Photos on ICloud

I have an air mac, iPad and iPhone - my photos on iPad and iPhone are accessible on both platforms however iMac photos are not syncing to iPad and iPhone.


I have tried just about everything that is suggested online to no avail.


Would love some help please.


TIA

What are your iCloud Photos settings on each device?


To be clear, photos will not sync from your Mac to your iPad and iPhone.


Photos from the Mac will sync to iCloud and then your iPad and your iPhone will sync to Icloud.


It sounds like your Mac may not be set correctly.


Phots > Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Photo Library is checked.
