Waters said:My photo stream is turned on for icloud, why does it say no photos on photostream?
Waters said:Yes, it's turned on in photo settings & iCloud. But my pics are not being sent to iCloud..? I was hoping iCloud would send them to my iPhone.. What am I doing wrong?
Waters said:Thanks for that; I've got current photo's streaming between machines now. But how do I move older ones from iPad to iPhone?

twerppoet said:You can not run iCloud on an XP computer. If you have Vista or Windows 7 you need to download and install the iCloud control panel.
Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
If you are on a Mac, you'll find the settings in the System Preferences.
Photo Stream is only supposed to work wiht photos that you take or add your device after Photo Streaming is activated. It if older photos are syncing, it's a fluke. It does not exactly add the new photos to your device.
Photos left in Photo Stream will disappear after 30 days, or get pushed off the end if you have more than 1000 photos.
If you want to keep a Photo Stream photo on your device permanently you must copy.
The exception is your computer. The computer program you use Photo Stream with is supposed to keep the photos indefinitely, even after they are deleted on the iCloud side. I'm not certain about this last. The behavior may vary depending on the computer app and settings.
So it's not supposed to put old ones on? Then that's weird that I got all of mine from my phone, which was a big headache for me. all 600 odd photos.
Good to know the other info...thank you once again.
