Q: How do I unbundle a burst of photos on Mac version?

I have a bundle of photos, 16 to be exact, that was taken in burst mode from my iPhone. How do I unbundle that burst of pictures in Photos for Msc? I only see one picture.

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2009), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1), iPhone5s, iPad3, iOS7, Mavericks

    Double-click on the photo & then on the "Make a Selection..." button near the top left of the expanded image. Choose which ones you want to "unburst" by scrolling through the thumbnails at the bottom of the window & clicking on them. Click "Done" to finish.

    Nope, there is no "Make a Selection" button.

    Apparently it's a setting you have to set in your PHONE. My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support

    Where are my burst mode photos in My Photo Stream?

    When you take photos using burst mode, only your favorite photos are imported to your device. In iOS 7.1 or later, you can choose to save all photos you take using burst mode to My Photo Stream. Tap Settings > iCloud > Photos and turn on Upload Burst Photos.
