Q: Need help getting iPad photos onto iMac

I'm trying to get my photo stream from my iPad to upload automatically via iCloud onto my Mac desktop.  I'm getting the message that all updates are complete, but the desktop still won't let me check the box to update photos via iCloud.  What to do?

    Are you referring to this checkbox:

    iP11psautoimport.png

     

    If that box is checked and it's not imorting into iPhoto disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane

    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.

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