Hi all.
Being a bit of a thicko here probably

But I'm sure that once I loaded photo's into my photo stream on my computer then I could see them on my iPad? It worked once before I swear, now I just added a bunch, but can't see them........

If I take a pic on the iPhone it appears in the iPad photo stream.

Hope this makes sense!!!

Sometimes it takes a little while to sync Andy.

Put them in the upload folder on your computer if I remember rightly

Hi guys.
Tried both! Doesn't seem to be happening.

Why are things so bloody difficult? Grrrrrrr!!!!

For it to work you have to have photostream enabled on all devices and all devices need to be logged in to the same iTunes account or the primary account needs to have sharing on so other devices can see content.

If you have added a lot of photos then it can be a bit slow to sync them all.

Open task manager and end the process called something like applephotodowloader. Then go into the iCloud control panel so that it restarts. That should kick it into life so that the applephotodowloader shows as using CPU which is when you know its doing something.

Very slowly but surely. Happy Fozzy

Thanks again for the advice
