Photos not added to "My Photo Stream"

Do you need to add pictures manually after they are taken to a photo stream?

Thought it was working last week, but now it does not seem to work. I need to create a new album and add pictures from the camera roll manually? Is this supoosed to be a new and improved feature of iOS6?

iPhone 4S, iOS 6

My photo stream is not updating either. I realized that going back to 10/2 my photostream stopped syncing with my camera roll and my Mac & iPad. It always worked perfectly before this...so I'm not sure what the heck is going on.


Has your's started working yet? What did you do to fix it. I've reset my phone and still no luck. Yes, on WiFi, fully charged devices...no dice. I can manually (cable) sync my photos to my Mac, but if I wanted to do that I woudln't have purchased a Mac.

Yes, I've got both set to on. I've reset my phone and everything...it will not work.


I don't think it's my router, because when I add photos on my Mac (using photobooth) it adds the pictures to my stream. When I take pictures using my iPad it also adds them to my stream. Only my phone won't work. I'm going to have to make the hour drive to the closest Apple store I think...

I am having a similar issue with Ipad 2 latest IOS. From MBP to ipad, no issues from Ipad to my MBPs no photos.


After enabling photo stream on your ipad it should be automatic that any picture taken will upload to your photo stream but this is not happening.


Both the MBP and the Ipad are on the same wifi network and it works one way but not the other. I have no issue with accessing the internet on either the MBP or the Ipad....


Okay I just did a further test...guess what, I turn my cellular data off and took some pictures, worked like a charm.


So Ipad, IOS 6, Apple has an issue here in regards to wifi and cellular data both connected...


Need others to verify this, if your photos are not appearing in your photo stream on your ipad after you have snapped them.....try turning off cellular data and then retake them again and see.



Cheers
