your devices. Also be aware of the 30 day 1000 photo limits on Photo Stream.

  • Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder?

    Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder that resides in my users folder?

    Problem is if I delete that .plist I'll delete those downloads.  I'm still able to launch those downloads from that location so that tells that file is probably not corrupted. I need to be able to located that folder and transfer the downloads from it before I do anything like this.  So that begs the question, where is that folder located?  When I do a folder search I'm taken to a Downloads folder, but it's not the one that is showing up from within Safari as it's contents are too different. 

  • Why is the order of my playlists different on my iPhone than on my computer or iPod?

    Why is the order of my playlists different on my iPhone than on my computer or iPod?  To clarify, I'm asking about the order of the playlists themselves (should be alpha) and not the order of the songs in the playlist.  I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 5.0.1, and a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2.

  • Can multiple people post on the same shared photo stream?

    Is there a way to have multiple people post on the same shared photo stream?
    My cousin would like to have a single shared photo stream where we can both post photos on it and comment, instead of having two separate shared photo streams. 
    We think that there should be an option for the album creator to give access to anyone he/she shares it with to enable them to also post pics on the same stream.

    The only link I have is to manage your team account http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1460939?tstart=0
    The only Adobe program/process for team work that I know of is Adobe Anywhere, but that requires a very different process

  • How can I share iphotos with others on the web using photo stream?

    The apple instructions for iPhoto 11 says:
    It’s easy to create a photo stream to share your photos. You can also view the photos you’ve already shared.
    To create a shared photo stream:
    Select the photos you want to share.
    In the toolbar, click the Share button, choose Photo Stream from the pop-up menu, and then click New Photo Stream.The New Shared Photo Stream dialog appears.
    In the To field, type the email addresses for your invitees.To enable your invitees to access the shared photo stream from an iOS device, you must provide the email addresses associated with their iCloud accounts.
    In the Name field, type a name for the photo stream.
    etc
    All I get is that photo is already shared, or no dialogues at all
    I certainly never get a chance to choose a "New Photo Stream" oenter an email address
    WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

    What version of iPhoto?

  • Why is the font of text fields different from document-text

    I am using forms in my pdf.
    I am inserting Text-Fields in the pdf-form.
    I set the color and size of text as the same as the document text as calibri 9.
    1) Why is the font different between the text-field and document content eventhough both are black font of size 9 and of type calibri. The font in the text-field is more gray and blurry. It doesnt look the same as the text in the rest of the document.
    2) why do the document-text font options differ from the text-field font options.
    One has only sizes with even numbers like 8, 10, 12. The other has odd numbers also. Why does the calibri font have 2 different size ranges for the text-fields and document-text/content.

    Yes you are correct, it is with the setting of the properties.
    Where do i report this then if it is not with the SDK but the manual setting of properties.
    Also, how do i alter this ussue with the SDK, what are the commands, does it have to be done only by Javascript?

  • Why is the library on my phone different from the one on my computer (I have iTunes Match)

    Why is the library on my phone different from the one on my computer? (I have iTunes Match) I just want the song off my computer to be the songs I have on my phone.

    Hey there Sparkly3gs,
    It sounds like your camera is not rotating as expected in the camera app. I want to recommend starting by quitting the running apps on the phone.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    I would suggest before restoring from your backup setup the device as new and make sure the camera functions as expected. Then restore from your backup and verify it still works.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • ICal has dropped a monthly event for the previous four months....... why did it disappear? and where is it?  It was the same event but a different day each month.

    iCal has dropped a monthly event for the previous four months....... why did it disappear? and where is it?  It was the same event but a different day each month.

      I installed this same digitizer in my T|X some weeks ago.  Some discussion of my experience may be found in this Usenet posting and subsequent thread.
      The stock digitizer in my T|X had always had some significant alignment issues (for which PowerDigi was able to compensate very nicely) and sensitivity which was uneven, but which usually required a heavier touch than I liked.
      Eventually, it began to develop a “dead spot” near the upper left.  My T|X was under warranty, so I probably ought to have sent it in to Palm to be repaired, but I wasn't willing to be without it for the required amount of time, and I've heard enough reports of other T|X owners getting unsatisfactory results this way.  I'd heard enough good reports about the PDAPARTS.COm digitizer, that I decided that the only acceptable way to repair my T|X would be to install one of those.
      After however many weeks it has been, I am still very pleased with the results.  It continues to work flawlessly; it is much more sensitive, so it doesn't require nearly so heavy a touch, and I very much like the hard feel that it has, compared to the spongier feel of the stock digitizer.
      My wife's T|X still has its stock digitizer, and it has so far not shown any of the same problems that mine did, or for which the T|X has become notorious, but the feel is noticeably inferior.  She's content with it the way it is, but I think that if I were to ever buy another T|X for myself, I wouldn't wait for the stock digitizer to fail.  The PDAPARTS.COM digitizer is simply superior in every imaginable way; and, in my opinion, a T|X with the PDAPARTS.COM digitizer installed is sufficiently superior to one with the stock digitizer (even if it isn't defective) to be very much worth the expense and trouble of installing it.

  • Why can't I get photo stream or icloud to work with windows vista?

    Why can't I get photo stream or icloud to work with windows vista?

    Have you tried quitting Pages completely, restart the iPad and then go back to Pages and see if they will upload?
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Why my mbp doesn't photo stream wireless

    why my mbp doesn't photo stream wireless

    I'll assume you are talking about an iOS device that takes photos. 
    Check the following:
    From your Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and make sure the slider is set to the ON position.  If grayed out, check Restrictions in Settings>General.
    From the Home screen, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, make sure the slider is set to ON, and that your device is connected to a wireless network.
    Ensure that Camera app is closed on the device where you took the photo. Photo Stream will not upload photos from an iOS device until the Camera app is closed.
    Ensure your iOS device has not fallen below 20% battery power. To preserve battery life, Photo Stream downloading and uploading are disabled when the battery reaches this threshold. Downloading and uploading will resume once you charge your device, and the battery charge is greater than 20%.
    Note that when photo stream is turned on, only pictures taken from that point on will go to the stream, not existing photos.  For those, sync them to a computer using itunes and USB cable.

  • Hi,   My photo stream used to work fine.  But after removing all the photos to separate folders in my computer, my new photos are no longer streaming to my PC.  They appear in the photo stream on my other devices - iPhone5 and iPad Mini.  It's just my PC

    Hi,
    My photo stream used to work fine.  But after removing all the photos to separate folders in my computer, my new photos are no longer streaming to my PC.  They appear in the photo stream on my other devices - iPhone5 and iPad Mini.  It's just my PC that's missing the photos.
    When I open the iCloud control panel, I cannot turn on the photos.  That option is ghosted.  I'm running on Windows 7 with iCloud 3.0.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?  All help is appreciated!  Thanks!

    Hi Kevinmvb,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below may be able to help you with this.  It sounds like you may have moved your photos out of the Uploads folder where they need to reside.

  • Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

    Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

    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

  • How to erase some of the pictures in photo stream

    How to delete some of the pictures in photo stream?

    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.
    On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, then select 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.
