Q: why doesn't iPhoto shared photo stream update

I have created a shared phot stream on my IOS devices and they update ok.

I have invited others and they are allowed to post.

I can see all posted photo's on all IOS devices.

I cannot see any phot's posted by oyhers on my Mac in iPhoto.

iPhoto updates fine when I post from an IOS device but does not when someone else posts.

Ny ideas how I can see all shared photo's in iPhoto on my Mac the same as all the IOS subscribers

iPhoto '11, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    Are your IOS devices on IOS 7? And have your shared streams been created on IOS 7?

    iPhoto '11 on Mt. Lion is not yet fully compatible with the new Shared Photo Streams format on IOS 7 devices. It does not yet allow two-way sharing of streams. The photos that others add to your shared photo streams are not visible in iPhoto '11. You will have to wait for an iPhoto '11 update, that will bring the full compatibility with the new Photo Steam formats and probably will come with the next MacOS X release Mavericks.

    I guess that's the issue. Thanks
