Photo streaming not working

I have 5000 photos on my iPhone and iCloud Photo Library turned on, as well as Photo Streaming.

I have 35,000 photos on my Macbook - so have not turned on iCloud Photo Library, but have turned on Photo Streaming.


For a while the photos from my iPhone would stream to my Macbook (quite sporadically) - but this stopped on 11th Feb.


Do you have any ideas why this might happen?


I'd much appreciate your help.

MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14

Are you still seeing an My Photo Stream album in Photos on your Mac? Or is this album not shown?

is My Photo stream enabled in both places on your Mac - in System Preferences > iCloud > Photos > Options and in Photos > Preferences > iCloud? If it got disabled in the System preferences, enable it again and restart your Mac.


Which system version is running on your iPhone? Which model is it?

What changed on February 11? Did you install an update on the iPhone?


Are you seeing the missing photos, that are not appearing in my Photo Stream on your Mac on your iCloud Web Page at www.icloud.com in the Photos.app?
