Q: Can't see Photostream in iCloud

I've just backed up my iPhone 4S to iCloud and when I logged onto iCloud on my computer, the Photostream is not showing. The Photostream is On on my iPhone and is showing on my computer but not on the iCloud. Should it be showing on my iCloud account too?

A:

The photos are in the cloud, but you can't see them at iCloud.com.

You shouldn't rely on photo stream as a back up in any case, always back up the photos from your computer.

Welcome to the Apple Community.

Photo stream isn't available at iCloud.com. If you use a computer to view photo stream you can do so in iPhoto or Aperture, or in the photo stream folder.

Thanks. So the only backup of my photostream is on my computer and not somewhere in the cloud? That means I have to make sure i back up my computer too, right?
