Q: Shared Photostream not downloading all images in Aperture 3.4.5
I'm running Aperture 3.4.5 on an iMac with 10.8.5 installed. I'm having problems with Shared Photostreams, in that the numbers seen in the Aperture library aren't the same as on iOS devices, or in iPhoto libraries.
On the following devices, the numbers of photos in my shared Photostreams (note *shared* - therefore not limited by the usual Photstream nonsense rules) are all identical (numbering anywhere between 10 and 200 images, depending on the stream)
- My iPhone
- My iPad
- Wife's iPhone
- Wife's iPad
- Wife's iPhoto installation on OS X 10.9
…yet in Aperture, every Shared Photostream is missing a handful of images, e.g.
- Only 102 images instead of 148 in one
- Only 64 instead of 66 in another
- 32 instead of 38 in another…
It's hugely frustrating and I can't find mention of it anywhere else online (plenty of griping about the regular, 30-day, 1000-images Photostream, but I had thought Shared Photostreams worked more reliably and intuitively than that)!
What I have already tried, to no avail:
- I have closed & reopened Aperture.
- I have repaired disk permissions & restarted.
- I have switched Photostreams off and and back on and let the whole lot re-download again…
Nothing. Still the exact same images are missing.
Anyone else seen this?
Any advice?
Thanks
