Using MacBook Air with OS X Yosemite version 10.10.5 & iPhone 6s. Have several shared photo albums on iCloud, created using Photos on the laptop. Recently, photos added by me on my laptop do not appear in the shared album on that same device, but do appear on the phone. Other users are able to view the photos.
To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question. With the new upgrade to Photos, I can no longer see the shared albums that I have with my friends and family. The albums are still visible on my iPhone and iPad, but not on my Mac. Where are they? Is it requiring me to sign up for iCloud storage in order to get to my shared albums??
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Close the Photos app. Tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos. Turn off Shared Albums. Tap OK. Go back to the Home screen. Tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos. Turn on Shared Albums. Go back to the Home screen. Open Photos and tap the Albums tab. Tap the name of the Shared Album.
Why are my shared photos not showing up?
When I first open the Photos app and try to get into Shared, it says “Connecting to Library… Retrieving latest photo sharing activity”, but it never gets past this screen. Eventually it just changes to the generic screen that has the button that says “Start Sharing”, but none of my already shared albums ever load.
