Use My Photo Stream to import your most recent photos from devices that don’t use iCloud Photo Library. My Photo Stream keeps your last 30 days of photos in iCloud so you can import them to your Mac.
To use My Photo Stream, you need an iCloud account.
Choose Photos > Preferences, then click iCloud.
Select the My Photo Stream checkbox to turn on My Photo Stream. To turn it off, deselect the checkbox.
Important: If you have My Photo Stream turned on and you’re not using iCloud Photo Library, photos from My Photo Stream appear in the My Photo Stream album in Albums view. If you’re using iCloud Photo Library, you won’t see a My Photo Stream album—all your photos will be added to the All Photos album.
Click Albums in the toolbar, then double-click the My Photo Stream album.
Do any of the following:
Select the photos you want to delete, then press the Delete key.
Control-click the photos you want to delete and choose Delete from My Photo Stream.
Important: Deleting a photo from My Photo Stream deletes it from any other Mac or device that uses My Photo Stream.
