    Photo stream will only transfer photos when a Wi-Fi connection is present, are you certain you have a Wi-Fi connection. If so:

     

    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.

    I tried resetting photostream but I received an error that there is a network problem.  I tried this several times.  Any suggestions?

    None of these suggestions helped me.  When I want to resent PhotoStream it tells me that if I turn it off it automatically deletes all the pictures I have there - well, that's stupid since that's the last thing I want to hapen!!!  So how DO the photos taken on stream back up/ synch with Camera Roll .... The new upgrades really do not work!!!  AAARRRRGGGHHHHH!
