Howdy LG Nikomonte,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
I understand from your post that you used to use My Photo Stream with iPhoto, and you would now like to use that feature in Photos. The functionality has not changed with My Photo Stream and the Photos app, so I suggest verifying your settings are configured as shown below.
If you enabled iCloud Photo Library, your My Photo Stream photos from your other devices can be found in the All Photos album. If you didn't enable iCloud Photo Library and you don't see any photos in the My Photo Stream album, follow these steps:
- Make sure your Mac has an active Internet connection. Without Internet, updates to My Photo Stream won't appear in Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture.
- From your Mac, choose System Preferences > iCloud. Make sure you use the same Apple ID as on your other supported devices.
- Open Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture. Then choose Preferences > iCloud (or Photo Stream).
- If you're using Photos, iPhoto 9.4 or later, or Aperture 3.4 or later: Make sure that My Photo Stream is selected. Then, if you want all future iPhoto or Aperture photo uploads to also upload to My Photo Stream, select Automatic Upload.
If you're using iPhoto 9.2.2 through 9.3.2, or Aperture 3.2.3 through 3.3.2: Select Enable Photo Stream and Automatic Import.
