[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1780423, member: 396914"] Your post has several confusing areas, to me. Can you clarify the following? 1. You gave the setup on your iPhone, but then said you took a picture with your iPad. Which is it? 2. You talked about Photos and iPhoto. Two different apps. Which is it? In any case, if you and your wife have two separate iCloud accounts, then the only way to share photos between them may be to open a Family Share. Here is Apple's documentation on that: [url]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201088[/url] From a quick read fo that article, I don't know how photo sharing actually works. The article saidI don't know if that sharing is automatic, or you select image by image. What is certain, is that Apple will keep your two accounts separate until and unless you take some action. That's how it works. I have also noted that when I turned on iCloud for pictures that it took a while for the pictures to get in sync and that the message about downloading/uploading pictures seems not to go away right away, even though the images are actually transferred. But eventually it did disappear from my iPad and iPhone. [/QUOTE]
