Displaying many pictures on photo stream

I have uploaded nearly 600 pictures to

show as screensaver or slideshow.      The pictures actually displayed seems significantly smaller.       

Are there any limitations on pictures shown?

thanks!

Re: Displaying many pictures on photo stream

Thanks for the prompt response.

A couple of additional notes:

In the stream, there are 517 photos.     When I look at them with my iphone or ipad, only the first 100 are shown.

I see no error, just that many of the photos are not shown.    It also seems that other times different ones are, but they still cycle on a smaller number than the 517.

I can try what you mentioned.    

Is there any way to tell the memory available?

thanks,

 

Mabry

Hi @Mabrydozier,

Thanks for following up.

As mentioned in the previous post, there is a possibility that you have exceeded your storage limit, and Photo Streams will only allow 100 photos.

Please keep us posted if you need further assistance or clarification.


Best regards,
