Q: Accessing Photos on iCloud Drive

Photos is nowhere to be found in my iCloud Drive. Numbers, Pages, AudioNote are there, but no Photos. And they are not streaming between my devices either. Although yesterday they were streaming.

I'd be grateful for early help. All the latest updates on both iPhone and iPad.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

With iCloud Photo Library, Photos are not stored in iCloud Drive. If you use a computer and log in to https://www.icloud.com/ you will see a number of separate apps -- Photos is one of those apps and iCloud Drive is another -- both are part of iCloud but the photos are not stored in iCloud Drive.

Try signing out of your iCloud account, then sign back in to see if that might help.
