sharing photos on iOS

In iOS, we can add multiple accounts to: email, contacts, calendar and so on.  Why we can not choose which iCloud account we want for our photos?  My wife and I have separate apple ID, you can easily share contacts that we can simply use some iCloud/s account we want on our phones.  Why can not do this with pictures?  My wife and I want to take pictures of our distinct features but want all the photos on a same goto iCloud account.  Any suggestions?  iPhone 6 s more, ios10 and iPhone 7, ios10.

First, Apple does not have Apple ID to share as you mention, i.e. for contacts.  If you want to share photos, the only way it can be done is through - iCloud, sharing photos - Apple Support

  • Family sharing and iCloud iOS 10?

    Hello

    I'm after some tips on iCloud and sharing of the family. (devices have been upgraded to iOS 10)

    I used to have several devices (2 iPhones and iPads 2) 1 Apple ID.

    Because of mixed text, etc. messages and cross the composition, I enabled sharing of family.

    The original Apple ID (now used to connect iCloud as well) is on my iPhone and has the credit card for App store purchases related.

    My wife has her own Apple ID / iCloud login & "procurement families" are related to the "original" ID

    2 questions:

    1. I want to be able to share contacts through synchronization iCloud (currently syncs OTA to Outlook on a Windows PC) - I know that this could not be done directly under iOS8/9, but I was wondering if this can now be done under iOS10?
    (I know there was a way to have the 2nd iCloud account on each of the devices for synchronization of contacts, but want to avoid if possible workarounds).

    Maybe there is a way to have the "original" as the master Apple ID / organizer represent (Sync contact, purchases, etc.) and introduced myself as a member of the family, as I did for my wife? (ie. so we have 3 apple ID for 2 devices) - is it possible?

    2. Similarly, was it an easy Save photos of each device to this single account iCloud "original"?  (he has 50 GB storage, barely used so much space to save the photos on the other phone).

    Thank you

    1 iCloud contacts cannot be shared.

    2. in order to save photos to each device, as you say, each device must be connected to the same ID of Apple/iCloud.  Why not consider sharing photos via the sharing of the family?

  • Cannot start sharing photos icloud

    I have several apple devices that can access iCloud, photo sharing, but not my primary iMac. However, if I register in a guest account, I can access iCloud, photo sharing. I guess it's a system file problem, but don't know which.

    When I go to Shared in pictures, I get a message, "iCloud Photo Sharing is available in the library of Photo System." I toggled iCloud Photos on and outside, signed in and out of the iCloud, removed com.apple.cloudphotosd, among others and still no love. Any ideas?

    El Cap 10.11.6, but had the same problem in older versions as well.

    You give confused information

    What exactly you are doing - sharing photos to iCloud and iCloud photo library are two totally different services - with iCloud, photo sharing you do not access to ' ' photos - you invite people to subscribe to shared albums

    What version of the operating system and Photos are automatically using, and what are your settings on your Mac and on every IOS device iCloud. And as for the library system - launch Photos using the library wanted and then in the preferences to set it as the system library (if defined as system library is grayed out it's library system)

  • One of my shared photos albums is frozen?

    I have several shared photo albums and did not have any problems until recently when the album that I share with my girlfriend stopped updating.

    I almost always add my photos from my iPhone, but on May 17, I got a few photos on my iPad, I wanted to add. I added 14 photos and never really thought more about it. Since that time I had been adding many more photos from my iPhone, but I noticed that it never came on my iPad. Then I noticed that on 14 photos on my iPad, I added, only 2 people appeared in the album shared on my iPhone.

    Today, my girlfriend told me that she had recently added a bunch of pictures, but I never had my iPhone or my iPad. So I asked him to check who were the last pictures got me in his shared album, and it turns out that the 2 pictures that made successfully from my iPad to the album shared on my iPhone were also the last pictures got me.

    I tried to disable and the reactivation of the shared albums in iCloud settings on my iPhone and my iPad, but that doesn't seem to force the update anything. I can also confirm that my devices properly receives photos in all other shared albums, and photo streams also seems to synchronize photos between my iPhone and iPad successfully (photos on the iPhone appear on my iPad and vice versa).

    Clues why this a shared private album could suddenly break and what I could do to fix it?

    Apparently, the album was full. iOS could not provide this information, but once I got to my Mac and tried to add a new photo in the album, he says the album was full. So in case anyone else has this problem, there you go

  • How to remove an album of "person" in photos (10 iOS)

    Hello

    I want to delete an entire album of a person in the People in Photos (10 iOS).

    I don't want to hide it, I want to remove it.

    It was created by mistake and actually... I tried to remove the only picture that was part of it, but now I have an empty album that I can't remove. It is written "1" under the number of photos in there, but it's actually empty.

    The only thing I can do with it is to hide...

    But it's stupid, I want to just remove the album completely.

    Any idea?

    Hi Thierry Beja,.

    I understand that you want to remove an album from your Photos app running the new iOS 10. No problem! You can manage your albums by following the steps below.

    Manage albums. When viewing your album list, tap on change.

    Rename an album: tap the name of the album, and then enter a new name.

    Rearrange albums: Tap to enlarge the thumbnail of the album, and then drag it to another location.

    Delete an album: press the button Delete.

    Note: You cannot delete photo albums created for you, as the people, places and Selfies.

    Organize photos and videos

    Please use the Apple Support communities to post your question. This should have deleted unwanted album without delay!

    Good day.

  • Shared photos showing the data flow but it is off

    Hello

    My phone keeps telling that storage is almost full and when I went into settings - storage - and camera is that Shared Photo Stream uses 4 KB. I don't even have Shared Photo Stream active... anyone know how to find these photos or how to remove the data used? Thank you

    Hello monkeyface0508,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that photo stream is too much space on your iPhone 6 sec, even if you do not use. I know how valuable storage capacity can be on any device. I want to ensure that your data and storage are accurate.

    Given that you have confirmed that the photo stream is turned off, I recommend you to restart the phone. This can solve many unexpected behaviours. Follow the steps below to restart.

    1. Press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Red slider appears.
    2. Drag the slider to turn off your device completely off.
    3. Once the device turns off, press and hold the sleep/wake button again until you see the Apple logo.

    Restart your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    In addition, check your Photos app to see if there is an album of Photo Stream shown. Please use the link below for more information on checking your storage space.
    Check the storage on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Have a great day!

  • Is there an optimal resolution for iCloud sharing Photos

    Is there an optimal resolution for iCloud Photos sharing on computers, iPad and Apple TV?

    I want to scan photo album my grandparents to share with my friends and family. I scanned a few pages of test at 3200 x 2000 pixels. They have look great on my Mac and look great on an iPad also. I want to future proof them for 4 k and recent televisions.

    Is the size of 3200 x 2000 pixels too small, too large or OK?

    If you want to transfer photos using iCloud shared Albums, photo sharing, they will be transferred from smaller - the edge long will be at maximum 2048 pixels, unless they are panoramic.

    I would scan the photos to a pixel size you want to keep for reference, so you can print them in a format you like - 4000 x 3000 pixels or more, and when you share with iCloud, sharing photos they will be slightly reduced in any way.

  • "Support for Shared iPad in iOS 9.3.

    In the description for the GarageBand 2.1.1 iOS update, I see one of the items listed is "Support for Shared iPad in iOS 9.3.»

    Out of curiosity, what it means exactly? What this has to do with the support of several users to create GarageBand projects on the same iPad? Or, in this same sense, it has to do with school education new features introduced in iOS 9.3?

    He was a frequently requested feature by music teachers to be able to have several students use the same iPad, but not in order to remove the songs from GarageBAnd created other students.

    With Shared iPad all students will be able to download specific projects and content at the beginning of the class and use the iPad with the own AppleID. "t-for-students-new-classroom-app http://appleinsider.com/articles/16/01/11/ios-93-for-ipad-adds-multi-user-suppor".

    I couldn't find details on the new version of GarageBand, but I hope that the support for Shared iPad means that students can save their projects on the Apple ID own and restore them directly before the start of the class.

  • ICloud BIG problem of sharing photos!

    Hello

    My albums of shared photo stream are all grayed out. I restarted my iPhone and I tried waiting, but it simply doesn't. What should I do? I have so many pictures on it. I really need help, someone please help!

    Even some of my photos from camera roll are gray. There's the funniest photos I erased yesterday who were in my photo stream are appearing and everything else is all gray and I cannot access the pictures.

    It's a huge problem, I have enough storage on my phone too. I don't know what the problem is. My iphone 6 has been trolling with photos and it broke down a few times too. If anyone can help me, I would be really grateful.

    Log on to https://www.icloud.com and see if your photos are available

    If they are - try to reset the connection on the phone iCloud

    Sign up for iPhone

    Disconnect from the iCloud

    Do a forced reboot - after all open applications using the app Chooser - invoked by fast double pressing the home button and drag upwards on each app until it disappears from the screen.

    Meet the sleep/wake and home buttons down until you see the logo  - then release and allow normal start upward

  • Add photos programmatically to a shared photo album?

    I have pictures from several sources on our network that I would have automatically redistributed to albums different shared photo in iCloud. I thought it would be a simple Automator application, and there are - save for the part "shared photo album. I can ingest photos added in a directory and put them in an album, but not an album shared; options for available records show that the albums, nothing icloud.

    I also checked the AppleScript (including photosautomation.com) libraries, nothing helps. I also checked the documents of the OS X Developers' and found nothing obvious.

    Any ideas on how I can do this? Is there a library I'm dominant, or maybe an app that will do that for me already?

    Thanks in advance,

    Aaron

    Photos cannot be automatically added to a shared album.  They must be added manually.

    Tell Apple what missing features you want restored or new features added in Photos Photo-Applefeedback.

  • My iPod touch 6 says that I used GB 7.3 on pictures of my shared photo streams, yet I barely have pictures and has not implemented the sharing.

    I have 114 MB of storage due to my photos app space. When I click on 'Storage & use iCloud', it shows that I have used 7.1 GB in the photos, and I have only 25 photos and videos in all. It is said that the majority of data is used my my "flow of shared photos", but I never set up who.

    Check how much storage you had when you got the iPod.  It could just be a few pictures noted a greater percentage of your storage space.

  • Family sharing Photos folder

    My family has been using the family sharing services, including sharing photos. For some reason, the record is without a name and I can't understand how to change the default folder name. I can change the name of all other photos shared folders, but the family share one seems I have changed. Is it possible to change the name of this folder?

    The shared album 'family' is created automatically and will be always called 'family '. You cannot rename. If you want the names of various shared albums, create the shared manually album and name yourself and invite the members of the family for the album yourself.
