Q: Downloading Videos from a shared stream
I am trying to save a video from a shared photo stream. I have read that you cannot do it on your iOS device and save to your photo stream. I am trying to save this to a PC. In the FAQ you list:
Can photos and videos be saved or downloaded from a shared album?
Yes. After photos are shared, anyone who can view the shared album can download and keep them permanently. Videos can only be downloaded to a Mac or PC. On an iOS device, videos are streamed from iCloud and can't be downloaded.
- On a compatible iOS device, you can save photos to your Photos tab or Camera Roll.
- In iPhoto or Aperture for Mac, you can add or copy shared photos or videos to your Library.
- On a Windows PC, you can copy photos and videos from a shared album to any folder.
- On the web, you can download photos and videos directly to your computer from the detail view of each photo or video.
My question is that (in bold) it lists that you can copy them to a PC, but when I am on icloud i do not see the shared streams listed. Can you please tell me the procedure to do this?
iPhone 6, iOS 8.3
