Q: how do i get the photos from photostream to show up in the photostream on a windows 7 computer? I can't download them to the computer to free up space on the ipad

I can't see the photos clogging up our ipad when i hook the ipad up to the ciomputer. I can't dump them to a folder on ther computer. What I am going to end up doing is emailing them all to download and save from email..this really *****. It tells me to enable the photostream which i have done then doesnt recognize it..

iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1

    Save your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then you can import them to your computer using your usb cable, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

     

    If you want them streamed to your computer, you have to sign into your iCloud account and enable photo stream, as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.  However, you will only receive photo stream photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud (even though they may be on your iPad).
