Q: I have OS X Lion v10.7.4 why can't I select Photo Stream?

I am trying to set up my iphone, ipad and Mac to have photo stream. I can select this option on my phone and ipad but not my computer. What could be the issue?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Most likely wrong versions - but since you give us NO information any answer is purely a guess

the instructions and software requirements are here

Do you have an iCloud preference pane in your System preferences? Make sure you're signed in there with Photo Stream checked.

If you're still running 10.7.4 I suggest you download and apply the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) updater. Then sign in to iCloud in System preferences and enable Photo Share in iPhoto 11.
