Why arent photo's taken on my iPhone appearing in Photostream

I am having the same problem. I have marked all the photos in my iphone with the appletv check and can see each photo on my tv but I cannot get them into the photostream.

Everything was working fine with my photostream on my iPhone 5 with no problems until I downloaded the latest update 2 days ago.

i have the same issue.

the photostream used to work fine until few days before i upgraded to ios7 beta 2. Then the photostream stopped working....and i even cannot share photos to others (they can only see the topic of shared photostream but all photos cannot load).

However, its interesting that when i use another icloud account on the same idevice, the photostream works!

Anyone can help me to bring the photostream back to my icloud account? lot a shared photostream and memorys!

Still struggling here!

Apart from the need for PhotoStream to be switched on ....

1. The camera app on your phone must be closed for photos to move to PhotoStream

2. Your battery must be greater than 20%

Hope that helps !

I have the exact same problem. I take pictures on my iphone 5. Pictures show up in Camera Roll but not in photo stream or photo library. I have everything set to "on" and am logged in to the same account on my phone, computer, and icloud. Nothing is transferring over wifi, as it is supposed to. Then..I just plugged my phone in to my computer to transfer some music and lo and behold, all of a sudden, I see, on my phone, that photos are being transferred from the camera roll to the photo stream. Maybe the phone actually needs to be plugged in to the computer for the transfer to occur? Does it have something to do with flowing through ituned? I thought it was supposed to happen automatically whenever you are in a wifi zone...isn't that kind of the point...so you don't have to be tethered to your computer? Or, am I doing something wrong?

Photo stream photos are transferred when the camera app is closed, your devices is connected to wifi and it has at least 20% battery life remaining. It has nothing to do with your computer or iTunes. If it's not working for you, you may need to try restoring your phone.

"You may need to restore you phone" is not helpful. While incorrect set-up is undoubtedly the source of some posters' problems, it appears all too clear that ICloud and Photo Stream don't play well together and that syncing is buggy. I've restored a phone and not everything restored. Apple has a problem with this software and needs to make signficant improvements.

I've managed a way of salvaging photographs that do not make it from ones camera roll to their photostream. If your photostream is somewhat working, simply take screenshots of the pictures individually then crop away the unnecessary. Basically this is the only manual way I have found to work well with getting photos from point A to point B on my iPhone then eventually point C...

OK, I think I might have hit something useful. Please allow me to share it. I hope somebody will try this and see how wrong I might have been.

Before Mavericks, my wife would go out, take pictures with her iPhone, call me, I will, at home, go to iPhoto, go to Photo Stream, download her photos, photoshop them, put them back in iPhoto, and she will see them in her photo stream. Other times, she will come home, tell me about the photos she took that day, and I will do the about so she can then share them via iMessage or What's App on her phone.

Not any more with Mavericks. The pictures she took flatly refuse to show up in photo stream.

Desperate. I did the following:

in her iPhone, I select all the pictures she took, and upload them to photostream (share in her icloud album).

in my MBP, I quit iPhoto, relaunch iPhoto, and now her photos show up in her icloud shared album.

It works, but it *****, for this old man of old habits.

I think the guys who originally wrote OS X are either all retired or whatever and the kids who are now responsible for OS X have no idea where the right hand, the left hand, the left foot and the right foot are.

This now generation does not seem to have a sense of time line, team work, or unity.

IMovie, iPhoto, iTunes are all in different countries if not planets and they can't talk to each other. None of them kids take pictures, let alone use Mac OS X iPhoto iTunes and iMovie at serious armature level. They just take casual pictures of their girlfriends and delete them the next morning. That's life. Apple is a toy, not a tool. They will never be serious corporate computers. Their stock should never be more than $50, let alone $500.

Sigh.

I've seen many post with the same problem. Has anyone fixed it? I too can't get all photos to stream from my iphone to other devices. So weird that only some stream??? Help!

Same issue. Some photos taken with iphone 4s will show in photo stream on the iphone and some won't. Very frustrating. I hope Apple fixes this soon!!! This is a recent issue so I have to believe it came with the recent updates to ios7

My experience is that photos taken from the lockscreen are NOT send to photostream. Photos taken with the camera app after login are send to photostream. Frustrating...

I have a few observations to add in here. A few posts up, someone suggested that the camera app needed to be closed in order for the photostream to update. I have found this to help with the problem. For those who may not be familiar, simply pressing the home button (iPhone or iPad) does not close the app. Double click the home button so that you get the multi-page view of all that is open on your device, then flick the offending app off the top of the screen like the offender it is. Go back to your Photos and you MAY find it updated or updating with the photos which were previously AWOL.

Also, be sure that your photo stream is not full. Don't know specifics on the later models, but the iPhone 4s will only allow 1000 photos in the stream. Remove unwanted photos from the photostream on that device, and the later ones should begin populating.

Thanks. My phone was down to 16%. Once I plugged it in, the photos appeared in my Photo Stream. You're a star.
