Q: photo stream on new mac

I just bought a new mac. I have my iphoto streaming on my old mac and my iphone and my ipad. I use icloud. On the new mac, i set it up to use my iCloud/ itunes account. I have now added pictures to my new mac but they dont show up on my iphone or other devices. How can I get them to?

iMac (27-inch, Late 2012), iOS 6.1.3

Make sure the checkbox "Automatic Upload" in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane is checked. Then if the photos don't appear soon in the other devices do the following:

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane

and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.

(Screenshot does not have Automatic Upload checked but your iPhoto should have it checked)

Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.
