Can someone technical please help?

Since updating my ipad to the latest IOS system, I seem to have lost the photo stream option in photos, so any pictures taken on my iphone & stored in the cloud cannot now be accessed on my ipad.

As far as I can see, the cloud options for the photos have been enabled in settings, but I can't see a way to access these photos.

Have I missed something obvious?

Works fine for me.

Photos > Albums (bottom right) > Photostream (scroll up if required).

Thanks Graham, but although I have the photos>albums, the photostream bit is missing. I've scrolled up and down, but it's not there.

Bit dumbfounded, as it was fine before the IOS upgrade

Yep Mine's the same

Photostream option missing.

Try this:

Settings > iCloud (in the bar with your name/icon) > iCloud > Photos > disable 'iCloud Photo Library' & make sure 'My Photo Stream' is enabled.

In icloud>photos, there is no option to 'disable icloud photo library'

I've already made sure that 'my photo stream' is enabled. In fact, all the settings have been disabled, then re-enabled, but to no avail - photostream is still missing

Thanks anyway for your help Graham, appreciated

Go and look on your phone, not your iPad.

iphone is set up correctly. Also, if I take a photo with the ipad, the iphone receives it via photostream, but it still won't work the other way around

Will have to assume that the fault is in the upgrade, (as it's not just me with the problem)

Anybody else experiencing this?

Gone are the days when I upgrade to a new version of iOS immediately. There are too many problems with early versions so I now wait.

[GrahamB]

It does work.

I’ve just taken a photo on each of three devices (an iPad Air, an iPad Pro and an iPhone 6s) and in each case I watched the photos appear in the photo stream on the other devices. In one case it took a couple of minutes, though.

If you are out and about, images won’t transfer over 4G, and they’ll queue up until the respective device is on a WiFi network.

I'm using fibre optic broadband at the moment...

Photostream is simply 'missing' off my ipad after the last update.

Only thing to do, it seems, is to wait until the next update, & hope that fixes the issue.

[GrahamB]

Is your iPad logged in to your iCloud account?

If it's any help, all my devices are set like this:

Graham, you are a genius!

I disabled icloud photo library, as per your screenshot, & left the other settings as they were.

IT WORKED!!

Thank you

just as a coda: when I saw the thread title I thought "When in a cloud it is probably not the best time to do aerial photography"
