How to send photos from your iPad on the web via iCloud?

Last Updated :

iCloud Photo Sharing allows you to invite a group of friends and family to a shared stream. Once the group is created, you can share individual photos and videos to everyone in the group.
  1. Set up your iCloud account. iCloud is a cloud storage and cloud computing service offered by Apple Inc. By default, you get 5GB free space on iCloud.
    - If you are using a Mac, make sure to update it to OS X 10.7.2 or later.
    - For your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, use at least iOS 5.
    - On Windows, you will need to have an Apple ID. If you do not have one, you can always create one with Apple. Once you have created an account with Apple, you can download iCloud for Windows.
  2. Sign in to your iCloud account. To share pictures via iCloud, you need to be logged in to your account.
    - For Macs, open “System Preferences” from the Apple Menu. Then select “iCloud”, which you will find under the Networking section.
    - For iOS devices, tap “Settings”. Then tap “iCloud”.
    - Sign in with your Apple ID.
    - Accept the EULA.
    - Choose which apps you wish to sync with iCloud. Tapping the “ON” switch helps you choose the types of data you want to sync with iCloud.
    - Tap on “Apply”. This saves your changes.
  3. Access Pictures from iCloud. Using Photo Stream and Apple iCloud, you can access your photos on a Mac, an iOS device or a Windows PC.
    - On a Mac, select “System Preferences”. You will find this in the main Apple Menu. Then click the “Photo Stream” checkbox.
    - On your iOS device, open “Settings” from the Home screen. Tap “iCloud”. Tap the toggle to turn it on.
    - For your Windows PC, download and install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows. Then sign-in with your Apple ID.
  4. Enable both Photo Stream and Shared Photo Stream. This will allow you to view photos that other people share with you.
    - For your Mac and Windows PC, click Options. Then enable both “Photo Stream” and “Shared Photo Stream”.
    - For your iOS device, open the Photos app. Tap the “Photo Stream” button. You will find this at the bottom of the screen.
  5. Share your iCloud pictures on social networks. Once you successfully configure iCloud sharing, you can easily share your pictures on your social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and so on.
    - Sign-in to the social network account of your choice.
    - Open iPhoto on your device.
    - Tap the photo, album or event you wish to share.
    - Tap the Upload icon.
    - Select the social network of your choice.
    - Tap Post. This will publish your post onto the social network of your choice.
  6. Publish your iCloud pictures on the Web. iCloud allows you to publish and share Web journals and iPhoto slideshows as well.
    - Select your Web journal.
    - If you wish to share a slideshow, tap “Projects”. Then select the iPhoto slideshow you wish to share.
    - Tap the Upload icon.
    - Tap iCloud.
    - Tap to enable Publish to iCloud.
    - Tap to enable Add to Home Page. This will list your Web journal or slideshow on a Home page.
    - Note the link to the published iPhoto Web journal or slideshow.
    - You can share the link either via a message, on your social networks, email it, or copy it on another app.
Note : 
All of the above will require you to login to your iCloud account.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug! Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
