Q: Photo stream not on computer anymore--it only shows the old photos.  Icloud says it is backing up successfully but pics not streaming to my computer

My photos used to upload automatically to my Windows Computer every day.  A couple months ago it stopped uploading.  Icloud says it is backing up successfully but my pics aren't streaming to my computer.  What is wrong?

    Sorry but your post does not make sense

     

    Does this involve iPhtoo for the Mac (the subjedt of this forum)in any way? If so what version and what version of the OS?

     

    iCloud is not a backup for photos - it will backup your IOS devices but the photos are not seperatly scccessable there - and the backup have nothing to do with transfering photos between devices - PhotoStream is used to transfer images - see the FAQs, sofrtware requirements, set up instructions and troubleshooting tips here

    This is for my Windows 7 Computer.  It used to work perfectly and stream all the photos from phone but now it has stopped about 2 months ago.  Icloud is backing up fine but the Photo Stream is not streaming photos to computer.  Photo Stream is clicked under Icloud and my phone shows it is supposed to stream photos but it's not been doing it for months now.

    This is not the right place as note above - this is the iPhoto for Mac forum

     

    I provided the link for iCloud above - did you look at it? If that is not enough then you need to post in the correct forum

     

    You can  try turning it off on all devices, re-booting them and turning it back on
