After years of working flawlessly, photo stream is only transferring some of my photos from my iPhone 4s to iPhoto on my Mac and iPad, even sequential pictures. I have rebooted everything to no avail. There are too many to email; can I move them manually? Suggestions, please!
How many do you have in there? Note there are limits in terms of number and total space taken up.
My Camera Roll has 1,487 photos. My Photo Stream has 93.
Reliable and unblocked WiFi service? Photo Stream only works thru WiFi (on all ends).
My phone has been doing the same at random times.
This what I did-
Settings>iCloud>Turn OFF Photostream sync>Turn ON Photostream sync
Make sure you are connected to Wifi, then click Storage>Back up now
Worked perfectly for me!
Thanks for the informational links. The Apple Store set everything up for me and all devices have been working beautifully for about two years now. Photo Sharing is turned on but transfers are partial and spotty. Something has changed.
Have you tried restarting your phone and your MAC?
I'm having trouble following your instructions. Settings>iCloud> then there's not Photostream sync?
I'm sorry for not being clear-
Click photos>My Photo Stream>Toggle to the left> then toggle it back> then back up
I did what you suggested. The 93 photos that were in my iPhone photo stream disappeared, then repopulated with 102. The problem is, I took 166 on vacation last week and only 97 have shown up on my Mac.
Yes, multiple times.
I am sorry to hear that, I wish it would have worked for you. Often times I notice that if I take multiple pictures in sequential order or pictures with the shutter feature, it only uploads some.
If your concern is getting your vacation pictures secure, the best method is to plug in your iPhone to your computer and manually extract them, just as you would a flash drive.
Sorry! 😟
iPhone Photo Stream not working properly anymore!
