Hi everyone. Just got the newest apple tv. I'm having trouble with photo stream. All my ipad and iphones devices as well as computers sync the max 1000 photos by one icloud account. But the apple tv photo stream only shows 72 pics from the photo stream collection.

Is this a bug or is photo stream on apple tv limited.

Thanks

It's correct.

It's only showing for the month of March.

So the way Photostream works is that it shows all the photos for the last 30 days up to 1000 photos. So if you've had photo stream turned on say an iPod touch since it launched - you would have all the months and up to 1000 photos. But since you just now turned it on for the appletv - it's pulling x amount of photos for the month of march.

I don't know how to manually force it to pull photos from February/Jan, etc - but any photos you take from now on - March, April, May, etc will show up just fine
